Chapter seven hundred and sixty-four. The sharp contrast of the prince chapter
It is indeed cold weather, but this is definitely not a bitter and cold place! It is close to the Japanese warm current and the Qiandao cold current, and the adjacent sea is a large granary. The fish caught feed the fishing sea port and more than 30,000 Ming immigrants in more than a dozen counties along the coast of Alaska, not only is there enough to export to the Ming Dynasty.
Not far from the peninsula, it was the Iliana volcano in later Australia. This guy was alive. He obtained volcanic ash from the foot of the volcano and collected sulfur from the crater. Cement, one of the important industrial materials here, began to get on track. With cement and steel and building materials directly exported from Liaodong, the urban development potential here is very great.
As for other resources, there are some mineral deposits in Fur Mountain, and no one has dug a shovel for thousands of years. Although gold and silver mines cannot be said to be everywhere, it is not difficult to find them carefully. There are coal mines nearby to support the alchemy industry and residents to keep warm. In short, in addition to growing more in winter and having fewer vegetables, this place is simply a gift from heaven.
The only imperfect thing about Mao Xingjian is that he doesn’t care about it!
Ma Bao, who was still a Maple Stories two years ago, has now become Maple Stories Marquis, and he has been appointed as the Governor of Alaska. From here, he has gone south for thousands of kilometers along the coast of Canada. More than 30 county-level colonies at all levels are under his overall management. Mao Jue granted Mao Xingjian's Rocky Governor and went south!
"Why isn't this our territory? Oh!!!"
There was soup on his face, and he was holding half of the king crab in his hand and pulling off his legs. It was covered with white crab meat. While chewing, Han Xiaomo's mouth was filled with stuffed, complaining vaguely.
With a box in his arms coming out, Mao Xingjian's face was not very bad-looking. A few veins kept beating on his forehead, and the muscles on his face were twitching, as if he was forcibly enduring his anger.
His dignified prince had never lost such a big face. He went to take over, but was driven out in shame. Not to mention this, in the Governor's Mansion, in front of many New World nobles, Maple Shuhou actually sponsored him a box of gold!
A box of gold!
What do you treat him as a prince? He is a beggar?
Han Xiaomo's words were like the last straw that crushed the camel. Finally, he couldn't suppress his anger. The prince roared at the sky with great angriness.
"I really think I am just deposed? Today's humiliation, I will remember it!!!"
He smashed his fist on the face of the golden silk wood box. At that moment, Mao Xingjian's originally clean and handsome face became as ferocious as a ghost. He gasped for a few violent breaths. Then Mao Xingjian grabbed the heavy box and ran towards the port with a fury.
Seeing him running straight out, Han Xiaomo looked at him inexplicably, with a confusion on her forehead. She sucked her fingers and looked back in surprise.
“Isn’t it okay to give money?”
"Sister Changping is fun to tie up. His Majesty the Emperor is a crazy wife-loving man. The eldest nephew of the prince is not happy to get the money. Are all the people in the royal family so perverted?"
With curious skills, Mao Xingjian was almost running out of the main street of Qiehaizigang. He was shocked and Han Xiaomo shouted in tragic.
"Hey! Wait for me!!!"
He held the crab legs in one hand and the corner of his skirt in the other hand, and also took a hurry, and Han Xiaomo, who was shouting, also trotted out.
In the port of Snow Sea, the Black Pearl and the thirteen New World voyages that accompanied the voyages when they came, carrying precious metals mined from the New World and animal skins hunted in the mountains. These treasure ships turned back and brought the accumulation of primitive capital to the new Beiming. It has been more than ten years since it was built. This is the first time that the Black Pearl has been like this, and it is the first time that it is solo on its own and heading south along the long Canadian coastline.
Standing at the bow of the boat, Mao Xingjian, who felt that his self-esteem was frustrated for the first time, looked south in gloomy and annoyed moment.
"Hey, my nephew! It's time to have a meal!"
Holding a few cans from the fireplace, Han Xiaomo called heavily behind her, but after shouting a few times, Mao Xingjian still looked into the distance like a deaf ear.
"Oh..., Sister Changping said, the rebellious period!"
He put the canned food on the table helplessly. Han Xiaomo blew open the snow on the stool. He sat on it regardless of whether it was cold or not. He spread her report book and dipped it in a layer of ink from a pancake. He started writing in a hurry.
"In early November of the third year of Kaihong, Haiguo, light snow fell from the sky and arrived at the port of Tsinghaizi with the fleet. They did not take us in and were driven out, but the crabs here are so big and delicious!!!"
Listening to her Nian Hun'er's report, the blue veins on Mao Xingjian's forehead leaped a few times, and his fiery eyes were heavily moved to her head. However, after looking at him, he looked into the distance again like a deflated ball. Suddenly, he pulled over the chair and sat next to Han Xiaomo, grabbed a can that had not yet been cooled, and then pulled it into his mouth.
