Chapter 748: A New Life
But when the seeds and farming tools were distributed everywhere, and Miyakojima sent people to guide them, they realized how backward and primitive their slash-and-burn farming was, and the real rulers of these tribes couldn't help but be obsessed with the advanced technology that had been passed on.

In the past, each person used a stone hoe and a wooden shovel to tending to a piece of land the size of a palm, but now even the hoeing uses advanced iron tools, and the cultivation efficiency has been greatly improved. The wasteland reclamation decree promulgated by Li Yang has made it clear that whoever can open up the wasteland will be the owner of the land who can cultivate it for two consecutive years, as evidenced by the title deed of Li Yang's seal.
In the past, the natives didn't care about the land, and if there was more land, it was better to go hunting. But since the rumor spread that Miyakojima's seeds were planted in the cultivated fields and that the whole family could eat them for a year after half a year's work, everyone's enthusiasm was stimulated, after all, when there was a rainy day or a time when the hunting was gone, a house of people would have to starve.
Everyone has seen the seeds that have been sent, the grains are full, the mouth is full of sweetness, and the sweet potatoes are also crisp and sweet, if you can eat these things every day, you only need to spend half of the time to cultivate, it is definitely worth it. Soon, the farm tools and seeds were all distributed, and it was also prepared to take back some of the meaning by the end of the year, depending on the harvest.
The whole Ryukyu Nanshan people were determined, and everyone enthusiastically rummaged through the fields, and the thought that in four months, they would not have to go out early every day to hunt and collect wild fruits, and everyone's eyes were full of eagerness.
The original slaves of the Ryukyu Nanshan Kingdom are also managed according to the slavery system, as long as you are not a vicious person, and you will leave the country to become a Miyako citizen after two or three years of hard work, and the biggest loss of interests is naturally the original Ryukyu Nanshan royal family, most of the original mines and slaves in the mines belong to the royal family, but the arms can't twist the thighs, and they have no choice but to accept this system.
Li Yang also felt that it was not a matter for these royal family elders to stay here, especially the former princess Princess Nanshan, who saw Li Yang every day with a resentful look, you can't afford to hurt a mature woman who is less than thirty Fanghua, Li Yang still hides as far away as possible, lest if something happens, at least at that time, it was a very embarrassing thing to export.
This successful attack on the Ryukyu Nanshan country contributed the most to the army naturally to focus on rewards, Li Yang in one breath except for the slaves who joined this time, all the slave legion soldiers changed to Miyako people, although the establishment is still in the slave legion, but from the armor to the treatment is completely the same as the Miyako soldiers.
This seizure was quite rich, and after being counted, the gold in the cellar alone exceeded 1,000 taels, but the amount of silver was still less, and it was estimated that because silver could also be used as a daily currency, some of it was taken out for expenses, and the silver was only harvested more than 1,000 taels. Coupled with other copper coins and utensils and the income from the seizure, he made a lot of money, and these were converted into nearly 10,000 taels of silver, and there were large and small jewels and jade, which could not be estimated, Li Yang felt that it looked good in the room, and he dressed up the room like an upstart pretending to be elegant.
However, Li Yang is not a miser, money is meant to circulate, the brothers have suffered so much from birth to death, and those odd and fractional rewards have all been distributed to the heads of each soldier, including the veterans who are guarding Nanshan City, each of them has received a considerable amount of money, and those who have sacrificed honorably have not lost, at least your family doesn't have to worry about how much you have to worry about, at this time, Li Yang's factories and workshops are all fragrant and sweet.
The reorganized army of the Ryukyu Nanshan Kingdom is also not greedy, after all, there are still many opportunities in the future, but all the soldiers who have been incorporated have to be reorganized, even the troops in the tile port, all the old and weak have been dismantled, and no one will starve to death when they go home to farm, and all the young and no diseases will stay, Li Yang will not be recruited here, and all the soldiers must be professional.
If it is a thousand troops that can be crushed by a hundred soldiers, it is better to raise dozens of elites than to raise a thousand mouths, and the extra people can also go to farm work.
After careful selection, a team of about 700 people was finally selected, and a third army corps was directly formed, and Li Yang sent Yan Kuan, who had been with him for a long time, to this corps as the commander, and by the way, Yan Kuan, Zhou Daibing, and Luo Zhonghua opened a simplified version of the officer training camp, which was mainly aimed at the officers at the grassroots level, and firmly instilled the concept of strict discipline and basic combat attention into their minds.
Tossed up and down, but in more than half a month, the entire Ryukyu territory has changed, although there are still so many people who do things like that, but they always feel that they have mixed something in, and everything is different.
Li Yang, who had straightened out the affairs in the territory, was in a good mood, and at this time he was talking with Princess Nanshan in the backyard of the palace: "Your child is not young anymore, let's put it bluntly, I don't think it is suitable for you to stay in Dujiang City any longer, maybe you can go to Miyako Island, where I will give you the corresponding status, and Ula can also receive the education of Central Plains culture, I think it will be good for him." ”
"Is that so? Can't even orphans and widows let go of those who have lost their country? Princess Nanshan had a crying voice in her voice, today she wore a light gauze robe, and a deep furrow was exposed on her chest after bowing her body slightly in prayer.
"Well, you're too worried, I think Ula is a smart child, and he will be able to use it in the future, so I have to cultivate it well, don't worry, I'm not interested in a small island in the Ryukyus." Li Yang took a few steps back slightly, and this woman exuded a deadly temptation.
Li Yang is not talking big, the small island of Ryukyu is really not in his eyes, but the premise is to see how this child develops in the future, if he is not close to him, will he raise a tiger for trouble. After finalizing the date for their departure, Li Yang hurriedly left the backyard with more important things to do.
Now there is still time, but I am not in a hurry to fight for life and death with Zhongshan Kingdom, the slave legion has been expanded to 2,000 people, and the newly recruited three legions, and the second legion after replenishing the manpower all need to be trained. Li Wen of the First Army was also screaming on the Ryukyu Islands, wanting to come to the Ryukyu Islands to show his skills. These require continued training and run-in.
What kind of regime will keep the territory stable for a long time? It must be a regime that cares about the common people, where the cultivators have their fields and the homeowners have their houses.
Although there are few fields, there is a lot of land, and all the seeds of farm tools have been distributed, encouraging everyone to reclaim, and a piece of land will spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and the next thing is to slightly improve the livelihood problems in the territory.
With the implementation of several practical things one by one, Li Yang's prestige began to rise in the Ryukyu territory, and these natives were actually not very demanding, and they felt that Li Yang had indeed brought them a new life after becoming king.
