Chapter Seventy-Eight: Naturalization Takes a Hundred Years

If this is only Tamsui's political reform, Zhao Youju also mentioned economic reform.

First of all, freshwater fields, mines, water sources, forests, fish and beasts, all of which were purchased by Yuzhang Villa from the hands of the natives with a certain amount of property, so everything is owned by Yuzhang Villa, and the freshwater immigrants are all Yuzhang Villa households, which everyone knows.

Next, Zhao and Ju reconfirmed the stone inscription that was originally erected in Tamsui Yixue (now Tamsui Elementary School), and those immigrants who had worked here for a year could be assigned their own land in two years. This gives hope to all the immigrants who come to Tamsui - they only need to work hard for three years, and when they reach the age of twenty, they will have fields. If there is hope, people will not resist, they will not go to extremes, and they can endure some temporary repression, which is extremely important to appease the new immigrants and unite people's hearts. After three years, they have become accustomed to the rules and constraints of the island, and they have fields, and they will not take risks easily.

Then Zhao Heju proposed in the letter that Tamsui should formulate a reward and punishment statute according to the specific situation, and those who work more will get more, those who are lazy will get less, those who make meritorious contributions will be rewarded, and those who violate the ban will be punished. If there is a great contribution in the year, it can even be awarded one year to half a year in advance.

"Da Lang is very thoughtful, I'm worried these days, these many people are coming, and there are many disputes, I don't know how to deal with it!"

Hearing that he has become the big housekeeper of the Tamsui Town Office, this is tantamount to reaffirming his power, and he is so happy that he can't keep his mouth shut.

"Da Lang said in the letter that the owner of the carpentry yard should be selected from among the immigrants of the Righteous Army, and the deputy of each field, except for the escort team, the manufacturing bureau, and the primary school, should also be selected from the immigrants to be loyal and sincere." Chen Zicheng continued.

"That's right." Fang Youcai nodded again and again, in fact, Zhao Heju had an explanation to him when he sent the righteous army last time, and he dared to use the people of the righteous army to make good use of the people of the righteous army, so as not to make him suspicious. Zhao and Ju are now saying that Sanshang should not be the deputy of the righteous army for the time being, and they are all key departments, in addition to education, the primary school is also equivalent to controlling the next generation of the righteous army in their hands, and when these children and teenagers grow up, they will not remember that they are from the Red Jacket Army at all, but will only remember that they are from the Yuzhang Mountain Villa Yixue Tamsui Primary School. Some of the advanced skills of the Manufacturing Bureau were handed over to the rebels, and they couldn't take care of them. As for the convoy, that is where Tamsui is forced, and those who control it must naturally be absolutely loyal.

When you get to the last two pages, you are dealing with the judicial system. When there are many people, then all kinds of problems will appear, gambling, fighting, and even rape and murder, these are all hidden dangers. In Zhao and Ju's letter, he clearly pointed out that such incidents were first examined by Li Yunrui, and then the elders from each of the nine units were jointly discussed for one year, and the collegial discussion only pleaded guilty and innocent, and if they were guilty, they were handed over to five housekeepers for punishment.

There are two types of penalties, one is physical punishment and the other is property punishment. Physical punishment includes four types of physical punishment: secret flogging, public flogging, expulsion from the island, and death, while property punishment is two categories: deduction of meritorious service and confiscation of property. This is similar to the main punishment and the supplementary punishment in the later generations, where physical punishment cannot be combined at the time of punishment, while property punishment can.

When Chen Zicheng read the word "execution", Fang Youcai's face turned pale: "Execution...... Execute? This is not good, this has to be dealt with by the government. ”

"Where did you come from, if you say that there is, our town office is it." Li Yunrui sneered.

Ou Laogen sat sullenly on the side, he had been listening to Zhao Youju's letters very carefully, and he could hang his head here and look at the soles of his shoes in a daze, Fang Youcai muttered for a long time, and he didn't know what he was talking about, Ou Laogen suddenly said: "Old Fang, this liuqiu was originally a place to turn into a foreign country, and it doesn't hurt that our Da Lang is called Wang Liguo here." ”

He had been silent, and he looked very wooden, but he said the words that were hidden in everyone's hearts. Fang Youcai shook at first, slowly raised his head, and then nodded vigorously: "Lao Gen is right, our eldest man, why can't he become a king here!" ”

Seeing that everyone had reached an agreement, Chen Zicheng smiled and closed the letter, and said to Ou Bama: "Bama, your freshwater manufacturing bureau doesn't even have a shell now, Da Lang should have other orders when he comes, right?" ”

"The villa is a little narrower, and I'm afraid that others will be suspicious, even the hanging island is not suitable, so Dalang sent me here." Ou Bama nodded: "I will go back again at the end of the year, and Mr. Xiao will come here again." ”

"Steward Fang, I will be led around everywhere, I have to choose a place to build a freshwater manufacturing bureau, a place to go downwind and into the water, far away from the residential area of everyone, separated from the surrounding places by a tree in the middle, Da Lang said, at least twenty zhang of trees must be planted." Obama turned to Fang Youcai again.

