The Three Kingdoms

This city, located on the southeast coast, is an important port connecting the Wu Kingdom to the sea.

In the fourth year of Chuping, the Sun brothers led a fleet to search for Yizhou, and the state of Wu officially stepped out of the sea.Dingyizhou, on the East China Sea.Open the South China Sea...

Over the years, the maritime territory has become an indispensable part of Wu.

As an important port for going out to sea, Dongzhi City has undergone earth-shaking changes.

In the past, this place was just a small backward and unpopular county town. In the past few years, it has already changed beyond recognition and has been continuously expanded.The constant influx of people.

It changed every day, and within a few years, it has now steadily become the top ten largest cities in the Wu Kingdom.

It is also the most prosperous port city in Wu State.

In Dongzhi City, there are three ports in total, namely the South Sea Port.The East China Sea port and Yizhou port are just military ports. On the contrary, most of them are commercial ports.

As soon as the Economic and Commercial Department was opened, the status of merchants in Wu State increased greatly, and the benefits brought back from the sea also made countless people see gold and silver, and countless merchants bought ships to go to sea.

The Liaodong Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce whose main business is maritime shipping.

With the continuous development of the South China Sea, the DPRK and China have also proposed the business of selling islands, and many merchants with increasing wallets have begun to appear on the sea.

This port city, not to mention the usual floating population, is just the current resident population in the city, with a population of at least 50, second only to Jinling City and Wu County.

This city is known as the first port of Wu State.

"Gu hasn't come back here for many years!"

It took ten days for the army to stop and go, before Sun Quan rode a tall horse and stood under the gate of Dongzhi City. He looked up and saw the gate with a trace of melancholy in his eyes.

At the beginning, he and Sun Ce brothers were full of spirits, and it was from here that they formally set out to sea to explore the unknown Yizhou on the sea.

During the process of exploration, they encountered countless big storms, walked a wrong path, and almost disappeared in the misty waves.

But for them at the beginning, it was a happy struggle without worries, trusting and clinging to each other, relying on each other for life and death, and in their hearts, they had no scruples about life and death, and immortality for thousands of years.

Can look at today.

Although he, Sun Quan, was only twenty years old, young and energetic, he could no longer regain his unscrupulous pride.

Time is really a butcher's knife!

It can kill people's hearts, it can also kill people's feelings, and it can even kill the past years.

Even now, Sun Quan remembers one thing very much. When he was sailing on the sea and his future was uncertain, he once told Zhou Yu that the Sun family would never have a brother-in-law fight, but it is a pity that it finally came to this point.

Up to now, he still has to guard against Sun Ce and use despicable means to test Sun Ce, as if the friendship between the two brothers in the past has disappeared in time.

"Your Majesty, this city is the land of the King's prosperity!"

Like a King Kong, Lei Ding rode his horse and stood behind Sun Quan, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty was conferred the title of Marquis of Dongzhi by the previous dynasty. Dongzhi is your administrative office, and it has always been your territory!"

"Ha ha!"

Hearing this, Sun Quan couldn't help but smiled, and said: "Gu Zhen misses the past a little bit, being a little Marquis of Dongzhi is much happier than being an incomparably noble king now!"

Marquis of Dongzhi was the first title obtained by Sun Quan. The title of the Han Dynasty was awarded by Han Xiandi Liu Xie himself, and the land was entrusted to Dongzhi.

"Chen Shangsheng, let Dongzhi Baiguan, pay homage to my king, my king, long live, long live, long live!"

"Long live my king, long live, long live!"

At this time, in front of the gate of the city, Shang Sheng, the order of Dongzhi, came out with all the civil and military officials of Dongzhi city in a mighty way, and a mass of black heads hung down, kneeling and saluting.

"Get up!"

Sun Quan came back from his past thoughts, jumped off the horse, and slightly cupped his hands towards the crowd.

"promise!"

Shang Sheng stood up from the ground.

He is no stranger to Sun Quan.

This was the second time he received Sun Quan, but the meaning was different. Sun Quan today is already the supreme king of Wu, and he felt a little nervous.

"Magistrate Shang, we haven't seen each other for many years!"

Sun Quan took a step forward, looked at Shang Sheng, patted Shang Sheng's shoulder very affectionately, and said with a smile: "You were already the magistrate of Dongzhi County back then, and you are still the magistrate of Dongzhi County now, why haven't you made any progress? ah!"

Shang Sheng, when Sun Quan entered Dongzhi, he was the county magistrate of Dongzhi. Now six or seven years have passed, and he is still the county magistrate of Dongzhi.

Now he is only in his early forties, less than fifty years old, it shouldn't be like this!

An official who has not made any progress in [-] must have a limited future.

"Your Majesty has a good memory!"

Shang Sheng heard the words, bowed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "I was born in Dongzhi and grew up in Dongzhi. I can't do without Dongzhi. Watching Dongzhi change day by day, step by step, it becomes a prosperous and rich city. , I am already satisfied!"

It's not that the Kuaiji County Sheriff's Mansion has not confiscated him to enter, and even waited for him as the governor of the Sheriff's Mansion, but in the end he gave up.

"You can manage Dongzhi in an orderly manner, I am very pleased!"

Hearing this, Sun Quan smiled and gave a word of encouragement.

The importance of Dongzhi is self-evident. Shang Sheng can resist the temptation to get promoted and get rich, and stick to Dongzhi. He is considered a good person.

"Thank you King for your appreciation. I will do my best to defend the city of Dongzhi for Wu and King!"

Shang Sheng was a little excited when he heard that, Sun Quan is the king of a country, and what he said is enough to make an ordinary family become a family motto.To be continued. .

[Text Chapter 678 Ironclad Ship]

Sun Quan's schedule was very tight, and he didn't have time to learn about the changes in Dongzhi City in detail. The second day after he arrived in Dongzhi City, he went directly to Dongzhi Boathouse.

The purpose of his coming to Dongzhi was to launch a new ship.

Dongzhi Boathouse was built in the fourth year of Chuping. When it was first established, it was based on an old workshop. The scale and craftsmen were not as good as Taihu Workshop and Kuaiji Workshop.

In the second year of the Warring States Period, Taihu Shipyard, which was the first shipbuilding workshop in Wu State, moved southward, and completely merged with Dongzhi Shipyard, creating the largest and unprecedented shipbuilding workshop in Wu State.

This workshop does not manufacture fighting ships or warships, but only the most powerful building ships, from two-story small building ships to five-story building ships, every building ship used by the Wu State Navy today is made from It's in the sea here.

The workshop is located on the outskirts of Dongzhi City, a port by the sea.

Sun Quan has always attached great importance to intellectual property rights. The security measures of the entire workshop are managed by the military, and a thousand elite soldiers are stationed here for many years.

"Last General Shi Lei, General He's lieutenant, pay your respects to the King!" Outside the workshop, before the barracks, the leading lieutenant stood up to welcome Sun Quan.
