"My new territory needs to be taken by boat?" Carl was unwilling to talk to Hong Tao about this kind of issue, which was too tormenting.

"Nonsense, don't you want to be too hot, don't have too many mountains, and you have to be near the seaside! You can also pass through land, but it may take several months to walk, and it's still comfortable to take a boat. Let's go, the cabin, and say, "The rat, take your brother to grab the big helm wheel and play. Whoever grabs it will be the captain." On the deck, Hong Tao thought it was not safe. Before entering the cabin, in order to get rid of his two sons, the helmman became his scapegoat.

"Before I asked you to see the chart, I would spend another sentence. Are you sure you will always be on my side in the future, right? Once you look at my chart, you will have no chance to exit. I have only seen this picture. Do you understand its importance?" After getting into Carl's cabin, Hong Tao put down the box in his hand, opened it, and took out a roll of whale arch paper from it, but it didn't open it.

"You even plotted into Little Philip, and Carl Fort was occupied by Baron Jiang. Who else can I go? Open it quickly and let me see if the place you chose for me. If I don't like it, can I change it?" Without Hong Tao saying this, Carl also understood in his heart that he would definitely not be able to escape from Hong Tao's palm. According to his development context, Carl's role is getting bigger and bigger, and can such places be left to those who are worried? Moreover, Carl doesn't think that others can give better benefits to change his mind. He can't give up the positions of the emperor and the pope to himself, right?

Hong Tao expanded the map in his hand. This is a partition map of Central and North America, and most of the places are still empty. Part of the dividing line between land and ocean is inferred by Hong Tao based on the latitude and longitude of memory. If it is not accurate, it is marked with dotted lines. Some of them are drawn with solid lines, which are more accurate after specific measurements, such as the Bahamas, the California Peninsula, Cuba Island, and the eastern Gulf of Mexico.

"I don't recommend you change... If you insist on changing, I will give this place to Lao Mai's son. It's here, north of the entrance of the bay to south of the 39th degrees north latitude, west to the west of the Appalachian Mountains, all belong to you." Now Hong Tao picked up his pen again, and while saying that, he drew another dotted line on the map.

"Appalachian Mountains, Chesapeake Bay, James River, Kingdom of Virginia... What are the names? You named it? Didn't you say you haven't been here? Why do you even know about the mountains and rivers here? You even gave them a name!" Carl lay on the map and looked at his future land carefully, without expressing any comments, but had a lot of questions about the Chinese names marked on it.

"...I am not a god, so I naturally have fairy spirit on my body. It is worth making a fuss about some mountains, rivers and rivers? These names are for me to remember. God told me that, and I didn't say why I called it that way. Don't worry about it, just use it as a douche. Is it important to call it?" Faced with Carl's question of sufficient reasons, Hong Tao seemed more confident.

In fact, Hong Tao has been troubled by the place name for more than ten years. At the beginning, he tried to name it with his own set of names, and even wanted to change the starting point of the longitude and longitude. However, as more and more places were found on the map, he gave up this effort not long after.

The reason is very simple. These names have been deeply imprinted in his mind in later generations. If they are replaced with another name, they have to be familiar with it again. Many times, they cannot figure out where the new name is, and it is easy to forget and confused. In addition, Hong Tao has never been good at naming names. He can make do with ten or twenty. If he is asked to name hundreds of new names, he still has to remember where he is. He really doesn't have the ability to have a ready-made name. He has to create one by himself. Isn't this torture himself?

As for how to explain the origin of these names to others, Hong Tao was also worried at first, but later he figured it out. What to explain? He said whatever he wanted. Who was the first to discover it? Is it necessary to discuss with others? Who dared to go against him for this matter? What if it arouses their suspicion? The more mysterious it is, the more unreasonable it is, the more profound it makes people feel. Not only is there no harm, but it also benefits.

"I just think these names are more like Latin. Do you mean the gods you said? "Karl was a little overwhelmed by Hong Tao's habit of staring at and talking nonsense, and planned to call him.

"Not to say, your feeling is indeed quite accurate. Let me tell you the truth. These names are pronunciations of local natives. Some people in our country have been here before. They translated them in Latin, mainly for the sake of making a simple word." There was only one result of using this question to force Hong Tao, lies! More lies. And the final result either points to the continent that no one has been to and has been flooded by the sea, or point to the white-bearded old god. Anyway, don't plan to follow the clues and investigate.

"...Are you sure this place is good?" When Carl heard that Hong Tao even said the illusory sinking continent of the white-bearded old god, he immediately stopped asking. He knew that all he heard was lies, why did he ask?

"I believe in Hongtao and have eternal life! There are mountains, forests, fertile plains, rivers with abundant water, and such a large bay. Whether you are farming, mining, or building a ship, there are not many good places like this. The most important thing is that I use my head to ensure that there are natives here to catch them, and I have figured out a solution to the labor problem. I don't care so much about my own son, and are you still not satisfied?" Hongtao didn't tell any lies this time. Hongtao originally planned to keep this place for himself, but later he felt that Mexico's geographical location was more critical, so he endured the pain and gave up his love.

