Chapter 2440: The World of Huazhou

When there is a blue sky, the sea looks particularly peaceful.

Waves push towards the shore, and the crystal clear seawater rushes onto the beach from slow to fast, then quickly becomes thinner and slowly recedes.

But on the way back, the next wave comes again, and the two waves in opposite directions gently collide with each other, and the momentum of the back wave is slowly weakened.

Some strange creatures on the beach are desperately trying to drill down, and when they get in, they can only see small holes, and then they are covered by the sea.

A bare foot stepped on a small hole, and the big foot left, and the small hole no longer exists. Later, it began to wriggle below, and then a small crab crawled out stealthily, and just when the wave hit it, it was rushed to the front.

The wave receded, and the little crab wanted to dig a hole and drill into the beach.

A big foot stepped down, and the little crab subconsciously raised its claws...

Chen Rujing raised his right foot, found the unyielding little crab in the fine yarn at the bottom of his foot, and flicked it out casually.

"Damn it! Even a crab is bullying people!" Chen Rujing's face was tanned and his hair was messy. He didn't have the temperament of the highest official of the Ming Dynasty stationed in Huazhou at all. Liu Ercai, the thousand-household official in front, turned around and said, "Sir, what's good about this damn place? It takes five years to rotate once, it's deadly!" Another thousand-household official Jiang Xian dragged behind, looking for those small holes to step on, while stepping on them, he cursed "Step on you to death! Suffocate you to death". Chen Rujing said with a straight face: "What bullshit! There must be spies from the Jinyiwei or the East Factory among those immigrants. If these complaints are heard, when we return to the Ming Dynasty in five years, none of us will be promoted." Liu Ercai sighed: "Those immigrants are living a peaceful life, farming and having children all day long, but we can only guard here and have to farm. What kind of army is this?" "The Ming Dynasty's army used to farm." Chen Rujing himself made mistakes in the army and was kicked to Huazhou. "It is said that this is the fief of His Royal Highness the King of Han, but where is His Royal Highness?"

Jiang Xian caught up and chattered: "Sir, before we came out, the court's attitude towards the vassal kings was not very good. It is possible that His Royal Highness will not be able to come out in the future, and will only rule Huazhou remotely, just like the former Tang Dynasty."

"You have improved, did you learn from Wu Wenqian?"

Liu Ercai just picked up a big shell and found it was a dead thing, so he threw it away.

Chen Rujing said with a sullen face: "Wu Wen is a civil servant in charge of immigration. He is at least a sixth-rank official. You can't wait for him. Otherwise, if he lets go, who will take care of those immigrants?" Jiang Xian nodded and said: "Especially the first batch of immigrants, they are either robbers or beggars, and there are many scoundrels. Those exiled officials are unwilling to come out to teach, and it's a mess!" Chen Rujing stroked his beard that was messed up by the sea breeze and said in a deep voice: "This is not up to them. Go back and tell them that if they don't work hard, they won't have food to eat. It's okay for them to be tough guys, but their wives and children will starve with them!" Jiang Xian licked his lips and said: "Sir, take a few prisoners, put The women have been divided, give me one, otherwise I will be suffocated and go crazy.

Liu Ercai also instigated: "Yes! Sir, you have dealt with those families. If you don't give me women, I will want to pounce on the crocodile when I see it."

Chen Rujing scolded: "Then go quickly, damn it! The leather armor of the crocodile is very hard, you go and try it."

Seeing that the two men were a little frustrated, Chen Rujing said: "They are all suffocated, otherwise go find those women yourself."

"Sir, it's black and ugly, who would be willing!"

"It's the same when the lights are turned off at night!"

The three left a few footprints on the beach, then put on shoes and went all the way to the settlement.

Turtle Town, I don't know who gave this name, but because this piece of land protruding from the sea looks like a big turtle, everyone agrees.

After passing through a large forest, there is a wide area in front of you, with countless houses densely arranged in an orderly manner.

These houses are all brick houses,

Looking carefully, they are actually the same style as the buildings in the Ming Dynasty.

