    Leaving Ryukyu, we continued to go south along the long coast of Ming Dynasty. After several days of sailing, we finally arrived in Qiongzhou.

    "Finally arrived in Qiongzhou!"

    When Liu Jin arrived in Qiongzhou, he couldn't help but get excited. His mind was filled with the beaches, coconuts and beauties in bikinis in later generations. Qiongzhou in later generations was a holy place for vacation.

    But obviously, Liu Jin was disappointed. Qiongzhou in this era was still very remote and backward. It had always been a place where prisoners were exiled. The famous Hai Rui was exiled to Qiongzhou.

    The Haikou City that Liu Jin arrived at this time was very small, even worse than the Ryukyu City here in Ryukyu. If it hadn't been for the arrival of the Ming Dynasty Navy, a large-scale building had been built here in advance to facilitate the entry and exit of ships.  The port made Liu Jin wonder whether this was Qiongzhou.

    ¡°There¡¯s nothing special about Qiongzhou, right?¡±

    Beside Liu Jin, Wang Shouren looked around Haikou City with a telescope with some doubts. He didn't think there was anything special about Qiongzhou. It was just an ordinary place in the Ming Dynasty, similar to many places on the long coastline. It was very ordinary.

    But along the way, Liu Jin never forgot about Qiongzhou and seemed to yearn to go to Qiongzhou.

    Wang Shouren thought there was something special about Qiongzhou, but now it seems that there is nothing special about it.

    "Old Wang, let me tell you, this Qiongzhou is a good place. Qiongzhou is similar to Nanyang. Its climate is very similar to Nanyang. You can grow vegetables here even in winter. In the future, it may become my  It¡¯s the Ming Dynasty¡¯s vegetable store.¡±

    "Also, look at this beach, how beautiful it is, with blue sky, white clouds, blue sea water, this thin, narrow white beach, do you feel like you want to take a good rest here?"

    "When our Ming ships run faster and faster in the future, Qiongzhou will definitely become more and more popular. If nothing else, just coming to Qiongzhou for vacation in winter will be great."

    Liu Jin looked at Wang Shouren, then pointed to the beautiful beach outside Haikou City and said.

    Although Haikou City in this era is still very small and backward, it also has its advantages, that is, there is no pollution, everything looks very primitive, natural, and the scenery is beautiful.

    "I want to take a rest, but I don't want to go out in the sun."

    Wang Shouren shook his head slightly, having a hard time understanding Liu Jin.

    "Forget it, you don't understand what I'm telling you."

    Liu Jin shook his head, talking to an ancient person about beach beauties, this is not playing the piano to an ox, not to mention that there are no beauties here now.

    In the newly built wharf and harbor of Haikou City, large ships are moored quietly. On the playground of the port, the Royal Navy of the Ming Dynasty wearing white navy uniforms is practicing.

    They arrived in Qiongzhou before Liu Jin. They first got familiar with the climate, water and soil in Qiongzhou. At the same time, they also began to patrol the Beibu Gulf to eliminate pirates in Qiongzhou.

    "Master Liu, Master Wang, welcome to Qiongzhou~ I am Zhong Fan, the Chief Envoy of Guangdong."

    Liu Jin and Wang Shouren had just disembarked, and before they had time to experience the beautiful scenery of Qiongzhou, a group of people in official attire immediately came to greet them.

    Good guy, it¡¯s completely dark, with dozens of people in it.

    "Master Zhong, gentlemen, there is no need to be polite."

    Liu Jin looked at Zhong Fan, then at the dozens of dark figures, and said with a smile.

    "Master Liu and Master Wang, you have come from afar, and I have prepared some wine to help you catch the wind and wash away the dust."

    Zhong Fan also looked carefully at Liu Jin and Wang Shouren in front of him.

    Liu Jin and Wang Shouren are both very young. Wang Shouren is only in his early thirties, and Liu Jin is only in his twenties. However, both Liu Jin and Wang Shouren have a bright future.

    Although he is now a second-grade official and has a higher grade than Liu Jin, when he learned that Liu Jin and Wang Shouren were coming to Qiongzhou, he immediately came from Guangzhou to Qiongzhou Haikou City to welcome them.

    Liu Jin and Wang Shouren in front of him are both popular people in front of the emperor. Especially this Liu Jin, even though his official position is a little lower than his, he is still worth making friends with.

    ?? Guangdong, in the Ming Dynasty, was far inferior to its status in later generations. During the Ming Dynasty, Guangdong and Guangxi were basically one, and they were both miasma-ridden barbaric lands south of Lingnan.

    Like Qiongzhou, all the Ming Dynasty prisoners were exiled.There is no doubt that Guangdong will inevitably rise. The advantages of coastal and riverside areas will gradually become more prominent, and will slowly surpass the traditional inland areas.

    "Mr. Liu, can Guangdong really do a lot?"

    Hearing Liu Jin¡¯s words, Zhong Fan immediately became excited, as did the other Guangdong officials present. They had actually had enough of Guangdong and wanted to be transferred to other places.

    Now after listening to Liu Jin¡¯s words, it seems that Guangdong¡¯s future development must be very good and it is still a good place.

    "That's of course. If Mr. Zhong doesn't believe it, you might as well go to Ryukyu and have a look. Ryukyu was originally a truly wild and uninhabited land."

    "But now, in just a few years, Ryukyu has developed rapidly. It now has seventeen cities and a population of more than two million people."

    "Guangdong's foundation is much better than Ryukyu. If you seize the opportunity, you can definitely make a difference."

    Liu Jin nodded solemnly and said.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
