Text Chapter 1170 Treasure Island

sighed at the moment, he didn't know what Zhang Han thought, but Sun Jingting could be sure that Zhang Han was a person who valued love and righteousness, and he never put on a superior posture in his daily interactions, so he didn't have too many thoughts and awareness in this regard...... Now it seems that this quarrel is probably the last.

After all, Zhang Han and his own image is not very good, and people who don't know will regard Zhang Han as a cowardly lord who can't control his subordinates, and he has become an arrogant minister, especially if he really succeeds in the future, it is not a good story to record in the history books, and he should be careful in the future.

Sun Jingting was silent, and everyone knew that it was not appropriate to talk about this topic, and Chang Wei said at the moment: "Brother Xiaozheng has also seen it here, ships, shipyards, schools, garrisons, tuntian, industry and commerce, and now there is one more foreign affairs, and all things in Taiwan are on track, if it weren't for the Dutch, we would be sure to hand over one million dollars to the military division every year in one or two years......"

"That's right." Sun Jingting nodded and said: "Although I just watched the flowers in the morning, and it took a few days to watch and listen to it carefully, the efforts and wisdom of all of you in the Taiwan Marching Division cannot be questioned by anyone, and I am very sure of this." ”

To be able to get such praise from Sun Jingting, all the people in the Taiwan Marching Division present showed joy, and the big man in front of him was only under Zhang Han, and his status was much higher than Chang Wei's, and he praised him, and the hard work of these years was not in vain.

In particular, Chang Wei, who presided over Taiwan's affairs as a foreign relative, worked hard in the wind and rain for several years, but Taiwan only sent back 600,000 yuan once in a few years, and in an instant he had to reach out to the military department, and in the past six months, 600,000 yuan had already returned, and he also asked for a lot of additional materials and personnel, and it was impossible to say that there was no anxiety in his heart...... If Zhang Han is really annoyed, or doubts Chang Wei's ability, and in this situation, Chang Wei is transferred away and replaced by someone else to preside over the overall situation, then Chang Wei is really wrongfully killed. In fact, the pattern of Taiwan has been formed, many things are waiting for the force, there is no Dutch forced over, a million a year is very easy, and the trade with Japan is also a million profits, plus a variety of specialties can be produced in a few years, to Japan and the South Seas countries and Europeans trade, are very profitable, Taiwan is actually a ripe peach, delicious and delicious......

Of course, Sun Jingting also understood this reason, and everyone present understood it...... At that moment, Sun Jingting looked at everyone and asked: "I understand when I hear Fearful say this, even if the Dutch don't fight this battle, we must fight it, right?" ”

"Yes." Li Pingzhi raised his eyebrows and said: "On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly?" If we want to take advantage of the sea trade, we must cut off the tentacles of the Dutch. In the future, if we attack the Spaniards again and take advantage of the Luzon and Nanyang trade routes, according to the calculations of our Department of Industry and Commerce, three or four years later, that is, in the eighth or ninth year of the Apocalypse, Taiwan will be able to gain three million to four million profits a year by relying on the benefits of peace and trade! ”

Sun Jingting was very excited, although he did not appreciate Li Pingzhi's eager attitude, but at least after Li Pingzhi was ordered to preside over the Taiwan Marching Division, Taiwan's industrial and commercial industries have been vigorously developed, not only Hutchison business, but also driven the business along the coast of Fujian, it is said that a considerable number of Fujian businessmen came to trade a while ago, and the casting of firearms is in the management of the military and political department, and has nothing to do with industry and commerce, but a large number of workshops, including the iron factory, are in charge of the industrial and commercial department, from Sun Jingting all the way to see the situation, The management is quite successful, which is enough to show its ability.

At that moment, Sun Jingting said in an appreciative tone: "Ping Zhi has been in the office for less than three years, and he has been promoted to the position of the head of the division of the marching department, which shows his talent and ability." ”

Having said that, everyone also understood that this battle had to be fought, Sun Jingting frowned and said: "When will the mission return, since you have decided to fight, when will you start, what are your plans?" ”

Chang Wei said: "The preliminary plan has been reported to the military department, but we have no way to wait for the review to agree......"

Sun Jingting nodded and expressed his understanding, although he was a military commander and a political official, he had no way to agree on behalf of Qingcheng, that is, it was a broken rule, and it was impossible for Sun Jingting to do this......

However, the Taiwan side can cut first and then play, after all, it will take more than 20 days for Tangma to come back at the earliest, and with such a long time, the Taiwan marching division can wait, and the Dutch are afraid that they will not be able to wait.

Sun Jingting said: "Judging from today's situation, I am afraid that the Dutch people are also going to make a move, and I am a little worried about the safety of our mission......

"I've sent a boat to Hirado." Chang Wei gritted his teeth and said: "We can't wait for the critical moment, I'm afraid that within a few days, we will have to do it." ”

Everyone stood up together, faintly nervous, Chang Wei said to Sun Jingting: "Brother Xiaozheng, please go and see our combat readiness ......"

"Okay, let's go." Sun Jingting was originally a little tired, and the people in the marching department were afraid that they also wanted to tell him to rest for a while, but having said that, seeing that the big war was imminent, how could Sun Jingting go to rest again?

Everyone went out together, and this time the entourage was still strictly limited, and only Sun Jingting's attachΓ© at or above the middle bureau level and above went with him, and there were more than 100 people with him.

