"This is the Whale River......

Chen Chan stood on the deck, looking at the blue sea, and sighed.

Now, it's the height of summer.

The water is very warm, leaning over and looking at the sides of the ship, in the water, there are even big fish from time to time, swimming back and forth, like arrows off the string.

Now, more than an hour has passed since Chen Chan waved goodbye to the family of the migrating giant beast.

The fleet was at sea, brave the wind and waves, and sailed for tens of kilometers.

The monsoon of this season in the Whale River Sea is perfect for sailing south.

Therefore, the fleet constantly adjusts its course according to the direction of the wind.

With the help of a Korean guide, head towards the legendary land of Japanese slaves.

In the past hour, Chen Chan and the soldiers of the fleet saw countless giant beasts, breathing on the surface of the sea.

You can also see a spectacular group of humpback whales, cooperating to hunt plankton in the sea.

The whole fleet has also developed from shock and panic at the beginning to no surprise now.

Everyone has gradually understood that those seemingly terrifying beasts are actually very docile.

They don't even hurt the fish in the sea......

What I saw in my eyes was just a group of whales that kept rising up to breathe, and then, escaping into the deep sea, group after group of whales.

Of course, the oceans are not always peaceful.

Not so long ago, the fleet witnessed a massacre in the ocean.

A pod of sharks besieged a migrating group of sperm whales.

Two young whales were brutally murdered, and the blood stained the sea red.

The Han fleet, sailing over, dispersed the sharks and saved the poor sperm whale colony.

"This whale river. Sure enough, the name is well deserved......" Chen Chan scratched his head with emotion and asked those Korean guides: "But, how did such a large and numerous giant whale grow up?" ”

After passing through the scene of Fang Cai, it was not only Chen Chan. It was already clear to the whole fleet that these giant beasts, like cattle and horses on land, were just scary to look at, but in fact, they were also flesh and blood, and they could not even fight against sharks that were only a few tenths of their size.

Like a cow and horse on land, left down by a jackal. Tore.

So here's the problem.

There is no end to this sea, except for the sea, but also the sea.

These giant beasts don't eat fish, they don't look like they eat grass, and they don't eat the fireworks of the world.

So, what do they eat to grow to this big?

Especially the whale population in this whale river sea is so many and so large.

They must have a food source.

But the question is, what do they eat?

If you can figure this out. Chen Chan felt that this voyage. Even if you don't get anything in the end, it's worth it.

When those Korean guides heard this, they shook their heads and bowed one after another: "Noble, I really don't know, I only know." The ancestors of the ancestors, back and forth between this whale river sea and the country of Japanese slaves, can see countless whales every year, so it is called the whale river sea ......"

Chen Chan heard this. I can't help but be disappointed.

If only you knew, the food source of these giant whales!

As long as you know, the next time you come back, you will set up an ambush in their feeding area, and you can hunt dozens or even hundreds of them at a time!

It is equivalent to going to sea once and getting back tens of millions of money!

Such a deal is enough to make people crazy!

"Then do you know where these whales are going?" Chen Chan continued to ask with some reluctance.

The guides still shook their heads.

The sea is vast, and their ancestors only knew from their ancestors that at some point, there will be a current that can drift to the country of the Japanese slaves, and follow the current to easily reach the islands of the country of the Japanese slaves.

Other than that, they don't know anything else.

This made Chen Chan a little frustrated.

But Chen Chan didn't know, and he couldn't have imagined that most of these huge giant beasts in the sea were floating cloud creatures that were invisible to the naked eye.

Those tiny plankton have raised the largest sea monster ever built on Earth.

This is the miracle of life.

What he didn't know was that in the deep sea of the Whale River Sea at this moment, two ocean currents were hedging against each other.

The warm currents from the southeast coast of China and the South China Sea, and the cold currents from the Arctic Ocean, converge in the depths of this ocean, bringing with them a large amount of nutrients and countless nutrients.

It's these things that attract whales from all over the world to come from all over the world to participate in this feast.

Some of these whales have traveled more than half the world from near the Antarctic or the North Pole to feast.

But there is one thing that Chen Chan is very clear.

"The money for my Northwest Governor's Office, as well as the funds for future construction, have been settled!" Chen Chan looked at this sea area and thought in his heart.

There are so many behemoths in this sea.

Almost every quarter of an hour, the fleet's line of sight could spot one or more whales moving.

How many whales are there in this vast whale river?

Chen Chan couldn't count the number clearly.

So, just find an island in the nearby waters where these whales can be slaughtered and dismembered.

This whale river sea will become an active gold mine.

"And...... It's a gold mine that never runs out! Chen Chan thought in his heart.

A whale is equivalent to at least tens of gold, and may even be equivalent to a hundred gold.

