Huang Yucheng said: "Brother Shedi said that the main methods are to burn the wasteland and drink boiled water, and the camp uses lime water to disinfect and isolate the sick people. ”
Zhang Han said: "This is not bad, as the number of people increases, there will be more places to open out, while opening, while controlling, there is no good way." ”
He looked at Huang Yucheng again and encouraged: "If Yucheng has anything, you can say it bluntly." ”
Huang Yucheng said: "It's still related to Taiwan's affairs, my brother said, Taiwan's rice planting is appropriate, and it's easier to plant sweet potatoes." Someone in the army brought sweet potatoes over, originally planted at will, just as a joke, who expected that the sweet potatoes grew very large, and the growth time was reduced by nearly half compared to the same time, and the sweet potatoes that grew were big and sweet, and the taste was excellent......"
"That's right, I haven't received an official report yet." Zhang Han was a little surprised when he heard it at first, but he was relieved when he thought about it.
In that kind of place in Taiwan, rice is cultivated twice a year, a growth cycle is 120 days, a time is 100 days, two crops a year, the yield is extremely high, and later generations are called the granary of the sea, and its rice output can feed the whole island more than enough to be exported. With high temperatures, plenty of sunshine every year, and a humid and rainy climate that is enough to irrigate farmland, it is a good place to feed many people even without modern agriculture.
Its agriculture is very good, the fruit yield is high, and there are many kinds of good taste, but in the early days of the Taiwan exhibition, in addition to rice, there were three most important crops: tea, sugar cane, and sweet potato.
Even three hundred years later, many Taiwanese people have sweet potatoes in their memories, which is one of the most important foods for the Taiwanese people, big, sweet, and rare good things.
Sugarcane is also important, and Taiwan has long been instructed to plant sugarcane, a cash crop, in large quantities, as long as there is enough food to eat.
From the end of the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, Taiwan's most important export commodity was sugar, and sugarcane was sold overseas from the end of the Ming Dynasty. It is difficult for later generations to imagine that in this era, not only salt was the most sought-after commodity controlled by the imperial court, but white sugar was a luxury item that was rarer and more expensive than salt!
"Huang Yu'an's letter, I also read it." Kong Minxing said: "On the Taiwan side, it may be that the scope of land controlled and reclaimed now is not large, so it is not eager for the planting of new crops, and there is no official official document. ”
Zhang Han looked at Kong Minxing and said, "That's true...... At present, with our efforts, Heyusheng is not short of food. ”
"But sooner or later, Taiwan will have to relocate people on a large scale." Kong Min said: "If everything is not foreseen, it will be wasted, now there are less than 10,000 people over there and Yusheng, it is enough to grow some rice for grain, if there are 100,000 or even 200,000 people?" Maybe in 10 years' time. I know Wen Lan's plan, in the north to the grassland, Xu Tu expansion, as long as the Ming Dynasty does not have civil strife, Wen Lan will not personally start the war to be a rebel and thief, and Taiwan was originally not a Chinese land, and the situation is the same as the grassland, hundreds of thousands of people are moved, and there are benefits of sea trade, and then based on farming, to put it mildly, the foundation of self-reliance is much stronger than the grassland. If Taiwan is the foundation and the division is striving for the South Seas, without farming, it will be like a tree without roots. ”
"In addition," Kong Minxing said eagerly, "I am also very interested in sugarcane planting. I think that I will take care of the cotton fields here for a few more months, and leaving Yucheng and others will be enough to ensure the planting of cotton fields next year, and I will take some people to Taiwan to preside over the reclamation and trial planting of sweet potatoes, etc., and lay a good foundation over there, which will be the foundation for the establishment of a business in the future. ”
Zhang Han said helplessly: "As soon as you started, I knew what you meant......"
"So you're trying your best to stop it." Kong Minxing smiled very happily, is there a way for an agronomist and enthusiast to be more satisfied with this kind of life?
"If Brother Zhi must go." Zhang Han said helplessly: "Let's take the family over, run around for He Yusheng like this, and the court can't hide it." ”
After He Yusheng was in the limelight, Xu Guangqi personally wrote two more letters to Kong Minxing, of course, to persuade him to stay away from the whirlpool and not to be too involved with Zhang Han and He Yusheng.
So far, Kong Minxing can also say that he is embezzling money, being employed by He Yusheng, and focusing on farming is not as good as anything else. But if you go to a place like Taiwan to run overseas territories for He Yusheng, this statement will definitely not be forgiven to the princes of the imperial court.
The longer this era becomes, the more Zhang Han knows that he can't underestimate the talents of this era, maybe they are limited to their way of thinking and are not prepared enough for Zhang Han's rise, and they can't come up with a way for the time being, but if it involves treacherous things in people's hearts, Zhang Han doesn't dare to underestimate anyone.
There are enough smart people among the scholars and doctors of the Ming Dynasty, but they don't spend their energy on state affairs for various reasons.
