Lu Yunxing was also a little excited, but after studying for many years and visiting prefectures, he had become much more composed. "Going to Wanzhou Prefecture is to the north of the county town, and the scenery is a bit different from here."

As the sun sets, the river glistens with light, creating a breathtaking scene.

As Lu Yunfeng gazed at the setting sun, an overwhelming sense of homesickness suddenly welled up within him. He also missed Qin Xiaozhou. "Remember your sister-in-law's instructions, don't just focus on having fun."

"I know, brother. I'll observe as I go. People's clothes and their environment are related, so I won't make a wasted trip," Lu Yan said enthusiastically.

Lu Yunxing seemed to be inspired by Lu Yan's words, and took out rough paper to take notes.

Lu Yan leaned closer and saw that the paper was filled with descriptions of the surrounding mountains and rivers. "Second brother, why are you writing these down?"

Lu Yunxing said, “The rivers are vast, and the landscape, temperature and climate vary from place to place, so the methods of managing the rivers will certainly be different. I will make a good note of them so that I can look them up in books or ask my teacher how to manage them.”

"Wow." Lu Yan's eyes lit up. "Second brother, you're amazing. If you become a high-ranking official in the future, you'll definitely be able to manage a region exceptionally well."

Lu Yunxing's ears turned slightly red and his cheeks burned, but he still said with a righteous expression, "Studying is meant to serve the people."

After two days of traveling from east to south, one could faintly feel the sea breeze blowing from the southeast, which was hot and humid.

None of them had ever stayed on a ship for so long before. They hadn't been on land for three days in a row, and they had long lost their initial enthusiasm and leisure. They were all listless and had no appetite.

Captain Li laughed, "It's still five days until we reach Jinling. Why don't we rest in the county town ahead?"
