Chapter 546 The emperor of Dongzhou, Zhao Zhao's destiny asks for a monthly ticket)

"Dongzhou!Dongzhou!Dongzhou"

Amid the cheers, a snow-white wave plowed on the bow of the treasure ship "Direction" and drove straight into the mouth of the English Sea.

The deck was full of passengers and sailors who had been on the sea for more than two months and almost three months. Everyone cheered loudly at the continuous hills on both sides of the English Seaport. No matter what the future is, they finally saw the land now!

At this time, Zhao Lun and Sheng Xin were also standing on the rear deck of a 2,000-material sailboat named Treasure Ship No. 66.

Zhao Lun, the emperor of Xinzhou, didn't know if he was homesick or was shocked by the magnificent mountains and rivers that belonged to him in front of him. At this time, tears were already filled with tears.

Sheng Xin, who stood with Zhao Lun, did not cry. He had been to the New World.

In fact, he was the one who discovered the New World! At least in the future, only Sheng Xin discovered the New World, and Columbus discovered the New World. More than ten years ago, he led two sailboats across the ocean and entered the English Bay from this English mouth.

Why are they called "English Seakou" and "English Bay"? Of course, it is not that they admire foreign countries, but that Sheng Xin and the others really thought that they were a ball or a bowl when they arrived in the English Channel! Japan has traveled tens of thousands of miles eastward, so why should they all go to Europe?

Moreover, the terrain of this "English Seakou" area is very similar to the terrain of the English Channel known to the Song Dynasty Navy.

There is a wide strait. There is a continent on the south side of the strait and a large island on the north side of Shengxin. At that time, he saw Vancouver Island, but he thought it was England, so Vancouver Island became England.

Later, they sailed east along the "English Channel", hoping to find a port to dock in the coastal areas of Frank. However, they sailed for 300 miles, but they didn't find any ports, nor did they see any man-made buildings on the beach of Frank, and they didn't even see personal figures.

Moreover, the terrain of the "English Channel" is not right. The legendary English Channel is 1,000 miles long, and after leaving the strait, it is the vast North Sea. However, Shengxin and others only sailed 300 miles in the strait and then ended. And after leaving the strait, they did not see the North Sea, but saw an ocean covered with large and large islands. After they drove by a boat, they saw the end of the sea. It was obvious that they did not enter the sea east of the English Channel, but entered an unknown bay.

Then, they found a small bay at the mouth of the river on the coastline at the end of the bay, where they set foot on the land of the New World.

However, when they just landed, they still didn't know that they had arrived in an unknown wild continent, and they thought they had arrived somewhere on the European continent.

So they also brought books and gifts handed over to the Kings of England and the Kings of Frank.

However, after they logged in, they searched for many days, but they did not find any English or Frank, nor did they find any signs of human activities...

And there are various signs that there is no human activity in this land at all, at least there is no civilized human activity!

Since there are no humans or civilized humans here, and they look very fertile, with large areas of flat land, forests, grasslands, and rivers. Looking around, there are green patches everywhere, and you can tell at a glance that they are quite wet, and it must be a good place! So Sheng Xin decided to find a highland in the Hekou area where he landed. Because Sheng Xin and the others came here with the blessing of Zhao, they named the village Zhaojiazhuang. Later, Zhaojiazhuang was expanded several times and turned into Zhaozhou City.

While building Zhaojiazhuang, Sheng Xin also ordered people to reclaim arable land around Zhaojiazhuang, and even asked people to go south along Zhaoshui (that river) to hunt while looking for the "Frank people".

At the same time, Sheng Xin also sent a sailboat to the north along the east coast of the bay, trying to find the "English people" and then they really found it! However, the savages who were harvesting raw meat and drinking blood did not know how to farm at all, and only made a living by hunting and fishing.

Moreover, the savages who make a living by hunting do not even make bows and arrows, while the savages who make a living by fishing do not even make nets.

But even such a backward savage can eat and drink well on this land, which shows the wealth of this wild land!

Later, Sheng Xin served as the governor of the New World, named Dongzhou Continent for many years. The thirteen states of the New World, including "Zhao", "Qin", "Wei", "Chu", "Yan", "Han", "Zheng", "Qi", "Lu", "Wu", "Yue", "Jin", and "Liang" were all established one after another under his leadership.

Therefore, he knew the vastness and wealth of the East Continent best. In his opinion, the achievements Zhao Lun could achieve after becoming the Emperor of Dongzhou were definitely greater than the achievements he could have achieved when he became the Song Dynasty.

What is the best thing about the Song Dynasty?

Although the high-ranking official family is almost 60 years old, they are as strong as a cow and will not be sure to live for another 20 years. By then, Zhao Lun is in his early 60s, what career can he do?

