When the Nanyang fleet came back, it naturally returned with a full load.

With the navy under Liu Ming's command, the group directly explored the Philippine Islands, and then went south to Indonesia for some exploration.

On that island, there are currently monkeys and there are no humans. There may be some so-called Kunlun slaves in four hundred years, but it is more appropriate to say that they are humans than to say that they are monkeys.

The climate in Southeast Asia is too good and there is no shortage of food. What is rare is that there are not many dangerous predators. In such an environment, monkeys basically don’t need to do anything to get rich food. Therefore, they only need to consider the issue of reproduction and no need to consider the issue of evolution.

But as the saying goes, "Evolution is forced out by war." When I logged in the last time, I met some similar indigenous people, and maybe I was not killed thoroughly. When I logged in this time, these guys had already gathered together. I think they also know that if there are fewer people, they will definitely die.

Learning to gather means that there must be a certain degree of management mechanism. More importantly, in this battle, there were stone throwing belts and stone tools in the opponent's lineup, which were not powerful, but they were considered weapons at all. These monkeys who only know how to eat and sleep, sleep and mate after eating, whoever has enough food has learned to arm themselves, or finally know that they have to do something else.

Even so, they still inevitably ended up being massacred. In front of the elite Han Navy, these guys were even worse than native chickens and tiles. At most, they were active targets for training for new recruits. Well, it would be better for those new recruits to see blood.

Liu Ming went to more than fifty ships, and the ones who came back were forty-three.

After all, Liu Ming was not responsible for navigation, so they will not only lose their direction, but will also be attacked by unknown organisms or viruses, and even the sea will be in danger of wind and waves.

But in general, the ending was still good. At least 80% of the ships were left and nearly 90% of the ships returned. As for how many people died and how many ships were destroyed by the other princes, it was not a question he needed to care about.

According to the list he listed, tropical plants were sent to Yazhou and Yizhou for planting. Only some species or animals that could adapt to the north would be brought back. However, the princes were not very interested in these things. They cared about gold and silver mines, gem mines, iron mines, spices and precious woods.

They didn't think about it. Now that purchasing power is declining, how many luxury goods can be consumed in the market? The more such things, the lower the price, the more gold prices can be sold at street prices.

But this is also good, at least the people can have the opportunity to buy some and enjoy it.

"Welcome back, our heroes." Liu Ming personally came to the port to welcome the return of the crew.

"It is our honor to come in my lord, but it is dangerous outside. I hope you won't take any more risks next time." When Gan Ning saw Liu Ming coming in, the three souls immediately lost two souls and came to him in three steps and said.

"It's okay to be at ease. I've cleared the situation and brought two Taoist priests here. It should be fine." Liu Ming also knew what he was concerned about. The last encounter was probably unforgettable to Gan Ning for the rest of his life.

"No matter what, be careful, by the way, lord, guess what I brought back this time." Gan Ning persuaded sincerely, and then asked excitedly.

"You probably won't say spices. After all, I believe this thing can be bought all over the country now. Since that's the case, it should be fruit." Liu Ming quickly thought of something.

"My lord is right, it is the southern special fruits. Most of the fruit trees we transplanted to Yazhou and Yizhou last time have survived. After adapting to the climate of the two places, they have produced the first batch of fruits this year. The Governor of the South China Sea took advantage of our return and asked us to take them back to you." Gan Ning knew that he could not hide it from Liu Ming, so he explained frankly.

"It's so good. I can't wait to eat it. I'll move it all down for me and hold a fruit feast tonight." Liu Ming laughed and signaled Gan Ning to take action immediately.

That night, after everyone had just used supper, they came to Liu Ming's banquet venue. As a result, when they looked around, the places where they could see were fruits, and they were all fruits they had never seen before.

"These are all fruits from the South China Sea, and I have asked someone to prepare some fruits from the north. You don't have to be polite, so I won't be polite or restricted tonight. Just eat and drink enough." Liu Ming waved his hand and took an open coconut directly, and drank the juice in it.

When Liu Ming got into the mouth of the sweet coconut juice, he immediately closed his eyes and felt the delicious food he hadn't drunk for a long time.

