Chapter 69 Business Network

Not everyone else is as dissatisfied as Xiucai, focusing only on which vacancies are available, the second congress was closed for three days, more than 100 problems were repeatedly scrutinized, and most of them proposed solutions,

In fact, Yang Bo's biggest problem now is a single economic source, a few ships in the sea trade have not come back, even if they come back, they can't earn much silver, the factory has not yet produced on a large scale, and the problem of sales needs to be set up in places along the way, such as Jinmen and Jingshi, and at the same time, the establishment of commercial outlets in several southern provinces is still under discussion, and the newly established Ministry of Commerce is also based on this reason. The rice planted in Jimo has just been harvested, there is food at home, and there is no panic in my heart, at least there is no problem in staying up until the end of this year.

The question of recruiting the displaced people was entrusted to the Department of Education and the Special Forces Battalion, who divided into numerous squads and went deep into North Korea along the Donggang islands.

In addition to resistance, fleeing is another major mode of struggle adopted by the military and civilians in Liaodong. Silver captivity, they fled in large numbers, some fled to North Korea, waiting for the opportunity to return to Mingming.

In May of the sixth year of the Mandate of Heaven alone, there were no less than 20,000 people who fled into Korea, and in July, after the uprising of the soldiers and civilians in Zhenjiang was suppressed by Khan Beyler, more than 30,000 people crossed the river and fled into Korea. ”

There are also many people who fled to the coastal islands and crossed the sea into Shandong, and there are also a large number of fugitives on other islands such as Changlu Island and Shimen Island.

The Tartars came to their senses, and if they didn't kill these Liao people with the spirit of resistance, they would never be able to rule Liaodong with peace of mind, starting from Kaiyuan Tieling, slaughtering all the way, Fuzhou, Gaizhou, Xiuyan, Zhenjiang, Tieshan, hundreds of thousands, millions of Liao people fell under the bloody butcher's knife!

These people who resist the enslavement of foreign races in Liaodong are the soul of this nation, you know, maybe many people are easy to be angry when they have just lost their homes and relatives, and they are angry at the crown, but under the silver power of the butcher's knife, they rise up to resist, and it is not easy to resist for many years, which requires a strong spiritual belief to support it, most of the Liao people are full of anger at the rule of the Later Jin, but under its butcher's knife, they can only be numb and obedient, because they feel that even if they resist, they can only die in vain, meaningless, The surname Suo is broken, and when he obeys the people, he provides him with human and material resources, and he may be able to be promoted to an official and make a fortune. Therefore, it is Yang Bo's most urgent responsibility as a traverser to contain these rebels as much as possible, protect them from life, and preserve some incense inheritance for this nation.

It is expected that a large number of displaced people will arrive in three months, and the peak will be reached in six months, Yang Bo has already sent people to contact Shen Shikui, the chief soldier of the Dongjiang River, in advance, and the resistance to recruiting displaced people on the islands of the Dongjiang River will not be too great, because winter is coming!

Tan Yinghua, the new Guanglu counselor general, first came to Lushun to meet Yang Bo at the beginning of his tenure, and heard that Yang Bo was going to recruit displaced people to open up the wasteland, he promised to move 5,000 islanders to Yang Bo with a wave of his hand, and refused to accept even a grain of grain, although the initial plan was to recruit 20,000 displaced people, but Yang Bo knew that the actual number would be far exceeded, but he had no choice, he could only continue to tighten his belt this year, anyway, he would always be short of silver.

The most headache is the acquisition of high-yield crop seeds, Yang Bo instructed Gao Yuanxiang to find sailors who are familiar with the routes in the Nanyang area, and consulted Bi Fangji and others, and asked about the specific location of Luzon, Sulu, Mayi, Gu Ma Lang, etc., it should be in the Philippines in the later generations, drew a few charts, and selected a church believer to go together, hoping to buy a batch back, the main ones are corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes and other high-yield crops, although there is no chemical fertilizer in this era, high-yield crops will consume a lot of nutrients from the land, and can only be planted one season of famine, But it is much better than planting wheat, and the solution to the livelihood of the Liao people in Lushun is to develop the marine aquaculture industry, plant some cash crops such as tea, mulberry, tobacco, sugarcane and other crops, and vigorously develop family breeding poultry, textiles, raw silk and other agricultural and sideline industries, and the establishment of the Department of Resettlement and Assistance for Displaced Persons is precisely this purpose, as long as those cash crops reach a certain scale and are transported to Manila for sale, they can make hundreds of thousands of profits every year.

