After receiving the order from the envoy along the river, the little official was overjoyed at that time, and he could get a lot of benefits from such work. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He then took all the expenses from the bookkeeper, went to collect some supplies, and set out with seven large sea-going ships and some craftsmen.

He was interested in many things at the mouth of the Badao River, and if he took possession, at least he could drink good wine that didn't cost money.

He deducted some of those expenses and put them in his own pocket.

The Zhoushan Islands are collectively known as Fish Island in this time and space.

In that space-time, it is bounded by the East China Sea to the east, Hangzhou Bay to the west, 3 kilometers away from the mainland of Zhejiang Province across the sea to the south, and the Yangtze River estuary to the north.

It was originally an important transportation point, but the Southern Song Dynasty government did not care about it, and there were many places like this on the sea.

Zhoushan is a hilly area of the island, belonging to the subtropical monsoon climate, due to the superior natural environment of the nearby sea area, rich bait, to create good conditions for the migration, habitat, reproduction and growth of fish and shrimp with different habits.

Therefore, it has been famous for its abundant fishery resources since ancient times, so the Great Song people called it Fish Island, but the Great Song people, probably influenced by the habits of the northerners, preferred to eat river fish.

Therefore, marine fish, unless it is famous or fresh, is not easy to sell in the Great Song Dynasty.

This can be seen from the performance of Zhang Guoan who has always wanted to vigorously sell dried marine fish, but it is not easy to sell.

This forced him to sell at a reduced price, and later he had to engage in deep processing of fish floss, so that it could be sold better, which stimulated the development of the fishery in the mouth of the Badao River.

Without a strong fishery and commerce, what did he use to attract the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty to run around?

More importantly, the development of the fishing industry will also provide him with a reserve of technical talents for future ocean navigation.

Therefore, Zhang Guoan is also like the Great Song Dynasty government. Don't even look at the Zhoushan Islands in front of you.

The fishery resources of this time and space, like the timber industry, want to have as much as they want.

Fish Island is now a paradise for small groups of pirates.

There are many natural deep-water harbors here, and you can easily find a suitable place in July and August. Or in winter, you can easily shelter from strong winds.

The little official also wanted to save the money for building the village.

Before leaving, he said to the many sailors who participated in the delivery of the ship: "We are the people who make the envoys along the river, and it is also our duty to stabilize the party, and there are knives, guns, and clubs on the ship, so it is better to catch all the pirates on the fish island and let them work!" Catch a live pirate and give 500 Wen!! ”

There has never been a large group of pirates on Fishy Island, because the surface water system here is not developed and mostly comes from the hilly hinterland. It winds radially into the sea.

The water system is affected by the scale of the island, the flow is short, the catchment area is small, and the water level rises and falls sharply due to heavy rainfall, which is easy to cause natural disasters such as flash floods.

The problem of daily water can only be solved by drilling wells.

Many sailors responded, and some of the artisans even joined in, all of whom knew that the island must be full of small groups of pirates. They are the biggest force, and they don't make money at this time. When to earn?

The little official only cared about the problem of labor, and he gladly agreed to who should be arrested.

For a while, they were united.

Within two days, they were on Fish Island.

Due to the large number of people, they began to become aggressive, going to the places where there might be people living one by one to arrest them. Not to mention, one or two hundred people were really caught!

There were pirates, but there were also fishermen who went ashore to rest, but the little officer was tortured during the interrogation, and they all became pirates.

There was still too little labor------ the little official pointed at some of the fishing boats that were still fishing on the surface of the sea. He said, "Arrest them too, and try them well!" ”

This place is also part of the Wuyue culture, and dried sea fish is not easy to sell, but it does not mean that there are no people who eat fresh sea fish, so there are still some fishermen.

His sailors immediately understood whether it was a pirate or not, and we had to try it before deciding.

They still relied on the large number of people, driving dozens of small boats, to surround those fishermen.

The little official was really happy at this time, and the labor force was now more than three hundred, which was enough.

Many fishermen shouted to hit the sky, but the little official took out his official authority and said, "Are you a pirate, after you have done your work, I will examine you carefully, and if you call again, I will beat you a hundred times first!" ”

The fishermen shrank their heads, they were really scared, and this official really had the right to say it.

In this space, the islands and hills of Zhoushan are also full of wild bamboo forests.

They sourced local materials and had enough labor, so they chose a leeward spot on one of the largest islands in the archipelago, and soon built a cottage.

This will be a stronghold for that little official from now on.

During this period, the Southern Song Dynasty government definitely encouraged the villagers to form a village to protect themselves, believing that this would help prevent the enemy from adopting the strategy of eating the people, but they would not worry about the villagers making a name for themselves and find a way to demolish it.

Therefore, the little official has no psychological pressure on repairing the village.

There are also wells in the village.

The little officer looked around, and felt that there was no problem with the basics, so he released all the fishermen except the real pirates.

He has also been involved for many years, and he still knows whether he is a pirate or not.

Those pirates, he directly punished them as coolies.

He left behind a part of his men and five large sea boats, and went back directly to report the news, his task was completed perfectly, and he also fished out a sum of money, which was all practiced when he was a county official in the past.

At that time, Dajin also fully copied the official system of the Great Song Dynasty, and local people did not become local officials, no matter how good or bad they did, they would leave after three years.

Therefore, the power and role of officials in the area of jurisdiction are often greater than those of officials.

It is easy for them to have the capital and time to make friends all over the world, and of course, it is easier to make a fortune.

Because they are local people and can be inherited by families, there is often a familial style of administration in a governing area, and therefore, their power to promote or hinder reform is considerable.

Da Song also engaged in anti-corruption, but only at the official level, I really don't know why it didn't touch the officials.

In fact, such an anti-corruption campaign may not be of much effect.

The little official reported his good results to Zhu Qing, the envoy of the system along the river, and Zhu Qing was happy to be placed along the river, and gave him a reward, and the income of the little official increased again.

The arrangement along the river made Zhu Qing very happy now, because the outsiders they were looking for quickly recruited more than a thousand pirates.

Of course, the ease with which pirates are recruited has to do with local social and environmental reasons.

The Tatar robbers managed the local area by a Tatar official in the core positions, and the rest was left to the petty officials.

They are only responsible for giving orders.

Tatar officials liked to raise grass in enclosures, and the petty officials attacked ordinary peasants.

The local people who own the most land are either their own families, or they have been related to them for many years, so it is difficult to start, of course, they can only go to ordinary farmers.

Landless peasants can be converted into craftsmen if they have a craft; If you have the capital, you can do business.

There was nothing, because they were close to the sea, so they had to be pirates. (To be continued.) )