Everyone rode horses, there are not many carriages on the Taiwan side, because there are not many places to use, the distance from the sea to the inland is still very close, the core area controlled by Hutchison now is only 100 miles, and the east, west, north and south add up to less than 300 miles, which is about part of Yunlin and Tainan in later generations, as well as Chiayi to Nantou and Kaohsiung.

As for Hualien and other places that need to go straight to the mountains, they are now almost primitive mountains and forests, and there is no development, so of course Hutchison will not go there.

As for the core area of the Dutch is in Dayuan Island, which is also the Tainan area of the later generations, separated from the Chiayi area of the later generations by the side of Bengang, separated by hilly areas such as the Zhuluo Mountains, the coastal plain areas on both sides have been developed or explored, the Dutch have built the city of Geranza after their confidence has increased greatly, and they have searched for natives everywhere, and intend to set up small castles in the area of Zhuluo Mountain, and penetrate into the area of Bengang, both of which are easy to develop offshore areas, only a few hills and mountains, most of them are plain areas, and there are many streams, It is easy to develop and farm, and later Zheng Chenggong set up a government and two counties in Taiwan, most of which were in this area, until a long time before the development of Taipei, at this time the Spaniards in the Taipei chicken coop area of small settlements, there are a small number of Han immigrants and enslaved natives, because the strength is not enough, the Spanish have never been able to develop in Taipei, and the development of Taipei and large-scale immigration are decades later......

Along the way, you will see the tropical scenery of the island, with especially tall trees and lush greenery...... Shanxi side developed early, the grassland is dominated by grass, the woods are relatively rare, Taiwan side riding a horse, the left hand side is the blue endless sea, the right hand side is dozens of miles away is the endless mountains, everywhere is a piece of green, and whether it is trees or crops are growing gratifying...... Sun Jingting asked the people of the Department of Agriculture of the Marching Division, knowing that Taiwan's climate and land are really easy to cultivate, no matter what is planted, it is a bumper harvest, plus the experience of the Department of Agricultural Affairs, there is considerable experience in breeding ridges and fertile fields, raising seedlings to eliminate insect pests, etc., Taiwan's rice fields are bumper harvests every year, the sweet potatoes planted are big and sweet, and the sugarcane is also, after the trial planting, it is much better than the long one in Fujian, and the sorghum is also abundant, of course, corn is also, peppers and tobacco and other things are also easy to plant, but tobacco is not easy to dry, and Taiwan's coastal places are warm and humid. It is not conducive to tobacco drying...... None of this is surprising, sugarcane sugar and sorghum wine plus rice and sweet potatoes were originally Taiwan's specialties, and they were all famous in later generations......

"Treasure Island, what a good place." Sun Jingting from the north of Jin Province is also sincerely emotional, for the people of Liao, Liaodong is also a good place, a large area of plains are alluvial plains, the land is fertile, there are many wild things, whether it is beasts or river fish, or the number of ginseng and various dried fruits in the mountains and forests is very large, the people who come out of Liaodong appreciate Taiwan the most is the climate, it is enough to wear a jacket when it is the coldest time in winter, unlike in Liaodong, when the winter is the coldest can only sit on the fire pit from morning to night, and can not go out when you are idle...... This is also the reason why Liaodong people are addicted to smoking and like to talk and perform, and deduce the famous Northeast culture in later generations.

As for the northern part of Jin, it is very sad, it has been developed for too long, and the mountains are bare...... Later generations don't know the situation of the world, thinking that the air must be fresh and the green mountains and green water must be crossed, don't they know that it is not the case...... The north of Jin is mountainous and most of them are cut down, only the places where the mountains and mountains are not easy for people to reach are still forests, as for the air, there are many mines in the Lingqiu area, the smoke is floating and the clouds cover the sun, and there is a smell of coke in the air...... If you want a little freshness, you can avoid it, which can be called a real poor mountain and bad water.

The scenery on the grassland is good, but before Hutchison entered, he only had to be desolate, grazing and playing is fun, adult months in the wild is not a good thing, eating and sleeping in the open is a common thing, day and night can not rest during the transition, the key is to avoid natural disasters, even if it is not the Xiaoice Age, there will be a catastrophe every few years, the herdsmen can only cross the border wall to rob, if the grassland is really a rich land, how can they raise a group of wolves.

The people who came from the north really liked this place, Han Lao Liu said the most, and said first: "Good place, it's best to transfer me over in the future, and it's best for my family to settle here in the future." ”

Song Yingsheng, the director of the Miscellaneous Research Institute, said with a smile: "Sixth, you still need to wait, but I have to come over first." ”

Due to the need to develop and cast large-caliber heavy artillery in firearms, the technical force is far from sufficient, and many Portuguese were recruited from Macao, and the Portuguese originally set up an artillery factory in Macao, and also specially trained a group of technicians for casting and using cannons...... The salary of these people is very high, just like the situation in the later generations of the Beiyang Naval Division, the officers and soldiers of the Naval Division were paid eight taels a month, and the foreigners were two hundred taels a month...... Of course, Hutchison's style has always been to be able to do it himself and not want to rely on others, if these Portuguese are willing to naturalize is two words, the worst must be according to the example of the Ming Tartar official Hutchison will really trust and reuse, Song Yingsheng here or to strengthen the technical strength of his own side, non-my race will have a different heart, everything is still a good hand to prevent it.
