The branch canals are connected to the four channels, and the water network is denser, and the branches and old waters are everywhere have a deeper meaning. A spiritual canal, a magical stroke of the pre-Qin Dynasty, connects the two major water systems of the Pearl River and the Yangtze River, and runs through the three major regions of Nanzhong, Jingnan and Lingnan.

What Liu Bei had to do was to work meticulously and crawl and pick it up (pá shū tī jué). The waterways of Ji Kingdom imitate the Ji Kingdom, connecting the rivers and streams across the Yi District into a three-level water network. They could travel ten thousand stones, thousands stones, and hundreds of stones of machinery and ships. All of this matters were left to the full responsibility of the Shuiheng Duwei.

In the Jiangnan area, there were dense water networks, and later generations were known as the "water town and marsh country". Water transportation is the most economical and efficient form of transportation nowadays. Rivers are also the most important transportation channel for water town and marsh country. In the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, they continued to penetrate the Jiangnan channel. People and baggage were mostly transported through the canals. The result was twice as good as half of the effort.

The Ji Kingdom is in the north, along the near-sea route, entering Panyu, Hepu, and even Xuwen, and comparing the scenery. Then you can go to the inland river channel and then you can sail through the Sannanyi District. There is no need to go to the Yangtze River, but then go south again. The Ji Kingdom Haishi fleet will go the opposite direction. First enter the Jianghuai River, then branch north and south. Along the Xiang River, Yuan River, then go south, then west to Hepu and Panyu, ride the wind to the sea, and go north to Ji Kingdom. It forms a great circle of business roads.

Just dig a canal to connect the southern Hepu water and the northern Gui water. It is like opening the Ren and Du meridians, and the true energy will circulate from then on. There is no doubt about the importance of Hepu Port. In such a good port, the Luoyang court will not be willing to cut it to King Ji. After the Ji Kingdom's Lianggong made an on-site exploration, he circled the Lishui (Qinjiang) (Maoweihai) 180 miles away from Hepu Port to build a new port. The canals are dug to connect the Lishui and the Nanlian River (Lianjiang), connecting Hepu Port, and entering the Hepu Water Road. There is also "Lishui in Cangwu, surrounding the Jiuyi Mountain." Therefore, this water is "Southern Lishui". So Liu Bei named it "Nanligang".

The river channel in the south is winding, and the water comes out of "60,000 mountains (100,000 mountains). It is measured by the "Jinli Car" on the boat. It is about 430 miles long. The land in the upper valley is fertile, and there are many flowers and fruits in the forest. The Yue people along the coast of the South Lishui, build long houses on the waterfront, and the boat is moored under the corridor. The ridges are full of dried fruits, and the side yard is full of fish. Commonly used pottery is called "continuous cans". There are two-continuous cans, three-continuous cans, and four-continuous cans, which are typical Yue people's containers. The cans are divided into different categories, filled with dried fruits and fresh fruits.

Fruits. There are often several boys gathered in the corridor and ate the delicious food in the jar. Nowadays, the jars are the fruit boxes of later generations. "Wei Tuo (King of Nanyue Zhao Tuo) presented Gaozu's marshy fish and lychees, and Gaozu rewarded four pineapple brocades." So, "Nan Shanyu came to the court and gave imperial food and orange orange longan lychees." In other words, the specialties of Lingnan nowadays have been widely sold in the capital. Just imagine, if there is no smooth water and land, how can Lingnan summer fruits and vegetables be transported thousands of miles, and when they arrive in Luoyang, they are still fresh and edible.

A glimpse of the eyes shows that the whole leopard is. The convenience of the Great Han waterway is far beyond imagination. The Central Plains is full of southern fruits, so that "the people are tired of oranges and pomelos". They are tired of eating them. In addition, "rhinoceros horns, elephant teeth, jade, pearls", etc., are also attracting attention from the world. "Pearls and elephant teeth come out of Guilin", "a bow and a thousand bells of millet". Hepu is the place where pearls are produced. Lingnan scenery continues to move north: "Miscellaneous fragrances and fine kudzu, many bright pearls, big shells, wandering, jade, tortoiseshell, rhinoceros elephant treasures, strange things and fruits, banana evil longan, all year round."

