"Sir, these people on the beach are all the officials of the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion, the soldiers, officials, and people under their command." After the two ships whispered the flags, the escorted warship left and returned to the port of Penghu.

After the other ship finally passed away, the captain of the official ship who escorted Li Han was relieved. The shore of the East Vanguard was far away from a large crowd of black people, which made people a little scared. After confirming that the East Vanguard was speechless through the flag verb, the captain of the official ship came to Li Han and whispered to the Hanlin Bachelor.

Li Han is over 50 years old and is quite old. He is running around the sea for days and is a little tired. But now he can only force himself to lift his spirits and say, "Since that's the case, let's go to the dock."

"Yes, my sir."

The captain went to arrange the docking. As the big ship approached, several small paddle boats quickly sailed out at the port. The sailors rowed the paddles, and the long paddles rolled the waves on the beach, splashing out white waves. They approached like flying fish boats, with happy smiles on their faces. They put the zipline on the boat, then pulled the big ship and sailed towards the port area.

Looking at the situation on the shore, Li Han looked pale and said to the person: "I want to make some preparations."

Li Han did not expect that there were so many people on the shore. He previously recorded that the Middle East Vanguard had always been a barren island with a population of more than 10,000 people. You can imagine how remote it was. In front of him, there seemed to be more than ten thousand people on the shore alone, and the continuous dock ports and various buildings completely shattered Li Han's previous impression.

As we approached the shore, thunderous cheers came from the coast pier.

Everyone was almost yelling and shouting with all their strength, and the shouting formed a tsunami-like sound. Many sailors on the official boat had never seen such a scene, and almost all their faces were shocked.

Even Li Han's expression changed and his expression was a little nervous.

I really didn’t expect that Xu Zixian, the Marquis of Nan'an, was so popular on Dongfan Island?

The boat flew forward and quickly dispersed. The official boat approached the shore. The sailors held long poles and pressed against the dock to prevent the ship from being too fast and the hull would be damaged after hitting the dock.

After the ship shook gently, the lucky ship, which was more than 300 tons, finally landed on the shore.

It seemed that someone ordered, and then the drum trumpet rang. The whistling around gradually stopped amid the sound of blowing and beating drum trumpets.

Then there was a silence, with thousands of people on the coast, almost everywhere, densely packed, giving people a strong psychological impact.

But the crowd was quite quiet, almost no one made a sound, and there were occasional coughs, but most of the time was silent, with only the sound of the sea breeze blowing and the sound of the waves hitting the shore.

Li Han's back was almost wet, and the climate of this island was really no different from hell. The sun was extremely hot, and the brightness between the world seemed to be raised by someone. The sun was dazzling, the sky was as blue as the sea, and the blue was a bit too much, as if the paint was added when painting. The mountains and rivers were beautiful, the beaches were continuous and bright tones were bright. It was originally a good place, but the weather was too hot. It was early August, which was the hottest time of the year. People stood still, and the sea breeze was still sweating. The thin clothes were quickly wet. Li Han was quite uncomfortable and even felt out of tune.

It was the first time that people in the Dongfan saw a purple-robed official coming out of the capital.

Amid the buzzing sound, Li Han walked down the official robe with a majestic expression. Several of his servants followed carefully, and the entourage sent from the Political Affairs Hall also followed and disembarked.

When they reached the shore, Li Yi and others had already met. There were some drummers on both sides, and even further away were some guards in charge of security.

"We'll pay homage to Lord Li."

Before Li Yi went south, he had already gone to the Dongfan. Then the official stopped many times along the way, and seemed to have been trying to delay more time, but it didn't matter. Anyway, people have already arrived at the Dongfan and the Nan'an Marquis Mansion, and will soon be renamed Zhongshan Prince's Mansion.

The civil servants of the Dongfan were quite dissatisfied with the title of King Zhongshan, but the military generals didn't care.

As long as the Wei Dynasty recognizes it as a prince, there are many benefits, it doesn’t matter what title you have to be granted.

Fang Shaoqun is also an outlier of civil officials. After hearing the title, he smiled coldly and said, "A naughty child's old trick."

"You guys are exempted from gifts."

Li Han frowned and looked at the civil servants in front of him. The official robes that were not suitable and too close were obviously changed in the cut. They were not like officials, but rather like those minor officials who were rushing to do chores in various yamen in the imperial city. Those minor officials often tucked the corners of the robe on their belts because they felt that their hems were inappropriate. Li Han scolded them once when they saw them, which was simply inappropriate.

However, I unexpectedly thought that in the Dongfan, the style of official robes has been completely changed.

Li Han's throat surging a few times, and he wanted to say a few words, but in the end he gave up.

