Chapter 835: Changes in Kyushu Island
In Youzhou, Liu Yu has a high prestige, and Zhang Yu has not helped Liu Yu at the beginning, but has squeezed benefits from him.
This made the people of Youzhou not have such a good impression of Zhang Yu.
However, Zhang Yu has been doing very well in Youzhou, and now the people of Youzhou can live a peaceful and prosperous life because of Zhang Yu.
Tian Yu and Tian Chou are not pedantic people, so they naturally understand this, this time Zhang Yu opened a branch to take a scholar, and they came.
"Okay, both of them are virtuous and willing to do things for the people, of course I am happy to do things for the people, but I recommend that you stay in Jiangdong for a year, and you can learn more things in Jiangdong that you can't know anywhere else." Zhang Yu said.
There are many things that cannot be understood, such as overseas situations, some knowledge that has not been disclosed to the public, and the humanistic atmosphere of Koto.
Both agreed to stay in Jiangdong for a year, and they also knew a little about Jiangdong for more than a month, but they couldn't get in touch with the core figures.
After the list was released, many people left one after another, and in two or three days, many people who were not on the list left one after another.
Zhang Yu's acceptance of Tian Yu and Tian Chou is already a big gain.
The next day, Zhang Yu also met several top candidates, and some of them chose to stay.
Zhang Yu asked these students to gather at Jiangdong College and be taught by the three elders, and the effect was still good.
Zhang Yu met Fa Zheng at Jiangdong Academy.
For Fa Zheng, Zhang Yu really wanted to keep him, but he wouldn't force anyone.
Chen Deng did not come, and Chen Deng had already left Jiangdong.
In addition, Ma Yunlu also came, this time as a daughter, which was surprising.
Zhang Yu also deliberately spread the news to let people know that there was a girl in this exam.
The popularity of the imperial examination is waning, but the impact is persistent.
In the end, more than one-third of the candidates in other places chose to stay, which made Zhang Yu very satisfied.
However, not only that, many candidates who did not take the exam actually stayed in Jiangdong and planned to continue the exam next year.
In Jiangdong, as long as you are willing to work, you will never starve to death, and you can live better than in other places.
Most of the aftermath work was handed over to Zhang Zhao to deal with, and Zhang Yu went to Chen Gong specifically.
"Gongtai, this imperial examination has exposed many problems, and I would like to ask you to open a topic, specialize in research, and improve it as soon as possible." Zhang Yu said.
Chen Gong said: "Master Zhang has any specific requirements. ”
Zhang Yu said: "The exam must be streamlined, come up with a plan for the initial exam within a month, come up with a new exam plan after two months, and solve the exam within two days, so that the speed can be much faster." ”
Jiangdong is formulating a new examination plan to improve the imperial examination.
More than 100,000 people gathered together for the exam, and the pressure was too great.
Zhang Yu plans to put the first exam in each county, and Youzhou can also conduct the first exam.
After coming to Jiangdong to participate in the imperial examination, at least some people can be brushed off.
And it is also convenient to count the number of people.
After dealing with these things, Zhang Yu set his sights in other directions.
On the Youzhou side, Yu Fuluo sent 500,000 troops to live in the grasslands north of Youzhou, and the two sides are quite friendly at present, no conflict has broken out, and trade is going smoothly.
Then came the rise of Xianbei, Xianbei and the Xiongnu broke out several small wars, but the Xiongnu were too strong, Xianbei was still suppressed.
And Zhang Yu wants to pay attention to Kyushu in Fusang.
It is said that Guo Jia has been working hard there for almost a year, and during the war against Yuan Shu, Zhang Yu spent a lot of money to get a lot of homeless people, and at this time, the proportion of the population in Kyushu was already dominated by the Han people.
Millions of people moved over, and Zhang Yu spent a lot of money, but in the end, it was not in vain, and the Han people began to occupy the majority.
Kyushu has been able to control it very well, and the Fuso people have become a minority.
At this time, Kyushu no longer needed Zhang Yu's support at all, and the wealth generated now was enough to spend.
The main thing in Kyushu now is that there are not enough ships and not enough food, so it needs to be transported from Youzhou, but a few mines have been opened in Kyushu, and the wealth generated can make up for this.
Guo Jia bought grain at a high price in Kyushu, so there were businessmen who were willing to take this line, and it would take a few days to arrive from Youzhou, and the profits could be expected.
When Zhang Yu was unable to mobilize too many ships for Guo Jia, Guo Jia used the merchants' ships to transport supplies.
In less than a year, Guo Jia established a relatively complete system on the island, and at the same time began to recruit troops.
The army left behind by Zhang Yu always had to be brought back, and Kyushu needed to have its own army and use locals, that is, people who needed to live on the island permanently, to serve as soldiers.
In the future, we will cross the strait and occupy all the other lands of Fuso.
For a year, Guo Jia and his army have been harassing, and Guo Jia has the navy patrol along the coastline to prevent a single plank from Fuso from going into the sea.
At the same time, people were sent to the island from time to time to harass.
This has two more obvious consequences.
First, the powerful people on the whole island had a sense of distress and began to learn Chinese culture, and then led many people to take the initiative to learn Chinese.
Second, in the entire Fusang region, the number of troops has skyrocketed several times, and they are afraid that Zhang Yu will fight them, so they have been increasing their troops.
This led to an imbalance in their structure, the army skyrocketed, and Queen Fuso could only continue to exploit the common people, causing the people there to suffer unspeakably.
When they increased their troops, they had to have weapons and equipment, but they couldn't produce them themselves, so they bought them from Guo Jia.
Guo Jia sold them weapons and food at a high price, and they had to buy them.
In this way, the whole Fusang became a part-time job for Zhang Yu, they kept looking for new mines, and then forced the people to dig them, and after digging them out, they were also sent to Guo Jiana for Guo Jia to develop.
Interesting reincarnation, Zhang Yu and their strategy had been successful at the beginning, and then they waited for the opportunity to destroy Fusang in one fell swoop, so that Fusang would completely become their own territory.
Zhang Yu is very persistent in Fusang, and once the time is ripe, he will definitely transform the entire Fusang.
In addition, Zhang Yu should pay attention to the trade with Tianzhu Kingdom.
Although this country has a large population, the ordinary people are too poor, and although Zhang Yu and their route are very profitable, they have not achieved their goals.
In the Tianzhu Kingdom, the nobles were very rich, and they were all the same as the Middle Eastern tyrants in later generations.
Therefore, the luxury goods that are shipped there are very easy to sell and can make a lot of money.
However, Zhang Yu wants to sell a lot of other products.
Although luxury goods make money, they cannot feed a large number of workers in the country, and cannot bring jobs and wealth to ordinary people.
"If you have the opportunity, maybe you can fight a war with this country, change the situation of ordinary people, maybe increase exports." After reading a stack of materials, Zhang Yu thought about how to expand the value of the entire route.
At present, there are no conditions for war against Tianzhu Kingdom, so Zhang Yu first developed the surrounding area and discovered the value of the entire route.