He has a straightforward temperament, not like his father, who is stuffy when he has to say, and if he doesn't say it when it is critical, Fang Youcai knows that he has Zhao and Ju to take a fancy to him, so how can he be lazy, so he will respond immediately.

In the planning map left by Zhao and Ju, Tamsui Town should cover an area of four square kilometers, and at this time, it should be sixteen square miles, and the circumference should also reach sixteen miles. Not even one-sixth of the houses that have been built today have been occupied, so there is no space for them to even encroach on paddy fields. Because the northeast and southwest monsoons blow from the northeast, the Tamsui Manufacturing Bureau was placed in the northwest corner of Tamsui Town after considering the wind direction and water source. It is close to brick kilns and cement kilns, and the iron yard is also located not far from here, which happens to form an industrial base with the upcoming freshwater manufacturing bureau.

After determining the site, Fang Youcai organized the construction of manpower, and since he learned that freshwater burns cement, Zhao Youju is more interested in the construction of freshwater, so these factories are also built according to the drawings he drawn. The two rows of large houses, both of which are nearly three feet high and have five rooms on each floor, although from the current point of view, most of these places will be vacant, but as the immigrants do not come in a steady stream, sooner or later a large number of craftsmen will be stationed.

While the infrastructure team was working hard to build the house, Ohama was not idle, he led a few geographers around looking for different stones, dirt, and sand, sorting them, and then bringing them back to the Tamsui Primary School. Using the various equipment brought from Yuzhang Villa, he analyzed the composition of these things as much as he could. With his current knowledge and conditions, he could only recognize one or two out of a hundred, but recognizing one or two already made him extremely happy. In addition, he also inspected the landforms and streams of freshwater, and thanks to his efforts, the first resource distribution map of freshwater was finally drawn up a month later.

At the same time, Ou Laogen was not idle, he was with the potters of the infrastructure team, and he was busy every day. The infrastructure team dug a kiln for them, and I don't know what to burn, and after a few days, he led the craftsmen of the iron yard to start casting a big guy, and Fang Youcai turned around a few times, but he didn't understand what he was going to cast. It looked like a large furnace, but it was different from the blacksmith's stove he had seen before.

Ou Laogen wanted to build a blast furnace (Note 1), a blast furnace with a graphite crucible that could raise the furnace temperature to an unprecedented level, which was of great significance for smelting steel and even glass for all travelers.

Fang Youcai was only curious about Ou Laogen and his son for two days, so he had to devote his main energy to the restructuring of Tamsui. Whether for them or for freshwater immigrants, this restructuring is a new thing, and as the restructuring progresses, some unexpected problems have gradually arisen. Although Zhao Youju has considered it comprehensively enough, accidents always happen, and these have to be rich to worry about.

Ah Mao sensitively noticed that there was something different about Tamsui these days, not only because there were many newcomers here, but also because people always asked repeatedly: "Which unit are you from?" ”

Some immigrant teenagers who knew him well also asked him, these teenagers were originally honest and cheerful, so few looked down on him, and every time he was asked, he was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

"Which unit do I belong to, everyone has a unit, Ao Sayang has entered the iron field, Chen Zicheng is in the primary school, which unit do I belong to?"

He is not the only one who has such thoughts, and almost all the natives who work with him on the side of the Song people are like this. Because he was closest to Fang Youcai, these natives came to him one after another and asked him to ask Fang Youcai where they belonged.

"Your unit?" Fang Youcai was stunned, he never thought that the natives would come to ask this question, in his consciousness, these natives naturally belonged to their tribe, and they came to Tamsui to be just mercenans.

"We want units too!" Ah Mao was a little puffy.

"Naturally, naturally, you will naturally have a unit ......" Fang Youcai was a little nerve-wracking, and the letter sent by Zhao and Ju did not say how these natives should be settled. It's no wonder that Zhao and Ju are not thoughtful enough, but because he hasn't come to Liuqiu for too long, and he doesn't know the relationship between the Turen and Tamsui today.

Although he was appointed by Zhao Heju as the chief steward of the Tamsui Town Office, Fang Youcai knew that he could not make a decision on this matter, so he immediately found Chen Ren, Li Ye and others to discuss.