"If you really have what you said so well, why don't you come?" Carl would not believe that Hong Tao was so directed at him. The best place was sure that he wanted to occupy it himself, but he didn't understand why the plateau west of Sun City was more popular with Hong Tao than here.

"Hehehe... the secret of heaven cannot be revealed. I must leave some wealth for my descendants that I can't eat or drink. There is one in the Kingdom of Mexica, but you don't have it here! Don't stare. There is only one such place in the world. I have nowhere to find one for you, so just make do with it." Hong Tao doesn't want to say more about digging the canal now, so he can hide it as long as he can.

Is Virginia really as good as Hong Tao said? It's almost the same. At least in this era, it is a very rich, suitable for people to live in, and a very strategic place. This is not what Hong Tao himself believes. The British Empire and American imperialism have proved it to him in history.

This is the first settlement of British immigrants in the New World. Its name originated from the transliteration of Indian, but pure English. When the Spanish landed in Central America, they cheated and robbed a lot of gold and silver, which made the British on the poor island envious. The country could not care about it, and the British businessmen whose eyes turned into squares could not help but want to make a fortune in the New World.

But the New World is so far away, and the sea boats are not very safe. The rich don’t want to go, and those who have no money want to go and cannot afford the boat. So the two groups of people made do with it together. People with no money and courage boarded the ship of people with no courage and went to the New World to grab gold, and everyone distributed the interests according to the shares. The British king also mixed up and issued colonial permits to these people. One of them was called the Virginia Company, and the Mayflower was also one of these many expedition ships.

In fact, Mayflower was not the first British immigration ship to North America. It was much earlier than it. Human trafficking companies like Virginia Company were everywhere in the UK. However, the people on Mayflower formulated a "Mayflower Convention". It was this convention that made Mayflower a symbol of North American immigration and the foundation of all British colonial autonomy on the North American continent later, and even had a great impact on the later system of the founding of the United States.

Initially, British immigrants established eighteen settlements on the North American continent, but they did not persist. Only the settlements established on the James River developed well. After continuous attempts, they finally succeeded. In order to commemorate these pioneers, the immigrants of the settlements named the colony after the investment company, Virginia, and gave the river the name of the Emperor of the time, James.

Historically, the history of Virginia is the history of British immigration in the New World, and it is also the history of the founding of the United States. When the thirteen British colonies on the North American continent were independent, the war began here and ended here. During the Civil War, it was the capital of the Confederate. There were the Parliament Building and the Confederate White House in Richmond. It was also the state with the most fierce war. Many important battles were fought here.

The Pentagon of the US Department of Defense is here, the CIA headquarters is also here, and the largest naval base, Norfolk Military Harbor, is still here. In addition, there are Langley Air Force Base, Arlington National Cemetery, University of Virginia, Newport News Shipyard and other a large number of institutions that play an important role in the United States.

It is not enough to have historical events and important departments alone. There are many celebrities in this state. Among the Seven Sages of the Founding of the United States, Washington, Jefferson and Madison are all Virginians, and they are also the first, third and fourth president of the United States. There is also a tragic soldier, General Robert Lee, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Army, who is also a Virginian.

Hong Tao visited Virginia more than once in his previous life, where there were many ancient manors along the James River, most of which were built in the 18th century or even earlier. For example, the Jeffersons, the Relics Manors, the Adams, the General Li family, etc. At that time, Hong Tao spent a lot of effort and did not buy these ancient manors. In the hands of these descendants, they were no longer just a concept of houses and real estate. As long as they did not go bankrupt, they would not be sold for any amount of money. In addition, some historical attractions that were regarded as state-protected, and were also given for money.

Hong Tao himself felt very good about Jefferson. His epitaph was written as follows: Thomas Jefferson was buried here. He was the drafter of the American Declaration of Independence and the Virginia Religious Freedom Act, the founder and first president of the University of Virginia.

From this passage, we can only see a politician who has ideals and firmly implements it and a person who is keen on education. It is impossible to tell that he has also served as the president of the United States and did a very good job. During his tenure, the United States' land area almost doubled, and he also founded the Democratic Republican Party, which is the predecessor of the Democratic Party in later generations.

Hong Tao felt that as a country manager, doing his job well is not worth boasting, and he should pursue a higher level. This should be why Jefferson would rather carve the title of the university founder on the tombstone than carve the title of president. In the heart of this president, he did not regard being a president as a president as a matter of being too glorious, leaving his own thoughts and a school, which he felt was more meaningful.

Of course, there are also those who are doing poorly. The fifth president, James Monroe, is the one who proposed the Monroeism. After the presidential term expired, he went bankrupt and even sold his ancestral home. He had to move to his daughter's house to live.

In addition, Hong Tao is also very interested in Virginia's motto. It is very short and has only one sentence: always defeat the autocracy!
