Chapter 97 Cost
This time, he sent a lot of prisoners and slaves and a small number of immigrants, who needed to be resettled separately. In addition to the original Zhou Feng stockade, some temporary residences should be built here for these people to live.
And when these people arrive here, Yu Xiaotian is not worried that they will run away, because so far, most places on Taiwan Island are still barren, full of indigenous people and cannibals. The island is full of snakes and insects, and the water network is dense. If ordinary people plunges in, they want to survive here successfully. The probability is basically zero, and there must be enough people to form a team to survive here.
So he is not very worried that these people will run away. The main thing is that the weather here is humid and hot, and there are many mosquitoes. If you are not careful, it may lead to the epidemic. In addition, once there is a large-scale malaria outbreak, which is called the miasma of this era, it will have a great impact on his future plans.
For this reason, he has begun to prepare in advance, sending people to the land to seek prescriptions that can prevent malaria and treat it, looking for famous doctors who can treat malaria.
Originally, if there is a golden chicken tree, it is easy to solve the disease, but at this time, the golden chicken tree is estimated to be hidden somewhere in the Americas and has not been found! So he doesn't have to think about it.
So he can only find a way to solve this problem in the interior of the Ming Dynasty. In the past, he happened to read a piece of news that Chinese scientists actually found an effective ingredient in the treatment of malaria from a native plant in the 1970s, and later extracted a kind called The drug for artemisinin also has a good therapeutic effect on malaria.
He regretted that he didn't read the relevant information carefully and figure out how to roughly purify this thing, otherwise he could solve this problem now.
However, he still asked people to go to the land and start looking for this kind of chrysanthemum, because he probably remembers that there is also a very similar grass in this kind of chrysanthemum, which is very similar to chrysanthemum, but it has no effect on malaria. He must first distinguish between true and false, otherwise it is nothing to prepare a large number of this thing. It's useless. On the contrary, it will mislead people's lives.
The reason why Taiwan Island was discovered very early, but it has not been valued by the mainland regime and has not been controlled and developed by a large number of immigrants. In fact, it is not because there are many indigenous people living here, but because of the climate and malaria here, which often encounter malaria in early migration activities. The blow forced the immigrants to finally give up continuing to expand here and flee back to land.
So no matter who, before the problem of malaria is completely solved, a large number of immigrants here will have to pay a considerable price, which is also a problem that he is currently worried about but must face.
When Yu Xiao passed by Dahuangdao a few days ago, he felt a little sad because many of the people who followed him had left this world. These days, he will think of these things from time to time. These days, he has figured out that those who achieve great things are not limited, as long as he wants to To achieve a career in this era, you must bear what ordinary people can't afford and pay a considerable price.
This is also the tuition fee he must pay on the road to success. China has had a famous saying since ancient times, "One success will lead to death!" It has already been clarified that no matter what anyone does, he must step on countless dead bones on the road to reach the peak of success. What he is going to do now is almost such a road. To develop Taiwan Island, he is doomed to make sacrifices. Otherwise, he might as well as not do it.
As for how many lives will be sacrificed, he does not know nor predict, but it is foreseeable that if he wants to control Taiwan Island and become a king of Taiwan to remain in history, the price he will pay will never be small.
Now he has just controlled a chicken cage bay. In just a few months, many people have died here. First, he led people to kill Zhou Feng and many of his men, and then transported labor to build forts here.
These days, there were pirates and indigenous people, and more than a dozen people were killed. In addition, when the fort was built, people had to be sent to cut wood and quarry, and several people died in accidents. These deaths are only part of these days, just because they were bitten by snakes and insects, resulting in poisoning and death. The number of people has also exceeded ten. Generally speaking, about ten people die here every month. Such a number of deaths is the result of careful precautions.
In the future, he will transfer more and more immigrants to this side. After there are more people, he will definitely expand around. At that time, the number of dead people may be more. If he is afraid of the dead, it's better to slap his buttocks back to the land now. While he has money now, find a place to whitewash his identity and buy a large piece of land. It's good to be a landlord.
So now his heart has become cold and hardened. No matter how much he will pay in the future, he will decide on this Taiwan island. Unless he hangs up, there will be no variables in this plan.
On the whole, Blackhead is still very dedicated to doing things here, but this guy's level is limited, a little rough, and not very considerate. Some things are not very meticulous, especially the layout of people living on the shore is too loose, and it is easy to be exploited by people, otherwise he will not be a bunch of dirt. The sneak attack was successful, killing several people and capturing a woman.