"What's so difficult about this, set up a naturalization bureau under the town office, and all the natives who are willing to come to Tamsui will be placed in the bureau." After hearing Fang Youcai tell the story, Chen Ren was the first to react, he was one of the best in the first phase of Yixue, he has developed self-confidence in the past few years, and he never flinched and retreated when he was about to do something.

"Da Lang didn't say that he wanted to set up this naturalization bureau, let's call the shot......s" Fang Youcai was a little worried, he thought of Zhao Zi, who was assigned to Keelung by Zhao and Ju Fa, although all the food and clothing were transported from fresh water, but Fang Youcai always felt that for Zhao Ziyue, who once held the power of Hanging Island, sending him to Keelung was a disguised punishment.

"Da Lang often said to us, we should stick to our original will, and we should not go to the end of the day; When things are done expediently, we should not stick to the ancients. Chen Ren said proudly: "If the local people are not properly settled, there will be trouble, and even disputes will arise frequently, which is contrary to the original intention of Dalang." If it can be properly resettled, it will not only increase the freshwater population, but also facilitate our reclamation. ”

"Chen Ren's words are reasonable." Although Li Yunrui is the youngest among these people, he is very witty, and he can often be unique when thinking about things or not being thoughtful, he said with a smile: "Although the local people are a little stubborn, they are not as fierce as the Hu people, they are limited in number, but the territory is vast, our vision can not be limited to Tamsui." The ancients had a thousand gold and bones, so we should treat these people who are close to the left, let them admire them in their hearts, and take the initiative to vote. ”

"Make it believe with sincerity, love it with benevolence, admire it with courtesy, and make it with literature. Tempting it to benefit, suppressing it with authority, soothing it with benevolence, and turning it into a way. Li Ye interjected and said: "When Da Lang said how to treat the natives, he once said this, setting up a naturalization bureau, which is exactly what Da Lang wants. ”

The young men who saw righteousness all agreed with Chen Ren's policy, and Fang Youcai could only follow the crowd, but when it came to how to operate, the two sides had a dispute again.

"Since it is a thousand gold bones, there must be heavy rewards, and now the use on the island is all from the public, so we have to make a charter to come out, so as not to use it indiscriminately." This is Chen Zicheng's opinion.

Fang Youcai thinks that this opinion is actually aimed at him, he is now the housekeeper of the town office, so he can almost enjoy all the fresh water first, even if it is food, he really does not get tired of eating. Wen Yan sneered: "You guys said it lightly, this is a big town, if you have to take care of every stitch and thread, how can you get things done?" For example, if there is going to be a rainstorm, the drying field is anxious to find a wooden board to cover the rain, and it has to be done according to the regulations, and after the wooden board is taken out, the rain will stop. ”

"Regardless of the matter beforehand, investigate afterwards." Chen Ren knocked lightly on the table: "Do you still have to calculate that we go out to buy in Zhuangzi, make a budget before purchasing, the budget must be tight, go to the account room to receive the money, receive the money must be lenient, go out to shop, come back after the purchase and write off the account, and the account will be tight." Just follow this recipe and have a budget every quarter. ”

"Ah Ren is right, this account matter, can't be messed up, Da Lang is thousands of miles away, we are all deeply trusted, naturally we will not do anything, but we can't ensure that someone will be corrupt in the future, this account system must be set according to the rules of the family!" Li Yunrui saw that Fang Youcai's expression was obviously not good-looking, and said with a smile: "Da Lang said that if we follow his steps and run forward, we will naturally have food and drink after reaching the goal, and if someone falls halfway or takes a fork in the road, then there will only be hunger." ”

This thing was also seen and heard with his own eyes when he had wealth above the village, and he was terrified when he heard this, and then looked at these righteous young men, and found that they were all smiling and not smiling. He felt a pang in his heart, knowing that these people must have spoken in advance, and he was afraid that he was a little arrogant and unaccustomed to seeing that he had been in power recently, so he came to beat himself. He was originally a little clever, and after thinking about it, where did he dare to insist: "It's up to you to do this, I also felt that sometimes the accounts are extremely messy, although we are useless to ask for money here, it is difficult to ensure that we eat more and occupy more...... My boy doesn't know when he will be able to come to Tamsui, and his house is empty, so let's return it to the office. ”

Seeing that he was interested, the righteous young man was not very concerned about himself, Da Lang let Fang Youcai such a person in Tamsui, naturally he had his intentions, and he chased and beat him fiercely, but he mistook Da Lang's business. In this way, in a completely unrelated conversation, Tamsui established a budget and audit system, which was still full of loopholes at this time, but it was a big step forward for this era.