And the Central Plains products also follow Lingnan.

The Han people went south to sow ironware, pottery, oxen, seeds, skills, food, clothing, food, clothing, housing and transportation, and spread to Lingnan. This greatly promoted the local progress. The trend of harmony prevailed and blew all over the river.

The Yishang here came out of the side branches and planted them out of the ancient Nanyue Kingdom. All the people of the tribes took the "Hepu Pearls" as their business. "Hepu people were good at traveling, and they were over ten years old to teach people how to water. Officials prohibited the people from picking pearls. Those who skillfully stole the water squatted at the bottom of the water to scrape clams, and they got good pearls and swallowed them out."

"(Hepu) County does not produce grain, but the sea produces jewelry, and compares the territory of the Jung Site, often trades trades and trades grain. At the beginning, the slaughter guards were often greedy and filthy. The strange people were seeking it. They did not know how to record the truth. Zhu gradually moved to the Jung Site border. So he did not travel, and the people had no resources, and the poor starved to death in the Tao. (Meng) tasted the officials, and the rebellion was broken before the rebellion, and they sought benefits from the people. Before they had been over the year, they returned to Zhu and returned. The people all reversed their business and traded goods, and were called gods."

It means that the coastal areas of Hepu are rich in pearls, but they do not produce grain. Local people all make a living by picking pearls, and exchange them for grain in exchange for grain from Jiaozhi. Because the income from picking pearls is extremely high, local officials took the opportunity to corruption and exploit the pearls. They blindly forced the pearls to overfish, regardless of the growth rules of pearls and clams. Even the pearls and clams gradually moved to Jiaozhi County Sea. The number of fish that can be caught in Hepu became increasingly rare, and "Pearls fled to Jiaozhi". The income of pearls and clams was greatly reduced, and many people starved to death halfway because they had no money to buy grain. Emperor Shun appointed Mengchang as the prefect of Hepu. After Mengchang took office, all the previous problems were eliminated. In less than a year, pearls and clams flourished, and "Hepu pearls returned."

People at that time already understood that mountains and forests were closed, and the sea was forbidden to raise pearls. "Will you not get fishing when you exhaust the lake? Then there will be no fish next year; will you not get fields next year? Will you not get animals next year." Therefore, "the law of the previous kings was to fish when they did not dry up the lake, and to hunt when they did not burn forests."

Don’t, “fish when you run out of your lake”. Don’t, “burn the forest and the fields.”

The envoys of Baiyi went north to Ji State, and everyone in the south knew about it. He heard that Ji State wanted to build a port and channel here. His daily wage was 200 yuan. The general Yi was overjoyed.

"If you pick pearls for three months, you will pray with five animals. If the temple sacrifice is not lost, the wind will stir the sea water, or there may be a big fish on the left and right of the clam." Even so, you will often encounter life danger. "Unfortunately, you will encounter a bad fish (shark), and a wisp of blood floats on the water surface. The boatman cries and knows that it has been buried in the fish's belly. There are also hopes that the evil fish will float quickly, and it will hurt the thigh and the arms will be broken." Therefore, during the Tang and Song dynasties, the people of Hepu called the pearl pond (note ①) "Wangzhu pond".

After picking pearls in March, I heard that I could earn 200 yuan a day, and the people along the coast came over the boats.

The commander of Shuiheng was still working through the canal and built a gate, connecting the waterway. Seeing that the number of barbarians gathered more and more, the craftsmen on the boat sent the clutch back to report while saying kind words to comfort him.

Zhou Hui did not dare to ask for help. He hurriedly abandoned his boat and landed on the shore, crossed Guimen Pass, and rushed into Hepu Port.

It happened to meet Qu Hongjin back to the boat.

A row of beards in the cabin are gray and gray, and they are over fifty years old. They are the capable ministers who have left their names in history to govern the water.
