Chapter III: Great Development
Chapter 3 Great Development
It took almost a year for the eldest grandson to wait for the will, but it was two letters. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The first one is about fiefdoms. Changsun Tang's title remains unchanged, it is still Xinfeng Hou, and the Hou Mansion is still Changsun Tang's industry, and this laboratory and library are also nominally Changsun Tang's industry, but the fief has been canceled completely. Fiefdoms were to be replaced by land on the Big Island and nearby islands at a ratio of 1:200.
In this way, Changsun Tang theoretically owns about 200,000 acres of land here. It is estimated to be more than 100 square kilometers. If the eldest grandson is willing, it is completely enough to get a small island.
However, Changsun Tang would definitely not use it like this.
Not far from Jinshan, the eldest grandson circled about 1,000 acres of land to settle the matter. Here I plan to grow some food crops, which are rice to put it bluntly. If Jinshan wants to develop, the first step is to support itself. In the vast sea, at present, transporting grain is a very unworthy matter. This kind of seed and the farmer brought it with me.
The other is technically a letter from the emperor, not a will. Even the letter was written in the name of Li Tai. The content of the letter involves the death of Empress Changsun.
For Empress Changsun, Changsun Tang's mood is extremely complicated. To be able to occupy a place among the virtuous queens of the past dynasties, the ability of the eldest grandson queen is naturally there, plus she is the aunt of the eldest grandson, these things make the eldest grandson have mixed tastes.
However, in view of the parting things in later generations, the eldest grandson did not take this matter to heart.
The best way to remember the deceased is to try not to leave regrets during his lifetime, rather than crying until he is gone. This is both respect for the deceased and respect for the living.
Along with the fleet came Wang Zixin and Xiao Zhiqing. Fu Bo and Aunt Zhang said that they didn't want to come to the sea, as the saying goes, their homeland is hard to leave. Zhang Zhong got married when he returned home, and he was the daughter of a small family that Aunt Zhang gave to Zhang Luo. Zhang Zhong didn't bring it over, she needed to stay in Chang'an to take care of Fubo. This made the eldest grandson a little unhappy.
Generally speaking, if you don't want to go, you can just throw a lot of money out, but nominally speaking, no matter how much money is given to Zhang Zhong, it is also Changsun Tang's, and this family of three basically doesn't spend any money.
After sighing, it is natural to continue to do something.
There's so much you can do in two years. In the vibrant place of the Big Island, a group of vibrant people also started the difficult work of starting a business.
Although he had a similar experience, Changsun Tang felt that it was much more difficult to build the city this time, and the main reason was the lack of manpower. At any time in ancient times, in any country, the first factor in measuring the strength of a country was population, and it was the kind that did not care about quality but quantity.
Nobody, of course, can't do anything. As for immigration, don't even mention it.
In the early days of the Tang Dynasty, the population was far from saturated, as long as there was a stutter, there was nothing that could not go on, and I was afraid that people would leave their hometowns. And with the idea of inheritance, it is almost impossible for this long house of each family to come out.
Therefore, although Changsun Tang issued several immigration notices through the government, and the conditions given were quite generous, he rarely took the initiative to come.
So the eldest grandson had no choice but to write a book through Yao Lian. Whoever commits a crime and is willing to go to the Big Island is considered to be in prison. Of course, serious criminal cases are not considered.
In the past three years, the number of people who have been able to come here has just reached 10,000.
Therefore, the first order issued by the eldest grandson was to have more children and cut down more trees. It's just that it's also a very embarrassing order, because the sex ratio here is so out of balance that some sailors have ideas when they get off the boat and see the.
So the few maids brought by Wang Zixin also got married early.
After three years of hard work, the results are also very remarkable.
A series of volcanic islands have been found in the southwest of the Big Island, where volcanic ash is the best material for burning cement, and the fertile volcanic ash provides enough food for the people here.
The island is already largely self-sufficient.
This is just the first step forward.
The first part of the wall was barely built, with local materials of masonry and cement. The water supply and drainage are also considered to be done. The rudiments of the city have been largely established. This is already equivalent to the location of a larger state city in the Central Plains.
The spice trade has also gradually formed a fixed pattern. Picking, drying and transportation also have certain rules, which is also the most important economic source of Jinshan at present.
Ships had been sent out, but had not yet returned, laden with spices, silk and porcelain, to explore the Middle East.
Everything is on track.
"Husband, do you think it's better for our child to be a boy or a girl?" Wang Zixin asked, holding her chin.
The eldest grandson Yu was already asleep, and Xiao Zhiqing kept pressing the pu fan, constantly chasing mosquitoes.
The eldest grandson was lying in a rocking chair, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he could see the entire Milky Way stretching across the boundless sky. said: "Good girl, it would be better to have a girl as beautiful as you." ā
"But I want it to be a boy, how about we have a boy?" Wang Zixin asked.
"Okay, if it's a boy, I'll snatch Wu Yuanqing's daughter over and be our daughter-in-law, what do you think?" The eldest grandson said with a smile.
"It's not good, Wu Yuanqing is not a good thing, his daughter and our son don't dare to marry, and his daughter is older than our son." Wang Zixin was unwilling.
"Okay, don't marry, don't marry......"
The chattering voices of the three of them became smaller and smaller, and gradually, the snoring of the eldest grandson gradually increased, but no one woke up.
At this time, Wu Yuanqing, who was "not a good thing" in Wang Zixin's mouth, was thinking about Oshima Jinshan and rushed over.
During the day, it rained heavily, and in order to prevent accidents, all the boats dropped their sails, and there was no time, so they had to hurry at night. Fortunately, the rain in the South China Sea came and went quickly.
At this time, the sky was full of stars, and according to the compass and sextant jointly invented by Li Chunfeng and Changsun Tang, sailing at night was not a big deal. The captains of these boats are also very familiar with sailing at night.
"Ahh It must be the eldest grandson who said bad things about me behind my back, I didn't run around all day and night for him, but this kid hurt me all day long, and it was too uninteresting, and when I arrived, I had to talk about him well, the eldest grandson thought to ......
The Yellow Emperor sailed through the gently undulating waves, and the north wind raised the ship's speed to an even faster speed. (To be continued.) )
