Seeing that several leaders of the rebel army were looking at each other in amazement, Li Buqi knew that they had thought things simple, so he smiled and said, "Xiucai, you are contradicting yourself." There is no one in the world who is suitable for human survival. The Borderlands are truly unfit places. You want the land to be fertile and ownerless, but I'm afraid that the world really can't find such a place. ”

"Then the Peach Blossom Paradise ......"

"Tao Yuanming said that the people who first came to Peach Blossom Land were to avoid the war in the Qin Dynasty, and there would be no fertile fields waiting for them at that time, right? How do you know that when they first arrived at the Peach Blossom Spring, they were not full of miasma and thorns? Even if you are cultivating the wasteland in the Central Plains, is there still a fertile land? ”

Although the Great Song Dynasty is still sparsely populated compared to later generations, the land suitable for cultivation has really been almost reclaimed, and if you want to find a fertile wasteland, I am afraid that the only way to find a fertile wasteland is to go to Jinghu Road and other places that are still considered barbaric land, and it may not be better than Tamna Island. Therefore, Li Buqi really did not lie, and although several leaders of the rebel army still had dissatisfaction in their eyes, they could not refute it.

People always have an instinctive fear of the unknown future, especially when they hear that there are many difficult places, and it is normal for these people to have some psychological gaps. Li Buqi hurriedly encouraged these people: "You only see that the land on this island is a little barren, but you don't see its benefits. There is no severe cold on this island in winter, and the climate is very suitable for people. Moreover, the island has abundant water and grass, which is very suitable for grazing cattle and sheep. Although the land on the island is barren, it is because the natives do not know how to farm, so you bring my Great Song farming tools and bring the cattle there, and the land there can be cultivated. ”

"And this island is rich in fertilizer, as long as you catch some fish, and the fish rot into the ground as fertilizer, the yield of the land is only higher than that of the Great Song Dynasty. Later, the wind direction changed accurately, so that the sea ships could travel between this island and Dengzhou in just two or three days, and they could raise horses on the island and sell them to the Central Plains. Ten years later, it's no wonder that this island is not rich in flowing oil. ”

Raising horses is not nonsense. Tamna Island is Jeju Island, and the traveler remembers that Jeju Island was an important horse breeding ground in the Yuan Dynasty, and when the Yuan Dynasty was driven to Mobei by Comrade Lao Zhu, there were still 20,000 or 30,000 horses left on Jeju Island.

Hearing Li Buqi's words, and seeing Zhou Qing nodding again and again, the leaders of the rebel army looked a little better. Li Buqi continued to analyze the benefits of Tamna Island: "This island is more than 100 miles away from the coast of Goryeo, and it is difficult to communicate without large ships. The ability of the Koreans to build ships is average, as long as you bring a few ships from the Great Song Dynasty, you are not afraid of the Koreans attacking, and you will manage it slowly, and this island will be yours. ”

The leader of Shi Niu Shi asked: "But I can't handle a ship, and I have never been to sea." ”

Li Buqi said: "It's okay to do this. I've already planned it. You selected 200 strong men to go to Dengzhou with Manager Zhou to familiarize themselves with the ship. The rest of the people had to learn how to raise horses, farm, strike iron, and medicine. You have a year to study, so that when you get to the island, you will be self-sufficient. ”

Li Buqi turned to Zhou Qing, who was still a little dazed, and said: "Goryeo surrenders to the Liao State, and it is inconvenient for you to land on the shore of Goryeo. They have put down roots on Tamna Island, and you will have a reliable port in the future, and you will no longer have to worry about the Koreans embarrassing you. ”

Zhou Qing suddenly realized, and nodded happily: "There is nothing for the people on Tamna Island, even the swords and guns of the Goryeo people are far worse than my Great Song Dynasty, if there are hundreds of people with weapons over, they can occupy this island." ”

At this time, Ying Niangzi suddenly spoke: "In this way, such a big island, we are still too few, and we still need more people." ”

Li Buqi was trying to get more people overseas, so he immediately said: "There are more than 10 million people who have fled from the Great Song Dynasty, and there is no shortage of people. Didn't you bring out more than 300 people from the mountains this time? There is another island several times larger in the northeast of this Tamna Island, and you will eventually go there, and you people are far from what I want. ”

It was a matter of great importance for the future, and the rebels couldn't help but discuss it again when they returned to the area assigned to them to live. When recruiting An, because of the current crisis, some people didn't think much about the future, but the crisis at that time was eliminated, and their requirements were higher.

