Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1869, Beautiful Hawaii

Blue sky and white clouds, blue sea waves.

On the vast sea, a series of islands are inlaid in the blue sea like pearls. The scenery is beautiful, the seabirds are flying, and the fields are magnificent and turbulent, just like a paradise.

"How did the Hawaiian Islands get discovered?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the island in front of him with a telescope. The scenery was beautiful, lush and very beautiful.

It is hard to imagine that there are such beautiful islands in such a vast Pacific Ocean.

Along the way, for more than ten days, no island was found. Only here, in the center of the Pacific Ocean, there are archipelagos, and there are indigenous groups on this island.

It is really incredible, in the era when there was no more advanced navigation technology, how did the people here arrive at these islands, and finally thrive here.

"Your Majesty's island was also accidentally discovered by a ship. Some ships will deviate from their course when they are sailing in the sea due to the influence of the storm. Once the course is not corrected in time, it is very likely that the sailing place will be far away. It is also one of the reasons why there are still new islands discovered all over the world."

"This is how the Hawaiian Islands were discovered, and the name of Hawaii was also translated from what the natives of the island said."

Liu Jin explained to Emperor Hongzhi.

To be honest, there is nothing unusual about discovering the Hawaiian Islands. What is really unusual is the indigenous people on this island.

This place is far away from the mainland, and even the nearest land would take more than ten or twenty days to reach. In the era when there was no advanced navigation technology and shipbuilding technology, I really don’t know how to get here.

It is unbelievable to get here just by using simple canoes, small rafts and the like.

But in such a place, there are still humans in it, and they have multiplied and formed tribes, and they even attack and compete with each other.

In history, the tribes of the Hawaiian Islands were finally unified, but it was still cheap for the beautiful fruit people, and finally incorporated this place into their territory by force.

So where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Even on such an island far away from the world, the struggle between tribes and people still exists, and there is no such thing as a paradise.

"There are still natives here?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, his eyes widened slightly.

From Emperor Hongzhi's point of view, this place is far away from the mainland, and there is no mainland for many miles around. How did the aborigines get here?

"Not only are there, but there are quite a few of them. Up to now, I, Ming, have only reached an agreement with them. We leased one of the islands to build a port for the repair of ships. The other islands, our Ming people, temporarily You can't go there, unless you have received an invitation."

Liu Jin said with a smile.

"That's right, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, far away from the land, how did the aborigines here get here?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he immediately asked with a smile.

"I don't know this anymore, and I'm afraid no one will know how their ancestors got here."

"It can only be said that everything is possible. Now we have found some indigenous people on many islands in the South Pacific Ocean. These islands are also far away from the land, and we don't know how these indigenous people arrived."

"Perhaps it is very likely that they migrated slowly from generation to generation along the island chains in the South Seas, and eventually moved farther and farther, and finally reached these islands in the deep Pacific Ocean."

Liu Jin thought for a while and gave an explanation for future generations' speculation.

Regarding the origins of the aborigines on the Pacific islands, scientists of later generations have carried out many demonstrations. Compared with scientists, they have analyzed through genetic technology, and finally concluded that Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand have already been found on these South Pacific islands. The genes of the aborigines are very similar to those of people in South Africa.

It is speculated that in ancient times, there may have been an extremely cold period when large areas of the ocean were frozen. Through these huge ice sheets, their ancestors migrated to these places.

Of course, the credibility of this speculation is not high. What is really more credible is that the aboriginals on these islands have mastered relatively mature navigation technology and the technology of distinguishing directions through astrology, and finally gradually conquered the depths of the Pacific Ocean. islands at.

"The world is really wonderful, there are too many, too many mysteries waiting for us to discover."

"It's incredible that there are still indigenous people living in the depths of the Pacific Ocean."

After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi shook his head in admiration.

"Yeah, the world is huge, and there are too many, too many wonderful things."

Liu Jin also nodded and sighed.

The origin of human beings has always been a mystery. Do you believe in the theory of evolution, imaginary creationism, or alienism?
Even in later generations, everyone is still arguing, and the answers given by science have never been credible or convincing to everyone.

There are still many, many mysteries waiting to be discovered in this world, but often one discovers a layer of secrets and is quickly attracted by new secrets, as if one will never know the truth of this world.

Three large ships slowly moored at the port here on the Big Island of the Hawaiian Islands.

The Big Island is the largest of all the islands here. At present, hundreds of Ming people have settled on the island. They have built a simple port here, and at the same time provide supplies and help for passing ships.

There are not many valuable specialties and items here in the Hawaiian Islands. Its greatest value is to provide fresh water and food supplies for passing ships.

The people of Ming Dynasty leased some land here at an extremely cheap price, built a simple port, and stored materials such as grain, fuel oil, and coal, and also planted vegetables, fruits, rice, sugar cane, etc. on the island, which was convenient. Supplies and lives of passing ships.

The arrival of the three large ships made the Ming people on the island immediately busy, helping to prepare resting inns, food, fresh water, and replenishing fuel, etc.

These Daming people on the island are all fellows affiliated to Tianjin Ocean Trading Co., and only Tianjin Ocean Trading Co. will prepare to do these things. It is convenient for passing ships, and it is also convenient for their own business transactions.

Of course, these things don't need Liu Jin and Emperor Hongzhi to worry about. When they arrived on the island, Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jin also got on their horses and began to wander leisurely on the island.

I have to say that the scenery of Hawaii is really nothing to say.

There is no pollution here, everything is very natural, the scenery is charming, coupled with the tropical area located in the center of the Pacific Ocean, the rainfall is abundant, and the vegetation is lush, which makes the scenery here very charming.

After seeing the seascape for more than ten days in a row, Liu Jin and Emperor Hongzhi happily went around on land, enjoying the beautiful scenery here, relaxing and preparing for the next ten days. Prepare for a boring voyage at sea.
