"Simple ......" Chang Wei shook his head and said to Sun Jingting: "Brother Xiaozheng, do you think it's simple?" ”

"It's easier said than done." Sun Jingting said: "The continuation should be worthy of us to float a lot for him!" ”

"Admittedly." Chang Wei said: "I will ask someone to bring the wine." ”

To entertain these native chiefs, you can't just eat rice, you have to ask for wine. Chang Wei immediately ordered someone to fetch the wine.

Zhang Xuwen waited for the leaders to wash up, led them to Chang Wei and Sun Jingting, and introduced the identities of the people at the table to them in the words of the alpine natives.

The native leaders were still a little nervous...... They all wore pheasant feathers on their heads, grease on their faces, naked, fur or straw skirts on their bottoms, tattoos on their bodies, and silver or brass rings on their ears or noses...... This is a group of standard savages, and they look very glaring among a group of Han Chinese officials and generals, like a group of clowns.

Perhaps this is also the reason for the wildness and nervousness of these natives, who are always more aggressive when civilizations collide, and they use this to disguise their nervousness and panic......

These natives are barbarians, and they are indeed very backward, with only simple language and rumors and myths, and have not formed higher-level things, such as the cultural inheritance represented by words, and there is no complete social form and level, only the simplest tribal system, which uses associations to protect themselves...... In fact, in terms of race, most of these Alpine people are related to the Austronesian peoples of the Philippines, Malay, and Indonesian archipelagos, and their civilization and language are basically a kind of Malay race.

These aborigines have lived on the island for at least 10,000 years, and due to the closed relationship, there is no progress at all, and their civilization is too far behind that of the Southwest Yi and the Northern and Eastern Captives, who have always been in contact with and collision with China.

"I've seen adults."

As soon as several barbarian leaders heard that Sun Jingting's identity was still above Zhang Xuwen, they immediately couldn't stand.

It's not stupid that they're savage, and it's still clear who the big guys are.

Every time Zhang Xuwen enters the mountain, he has to bring a large amount of salt, sugar, medicinal herbs, and some rare and rare things, and distribute them to the people of various tribes all the way, and his attaché is at least dozens of officials wearing hats or turbans, and then there are about 100 to 200 people in armor, which fully explains Zhang Xuwen's identity and status.

Along the way, these leaders, who had been living in the mountains and were hostile and wary of the aliens around them, opened their eyes to how weak their side was.

They have always lived in the high mountains, there is little fertile land, relying on a small amount of planting and picking wild fruits and vegetables and shooting and fishing for a living, if there is no invasion of outsiders they can survive in this way, although it is very difficult, the average life expectancy is about thirty, the tribe is basically only in the prime of life, even if the so-called elders are forty or fifty years old, generally speaking, the tribe men who exceed this age have died, either from a bad disease or from long-term malnutrition, or from the mouth of a wild beast.

Since the invasion of the Dutch, more natives were captured as wild beasts, the Dutch are not the Ming side of the face of the face, nor can they be emigration from other places on a large scale like Hutchison, the manpower pressure is not great, due to the lack of manpower, when the fort was built, the Dutch sent troops many times into the mountains to capture the mountain people as forced labor, and then they had to settle the fields, and the Dutch people also had to plant sugar cane, and they wanted to hunt deer and kill deer...... The population pressure is very high, which leads to the more ruthless the Dutch methods, and now the alpine natives have hated the Dutch deeply, and of course they are also very afraid of the Dutch.

As for the Ming people, they know very well that a hundred years ago, Fujian fishermen came to Taiwan to fish, using the island to avoid typhoons, dry fish and repair nets, and replenish drinking water. Therefore, when the foreign Dutch made them angry and helpless, Zhang Xuwen's repeated appearance and goodwill finally made these natives willing to cooperate.

This is a big article, the Alpine natives are estimated to have more than 100,000 people on the island, the most are the later Ami and Atayal people, and the proportion of the rest of the small tribes is not large. Zhang Xuwen went into the mountains many times, brought a large number of application items, and dealt with the heads of the various societies formed by these natives many times, the reason was nothing more than to use the manpower of these natives.

There are so many things to do, and immigration is not something that can be done overnight...... Even if Fujian and Liaodong are liberalized for immigration, there are a lot of things to prepare here, and tens of thousands of tens of thousands of people can't be digested at once, and there are more than 100,000 people on the mountain, which can't be used by Hutchison, at least tens of thousands of people...... You can help hunt and hunt deer, you can grow sugarcane and cultivate land, and you can open up tea fields in the high mountains...... At any time, manpower is the most important strategic resource, and if you make good use of it, you will win the world.

The worst thing is to communicate well with these natives, don't regard Hutchison as an enemy, and come to attack twice in three days.

After Zheng Chenggong moved to Taiwan in history, he did three most successful things: first, he drove away the power of the Dutch and snatched back the trade routes opened up by his father.

Second, Liu Guoxuan presided over the planting of sugarcane, although there were repeated due to food pressure, sugarcane became a fairly stable income point in Taiwan, which was maintained until it was wiped out by the Qing army during the Zheng Keshuang period.

