In the first few years of their reign, the Dutch were able to harvest more than 100,000 deerskins each year by extremely oppressing the natives, all of which were eventually sold to Japan.

However the good times did not last long, and bison, Canadian salmon..... In countless cases, the natives were forced to hunt wildly, and within a few years, the deerskin trade was over – the ecology was completely destroyed, and it never recovered. After that, the Dutch began to recruit immigrants and develop sugarcane cultivation in Tainan to replace the deerskin trade.

In their plan, all the aborigines of the island will be removed in the future - large areas of plantations and pastures in the South Seas and North America will be placed there, and everyone can become the owner of the manor with the Ming people.

It is a basic rule that all the natives under the rule must be dispersed and post-colonized, and the stupid thing of the 100-10 people suddenly remembering that they are a people and marching the streets every day to ask for subsidies from the government will not be allowed to happen again.

The deer herd on the island will also be preserved, at least in the traversal plane, and the large herd of deer in Taiwan's central mountains and coastal wetlands will happily survive.

Therefore, for the amount of war compensation for the two societies, Professor Luo also gave the specific figure after inspecting the material reserves of the indigenous people on the spot. And he also generously said: in order to protect the ecology, the compensation can be repaid smoothly and an extension is allowed...... Just add a little interest.

Well, as a price for preserving their homeland and their children, the people of the two societies were not only defeated in the war, but also suffered from HSBC-style economic aggression and faced heavy labor in the future.

The next tasks of the working group are still very busy: to mobilize the indigenous people to burn the wasteland and open the way, to coordinate the indigenous people to carry out daily trade, and to sit in Madou and send people to test the neighbors in the northern Chiayi region, and the Anya people.

Taiwan's topography is well planned: a belt of plains surrounds the central mountain range, like a skirt around the mountains. These skirts are naturally divided into blocks by the stream. Crossing the sphere of influence of the public, it has now spanned the area between Xingang Creek and Zeng Wenxi, and the next strategic scope is naturally the Chiayi area north of Zeng Wenxi.

One of the tasks of Professor Luo's visit here is to investigate the soft and hard of the Chiayi region and the subordinate societies of the Anya tribe, and assess the strength of the other party, so as to prepare for the next new map.

For a militia unit like the 1st Battalion, there will definitely be a period of recuperation after this war, and the soldiers will be considered a fat worker this time, and they will go home happily with the work points exchanged on the spot, and then wait for the next call-up.

......

The submission of the natives of the Maxiao Second Society cleared the way for the three upcoming projects of salt production, shipbuilding, and agriculture to be carried out by the Crossing Order.

The first to act was the salt pans.

A few days after the surrender of Madoushe, a 300-member labor force began to enter a coastal barren beach north of Xingang Creek and began to work hard - to transform the salt pans.

Leading the team is the Traveler Lu Hai. This gentleman's hometown is in Bohai Bay, and next door is the Yangkou Salt Farm, which is the only person who knows about the salt farm.

In terms of technical content, the development of salt pans is actually not difficult for the traversal who have mastered various measurement tools and meteorological observation methods. The difficulty of salt production lies mainly in the labor force: even in later generations, with the assistance of various machinery, salt production is still one of the most difficult working conditions.

The saltworks team that crossed the crowd was naturally more difficult, and it was completely self-made. The 300 people led by Lu Haiyang had to build wharves, clear vegetation, fill wetlands, and build houses while developing salt pans on this tidal flat, which was a huge amount of work.

The legendary barrel of diesel is far away, and it is impossible for the kiln area to pull the cable, so all the above projects need to be completed by manpower......

At present, the salt works are still only transported by sea, which is much more reliable than building a road between the wetland lagoons. In addition to some tools and food, the ship also carried a few color steel plates, and you can build a container hut when you turn around...... This is probably the only spiritual encouragement Lu Haiyang has received from the big office.

The Yuandou docked at the predetermined tidal flats. The first batch of 100 skilled laborers, specially selected, divided into 10 standard groups according to their dormitories, began to disembark in an orderly manner. Some unloaded on the beach, others carried torches and began to burn the weed: it was a matter of life and death, and the laborers were now well aware of the temper of the traversers, and clearing vegetation and filling in stagnant water was the highest priority.

It's the end of January in the Gregorian calendar, the coolest winter in Taiwan, and the Spaniards are watching the rain in Taipei every day, while the Tainan Plain is still sunny – at least six months before the rainy season arrives in July and August.

This is the biggest advantage of why Tainan is suitable for drying salt: climate. The salt farm team led by Lu Haiyang will dry the salt as soon as possible in the next time, and once there is a continuous supply of salt, the kiln area will prepare electrolysis equipment to prepare some chemicals that are urgently needed at present.

......

Lu Haiyang and his 300 warriors want to build the earth between the blue sky and wetlands, which is very lonely; In contrast, another construction site in the crowd is much more lively, with a lot of people and big men gathering - the shipyard.

Taijiang Shipyard is a long-planned project, but the project book has remained on paper and has never been put into practice, for the simple reason that there is a lack of shipbuilding materials.

Shipbuilding requires large quantities of wood and iron. After crossing the crowd, the most priority for the transport fleet is always population and food, and it is certainly not the turn of wood and iron.

The kiln base was opened, and timber became an abundant product, but the priority of iron transportation was still not high, and the imperial court forbade a large number of iron materials to go to sea, so the big people have always relied on the transport fleet to transport some handmade iron products and a small amount of iron to make a living.

As a certain force gained a firm foothold in Dayuan, the stall became bigger and bigger, and steel, to be precise, used to refine modern steel with crude iron in the Ming Dynasty, became the key link in the next step of industrial development. Therefore, after the New Year's meeting, the instructions issued by the big office to Hangzhou Station have clearly instructed Hangzhou Station to find ways to increase the purchase of iron materials and adjust the future cargo ratio of the fleet.

After receiving a positive reply from Hangzhou Station, the equipment and personnel of the shipyard began to be mobilized; The latest batch of transport fleets loaded with 15 tons of pig iron, and after seeing the telegram, the Taijiang Shipyard officially began to break ground.
