Chapter One Thousand and Six: The Voyage Diary of a Learned Man, Opening Up the Prosperous Southern Coast!
"At the end of April, the Kingdom's second support fleet, consisting of ten large longships, seven hundred warriors and sailors, finally arrived at Whale Harbor after a long voyage of four to five months! Leading this fleet was the Kingdom
There are two second-level divine priests, Ke Yuan and Ke Jie. Judging from their surnames of 'Ke-Lang', we know that they were born as civilian priests in the kingdom..."
"Witness the Lord God! I remember that they, like me and Zuvalo, were all the first batch of graduates of Shenwei University! Their astronomy, calendar and mathematics were almost the best in that batch, better than Zuvalo and I
They were both good at it, so they joined the Shenqi Institute in the royal capital. Unexpectedly, even the two of them tried their best to join the kingdom’s sailing fleet... Haha! They handed the robes of the third-level priests to me and my ancestors.
Varro, and then bowed his head to salute us two. Seeing the complicated and unspeakable expressions on their faces, I really wanted to throw my head back and laugh!…"
"Well, we are all common people, all from the navigation system, and all graduated from the same period. The relationship is actually very close... Only in the newly created kingdom's navigation industry, can we, the priests who graduated from Shenwei University, surpass those
A traditional priest with profound qualifications and aristocratic blood has gained a rare dominance!…”
"At this far north cape, the fleet docked at the port. The warriors and sailors raised bonfires and had a hearty meal. There was enough whale meat! Ke Yuan and Ke Jie also brought some spices and agave.
Wine. We grilled barbecue, drank wine, and talked for a long time..."
The sky was getting dusk, and dark clouds were rising in the east. The sun was setting in the west, and the sun was slowly hanging on the sea. Mikey, the knowledgeable man, looked at the horizon and the promontory in the evening, as if he had returned to the party that night,
Prayers and songs in various accents were heard.
"God bless you! When the Kingdom's support fleet set off from Trout Town at 18 degrees north latitude, it had nearly 700 people, but when it arrived at Whale Harbor at 48 degrees north latitude, it turned out to be more than 700 people. Along the way
, the support fleet continued to leave manpower at various kingdom strongholds, and recruited tribes from various strongholds, especially the young men who had converted from the northern ports. This was done, on the one hand, to increase the population ratio of the various ports and the kingdom headquarters.
, on the other hand, it is also for the sake of the health of the warriors and sailors to avoid diseases as much as possible. Because the sailing divine priests have concluded a rule, that is, it is best for the warriors and sailors of the kingdom to stay in the north.
The various strongholds in the land must first adapt to the previous year before they can be more safely transferred to the far north..."
"Ke Yuan, Ke Jie has been sailing for so long and was very excited to see the spectacular and divine sights along the way. They took me and Zuvalo and talked about the prosperity and expansion of ports in the south while drinking heavily.
!…”
"There are more than 500 tribes in Xihe Village at 22 degrees north latitude, and they trade with several Huierqiao tribes for tin mines in the upper reaches of the Xihe River. The Huierqiao people speak the same language as our plateau tribes and have been living in the harsh wilderness.
Migrating everywhere. When the kingdom built a village at the mouth of the river and showed itself as a "giant tribe in the lake", several small tribes came to join them! However, the Huilqiao people were not good at farming and were better at hunting and killing.
The support fleet is in Xihe Village, leaving behind warrior sailors from fifty kingdoms, and also replenishing the first batch of Huierqiao sailors..."
"In Yushan Village at 24 degrees north latitude, there are more than 1,000 tribes and a small temple of the main god has been built. It can be renamed Yushan Town. The Tuotomei tribe here is relatively docile and is very good at fishing. In the main god
Under the guidance of the priests, their farming skills improved rapidly. As the kingdom established a stronghold, spread the faith of the main god, and brought more goods from the south, some tribes from deep inland would come along the river.
