Four hundred and thirty-six is still poor
The strategic position here in Guangzhou in the south is still good, of course, now that Liu Zhang has developed a place like Shanghai, Guangzhou can actually take a slowdown. However, with the development of Shanghai, it still needs to be developed. After all, the South has a lot of resources, enough to supply the entire North. It is really too difficult to walk the mountain road, but now with the waterway, some resources can be transported to the north in a steady stream. The temperature here is normal all year round, and all kinds of food are eaten all year round. Of course, the most important thing is the three-season rice, although that kind of thing may taste a little worse, but after all, it is food that can save countless people. Compared to the speed of grain production in the north, the south is simply not too fast.
If it is combined with Liu Zhang's more scientific planting methods, then the food here can be endless. It can not only enrich the lives of the people here, but also increase the food output here. At that time, as long as there is a fleet, grain will not be stranded in the south, which is difficult to preserve.
In ancient times, productivity was low, and the preservation of grain was also quite difficult. The humidity and heat in the south are very harmful to food, and it can only be preserved if it is sent to the north, and Liu Zhang's fleet is very important. Besides, as long as you use a little snack in the south, there is no shortage of food here. All kinds of vegetables and fruits are available in all seasons, and you may not be able to eat them well. If it is the north, there are many problems, but it is precisely because of the lack of living pressure and the harsh environment that the south seems to lag behind in civilization.
"Natives? Sit down and have a bite to eat, I'm afraid I didn't eat when I woke up so early. "Liu Zhang is tired of eating breakfast at sea, after all, no matter how delicious it is, you can't eat it every day.
Shi Xie was a little hesitant, facing such a young character, he suddenly felt very pressured. I heard that the Sun clan of Jiangdong was under his attack, and even Yue Yu did not hold out. Although they didn't know what the situation was in the north, a person as strong as the Sun family couldn't even hold on for more than a month......
"The whole world is not the king's land, and I naturally have something to do here. There have been wars in the Central Plains in recent years, and you seem to be quite safe here? Liu Zhang said lightly.
Shi Xie didn't know what Liu Zhang meant, but the faint dissatisfaction in his tone could still be heard: "General Liu, don't blame the southern region for being really scarce, we don't have many soldiers, and most of the people can't afford to eat, we really can't do anything." What's more, we don't have a huge ship as big as the general, and there is really nothing we can do about the affairs of the north. Shi Xie can only say that he has the ability and no ambition, otherwise he would not have directly taken refuge in Sun Quan. Of course, in this kind of place where only bird poop is left, it is difficult to be a little ambitious.
Liu Zhang nodded and did not blame them, Liu Zhang was very clear about the situation here: "I am going to build a huge wharf here in Panyu, which will be used as a key city for development in the future." A city not inferior to Chang'an, of course, you may think I'm joking, but I'm serious enough to tell you that's what it's all about. "It is possible to attack the cities to the west from the sea, and it should have good mobility for attacking India in the future.
Shi Xie was a little confused, it felt like someone got up in the morning and told you, do you want to give you some money to spend? Fix your house? Anyway, it's not a very real feeling: "The general isn't joking, the entire Jiaozhou is poor and bad, what is there to value here?" ”
Liu Zhang's hand knocked on the table and said, "I'm talking about this when you are obedient, I brought more than just ideas this time...... Liu Zhang put down his chopsticks, his appetite for breakfast was not very good, and he couldn't eat much.
Shi Xie was stunned for a while, because he didn't know Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang was too strong. If you don't obey me, I'll clean up your plan. Speaking of which, he is still a little cowardly, because Liu Zhang's ship is very large. In a sense, a big ship means a strong one. Liu Zhang has so many fleets, and he is so aggressive. I didn't intend to talk to him at all, and I had the intention of doing it if I didn't agree with him.
"Shi Xie was originally an official of the imperial court, and what the general said must be the will of the imperial court." Saluting can be regarded as an indirect recognition, perhaps because Liu Zhang's attitude is too strong, and he doesn't have the slightest feeling of Corporal Lixian.
Liu Zhang didn't care about his little Jiujiu, he only needed to arrange the requirements, and then someone here would come to accept the materials from the dock. Naturally, he will also be assigned tasks, and if he can't do it, he will have to consider replacing him. Don't talk about what he is a local person, and the people believe in him as an official, and what is more famous. For Liu Zhang, these are all jokes, and it is his own army that really speaks.
nodded: "Very good, in that case, I will send someone to send materials to build the wharf, and you can also send someone to Jiaozhi County to get some rice there, and you can summarize the melons and fruits that are better planted here for me." "What the south likes to eat is nothing more than mango and grapefruit, and Liu Zhang in the north likes to eat watermelon. It's a pity that watermelons still need to be planted slowly, and this thing is still very expensive when it comes from the Western Regions.
