Chapter 790: Mining and Road Construction
Two days later, Zhang Yu met Guo Jia.
"Lord, fortunately not dishonored." Guo Jia said.
Guo Jia handed the treaty to Zhang Yu.
The treaty was all written in Chinese, except for the signature of the Queen of Nafuso.
"In the future, this treaty should be well preserved, even buried in the ground, and it can be shown to future generations after a thousand years." Zhang Yu said with an evil smile.
This is definitely an unequal treaty, and Zhang Yu just wants such a treaty.
Guo Jia couldn't help but want to hit him when he saw Zhang Yumei, so he said: "Lord, my subordinates have collected a lot of scrapes, but there are not many valuable things, and they are only millions of dollars, and they can only recover a fraction compared to the spending." ”
said that he lost a lot of money, but Zhang Yu didn't seem to care at all.
"It's okay, I'll earn it back."
Zhang Yu knew that there were still gold and silver mines in this Fusang, and when the time came, he would use their people to mine for himself, and he would slowly earn it back.
Unlike other places, they are all their own people, Zhang Yu can't pit them, hire them to mine, and the wages will not be less.
Here, for the time being, they are not their own people, at least they have not learned Chinese, and before they learn Chinese culture, Zhang Yu will not recognize them as his own people.
Zhang Yu then explained a lot of things to Guo Jia and asked him to deal with them.
Although he has explained a lot, Zhang Yu will not leave here so quickly.
After occupying Jiujiang, we must also plan for future development.
"Bong-hyo, let the navy start to go around for a week, and occupy some coastal places when there is a chance." Zhang Yu said again.
"Okay, my lord, my subordinates suggest that this place be used as a transit place so that we can proceed with the next step." Guo Jia suggested.
As a transit base, not only Zhang Yu's own fleet will come, but it may also attract the fleet of those merchants.
After so many years of development, many merchants also had their own fleets, but most of them traveled north and south.
As long as there is enough interest, then there will be businessmen coming.
"Yes, after we go back, we will announce the routes and rules, and build two big ports first."
"In addition, if there are displaced people in the country who come voluntarily, they can be given generous rewards."
Jiangdong and Youzhou are too stable, and there are not many displaced people, Zhang Yu and they have been collecting displaced people from all over the country, but the cost is high and the number is relatively small.
Unless there is a time of war, a large number of displaced people will come out at once.
Nowadays there are no major wars, and there are relatively few displaced people.
Originally, there were millions of displaced people in the Xuzhou War, but most of them were arranged by Zhang Yu to develop the route to Tianzhu Kingdom.
Rewards, directly to the people who come voluntarily, may be a better choice, and there can be more.
Naturally, there are people who are willing to take risks.
However, Zhang Yu still felt that if this place could be developed and there would be benefits, then those businessmen would naturally flock to it, and many problems would be solved by then.
Zhang Yu decided to issue some decrees, and in special periods, the mining fields explored by the merchants themselves could directly have the right to mine for many years.
If a gold and silver mine is discovered, and the mine is relatively rich, it is estimated that you can make a lot of money.
Of course, the investment is also huge, and there is also luck.
However, these are not things that Zhang Yu has to consider, and he is responsible for what he wants to do.
"The map should also be drawn as soon as possible, and the more detailed the better." Zhang Yu said.
Guo Jia nodded, he would naturally arrange these.
Guo Jia proposed again: "My lord, in a short period of time, we can't control here, but we can guide those Fusang people on the other side of the river to develop in the direction we want." ”
"What can Feng Xiao do?"
"Forcing their people to rebel." Guo Jia said.
Force them to rebel? At this time, they have a great enemy in front of them, will they rebel?
"How?"
"There is no restriction on their armaments, and they can even sell them weapons and equipment, so that the slave owners will inevitably exploit their people, and they will also need to pay us compensation, so that after a long time, the people will not be able to make a living, and then an uprising will naturally break out."
Guo Jia continued: "And they have to develop armaments, because of our threat, their entire society will not be able to develop, and in the future, we will fight them, in the words of the lord, to liberate them, and it will not be difficult to govern." ”
Guo Jia's plan is very feasible, exploit them, squeeze them, and make their own people unbearable, and then the people's hearts will be towards him.
"Okay, go ahead and do it. The benefits in the past two years will also be given to you, and Jiujiang will be developed as soon as possible. ”
Of course, the gold and silver produced here will have to be brought back to make gold and silver coins, but Zhang Yu will exchange them for copper coins and bring them over.
To develop, you need to have money.
Guo Jia's plan is not difficult, as long as their army does not appear and makes the Fusang people feel threatened, they will continue to expand their army.
And Zhang Yu, they don't want to limit the number of their troops.
It's hard to say how much combat power these people have in the end, even if they have combat effectiveness, they are not afraid, they don't have clever tactics.
To put it mildly, they are a primitive society, with no inheritance of experience, and in the past, wars were all petty fights, and there were no famous generals who wrote any military books and summarized any tactics.
Unlike the land of China, it has been fighting for thousands of years.
Guo Jia's plan didn't know how much the Fusang people would starve to death, but Zhang Yu didn't need them to have that many people.
At this time, although the Fusang queen had unified most of Fusang, the population was only 10 million, and the army was only 100,000, and tens of thousands were killed by Guo Jia.
Things in Kyushu are developing steadily.
There was also a lot of trouble with bringing these people together.
Some people do not obey the rules, and when there are too many people, some people make trouble.
The language communication between the two sides also encountered a big barrier, and there were several chaos.
Later, Zhang Yu directly ordered the knife to be raised, and after seeing the blood, he killed a group of people ruthlessly, and the scene was suppressed.
To Zhang Yu's surprise, after moving the knife, these people became honest, and they were very honest.
This may be the characteristic of this country, which is very capable of pretending to be grandchildren.
But Zhang Yu now just needs them to pretend to be grandsons, honestly build roads for themselves, and open mines for themselves.
These Shura people only need food and don't need wages, so Zhang Yu has a high standard of road planning, first focusing on opening a few roads leading to the port, and then continuing to plan, intending to make the entire island accessible in all directions.
It can be used as a transit place in the future, but the role is not as large as that of the southeast region, and the area around it is not very large.
Zhang Yu stayed there for another month, during which the fleet came twice, bringing the talents and all kinds of supplies he needed.
"Fengxiao, I'll leave it to you here, when will you meet my requirements, and when can you return to China." Zhang Yu said.
