More than a decade passed in a blink of an eye.

Xu Xuan and Xu Rumei also arrived on the island a few years ago.

After the two of them arrived, An Ning organized a marriage for Xu Xuan and Xiao Ke.

Both of them can be considered older young men and women, and if they don’t get married, they will be old.

Because the island is being constructed everywhere, Xiao Ke is so busy that he doesn't touch the ground. Even if he becomes a relative, he doesn't have time to live a good life with Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan didn't care much, he let Xiao Ke do it.

Xiao Ke was busy with political affairs, while Xu Xuan was busy with education.

He is a person who can calm down. He is never impetuous no matter what situation he encounters, and he can calm down and study. It is quite appropriate for people like him to engage in education.

Xu Xuan worked as a teacher in the school and taught a group of children. After teaching for several years, the school was expanded into a school, and Xu Xuan became the first principal.

Two years after Xiaoke got married, he gave birth to a pair of twins, one son and one daughter. After three years, he gave birth to another son.

The three children Xiao Ke gave birth to are different from those of other people's families. Other people's brothers all have the same surname. She gave birth to three children, and three children are three surnames.

The previous son and daughter were named Su and Xu. The younger son was born later.

In this way, both General Manager Su and Xu Rumei were satisfied.

Now, the three children in the family are running around to play. Originally, Xu Xuan said that he would let the children go to school to study, but these three children are very strange and have to go there shortly after entering the school.

When the children came back, An Ning asked about the reason. According to the children, the things taught in the school were boring, and the classmates were not fun either. Anyway, it was better to learn at home.

If the child is unwilling to go, An Ning doesn’t have to force him to go. Since he thinks it’s good to learn at home, then just study at home.

Anyway, An Ning has plenty of time now, so she started to take over her children's learning tasks.

After so many years, the island is developing rapidly, while the situation in the Great Zhou is getting worse and worse.

Emperor Chengqing became old and his health was getting worse day by day, and the princes below grew up, and the battle for the throne became more and more intense.

Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ke both sent people to stare at the Great Zhou Dynasty. From time to time, people sent out would send some news back. It is said that the eighth prince below called the most, and the other one was the eleventh prince. The two sides fought so hard that the sky was dark.

On the contrary, the Fourth Prince has become more and more indifferent over the years. He does not live much in the capital, but in the village outside. He has never seen his people for many years.

Because of this, no matter which prince is, he is not hostile to him. Emperor Chengqing is particularly at ease with him and goes to his farm to relax from time to time.

The people sent to the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past came again, saying that they were staring at the Fourth Prince and found that the Fourth Prince had cast weapons privately and secretly made money. Through several concubines in the backyard, he had a close contact with the wealthy merchants in Jiangnan. He had accumulated a lot of money and used the money to train many spies.

The fourth prince was silent on the surface, and he secretly planted nails everywhere. There were spies he sent to each prince's mansion, and even many people in the palace were bribed by him.

Several generals from the Five City Military and Ma Si went down with the Fourth Prince in private, and the eunuch who served Emperor Chengqing in the palace was also the fourth prince.

Judging from this situation, civil strife is about to break out.

After receiving the letter, An Ning and Xiao Yuan discussed going back to Dazhou and took the opportunity to sow discord.

They told Xiaoke about this, and Xiaoke also felt that he could go back at this time.

If it really caused civil strife in the Great Zhou Dynasty, they could take the opportunity to attack from the sea.

The Great Zhou Dynasty also implemented a policy of closing the country to the public, and always restricting merchants from going to sea. The sea route was not smooth. They never thought about what would happen if the country next to them opened the country's door from the sea, because they had not considered this matter, then the chances of winning from sea route attack would be great.

An Ning and Xiao Yuan’s past this time is equivalent to exploring the way.

Xiaoke held the map and gestured with Xiao Yuan.

"Dad, you and my mother landed from Tianjin on a boat and understood the situation of the garrison along the way. If one or two officers could be bribed, that would be great."

Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, let me see if there is a fort there. I haven't been back for many years. I don't know what happened to the sea ships of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Xiaoke thought for a while: "Take those three too, so that they can have a long experience."

An Ning lit Xiaoke's forehead: "You, are your child yours? Just let them follow the road, and you are not afraid of danger."

Xiaoke laughed: "Aren't you two here? If you are here, what danger can they have? Besides, there are still few ships we sent to Dazhou in the past ten years, and we can't even get along well with the route."

Things were decided, and then An Ning and Xiao Yuan began to prepare.

The boats are all ready-made, and they don’t have to bring too much stuff, just bring some medicine and things that children need to use on the way.

It took only ten days to go from discussion to departure. In a blink of an eye, the two of them set off on a boat with their three children.

As the three children left, General Manager Su and Xu Rumei were a little unbearable.

Manager Su misses the child, and Xu Rumei also wants it, but there is no way to think about it anymore. If everyone is at sea, can we still take it back?

After waiting for half a month, the two of them really couldn't think so they took a merchant ship to Dazhou, and they followed them back together.

An Ning and Xiao Yuanzhen landed from Tianjin by boat, and waited to the land of the Great Zhou Dynasty, An Ning was a little uncomfortable.

The main reason is that the island is developing rapidly. If you don’t go out for ten days and half a month, you will feel like you’ll be different when you go out again.

Anyway, after a while, several roads will be built. I don’t know where to build a large shop or a restaurant, or where to build a new residential area.

The cement roads on the island are now extremely smooth. Whether in towns or villages, there are spacious, flat and clean roads. Due to the good weather, fertile land and planting improved crops, there is a bumper harvest every year, and farmers can’t finish their food.

There is no worries about eating or wearing. With An Ning and Xiao Yuan in there, there will naturally be an industrial revolution. Various textile machines for water conservancy steam have long been invented. There are more than a dozen large textile factories now. The fabrics produced are not only supplied to the residents of the island, but also sold to various countries. Most of the clothes worn by the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are made of materials from the island.

Before An Ning and Xiao Yuan left, the first railway had just been built on the island and the first steam train was opened to navigation.

It can be said that the island is extremely prosperous and the people live a particularly good life.

The Great Zhou Dynasty looked old and decadent. Whatever An Ning and Xiao Yuan looked like before leaving? They are still the same now, almost unchanging.

An Ning and Xiao Yuan also carefully observed the journey from Tianjin to Beijing. They didn't need to inquire about many levels and places where the troops were stationed. They were almost the same as they were more than ten years ago. The location had not changed, the weapons and equipment had not changed, and many of the weapons had rust.

An Ning also discovered that the armor worn by some veterans was not made of iron, but made of paper.

She told Xiao Yuan about this.

"This is also without foreign enemies. Otherwise, I would be afraid of internal and external troubles, and I might be devastated at this moment."
