Chapter 289 Self-recommendation
After listening to this, Yu Xiaotian pondered slightly and pondered the time in his heart. It has been five years since the apocalypse, and so far, he has only set up a shelf in freshwater and chicken cages. In fact, his strength is still limited, especially in terms of military strength. On the one hand, he has to control such a large territory. The noodles also need to take into account both chicken cages and fresh water. It's true that it's a little impossible to pull the bolt.
And the speed of immigration is far less than he expected. He hopes that within a year, the number of freshwater and chicken cage immigrants can reach 10,000, so that the number of immigrants in chicken cages and freshwater villages will reach a certain base. In this way, his control over northern Taiwan will be more stable.
If you continue to rely on word of mouth or buy in a step-by-by-mouth way, it is indeed slow, expensive and cumbersome.
Therefore, Fang An's suggestion is also reasonable. Although strong use will bring certain side effects and may have a certain negative impact on stability in the future, leaving some hidden dangers, these are all problems that need to be solved slowly in the future.
In addition, Lin Yiyang, who has been reading less, also raised a problem at this time, that is, the sea wolf has now controlled fresh water, chicken cages, and the big island of Nanri Island. The number of immigrants is also increasing, but a systematic management has not been formed, that is to say, the sea wolf has not been formed in these places. Effective administration.
If the Sea Wolf Group only wants to be comfortable with other colleagues, it doesn't matter what they want to do about the territory they control.
Now, after seeing the situation on the freshwater side, Lin Yiyang has actually been secretly surprised. He feels that Yu Xiaotian's mind is much bigger than he expected.
Although he also felt that Yu Xiaotian had a big heart and seemed to want to achieve a great cause, where the pattern of Nanri Island is placed? No matter how big Nanri Island is, it is at best an island near the mainland. No matter how it is, it is still under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. No matter how to toss it, it is impossible to cut Nanri Island from the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
However, Taiyuan Island is different from Nanri Island. It is really too big, which greatly exceeded his previous expectations for here. According to Yu Xiaotian, the area of Taiyuan Island is almost as large as that of Fujian Province, so his efforts to manage fresh water and chicken cages are not as simple as a small toss.
Although the scope of his control is still very limited, as the number of immigrants increases, the sea wolf's control area will become larger and larger. He dares not easily assert how far Yu Xiaotian will develop next.
In a word, he felt that Yu Xiaotian was playing a big game of chess. So far, Yu Xiaotian is only in the layout, while Danshui and the chicken cage are only two pieces he clicked on this big chessboard. Nanri Island is at best the first to fall. What will Yu Xiaotian do in the future? That's really It's hard to say.
And at present, Yu Xiaotian does not hesitate to devote his money to industry, commerce and immigration, which is completely different from hoarding wealth like other peers, which shows that Yu Xiaotian wants far more than he expected before.
After he lay down last night, he has been thinking about this matter. The more he thinks about it, the more surprised he is. If it goes on like this, once Yu Xiaotian controls the whole Taiwan Member Island one day, he may even rely on his military strength to fight against the current Ming court. As for the possibility of splitting the territory and sitting on the ground, there is a possibility of being king.
Thinking of this, Lin Yiyang first broke out in a cold sweat and sat up from the bunk, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt a little excited.
He asked himself, why did he take the risk of following Yu Xiaotian, a pirate, who had completely broken his career in the Ming Dynasty?
Lin Yiyang doesn't feel that he just wants to have three meals a day, or be as simple as rich and noble. He thinks that he has been studying for many years. If he goes on like this and live a mediocre life, he is really not very willing to live a mediocre life. That's why he went to Nanri Island at the beginning and read Yu Xiaotianjing. After Nanri Island, he finally accepted Yu Xiaotian's invitation and began to leave the reason for following Yu Xiaotian to work.
He took a fancy to Yu Xiaotian's territory and wanted to personally test how capable he was. In the past, when he was studying, he always fantasized that one day he could show what he had learned, become a member of the court, and even be able to worship and achieve a career.
Now, as in today's official career, he has no possibility, and at this time, Yu Xiaotian provided him with such a world that can give him a chance to show what he has learned, which can't help but make Lin Yiyang completely excited.
So last night he lay in ** and thought for a long time, and felt that now he needed to show some real talent to learn.
Today, when Yu Xiaotian and others sat there talking about how to speed up immigration, Lin Yiyang's mood was already very different from yesterday.
In the past, he also had a feeling of being a bystander. He saw that Yu Xiaotian was busy, but only when he needed it, he helped to come up with ideas. It was more like a passive state and did not take the initiative to consciously regard himself as a part of the sea wolf.
But yesterday when he figured out that Yu Xiaotian was going to play a big game of chess, he began to involuntarily adjust his mentality, completely put himself in this circle, and began to really put himself in the place for the future development of the sea wolf.