Many people didn't mean to be polite when they saw this, especially the two prodigal sons Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai. They were drinking coconut milk while eating bananas, and holding some rambutan in their arms.

Xi Zhicai didn't have an arm, but he found a close servant to assist him in his actions. According to his salary and the bonus given to him by Liu Ming, it would be no problem to raise such a servant. As a result, this guy now has three hands, whether it is eating or doing other things, it is much more convenient than others.

After all, the extra two hands do not need to use his brain, but the servant can understand the most perfectly what his master really needs.

Seeing Xi Zhicai's current enjoyment, Liu Ming couldn't help but wonder if this guy was used to enjoying it, he might have found a few more pairs of feet for himself. He would probably not need to walk at that time.

"Well, Zhicai, every morning you will have to run for half an hour... and take a walk for half an hour after dinner..." Liu Ming coughed gently and said to Xi Zhicai.

"Lord, there is no need to torture me so much." Xi Zhicai immediately cried.

"All of them are practitioners, so how can a little exercise be considered to be torture? Do you think I don't know yet that you and Guo Jia are getting lazy in their practice, but they are getting less and less resistant to women. If this continues, I am really worried that you will lose your life before you reach 65 years old." Liu Ming said angrily.

"Master, why do you count me?" Guo Jia was speechless.

"So, you also need to exercise. If you have any questions, you will only ask Xi Zhi to tell me." Liu Ming shrugged.

Guo Jia decisively looked at Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhicai was speechless and could only bow to him and apologize.

This fruit feast was pretty good.

The ministers like these Nanyang fruits very much. With everyone's lead, I am afraid that people in the territory will also accept these fruits. Even with the hard work of their advertising spokespersons, Nanyang fruits will soon form a trend in the entire Han Dynasty, at least in his territory.

In this way, in addition to growing rice and vegetables, the people of Yizhou and Yazhou have another road to getting rich. If you guide them, I believe that they can arrange to immigrate to each place for 50,000 or 60,000 people.

The two places will gradually become more fulfilled, and whether it is war or development, it will be smoother.

Population is not only related to the existence of the Chinese nation, but also directly related to purchasing power.

The princes are not fools. Even the most warlike Lu Bu will encourage childbirth in recent years. The increase in population by 20% in three years is the basis, and 35% on Liu Ming's side is the highest. Unlike other princes, Liu Ming's medical level has gradually improved. Delivery rooms have been set up in hospitals in various places to help local pregnant women give birth safely.

At the same time, we will also try our best to follow up after giving birth to ensure that the baby will not die due to various reasons within one year, except for force majeure.

If the family cannot afford to raise it, the foster care home set up by Liu Ming will be specifically responsible for arranging these children. However, they are equivalent to being labeled as the government since childhood. How to develop when they grow up is up to the government to decide who to marry... Cough... Who to marry has been abolished recently, after all, there are many disadvantages found to be found.

It takes sixteen years for a child to grow up to become a qualified labor force. The worst thing is that girls can do too few jobs, and the most depressing thing is that female newborns account for 65%, and the ratio of men and women is a bit unbalanced, which is not a good phenomenon.

In contrast, in the birth rate of Lu Bu in recent years, males account for 75%, and at least 25% of males are afraid of being a bachelor's degree in 16 years... The premise is that they can survive until that time. In the case of war, some people have calculated that the average life expectancy of Chinese men will not exceed 35 years.

The territory has been built almost the same now, and it is obvious that there is not much value or significance when going abroad to play.

Besides, China has not yet unified, and Liu Ming always feels uncomfortable.

So, he decided to go to Qingzhou and have a good talk with Lu Bu. Lu Bu is old and has at least passed his peak. As time goes by, his combat effectiveness will become lower and lower. However, he has not had a male heir so far, but he has added a few female students.

It's fun to say that most of the people under his rule have added males, but his subordinates have added females in recent years.

Others may be fine, but as a prince, he has no son who can inherit his power. This is a very dangerous thing. You should have a good talk with him. If possible, you can just come to Yecheng for retirement.

If not... the war is about to begin.
