After the Full Level of the Profession

Chapter 929: Xiangshan Port

The small fishing village of the Eastern style is very different from the Western architectural style. Westerners like to build houses with stones, and they like to build the houses with horns and corners to show the geometric beauty, but the Orientals are not like this. They use wood and thatch. Come to build a house, the style of the house is unusually complex, showing a simple and simple feeling.

Robb stopped fishing and leaned on the side of the boat string, looking at a small fishing village on the shore, his eyes reluctant to leave.

The two little girls were very curious and couldn't help but leaned forward and asked, "Godfather, what's the matter with you?"

Robb smiled and said: "It's nothing, just seeing these houses, I think they are beautiful, so look at them more."

Speaking lightly, in fact, his heart is full of touch. He has been in this world for eight years. He has experienced three times in the Black Dragon Flying Year. After being away from home for so long, he will still feel homesick after all. But there is no home for him in another world, and the only one who can find the feeling of home is this country full of rabbits. Seeing the architectural style of the ancient town of Ciqikou in Shuangqing City on the shore, how can I not feel filled with emotion.

"Looking back, I will open up an area in Shuangqing City and build all houses of this style." Robb said, "The name of this area is called Bunny Street."

The two little girls laughed happily: "That's OK?"

"Of course." Robb said, "No matter how fierce the war was and how hated each other, everyone in this world will eventually become a villager, and ethnic and culture will merge. This is a law that cannot be escaped. It’s not surprising that there is an Oriental Street in a western city, and it’s not surprising that a foreigner’s street appears in an Oriental city."

While chatting, the small village passed, the fleet continued to the north, and I don’t know how long it took to sail. A natural harbour appeared by the sea. There are many ships moored here, and there are actually Western sailing ships.

The two captains came to Robb and reported: "Godfather, this is a small seaport city on the southeast coast of Dongtu Datang. The name is Xiangshan Port, which is smaller than Boning Port, but it is also called Dongtu Datang. The second largest port, there are many caravans from the Gran Kingdom and the Norma Kingdom, and it is the place where we Westerners gather the most in Dongtu Datang."

Robb thought to himself: This is about the equivalent of Hong Kong in the original world.

He asked curiously: "This is only the second largest? Port Bonin is better than here?"

The two captains nodded: "Boning Port is the busiest and busiest port in Dongtu Datang. This Xiangshan Port is still a long way away. It is almost entirely a port supported by us Westerners, Dongtu Datang's. People don't pay much attention to this port."

"I see!"

In fact, Robb didn't know that even in the great nautical era of the original world, Hong Kong was quite backward in the beginning, far inferior to Ningbo. At that time, Ningbo was the most powerful and greatest port in the East. Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a celebrity in the Warring States Period of the island country, once thought that Ningbo was the best place in the world.

Robb pointed to the Xiangshan Port in front and smiled and said: "I want to visit this harbour. We can stop here for a while and then continue to Bonin Port."

The two captains nodded: "Of course there is no problem."

The two answered this first, and then whispered: "However, there is also a bad place here. This is the site of the eighteenth divination. Those Western businessmen who paid the protection fee are safe here, but like ours. Those who don’t give eighteen divinations...it will be more inconvenient...Of course, we don’t need to be afraid of them if you are here, just to prevent them from playing yin."

Robb smiled and said: "I understand, so you don't have to be afraid of eighteen divinations to let the crew move within the scope of my sight."

The two captains ordered, and the three large sailing ships began to approach Xiangshan Port.

Before docking, I saw a few small boats with Dongtu Datang’s official dragon flag blocking them. Several rabbits and sailors wearing Dongtu Datang officers’ and soldiers’ clothes stood on the bow, shouting to the big ship: “Where are you from? Ship? Declare customs immediately and pay taxes."

Robb turned to the two captains: "There are officials from Dongtu Datang here?"

The two captains hurriedly introduced Robb: "Although this place is not valued by Dongtu Datang, it is also a place under the jurisdiction of the government, and more and more attention has been paid in recent years."

It turned out that Xiangshan Port at this time, in the establishment of Dongtu Datang, was only a small county called Xiangshan County. It was embarrassing, but he did not expect that one day a large Western ship would come here, and then this small county town with a natural port would suddenly become a fire.

Western ships arrived one by one, and the ruined place became more and more prosperous. At first, the county magistrate was happy because the tax revenue had increased, but slowly it felt something was wrong. There were hundreds of Xiangyong in his hand. , It seems a bit unable to hold these foreigners. After the number of foreigners increased, they began to deny face to the county magistrate and refused to accept his control. Some people even refused to pay taxes and wanted to face him.

More than a year ago, a group of people from the Norma Kingdom saw that the county magistrate had no soldiers in his hands. They were so overwhelmed that they built a walled city on the seashore, occupied the territory of Dongtu Datang, and sent two hundred sailors to defend the city to bully the county. Ling had only a few hundred militiamen in his hand, thinking that the county magistrate could not help them.

The county magistrate was so angry that he hurriedly reported to the Guangdong admiral above, and then the admiral sent five thousand rabbit soldiers with a casual word.

The foreigners were dumbfounded on the spot. On the western side, how difficult is it to transfer five thousand soldiers out? This would have moved several knights, it would be impossible without the king to speak up. How can I know that the commander of any district in Dongtu Datang will come here with so many orders.

The five thousand rabbit soldiers pressed the two hundred soldiers of Norma to the ground and rubbed desperately, rubbing and rubbing like a devil's pace. From then on, foreigners have been obedient, and they don’t dare to mess around here anymore. Everyone has to be obedient to the rabbit. The county magistrate pays taxes.

After listening to the story of the two captains, the two little girls couldn’t help but laugh: "Noma can’t beat it, but we have Godfather, and we are not afraid of these rabbits. The last time we came to collect our money for eighteen divinations, Godfather despised it. Didn't expect these rabbits to come again? They are endless. Godfather, shall we bump them over again?"

Robb shook his head: "This time I can't bump into it. It is not the pirates who came to collect taxes this time, but the officials of Dongtu Datang Kingdom. They are reasonable and reasonable to collect taxes from us, and we should also declare in a serious manner. Taxes. This is not a question of whether I can beat or not, but a question of my respect for others."