Moreover, the Song Dynasty was already so prosperous. What Zhao Lu could do after he came to power was nothing more than maintaining his achievements.

And the land of destiny on the Dongzhou Continent!

"Your Majesty, don't be sad!" Sheng Xin saw that Zhao Lu was still crying secretly, so he leaned over and whispered, "This Central Plains is actually not as good as the minister of the Emperor of Dongzhou, who was in charge of Dongzhou for several years. He sent several expedition teams to find a way to Europe, but found nothing!

Because the road to the east is almost endless! After traveling from Zhaozhou to the east, 3,000 miles, there are still vast fields without cities and countries. Occasionally, some natives are all people who eat raw meat and drink blood, which is not worth mentioning!

Your Majesty, this may be your destiny!"

"Destiny? What kind of destiny?" Zhao Lun wiped his tears. He just missed home now and never thought about what kind of destiny he was facing?

"Of course, I'm holding a three-foot sword and driving the destiny of thousands of miles away!" Sheng Xin raised his arm and pointed to the east from a distance, looking excited. "Your Majesty, from here, 3,000 miles eastward is a boundless plain. It may be ten thousand miles to the end!"

Sheng Xin pointed to the south again, and his expression on his face became even more excited, "Your Majesty, the north and south sides of Dongzhou are also boundless! When I was in charge of Dongzhou, I sent an expedition ship to the south. I walked along the coastline for 3 months and walked thousands of miles, but I couldn't find the end!

I guess that the land of Dongzhou, from east to west, should be more than 10,000 miles from north to south, probably more than 15,000 miles!"

"It's indeed vast!" Zhao Lun nodded slightly.

Although Zhao Lun had never been to the New World, he had carefully studied the expedition reports sent by the Navy Commander and the Dongzhou Jiedushi Department. Of course, he knew that the big players in the Dongzhou Continent were almost gone.

He then shook his head and said, "Although it is big, it is too desolate and has too few people. How many Han people are there in the Dongzhou Continent now?"

"If we don't count our group, there are about 50,000 households and more than 200,000 households." Sheng Xin's expression was a little excited, "If we count the populations who followed His Majesty to Xinzhou, the number of households should be 80,000 and the number of households is more than 300,000!

Although not much, there are land, gold, silver, and many bisons in Dongzhou. Birds can be captured. No matter how many people come, they don’t have to worry about food and drink. There is no need to worry about no place to settle. We can use the method of granting land and allowing gold to dig and silver to lure immigrants in China, and we can also do everything possible to encourage the people of China to live and raise their lives."

Zhao Lun still frowned, "The people in Middle Earth have to cross the ocean to come to Dongzhou to breed and breed, and their growth will be even slower. I am afraid that the number of people in the Central Plains will not reach the number in hundreds of years!"

"That's a good thing!" Sheng Xin still looked happy, "The land of Dongzhou is much wider than that of the Song Dynasty in Zhongtu. Even if there is a population of 10 million, it may not be able to occupy the entire population. Our population will gradually grow, and the territory will gradually expand. As long as the territory can continue to expand, your Majesty and your Majesty's descendants can rest assured!

The dynasty that Your Majesty opens may be passed down in Dongzhou for 1,000 years!"

Zhao Lun was immediately feeling better when Sheng Xin said this, and many reasons why he couldn't make it through the past dynasties. In the final analysis, it was because there was not enough share of the cake!

There is not enough land, there are not enough gold, silver and treasures. There are many fierce barbarians next door who want to rob the Central Plains Dynasty and will sooner or later fall into internal and external troubles.

But the Dongzhou Continent is different!

This is a big, borderless pancake!

Just chew it!

Open to create!

Anyway, if you can’t take up all the land, you can’t dig up all the gold and silver. If you have enough benefits, you will naturally know the etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame, and the principles of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

Moreover, the barbarians here are particularly weak, with no horses, no bows and arrows, no armor, no copper and iron, and even wheels. Such barbarians are not even beaten to the target. They start practicing with such opponents, and don’t have to worry about being beaten down, and they can also exercise their martial ethics.

Therefore, it is easier for Chinese people on the Dongzhou Continent to unite and go to the outside world, because they are easy to win and suffer little losses, so of course it is much more cost-effective than killing each other.

If you can spread the big cakes out, of course you won’t roll them up and make burritos.

Even the Song Dynasty could benefit from it. As long as it could continuously transfer the excess population to Dongzhou, the masters who lost in political struggles or the children of nobles who had nowhere to settle, the internal conflicts of the Song Dynasty would be much more eased.

Zhao Lun's brows finally spread out, and his face also showed a sense of spirit. He raised his chest and looked at the majestic mountains and rivers on both sides of the seakou. A thousand-foot-like passion suddenly rose in his chest and abdomen.
