827 Isla Ny

In the middle of November of 1659, just before Nicole left Xiaowanshan Island and sailed to Zixia Island, she called Zixia Island on behalf of Xiaoshan: about 400 more women from the women's village boarded the Nicole - this is the third batch, and by now, more than 1,000 self-combing girls from the women's village will arrive on Zixia Island.

Immediately the Red Mansion also received this telegram, Xia Xiaoou specially called to suggest that these self-combing women are self-reliant and self-reliant, they don't seem to rely on men much, then we should give them full autonomy, Zixia Island should pay attention to ---- you can't force the self-combing women to integrate into the immigrant society, all policies and practices related to the lifestyle of the self-combing women must be based on the principle of self-combing women's voluntariness.

Then Xia Xiaoou suggested: It is best to draw a place for them, the ideal state is to have a relatively independent and closed environment, so that the self-combing women are not disturbed by the outside world, especially in the early days when the self-combing women immigrated to Zixia Island, the relatively closed and self-sufficient lifestyle of the women's village should be preserved as much as possible.

Xia Xiaoou also said in the telegram that the great cause of immigration in the Australian Federation involves our fundamental interests, and we must accept immigrants from all over the world with tolerance beyond this era, and make the Australian Federation a home for people with adventurous, fearless and free spirit all over the world and a "beacon in the hearts of all mankind who yearn for freedom" -- according to the historical records of later generations, this is the original source of Australia's title of "lighthouse country".

Li Junming of course agrees with this opinion, although it is certain to let the women support themselves, but since everyone is here, they are citizens of our Australian Federation, and the necessary help must still be given.

Li Junming soon called a "Governor's Mansion Administrative Council" at Xia Xiaoou's suggestion, and Yang Qiaoqiao was pleased to learn that the women of the Nuzhai would be given an independent island, rather than just owning a "Nuzhai" as they are now.

Li Junming told Chairman Yang that the aunts and sisters of the Nuzhai Village would become an important labor resource on Zixia Island, and he suggested that Yang Qiaoqiao lead the women of the Nuzhai Village to develop an island in the north of Xinqinzhou Port, which is not too small, and after preliminary measurements, it should be larger than Dawanshan Island, which is only separated from Xinqinzhou by a narrow strait, close to the north of Zixia Island.

Li Junming asked Yang Qiaoqiao to tell the self-combing girls that for that island, except for the self-combing women, the Governor's Mansion would not immigrate to the island again.

So two days later, Yang Qiaoqiao organized a team composed of experienced aunts in the women's village to land on the island to investigate, in addition to Yang Qiaoqiao's team, this team also had an infantry company led by Ren Ke himself---- a total of 200 soldiers composed of escort team.

The group of people rowed onto the island in a small wooden boat, and surveyed the contour topographic map in Ren Ke's hand in turn.

The island had a place name in the Old World — Douroa Island, and later the island was called Nüshima Island — which was given to Xia Xiaoou.

The island is seven kilometers long from east to west and more than two kilometers from north to south, with a total area of about 15 square kilometers.

In addition, there are large meadows in the transition zone from forest to beach.

Nüdao is only two kilometers away from Zixia Island in the strait, and there are a series of smaller islands attached to Nü Island, basically no more than a few hundred meters away, where the terrain is also very flat, the water source is abundant, although the forest is not lush, but there is a lot of grassland, so it is very suitable for grazing, and later these small islands were also incorporated into Nüjima.

As a result, all of these islands, large and small, became known as the Mudo Islands, first as pastoral areas, and later as high-end tourist areas famous for their yachts – but that's another story.

On the island, Ren Ke took his own lady and began to point out the country, suggesting that the land here can grow cocoa beans, and cocoa beans to make chocolate need dairy products, and the economic benefits are much stronger than food, and the grassland there can be planned as a planting area and grazing area, not only to raise cattle and sheep, but also to produce cow and sheep milk, so that the women's village can build a chocolate processing factory in the future.

Ren Ke's suggestion made Yang Qiaoqiao nod frequently, although the aunts of the female village were a little confused - because they had not eaten chocolate until now, only Yang Qiaoqiao and Ren Ke's concubines had eaten it, but even this did not prevent the aunts from nodding frequently with Boss Yang......

After a field trip on the female island, Boss Yang took the women of the female village to carry out specific construction, and as soon as Ren Ke returned to Zixia Town, he sent a telegram to the Red Mansion - asked Lao Zhu if he could provide some livestock, poultry and eggs or something for breeding, he said that the Duroa Island in the north of Zixia Island is a very suitable place for grazing, as for what crops or cash crops can be planted, it will be said that Lao Wang will come to see it, and said that this island is ready to be used to house more than 1,000 self-combing women.

According to the water and soil conditions of Nüdao, it is no problem to build it into a large-scale base for breeding and grazing - just like Saifu Island at home, of course, maybe some high value-added spices and other cash crops can also be planted, such as spices related to five-spice powder or something.

Obviously, Ren Ke is very concerned about the affairs of Nüdao.

After Lao Zhu got the news, he immediately called back Ren Ke and said, I have everything you said here, and I will carry it next time Nicole comes.

So Ren Ke summoned the soldiers of the garrison to enter the Nudao Island to cut wood and help the Zicomb women build houses, which was basically a copy of a women's village - the entire building layout was determined with the direct participation of Boss Yang and a group of leading aunts.

Now, the women's house is a water stilt wooden house, according to the living habits of sisters and aunts, two people in one room, four houses in the shape of a concave shape form a group, and according to the style of the women's village specially built breeding houses, large livestock houses, textile houses, etc., even wells, public kitchens, public baths, public laundry pools, public toilets and other facilities are all complete, basically restore the life scene in the women's village.

In addition, a two-meter-high wooden fence was built outside the complex, a wooden gate was opened in the north-south direction, and a large house on stilts was built in the center of the complex, which was the public activity place of the women's village, and it was also the office and discussion place of the aunts and sisters of the women's village.

In addition to the women's houses, a gravel dirt road will lead to the southern coast, and across the sea from the Xinqinzhou wharf, the soldiers in command of the garrison have built a wooden pier 25 meters deep into the water, so that sailboats of tonnage like the Pride class can dock directly to the pier.

From November to the end of December, the garrison took shifts to work on Nyoshima Island, and it took two months to complete the work.

As for the management of the women's village, in accordance with the "Australian Federal Home Rule Act" passed by the Bundesrat, local autonomy is implemented - the self-combing girls select their trusted aunts and sisters to be the leaders of the family through a one-person-one-vote election.

Of course, this is a fairly late matter.

Yang Qiaoqiao once commented with surprise that this kind of election system has many similarities with the traditional practices of self-combing women, Yang Qiaoqiao told Ren Ke, but this kind of "election" of self-combing women is sometimes irregular, and elections are often initiated because of special matters......

In the end, Yang Qiaoqiao was elected as the mayor of Nüdao District without any suspense - this is the first district government @ government in the Australian Federation, in short, it has set a record for the first in the history of the Australian Federation.
