Chapter 845: The night fire at Rising Sun Harbor

The bustling Rising Sun Port is always so lively no matter the day or night, even in the evening, it will still ship and unload the goods.

After all, the sailing schedule is uncertain during the sailing period. At night, if you can enter the port, it is better than staying outside, otherwise it is a joke that you will arrive at the port because you have not entered the port.

Anything can happen at sea, so whenever possible, you must enter the port when you arrive to get people and goods off the ship safely.

Night flight to the port of Rising Sun!

From far to near, Shi Kefa stood on the gunwale of the "Minke No. 323" liner, and was deeply touched by his self-cultivation.

"Yan Shaoyang really did a big business!" Shi Kefa said softly with emotion of Yan Changwu's strength.

Schaffa arrives in Southeast Asia!

Da Niu Niu has a history of law. Before Yan Changwu entered Nanjing, he was the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department. He was a counselor for confidential government affairs. He was one of the main governors of Ming Dynasty after the overthrow of the former Ming regime and before Yan Changwu came to power.

After Yan Changwu took charge of the incident, the first thing he did was to defeat the Donglin Party. Master Shi Ke studied from Zuo Guangdou, and Zuo Guangdou was the leader of the Donglin Party. Shi Kefa was not the Donglin Party. Who else was the Donglin Party? !

So Shi Kefa resigned and was exiled to Southeast Asia.

Yan Changwu is deeply taught by Mazu and he is kind. He can let go of even Tarzi, not to mention Han people. For example, although the Donglin Party is exiled, none of them will be killed.

For Shi Kefa, he was even more courteous. After all, Yan Changwu came through. Knowing the glorious deeds of the history of his space, regardless of his work ability and level, his bravery and unyielding manner in the face of Tarzi is worthy of deep admiration.

So he got on the first class cabin of the "Minke No. 323" ship, with a bedroom, a living room and a separate bathroom. The food was excellent, and there was no torture or bad treatment. (In fact, for all the exiled members of the Donglin Party, there is no torture. Add yourself and be free from abuse, you are not afraid of who can escape when you get on the boat) The treatment is pretty good!

Before entering the breakwater of Rising Sun Harbor, the sight that appeared in front of Shi Kefa was first of all two large lighthouses on the left and right coasts, which were extremely eye-catching.

Two lampposts stand on a high place, five stories high. A huge mirror and a huge brazier are placed on the top floor. The mirror reflection principle is then used to reflect sunlight during the day and the lights burning in the brazier at night. It is said The lights can shine on the seaway a hundred miles away, guiding the ships to enter the harbor safely in the dark!

According to the shipowner, what kind of "protractor" is used to measure the angle between the two lampposts. Knowing that the two lampposts are one mile away, the approximate distance to the port can be calculated using mathematical formulas!

This was unthinkable before, and Shi Kefa admired it a little bit. Although it was an ingenious skill, it was practical at sea.

Closer, when you get closer to the Rising Sun Port, you feel that the night view of this port city is extremely spectacular!

There are many tall buildings by the sea, and the lights are dazzling!

The floors are high and low, but they are generally tall and large. Many buildings are as high as ten stories or more. They are not available in the Ming Dynasty (later). The light is deep and shallow, bright and extinct, flickering and flickering, and the entrance is actually a dazzling phantom.

It's magnificent and unparalleled!

When I was approaching the pier, I realized that the situation was equally spectacular!

The spacious pier is first a long platform. On the other side of the platform, there are eight lampposts lined up. It is smaller than the lighthouse and only three stories high. It is also a big mirror and a big brazier. The mirror shines on the pier. Down, the light is as bright as day!

The lights are illuminated, attracting countless night insects flashing and dancing, making the lights appear more dazzling.

Under this kind of light, disembarking and unloading are very convenient. Even in the middle of the night, there are still six ships busy disembarking and unloading at the same time, a scene of enthusiasm.

In addition to these eight lampposts, there are many lampposts on the side of the pier, shining on the channel, the light is strong, and when you see the shadows of the ships on the channel, there are actually several ships waiting.

"Minke 323" was also waiting. The owner of the ship was also idle. He chatted with Shi Kefa: "This is a night wharf. It is used for disembarking, unloading and loading. However, it cannot be boarded (passenger boarding). It can be used during the day. This is for safety and must not be violated."

Shi Kefa is a big man, and the owner respects him.

"How much oil is needed for this!" Shi Kefa was also surprised and couldn't help asking.

You have to understand that ancient lighting is very tragic. If you can light a candle, you are a rich man.

As for this port, according to the owner of the ship, there are three hundred and sixty-five days a year. Except for typhoons, the lights on the pier are constant, and even if it is a typhoon, the light from the lighthouse will not go out!

With such a big lighthouse lamp post and seaside night lights, the cost of lamp oil for a year is an astronomical figure.

The owner of the ship is accustomed to saying: "The leader said that life is a matter of life, time is priceless, and oil can be planted, pumped, and dug out!"

The oil used is a blend of palm oil, whale oil and petroleum. Palm oil is now in strong production and is widely used by the private sector, which has promoted the huge development of nightlife and increased labor productivity.

People living in Rising Sun City are no longer at sunrise but at sunset. They can work during the day and play at night because bright oil lamps are lit in many places.

Diligent students can study books at night, work overtime at night in the factory, and work three shifts at the port, day and night.

Even women can go out at night because of the lights, without worrying about safety.

"Growing oil, pumping oil and digging oil?" Shi Kefa asked quickly.

The owner of the ship said: “I planted oil palm trees. This tree is particularly suitable for growing in the tropics. Its fruit contains high oil content and can be used as a mixed oil to ignite lighting. It can also make soap and is edible. It is also called a dowry tree. , Also known as the daughter tree, who has a daughter, can apply to the government for free land, up to ten acres, as little as one acre, for the daughter’s sake, specifically for planting oil palm, after the tree grows, the dowry will be Yes!"

"The policy of Jinshan Province is better. They have a lot of land, up to 30 acres of dowry trees!" The owner said with envy: "I heard that he had five daughters, and the government gave him 50 acres of land for him to grow oil palm. tree."

Really unheard of before, Shi Kefa listened with gusto.

In order to promote population development and eliminate the unhealthy practices of civilian killing of female infants, the Southeastern Government has strong and generous policies!

Isn’t it useless to have a daughter? Can't afford to give a dowry?

The government is here to help everyone!

"So what is the oil hit and the oil dug?" Shi Kefa came and asked with interest.

"There are big whales on the sea~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Leaders organize everyone to kill whales. Now that the navy captain wants to get the best grade in the assessment, he must command a boat to kill a whale and obtain a whale killing certificate!

This whale is full of fat oil, its firepower is very strong, and it is very resistant to burning when used for lighting. It is said that the eternal lamps in the graves of the princes use whale oil.

As for the oil that is dug up, there is oil in the rock. Leaders teach us to dig it. Some of the dug up can be used to pave roads, and some can be used directly for burning. However, they have a lot of fume and smell, so the lights in the school are used. The most whale oil. "The owner of the ship whispered: "You don't need to pay attention to the oil used in the terminal. "

Speaking is better than seeing, Shi Kefa listened with gusto.

"It's our turn to dock!" the owner said, ending the conversation.
