    "I'm here, I'm here" After Liu Yishou became a famous minister, he went out to see the world again. At this time, he was mumbling like a sheep:

    "I want to admit my mistake for my ancestor. The things he did back then were indeed wrong."

    "Do you recognize that name now?" Zhao Hao smiled and pointed with his chin at the 'Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia' moored on the Huangpu River.

    "Alas" Liu Yishou blushed for a while, then nodded with a blushing face.

    "Hahaha!" Zhao Hao laughed loudly.  The viewing hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Mr. Zhao.

    "Okay, it seems that going around the earth makes a lot of progress. With a realistic attitude, everything will be easier!" Zhao Hao raised his voice so that everyone could hear him:

    "Your great-grandfather, Zhongxuan Gong, is indeed China's eternal sinner. But since you seek truth from facts, I also seek truth from facts, judging a person should be based on 'the time and place', and should not be strictly based on today's results.  The ancients. In fact, during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, when the Ming Dynasty went through excessive spending, the national treasury was already very empty. The Western economy was indeed a waste of money and people, and it could not bring any visible benefits to the people and the court. Zhongxuan Gong burned the drawings  , it is understandable to reduce the burden on the country and the people."

    "Yes, yes" Liu Yishou wiped away tears after hearing this, and nodded excitedly: "It turns out that the young master understands"

    "Haha, I didn't name him 'Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia' just to humiliate Ling Taizu. The purpose of using the name 'Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia' is to warn people today not to do such things that harm future generations.  At that time, Liu Zhongxuan was excusable, but now a hundred years have passed. Europeans have completed a circumnavigation of the world, are competing for land and digging for gold all over the world, and are so rich that they are dripping with oil. They even come to our doorstep and stare at us with eager eyes! Who wants to do it now?  Those who block the passage to the sea are the true sinners of the ages, the thieves of the country for the ages, the gods are disgusted and the ghosts are tired of it!"

    "Yes, yes! Young Master is so right! Whoever dares to stop going to sea is our enemy!" The guests applauded in agreement.

    After completing the global voyage, everyone now believes that there is gold, silver, land and precious spices everywhere overseas. Anyone who dares to stop everyone from going out to make a fortune is the public enemy of giving birth to children without buttholes!

    Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Liu Yishou plucked up the courage and said, "Young Master, I have an unkind favor"

    "Is it because of that?" Zhao Hao said with a faint smile.  Back then, he was filing lawsuits and fighting chieftains just to change the name of "Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia".

    "Yes." Liu Yishou nodded, looking longingly at Zhao Hao and said: "My ancestor mistakenly burned the nautical chart of the Western Ocean. Although there was nothing wrong at the time, it caused great losses to his descendants. In order to compensate for his fault, I  I am willing to stay on the boat for the rest of my life and redraw the charts of the Southern and Western Oceans. No, I want to draw the charts of all the seven oceans!"

    "That's not something you can accomplish in one generation." Zhao Hao shook his head and smiled noncommittally.

    "It doesn't matter, I will have my son after me, and my son will have grandchildren after me. The children and grandchildren are endless!" Liu Yishou said with a generous face.

    "Good guy, Old Liu is going to be the foolish old man of the sea!" Niu Observer couldn't help but praise: "The foolish old man can move the world. Old Liu is also very energetic. See if you can be accommodating?"

    "Okay, since the observation says so" Zhao Hao smiled and nodded, and finally said to Liu Yishou: "After you draw an accurate chart of the sea areas where my Ming ships operate, I will take the 'Eternal Sinner'  The name Liu Daxia has been changed for you!" Mr. Zhao finally nodded and let go.

    "That's great, thank you young master!" Liu Yishou was so moved that he seemed to have seen the "Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia" changed its name to "Flying Hunanese".  Just thinking about that glorious scene made his tears flow down uncontrollably.

    Although Mr. Zhao has been vaccinated, Old Liu still didn’t realize how arduous his task was. He thought it would be completed in just a few years

    "You can't miss this year's lecture tour in various counties." Zhao Hao also smiled and added to him: "Ten thousand words from others can't be as effective as yours."

    "Ah?" Liu Yishou looked confused. Wouldn't he have to whip his ancestors to death repeatedly?

    "If it turns out well, I can consider making some small changes to the name of 'Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia', such as adding 'former' in front of it" Zhao Hao tempted him.

    "Deal!" Liu Yishou gritted his teeth and agreed.  My heart says, ancestors, for the sake of your reputation, sacrifice your reputation

    ??~~

    The buffet party lasted all afternoon, and the guests gathered around with great interest.??Liu Yishou, listening to him brag about his adventures in global voyages.

    ??The same is true for robbing Spanish people in the Caribbean. From the mouths of ordinary crew members, it is robbing families and taking advantage of others.

    "But if a scholar like Liu Yishou talks about it, he will become Chen Zigong, Ban Dingyuan, Wang Xuance Good guys, your blood is boiling, and it is a supreme honor!"