Before coming here, Li Han had at least put in some effort. He looked at the appearance of the officials in the leadership, middle-aged man, and Yanzhao people, and said, "Are you Li Yi, the chief of the Hou Mansion?"

This question was too rude. Li Yi frowned slightly and said with a smile: "What the bachelor said is, the lower-ranking official Li Yi."

"The Xiaguan Nan'an Regiment Training Officer Kong He."

"Fu Qian, joining the army below..."

A group of civil servants came up to greet him, and Li Han knew that they were all civil servants named in the Marquis' Mansion or the former Nan'an League training, most of whom were only seventh and eighth ranks, or even ninth ranks.

But what they actually did was to open up a deserted island, govern 100,000 people, and have their own navy and army. It was also true that they were princes in the country.

Li Han's face was unhappy, and this was an unhappy job. Before that, he was mentally prepared, but everything in front of him still made him extremely uncomfortable.

"You guys are exempted from courtesy." Li Han said to Li Yi: "Shi Li, where is the Marquis of Nan'an?"

"Awaiting the arrival of the bachelor's school in the Marquis' House."

This cannot be said to be the rude of Nan'an Hou. After all, the marquis of the country are of great importance. It is unlikely that the Marquis of Nan'an Hou will be welcomed at the dock. Even if he is the emperor's envoy, before the reading begins, Li Han

His identity is a bachelor, and compared with the marquis of the country, he cannot be considered above him.

Besides, Nan'an Hou is about to be named a prince, and is in the southeast, holding real power, and has a much higher status than Li Han, a Hanlin bachelor.

It was only then that Li Han noticed many people, and of course hundreds of guards who maintained order.

There are short black robes and cowhide leather belts with horizontal or ring-headed swords, as well as swords, round hats, red tassels, copper buckles, short sleeves, some people carry short crossbows, and many carry long bows, waist-hanging bags, or long scepters in their hands.

These fully armed soldiers looked brave, capable, smart and alert.

Although they were not wearing armor, all of these soldiers were wrapped in tangled shoes and leather boots. Their bodies looked strong, lean and full of energy.

Although Li Han was inappropriate and angry, he couldn't help but nodded secretly. No wonder the army that had killed more than 20,000 pirates, and seemed to be nowhere under the elite of the imperial guards in the north.

"These are the Nan'an team training on the island?" Li Han praised: "It's true that they are strong military, the warriors of the country."

"This is the guards on the island." Li Yi suppressed his laughter and explained: "They are only responsible for defending the natives from the outside and suppressing thieves from the inside. Jing'an is considered the robbery camp of the Great Wei army."

This explanation roughly introduces the role of the guards, and in fact there are also investigations of robbery cases, robbery cases, or ordinary criminal cases, public security patrols, mediation of disputes, and even commanding traffic.

There are more and more carriages on the island, and foreign merchants open restaurants and various shops. There are even two new brothels on the island this month. There are more outsiders, and public security cases will rise in other places. However, there are no such problems in the Dongfan. There are sufficient guards and train according to the military standards. They are strong and powerful, quick to respond, brave and powerful, and have a large number of people. They can be stationed at designated locations and patrolled at irregular locations, and they will not stop day and night. It is no exaggeration to say on the island that they do not pick up the road and do not close their doors at night. It is quite safe.

Listening to Li Yi's introduction, Li Han said expressionlessly: "Why call it a thief camp?"

"The Dongfan still needs to form a Xiang army." Li Yi smiled and said, "So it's hard to ask them to use the name of Xiang army."

Li Han snorted coldly, stopped talking, and turned to ask where Jingguan was located.

"That's it." Li Yi pointed to the southwest direction, and there was obviously a towering place. He said: "After a long time, the corruption and weathering are like a big mound of soil, but in fact it is the head level. Fortunately, there is no one near the shore, otherwise the epidemic will spread, which will be a big trouble. In addition, the smell will be unbearable."

The Hanlin Bachelor from the capital did not rush to get on the bus, but stopped to watch. After a while, Li Han said: "Isn't this a bit unkind?"

"There can't be used on these people. Does the bachelor know how pirates act?"

"There will always be something that can be influenced, right?"

"One day to catch some pirates and ask the bachelor to try..." Li Yi was already very impatient. Before that, when he was a scholar in the north, these Hanlin scholars were his role models to admire. Li Han was also from a famous scholarly family in the north. Before he came to the Dongfan, Li Yi was still full of expectations for this person. Now it seems that he is really full of corrupt scholarly atmosphere.

Such a person is also one of the candidates for the ruling emperor prepared by the emperor?

What a big joke!

"Didn't the Master say it?" Li Yi's face turned straight and said solemnly: "How is it like to repay grievances with virtue? Confucius said: How can you repay kindness? Complaint with virtue and repay kindness with virtue."

