After staying in Jeju for two days, on July 14, Wei Boqiu arrived in Dajing County by boat; On the 17th, they arrived in Jingyi County. After confirming the number of Koreans sold in these two places, he went to Busan on the 2oth, the focus of his trip.

Busan and Wonsan have not been used well as ports open to the east coast of North Korea. After arriving in the Far East, Wei Boqiu decided to harness the potential of Korea and make it an economic colony of the East Coasters. The two places are nominally treaty ports, but in reality they are quite different.

When the East Coast signed a treaty with North Korea, the North Koreans did not agree to cede the port of Busan, which had been occupied by the East Coast army, and only agreed to grant the East Coast expatriates "great autonomy" in Busan. But it didn't matter much, the people from the east coast have now moved here more than 2,000 Ming people, and some Korean soldiers have been selected from the advance team to serve as patrol officers, and they are in charge of the daily security work in Busan.

Kim Hong-beom, the county commander of the North Koreans stationed here, gave up after repeated protests to no avail, and simply pretended to be dead and tossed by the people on the east coast. At present, the status of Jeju Island has not yet been decided, and Wang Jing's repeated requests have been unreasonably rejected by the people on the east coast, and the relationship between the two sides has really deteriorated recently, so it is better not to interfere too much with the people of the east coast at this time, so as not to cause any more trouble.

The East Coast of Busan Port has also appointed a top administrative officer, the President of the East Coast Expatriate Reclamation Association. The structure of this reclamation society is very simple, with only two branches under its jurisdiction: the Civil Affairs Department and the Patrol Department. In addition, in order to ensure the colonial rule of the East Coast here, the Blackwater Pioneer Team also set up a 500-member Busan garrison here. The origin of the soldiers of the garrison is complicated. There were both prisoners of the green battalion of the Qing army and Japanese soldiers recruited. It is not necessary for them to have a strong fighting force, but only to be able to suppress the anti-East Coast movement that may exist among the local North Korean population on a daily basis.

After nearly a year of population statistics, there are still more than 18,600 Korean residents in Busan, which is well defined by the Kingdom of Korea (the area east of the Nakdong River and a straight line east of Geumjeongsan Mountain to the south of the coastline). Most of these people make a living from farming, and a few hunt, fish or boil salt.

After the establishment of the Dong'an People's Civil Affairs Office, a considerable number of Koreans who knew Chinese were recruited from the Standing Brigades and the Military Husbands' Corps to serve as civil affairs officials. It doesn't matter what the level of these people is, in short, let's put up the shelves first. The main task of the Civil Affairs Office was to organize the local Korean and later Ming immigrants to work hard to produce and provide sufficient food for the Heishui area. Meanwhile. Some of the Ming craftsmen will also be relocated here to set up a more rudimentary handicraft industry here, so as to gradually spread Busan's influence to the surrounding area.

The Patrol Officer, which is not the District Office, is more crucial. As we all know, the East Coast people are only outsiders and colonizers, so they can only dominate the local Koreans through guò police rule. The first step in Wei Boqiu's plan to manage Korea was to set up a system in Busan.

The so-called armor protection system actually refers to some effective systems in later Chinese history. For example, the core content of the armor protection system implemented in Busan is: ten households are A, and there is one person in the first place; The top ten are one guarantee, and one person is set up. A chief and Baozheng do not receive wages. But they all have certain privileges, such as tax packages, monopoly on East Coast goods, etc. as a reward for their service to the people of the East Coast. If this policy is implemented well, it will be extremely beneficial to Wei Boqiu's plan to use the dynasty to control the dynasty.

According to the current population of more than 20,000 people in Busan (including more than 2,000 Ming immigrants), there are a total of 427 Bao, 3995 Jia, and 1o246 Zhuang Ding (the specific number of Baojia households is divided according to the natural villages). The main duties of Baozheng and Commander A were to convey the orders of the people on the east coast, to ban the random movement of Koreans, to guard against wind, water, and fires, to search for bandits, to maintain local law and order, to maintain roads, bridges, and warehouses, to collect taxes and levies, to assist the patrol police on the east coast in handling cases, to organize anti-east coast movements, and to undertake more chores during wartime.

At present, these people are mainly filled by Korean soldiers, a team of military men who are more trusted by the people on the east coast, and the children of exiled Korean prisoners on Jeju Island. They don't have much affection for the North Korean regime and are even full of hatred, and they are perfect to be the minions of the East Coast. They will act as the tentacles and eyes of the people on the east coast, so that the North Korean county that has been making small moves with the people on the east coast will have nothing to do.

For example, when they encounter a living person staying overnight, their family members going out or returning home from a long trip, they must report to the chief A, and the chief A will report to the local patrol police station after learning about it. If there is any delay in reporting or concealment, they will be punished immediately, and the surrounding neighbors will also be held responsible.

