Gold, gold mines, no matter what time it is, except for the primitive tribes, that is attractive!

The office of the Western Development Agency of Australia in Lin'ancheng, Da Song, suddenly became lively.

The Governor of Gnawing Dog immediately began to get busy, of course, the people who could contact him at his level were all figures at the level of big businessmen and big households.

At least 100 square kilometers of exploration rights have to be contracted at once------- of course, the owner of Zhang Island will not let the people who go to pan for gold fight each other non-stop in order to discover gold mines, he wants order and reasonableness.

Therefore, he asked the governor of Gnawing Dog, who came back to report on the work, to demarcate the general area in advance and sell the exploration rights in blocks.

With the help of civilian Seahawk-style clippers, the gnawing dog can return from there to the Badaohe area within fifteen days.

Zhang Daozhu read his written work report and listened to his oral report, and felt that he was very reliable in handling things, and his work achievements were greater than he imagined.

I was especially pleased with the cooperation between him and Captain Davimen.

Zhang also heard that the prisoners who were sent to the development got along very well with the members of the Liuqiu Army, and he laughed, which is a typical "Stockholm complex".

The labor prisoners are in an environment where they do not understand, there is no external information inflow, and their life and death safety are in the hands of the team members, so it is easy to get along with each other, and even inseparable from the team members.

After discussing with Wang Defa's family, Zhang decided to let Gnawing Dog be the governor of Western Australia, and at the same time promoted Dai Weiming to squadron leader through Captain Bao Wei, and sent an additional army team, after all, with the development of future development work, there may be more people who venture there.

Zhang didn't want it to become a jungle society.

Nana, the little lady of the governor of the dog gnawing dog, danced for him with a big belly, look at it, my dog gnawing dog didn't learn that chicken to be a son-in-law and be a big official!

My dog is the smartest and most capable husband!

My dog is the governor, and he is in charge of a place bigger than Liuqiu Island!

The encouragement from his family was immense, which made him more enthusiastic about his work.

The Governor of Gnawing Dog was very attentive to the big businessmen who were interested in buying exploration rights, and those people were sent to his door to help him develop Western Australia at his own expense.

There are people who will have wealth, where there are the most people, where the wealth is greatest------ of course the governor understands this, so he will not treat the people as a burden, and he thinks that the people have a large population, which is the idea of the Tatar bandit group.

He kept reporting to the Streaming Times, praising Western Australia as a paradise.

Of course, he did not deceive others.

That place is originally a place where no matter whether it is timber cutting, farming, animal husbandry, mining, or fishing------ there is no such thing!

And even the slowest route is only forty-five days, except for some big storms in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, the rest of the sea can be said to be a lake!

Zhang did not want him to put profit first, but wanted him to make attracting people the most important goal.

To reach 500,000 people in five years!

The Governor of the Dog Gnawing Dog heard this target, his head was big, 500,000 people------ isn't that population more than the number of people in Sidaohe City?!

However, the owner of Zhang Island was extremely confident, and he said: "You should keep one thing in mind, as long as you have set the rules and can ensure that they can be followed------ you don't have to worry too much about the rest."

Gold mines, as long as they find a place, it is likely that you will no longer need to publicize and help, and I don't know how many people will take the initiative to ask to go! ”

The owner of Zhang Island never underestimated the thirst for wealth of the people of the Great Song Dynasty------ they had not been emasculated by the Tatar bandit group, and there was no idea in their minds that money was the source of evil, and that men and women were not close to each other.

In the Great Song Dynasty, the ability to explore gold, silver, copper and iron ore was very strong, and there was no need for Zhang Island Master to worry about this.

The Great Song Dynasty government allowed private mining, and they were not afraid of what would happen if the miners gathered in some, but the mining tax charged was relatively high, and some copper mines reached 30%!

Maybe those local officials think that you dug out of the ground for nothing anyway, and the 30% tax is not high!

In fact, some mine owners can barely do it, but the enthusiasm is not high.

The Governor of Gnawing Dog directly announced that no matter what kind of mineral deposits, as long as they are explored, they belong to individuals, and only one percent of the tax will be charged, which will remain unchanged for a hundred years------ in addition to welcoming big businessmen and big outdoors, small and medium-sized merchants and mine owners, whether they are forming groups to buy exploration rights, or private individuals going to find them outside the scope of the exploration rights, he expressed his support on behalf of the owner of Zhang.

Of course, the Governor of Gnawing Dog had some map coordinates of important mineral deposits given to him by the island owner, and he was ready to make a move at the right time.

The Great Song Dynasty government was constantly unwinding and thinking about collecting the "recovery tax" on the east and west roads of Shandong, and the cost of recruiting laborers was not high, which was much worse than that of Liuqiu Island.

On the other hand, the tax on the island of Liuqiu has been continuously reduced, especially since there are no various fees imposed by some local officials, and some small workshops have to find a way to move their businesses to the newly developed cities of Liuqiu Island, where the conditions for opening up are better.

As for the common people who have no career, only two legs and two hands, they also have a chance, they can choose to go to Australia to take risks------ at most pay for the travel expenses, but what if they find a big gold mine?!

The "Liuqiu Times" did not publish the map of the southern hemisphere as it did last time, everyone only knew that there was a place in Western Australia, and they could only follow the arrangement of the governor of Liuqiu Island, when to leave, how to go, and which sea boat to take.

Chairman Cai Erlang of New Oriental Group went to Lin'an City to find him in person, and such a good thing cannot forget New Oriental Company------

Chairman Cai Erlang opened his mouth to ask for 10,000 square kilometers of grassland, which scared the governor of the dog!

Chairman Cai Erlang smiled faintly and said: "This is just a preliminary purchase------- we will make additional purchases after we see the results, we have been trying to find a suitable pasture, but the Shandong region and Jeju Island are occupied by the owner of Zhang-------"

Governor Gnawing Dog asked a little strangely, "You're not interested in gold mines?" ”

"Of course I'm interested------ the board of directors has discussed, we don't need to buy any exploration rights, it's better to let others find it, and when the time comes, we will make a price to buy it, saving effort and manpower!"

Well, the capitalized New Oriental thinks differently from others-------

The gold mines in Western Australia have become a hot topic among the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and everyone is talking about it, although it is a few people who take action, but it is the unifying dream of the people to imagine making a fortune.

But those high-ranking officials in the Great Song Dynasty government scoffed at this, they never believed in casually getting rich or falling gold from the sky, these people have always relied on steady behavior to rise to high positions step by step, and naturally they are not interested in adventures and other things!

Steadily pluck the goose feathers of the people, don't let them cry out in pain, don't let them rebel, and establish their own merits------ this is the best policy!

Going overseas to dig gold in a place where I don't know where to go------ that's crazy!

So far, there has not even been a single official above the third grade on Liuqiu Island------ the owner of Zhang Island smiled bitterly, these sub-literati officials are really extremely conservative, he is always vigilant that he has the kind of stubbornness of middle-aged and elderly people.

His partner, someone from the Lu Clan's military group, took the initiative to come to him again.
