Chapter 631 There is a vast continent south of the South Ocean

In the first month, Hou Sheng's fleet floated in the ice cubes on the sponge and sailed extremely slowly.

Later, Hou Sheng ordered all ships to be connected together with iron chains.

It took a lot of effort to gather the power of dozens of ships to leave that nightmare place.

After that, they sailed on the sea for more than a month.

Although there has always been a vast sea around, the gradually warmer weather has calmed down the crew.

The crew members who went to sea with Hou Sheng were all those who had been with him in their early years, and they were all experienced veteran sailors.

They were used to floating on the sea and could be said to be the most experienced seamen in the Qin Dynasty.

Hou Sheng never doubted their ability to regulate their mentality.

Even so, he knew that the ability of these people to withstand has reached a critical point.

Thinking of this, Hou Sheng couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He gently peeled off the prawn in his hand, stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Turning his head and looking behind him, the crew members were gathering around a big fish that was ten feet long, holding a dagger to cut meat and grill.

After leaving America, they completely cut off their supply sources.

Now the fleet has reached the point where the ammunition and food are exhausted.

Hou Sheng walked past the barbecue pile, waved his hand, rejected the crew's kindness to invite him to have a meal together, and then quickly walked into the cabin.

Back at his own house, Hou Sheng closed the door and confirmed that there was no one outside, he carefully pulled out a box from under the bed.

When he opened the box, he took out a small ball from it, which was a delicate globe.

This globe was a gift from Zhao Kun before Hou Sheng followed Fusu to America.

Funny, it was this globe that made him give up his huge interests in America and resolutely decided that Zhao Kun would let him continue to explore unknown places.

When he was on the Antarctic Island, he did not choose to return to America.

It is because on this globe, there is a place marked, a giant island larger than several Guanzhong.

After sailing on the sea for a year, Hou Sheng's fleet has proved that what Zhao Kun said before has not been false.

Therefore, Hou Sheng would resist the opposition and lead the fleet to continue to travel east, and then turn north.

According to the distance marked on the globe, at this time, they should have almost reached that giant island.

Hou Sheng's calloused right hand kept rubbing the globe.

It seems that this will bring him good luck.

Suddenly, he felt a shock on his head.

Immediately afterwards, a slight noise came from outside that was higher than a wave.

Hou Sheng's face changed, and he quickly stood up and hid the globe as fast as possible.

Then he quickly stepped out of the cabin.

After sailing on the sea for a long time, people are under great mental pressure.

Although these crew members are all veterans.

However, those nightmarish experiences before made Hou Sheng unable to guarantee whether these crew members could suppress the restlessness in their hearts.

At sea, if the crew riots, the consequences will be even greater than those of the mutiny in the army.

Even if there is a mutiny in the army, even if it cannot be suppressed, at most some people will die.

But if the crew members riot at sea, then the entire fleet will most likely be alive.

Hou Sheng quickly walked onto the deck, but the scene in front of him stunned him.

On the deck, all the crew cheered to the fullest.

Many people raised their hands and pointed to the north. The look of ecstasy looked like they were rioting no matter how they looked.

Could it be?

Hou Sheng felt ecstatic.

He staggered, but at this time Hou Sheng could no longer care about his majesty as the leader of the fleet.

He rolled and crawled to the deck.

Immediately afterwards, Hou Sheng saw a scene that he would never forget for his life.

In the distance, an endless coastline is like a shadow and line in sight.

Hou Sheng took out his telescope and looked over there.

The place you see is a vast forest that is endless.

Hou Sheng could even see several strange beasts poking their heads in the forest.

He felt ecstatic.

"South of the South of the South Ocean, there is a vast continent. That place is comparable to the area of ​​summer, but it is isolated from the world and is deserted. When you find this place, I represent the Qin Dynasty and will definitely be rewarded."

Before leaving, Zhao Kun's words seemed to be in his ears.

Hou Sheng slowly closed his eyes.

Even though he had experienced countless strong winds and waves, he still felt his body trembling slightly in ecstasy.

In March, the Qin Dynasty.

After a long winter, the entire Qin Dynasty gradually returned to its busyness.

The farmland in Guanzhong is full of busy farmers.

In the second five-year development plan proposed by Zhao Kun, supporting agriculture is one of the most important parts.

As the Academy of Sciences increases its investment in agriculture, various new agricultural tools that save time and effort are continuously produced.

Spring plowing that used to require a lot of manpower has now become much easier.

In the past, the income source of the people in the Qin Dynasty could only be through farming.

The whole family went together and had to stay busy for a year, so they could only barely maintain food and clothing.

Today, ordinary people in Daqin have a variety of sources of income.

In a family, the elderly usually work at home.

Young and strong laborers go to factories to work.

As for the children, they will go to school to study.

This kind of day was even more than a decade ago.

Therefore, even if you are doing heavy farm work.

But I can still hear hearty laughter from the old farmers from time to time.

Occasionally, you can hear old farmers gather together and use the loud voices unique to Guanzhong people and talk loudly.

What they talk about is not about family matters, but about national affairs.

What are the Western Expedition Army winning consecutive battles in the Bendu Kingdom? What are the problems of delaying farming yesterday that His Majesty punished several county magistrates, and which county in the nearby opened a medical clinic.

After saying that, I would also attach a comment to you.

If the views are the same, everyone will naturally be happy.

If the views are different, there will be a quarrel about who has the loudest voice.

Zhao Kun rode his horse and rushed to Jiujun Mountain west of Xianyang.

The scenes he saw along the way always made him smile.

Today is the day for freshmen in the Daqin Academy to enter school.

After a year of development, the second enrollment of Daqin Academy is more standardized and larger than last year.

Today, as freshmen enter school, Kong Jing, the priest of Daqin Academy, strongly invited Zhao Kun to teach a class for the students of the academy.

This proposal has never been unanimously agreed by all schools in the academy.

Zhao Kun naturally knew the little abacus in these people's minds.

However, this was originally within his plan.

Therefore, as soon as Kong Feng made this request, he readily agreed.

On Jiujun Mountain, on the big square in the center of the Daqin Academy.

More than 2,000 students wearing blue robes specially made by the Daqin Academy stood with their hands behind their backs.

The teachers from each college are at the forefront of the students in their respective colleges.

The whole square was silent.