After Yu Xiaotian saw it, he put forward some of his opinions to improve the blackhead and classify the various personnel currently transported here. On the one hand, it is easy to guard, and on the other hand, it is also convenient to strengthen the guard to avoid being touched again.
The black head scratched his head and agreed with a smile. He was a little embarrassed. Yu Xiaotian did not blame him too much. After all, this guy used to be a fisherman and came out with him. It took less than two years. After all, there were too few things he could learn and lacked organizational skills. It was because he was here to be in charge. Because this guy is his hardcore cronies, not his most powerful.
In addition, Yu Xiaotian also deeply felt that there were too few capable generals at present, and the available talents were really limited. In many cases, he could only pick a general among the lame man and drive the ducks to the shelves, so he put the black head here to preside over the affairs here.
But this time he chose a man named Sun Baoqiang from his men (the dragon set character began to appear!) This man used to be Wang Hong's subordinate. After being taken over by Yu Xiaotian, he was appointed as a captain. After this period of frequent contact, Yu Xiaotian found that this man was good at control, more meticulous and rigorous than others. He was willing to use his brain to take care of his men on the ship quite Yes, his ship has performed outstandingly in all drills.
So Yu Xiaotian transferred him to his sea wolf as a captain and became his personal follower. He has been observing his performance for several months.
Now he can be sure that this Sun Baoqiang is indeed extraordinary, so after thinking about it, he decided to emphasize Sun Bao to Jilong Bay and temporarily serve as a deputy for the blackhead to make up for the shortcomings of the blackhead. In the next step, if this guy can do better, Yu Xiaotian decided to entrust him. Ren.
Sun Baoqiang is not stupid. Although he was put here by Yu Xiaotian, he is very clear that this is not to decentralise him, but to put him here to test his ability. If he performs well enough, his future will be bright in the future, and he will soon step into the senior management of the Sea Wolf Group, so for filial piety He was very grateful for what God arranged for him. On the way here, he asked Yu Xiaotian many times about what to do here in the future.
During this period, Sun Baoqiang has found that Yu Xiaotian has invested a lot of effort in the Taiwanese side, and many things are tilting towards this side. Although it is not as important as Funing on the surface, in essence, it will be the most important base for their sea wolf in the future.
If he can do something beautiful here now, then for him, he will finalize his position in the sea wolf in the future, so he came here this time and prepared to do a big job.
Xiaotian also secretly warned him that although he came here, the master here was still blackhead. What he did was to assist the blackhead, not replace it. He was not allowed to have any conflict with the blackhead. If the blackhead did something wrong and did not listen to the advice and went his own way, then he could send people. Go back to find him, Yu Xiaotian and say that he will deal with it.
After listening to this, Sun Baoqiang was deeply convinced and firmly remembered Yu Xiaotian's instructions. Sun Baoqiang has seen that Yu Xiaotian's least favorite thing is internal fighting. He will never tolerate the fight in his subordinates, and Yu Xiaotian's extremely high-level things are the most taboo to commit.
So Sun Baoqiang promised Yu Xiaotian that he would never have any conflict with the blackhead here. He must assist the blackhead and do a good job here to share the worries of Yu Xiaotian.
Yu Xiaotian was also relieved about this. After arriving here, he told the blackhead about Sun Baoqiang.
Blackhead was a little anxious because there was no suitable helper here. I heard that Yu Xiaotian emphasized Sun Bao and shared some affairs for him. He was suddenly happy and had no resistance at all. It was a lot of excitement to pull Sun Baoqiang.
Seeing that the blackhead pulled Sun Baoqiang heartlessly and laughed, Yu Xiaotian was relieved. With the two of them cooperating with each other here, he was much more relieved about the things in Jilong Bay. The bravery of the blackhead and Sun Baoqiang's carefulness, if the two cooperate well, they can learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses. Things in Chicken Cage Bay will become smoother in the future.
So after arranging Sun Baoqiang, he began to discuss with Blackhead what to do here these days.
Although it was attacked by a group of pirates a month ago, the number of pirates operating around is still relatively limited, and the attacking pirates have basically been maimed by blackheads, so there is no need to retaliate against them.
And at present, the focus of their activities here is not to plunder the sea east of Taiwan members, so this matter is not considered.
In the end, Yu Xiaotian still focused his eyes on the group of indigenous tribes that came here to kill people the other day and decided to teach these indigenous people a lesson before he left this time.