Someone asked Xiucai dissatisfiedly: "Xiucai, didn't you say that Li Buqi promised that the overseas places are very fertile, why is Li Buqi going to throw us on a desert island now?" ”

Luo Xiucai's understanding of the Peach Blossom Source was too good at that time, so he blew it a little big, and now he was a little embarrassed, so he had to say: "Didn't Li Tiju say that there is a big island in the northeast of that island, and it should be better there." ”

Or did the leader of Shi relieve Xiucai: "I think Li Buqi said it well, there will be no fertile land waiting for you anywhere, as long as we have the final say in that place, we don't have to be oppressed by others, where can't we live?" There is no need to hide in Tibet like the mountain people who fled to the mountains, we do not lack strength, and it is not necessarily not a place for living people to clean up the island. ”

Ying Niangzi also helped: "Yes, if Li doesn't give up and doesn't follow his kindness, he just throws us on the island and leaves us to fend for ourselves, why bother to let us learn to raise horses, learn to strike iron, and learn medicine?" It must be us who are useful to him. Since it is useful, he may not dare to be too harsh. ”

In this way, the hearts of the people were somewhat calmer. When everyone dispersed, only Shi Ling, Luo Xiucai and Luo Yingniang were left, but Luo Yingniang said: "Brother Shi, brother, it seems that most of the overseas things that Li Buqi said today are true, but they are not as good as he said, but they may not be. Therefore, in order to prevent him from trapping us, the slave family wanted to get closer to Li Buqi to see if he was a trustworthy person. ”

Luo Xiucai absolutely didn't want her sister to be wronged, and immediately said: "I have this matter, how can I let you show up as a woman." ”

Luo Yingniang said: "My brother is still too gullible to be gullible. Brother Shi still needs to restrain our people, and there is not so much leisure, so it is best for the slave family to do this matter. ”

Leader Shi knew that his temperament was a little rough and his ability to play with his heart was a little worse, so he didn't object, but he was a little worried: "I see that Li Buqi glanced at Ying Niangzi, it may not be a good thing, you don't want to suffer his loss." ”

Ying Niangzi said confidently: "The slave family has its own legitimate reasons to approach him. If he has bad intentions, the slave's double knife is not a vegetarian. ”

Two days later, at breakfast in the morning, Luo Xiucai brought Ying Niangzi to Li Buqi and said that the 200 people sent to Dengzhou had been selected and could leave at any time. After saying this, he said: "Lifting, I have been here for a few days and heard that the means of lifting are unfathomable, and if you can learn half a point, you will benefit immensely." I will go overseas in the future, and the road ahead is bumpy, and I don't know if I can teach one or two means? ”

Li Buqi said: "That's all mixed up by people, I just have a little more ideas than others, and you will naturally be able to understand it after you get along with me for a long time in the future." I don't hide these ideas, but how much you can learn is up to you. ”

Luo Xiucai didn't expect the early foreshadowing to be so smooth, she was secretly happy in her heart, and hurriedly said: "My sister is much smarter than me, I want my sister to learn some skills from her side, I don't know if I can agree?" ”

Li Buqi thought he was very pure, but since he washed his underwear twice in three days since Hu Sanniang**, he also had a pursuit in his heart. There's a beautiful Lori by your side, even if you can't get started, it's not eye-catching. So he readily agreed.

Luo Xiucai also had to go back and arrange for people to learn various skills from the craftsmen and grooms, and he just said a few words. Li Buqi ate dinner and casually said to the big Lori standing aside: "Please pour a bowl of water." ”

Lori poured water and gently put it in front of Li Buqi, Li Buqi sighed in his heart that Lori was so gentle than Tao Lin. It's a pity that it's a little widow, otherwise maybe she can play with it or something.
