Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

Chapter 587 We Will Be the Masters of This Xingyue Island From Now On!

In the following days, Yang Zhengshan visited some friends in Kyoto.

He went to Sanshan Valley and not only met An Yuxing, but also Zhangye and Meng Po Po.

Zhangye was nearly 140 years old. He looked very old, with dry and white hair, wrinkled face, and cloudy eyes.

He was getting old!

Even the innate warriors could not resist the ravages of time and would eventually grow old.

In Zhangye's courtyard, the two sat under the eaves and drank tea.

"How far have you realized the meaning of the Tao?" Zhangye asked softly.

Yang Zhengshan shook his head slightly, "It's still far away. I feel that I have touched it a little bit, but it seems to be there and not there."

He could control the Thunder Gun freely, but he still did not have an accurate understanding of the meaning of the Tao contained in the Thunder Gun.

Zhangye looked a little depressed, "Daoyi, hey, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to enter the Dao in this life!"

Yang Zhengshan didn't say anything, because any words of comfort at this time would be pale.

Zhangye is already 140 years old. At his age, he may die at any time.

"Chen Shanwu passed away two months ago!" Zhangye said suddenly.

Yang Zhengshan was stunned, "Who is Chen Shanwu?"

"The old ancestor of the royal family, the one who has been practicing in the imperial mausoleum!" Zhangye said.

Yang Zhengshan suddenly realized.

He had heard of this person, but had never seen him.

"What a pity!"

Zhangye said again: "Li Shouning will not live for a few more years. After all, our generation has not found the threshold to enter the Dao!"

Li Shouning is the old ancestor of the Yangtian Sect. He has been guarding Cuixia Valley in recent years.

He is a few years older than Zhangye.

Yang Zhengshan can feel the depression in Zhangye's heart.

As fellow practitioners pass away one by one and the end of their lives approaches, Zhangye's mood will become heavier.

What these people fear is not death, but regret that they have not touched the threshold of the martial arts realm.

Yang Zhengshan saw the twilight in Zhangye, and the twilight made him feel very uncomfortable.

Perhaps this is a kind of despair, but Yang Zhengshan feels that he should not be so desperate.

Xiantian warriors are also human beings. Since they are human beings, there are things that they cannot do.

Rather than despairing about this, it is better to spend the last time in peace.

Yang Zhengshan walked out of Zhangye's courtyard and looked at the withered leaves in the courtyard.

"Perhaps letting go of obsession can enter a new level!"

He murmured softly.

There should be no obsession in martial arts practice. The deeper the obsession, the narrower the road ahead!

Whether it is Zhangye or Li Shouning, both seem to have a deep obsession with the martial arts realm.

This obsession seems to have become a stumbling block for them!

Yang Zhengshan was thoughtful.

After thinking for a moment, his expression suddenly relaxed.

"Let it be!"

"Haha, let's go!"

He laughed loudly, jumped on the horse's back, and galloped towards the outside of the Three Valleys.

...

September 20th.

The Yang family left Kyoto and went to Jinhaiwei to take a boat south to Xingyue Island.

This time to Xingyue Island, Yang Zhengshan took most of the Yang family's assets.

Including the guards and servants of the Yang family, thousands of people have moved to Xingyue Island.

Yang Zhengshan only left 50 guards for Yang Mingcheng, but the families of these guards will also move to Xingyue Island.

A few years ago, Yang Zhengshan distributed land to these guards outside Kyoto, and now Yang Zhengshan will distribute land to them on Xingyue Island.

Of course, the distribution of land is just a bonus. The reason why their families are moved to Xingyue Island is because Yang Zhengshan wants to take better care of their families.

In the future, the focus of the Yang family will be on Xingyue Island, and the future of the Yang family will also be on Xingyue Island.

If their children stay in Darong, they will return to ordinary life, but on Xingyue Island, they will have a different future.

So as long as they are willing to follow, Yang Zhengshan doesn't mind taking them with him.

Above the sea, the sky is clear, the smoke is vast, the waves are sparkling, and occasionally a breeze passes by, stirring up small waves.

A Dafu ship, two Haicang ships and six Kailang ships formed a fleet and headed eastward.

This fleet is the navy of Xingyue Island, trained by Luo Jinsong, with only 500 soldiers, and the training time is only half a year. Although it is still a group of rabble, it is no big problem to sail the ship.

Among the 500 soldiers, there are 180 soldiers on the Dafu ship. This Dafu ship was converted from a merchant ship. There are 20 crossbows on the deck. The ship is tall, but the soldiers equipped on the ship are not complete.