Third, it is to do a good job in the relationship with the local people, which is related to Chen Yonghua.

From less than 10,000 armed groups and small-scale immigrants to hundreds of thousands of people in the Kangxi period, the Zheng family has made great contributions to China's establishment of sovereignty over Taiwan in any case.

At this moment, history has deviated, the power of Hutchison on the island of Taiwan has the strength of the Zheng family when he opened up Taiwan, and it is time to intervene in the affairs of the natives in the mountains, otherwise if it drags on, the deeper the hostility, the more it can only rely on force to solve, forming a vicious circle, or it is good to kill the natives and kill them, but it will be protracted, and a lot of manpower will be lost.

When many natives saluted, Chang Wei made a quite appreciative hand gesture to Zhang Xuwen, and with a vivid expression, Zhang Xuwen immediately laughed.

Although Zhang Xuwen's usual personality is gentle and introverted, he is not unsmiling, and he can do such a thing today, young people are already very proud in their hearts, and they laugh heartily at this time, and Sun Jingting and others also laughed when they saw it.

"Continued, it's really extraordinary." Sun Jingting whispered: "But in the future, the placement and use of these natives will also have to be bothered to renew the text, and there is one more thing, I want to remind the continuation of the text, for this generation is like for the villain, the knot is wanted, but it must be used with majesty and punishment to make the other generation know the dignity of the law, and then make it change customs and integrate into my Han family." My Han family is not distinguished by blood but by culture, those who enter China are Huaxia, and those who enter Yidi in Huaxia are Yidi, just like those Han people in Liaodong who have joined the Jurchens, such as Li Yongfang's generation, can they still be regarded as Han people? As for these natives, bringing them back is the first step, and how to use them to make them a part of China in the future is the most important thing...... Don't be too gracious, otherwise the villains will be pampered and arrogant, ignore the law, do their own thing, Han and Yi are mixed, and you must treat them equally, otherwise you will make the Han people dissatisfied, and the oppression of the Yi people will make the Yi people centrifuge. ”

If it is Chang Wei, Sun Jingting will definitely persuade him to use more soft means, everyone is equal under the law, this has been deeply rooted in the hearts of Hutchison, Sun Jingting does not have this worry, only outside the law, acting depends on each person's temperament and habits, Chang Wei is dignified, and Zhang Xuwen is soft, Sun Jingting is also according to the different temperaments of each person to do persuasion, the people present listened, all respected.

At this time, the natives finished saluting, and several people stood on the levy, a little at a loss.

Chang Wei shook his hands at this time and said, "Please sit next to me and Master Sun and drink together." ”

An interpreter said Chang Wei's words, and several heads of the club all looked grateful, and knelt down and kowtowed...... It seems that although they are savage and tough, they are not stupid to the point of being arrogant, knowing that the strength of their side is too far behind the strength of these big people in front of them, Chang Wei's measures made them very moved.

……

At the end of the afternoon, the banquet ended, several local leaders were a large amount of alcohol, Chang Wei and Sun Jingting drank with them for two rounds and saw that the situation was not good, and quickly transferred a few large amounts of wine from the fourth regiment, Lu Da was the leader of the head, although these crop men used to drink a lot of wine, but it was difficult to have a luxurious drinking time, sugarcane wine is sweet and clear, into the throat and sweet, there is no momentum of soju, and it is not as soft as rice wine, it really makes Lu Da and others drink happily, before the end of the afternoon, these local leaders were put down one by one, Of course, Lu Da and the others were also drunk, and they were ordered to go to sleep and rest, and they were not allowed to return to the barracks drunk.

Sun Jingting got off the table early and talked with Chang Wei, Zhang Xuwen, Li Shouxin, and Li Pingzhi in the secret room.

Sun Jingting did not hide it, and told the people in front of him about the quarrel between himself and Zhang Han...... There is some natural distrust of Li Pingzhi's Sun Jingting, which is just a subconscious dislike of people with different temperaments, with Sun Jingting's arrogance, of course, he will not hide the truth because there is more Li Pingzhi...... In fact, the news is transmitted very quickly, and perhaps Taiwan has already known about it.

Sure enough, Chang Wei smiled: "I have faintly heard about this, and I heard that Brother Xiaozheng and Brother Han quarreled, and I was scared half to death...... Later, I inquired because of business, so I was relieved, Brother Han and Brother Xiaozheng quarreled because of business, which is too normal. In fact, in the early years, when Xinpingbao had not yet arrived in Lizhuang, you had already quarreled I don't know how many times, and the people below didn't know it, so I laughed to death if it was a big deal. ”

Sun Jingting thought about it, it was indeed when he was dealing with Hutchison in Lingqiu, he didn't know how many times he had slapped the table with Zhang Han, at that time he regarded Zhang Han as a little brother who was good at doing business, and he didn't have much respect and jealousy, and later as Hutchison got bigger and bigger, and they had an in-law relationship with each other, the number of quarrels dropped sharply, and then Zhang Han's authority gradually increased, and he seemed to be a subordinate.
