After Governor Yang left Seoul, he first went to Jeju Island to declare his sovereignty, and the accompanying Korean officials read out Li Xi's will, even if the handover procedures were completed, as for the original governors, county orders and other things remain unchanged, how to manage and how to manage, Yang boss has not yet had time to toss them, only 500 soldiers can build a small military base here, and expand the dock in Seogwipo, not to mention docking the Marauder, at least it must be able to dock those destroyers.

At this time, Jeju Island was so poor that it almost made people cry, it was really a night without closing the house, every family was the same, and there was a fart to steal, especially those poor fisherwomen, the family relied on them to risk death underwater to catch octopus and other things to feed, maybe one day they would feed the sharks themselves, which was sad to see.

"Why don't they grow food to eat?" One of the two newly acquired little Loli asked very innocently, in fact, at this time, the stick upper class spoke Chinese very well, and if they couldn't speak Chinese, it was a sign of inferiority, and they grew up in a small palace, so they were naturally very proficient.

"Back to the two girls, there are many mountains on the island, and the grain production is very low, so they can only buy grain if they catch fish and sell them for money." The white-bearded pastor next to him said with a smile.

"Turning around and letting the landing ship send a boatload of rice is considered a reward for this gentleman!" Yang Feng waved his hand very boldly and said.

Sister Caiyi glanced at him speechlessly, and listened to the little Lori sisters and Zhou Mu stupidly, especially after understanding that the landing ship was those behemoths on the sea, Zhou Mu was so moved that he ran out of the city directly to attract nearby islanders, and the black pressure gave Yang Feng a kneeling.

After showing the generosity of the new master, Boss Yang took the fleet south to Fuzhou under the admiring eyes of Little Lori, as the new governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, he had to fulfill his duties, and Cixi did not play any tricks in this matter. First, the gap in the Beijing city wall that has not been repaired has always reminded her to be calm, and secondly, she has a delicate relationship with Li Hongzhang recently, and she doesn't dare to cause more trouble, anyway, it is thousands of miles away, let those rebellious ministers and thieves be arrogant for a few days!

Leaving behind the Marauder and the landing ships, the Nautilus, escorted by eight destroyers, sailed into the mouth of the Minjiang River in only two days, and sailed straight to the shallow Fuzhou wharf under the watchful eye of the foreign merchant ships in Mawei Harbor. Looking at Xue Fucheng on the shore and the few officials behind him, Boss Yang couldn't help but be stunned. Although he didn't care about the pomp, but when he arrived as a dignified governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, there were dozens of people in total to greet him, and most of them were foreigners, which was too funny.

The merchant got off the ship with a puzzled face, and first casually said a few polite words to the envoys and merchants of various countries who came to pat him on the back. Then he got into his car directly with Xue Fucheng, and immediately asked very dissatisfied after entering: "Where have all the officials in this place gone, don't tell me that they are all busy with official business, and the officials of our court are not so conscientious."

"It's all gone!" Xue Fucheng said with a smile.

"What?" Boss Yang's eyes almost fell to the ground.

They did run away. You must know that now that Boss Yang has become the current Dong Zhuo, which loyal minister and righteous man is disdainful of being with him? Moreover, Bao Xing, who cut more than half of the braids of officials in Taiwan, has also been exposed by righteous people at this time, so he can't stay and serve this kind of thing without a king and a father. Therefore, after Yang Feng's appointment as the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang was issued, including the governor Bian Baoquan. The principal officials of Fujian immediately fled, and even when Xue Fucheng took over as governor of Fujian, more than half of his yamen had already run away. The rest are also some family businesses in Fujian, so they can't run if they want to, so they have to stay and fight to the death with these rebellious ministers and thieves.

"How is Yuan Shikai over there?" Yang Feng asked with a depressed face, he didn't expect this kind of thing, it seems that this slave has been in office for a long time, and the feeling of being a person still makes them uncomfortable!

