At night, the castle finally fell silent after a noisy day, and everyone fell asleep one after another. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, in a room deep in the castle, it was still brightly lit.

Two huge candles were lit on both sides of the desk, and Ren Siqi was sitting behind the desk, sometimes contemplating, sometimes writing hard.

On the side of the case, Tian Feng (Japanese child Amakusa Kaede) was standing beside the case, planting one after another, already extremely sleepy.

Ren Siqi didn't notice Tian Feng at all, he was full of things at this time.

The fleet returned to Daishan, but it was no longer the Qiyun Commercial House with only a few dozen people on two days, but a behemoth with nine large ships and hundreds of people. Ren Siqi is no longer just the owner of Qiyun Commercial Bank, but the inspection of the Daishan Inspection Department appointed by the imperial court, although he is only a petty official of the nine grades, he actually controls the entire Daishan Island.

As soon as there are many people, things become extremely complicated, so today's entry into the port, that is, nine ships, entering the port and unloading are extremely slow, and many people are at a loss. Fortunately, Sha Fu was experienced, and the old people of the original Qiyun Commercial Bank tried their best to command, so that the big guys could be settled.

As the supreme head of all people, Ren Siqi felt a great responsibility, and when he was in Nagasaki, he desperately recruited people for the war against the Dutch, and the number of people was increased by five or six times, and the corresponding management did not keep up, and only the head of each ship was appointed at that time, and everything was based on defeating the Dutch, and nothing else was taken care of.

Now all the men are more than 500 men, there are crews, village soldiers, recruited Japanese samurai, and dozens of prisoners, and things must be straightened out as soon as possible, so that everyone can find their place.

Ren Siqi took a brush and wrote down the things that must be done one by one on the snow-white paper.

The first is rewards and punishments, the fleet returned from Japan and made huge profits, and every crew member is looking forward to it, hoping to get their reward as soon as possible, and this matter cannot be delayed. In fact, when he returned home, Ren Siqi had already taken all the leaders to do this, and everyone's exploits in the battle were recorded one by one. Now it is time to determine the rewards for those who remain on the island, who did not participate in the trade to Japan, but who have meritorious service in defending the island, and who also need rewards.

The second is the issue of the establishment of the entire system, which now has more than 500 people, nine large boats and dozens of small boats, and must be reorganized. Each of the nine large ships must have a fixed number of personnel, and the length of the ship's pipe belt fire must be determined. The captured Dutch sailing ships such as the "Exocet" and "Princess" needed a larger number of people because they had artillery, and the other seven ships needed fewer crews because they were not suitable for cannons.

In addition, the township soldiers, now that they have become patrol inspectors, the one hundred township soldiers can be included in the establishment of the inspection department, and become the imperial court army, and other superfluous people will also be included in the establishment of the inspection department, Ren Siqi decided to organize five hundred soldiers, and then take advantage of the fact that the world is not chaotic to train strictly as their foundation.

The seventeenth year of Chongzhen is coming soon, and the turmoil in Jiangnan is imminent, and he must expand his strength as soon as possible in order to find his place in this upcoming troubled era.

The third is the development of the island, and now that the number of people has increased, the food issue must be put on the agenda. In a short period of time, it can be solved by purchasing, but as the team expands further, it must have its own food source. Daishan Island is not large, it is more than 100 square kilometers, the central part is mountainous, and the suitable for farming is also in the plains of the coastal zone around the island.

Originally, the population of the island was small, and most of them lived by fishing, and there was very little development of fields. For example, Gaoting, where it is now located, used to have only one small fishing village with more than 100 villagers, and they only cultivated a few hundred acres of land next to the village. It's not that they're lazy, it's that they can only reclaim so much with their productivity.

Now around the castle, there is a plain between the coast and the mountains in the north, and if it can be reclaimed, tens of thousands of acres of fields can be cultivated.

Fourth, expand strength. Now that he is the inspector of the Daishan Inspection Division, he can control only Daishan Island, and there are only more than 2,000 people under his rule. This strength is too weak, and after sorting out one's own internals, it is necessary to start expanding one's strength.

