Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1939, Going to Colonial South Africa

At a pier in Tianjin Port, Liu Jin, Li Zhen, and the Chen family all came here to see off Liu Da and Chen Xue's family. They are about to take a boat to the South African colony. It is not known when the farewell will be possible. See you again.

Even though the technology is getting more and more developed, and the means of transportation are getting more and more advanced, but in the era when the plane did not appear, it was still very difficult to travel tens of thousands of miles away.

Despite all his reluctance, Liu Jin still let Liu Da set off for the South African colony after the Lantern Festival.

My family is no ordinary family.

He is the Duke of Liao of Ming Dynasty and the chief assistant of the cabinet, and he has an extremely huge industry under his command.

No matter which one is concerned, they have already achieved an extreme, and they must also consider the future of the family.

Eggs cannot be put in one basket, and one's own children cannot all stay in Daming, they must be scattered all over the world and in various fields.

The eldest son, Liu Xin, will inherit his title as Duke of Liao, the second son, Liu Da, will inherit the property of the South African colony, the third will inherit the property of the Western United Commercial Bank, the fourth will be placed in the Golden Continent, and the fifth will be left behind. In charge of many industries in Daming and so on.

Liu Jin has already made plans for each child, for their future and for the whole family.

So even if he is reluctant, he still wants Liu Da to go to the South African colony, to experience in the South African colony, to expand his family's influence in the South African colony, and to hold this huge industry in his own hands.

"Father!"

"Please be respected by my son, my son is going to the South African colony, I can't be filial by your side, please take care of yourself!"

Liu Da came to Liu Jin's side, knelt down heavily, and bowed deeply.

"Hmm~"

"You have to take care of yourself too."

Liu Jin's eyes were slightly moist, and in his heart he really wanted to say that you just stay and forget it, just be a rich man in this capital, eat and drink, and live a chic life. endless.

But Liu Jin never said it, because Liu Jin knew that this would only harm his children. They have their own talents, ambitions, and ideals.

It is of no benefit to him to stay in Daming, only by going to the vast sky outside can he have his own blue sky where he can fly freely.

At this moment, I am just like countless parents in Ming Dynasty who sent their children overseas and outside the customs. Although they have all kinds of reluctance, they still have to accept this calmly, because everything is for the future of their children.

Soon, it was time for the ship to depart.

"Go ahead, send a telegram if you need anything."

Liu Jin waved his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Li Zhen beside him was already crying and his eyes were red.

She clearly wanted Liu Jin to keep Liu Da's family here, but she never said so, because he knew that this might be the best arrangement and way for Liu Da.

If he stayed in the capital, he would not be able to inherit the title of the Duke of Liao. His father was the chief minister of the cabinet and the Duke of Liao. If it is a small official, it is unlikely to reach a high position, and staying in Daming will have a great influence on Liu Jin.

As for An Anxin being a rich man, this is unacceptable to her. Liu Da is a very talented person, and also a very ambitious and ideal person. It is impossible for her to be willing to be a parasite for the rest of her life. .

So let’s go out, and it’s okay to go out, the sky is high and the birds are flying, the sea is wide and the fish are leaping, and we can do a lot of great things in the South African colony.

"woooo~"

Soon, with the sound of the whistle on the ship, the ship began to slowly leave the dock.

On the ship, passengers kept waving their hands to bid farewell to relatives and friends who came to see them off.

Liu Da and Chen Xue stood together, waving their hands to bid farewell to their relatives. After this farewell, I am afraid that they will not see each other again in a short time.

The boat went further and further away, gradually disappearing between the water and the sky.

Liu Jin kept standing, watching silently, until the ship disappeared completely, Liu Jin still refused to leave.

As a time traveler, sometimes it is difficult to understand the feeling of parting.

Reading some farewell poems written by the ancients, it is always difficult for future generations to empathize with them, but now, Liu Jin can truly empathize with them. The pain of parting is really hard to calm down for a long time.

Liu Jin even regretted his decision a bit, why did he have to go to the South African colony?

Is this unfair to Liu Da?

He is only eighteen years old now, and in future generations, he is only at the age when he has just started to go to university, but now he has to take his wife and children away from his parents and go to South Africa thousands of miles away The colonies struggled alone.

There is also my own grandson, which is only a few months old, and now he is going to travel to distant South Africa by ship with his parents.

People in this era have endured too much and too much too early. People in future generations, let alone eighteen years old, many even in their thirties are still parents' babies and have not grown up. child.

But in this era of Ming people, many of them become parents in their teens, and they already have to bear a lot of things like adults. As for those in their thirties, they are the age of their grandparents.

Liu Jin returned to his home with a trace of self-blame and guilt, and took out a portrait of the family portrait during the Chinese New Year. This portrait was painted by Da Vinci, and there were five paintings in total. Liu Da brought a copy I went to the South African colony, and there are still four copies left in the house.

"I wish I had a camera."

Liu Jin looked at the portrait of the family portrait, although Da Vinci's skills are very superb, but the portrait is a portrait after all, and it is not satisfactory after all.

On the other side, on the ship heading for South Africa, Liu Da also kept looking in the direction of Tianjin, and refused to return to the room for a long time.

"Go back, it's cold outside, don't catch a cold."

Chen Xue draped Liu Da's arctic fox fur coat over her shoulders.

"I've wronged you~"

Liu Da hugged Chen Xue and said.

"What are you talking about?"

"I will marry a chicken and follow the chicken and marry a dog and follow the dog. I will go wherever you go. I will follow you for the rest of my life and will never be separated."

Chen Xue nestled in Liu Da's arms, looked in the direction of Tianjin and said.

Where do I have my parents, my brother, and my relatives and friends, but now I am following my husband wholeheartedly to South Africa, thousands of miles away, and no one knows what the future will be like.

Liu Da went back to the room on the boat, took out the family portrait he had brought, and looked at his grandma, his father and mother, as well as his brothers and sisters.

Feelings of longing emerged all of a sudden, but soon he tried his best to control his emotions, took out a map of the world region, looked in the direction of South Africa, and studied it carefully.

According to the itinerary, it will take Liu Da three months to reach the South African colony, which is an extremely long journey.
