Set up the commercial department to manage and guide the business development.

Zhang Yu is most worried about the official interference in the development of business, this business has just started, if too much interference, many people will have too many concerns.

This will inhibit commercial development in the early stage, which is not what Zhang Yu wants to see.

But if you don't care at all, it doesn't seem to work, disorderly competition and insufficient risk assessment, which will lead to incidents like Qiao Xuan.

This Ministry of Commerce has a great stake, Zhang Yu must be in charge personally, and he can't let the people below distort his policies and thus inhibit commerce.

Zhang Yu found a few assistants, and the Ministry of Commerce is currently presiding over it itself, and he will be asked to preside over it when there is a suitable candidate in the future.

Zhang Yu began to study some of the details of the Ministry of Commerce, and spent two days in the room to study them.

In the past two days, Qiao Xuan has repaid all the borrowed money, and the matter has subsided.

Those who invest in the shares can only be unlucky themselves, and they should bear the corresponding risks when doing business.

Zhang Yu also left a little money for Qiao Xuan, hundreds of thousands, although it is not much, whether this Qiao Xuan wants to continue to do business, or just live like this.

Zhang Yu will help Qiao Xuan, in addition to for the sake of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, there is also Qiao Xuan's ability to compensate those who died first in his own difficult situation.

In this era, there is no respect for life, and life is not as good as a dog.

It is already very good that Qiao Xuan can do this, and it is worth Zhang Yu's help.

The detailed rules of the Ministry of Commerce were not studied so quickly, Zhang Yu set up the team first, he mobilized more than a dozen people to come over, and found a special courtyard around the county guard mansion to work.

In addition, Zhang Yu also mobilized more than 20 backbones from the intelligence department and asked them to set up an investigation team to investigate various business information.

However, they only have the right to act before the investigation.

Zhang Yu is back, but he immediately enters a busy state.

Zhang Yu listened more to the report, because he didn't know much about his own territory now, so he had to understand it first.

It took more than ten days for Zhang Yu to understand the affairs of Jiangdong and Youzhou.

On this day, Zhang Yu was still checking various materials on the desk, and the sound of heavy footsteps outside the study made Zhang Yu put down the paper in his hand.

As soon as he put down the information, Zhang Zhao pushed the door in.

There are only a few people who can come to the study directly to find Zhang Yu without being reported, and Zhang Yu knows that it is a big deal.

Zhang Zhao's face was relatively heavy, and after coming in, he didn't wait for Zhang Yu to ask him and said, "Lord, the fleet that was sent out by you to explore before has returned, except for the super big ship that has returned, the rest of the ships have either sunk or stayed, and they can't come back." ”

In the Age of Discovery, I don't know how many people will be buried on the sea, but even the biggest sacrifice can't be helped.

"Well, settle them well, and then I will summon them and reward them again." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Zhao nodded and said, "Although they suffered heavy losses this time, they brought back important news, they discovered a huge continent, and also drew a sea chart. ”

Zhang Zhao presented the chart to Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu picked up the chart, got up and walked quickly to an empty table next to him, and then spread it out.

"Australia~"

Spreading out the chart, Zhang Yu recognized Australia at a glance after seeing the map, Zhang Yu didn't expect them to reach Australia.

At this time, there should be no human beings in Australia.

"Great, great, great work, great work."

Zhang Yu was very excited.

It turned out that Australia would be found.

This Australia is very far away, Zhang Yu didn't expect them to be able to arrive, although Zhang Yu told them the approximate location of Australia before leaving, but Zhang Yu said very vaguely.

"Lord, is this Australia really so big?"

"Well, that's right, today's Australia is larger than the area developed by our Huaxia, but it is all wasteland and a large desert, and someone must develop it."

Although Australia is rich in resources, Zhang Yu doesn't think it will have much effect on him.

It's not the age of steam, this wooden ship is a wooden ship, and it can't transport a large amount of ore back in large quantities and safely.

But it's okay to bring some gold and silver back.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yu wants to turn this Australia into the scope of Chinese civilization.

The above are all Han people, who learn Chinese and Chinese civilization.

The southeast region has been occupied on a large scale by itself, and there are millions of Han people on it, and after several generations of development, it can only be the Chinese civilization circle in the future.

Regardless of the evolution of later dynasties, they were all part of the Chinese civilization.

That's what Australia means too.

However, after all, Australia is rich in resources, and although the investment is large, it will not be lost, as long as a large amount of gold and silver is shipped back, it can also make up for the loss.

It's just that what makes Zhang Yudan hurt is that how to immigrate over is a lot of work.

It's too far away, go to the southeast and come back, go to Australia, most people don't want to come back for the rest of their lives.

"There is time, a fleet is sent over every year, and gradually there are more people."

Immigration is a must, and in order to completely occupy Australia and turn it into a circle of Chinese civilization, there must be a corresponding population.

However, this will have to be built in large quantities, and it will be a super-large sea ship.

Now Zhang Yu and the others have built seven or eight ships, and there are five treasure ships under construction at the same time.

This Zheng He treasure ship costs millions of dollars, even if Zhang Yu is rich, he can't afford to play it, and he gritted his teeth to build a batch at the beginning.

After all, Zhang Yu and they need various types of ships, and other ships also need to be invested, and they can't just build treasure ships.

The treasure ship was too expensive, and it took eight months to build.

"When the funds are abundant, we will build another batch, and this time mobilize five treasure ships for them and let them go to Australia." Zhang Yu decided to say.

In order to use the system to increase the population, we must first establish many counties in Australia, and a county needs at least 1,000 people, and there are not even 1,000 people in Australia at present.

And Zheng Hebao's ship has a large volume, but because it is too far away, it also has to transport a lot of fresh water and grain, so one ship will bring about 1,000 people, plus some auxiliary ships, and it is also the limit for a ship to carry 1,500 people.

No matter how difficult it is, such a continent, Zhang Yu can't give up, he must occupy it.

This may require hundreds of millions of funds, and it will take several years, and Zhang Yu would rather slow down the development than do it.

There is an advantage to doing it early, because you can use the system to increase a large number of people every month, and doing it early can be developed earlier, and time is the population.

Zhang Zhao didn't understand why Zhang Yu was so obsessed with overseas territories, and it was so far away.

If it is a close place, such as the southeast region can provide a lot of wealth every year, but Australia obviously can't.

"There will be America, and there will be other places."

In fact, it was not Zhang Yu's plan to find out Australia, the fleet he sent was going to the Americas, but they encountered a storm at sea, and the ship went astray, and ended up in Australia.
