Chapter 720: Changes in the Chamber of Commerce
The people behind were not so good, and they stood in a black position, but they still couldn't stop their enthusiasm, and the sound of an excited discussion made the entire clearing buzz. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The show was finally staged, from Qu Yuan's loyalty to the rape of other courtiers, there was an angry condemnation from the audience, although the actor did not perform well, but it successfully resonated with the audience. In the end, when it came to Qu Yuan's hatred of throwing himself into the river, there was a sobbing sound in the audience. Next, the actors performed fishermen salvaging Qu Yuan's body, etc., and finally evolved into the Dragon Boat Festival, and soon the whole play came to an end.
The whole scene was silent for half a minute, and many people who watched the play for the first time in their lives were digesting the impact of the play on them. At this time, someone in the crowd raised their arms and shouted.
"Don't be a traitor! Be loyal to Miyakojima, loyal to the owner! Don't be a traitor! Be loyal to Miyakojima, loyal to the owner! ”
Immediately, countless people responded, and the changes in their lives since Li Yang became the master were real, and soon everyone spontaneously joined in shouting this slogan. At this time, although Li Yang was stunned in his heart, he was actually secretly refreshed, the conscience of heaven and earth, he really didn't arrange anyone to be the first to lead the incitement, it seems that the people are indeed grateful from the bottom of their hearts.
On this day, no one can be calm, and the people of Dakang are proud of themselves as a Dakang people who can commemorate their ancestors in a dignified manner. The natives are excited that they can spend such a fantastic festival, and they are also impressed by the long inheritance of the Central Plains culture, and many lower-class people are even more glad that Li Yang came to be the owner of this Miyako Island, otherwise they will have to be frogs at the bottom of the well for a lifetime, and then they will have to stuff their children into whatever way they want to admit students in the future, know more about the outside world, and know more about the culture of the Central Plains.
Li Yang is quite satisfied with the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival, the cost is huge, the harvest is incomparably huge, with this cohesion, the follow-up plan has received more powerful support.
After the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival, Miyako Island entered a more rapid stage of development, three docks started at the same time, of course, it is still to build wooden warships, after all, steel warships need a lot of steel, every two iron on this small island is very precious, and wooden warships have artillery, which is completely sufficient, after all, there will be no large-scale naval duel, this kind of ship is also fast, almost more than a month can produce one.
The smelter has already entered a stable production period, and the speed of providing more than 20 pairs of armor and corresponding weapons per day is also enough to meet Li Yang's requirements, but if the end of the war is opened, the consumption of weapons is not ordinarily large, and the production capacity needs to continue to expand.
The government-run sugar factory has been stopped for a while because of the problem of raw materials, but the workers are not idle, they are all transferred to the textile factory to help with production, and now even the people of heaven know, go to Dakang to buy porcelain and silk, you have to bring cotton, you can change cotton into cloth halfway, and then bring it to Dakang, although you can't make much, the road expenses can come out.
Machinery factory and Su Donglai's bicycle factory has also entered a period of stable production, if there is no major technological breakthrough in the near future, it is not planned to blindly expand production for the time being, but I believe that with the gradual popularization of education, new inventions and creations will only increase.
Just when Li Yang was hesitant, the Chamber of Commerce brought bad news: "The treasure merchant clearly rejected Miyakojima's request to garrison troops. ”
Li Yang had already made a plan and was ready to use the territory of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce as his first springboard to Ryukyu Island, and there was absolutely no room for problems.
"Didn't we discuss it before, why did we change the hexagram again?" Li Yang was quite puzzled.
"It is said that there has been a change of opinion within the Chamber of Commerce, and some people think that their current status and money are completely sufficient, and there is no need to start an unprovoked war."
"It's ridiculous, Dakang people taking root and sprouting overseas is a matter of retreating if they don't advance, if they can't keep expanding, they will be eaten sooner or later." Li Yang took the case, "You go and see if the young owner of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is in Miyako Island and call him." ”
"Are you going to use him as a hostage?"
"Excuse me!"
Soon, the young proprietor of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, that is, Lin Li, who advocated advancing and retreating together with Miyakojima, hurriedly entered the meeting hall with the guards.
"Lin Shaodong's family, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and my Miyakojima are both of the same roots, and now they are trying to conspire together, why are they suddenly so short-sighted?"
"Island owner, to tell you the truth, since you traveled to Ryukyu Island to contact us, there have been different voices in the Chamber of Commerce, but I am a firm supporter of the great cause of complicity with Miyakojima, and the quarrel has become increasingly fierce in the past few days, no, I have always been in Miyakojima to avoid the limelight." Lin Li said with a wry smile.
Li Yang pondered for a while: "So, who has the most fierce objections?" ”
"This ...... It's my father......" Lin Li said after a speech.
"Hehe, the old man is old, and he should be in good age, and he shouldn't fight and kill with young people, call him, I think it's time for you to make your own contributions." Li Yang said with a smile.
Lin Li understood the meaning of the words, his father's safety must be no problem, but power, it seems that Li Yang has made it clear that the Chinese Chamber of Commerce should change its helmsman.
"Before the fifteenth of this month, we agreed to go back to the Chamber of Commerce together on a date, the territory of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is only twenty miles, and the population is only thousands, if it develops freely, how can it last for a long time, and if it is fattened, it will be killed by the surrounding forces to eat meat." Li Yang shook his head, the Chinese's thinking is still too conservative, more than enough to keep and not enough to develop, but also due to cultural factors.
The intensive preparations began, and Li Yang, who had planned to leave the slave legion for training for a period of time, was overwhelmed by Wang Hu, who had a strong desire to fight, so he could only agree that this time it would be regarded as a chance for the slave legion to train.
The more than 1,000 people of the First Army Corps were personally led by Li Wen to garrison Yaeyama Castle to defend the north, but they did not dare to move lightly, and finally transferred two more battalions of the Second Army Corps stationed on Miyako Island, although the defense of Miyako Island was slightly weak, but now the workers have also organized a militia group, and occasionally trained, there is no shortage of weapons or anything, which can play a role in auxiliary defense.
In this way, there is also a combat power of nearly 1,070, and it is not difficult to win a mere Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
It's just that the deployment of troops is still a big problem, and there is no basis for building super ships, so we can only speed up the speed of building small ships and win by numbers.
This time it is far from the water can not quench the thirst of the near, waiting for the three small boats that are still lying in the dock, even if they are built and the previous 30-ton warship, the transportation capacity is still far from enough, fortunately, as a harbor city, Miyako Island has no shortage of fishing boats, and the distance from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is only a strait, this time it is planned to rely on a huge fleet of fishing boats for transportation.
