From the time Cho Hyo-seok arrived on Ryukyu Island and threw out the words of forming a six-ministry and a government, these followers of Cho Hyo-seok were looking forward to being appointed as official court officials. Even if he is not an official recognized by the imperial court, he is more glamorous than he is now serving as an administrator.

When they heard that Zhao Xiaoxi intended to build a new city here, they understood that this master's ambition was really greater than they imagined. Building a city overseas means truly incorporating this place into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

Even if it is an overseas desert island, the emergence of a city will definitely bring greater popularity and commercial trade to this desert island. As long as the people in the interior know that there is a city built by the Great Song people overseas, they must be willing to settle here.

With the position of the first director of the Ministry of Works, Jiang Dashi, who was in charge of the town's infrastructure management, was taken. The people present and involved in the deliberations were more convinced. After all, Jiang Dashi's ability and merits are indeed suitable for this position.

After announcing the plan to build a new city, Zhao Xiaoxi continued: "In the past few days, this king has walked through all the immigrant villages below. This king feels that the resettlement here can be temporarily delayed.

It can be seen from the fields cultivated by these immigrants that the fields that can be cultivated in this place are basically all reclaimed. If the migrants are resettled, they will need to be resettled farther into the mountains.

Although no indigenous people have been found here. But this king thinks that the number of immigrants here should be controlled within 100,000 as much as possible. The amount of reclaimed fields should be controlled within 500,000 mu as much as possible.

If there are too many people, things will be complicated, and we need to take care of the food, drink, and Lazar of immigrants. But here we have built a new city, and this king does not want to see any chaos happen. Therefore, the number of 100,000 people is just right. ”

This is not Zhao Xiaoxi's nonsense, he really thinks. With the constant influx of new immigrants. Those migrants who live in remote mountains will find it difficult for them to stay in the mountains without the protection of military guards.

Even if there is no invasion by the natives, there are many poisonous snakes and beasts in this mountain. In several new villages, there have also been many attacks by poisonous snakes and wild beasts. The main thing is that Cho Hyo-seok feels that too many people destroy the environment too quickly.

Cho Hyo-seok, who has the vision of the previous world. I know very well the meaning of the saying that there is strength in numbers. For the 100,000 people who have migrated here, if they are given one to two years, the nearby jungle that looks dense will be cut down.

In these years, the common people used firewood to cook vegetables. This kind of endless deforestation will also cause great damage to the ecology here. So, pause the expansion. It is very necessary.

The most important thing is that Zhao Xiaoxi feels that a city of 100,000 people is more than the population of some inland cities. What he wants to do now is to develop Liuli Island and other places suitable for immigrants to live.

In short, he hopes to see a few on this island in a few years. Or even dozens of cities where 100,000 people live. In this way, the island will appear to be thriving.

With a constant influx of population. Naturally, it will drive the trade of various countries along the border. And here, it will become Zhao Xiaoxi, a transit point for trade and commerce in various countries, and expand his influence by constantly searching for wealth.

In the face of Zhao Xiaoxi's opinion, everyone nodded quickly. Immigration is also not an easy thing for them. These nearly 100,000 people. It was also they who formed the base and were fortunately brought to the island from all over the country like abductions.

Fortunately, the first batch of new immigrants have seen the benefits of immigrating here. With these model villages, the new immigrants who were relocated. will be so honest and willing to stay on this kind of desert island and work for the rest of life.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Zhao Xiaoxi said again: "In order to standardize the management of immigration, in the future, the immigration management of Xinnancheng will be supervised by the Ministry of Households." The head of the household department is in charge of Yan Lu, and the rest of the officials in the household department are appointed by the ministry.

In the future, the household department will manage the clothing, food, housing and transportation of immigrants in all aspects. Another important point is to conduct a census of immigrants and register them to prevent unknown people from mixing in and causing sabotage.

Secondly, there is another more urgent issue, that is, to count the number of acres of land reclaimed by immigrants. At the current rate of reclamation of immigrants, it is good to set a limit. Don't over-cultivate the field without being able to plant it.

Next, in addition to registering the immigrants, the household department also needs to register their acres. The king does not care about the fields that have been cultivated before. However, it is best to control the acres of land per person in each household within five acres.

This feng shui treasure land, their children and grandchildren will need to live here in the future. Therefore, moderate development is necessary. If the fields are over-cultivated, deforestation can lead to unexpected disasters. Pay attention to this matter! ”

Listening to Zhao Xiaoxi's words that were a little too advanced, Yan Lu quickly said: "Lord Wang, each person is limited to five acres of land, and I believe the people will accept it." Wouldn't cultivating more land increase the island's grain production? Why can't we cultivate more? ”

Zhao Xiaoxi quickly explained: "Yan is in charge, this is not bad. But do you find that in some of the villages of new immigrants. The mountain woodlands where I used to live are now bare, and in many places there is not even grass.