This meal was the most unpleasant meal Mao Xingjian had ever eaten, but he had ripped away a few canned foods, rice, meat, and dried vegetables. After the meal, he ignored the bad reporter who continued to write the report with a frown. With anger, Mao Xingjian quickly walked back to the captain's room.
With a bang, the box of gold given by Ma Bao was pushed into the large cabinet at the bedside, and then locked the cabinet firmly with the lock.
...........
Like the British and Spanish, the initial colonies of the Ming Dynasty also spread along the coastline, spreading all the way from the port of Tsinghaizi to the town of Fengshugouzi on the north shore of Victoria Bay in later generations. They all belong to the jurisdiction of Mabao's Siberian Governor's Office. They also took Victoria Bay as the boundary. Further south, Victoria Bay went deep into the easternmost end of the inland, and it began to become the new jurisdiction of the prince.
Mao Jue was actually quite generous. In terms of territory, he was equivalent to enfeoffing the entire United States to the crown prince. Although now, this place is just a wilderness.
When the Black Pearl was moored in the frozen Victoria Bay, it was almost the end of November. The sharp hull raked and cut the thin ice on the shore, and finally parked at a distance of dozens of meters from the shore and could no longer move forward. In desperation, the sailors on the fleet simply built a landing ladder on the spot.
Standing at the bow of the boat and jumping down, Mao Xingjian's cheeks couldn't help but twitch again.
This place is really worse than the Yanhaizi Port where he passed by!
There is a rocky beach on the coast. Not to mention the neat cement port, even the tidal flats have not been leveled. Some messy and dilapidated fishing boats like twenty years ago were tied to the beach, and not far inland, it was the jurisdiction of his governor.
Later, this location should be Seattle, a famous western city in the United States. But now it is a dilapidated town with the same wooden buildings. The same wooden buildings are like neat chessboards. The roads are spacious, the houses are arranged in a staggered manner, and there is a neat beauty in the wildness. But here, the houses are like rashes, and they appear casually. Some roads are empty, while others are crowded together. They can hit their neighbors even if they open the door.
The sky was misty and gloomy, and the snow fell sparsely. The snow in the town buried the roads, and no one came to clean them. This colony was not too small. Judging from the scale, there were about 5,000 people of all kinds, but the immigrants from the Yanhaizi Port, who were full of vitality and busy work but full of happiness, were like a dead city.
This is the real wilderness!
The disappointment was inevitable that he could not help but express his feelings. He tightened the fox fur cloak heavily and held the handrail of the landing ladder. Mao Xingjian heavyly stepped down the Black Pearl ship that had been with him for more than four months.
From a distance, it looked lonely and empty city, but when it was close, the fear of a dead city came to my face again. Everything was quiet, only the wind blew across the eaves and made a whimpering ghost cry. As soon as I walked to the shore, in the snow, a frozen hard body, the corpse of the Asian population suddenly appeared and fell there staggeredly.
It is estimated that this man has been dead for a while. The skin on his face is completely frozen and cracked. His eyes are as dry as the eyes of a dead fish. His torn teeth are squeaking, which makes Han Xiaomo tremble. But when he looks back and look at Mao Xingjian, who is also not good-looking, the girl is holding back her fear again. She looks like a small breast like a hen protects her cub, and keeps the prince behind him.
Unfortunately, Mao Xingjian frowned and pulled her aside impatiently
A group of more than 100 people climbed the shore, but they walked all the way to the village gate where the north wind blew, and there was no one to see it. The eldest lieutenant Shangguan Lichu's old face, full of wrinkles on the sea breeze, also showed full vigilance. He pulled out the revolver with his right hand and raised his left hand to the back. With the sound of a clamor, the Black Pearl sailors who followed raised their muskets.
But at this moment, a sound finally came from the town.
"Who are you?"
The leather boots were whistling on the snow. Mao Xingjian and his party were alert. A man wearing long boots, a thick sheepskin jacket, and a leather cowboy hat with a notch on his head. He looked about forty years, and the black and thin man came out in a gloomy faced with the snow.
It can be seen that he was also very cautious. While walking, he held two single shotgun handles of police officers on his waist.
The other party also had firearms. Ouyang Lichu, who was born in the Royal Navy flagship, covered the prince with his body as soon as possible. At the same time, he was holding a rifle and holding a gloomy face, and wanted to scold him. But before he could say anything, Mao Xingjian reached out behind him and pushed him away. He suddenly opened a yellow imperial scroll in his hand.
"I am the Prince of the Ming Dynasty. His Majesty is appointed as the Governor of the Rocky Mountain Colony! Who are you?"
Obviously shocked for this name. After a moment, the thick and black man finally let go of the gun and knelt on the ground with one knee.
Chapter completed!
