Originally, Liu Meng was preparing to go back to his hometown to relax. People would always feel tired after walking outside for a long time. At this time, the origin of his departure would make him feel the most stable. If explained from a psychological perspective, in the human soul hall constructed by more than one billion neurons, the earlier the strong memories will be regarded as the cornerstone. When you return to a place that is considered the cornerstone by the nervous system, you will of course feel safe.

However, Liu Meng did not feel this way when he returned home this time. The memories of drowning infancy completely ruined the image of his hometown in Liu Meng's heart. The reason why Liu Meng left here was to escape poverty and hopelessness. At that time, he didn't know Zhao Jiaren at all, but he just heard that there was such a Zhao clan looking for sailors. After comparison, Liu Meng believed that the Zhao clan he had never met was more reliable than the familiar villagers who could not be more familiar.

So Liu Meng quickly embarked on the road to return to Quanzhou. In this world, Liu Meng thought the most reliable one was probably around Zhao Jiaren. As Liu Meng said to his niece Liu Hongxia, in this world, Liu Meng only saw Zhao Jiaren, and Zhao Jiaren did not favor one or the other for taking care of adults. Liu Meng was originally a person who cherished children. After eating for a few years, he felt that what Zhao Jiaren said was right.

When he returned to Quanzhou, Liu Meng said to his niece Liu Hongxia, "Don't tell others about the countryside this time, especially your aunt. If your aunt knew about this, she would be unhappy."

Seeing that Liu Hongxia agreed seriously, Liu Meng went to see Zhao Jiaren. He said frankly: "Principal. I am willing to go to Sado Island."

"Really?" Zhao Jiaren stared at Liu Meng and asked.

"Really!" Liu Meng replied seriously. He obeyed the people who came back from Sado Island. It was a quite interesting island. There was a mountain in the northeast and southwest of the island, and there was a plain between the two mountains. There was no shortage of water here, and the temperature was pleasant. Anyway, no matter from which angle, it was much better than Liu Meng's hometown.

Seeing that Liu Meng was serious, Zhao Jiaren was sure that this guy had accepted his fate at this time. Then Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but smile.

Seeing Zhao Jiaren's clear smile, Liu Meng immediately felt warm in his heart. No matter how many difficulties he experienced, Zhao Jiaren could always smile. Seeing such a smile during victory was the best thing that made Liu Meng feel.

Before Liu Meng could say anything, Zhao Jiaren lowered his voice a little. "There is a gold mine on Sado Island. I asked you to go because I can trust you. You have to do a good job of opening a gold mine."

At the first moment, Liu Meng didn't understand what he had heard. Gold Mine? After following Zhao Jiaren for several years, Liu Meng wanted to make a few gold bracelets and gold rings, as well as gold hairpins. One or two gold coins were about 14 jin of copper coins, and Liu Meng knew about this. So he used it for a long time before he understood what the meaning of "gold mine".

Gold Mine! In the past, Zhao Jiaren made money back from others, but now Zhao Jiaren produced money himself!

"Magistrate...Magistrate. Are you saying we have gold?" Liu Meng's eyes widened, and his words were a little unsightly.

"We just have a gold mine." Zhao Jiaren replied with a smile.

In the 21st century, Zhao Jiaren also traveled everywhere. When he was traveling in Japan, he visited Sado Island. Many people were exiled here, so the local area is the holy place of Nora, Japan. In addition, another tourist focus on Sado Island is gold mines.

Sado Kinshan, located in Aikawa Street, was renovated as a visit by the mine excavated in the Edo period (1603 to 1867). The gold and silver mining operations at that time were reproduced through robot performances.

There are facilities to experience collecting sand and gold. The facilities display countless information about Sado major gold mountains that were prosperous in the Edo era, and you can also purchase local specialty products related to Jinshan. At the same time, you can help tourists process the collected sand and gold into commemorative cards or pendants. Zhao Jiaren has a small gold bead, which was found by digging gold.

Those who are interested in the history of the Warring States Period in Japan have probably heard of Ishimi Ginshan, while those who are on par with Ishimi Ginshan during the Edo period were Sado Kinshan. Zhao Jiaren was a guy who was a little interested in the Warring States Period in Japan. After traveling, he learned about Sado Kinshan.

As the owner of Jeju Island, Liu Meng has a high evaluation. So Zhao Jiaren chose Liu Meng among Li Hongjun and Liu Meng.

After arranging this matter, Zhao Jiaren held another meeting of the Navigation Guild. The meeting was about the fleet that was headed south in Jingding in the third year. Nine ships came from Jeju Island, plus the newly built ships in the Mawei Shipyard. Zhao Jiaren's fleet size increased to 80 ships. The number of fleets of the other nine companies increased to more than 200, and the total number of fleets increased to 300.

"I have a suggestion." Zhao Jiaren said. As soon as he spoke, the others immediately sounded seriously.

"Each ship has to send two people to station on the island south. They go there in the first winter and return with the fleet the next year. The stationing period is more than a year. When you go there, you not only station it, but also build a port lighthouse on the island. You have to pay four jin of money every month."

This requirement is easy to understand. It is much better to park on an island run by someone than to park on an uninhabited deserted island. As for the more money you give, it is also easy to understand. The Song Dynasty generally believed that going to the South China Sea was to take risks with your head and die for a lifetime. If you don’t give more money, no one would be willing to sign such a contract.

However, this is a proposal proposed according to the internal system of the Navigation Guild. It is a very new thing for everyone to eat beef jerky. So everyone began to express their opinions.

"I think this is pretty good. But what exactly do they build on the island?" Zhao Yichang asked the question.

Not to mention, this discussion was serious from the beginning and the questions raised were quite good.

Zhao Jiaren asked Cai Youcan, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, to speak, and received instructions. Cai Youcan's voice was trembling, but he spoke clearly and could see that he had made very detailed preparations, "First of all, it is to build a port and a lighthouse. They also need to build residences, organize water sources, and of course farming and prepare food. All of this is to make that island a stable base for us. Just like Quanzhou on the sea."

"We can't just call it 'that island'. Should that island be named?" Qi Rong said.

After saying that, Qi Rong suddenly remembered that he was holding a board meeting. He quickly corrected: "I suggest giving that island a name!"
