Chapter 61 The Governor's Palace
Under Wang Kun's order, the soldiers turned around and changed from robbers who started to be barbaric to officers and soldiers who maintained law and order!
Needless to say, the soldiers went out to maintain law and order, and the four of them were discussing future issues in the governor's palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Now Manila has been defeated, and as for the original Spanish officials, they are also locked up! In the future, this will be our territory, so you can also talk about how to operate here in the future! ”
The turf has been laid, and Wang Kun feels that it is time for everyone to have a meeting to discuss!
"Then what else is there to discuss, isn't it okay to directly play the banner of our 'Wei Feng' in the future!"
Zhao Shichang felt that this was a complete trivial matter, and there was nothing to discuss.
"That's what else is there to discuss, you can just claim the king here! I tell you that we Chinese, no matter what we do, we pay attention to the right word, and then we can put up a big banner and all kinds of characters come to us! ”
This is Cheng Luo's point of view.
And then, like last time, they got into a quarrel again.
No one can convince anyone, but they can't quarrel like this anymore, the most important thing is that Zhang Lei came up with a compromise method.
Zhang Lei's method is to ignore the political system or anything now, and first set up the 'Nanyang Great Wei General's Mansion', with Wang Kun as the Great Wei General, and has the highest decision-making power over Wei Feng's internal affairs.
Zhang Lei's proposal was unanimously agreed by everyone as soon as it was said, which is not only the reason why opinions have not been unified after being discussed for a long time, but also because everyone feels that this can be discussed again depending on the situation in the future.
After discussion, Wang Kun was appointed as the general of General Wei Feng's mansion, not only in charge of military and political power, but also the supreme commander of the navy and army.
Zhao Shichang served as the commander of the army, and now he is the position of battalion commander, and he has been continuously promoted as the number of soldiers under his command has increased. In addition, Zhao Shichang will be the Governor of Kuching Port in the future, managing the military and political affairs of Kuching and Selong Mun.
Cheng Luo became the commander of the navy, temporarily managing and training the naval talents under Wei Feng.
Zhang Lei temporarily served as the deputy commander of the navy, assisting Cheng Luo in training naval talents and making up for Cheng Luo's shortcomings in naval warfare theory.
Xie Wu served as the deputy commander of the army, responsible for the training of artillery and the defense of the royal city.
There's no way, nothing is perfect yet, so it's good to stipulate that everyone is responsible for that part for the time being, and as for the military ranks, these will be on the right track in the future.
Then there is the arrangement of civilian personnel, as well as the division of political districts.
First of all, Wei Feng's territory is divided into three major areas, namely Manila, Sarawak and Temasek, and Sarawak is divided into Kuching and Seromun.
Because Manila was named by the Spaniards, but now it is the political center of the Great Wei General's Mansion, so it was naturally changed to South Luzon, and the original Luzon was only changed to North Luzon. Although the change is not perfect, but if you want to avoid everyone being confused, it can only be like this.
Sarawak has also been renamed as Seromun County, which has two towns under its jurisdiction, Kuching and Seromun, and the county government is located in Serangmun. This is mainly due to the fact that there are not so many students for the time being, and people can choose their own officials, and the number of people in these two places is not very large.
However, with the continuous increase in the number of people in these two places, the original area of Sarawak will inevitably be upgraded to a prefecture, and Kuching and Selong Mun will also be upgraded to a prefecture.
So after this name change, Selong Mun County will include Kuching Town and Selong Mun Town, and after the upgrade, Kuching Province will include Kuching County and Selong Mun County.
Temasek is simple, just have an office and a naval supply point now, because this place is not very important now.
In this way, everyone's tasks are clearly assigned, Wang Kun is in Southern Luzon, Zhao Shichang is in Shilongmen County, Cheng Luo and Zhang Lei are in charge of naval training, and Wang Kun is in charge of all the affairs of the entire Wei Feng.
After everyone's tasks are assigned, then it is the distribution of benefits, although the soldiers did not play a big role this time, but the benefits that should be given still have to be given, otherwise there will be something wrong with the uneven distribution of spoils!
After all, they all know about so many things that have been scavenged this time, and if they don't give them a little, they will inevitably complain!
After discussion, it was decided to give each soldier about twenty taels of silver, which was equivalent to thirty silver coins.
Wang Kun recorded all the previous discussions in the notebook in his hand, and in this way, a decisive force in the future was irresponsibly and casually formed!
However, the meeting is not over yet, because this is just starting after all, so there are still many things that need to be discussed and resolved.
The next topic is about how to attract immigrants, and when Zhang Lei heard Wang Kun mention this matter, he raised his own questions.
In fact, it is about the treatment and policy of the local Chinese in Manila.
However, this matter is not a difficult thing for Wang Kun, the Spaniards have always been more conservative about the Chinese power, so the number of Chinese here is not very large, and their treatment is not very good, and after hundreds of years of development, most of these local Chinese have slowly tended to develop in the direction of the local natives!
So the policy for them is that if they are willing to be ruled, then they are Wei Feng's people, if they have other ideas, then I'm sorry!
And then there is about these local Spaniards, this is also the same as treating the local Chinese, if you develop well in the local area, then everything is fine, if you want to give birth to any moths, then it is also sorry!
As for why you should be so nice to the Spaniards, there is no way to make yourself have fewer people, the maintenance of law and order is already slightly insufficient, if these Spaniards are locked up, then a group of people must be assigned to guard them.
Then the discussion on immigration policy begins, and this topic is the easiest to discuss, because as long as the land is given the desire of the Chinese for land, even if it is just rented to them, many people will be willing to come here.
However, the attraction here is probably not very great now, although there are many people in the Manchu Qing Dynasty who not only do not have land, but also cannot even rent land to cultivate, but this is still more attractive than going to sea.
Therefore, at this stage, to attract immigrants from the rule of the Manchus, it is still an ordinary commoner, and then a large profit is promised, that is, everyone can get a certain amount of land for free, generally five acres for each adult and three acres for children.
This is such a large piece of land, which is generally not cultivated in a month by ploughing oxen, so any more is a waste. It is not like the later generations had machines, nor like the country that could be rented to others, because all the commoners who came to Luzon generally had access to land.
The other is to attract Chinese immigrants from Borneo, this is very simple, although Heshun is a gold mining company, but this is a private force after all, and personal interests are not guaranteed, but Wei Feng is now the Great Wei General's Mansion, which is at least a warlord.
So the next thing is the discussion about the law, about the constitution......
Well! This is a relatively big issue, and there are only three people at the moment, so this big issue will not be discussed for the time being. Then the first thing to discuss is, of course, about the management of ordinary people, mainly murder and arson, robbery and theft, abduction and deception, and so on.
Regarding these frequent crimes, it is simple, there is a way to use heavy codes in troubled times, not to mention that there is no time to deal with these trivial matters now. So once convicted, then go straight to some place where no one usually wants to do it.
Then there is the commercial law, Cheng Luo is confused about this, you must know that businessmen had no status in ancient times, and now Wang Kun actually legislates for business alone, which is the world of Chinese commerce!
Article 1 of the Commercial Law stipulates that business is an indispensable act of society, so the government and official forces should ensure the normal business behavior of businessmen, and in return businessmen must also pay taxes according to law.
So this groundbreaking legislation in Chinese history for an industry came out in this way.
