Otherworldly Castle Era

Because there are not many people accompanying Yang Song this time, the travel speed should also be faster.

Leaving Zhongjing City and heading north, after passing Beidao City, you will be at Shanhaiguan Pass. This is also the junction between Guanzhong and Guanzhong.

Shanhaiguan was an important pass for Xia to resist external forces in the past, and it can also be said that it was the northern border of Xia at that time.

After occupying the Linhai Basin, Xia Guo destroyed all the roads in the Linhai Mountains except the Shanhaiguan Pass to save the cost of defending the enemy.

Now that Xia Guo has occupied the land outside the customs, in order to clear the connection between the customs and the customs, some of the previous roads have been repaired, otherwise the Shanhaiguan pass alone will not be able to guarantee the communication between the two places.

After passing through Shanhaiguan this time, Yang Song and his entourage first visited the city of Guihua, ten kilometers away, which was a window of foreign trade that year.

It is precisely because of the history of Guihua City that Yang Song and the others will go on a tour to see the difference between the current Guihua City and the previous one.

Yang Song still remembers that he had visited the city of Guihua in private at the beginning, and Zhou Yi, the governor of the city at the time, gave him a reception. He still remembers the fireworks show at that time.

When Yang Song stepped into the current naturalization city, what he saw was a very prosperous naturalization city, which was much better than the naturalization city when it was used as a window of trade in the past.

However, due to the geographical environment where Naturalization City is located, the most prosperous place in this city is no longer the original valley.

The current naturalization city is the most prosperous part outside the valley. After all, the terrain outside the valley is flatter and much wider.

After browsing the naturalization city that completely changed, Yang Song had to feel that the hard work and wisdom of Xia people were far beyond the reach of foreigners.

After Yang Song and his entourage left Guihua City, they turned to the east, and took a train that had been in operation for a few years to reach Lihai City, a coastal city more than 400 kilometers away.

Yang Song came here not only because Lihai City is a newly developed coastal city, but also because there is a shipbuilding base in Xia Guo.

More because Lihai City and surrounding areas are Xia Guo’s new important industrial base outside the customs.

Lihai City has a complete large-scale shipyard and various supporting factories.

There are everything from steam engines, machine tools, and smelters to textile factories and wood processing plants, and there is even a large arsenal.

Yang Song and the others carefully considered Lihai City into an important industrial base outside the customs.

Lihai City lives by the sea and has convenient maritime traffic, which can facilitate the transportation of materials from outside the customs, central and inside the customs.

In addition, Lihai City is located in the southeast outside the customs, far away from the northern border, and is considered a safe rear.

In the end, of course, it is the strategic layout of Xia Guo’s overall consideration. As the saying goes, don’t put eggs in a basket.

Just like the western industrial zone in the Guanzhong area and the northern industrial zone in Guannei, they all have the same purpose.

The smoke and dust emitted by the chimneys in the heavy industry area obscured the sky, and Yang Song went to the ground after visiting it.

However, it is precisely because of these heavily polluted factories that Xia Guo has an unmatched strong national power.

So even if Yang Song didn’t have a clean cheek after the tour, their hearts were fiery and proud!

“It seems that the problem of environmental pollution will be solved sooner or later.” Yang Song still has a clear understanding of this.

But how to solve the problem of environmental pollution is difficult. Either do not build the factory, or build the factory elsewhere-these two methods will definitely not work.

Even if Yang Song uses all the methods he heard in the world before, it can’t solve the fundamental problem. It can only solve the symptoms rather than the root cause.

unless……

Yang Song thought of a solution, but he immediately vetoed it by himself, because this solution had no practical operability at all.

“Xia Guo is only in the steam age now, how come to heaven?” Yang Song secretly shook his head, and rejected the sci-fi idea in his mind.

Yang Song is no longer the king of a country. He is just an old man with a somewhat special status. He no longer has the energy to do it for decades.

“Can I still borrow from the sky for another five hundred years? Haha ” He has no choice but to limit his life span. Yang Song doesn’t know how to do alchemy or serve alchemy.

Moreover, he has already reached this age, and Yang Song has seen some things. Since he cannot change the established future, he will try to live better now-this is why Yang Song wants to visit Xia Country. One.

Swim through the industrial area and came to the seaside port of Lihai City. Looking at the shipyard not far away, the workers’ chants can be faintly heard. It seems that the inner sea of ​​the shipyard is very busy.

Yang Song and the others set up a northbound seagoing vessel at the port of Lihai City to prepare to go to the north of Yunhai City.

This time, Yang Song took a very large sea vessel. It is said to be a new-style sea vessel launched recently, and it is also a sea vessel with both passenger and cargo.

This sea-going ship has several floors. Except for the engine room at the bottom, there is a cargo hold with a relatively large space, and the upper three floors are the passenger cabins.

While on the ship, Yang Song and the others ran into a businessman. When they were boring and chatting, Yang Song learned that the businessman was engaged in marine transportation and he was relatively wealthy.

Listening to this businessman’s introduction to ocean transportation (boasting?), Xia Guo’s ocean transportation is very busy from north to south, and sometimes he can’t find a ship to transport goods.

It was the sea-going ship they were on that the merchant had spent a lot of energy before grabbing the cargo space.

When Yang Song asked the merchant what kind of goods he was transporting, the merchant seemed humble, but proudly introduced the tea and porcelain that he transported.

After hearing that the merchant was transporting tea and porcelain, Yang Song also guessed the destination of the other party, and it was likely that they were shipped abroad.

After asking again, as expected, the businessman said in detail that he was engaged in foreign trade transportation.

Yang Song knew at this time that this businessman had such a confident attitude.

Although doing foreign trade in Xia Guo has enough benefits, because of Xia Guo’s foreign policy, the review of foreign trade businessmen is very strict.

Therefore, if this businessman can obtain foreign trade qualifications, it means that he has a sufficiently high awareness of patriotism, secrecy, and awareness.

Otherwise, a businessman who does not have enough ideological knowledge has gone abroad, and he does not know what he will do to harm the interests of Xia Guo.

You must know that outside of Xia, those foreigners have another name for Xia’s merchants as “aristocratic merchants”!
