In the fifth year of Tang Zhenguan, Qiongzhou opened the mansion, and the jurisdiction was the northern part of Qiongzhou Island, and the territory of this dynasty was expanded to the entire Qiongzhou Island.

Although the Central Plains regime has ruled Qiongzhou for more than a thousand years, the real development of Qiongzhou is still the current dynasty, but even so, Qiongzhou is still far from the land provinces.

The land of Qiongzhou, with a radius of nearly 600 miles, leaks the air of wilderness everywhere, the endless forests, the poisonous snakes, insects and ants that can be seen everywhere, and the hot and humid climate, which is unbearable.

Qiongshan County is the seat of Qiongzhou Prefecture, and its original population was only 100,000, but at this time it had increased to nearly 600,000, which brought great vitality to Qiongzhou Island and also brought trouble.

At this time, Wang Yan stood beside the simple wharf on the coast of Qiongzhou in reckless clothes, and sea ships full of passengers docked here, moving nearly 200,000 guests from the Quang Nam Prefecture to Qiongzhou Island.

Under the scorching sun, Wang Yan's back was soaked with sweat, but he still stood on the shore, so that the guests who got off the boat could see him, and let the guests know that they were not exiled, and the government cared about their life and death.

In fact, the climate of Guangnan is similar to that of Qiongzhou, and the guests are quite adapted to the climate of Qiongzhou, while the people of Yangzhou came to Qiongzhou from Jianghuai, which can be regarded as a great sin.

In the past more than a month, the people of Yangzhou have fallen ill, and most of them have never been able to get up once they have fallen, which makes Wang Yan's heart full of guilt.

After the blockade of Guangdong was lifted, Wang Yan immediately came to Qiongzhou with a ship full of food supplies and Langzhong, hoping to help the people through the initial difficult period.

At this time, along the simple wharf, along the coast, countless supplies were piled up, and groups of people unloaded bags of rice grain from the boats, and another group of people loaded rice grain into trucks and transported it into the city.

The guests who walked down from the boat, seeing this scene, and seeing the coast, fluttering under the big curtain, looking at them Chu Guogong, their hearts suddenly warmed.

Li Guangsi and Wang Xiu'an, the old members of the guest family in Kaiping County, didn't expect to see Wang Yan here, so they hurriedly left the team to come to visit.

The two led a group of guests and bowed down in front of Wang Yan, and the two were dissatisfied with tears, "Grandpa Guo's kindness to the guests, the guests will never forget!" ”

Wang Yan hurriedly helped the two of them up, and asked gently, "Have all the guests in Kaiping moved over?" The government recycles the fields, but can it be fair? ”

"The clansmen of the grass people have all boarded the boat, and the people who arrived first have already divided the houses, and the grass people are about to thank the Lord Guogong, and Lord He collected the fields in Kaiping, and the price given is one point higher than the market price, which is a great favor from the Lord Guogong to the guests." Li Guangsi said: "However, the grass people saw that Guogong brought so much grain and grass to Qiongzhou, but they regretted not exchanging land for land. ”

The people of Guangnan instinctively chose to exchange the land in their hands for cash instead of replacing the land in Qiongzhou, but now they see the mountains of grain piled up on the coast, but they know that the original worry is after worrying, but they can't help but regret it.

Hearing this, Wang Yan smiled slightly, and after encouraging and comforting him, he let the guests leave.

The next day, Wang Yan and his entourage came to Wenchang County, which is adjacent to Qiongshan County.

After the people of Yangzhou went ashore, they took Qiongshan County as the center and moved to neighboring prefectures and counties.

At this time, Wang Yan, accompanied by Qian Yifeng, Zhou Zhiwei and many other officials, came to a dense forest near the coast, and many people were busy cutting down huge trees and then dragging them to the shore.

"Grandpa Guo, among the people of Yangzhou, many of them were rich and were not good at cultivating wasteland, so some people connected in series, sold the land allocated by the Guogong, and then took out a sum of silver money from the property they carried, and prepared to build their own ships in Wenchang County, and then go to sea to trade." As Qian Yifeng walked, he pointed to the people working around him and explained to Wang Yan: "Xiaguan felt that this Qiongzhou Island was full of trees, and local materials could be used, so he agreed to their request, and the craftsmen brought by Grandpa Guo from Quanzhou were also arranged by Xiaguan in it. ”

Wang Yan listened and watched, and saw that a large area had been cut down in the bay in front of him, and huge trees were piled up as high as a hill.

On the banks of the bay, rows of wooden houses have been erected, and on the coast, simple docks have been erected.

Wang Yan looked at the busy scenes, and couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved, "Our nation is the most diligent, as long as there is a stable environment, the people will soon be able to gain a foothold in Qiongzhou." ”

At this time, he and the others came to the dock, and a group of people hurriedly put down their work and came to pay their respects, and each of them had a face full of hope and the joy of a new life.

Wang Yan looked at everyone, and he was also full of joy, he said that a wealthy businessman who had donated 100,000 stone rice grain in Yangzhou to help him defend the city said: "Feng Lao used to sell salt, can this boat be built now?" ”

When the old man heard this, he said with a smile: "The old man can't build ships, but the craftsmen can, and the old man only needs to be able to settle accounts and make money." ”

"Haha~ Feng Lao is reasonable, this maritime merchant really doesn't need to be able to build ships, and those who sell meat don't need to be able to raise dolphins, and the official doesn't have to do everything himself, he just needs to know people and be good." Wang Yan smiled happily: "Elder Feng's views on affairs are clearer than this governor!" ”

Feng Yingchang hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

When he left Yangzhou, Ling Gongzi looked at the big business and fell into the hands of the Qing soldiers, and he was very reluctant, but Feng Lao said that as long as he settled down in the south, he would be able to earn another family business in a few years. When I look at it today, I know that what Feng Lao said is true. Wang Yan continued: "It just so happens that the Yuedi Naval Division still needs warships, so I can order thirty ships here from Feng Lao?" ”

When Feng Yingchang heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, "Grandpa Guo, this is a great favor to the old man!" The old man will definitely build the ship as soon as possible and hand it over to the grandfather of the country. ”

Wang Yan nodded, "Now that the sea of Guangdong is pure, and the governor has opened the sea in Guangdong, in the short term, maritime trade will become frequent, and then the maritime merchants of Guangdong will inevitably expand their scale, and the ships of this maritime trade will inevitably be in short supply. ”

"What Grandpa Guo said is very true, and the old man has been asking around these days, only to find out that this maritime trade is more profitable than selling salt in the old days." Feng Yingchang thought so, "Our Ming tea, porcelain, transported to Nanyang immediately doubled, and then west to Tianzhu doubled, if to the Great Food, or farther Xiyi countries, then it rose to more than four or five times, it is simply a huge profit." Such a profit makes the old man very tempted, if he saves enough money, he will inevitably recruit sailors and organize a fleet to go to sea. ”

When Wang Yan heard this, he couldn't help but think slightly in his heart, and then said: "Since Elder Feng has a heart for sea trade, why wait until he has saved enough money, this governor will now take out 500,000 taels of silver to give Yangzhou Father as the principal to carry out trade, how about it?" ”