"It's fine." Kong Minxing thought for a moment and replied: "There is no wealth that cannot be left behind, Humble Jing originally just watched a son and a daughter study, and it is the same everywhere." ”
"I heard that my sister-in-law is unwilling to let her children go to school?" Zhang Han joked with Kong Minxing: "The father is a miscellaneous scholar, but the son can only be born in pure Confucianism, who will take over the mantle?" ”
"Humble Jing is very stubborn in this matter." Kong Minxing said helplessly: "As soon as she mentioned this, she said that I can't come from the right path, I can only do this, and my son is young and smart, and in the future, I will be a jinshi and earn a reputation for us." ”
This is also the common idea of people at that time, if the father is not allowed to enter the scholar, the son is in, the parents can also get the official title of false gift, in many things different from the common people, such as the regulation of the tomb and some daily etiquette, now the air of the people is loose, before the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the identity of officials and civilians is a very clear gap, including the size of the door, the color of the clothes, the style of daily utensils, etc., Kong Minxing's identity is only between civilians and officials, It's not really a nobleman.
"It's human nature." Zhang Han comforted: "The names and lords of the imperial court are precious, especially the civil officials, and it is not surprising that Mrs. Zun does not want her brother to accept the position of a martial artist. ”
A scholar like Mao Yuanyi is a military officer, and all the way to the deputy chief soldier is an outlier, and Mao Yuanyi is not even a showman, many people can accept the name of praise painting, but the main thing is to be a staff member to get the function, and then be recommended as a civilian official, like Sun Yuanhua is to take this road, the same identity can still be the governor, compared to being a deputy chief soldier is much stronger, the Ming Dynasty is not a big talk, the general soldier in front of the governor do not say the seat, even standing is a reward, the governor is displeased, the general soldier has to kneel down to answer, A strong general soldier like Li Rusong is only an outlier after all.
Kong Minxing didn't say anything, he pointed to the avenue and said, "Tangma." ”
The Tang Horse with the small red flag finally arrived at the place, and after stopping, he said loudly: "Report to your lord, Daqingshan Fort has an urgent report, and the northbound mission and the chasers have returned from the north." ”
"Good, great!"
If there is anything worrying about Zhang Han recently, there is no doubt that it is the news of the mission, even if it is a long way, but the time has dragged on for too long.
In addition to official business, he also has to go to the third uncle, and a Zhang Xuzong died, if the continuation dies again, Zhang Han doesn't know how to explain to the old man, it is likely that Zhang Xuezeng can't accept the facts, the old man's health is not very good, if this is the result, how can Zhang Han be embarrassed.
"What's the news?" Kong Minxing is also very concerned, the mission to the north is related to the important trade route of Yusheng in the future, everyone knows that the trade route with Dongyu will definitely be closed in the next few years, and the sea trade alone may not be able to digest the profits of the north, and everyone does not know that in a few years, the north of the Ming Dynasty will fall into serious war, at least half of Shaanxi and Shanxi, as well as Henan and other places everywhere, not to mention the business road, the people are easy to eat, how to buy and sell to make money?
The northern trade route and Taiwan, one south and one north, now seem to be very important.
Zhang Han glanced at the Tang newspaper a few times, and said with a smile: "Very good, all the northern missions returned safely, under the double threat of the chasers and the mission, Tushetu Khan killed the white horse and swore an oath to us, and the trade routes in Mobei can be reopened in the future." ”
Kong Minxing laughed and said, "Okay, great." ”
"Hey, swear to kill the white horse!" Zhang Han also laughed and said, "I thought of it." That's fine, they can be regarded as taking the initiative to lose their sincerity to us, I have to send someone of enough weight over to give them a face, and then the three Khans of Mobei obediently come to meet with me again and express their submission, so that everyone can be considered to have negotiated! ”
Kong Minxing smiled and said nothing, he would not participate in such a thing.
"Well, of course it's Li Zunlu who ......went over" Zhang Han's excitement couldn't be hidden, no matter what kind of idea Mobei had on the side, but as long as the trade route was reopened, and Yusheng could go to the military station to replenish, that is, he could go to build a fort, of course the fort over there could not be built as dense as the Monan side, the materials could not be transferred, the personnel were not sufficient, and the distance was too far, and it was impossible to do it with the manpower and material resources at this stage, but as long as it could be built, it would be useful, build less central forts, and then build some solid military stations as military station supply points, so as to slowly swallow and infiltrate, It was only a matter of time before Mobei really fell into the hands of He Yusheng.
When they come to their senses, this time the Han people come over completely different from the past, I am afraid that they will be powerless.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Han couldn't help but get excited...... Everything is slowly unfolding, in this era he has mastered half of the grassland, with Mo Nan as the core, actively relocated the Han people, with a small number of manpower and trade means to control Mo Bei and the set of departments and even the Western Regions, and then take advantage of the situation to fight with the most vicious enemy, although at present, the Jurchens are still far away, and the two sides only have small-scale battles on the insignificant battlefield, but at least for now, everything Zhang Han has done has sufficient returns, and Mobei's submission makes him feel that his layout is very effective, making him more confident, I also feel that I have extraordinary power in my hands, and my every move can affect such a big place and control the fate of countless people!
A feeling of turmoil and turmoil, above the top, arises spontaneously!
"Let's hurry back to Qingcheng." Zhang Han took a deep breath and said, "Prepare, I will personally go north to meet the mission." ”
"Dare to disobey." Kong Minxing said with a smile.