It stands to reason that a large ship should be equipped with at least 500 people, most of whom are soldiers and archers for boarding battles. If it is just for maneuvering, only 50 to 60 people are needed.

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi stood on the bow, looking at the sea with fish jumping, and their hearts were full of relaxation and satisfaction.

Leaving Darong is like getting rid of shackles, making them feel that the sea is wide for fish to jump and the sky is high for birds to fly.

"Marquis, we will reach Xingyue Island in another hour!" Luo Jinsong stood behind Yang Zhengshan and said with joy.

"Haha, don't call me Marquis in the future. I am no longer Marquis of Jing'an now!" Yang Zhengshan laughed.

"Then how should I call you Marquis?" Luo Jinsong asked.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and looked at Yu Qingyi, asking: "What do you think of calling me the island owner?"

"Xingyue Island owner? Why not establish a sect?" Yu Qingyi asked curiously.

She didn't care what Yang Zhengshan wanted to do on Xingyue Island. As long as she could be with Yang Zhengshan, she wouldn't care what Yang Zhengshan wanted to do.

Yang Zhengshan smiled and said, "It's almost the same, it's just a different name!"

"Then let it go!" Yu Qingyi said indifferently.

"Haha, from now on, I will be the owner of Xingyue Island, hahaha~" Yang Zhengshan smiled.

He still likes Xingyue Island very much. It should be a happy thing to have his own island.

"From the future, our Xingyue Island will also be a major force in the southeastern waters!" Luo Jinsong said vigorously.

Yang Zhengshan is not on Xingyue Island. He always feels guilty when facing some major forces in the southeastern waters.

Now that Yang Zhengshan is here, he feels that Xingyue Island has great potential.

The situation in the southeastern waters is very complicated. On the surface, there is only one dynasty in the southeastern waters, namely the Lu Sheng Dynasty, and two major forces, namely the Dihuo Island and the Shenmu Island, but in fact, the power in the southeastern waters is far more than that simple.

The so-called southeastern sea refers to the sea area in the southeastern direction of Darong. This is just the name from Darong. In fact, the southeastern sea area of ​​Darong is very vast, containing countless islands, and there are countless forces in it, even the southeastern sea. There is also a large continent in the south.

Whether it was the previously destroyed Xingyue Gate or the Lu Sheng Dynasty, they were actually just forces closer to Darong.

Luo Jinsong wanted to make Xingyue Island a major force, but Yang Zhengshan actually didn't have many ideas. He just wanted to have a place to settle down.

Free and free, not bound by the monarch and ministers, do not worry about the court, do not waste time and energy on those messy things, find peace, face the sea, and spring is warm and flowers bloom.

This is what Yang Zhengshan wants.

In front, the outline of Xingyue Island has been presented in Yang Zhengshan's eyes.

Slowly, Yang Zhengshan saw the houses and fields on the island clearly.

The fields on Xingyue Island are still lush and green.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

The climate of Xingyue Island should belong to the subtropical monsoon climate. In winter, the northwest monsoon prevails, but is restricted by the warm currents from the middle and north of the sea. In summer, the southeast monsoon prevails due to the influence of tropical high pressure in the south.

Summer is long and the east is short, with neither high temperature nor cold snow. The precipitation in summer is relatively large, which is very suitable for rice cultivation, and can be planted for two seasons a year.

It was the end of September, and the second season of rice on Xingyue Island had not yet been eared, and it looked green and green.

"Is the island storm this year?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"It's not big. The three mountains on the island blocked many storms from the sea!" Luo Jinsong said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly. The terrain of Xingyue Island is very suitable for life. The temperature in summer will not be too high. The maximum temperature should be a little over 30 degrees. The temperature in winter will not be too low. The minimum temperature should be above ten degrees.

The mountains in the eastern part of the island will become a barrier to the west again, which can well block the storm from the southeast.

The only downside is that the rain in summer is a little more.

The Dafu ship soon arrived at the dock, and the ship slowly docked on the dock, and Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi walked slowly off the ship.

On the dock, Luo Shang, Zhen Yangshi and Lu Xinghe were already waiting.

Seeing Yang Zhengshan get off the boat, the three of them quickly bowed and said, "Welcome to the old marquis!"

Yang Zhengshan laughed and said, "In the future, I will call the owner of the island of my husband, and we will be the owner of this Xingyue Island in the future!"

The three of them laughed and said again: "Greetings to the island master!"

