The rainforest at the southern end of the peninsula covers an area of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. When Yang Song and the others turn to the east, there are still hundreds of kilometers away from the southernmost point of the peninsula.
Traveling eastward all the way, when Yang Song and the others came to the east coast, the time had come to the early summer.
Perhaps it is because it is located in the fringe area of Xia Country, and the seaports here are just some small ports, most of which are used for fishing at sea.
However, every coastal town in Xia State has a civil aviation service, which is convenient for people to travel by sea. After all, Xia State still has a large number of overseas territories.
The purpose of Yang Song this time is the various islands in the East China Sea, among which Feilong Island and Fugui Island in the eastern sea area of Qizhou are the most important.
Before Yang Song had moved his capital to Zhongjing City, there was a beautiful island on the East China Sea that served as his summer resort.
It’s just that after moving the capital, he never visited that island again, so this time he decided to drop in once—if he felt the heat and unbearable overseas.
The summer in Guannei is not so good, not to mention the unusually hot, rain is also very much-the ditches between the paddy fields in the southern plains can be used not only for irrigation, but also for flood discharge.
Yang Song and his entourage chartered a steam-powered passenger ship, and under Yang Xin’s guidance, they left their footprints on the islands in the East China Sea.
Because there are many islands in the East China Sea, Yang Song and the others can only choose some islands with some characteristics, but even so, Yang Song and the others stayed in the East China Sea for several months.
During these two months, Yang Song has seen the aloofness of islands and reefs, the strangeness of volcanic islands, and the customs of ordinary islands.
Stop and go, Yang Song and the others specially went to see the mine on Feilong Island. The struvite here was a great effort in the early days of the Xia Kingdom, and of course the original natives also made a contribution.
Although Feilong Island is no longer as important to Xia State as it did at the beginning, it still provides Xia State with a large amount of raw ore as fertilizer.
After years of development, Feilong Island is now an important place in the East China Sea, with a large population of people living on it. After all, Feilong Island still has a large area.
After leaving Feilong Island, Yang Song and his entourage continued northward and stopped for a while on Fugui Island, which is more than 100 kilometers northeast of the island.
Fugui Island is famous for being rich in gold, and there is also a large lizard that can be used as meat on the island-these are the results of the activities of the exploratory fleet led by Li Bao.
Xia’s currency system uses paper money. Although it is nominally linked to gold, gold is not used for market circulation, but only as a precious metal.
Xia Guo’s banknotes have a strict issuance model, which is issued based on data such as national productivity, currency demand, and foreign trade transaction volume.
The large lizards that can be used for food and breeding are no longer a specific species of Fugui Island. They have entered the market for a long time, and there are no longer a few that carry out large-scale breeding.
However, the value of Fugui Island is not only gold and newly discovered species, but also the island itself. The area of this island is also not small, covering nearly 10,000 square kilometers.
In addition, the location of Fugui Island is to the east of the Tianqi Mountain Range, which is also used as a maritime transit point between the customs and the Guanzhong.
Therefore, Fugui Island has a large population, and its economic development is much better than that of Feilong Island in the southwest.
After passing the Fugui Island, Yang Song and the others continued to sail north, and they could not see the huge Xia Guo for less than half.
Because it was a sea boat, the speed of going north was much faster than when going south, so before Yang Song and the others felt the heat of the south, they had already left the hottest area.
In this way, Yang Song didn’t go to the island where he had been in the past. Although he had already visited a lot in the past, it was still a small regret for him.
If you talk about regrets, Yang Song’s biggest regret is that he can’t visit every place in Daxia. After all, the territory of Xia Kingdom is still too big. Even if he spends his second half of his life to visit, it’s not enough for him to finish. .
…
Two days later, Yang Song and his entourage once again landed ashore from Linhai City in Guanzhong. Yang Song has visited this place quite a few times, but this is the first time he has landed directly from the sea.
Linhai City is located in the northeast of Zhongjing City, and the distance is not too far. The straight-line distance is more than 220 kilometers, and it only takes five hours to take the train.
Originally, Yang Song didn’t want to return to Zhongjing City and went to visit the northern part of Guanzhong directly, but Liu Ji and Li Jing still have their own families.
Now that they are all here and have been away from home for so long, Liu Ji and the others want to go home and have a look, and then set off with Yang Song.
Yang Song is not an unreasonable person. He also knows that people have a lot of ideas when they grow old. The importance of family members must be a very important part of their hearts.
So Yang Song went back to Zhongjing City with them once Yang Song, he also went back to the palace to see the two daughters, and the children and grandchildren-but the children and grandchildren did not get close to him, or say He didn’t dare to get close to him, this was a bit sad.
After staying in Zhongjing City for a month, Yang Song couldn’t bear the sense of urgency in his heart and asked Liu Ji and others to set off again, but this time there were fewer people willing to travel with him.
Some of the older guys have suffered a crime in the previous trip, and they will definitely not set off again this time. Even if they are willing, their younger generations will not.
Yang Song didn’t force it. He knew that traveling was not a relaxed and pleasant process that was just a matter of seeing the mountains and playing in the water. The hard work was still great.
In addition, they are all ages, and everyone’s physical differences exist objectively. It is impossible to lose their lives just because of a trip.
Therefore, this time, only Yang Song, Li Jing, Di Qing, Li Bao and other old men with good health were the only ones who were strong enough.
In fact, before this departure, Yang Xian and several other children came to persuade Yang Song to take care of his body and stop traveling.
But Yang Song knows his own situation, he is not too old to walk, and his goal has not been achieved yet, at least he has only traveled to the south in various places in Daxia.
Yang Xian also knew that Yang Song had decided that things could not be stopped, so he could only give up, letting Yang Song go on his journey, but sending some more people to ensure Yang Song’s travel.
When Yang Song set out again, he felt helpless when he saw a large group of people around him, including doctors and chefs, but he also knew that this was the filial piety of his children, so he let them go.
This time Yang Song decided not to finish his tour of Daxia, so he would not return to Zhongjing City!