    The guests were so fascinated that they kept pestering him to continue talking, from Central America to South America, from South America to the Antarctic, and then back to South America to kill everyone The process was indeed soul-stirring, and it was enjoyable just to listen to it.

    “And this is a building with more than 30 floors. It’s not easy for everyone to take the stairs up. They all want to spend as much money as they can in one stay.  So they stayed until dusk, and after admiring the magnificent sunset over the long river, they reluctantly walked around the spiral staircase and went downstairs.

    I didn’t expect that going downstairs would be more tiring than going upstairs.  My legs were so sore that I couldn't bear the strength at all, so I could only move sideways and move down like a crab.

    When the guests finally moved down from the tower, they saw that the night sky was completely dark, and the whale oil street lamps in the square were lit one after another.

    People heard that the whale oil is mainly imported from Ainu Island.  It is said that the Ainu extracted the toxin by collecting poisonous plants, smeared it on their spears, and then used small boats to get close to the whales to hunt them.  They ate the whale meat, then cut the whale's skin and fat into long strips, boiled it into whale oil, and exchanged it with the Ming Dynasty for daily necessities and armor and weapons to resist the Japanese.

    But in fact, Jiangnan Group has a huge demand for whale oil. In addition to lighting, it is also used for lubricating oil, extracting glycerin, etc.  The Ainu are not satisfied with even 10% of whale oil.  Mainly smuggled from Japan.  But the Japanese products cannot be seen in the light, but they are all blamed on the Ainu people.

    As a result, the people in the south of the Yangtze River were very fond of the Ainu people They felt that they were so capable. They could fish for whales in the sea and chop big trees in the mountains. Many people clamored to rescue them from the clutches of the Japanese pirates.

    ??~~

    When the lanterns first came on, a bright moon quietly jumped out of the sea.  The moon on the fifteenth day is sixteen round. The bright moon tonight is very big and round.

    Suddenly there was a burst of cheers in the square, and everyone looked back and saw strings of red lanterns lit up on the Oriental Pearl Tower behind them.  Thousands of lanterns decorate the 100-meter-high tower intoa glowing candied haws, lighting up both sides of Huangpu.

    Soon, the square and green space became a sea of ??colorful lanterns.

    The flower boats and boats on the river are also hung with glazed lanterns and colorful lanterns, which reflect the beautiful colorful light on the river.

    The sky burst into brilliant fireworks, completely covering up the starlight.  The crackling of firecrackers and the sound of dragon and lion dances sounded throughout the city.

    The new area already has a population of 500,000.  Moreover, the per capita monthly income is about 20 taels, and technicians can even earn 340 taels a month. The income far exceeds that of other prefectures and counties, and even Suzhou cannot compare.

    There are so many well-off citizens in Pudong, so you can naturally earn more money by performing here.  So as soon as the New Year was over, hundreds of troupes came from all directions, and even juggling troupes from Yancheng and Guangde came all the way, just to earn votes during the ten-day Lantern Festival.

    Therefore, on Jiangnan Avenue, the main road from the square to the new district, there have been competing performances of singing and dancing for several days, including walking on stilts, rowing land boats, performing yangko, performing acrobatics such as stepping on a rope, Zhang Jiuge swallowing an iron sword, Li Waining's music  The puppets and horses stewed themselves in small iron pots the people watched in a frenzy and followed the playful team around the city.

    The most eye-catching one is the fire dragon dance that prays to drive away the god of plague.  People tied straw handles into the shape of swimming dragons, tied pine needles, grease and candles to the dragons. After lighting them, more than a dozen young men each held them and flew them up and down, like fire dragons full of flames in the air.  With its head held high and its tail wagging, it is very spectacular.

    On such a lively day, the streets are naturally empty, and everyone helps the elderly and children out early to have fun.  There are children scurrying in the crowd like swimming fish, there are groups of girls in costumes, and there are many couples boldly dating

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????…  In addition to food and drink, there are also various flowers, jewelry, antiques, bonsai, fish and poultry

    Vendors carrying baskets and pots were also squeezing among the crowd, selling all kinds of sugar, rice dumplings, dough balls, lotus stems, bolou, melon seeds, and all kinds of fruits for everyone to enjoy.

    This vivid "Shangyuan Lantern Picture" really has the flavor of a prosperous festival

    ??~~

    Zhao Hao and his two wives were strolling in the bustling square. Young men holding small lanterns ran past them excitedly.  The young men and women who went out for a date boldly held hands and exposed their waists, not shying away from the gaze of others.

    The Lantern Festival is the real Valentine’s Day of the Ming Dynasty.

    The men and women working in the new area got rid of the personal constraints of their clans and gained greater economic freedom.  It is also easier to come into contact with opera novels that do not teach people good things, and they will soon learn bad things in big cities.

    It has returned to the bold dating and love style of the Tang and Song Dynasties.

    very nice.

    Human nature cannot be destroyed, just like a seed under a stone, dormant for many years in a harsh environment.  But once the climate is right, the stones will soon break away, stubborn buds will sprout, and eventually gorgeous flowers will bloom!