The role of the Department of Commerce and Trade is far more than that, Lushun is in ruins, Jimo, Shijiu those military households have some spare money in their hands, the Department of Commerce and Trade will open a variety of commercial outlets in Lushun, shops cover clothing, food, housing, transportation, tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea, seeds and farm tools and even cattle, grain, hotels and teahouses, those military households have the ability to open their own, if they are worried about losing money, they can also invest money in the Department of Commerce and Trade, and enjoy welfare returns every year, the same is true for the Veteran Welfare and Security Division, but the fund-raising of the Security Division is guaranteed by Yang Bo's own credit, All retired veterans are required to pay into the shares, and the rate of return is much higher than that of the Department of Investment and Commerce. Originally, Yang Bo thought that there would be some backlash, but the results of the statistics surprised him, these veterans did not hesitate to invest all their idle funds, and even some people borrowed money everywhere to buy shares, their trust in Yang Bo made the chief of the security department very pressured.

The beaches from Jimo to Andongwei will be used, and a steady stream of illicit salt will be sold to the hinterland of Shandong with the help of the commercial network laid by the Yao family and the Department of Commerce and Trade, and half of the profits from the sale of illicit salt will be used to buy rice grain, and some of them will go into Shijiu and Jimo to stabilize the higher and higher grain prices, when Yang Bo first came to Maojiatun, the price of grain was only one or two two three and one stone, and now it has risen to one or two five five stones, and it is still the kind that is not enough to weigh and mixed with sand, and most of the rice grain will be received by the Grain Reserve Division of Lushun, It will be used as life-saving food for the displaced people in the future.

The heaviest responsibility is always logistics, none of the ten divisions under the jurisdiction of the logistics department are idle, the first to move is the construction department, they want to build the tunbao for the resettlement of the displaced people with the help of the Thunder Brigade, and at the same time the tuntian division of the field, began to prepare the seeds cultivated by the displaced people, farm tools, and the material for cultivating cattle, and the equipment department will now start preparing the quilts and clothes for these displaced people to spend the winter, the salary given by the Maojiatun quilt factory is very low, and most people are reluctant to go, but they can't withstand the overwhelming propaganda of the Han Erjia, what is it to solve problems for adults, What are you living a good life now, but you can't forget your roots, in short, you have organized all the big and small ladies in Maojiatun, and even Yun Niang took a few maids to volunteer for a few days after hearing this, with the housemother taking the lead, 60,000 sets of clothes and 30,000 sets of bedding are estimated to be sewn out before October,

In terms of military affairs, the work of clearing and registering the barren land in Lushun is about to begin, and the construction of the tunpu is also calling people to start planning in pieces, and the candidates for the tun chief are naturally those disabled veterans, these people are disciplined and educated, and no one dares to defy their authority for Yang Bo's instructions, they hold the highest power in the entire tunpu, they can not only organize the training of peasants and soldiers in the tunpu, but also cooperate with the instructor to explain the policy and help Yang Bo firmly control the grassroots, the so-called "dividing the field and land" is not a panacea to solve the problem, It is not the originality of the so-called traverser, the peasant uprisings of the past dynasties are similar to this kind of "equal land, no grain" slogan can be seen everywhere, but there has never been a successful example, this kind of system surname change can not be completed by shouting a few slogans, the equal division of land is for the future capital circulation, the construction of the industrial system to provide a basic guarantee, the equal division of land is also to reconstruct the grassroots construction and the new social system in the way of Yang Bo, there is no large amount of propaganda brainwashing, an efficient organizational structure to guide, The outstanding backbone of the grassroots and the ordinary farmers mingle, the escort of the army, the so-called division of the land is a farce, Yang Bo's choice to farm in Liaodong is also after repeated trade-offs, as long as the Tartars are driven away, here is a blank paper, there is no remnant of the clan, the gentry will come out to obstruct, as long as Yang Bo issues instructions, those grassroots backbones can be thoroughly implemented.

The establishment of the Liaodong battalion is an attempt at military reform, with the successful development of flintlock pistols, the output of firepower has been greatly enhanced, a battalion needs to be both offensive and defensive in the face of the enemy, instead of Yang Bo's previous kind of use of a battalion to cover another battalion, the previous establishment of the Liaodong battalion was two flintlock companies, two pikemen companies and a sword and shield company, after this closed-door meeting, Yang Bo decided to cancel the sword and shield soldiers, changed into three flintlock companies, or mixed from the sword and shield soldiers and mortar guns into a company, the main purpose is to increase the intensity of firearms strikes. In this way, the training of the flintlock company required more strenuous training, and it was necessary to change ammunition and fire without interruption on the move.