Don't underestimate this problem, you have lived here for so long, you should know that the biggest risk in this place is hurricanes in summer and autumn. If their children and grandchildren want to survive here, this deforestation needs to be curtailed.

If you don't converge, you won't see any trees on the mountain or clear water in the river that day, do you think people can still live in such a place? Therefore, after the household department, it is necessary to explain these principles to the immigrants more.

On the other hand, the excavation of channels in the resettlement village is very chaotic at present. In the event of a large flood in the future, the situation is very dangerous. To this end, the Ministry of Household will work with the Ministry of Industry next, and it is best to make some planning. Do you understand? ”

Ryukyu Island is a place where typhoons are frequent, and Cho Hyo-seok still knows a little. Although the area they chose was not much affected by the typhoon. But it is also very dangerous to really encounter a major typhoon.

Those immigrants have also experienced the horror of typhoons, but most of them feel that this typhoon, which they call hurricanes, comes and goes quickly. It doesn't seem to have made much of a difference, but it's a safe place to live.

If they dig up canals and forests here, it will cause ecological damage in the future. Once a typhoon sweeps through this place one day in the future, then these immigrants will truly understand how pitiful the typhoon is.

With Zhao Xiaoxi's explanation, Yan Lu thought about it, and it seemed that it was really like this. As a person living in the north, he also knows that if there are no trees in the mountains, there will be no water in the river. If the water is gone, the livelihoods of the migrants will be gone.

Even when they arrived, there were forests everywhere except for some wilderness plains. But now, where immigrants live, the speed of those forests is rapidly decreasing.

If one day the forest here is cut down, what Zhao Hyo-seok is worried about may really happen. This is undoubtedly not a good thing for these people who will need to live here for the rest of their lives in the future.

Writing down Zhao Xiaoxi's strict law, there is no big surprise for him to serve as the head of the household department. has been by Zhao Xiaoxi's side for a long time, and he knows very well that Zhao Xiaoxi is a prince who speaks with ability.

After arranging the affairs of the household department, Zhao Xiaoxi said again: "After talking about the affairs of the household department, the next thing is the affairs of the military department." For the time being, Li Yuncong is in charge of the head of the military department. And what the military department has to do is our top priority.

For the sake of orderly management, Yun Cong, you will call all your subordinates together after you go down. Classify them, and those who don't want to be officers and soldiers will be arranged to go to other islands in the future and continue to be pirates.

If you want to be an officer and soldier, you will officially organize the New South City Navy after the reorganization. The commander of the navy is also up to you. The training and management of the navy will be even stricter than it is now. Because, in the future, you will represent the navy of the Great Song Dynasty.

In addition, some people in the team who are unwilling to run to the sea are eliminated. Next, they will enter the Criminal Department to serve as a guard unit like a fast catcher. And these people will only be responsible for the security and defense of the islands in the future, and will not participate in the affairs of the navy.

In short, tell all the brothers when you go down. When you become a navy, you will have a bright future in the future, but if you want to get ahead, you must undergo stricter management and training. If you can't stand it, you can continue to go to other bases to be pirates.

The other brothers, who are not suitable to continue running boats, will be used as fast catchers and yacha on the island in the future, responsible for patrolling the island and dealing with some civil disputes. In a word, let the brothers not have to worry about having no food to eat or pay. ”

With a pirate team of nearly 6,000 people, in Zhao Xiaoxi's opinion, the number of the first navy he formed should be kept within 3,000. This means that half of the pirates will be eliminated.

They can continue to live the life of pirates, but that freedom of life is risky. If you don't want to take any more risks, you don't want to be as lucky as a regular army. You can go ashore and act as the officers and soldiers of the city government to catch fast.

At least Zhao Xiaoxi knows that among these pirates, there are still many bad pirates who need to be eliminated. These pirates must be purged from the navy. He hoped that the navy to be formed in the future would truly become an officer army.

If it is directly purged, it will inevitably make many people in this pirate team feel cold. For this reason, giving them three choices undoubtedly shows that Zhao Xiaoxi still cares about the future of these pirates.

As long as they are willing to do things for themselves, they will not worry about living in the future. This arrangement is undoubtedly a very fortunate thing for some elderly pirates.

When the new southern city was built, as the city's catchers and yacha, they could also get the salary from the city government's yamen. If you're lucky, you may be able to start a family and live a life with your wife and children on the hot kang after you go ashore! Isn't that what they want? (To be continued......)