The kingdom’s stronghold trade. And some very small tribes, after hearing the conditions for the kingdom’s acceptance of tribes, often choose to convert and join the settled ‘giant tribes in the lake’...”
"The fleet replenished a batch of food and salt in Yushan Town and saw the Tara people from the wilderness who came from the mountains to trade. These Tara tribes have a lot of gold and silver nuggets in their hands. There must be many gold and silver nuggets in their hunting territory.
There are large gold and silver mines... But their location is too far into the wilderness, and the kingdom is not short of gold and silver, so it has little interest in the barren lands in the mountains..."
"Praise the Lord God! The town of Leijin at 26 degrees north latitude is the most prosperous and huge settlement of the kingdom in the north! This town converted from the large Yorem tribe currently has a population of 4000-5000
On a human scale, it can mobilize more than a thousand kingdom warriors and tribesmen to fight! ...The chief priest of Songbird focuses almost all his energy on the farming, preaching and construction of Leijin Town. He relies on his proximity to the struvite stone
Taking advantage of the archipelago, he promoted this natural fertilizer in the fields along the river in Leijin Town, and achieved a divinely inspired increase in production, which was worshiped by the surrounding tribesmen. During the off-farm time, he organized the tribesmen to dig canals and build
A small reservoir to store precious rainwater during the rainy season..."
"In Leijin Town, Shenqisu has opened a pottery workshop, brick kiln, and bronze smelting station, which can produce small quantities of bronze wares. And outside Leijin Town, there are flint coal mines, copper mines and
Gold mine... The songbird priest found Ke Yuan and Ke Jie, and made a tempting proposal: to gather all the warriors of the kingdom's fleet, recruit the tribesmen of Leijin Town, and conquer the approximately 27 degrees north latitude in one fell swoop.
Mei Da tribe, thereby controlling tens of thousands of tribes within hundreds of miles in the north!…”
"Ke Yuan, Ke Jie hesitated for a long time, but still refused. After all, their first priority is navigation and exploration... According to the news I sent back before, the support fleet replenished more than 200 tons of flint in Leijin Town. These flints
More than half of them, especially those that burn with little smoke, come from the large tribe of Yome in the north. Lord God! The ancestral land of the Yaqui people, which is rich in flint, is really impressive! Well, wait for the priests of the kingdom
, and after one or two more years of preaching among the Yaqi tribes, it should be almost done..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The fleet was fully loaded with flint needed by the North, leaving Leijin Town and arriving at the southwestern peninsula, Nantorishi Village at 24 degrees north latitude. The population here is now more than 600
People, mainly miners who excavate struvite. Shenqi established a special struvite station and stationed two priests and warrior captains to manage the excavation of struvite here. The kingdom has a strong interest in this struvite archipelago.
Development is given great importance. It is said that after these ordinary-looking struvite stones are transported to the two southern counties of the kingdom, every ton of struvite stone can be turned into at least four to five tons of increased grain production!…
Lord God! This is really the stone of life given by the Lord God, and it has the divine power to grow crops!"
"God bless you! Every autumn and winter, the kingdom's merchant fleet comes here once to transport away all the excavated struvite and enough food for five hundred people for a year. The precipitation here is really too low.
There have been less than two rains. Therefore, the locally grown sweet potatoes can only be said to be better than nothing. They cannot meet the food needs of more than 500 people. Food must be transported from Leijin Town to supplement... The surrounding Kochimi tribe has a very sparse population.
, almost all the small tribes that can be recruited by the kingdom have been recruited. They are the fishermen of this settlement and can bring back a lot of catches..."
"Compared with South Bird Rock Village, North Bird Rock Village, which also has struvite, is much worse. When the fleet arrived at this village at 28 degrees north latitude, located on the west side of Long Island, they discovered that there were only
There are less than 200 people, and most of them are converted Kochimi fishermen... I think that is the starting point of the west coast. Only when the ports on the west coast develop, will this North Bird Rock Village have the possibility to prosper and develop!