"I understand." Li Han sighed, knowing that there is no need to say anything else, he just got on the bus.

The carriages and horses walked forward along the official road and took Li Han to the near the original defensive yamen to settle first. It was not too early, so Li Han could not rush to issue an edict at night.

The guards rode their horses to guard both sides, and Li Han sat in the car, feeling the completely different scenery from the capital and even the Mingzhou and Quanzhou.

The buildings here are taller, more open and more magnificent. The official roads are well built, and there is almost no bump. The people are very confident and no longer afraid of the officials...

On both sides of the road, many people are making lint, and Li Han has seen similar production methods. There are also large trucks that pull the made lint, and go upstream to pull the lint above the river.

Li Han noticed that there were many buildings above the riverside. He wanted to inquire, but was told that this was a military facility. The Marquis of Nan'an ordered that it be kept confidential and that the purpose should not be disclosed. Li Han could only give up in a hint of disguise.

On both sides of the road, there are fields that cannot be seen at first sight. The harvest has been completed. Many women and men have plowed oxen or horses on the burned fields. The burned black wood ash and soil are mixed together, and are turned open by the iron plow made of fine iron and mixed together.

Li Han could also see that in addition to large areas of cotton fields, more places are bean fields, bean fields and sesame fields, which are good crops for land reclamation. He saw that the bean fields had been harvested, and only branches remained. Some places were completely dried and the fields were burned. In some places, the branches remained green and were continued to be exposed to the sun.

The burned wood ash is also an excellent fertilizer. In addition, beans originally had the function of driving grass and fertilizing fields. Along both sides of the fields, many farmers and men in gray robes were digging ditches. Seeing them sweating like soil under the scorching sun, digging water-drawing ditches, and clear water was drained from both sides of the fields. Li Han knew that he should be planting rice soon. After the transplanting of rice, he would have to be busy for a while. It was not until the winter season that the entire farming work would stop.

Along the road, dense mulberry trees are planted, and mulberry trees are planted on the edges of many fields and on one side of the hills. It should be less than half a year ago. Many mulberry trees are only the thickness of their thumbs, which is about the same height as children.

By this time next year, the mulberry trees will have a wrist thickness, which will grow taller than adults. By the year after, the same thickness as the calf, and two people will be taller.

Li Han's estimate is based on Jiangnan and north, but in fact, the East Fan should have a long life faster.

A large number of mulberry trees mean that the Dongfan can raise silkworms on a large scale, which means that the Dongfan will become a raw silk production base. Judging from the dense planting of mulberry trees, Li Han has no doubt that the raw silk production of the Dongfan will be quite in a few years.

Attractive.

At the same time, the Hanlin Bachelor also noticed the tea mountains and large areas of sugarcane fields that were reclaimed from the hills. Li Han knew that Fujian was originally a sugar-producing area, and it seemed that Nan'an Hou Mansion had never given up on this.

The further he went, the more frightened Li Han was in his heart.

The Hanlin Bachelor believes that there are many hidden secrets in the Dongfan who have not asked him to see, such as the legendary salt drying field, the huge shipyard he saw when he got off the boat, and the mysterious building communities in the upper rivers.

There are also villages with excellent planning, and Li Han is also quite interested in this.

But there were a large number of guards following around the carriage, either riding horses and chasing them, or driving around, and there was no chance at all.

...

At night, there was a flash of light in the distant fields. The Hanlin Bachelor who was worried was unable to sleep anyway. The older people were afraid of the cold and wind. The temperature dropped a lot at night, not as hot as the daytime. Li Han put on his robe and walked out. Several Yuan Sui who were walking south followed the master with lanterns and headed to the lively place.

During the day, people rarely come, but when it gets dark, there are more people. Li Han also knew that Nan'an was originally the place where the Dongfan defensive envoy and military camp were located, and it was also the earliest place to develop the Dongfan, so it should be the most prosperous place.

The buildings here are quite dense, much denser than the dock port area.

Judging from Li Hanxin's prejudiced and critical attitude, the architectural planning here is also quite outstanding.

Residential areas are isolated from commercial areas. The commercial areas are very large. On several streets along the east, west, south and north directions, most of the shops have not closed yet. There are lanterns outside the shops, and the shops are brightly lit.

The commercial and trade zones are very close to the entertainment zones full of restaurants, restaurants and brothels. Compared with the slightly cold commercial zones, there is much more lively there.

A large number of people were wandering around the restaurants and brothels. This area was designed to be surrounded by mountains and seas, on the side of Nan'an River, and a large number of flowers and trees were planted. There were also many shops selling overseas goods, and there were many small stalls and vendors. There were many snacks. Whether the guests were full or just here, they could buy a portion of oysters and fried them with fresh seafood. The seafood fried with gouache and eggs and soy sauce smelled fragrant.