"Big head! Please listen to the next word! I think what Commander Fang said is reasonable! A man does something and does something, and sometimes he really needs to do whatever he can to achieve his goal!
I admire and understand that the big head is kind-hearted, and the big head obviously does not want to attract the government's attention to our sea wolves. There is nothing wrong with doing so!
But at present, the big man must be eager to gain a foothold in freshwater and chicken cages. Recruiting horses and shipbuilding alone is not enough to make the big man gain a foothold here.
And at present, there are so many workshops and boat houses here, and we need manpower everywhere, which makes our current manpower everywhere.
It is obviously a drop in the bucket to continue to recruit immigrants or buy slaves to increase the manpower here as before.
So since it is an extraordinary period at present, you might as well use some very means!
Since we are pirates, we may not be good at everything and sit up straight! Sometimes you should do some cruel things, but you may not be able to do them! Fear is not a long-term solution!
So I think it is feasible to lead their ideas! The big head might as well give it a try!
In addition, there are some ideas about Danshui. So far, the chicken cage has not been there, but the situation on Nanri Island and Danshui Village has basically been seen.
I think that this kind of control method with the current big owner is not a good way!
There is still a council hall on Nanri Island where they can manage civil affairs, but on Tamsui's side, they need to command their brothers to take care of everything. In this way, Fang will indeed be very tired and difficult to make mistakes!
So I think that since the big leader wants to expand the area, it is better for a special person to take charge of civil affairs in the future, so that we can achieve long-term stability here!"
After listening to Lin Yiyang's words, Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "What you said is indeed reasonable, and you really need to use extraordinary means at a very moment! But in this way, I'm afraid that our relationship with Xinghua and Fuzhou will become tense!
As for what Mr. Lin just said about the affairs of special people in charge of civil affairs here, I think this is reasonable. After all, Fang An, you are from martial arts and are not good at being in charge of civil affairs, and the civil affairs itself is very cumbersome, and it is really necessary for someone to share this for you.
Unfortunately, to tell you the truth, we have a reputation as pirates. It is really difficult to attract scholars with this ability! A great talent like Mr. Lin is really rare! This manpower problem is not easy to deal with!"
As soon as Lin Yiyang heard this, he immediately got up and said, "The big boss doesn't have to be embarrassed about this. In fact, you don't have to act in the area of Fuzhou and Xinghua Prefecture to forcibly seize immigrants!
And there is another plan, which doesn't even need us to do it in person. We just need to take out some money to attract immigrants. Naturally, someone will be willing to help us do it!"
"Oh? Mr. Lin might as well talk about your method? Can we fake this kind of thing in the hands of others?" Yu Xiaotian, Fang An and others couldn't help but be curious.
"Of course! You should know that Lin is also from Fujian. He has long heard that some pirates specially kidnapped people from the coastal area, either being taken hostage or sold to his land as slaves. Previously, there were Japanese pirates running rampant along the coast. I don't know how many Ming people will be taken every year. Most of them eventually disappeared. Presumably they were also sold to other places by Japanese pirates. Go!
If we inform our peers that we need a large number of manpower, we can offer them a price. No matter what method they use, as long as we can send people here, we will pay according to the number of people. In this way, we can solve the problem of manpower in a short time.
As for the civil affairs on the freshwater side, Lin is not talented. If the big master can believe it, Lin is willing to leave a try! Moreover, Lin has made several friends on the land, and now they are not satisfactory. Lin is willing to write to them in person and invite them to come here. If they are willing, they can also stay for the big family to work! I don't know what the head of the family is doing?" At this time, Lin Yiyang can be said to have put his whole heart on the side of Danshui Village. He put his arms and sleeves to do a big job here, and actually proposed to help Yu Xiaotian recruit talents.
After listening to Lin Yiyang's words, Yu Xiaotian couldn't help patting his head. In fact, the method Lin Yiyang said was slave trade. In this era, whether it was pirates from Eastern or Western countries or even some countries, they arrested some black Africans as livestock. , and then trafficked to other places as slaves.
This kind of business not only exists in black Africans, including Southeast Asian countries and the coastal areas of China. Such a slave trade is also very large. Every year, many coastal people are taken captive by pirates, and some of them are trafficked to South Asia by pirates.
And every year, pirates will also take some women from South Asia and even Japan and * to sell them in Daming. This has long become an industry, but unfortunately, he did not think of this. Today, Lin Yiyang brought it up first, but their pirates did not think of this.
Yu Xiaotian also found the changes in Lin Yiyang today. After a little thought about it, he figured out why Lin Yiyang had such a change overnight.
He can be sure that after looking at the structure of Danshuizhai, Lin Yiyang's mind has changed a lot and began to become more proactive. Today, he even directly proposed that he is willing to stay here in Danshuizhai to help Fang An deal with civil affairs. Presumably, he must also quickly show his talent. Learn and let all the sea wolves see his ability.
