Chapter 247: Changes in Africa
Zhu Yousong slaughtered all over the Fucheng area, and also moved over hundreds of thousands of Ming people in his father's territory, so that on the ground here, the residents of the Ming Dynasty began to occupy half of the population. In addition to monopolizing the export of frankincense and myrrh here, Zhu Yousong also let the camel hair and wool products here be deeply processed by the craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty, and these craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty made these camel hair and wool into clothes and carpets and other clothing by transforming the original textile machine and combining the processing methods of the local people here, and then sold them, which is much more profitable than the direct sale of raw materials, and later became the pillar industry here.
The most important thing is the chain-rail farming tools after Bo Jue's transformation, such as simple chain-rail hand-held ploughing pots, camel machines, harvesters, etc., which greatly improve labor efficiency. Fuwang is the biggest beneficiary of the pot camel machine, the first people to use these tools, so these immigrants will naturally only use these things, through the use of these agricultural machinery, greatly saving labor intensity, reducing the use of labor, every family can cultivate much more land than the locals, and Zhu Yousong's tax is very low, so every family is relatively wealthy. It is impossible to manufacture these agricultural machinery, this technology is still in a state of protection, and Zhu Yousong bought a large number of these things from the Ming Dynasty.
The abundant labor force population made Zhu Yousong have the ambition to continue to expand the territory, and the rich living conditions allowed the population on the Fuwang territory to continue to migrate here, regardless of whether the Fuwang himself was willing or not, Zhu Youxiao was strongly supported, and finally at the end of the year, the population here reached nearly 200,000, and Zhu Yousong expanded the team to more than 30,000 people.
In the process of expanding southward, Zhu Youxiao met a tribe that was more interested, this tribe lived on a large island, which was not very suitable for agriculture, and the inhabitants mainly lived by fishing, with more than 1,000 residents, and their appearance was quite different from the local aborigines, but they were definitely not Arabs or Persians. When Zhu Yousong contacted them, he found that these people were able to speak relatively proficient Da Ming dialect. According to their own accounts, there was a sea ship stranded here, and their ancestors had more than 20 people, who escaped from the sea and climbed onto this small island, and then settled here for nearly 200 years.
Seeing the descendants of the Ming Dynasty whose bloodline and skin color have changed greatly, Zhu Yousong regarded them as his own. The inhabitants here are mainly surnamed Wan and Xie, and their ancestors are probably the leaders of these sailors, who still rule the tribe here. Zhu Yousong helped them to a certain extent, and directly gave them some more advanced weapons and farm tools, so that they had a piece of land on the mainland, which was between the Fucheng Kingdom and the Portuguese colony, which was a buffer, but Zhu Yousong still suggested that they expand westward and establish a small country, which was convenient for future contact with the Ming Dynasty, which was considered a close relative country of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, Zhu Yousong was not good at positioning his country.
Zhu Changhao and Zhu Changrun of Xinyingtian have lived a very moist life, in addition to selling the spices there to all over the world, the two of them also continue to ask Zhu Youxiao to emigrate, they themselves do not have a fief in the Ming Dynasty, and they can't immigrate from King Fu's territory like Zhu Yousong, but Zhu Youxiao is their biggest backer. Therefore, the increase in immigration here is also very fast, to the end of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, with the merchant ships to come over the immigrants also reached nearly 100,000, and many are the whole family relocated over, Zhu Youxiao has made a lot of funding for them, the family of ten distributed a chain rail pot camel machine for cultivated land, harvester, so that they can quickly settle down here, the rich land, so that they are very satisfied.
Zhu Changhao had a very good relationship with Chen Qingyun of the Daimyo Kingdom, Zhu Changhao could obtain various advanced weapons and farm tools of the Ming Dynasty, while Chen Qingyun occupied the advantages of the landlord and was very familiar with the local customs, and the two began to expand in this area together. The combination of the two made the local indigenous tribes intolerable, but whether it was the gap in weapons or the gap in the quality of soldiers, they were helpless. After several large-scale conflicts, some chose to join their sphere of influence and become their dependents, while others chose to migrate to the west of the Great Rift Valley. Zhu Changhao and Chen Qingyun took the river on the north side as the boundary, demarcated their respective spheres of influence, and controlled the Tanzanian region in later generations.
Since the skin color of the Chen Qingyun tribe was not much different from that of the local indigenous tribes, most of the tribes who joined them chose the Daimyo Kingdom, which became one of the most powerful countries in eastern Africa. Zhu Changhao didn't need too many indigenous tribes to join, nearly 100,000 immigrants could already ensure that his sphere of influence would not be threatened, and in the process of pioneering, he did not directly send soldiers, but assisted Chen Qingyun's Daimyo Kingdom to do a good job of logistics and material supply.
Most of the natives of Chen Qingyun's kingdom were lazy, they were used to lazy habits, and they were not used to such things as farming farmland, and as for the black slaves who were trafficked to the Americas, they were forced to work under the whip. Chen Qingyun was reluctant to use force to force them to work, and the local Ming farmers who migrated from the Ming Dynasty took the place of these jobs. Of course, these migrated farmers all have a large number of advanced agricultural machinery, the farming efficiency of the agricultural machinery powered by various pot camel machines made in the Ming Dynasty is still good, and the efficiency of using these agricultural machinery is dozens of times higher than the labor efficiency of the local blacks, which completely guarantees the food supply in this place.
Solving the problem of food necessary for survival, Chen Qingyun had a large number of young and middle-aged people to form an army, coupled with a large number of advanced weapons transported from the Ming Dynasty, the army of the Daimyo Kingdom had almost no opponents to resist here, and in the process of expansion everywhere, it did not encounter much resistance, so as to gain control of the entire Tanzania.
After taking control of this place, Chen Qingyun realized that it would definitely not work if he only relied on Zhu Changhao's food supply, not to mention that he could not continue to expand indefinitely, so he asked Zhu Changhao and Zhu Changrun for advice on how to carry out the next development issues. The two brothers also knew in their hearts that it was impossible to supply the food needs of the Daimyo Kingdom all the time, and they had to let them have the independent ability to feed themselves, so the three of them discussed a plan to govern the Daimyo Kingdom.
Adult indigenous blacks are certainly not able to be transformed, they have developed the habit of laziness, and only by starting with the next generation of children can they change their habits. According to the results of the discussion of the three of them, a large number of fixed villages were established within the boundaries of the Daimyo Kingdom, just like the villages in the Ming Dynasty, and then a large number of schools were established, teaching them simple writing and calculation, and instilling the culture of the Ming Dynasty into the minds of these good children, in order to avoid these children from being subjected to the bad habits of the adults in the family, these schools adopted a closed management mode. Food and shelter are free in school, and only every half month can these children go home and be with their parents for one day.
In these schools, the model of military management is adopted, and strict discipline can make these children develop good habits, whether it is personal hygiene, farm labor, Ming food habits, etc., these have certain requirements, all children must find the prescribed way to do it, and when they return home, they must also maintain this habit.
I have to say that this is a very good way to renovate, children's good living habits, so that the adults in the family begin to adapt to them, after all, all parents are the most distressed their children. Good hygiene habits have kept children away from parasites, and various infectious diseases are no longer the killers of children, and the mortality rate of children has been reduced to a minimum. Delicious meals, good eating habits, and hearty nutrition make children live healthier and stronger lives. Just two simple points made the indigenous black adults accept Chen Qingyun's transformation work, laying a good foundation for this place to become the most economically developed place in Africa in the future, and becoming a miracle in the black world.