Shi Xie was a little confused and said, "What is the use of the rice that the general wants there?" Is there any difference? As for melons and fruits, these are easy to find, but what does the general want these for? "Confused.
Liu Zhang yawned and said, "You don't need to care so much, we're talking about it when we go into the city." Justice made the soldiers open and accepted the city defense. Remember to be careful, and Gong Jin must also leave enough soldiers on the ship. After saying that, Liu Zhang was ready to get off the ship, the soldiers landed ashore one by one, and the mortar team also got off the ship, so it was better to be careful at this time.
It's actually quite desolate, and the roads are full of dirt roads. Luckily, it's not the rainy season yet, otherwise the waterway would have been a headache. You must know that you often walk on muddy roads, but there are messy diseases. However, Liu Zhang already has eucommia glue, and rubber shoes can easily make a lot.
However, there are many coconut trees and banana trees here, and Liu Zhang only glanced at it and found that many people planted banana trees in the distance. This stuff is very simple, as long as you transplant it casually, it is a piece. It won't be long before the results will be available. This is free food, but it is still not large, because of the rainy season and productivity problems, the survival pressure is still quite large, of course, the health problem and mosquito problem are even greater.
Liu Zhang's ship was always stocked with limestone and sulfur. After all, the south is really full of mosquitoes, especially at night. This is almost like a mosquito in the rainforest, and this should be noted in the future. The ability of mosquitoes to transmit diseases is simply outrageous.
You don't have to look around at the houses made of adobe and trees, after all, the rainy place is still relatively better with this kind of wood and tiles. It's a pity that tiles also need a little bit of financial resources, there is no excessive trading here, and there are really not many wealthy people. Along the way, Liu Zhang didn't see any decent houses.
Even the gate of the government is shabby and terrible, and it is not even as good as the houses of small families in Chang'an. But in this kind of place, Liu Zhang doesn't ask for so much. As for the occasional people here, they are also thin, swarthy and even unsightly. However, this is also due to the southern environment, where even though it is not too hot, the sun shines directly all year round......
After turning around, the impression left on Liu Zhang is probably that it is dirty and messy. Of course, there will be no other situation here, after all, Liu Zhang knows that because of the environment, there is no way to lack education here. There is nothing wrong with the saying that the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, of course, it may not be wrong, it can only be said that they believe in the primitive rules, that is, whoever is powerful has the final say.
It's not just that they like it, Liu Zhang also likes it. Skipping the process of reasoning, Liu Zhang can easily convince everyone, and then discipline him in his own way. At that time, no one dared to jump with themselves, and as for their generation, they didn't need to be disciplined, they just needed whoever had a big fist. When there is a certain scale here, and when the next generation of children is exposed to the rules from an early age, they will naturally be able to get used to it. As for their children, then they can already get an education. Within three generations, Liu Zhang can change here.
"Guangxiao, you give them what we wrote before, and if you don't understand something, please explain it. Zijing and Boyan can also listen to it more, and Xingba takes a few people to get some game nearby. "Liu Zhang is much more active when he comes down, and there is really a lot of game in the southern mountains and forests this season.
Liu Zhang and a team of soldiers plan to walk around here, which may be a small fishing village. Because of the proximity to the sea, there is still a lot of food here, of course, more food does not mean that life is good. Where there is no trade, it is destined to be eaten and drunk by the owner, and if there is a tsunami or something, I am afraid that the people in this area will die.
When Shixie comes into contact with this knowledge, I'm afraid it will take several days. After all, what he wrote was in detail, and he still had to learn a little bit to understand. It's shallow on paper, and he still needs to realize it step by step. However, Liu Zhang didn't need to test his talents, he just needed to hand over these things to him. This thing is written in the same way as the manual, if he can't understand it. Liu Zhang can only say that this is by no means a stupid reason, if he does not carry out his request, as long as he checks himself in the next year, then he can go home or hang on the city.
He is definitely not very demanding, even if he is really stupid and stupid, as long as he follows what he writes step by step, then he can also make some achievements. However, there is no shortage of people in this world who are unwilling to change, as long as they live well, where can they care about the life and death of others? Sun Quan seems to have mastered these places, but in fact, whether what he says here is good or not is a different matter. Liu Zhang has seen a lot of this kind of thing......
Sitting on the bamboo building, Liu Zhang felt that it was still good here, and the cool breeze was gusting on the small bamboo building. Unconsciously, he seems to occupy most of the Han Dynasty little by little, but Cao Cao and others are still calculating each other for a little bit of the north. Although the places they occupy, most of them are not rich. But Liu Zhang has little demand for this, as long as there is land, sooner or later he will become rich......