It takes thousands of people to dig up a hundred gold and work for up to a year.

Among them, there are at least dozens of workers who died of exhaustion, disease, and landslides.

But here, it doesn't need to be.

Just come in a heavily armed whaling ship.

Once the hunt is complete, the whale carcass is towed to the dismembered and refined island.

Then the skin, bones, and grease are shipped back to China, and the money is in hand.

It doesn't get any easier way to make money!

Thinking like this, Chen Chan asked, "Then you should always know, where are the islands in the sea?" ”

These Korean guides, you look at me, I look at you, think about it, and then, one of them: "Back to the nobles, the father of the villain seems to have said that near the country of Japanese slaves, there are two big islands, and on the islands, there are also some Japanese slaves, naked, slash-and-burn, and knotted ropes!" ”

"Do you have names for those two islands?" Chen Qian frowned and sighed in his heart, but it is better to have an island to settle on than to drag whales on this sea for two or three days.

God knows, will these whales rot after that much time?

"......No," replied the guide, and then, with a pat on the horse, said, "They are probably waiting for your nobles to come and name them......

When Chen Chan heard this, he smiled happily.

A name?

This is good!

Since Emperor Gao, the noble ministers of the Han court have been infected with the bad habit of naming mountains, rivers and lakes.

His brother-in-law, the emperor, is the best of our time.

First, he gave a new name to the land of the people, and then felt that it was not enjoyable, so he packaged the other parts together and named Huaihua.

As for changing the name of the original Joseon royal capital to Pyongyang, it is even more pediatric.

Chen Chan pondered for a moment, and then said: "This prince and marquis commanded the Chinese ships, not far away, to the Nayi Di slaves, the Holy Son of Heaven will be turned into rain and dew, and the other generation will be sown, so they will be called those two islands, one said: Cheng'en, the other said: Shunde ......"

Chen Chan didn't know that Tsushima Island and Iki Island, which were in another time and space, were named by him in this way.

He dragged his cheeks and looked at what the Koreans called the Whale River Sea, and felt that the name was very bad.

If it spreads out, it is likely to attract the covetousness of others.

You have to change the name of it, so as not to attract a bunch of people to eat it before you have eaten it.

You must know that although the Chen family is a relative, except for his mother, there is actually no one who can fight in the imperial court!

In the future, the queen's sister will give birth to the eldest prince, and she may have great power.

But that's the future.

Now, the Chen family is a family that can't go up or down.

Where can I compare the two Bo Dou clans with the support of the two queen mothers?

Even more can't catch up with the horse, such as today's No. 1 noble family, Changping Hou Zhou.

Even if these three giants don't come forward.

The Cao family in Pingyang, the Chen family in Qu Rebellious, and the queen family of Liu Wu, the king of Liang in Suiyang, are also qualified, saying no to his family, and even hanging him up and beating him.

Therefore, it is necessary to hide people's eyes.

"Ben Junhou thinks that the name of this whale Chuanhai is nondescript and quite uncivilized...... Chen Xun looked at the others with a smile and said, "Why don't you give it a more elegant name?" ”

Where do others dare to have any opinions?

They all laughed and said: "What the prince said is right, he should take a nickname!" ”

Chen Chan pondered for a moment, looked at the vast sea, and then said: "Yi Yun: One Yuan is renewed, Vientiane is renewed, this sea is the first far sea where my Chinese king's ship arrives, let's call it Yuanhai......"

Naturally, the others did not have any opinions, especially the officers from China, who applauded.

Yuanhai, of course, is better than Whale Chuanhai!

The reason is very simple, as soon as this name spreads, doesn't it tell the people of the world: Lou Chuan expands a sea frontier for His Majesty, and his life is Yuanhai?

Although it is said that China is not particularly interested in the so-called maritime frontier.

Even the word Haijiang is a new word.

This was invented by Lou Chuan Yamen himself.

The inventor is none other than the current Lou Chuan general Xu Welding.

Obviously, this is a word that Xu Weld forcibly invented in order to rob others of military funds.

As soon as they heard this word, they immediately used it.

It must be said that our ships are the danger of His Majesty's guarding the sea and frontier, and the grain of thousands of miles will be lost to the world.

And it doesn't matter if others believe it or not, anyway, the Lou Chuan Yamen is believed up and down.

It is the answer to the lie told 10,000 times, which is the truth.

Lou Chuan shouted these slogans every day, and over time, it did brainwash many people, but, slowly, they themselves believed it.

I am sure that I am really an important department that guards the sea frontier for His Majesty, patrols the coastal defense for Zhuxia, and exports the world's grain and grass.

Lou Chuan is not in Jiuqing's belonging, it is simply too aggrieved! (To be continued.) )