It is initially expected that Lushun will expand nearly 100 cantonments, each cantonment will house about 200 to 500 people, all the Thunder brigades will help build after replenishing the soldiers, these cantonments are optimistically estimated that each cantonment can provide one-third of the reserve soldiers, and so the Thunder Brigade will be equipped with flintlock pistols first, all arquebuses will be given priority to the peasant soldiers, in addition to emphasizing discipline and complicated steps, it takes time to train, and the requirements for the peasants and soldiers in other aspects are not high, and soon they will become another powerful force to defend Lushun, by that time, It's time to think about recovering the Golden State.

The task of the intelligence department is not light, almost all the sergeants of the special forces battalion have been dispatched, and the surrounding forces, large and small, have to install personnel, inquire about information, draw maps, and cooperate with the Department of Commerce and Trade to develop spy personnel in some important places such as teahouses, wine shops, post stations, kilns, and other places, and the expenditure of the intelligence department this year alone is nearly 20,000 yuan! Not including the payment of the salaries of internal personnel, Yang Bo gritted his teeth and nodded and agreed, as long as he stayed up until the watch factory was put into large-scale production, he would be able to have more activity at hand at that time.

In fact, the goals to be achieved next year are far more than these, the promulgation of the plan is like a whip, so that everyone moves, Lushun Jimo between the fleet is endless, all departments have begun to arrange itineraries, one after another,

However, at this critical moment, Yan Kunzhi urgently recruited Yang Bo to negotiate, and after coming back, Yang Bo had a dark face, and he was sullen, because after the prisoners from Zong Yuanfang, I don't know when the imperial court suddenly had rumors that the Jimo battalion had outstanding combat strength and should be transferred to Liaoxi to defend the enemy, and there was a letter to the matter, saying that the Jimo camp was less than 3,000 people, and under the repeated attack of more than 10,000 Jiannu, he tried to protect the city. There is no need to pay attention to some gossip, but Yang Bo is still vigilant, it seems that he has to learn from those Guanning military leaders how to be a qualified warlord, Guanning military leaders carry Tartars to self-respect, Zuo Liangyu carries Liukou to self-respect, it seems that Lushun also has to erect an enemy to come out and beat and beat at all times. These predecessors are still living comfortably as warlords, and the trick is nothing more than privatization of the army, not entering Beijing, not listening to tunes and not listening to propaganda, as long as they do not leave the army, they are safe, and the court is helpless.

It's a pity that Yang Bo can't go to Beijing, not only to go to the military department to report on his work, but also to see Chongzhen in the palace, this is a supreme honor for others, it is not the same thing for him, the only reassuring thing is that it is safe to enter Beijing this time.

Just when Yang Bo was upset, Xiucai ran over excitedly: "My lord, is there still a lack of a chief officer in the Lushun Army Academy Division?" ”

Yang Bo looked at Xiucai suspiciously: "What are you doing?" ”

Xiucai was hesitant on his lips, but he scolded angrily in his heart: "Do you still need to ask?" ”

He thought about it for a night before he figured out, since he was not the material to lead the troops, it was better to retreat to the second, it would be good to be a professor, and when the time came, his influence would not be as good as Xiao Mochou's? Chosen and chosen, the private school is all a little kid, and he doesn't understand the artillery academy, this army academy is in his eyes, according to adults, the army academy will force all the commanders above the platoon of the Thunder Brigade to study again, which makes Xiucai moved.

Yang Bo shook his head, this position is not something that ordinary people can sit in, to be honest, even he himself feels that he is not qualified, let alone Xiucai.

"You want to try? Do you know what to teach? Yang Bo rolled his eyes

Xiucai snorted and began to shake his head: "Master, so preaching, teaching, and solving doubts, what is teaching?" What is a teacher? Fan also, teaching people to be known as the Taoist, as the saying goes, the country will prosper, and the teacher will be noble; If you are a noble teacher and a master, the law will exist. The country will decline, and it will be a lowly teacher and a light master; If you are a lowly teacher and a light master, you will be fast; People have quick and bad laws......"

"Stop!"

Yang Bo couldn't bear it: "In this way, you can try it if you want to, but I want to see if you have the ability." ”

Xiucai hurriedly patted his chest: "My lord, I am also a ten-year cold window, the title of the gold list, and my belly full of knowledge......"

"Little Five" Yang Bo ignored Xiucai, turned his head and called Xiao Wudao: "You take Xiucai to the confinement room"

"Confinement?" Xiucai felt a bad feeling in his heart

"I don't care what method you use, but you can make this naughty boy change his mind and devote himself to learning, I will let you be the head of the academy, if not, there is no need to mention this matter again!" Yang Bo said ill-intentionedly.

Xiucai nodded, followed Xiao Wu and walked a few steps back and asked uneasily, "My lord, can you use the ring ruler?" ”

"You can use a kitchen knife...... Yang Bo clasped his hands into a trumpet shape and shouted. (To be continued.) )