All the houses were built according to the planning of the city of Daming, the streets were well organized, and there were even people patrolling the streets.

If it weren't for the slight smell of the sea brought by the sea breeze, Chen Rujing almost thought that he had not moved at all and was still enjoying the good life in Daming.

It was winter, but during the day it felt like the autumn of Daming, with clear and crisp weather.

The grain had been harvested, and adults and children had nothing to do, so the adults rested at home and the children played on the streets.

"Hello, adults."

Several men sitting in front of their homes basking in the sun saw Chen Rujing and the others coming, and they didn't get up, but lazily bowed and finished their business.

This is the overseas fief of the vassal king of Daming. Before Zhu Gaoxu came, this was the overseas province of Daming.

The early immigrants were all bad people, and they knew that there was a shortage of immigrants here, so the government would not manage them too strictly, so they put away their awe of officials.

The later immigrants followed suit, so the authority of the officials was greatly reduced.

A group of children were playing in front of them. They lowered their heads and didn't notice Chen Rujing and the others, so they just ran over.

"Get lost!"

A man lying in the sun nearby shouted, and the children noticed Chen Rujing, and then ran away.

Only a little girl fell to the ground. She looked up timidly at Chen Rujing who was walking over, and then she started crying.

Chen Rujing squatted down, and the men who were basking in the sun stood up slowly, their faces gloomy.

Chen Rujing picked up a hat made of coconut shells and put it on the girl, then said: "Your leg is broken, go home and let your parents apply medicine for you."

The little girl's calf was scratched on the ground and was bleeding.

She looked up at Chen Rujing, tears still hanging on her face, but a smile appeared impatiently.

Chen Rujing touched her head and then picked her up.

The men waited for them to leave before returning to their own places, either sitting or lying down.

After a long time, the man who had previously reminded the children murmured: "There is no city, what is this? This is to survive and die!"

The mood on the street gradually became low.

In the hearts of the Chinese, the city is their own fortress, and life surrounded by city walls is safe.

Without city walls...

That is the barbarian people!

This is a quiet place, this is a lazy afternoon.

Three days later in the morning, a small fleet landed.

A group of new immigrants stood blankly on the dock, looking at a group of people and soldiers on the shore, and felt as if they had come to another world.

A eunuch came ashore, and before he could even stand still, he shouted: "The emperor has an order!"

Wu Wen was wearing an official uniform, and was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and then said: "Eunuch, this is a foreign land, why don't you go to our place to announce the order, at least let those people know that the emperor has not forgotten them."

The eunuch felt that his body was floating, so he nodded and said: "Okay."

Wu Wen felt relieved, and whispered to the clerk beside him: "Hurry up and tell Lord Chen that the order has come."

Chen Rujing and others don't like to manage civil affairs, so they will shirk such things as receiving materials and immigrants and let Wu Wen handle it.

The eunuch got a horse and sat on it, swaying.

When they arrived at the gathering point, Chen Rujing had already set up the incense table with people.

"Eunuch, I just took people to patrol to prevent the natives from causing trouble, so I didn't go to greet you, I deserve death."

Being away from the Central Plains means being away from the power center. In the past, Chen Rujing would not say that he deserved death, as he felt ashamed, but now he said it naturally.

The eunuch who delivered the decree laughed and said, "Ignorance is not a crime, but are the natives here really a big trouble?"

This question was very sharp, and Chen Rujing felt embarrassed. "Not really, but God has the virtue of loving life, so most of us here use courtesy before force, and it is best to live in harmony."

The eunuch nodded, then put on a serious face, and Chen Rujing quickly stepped back and knelt.

The people all knelt down, and it was a dark mass.

"The Emperor, in accordance with the will of Heaven, decrees..."

There was nothing special about the decree. First, the emperor greeted the immigrants and the soldiers stationed here, and then talked about the current situation of the Ming Dynasty.

The situation of the Ming Dynasty was of course very good, so the eunuch's reading was also particularly powerful.