There are thousands of islands in the entire Zhoushan archipelago, and there are hundreds of large ones suitable for human habitation, because they are located overseas, the imperial court can only control Zhoushan Island and some islands close to the mainland, and the islands far away from the mainland do not see the traces of people in the government all year round, and many islands are entrenched with pirates. Ren Siqi decided to take down these islands one by one and wipe out the pirates of the entire Zhoushan Islands. The first is to expand its own territory, and the second is to train troops.

If necessary, Ren Siqi does not even plan to let go of Zhoushan Island, because Huang Binqing of Zhoushan Island will not watch him expand his strength, and there will inevitably be a conflict between the two sides. The area of Zhoushan Island is four times that of Daishan, and the arable land is ten times that of Daishan, if it occupies Zhoushan Island, it is enough to support tens of thousands of troops and tens of thousands of people. In another year or two, the Qing troops will soon move south, and Jiangnan will become a battlefield, and Ren Siqi naturally knows how important it is to have a reliable rear. Based on the entire Zhoushan Islands, the island is isolated from the land with a powerful fleet, so that you can attack the mainland when you enter and defend the island when you retreat.

Ren Siqi's mind thought quickly, and he quickly wrote strong handwriting on the white paper.

A soft sound of "pop" interrupted Ren Siqi's thoughts, and when he looked up, Ren Siqi suddenly laughed, and saw Amakusa Feng leaning over the side of the case and supporting his body, but his head slammed and hit the case.

"Ahh After his head hit the case, Amakusa Kaede woke up suddenly, screamed, covered his mouth with his little hand again, and looked around with a pair of big eyes, and when he saw Ren Siqi looking at him funny, Amakusa Kaede's face turned red all of a sudden.

"I'm sorry, Childe, I accidentally fell asleep." Amakusa Kaede hurriedly got up and stood up, and said apologetically to Ren Siqi.

For this teenage Japanese child who is often shy, Ren Siqi sometimes really can't tell his gender, saying that he is a girl, but he is dressed as a boy, saying that he is a boy, but his movements and voice are very missive of girls. But Ren Siqi was too embarrassed to ask more.

"You go to sleep." Ren Siqi commanded softly.

"No, Childe hasn't rested yet, I'm your scholar, I won't go to sleep." Amakusa Kaede hurriedly shook his head.

"Since you are my scholar, how many words do you remember when I gave you?" Ren Siqi asked. On the way back, Ren Siqi taught Amakusa Kaede a lot of Chinese characters, and I don't know how well he learned it.

"I remember everything, Childe, you can test me." Amakusa Kaede held up his small chest and said proudly.

Ren Siqi smiled suddenly: "Really? Then I'll test you. ”

It turned out that Amakusa Kaede was not lying, and Ren Siqi gave him more than a hundred words when he returned to the flight, and Amakusa Kaede actually remembered them.

This kid is very smart, Ren Siqi looked at Amakusa Feng with sparkling eyes, and looked at Amakusa Maple, Ren Siqi suddenly thought of the issue of education. If a force wants to develop and grow, it must have a large number of talented people. Where does the talent come from? One is to absorb foreign talents, and the other is to cultivate themselves.

Ren Siqi is just a small patrol now, and he is not attractive to scholars at all, so he can only think of cultivating talents by himself. Now there are few learned scholars on the island, and in addition to himself, there are only a few people who are familiar with literature and ink. My people are very busy now, and they don't have the time to teach everyone to read, so they have to think of hiring some readers to come and teach everyone to read.

Ren Siqi, who has the memory of later generations in his mind, knows that an army with culture and faith is an army with combat effectiveness. The soldiers of the great army of later generations did not forget to read and write when they marched, and this can be used as a reference for themselves.

Thinking of this, Ren Siqi suddenly had an idea in his mind, that is, to establish a school on Daishan Island, in terms of literacy, you can hire some readers to come to the island, there are many people like the old Xiucai and Lao Tongsheng in the south of the Yangtze River, and many people will not be able to get famous in their lives, and they will be extremely miserable. As long as you are willing to spend money, there are not too many such readers.

In addition to literacy, all kinds of military knowledge can also be imparted, and the various regulations for which Ren Xingfan and Monroe are responsible have been compiled, which can be used as elementary teaching materials to teach everyone various skills in the queue and sailing, and can train a group of skilled sailors and soldiers in the shortest possible time.

Thinking of this, Ren Siqi opened his mind and wrote lines of handwriting on the paper. (To be continued.) )