According to Wei Boqiu's plan, a few years after the implementation of the armor protection system in Busan and Wonsan, the North Korean Zhuangding will also be organized to set up a security group. The number of members of the Security Corps was initially set at 500, and the members of the regiment were all in good health and good character from 16 years old and under 4o years old. Officers at all levels of the security regiment are selected and assigned by the east coast, trained during agricultural slack hours, and disbanded during agricultural work, and are armed with standard sticks. If the situation is unstable, the officers will immediately concentrate on the guard, of course, if the members of the regiment are unstable or disobedient, the officers will immediately dismiss them and punish them severely.

After the establishment of these systems, it is believed that the Koreans in the Busan area will no longer be able to make any big waves, and in time, the colonial rule of the Koreans on the east coast will gradually be stabilized in this era when the national ideology has not yet sprouted. After all, Wei Boqiuhua made great efforts to establish a colonial order in Pusan and other places, not for fun, but to more efficiently squeeze and exploit the local Koreans, making them a blood vessel for the East Coast in the Far East.

However, it is not easy for the Busan area to develop its economy. In the Joseon Dynasty, this place was a remote and desolate fishing port, and even though some of the land on the banks of the fertile Nakdong River was given to the people of Dong'an at the time of demarcation, it was still extremely poor on the whole. In order to open this area, it is necessary to renovate some of the water conservancy facilities built by the Joseon Kingdom on the banks of the Nakdong River, and then vigorously cultivate the fields and grow various crops in the area.

However, people on the east coast have always been very good at building them. After arriving at the port of Busan by boat on the 2oth, he immediately ordered Kim U-gyu, president of the Guò East Bank Overseas Chinese Reclamation Association (Na Tiansheng had been transferred to Wonsan), that all the newly arrived more than 2,000 Ming people should move to the banks of the Nakdong River and mingle with some local Koreans, and re-divide the local Baojia relations and land property rights to ensure that everyone could get a share of agricultural land with an area of no less than five acres. Of course, some Koreans whose vested interests were violated in the process rose up to resist, but they were quickly suppressed by the soldiers of the garrison who rushed to hear the news, and these rebels and their families were all locked up and sold to the Dutch.

About 1,000 cattle, 3,000 sheep, 400 horses, and 300 pigs were transferred from pastures on Jeju Island and distributed them to farmers in the farming areas along the Nakdong River. The principle of decentralization is basically set as the priority of the Ming people's farmers, the priority of the Baozheng Jiachang family, the priority of the Baozheng Jiachang family, and the priority of the Baozheng Jiachang, and so on, until the turn of the ordinary Korean peasant households.

The reclamation of agricultural areas along the Nakdong River is an important part of Wei Boqiu's development of the Far East's economy, where the climate is suitable, water is abundant, and the land is fertile. If the conditions are right, if the three-crop rotation system is implemented in this area, which has proven to be more efficient on the east coast, it is believed that a bumper grain harvest will be obtained. Then the harvested grain can support the large-scale military operations of the people on the east bank in the Heilongjiang River Valley, and the effect is undoubtedly huge.

In addition to agricultural cultivation, the Port of Busan is also a port with excellent conditions. The ambitious Wei Boqiu planned to spend three to five years building a shipyard, a permanent wharf, a lighthouse, a coastal defense battery, a medium-sized fortress, and a large number of material warehouses at the port of Busan. Then, relying on this port, it radiates to the interior of North Korea and carries out commercial trade. What is worrying now is that although the DPRK has a population of more than 6 million, it is not rich in the country, which can be seen from the fact that they have dragged their feet in paying the final payment of 50,000 taels of silver for the ransom fee. How difficult it is to penetrate North Korea economically!

However, no matter how poor North Koreans are, they always have a demand for various necessities such as daily necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation. So how to penetrate through the cracks in the door of the North Korea, which has been pried open by the East Coasters, and finally sell the goods of the East Coast people to all corners of North Korea, this is what Wei Boqiu needs to consider and plan closely.

Wei Boqiu believes that in order to achieve this goal, it is first necessary to let the Korean kingdom consciously or unconsciously integrate into the Far Eastern economic circle built by the people on the east coast. For example, the strong men in the interior of Korea were organized to work in the Dutch colony, and then the money earned was remitted back to North Korea in the form of guò remittances, so that the North Koreans had the money to consume various goods of the people on the east coast. Of course, in addition to this method, there is also a way to encourage the North Koreans to eat a variety of food or medicinal herbs, because these are the commodities that the people of the East Coast need.

All in all, the DPRK should start together from both the economic and political aspects, and in particular, it should not be in a hurry, slowly and little by little, infiltrate the DPRK, and gradually integrate the DPRK into the Great Far Eastern Economic Circle envisioned by Wei Boqiu in the form of boiling frogs in warm water. This economic circle includes Sakhalin Island and its surrounding islands, the Matsumae Domain of Japan, the Shandan region, the Dutch (or Zhengjia) Taiwan, and some of the Great 6 regions.

On July 27, Wei Boqiu arrived by boat at Wonsanjin, another port in North Korea, and began to guide the planning there. After a busy day and return to Dabo Port, the time has reached the beginning of August, and the annual salmon fishing season has gradually begun to enter the first stage. (To be continued......)
