Chapter Sixty-Six: Very Popular
Under the cheers and expectations of the ordinary people on the shore, the fishing boat slowly approached the wharf, and Wang Kun was still a little delusional when he saw the people who came to welcome him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info [Fengyun Novel Reading] Could it be that this is engaging in bureaucracy, this is really talented, how can someone already start this at the beginning?
But then I thought about it, it wasn't right! No one knows they're back today! Then there is only one explanation, this is the people who sincerely came out to welcome, thinking of this, Wang Kun was inexplicably a little excited!
Today's ship is no different, but after experiencing the Shilongmen attack, when the people saw this ship again, they felt as if they had a reliance in their hearts, and suddenly they were no longer frightened, and there was an inexplicable excitement!
The boat was completely docked to the pier, and the people on the shore began to cheer inexplicably! They don't know why they're cheering or excited! It's just that they can't control their emotions, and when one person starts cheering, everyone cheers too! And the sound is getting louder and louder, like a hero who welcomes the triumph!
Although they still don't know what Wang Kun and his party are going to do, they may have thought in their hearts now that they will follow Wang Kun in the future, and they will follow Wei Feng in the future, even if they change places, it doesn't matter!
Wang Kun heard the cheers below, and his mood was no longer calm! This is the spontaneous cheer of the ordinary people to them! This is an affirmation of himself, Wang Kun just feels that he should say something now!
"Folks! We're back! ā
In response to Wang Kun, there were cheers from the mountains and tsunamis!
"Many people may be wondering why the person in charge you often see has been gone for more than ten days this time! Now I can tell you that we are out to war! ā
There was a sudden silence below, but soon they cheered again, because Wang Kun had told them good news!
"We won! And at the same time we occupy a large territory, which is very close to our hometown, and there is a large area of fertile land. Not only that, but we established the Great Wei General's Mansion there, and we will be the citizens of the Great Wei State in the future! ā
Wang Kun's last words made them fall into a brief silence again, and they couldn't digest the news for a while. Because the news came so suddenly.
However, they didn't fail to accept it, because Lan Fang had been constantly promoting their Lan Fang country before. So after they digested the news, their expressions were obviously different, some excited, some excited, and some fearful.
But most of these fears have just escaped from the country!
After welcoming the arrival of the fleet, and hearing such exciting news, most of the ordinary people will also go back to their own tasks. So after recruiting dock stevedores in Wang Kun, the rest left!
This time, Wang Kun briefly explained the matter of Southern Luzon and left, because there is basically nothing to do in Southern Luzon now.
There are basically no government functions now, because there are few people who have read at all, and the job of Southern Luzon is now very simple, that is, to guard against the counterattack of the Spaniards, as well as the attack of the natives. Because there are these two kinds of people there now, as for the original local Chinese, Wang Kun has already given them a good policy, if they really want to give birth to some moths at that time, then Wang Kun is really welcome!
Moreover, Wang Kun also exiled all the original Spanish officials and military officers to Palawan!
Therefore, Wang Kun left Zhang Lei and Cheng Luo in Southern Luzon, and there was no problem at all. And Zhang Lei still has a difficult task, and now Zhang Lei can be said to have become a craftsman!
This time, Wang Kun returned to Kuching, mainly to build up the government here, including the construction of the county government. There is also the selection of officials, the scope of positions and the training of personnel.
The other is the trial of commercial law, which is currently mainly aimed at gold mining companies. Because now the population of Kuching and Selong Mun together is more than 5,000 people. This is obviously not commensurate with the name of the general's mansion, so Wang Kun plans to release the mining rights of the gold mine and let these gold mining companies help him recruit the population.
Because no one wants to be a worker for the rest of their lives, no matter how successful a businessman is, in the history of China they will always go home and buy land and become a landlord. At that time, more people will plant Wang Kun's land.
As for the faster way to attract immigrants, Wang Kun has already thought about it, but now is not the time!
However, it is still necessary to get the matter at hand now, and this time Wang Kun brought from South Luzon what Borneo lacked the most - pig iron.
Yes, at present, the most lacking thing in the entire West Borneo is iron tools, not only Wang Kun himself lacks iron tools. Even Heshun General Office Company and Lan Fangguo are very short of iron, because there is no iron ore in West Borneo, and Western countries in order to indirectly control West Borneo, so pig iron is listed as a controlled product.
Therefore, the most important task given to Zhang Lei when Wang Kun came was to increase the iron ore production of the original Spaniards.
Wang Kun not only used it for himself, but he also wanted to buy the iron ore somewhere else, and then use it in exchange for the conditions of their local immigrants.
In addition to raw steel and of course cloth from Manila, this is also the most scarce thing in Kuching at the moment, because Kuching has only been established for three months after all, and almost everything is currently traded from other places.
By the time Wang Kun unloaded all the goods brought on the ship, it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Kun and Zhao Shichang also have a few platoon commander-level officers, and they have long been in the office at the dock to deal with the things left in Kuching in the past few days!
Since the congress had decided that Zhao Shichang was the governor of Kuching and was in charge of the important military and political affairs of Kuching and Shilongmen, Wang Kun basically did not interfere this time.
In fact, in terms of importance, although there are gold mines in Shilongmen that continue to produce gold mines and provide financial support for Wei Feng, it is still not as important as the status of Kuching Port, so after listening to Zhao Shichang's opinion, it was decided to establish the Governor's Palace in Kuching.
So in the next few days, Zhao Shichang was slowly getting familiar with the affairs of Shilongmen and Kuching Port, and since Wang Kun had given him this task, Zhao Shichang couldn't make a mistake in this matter.
Although Zhao Shichang only went to elementary school before, it doesn't mean that he is illiterate! Simplified Chinese characters and traditional Chinese characters, basically Zhao Shichang is still difficult, this is easy to understand because he is a mercenary, so it can't be an illiterate person, right?
So later, he re-learned to read and write, because the people he came into contact with were not only from China, but also from the Singapore-Malaysia-Thailand region, so traditional Chinese characters must also be understood.
This is not only himself, but also Wang Kun and Zhang Lei can be proficient in understanding and applying. This is already a basic skill, so there's nothing surprising about it!
As for local management experience, is this a problem for people from later generations?
That's not a problem at all, okay! First manage the local law and order problems, and then solve their immediate problems!
For example, if someone doesn't have seeds this year, help them get seeds. If someone is sick and has no money for treatment, the county government will come forward to help them with a loan, and so on. Anyway, as long as you help them solve the problems in front of them, then your county master will be a good official!
As for Wang Kun, he has more important things to do!
