Chapter 114 Joint Development

Chapter 114 Joint Development

Penglai Xiandao has appeared more than once in the thousands of years of history of this world, and in the literature and legends of many dynasties.

However, limited by shipbuilding technology, even if there are many emperors or folks who built boats and crossed the sea, trying to find the legendary Penglai fairy island and the elixir of immortality on the East China Sea, few of them succeeded and died in the violent wind and waves. Among them, there are countless.

However, Zhou Ming saw on the [World Map] in his mind that the so-called Penglai Fairy Island is just over a thousand kilometers east of the sea off Haiping County. Reachable, not very far.

And this Penglai fairy island has a very strange composition, as if it was a complete continent before, and the countless islands that were broken into it also look like a complete continent. Due to the movement of the earth's crust, it slowly sank into the bottom of the sea, and finally only revealed the rough terrain. high part.

And no matter how it was formed, Penglai Xiandao is like a plate, filled with tens of thousands of islands like pearls, large and small, and all kinds of islands. There are still 500 million square kilometers in area, which is equivalent to the Zhou Dynasty. one third of the country.

With such a large number of islands and vast sea areas, the Haipingtian family alone, a family with less than 2 clansman Zhuang Ding, can develop and colonize all of them. I am afraid that it will not be able to complete this task in another 100 years. Do your best to occupy a few larger islands at most.

And Zhou Ming is afraid of the bloody system in his head. After the amount of property he owns exceeds a certain amount, he no longer conducts quantitative statistics based on specific assets, but roughly controls the land area and calculates it. What lies ahead is how to control more than 500 million square kilometers of land.

Under the premise of not rebelling and not disrupting the prosperous world, it is almost impossible for Zhou Ming to complete this task with the strength of a medium-sized family alone.

Therefore, he needs to recruit some help to join his overseas colonization plan.

And these classmates who are mostly from rich families are the ones he is trying to induce and persuade.

"That's right! Brother Qing Xiao, you don't know anything. The Penglai Immortal Island is not far from the land where we are. It takes more than ten days to get there by boat... The year before last, my Tian family had a fishing boat. Encountering a storm, I drifted to the legendary Penglai Fairy Island. After surviving by chance, last year, my Tianjia Ocean Fishing Company organized an expedition team consisting of ten large ships to explore the sea for a full year. Guess what? Guess what this fleet found? Big islands, countless big islands..."

Zhou Ming began to make up half-truths and half-false stories, and vividly told everyone that the "adventure story" of this expedition fleet on Penglai Xiandao, on those tens of thousands of islands, there are Some boats found the "Golden Mountain and Silver Island"; some boats encountered cannibals and were almost caught and eaten; some boats discovered many strange creatures; some boats saw volcanic eruptions, etc... ...Every story is full of twists and turns, which make people amazed again and again.

In addition to the story, Zhou Ming also prepared some "real objects" brought by the expedition fleet, which were placed in several large boxes. When the boxes were opened, there were dog-headed gold and silver ores, costumes and bone stick weapons worn by cannibals, some Strange plant branches, bird feathers and other things are displayed in front of everyone.

With these "real things" to testify, Zhou Ming's half-truth and half-false story has increased its credibility by [-]%.

"I used to think that this Penglai Immortal Island only existed in legends, but I didn't expect it to be true." Lu Wencai held a big bone stick used by aboriginal people, with a look of curiosity and longing.

"Penglai Immortal Territory, there really is Jinshan Silver Island, where is it?! Brother Zihua, can you write down the detailed location of your expedition fleet?"

"Brother Zihua, can your Tian family's ocean fishing company accept other aristocratic families to join? According to Brother Zihua, it seems that you intend to recruit cooperation..."

"Yes, Boss, what you said is that I am itching to wait, how about letting everyone share a share of Penglai Xiandao? We are all good brothers who are blessed to share, Boss, you will not forget us, right?" Tang Junming Looking at Zhou Ming said.

Yao Qingxiao pointed at Zhou Ming and laughed loudly: "Boss, you always do things like this. I have personally experienced it many times. Don't be fooled, boss. Tell me your plan. What do you need, brothers?" Those who help, I will do my best."

"Brother Qingxiao knows me..."

Zhou Ming smiled slightly, and told everyone's pricked ears about his "joint development" plan.

The object of the alliance is naturally the aristocratic family behind these students.

The goal of development, of course, is the legendary "Penglai Fairyland" two thousand miles to the east.

As long as the aristocratic families behind these students join this "joint development" plan and contribute their efforts, in the future, among the thousands of islands in Penglai Immortal Territory, the results will be distributed according to the contributions of each family, and the family that contributes the most , will be assigned to islands with an area as large as half a state; families with medium output can be assigned to islands as large as several counties; Enough to accommodate a population of more than [-] people.

This "joint development" plan is very attractive. Although most people present are not that interested in living on an isolated island, from the perspective of a big family, this development plan undoubtedly solves countless problems. For thousands of years, aristocratic families have been extremely afraid of something: the catastrophe of genocide.If you can live in a place beyond the law of the dynasty, across the ocean and natural moat, on a small overseas island, not to mention the migration of the entire clan, but only some of the clansmen, settle down, and keep their blood, those aristocratic families will not raise their flags to rebel. And then there are so many concerns.

Therefore, after Zhou Ming's plan was announced, all the students present were very enthusiastic and expressed that they would go home to do the work of the patriarchs and elders, and strive to join this development plan. It's too late, the few big islands that are half the size of the state, and those golden mountains and silver islands, they don't have their family's share.

Coincidentally, not long after the Yuwen family, one of the eight great families in Qingzhou, was exterminated, the aftermath of the "after the abolition of Biaozuo" incident has not completely dissipated. , will be of great interest.

After finishing these students, under the setting sun, looking at the blue and red sea, Zhou Ming, who was full of poetry, wrote an original poem "Whale Watching Sea" on the spot. An article of more than a thousand words "Journey to the East China Sea" - because he is busy with work, in recent issues of "Zihua Anthology", "Mr. Zihua" who has published fewer works has attracted many readers and fans. I sent letters asking and questioning, Zhou Ming didn't create more works, and didn't give these fans an explanation, it would be impossible.

After watching the sea of ​​whales, the sea catcher II fishing boat turned around and returned. It may have been too smooth when it came. When it came back, it took seven or eight days. Not to mention, there was a big storm in the middle. Fortunately, the storm lasted for a long time. It wasn't long, except for some seasick students who vomited and diarrhoea, the group of people landed smoothly on the pier ground of Yugang Village.