"Yeah, it's very good. Have you all settled it?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Luo Shang stepped forward and said, "Manager Luo has arranged a house for us, and we have all settled in!"

Yang Zhengshan looked up at the city behind the pier.

"Okay, I won't say much today. I'll go to the mansion first to have a look!"

After saying that, Luo Jinsong led the Yang family into the dock and walked towards the city.

The city is not big, and it is just like a county town in Darong. The city is only ten miles away and the city wall is only one or three feet high. It looks ordinary and nothing special.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan didn’t understand why Xingyue Gate built such a city wall, which was meaningless.

If the enemy attacks the island, the city wall cannot stop the enemy.

"If you have time in the future, you will demolish the city wall. It will make you feel uncomfortable!" Yang Zhengshan said willfully.

This city wall blocks not the people outside the island, but the people on the island.

The people on the island have to go through the city gate if they want to enter the city. How troublesome!

"Yes." Luo Jinsong responded.

There are many mansions in the city, which were originally the mansions of the high-level Xingyue Gate. The mansion arranged by Luo Jinsong for the Yang family was the mansion of the Yue family in the past.

Compared with the Marquis' Mansion in Kyoto, this mansion is much smaller, but the view in the mansion is very good, with lush green everywhere, and it looks full of vitality.

The front yard is home on the back, and the left and right yards are crossed. Most of the buildings are mainly made of wood, and there are pavilions and towers, which is a little smaller.

"If the island owner thinks this yard is small, he can also open up the yards on both sides!"

"These three yards are about the same size. They were the yards of the Yue family, the Nan family and the Qu family before, and are now empty."

"There are four yards on the west side, which used to belong to the fourth one, and eight small yards on the east side, which used to belong to the eight yards on the lower side."

Luo Jinsong said.

The general layout of this city is that the north is a residential area, where the high-ranking officials of Xingyuemen used to live. There are so many families in Xingyuemen, but in fact, their main residence is not in the city, but in the villages on the island.

The mansions in the city are mainly for those high-ranking officials to live in, so each mansion is not very big.

In the middle is the main hall of Xingyuemen, including the main hall office, many warehouses, etc., and in the south is the commercial area, with about 30 shops and a market, where the residents of the island buy and sell goods.

"Let's do this first, you go and arrange the others first, and let Wang Jing arrange it here!" Yang Zhengshan said.

There are many people who followed Yang Zhengshan this time, as many as four or five hundred people. It will definitely take some time to arrange accommodation for so many people.

Wang Jing was originally a disciple of Tianqing Sword Sect, and now he is also a guard of the Yang family. Wang Jing is one of the 100 guards left by Yang Zhengshan on Xingyue Island before.

Wang Jing is not very old, and he is not even forty years old now, but his cultivation has reached the ninth level of the acquired realm.

Luo Jinsong left, and Wang Jing helped to arrange things in the mansion.

Lu Shou also came along. He is still the chief steward of the Yang family. As for the Marquis' Mansion in Kyoto, Wu Dashun, the long-servant of Yang Mingcheng, was promoted to the chief steward of the Marquis' Mansion.

Lu Shou was in charge of the front yard, and Qingxia was in charge of the back yard. Soon, the residences of the Yang family were arranged.

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi naturally lived in the main courtyard, but the main courtyard here was a little smaller.

"There are not enough wing rooms, not enough to be used as a warehouse!" Yu Qingyi made some arrangements and walked into the main hall and said.

The main courtyard here has no front hall and back hall, only a main hall. There is an inner room and an outer room on the east side of the main hall, which is where Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi live. There is also a study and a tea room on the west side.

There are only four east and west wing rooms, and two ear rooms.

"Some unimportant things can be placed in the front yard!" Yang Zhengshan looked left and right and said indifferently.

They brought a lot of things, but the really important things are all in the Lingquan space.

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi spent more than ten days packing the things they got from Ye Mi City, and now those things are still on the hillside in the Lingquan space.

Yu Qingyi also looked at the decoration in the room. In fact, the decoration in the room is still very good. The tables and chairs are all made of pear wood, the curtains are all brocade and silk, and all kinds of items are similar to those in Dayong.

Although this is not Dayong, the living customs on Xingyue Island are actually similar to those in Dayong.

It is slightly different from Kyoto and more similar to Jiangnan in Dayong.

The supplies on the island may not be very sufficient, but Yang Zhengshan will definitely not be lacking.

Luo Jinsong arranged everything very well. There is nothing missing here, even firewood, rice, oil, salt, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones are all available.
