The Donbas coalfield is a large coal field that is famous all over the world. This is a coal field with a very shallow burial depth and a wide distribution.

In the town of Shine, Zhang Qi led the Tatar women to excavate three coal points. After digging through half a meter of soil, the coal seam is revealed. Covering a vast area from Donetsk to Rostov-on-Don, this super black gold covering a vast area from Donetsk to Rostov is attracting Zhang Qi's pulse.

The people of the steppe moved much faster than the peasants. They just need to pull the family's cattle and sheep carts, circle them, and it's OK. Therefore, the prototype of Shine Town was built by herders.

Under the black soil is black gold, I have to say, this is a magical fate.

The first batch of forty or fifty tons of coal was brought back to Chizhou by those ships. When the coal ships returned to Chizhou and passed through the Chizhou Strait, they found that there were also traces of people on the previously uninhabited peninsula above the Taman Peninsula. Rows and rows of houses are being built there, and it looks like at least hundreds of people are living in makeshift homes.

When they returned to Chizhou, while unloading coal, another group of pioneers on the dock was preparing to set off. Their goal is precisely to connect the port and the Bobrikov goldfields. So the merchant ships will continue to take this group of people on the road after unloading the coal. In the near future, coal transportation will become a long-term profitable industry.

[Wei Yang, the word Baixiu, Tianshui people. Having been in business since childhood, he has been rampant in Longyou and Monan for 20 years. The strong man of the merchant gang is also. 】

Wei Yang, the new director of the Colonial Bureau, took the 1,500 people on the road to the strange journey. A pioneer team of 1,000 people, gold miners of 500 people. The gold mine has been named Jinshanwei and is directly under the jurisdiction of the central government. According to Meng Zhuoyan's prediction, within a year, it will become a financial supervisor.

In fact, not far from the merchant ships, under the six warships, Qin Cang was talking to the newcomer Li Anshi.

[Xinzhou Mansion Yin Li Anshi, the word Zixiu, Nanyang people. Less martial arts, ten bravery. The township could not control it, so it was entrusted with the task of driving away thieves. After ten years, he became more and more stable, not impatient or impatient. Try the imperial examination and get to the top! It is also known as "Nanyang Yimingsheng". 】

Li Anshi, looking at the introduction, is a talent who can write and martial arts. And more importantly, compared to Wei Yang, who is not amazing or even a little ugly, Li Anshi undoubtedly has a great future.

To put it bluntly, it is handsome.

After all, the emperor's selection of people in front of the emperor also depends on their appearance. Ugly ....... I can't even pass the township test......

Li Anshi is undoubtedly handsome enough and dignified.

At the meeting, Qin Cang and others decided to change the name of the new territory to Xinzhou Mansion as the second prefecture-level governance of the kingdom. On the other hand, of course, beware of the prying eyes of Ottoman Turkey. Fortunately, however, the eyes of Ottoman Turkey were now focused on Constantinople. What's more, their navy has not yet begun to develop, and a group of small sampans can't stop Qin Cang's navy at all.

"You are going to Xinzhou Mansion to control the capital Mistras, and secondly, to stabilize all places. Xinzhou Province was ceded to us by the Greeks, and there were about 100,000 Greeks there. The industry is dominated by silk from the left side of Mistras and wheat, olive oil and grapes from the plains. You don't have to worry about safety. Because Xinzhou Province is separated by mountains on the left and right, there are also mountains in the north. Small villages beyond the mountains, don't worry too much. Your goal is mainly to control the Laconian Plains! Build a stable system!

If the Ottoman Turks attack! Hurry up and run with our people! It's not that I underestimate you, but the Ottoman Turks are riding the fortune of the empire at the moment and have a strong army! A few years ago, the Collins Wall was broken in World War I and 60,000 Greeks were taken captive, so remember not to lose your energy. ”

Qin Cang and the others' wishes are very simple, the Principality of Morea is a small place, if you can ask for it, you won't feel distressed if you lose it. The artillery was only used to slow down the rise of the Ottoman Turks.

So there is no doubt that Andrew Lee did not receive more support. He only set off with 500 Han cavalry and 1,000 pioneer regiments.

This time it was Chen Jia who led the team. The other day, Carlo was dead. As for how he died, this one is a bit questionable. Because the Italians clearly saw their old captain and a Greek ** absurd overnight, and the next day they went away in a trance; And rumors say that this is the penultimate person who is going to die. Because the Swiss Ham Green is still alive.

Six large ships carrying some of the woolen wool took them south.

Of course, Li Anshi understood what Qin Cang meant. However, for this mission, he was not very optimistic about this task after discussing it with Qin Changan in the middle of the night. Suppressing 100,000 Greeks with 1,500 men? Li Anshi thought this was a bit ridiculous.

"Compared to Li Fu Yin, why is there 1,500 people, no, 500 cavalry can suppress 100,000 Greeks, right?" Chen Jia smiled and handed Li Anshi a glass of wine. Li Anshi wanted to refuse at first, but after smelling the smell and finding that it was liquor, he immediately followed.

Wine is a daily meal for locals, but it is not a fan of Han Chinese. Li Anshi still likes strong baijiu Daqu.

"Hehe, this Lord Li doesn't know. The Duchy of Morea was the land of money and food for the kingdom of Rome, but not the land of soldiers and horses. Do you know how many people the Romans needed to regain this place more than 20 years ago? ”

Li Anshi asked hesitantly: "Five thousand?" ”

"No!" Chen Jia stretched out four fingers, "About four hundred people are enough." Or infantry. ”

"This ......." Li Anshi was a little surprised.

Chen Jia continued: "Li Fuyin, do you know how the country of Ottoman Turkey ruled countless infidels with a mere people? ”

"I don't know. I also asked Eunuch Chen to explain it to me. Li Anshi vaguely felt that this conversation was not so simple.

"The Greeks value profit over righteousness. In the past, it was said that they would rather have the Ottomans' fur hat than the papal scepter. This is because if you are a subordinate of a brother of the same clan, you will never be less taxed. In the case of pagan Ottoman subjects, they only had to pay tithes to the Orthodox church, and then pay a pagan tax every year.

Compared to the misery of the same brothers, the heretics naturally have unspeakable advantages for others. ”

Li Anshi suddenly brightened.

Under Ottoman Turkey, taxes were not so severe, and of course people yearned for them; In other kingdoms, onerous taxes can be overwhelming.

Now that Andrew Lee has come empty-handed as a pagan, how can he not follow the example of the Ottoman Turks?

"Thank you, Eunuch Chen, for your advice."

Chen Jia waved his hand and said mysteriously, "You should thank you, it's the king." ”