"Don't say it, Yuan Duchen's heir really has some means, although there are also escapees in Zhejiang, but they are much worse than Fujian." Xue Fucheng said that this is not surprising, because the collusion between local officials and foreigners in Zhejiang was already relatively deep, and in the war some time ago, rich businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang made a fortune by supplying military supplies to the Germans and reselling plunder, and Yang Feng's mass base there was far stronger than that in Fujian.

"Let's go! This Governor is not uncommon with these fellows! First send them a notice and give them a deadline of one month to return all of them, otherwise all officials who have not returned will be dismissed on the spot. Yang Feng said viciously.

"Isn't that okay? There are still many officials who are not authorized to be appointed and dismissed by the governor, and if they are dismissed, the ministry will send new officials, so it is better to just leave their official positions vacant and let the agents we appoint to manage the place. Xue Fucheng said, in fact, Yang Feng and he did this in Taiwan, those deputies are elected by the local gentry, most of these gentry have bought fame, there is nothing wrong with appointing them as deputies, and from the perspective of Taiwan's effect, the effect is far better than when those local officials were there.

First, these people are familiar with the local people's feelings, and secondly, because they are agents, many powers are restricted, and even do not do well to offend the interests of the majority of the people, so the other gentry can jointly find Xue Fucheng to remove, and the removed people are also scolded for offending the township party for their actions when they are in office, so they are extra careful, of course, it is certain to reap benefits for their own families, but it is indeed a kind of controlled benefit, which is much better than those prefects and counties who covered the sky with one hand.

"Then it's up to you, you can do whatever you like, even if you get out of the council, it's up to you." Yang Feng said that Xue Fucheng was much better than him in this regard.

"Then you have to tell me first how far you can be the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, the old man has followed you in the last years, and now he is risking the risk of raiding his house and destroying the door, you guys have a way out, we people have no way out, we can't follow you into exile at that time, right? Although it can keep a lifetime of wealth, it is always bad to throw a handful of old bones in a foreign country. Xue Fucheng said with a smile, he has been coveting the Western system in Europe for a long time these years, and he can be said to be the most important advocate of China's constitutional system in history.

"You can rest assured that this governor of Fujian and Zhejiang estimates that no one can rob me if I don't die, only we will rob other people's territory these years, whoever dares to rob our territory will be killed directly, even if Lafayette wants to rob it is also a treatment." Yang Feng said with a cruel smile.

In this way, Xue Fucheng has nothing to say, he is not worried about Yang Feng's strength, as long as he makes up his mind.

"But in this case, our troops are not enough, although Song Qing and others also brought their soldiers, but in addition to participating in the Battle of Beijing, those who stayed in Tokyo ran most of them after receiving the money, and Yuan Weiting's men even ran more than 3,000, after all, these people are all in Henan and Shandong, if we really want to make trouble with the imperial court, their families will definitely be implicated." Xue Fucheng said.

This is expected by Yang Feng, in fact, in the past, there were a small number of his own subordinates who quit after making enough money, but the number is not much, and the vast majority of people have already been desperate to mix with him after understanding that Yang Feng arranged a good pension place for them, even if the Taiwanese and Yiwu recruits recruited later have not been to Western Australia, but now their homes are under Yang Feng's rule, so naturally there is no need to worry about the problems that those northern soldiers need to worry about.

"Then expand the army, with the current strength as the backbone, according to the Western military system, expand into three divisions of 50,000 people, exactly three provinces, one province and one division, and then form several additional garrisons, stationed in Ryukyu, Tanegashima and Jeju Island, the navy will continue to expand, and soon there will be four destroyers and two new high-speed cruisers from Sweden. The arsenal in Taiwan must be expanded, to be able to reach the scale of the Hanyang Arsenal, and we must also build another steel plant, Hanyang's annual output of tens of thousands of tons is too low, and it is not enough to build a railway. Yang Feng said that this problem is really necessary, although there are not many subway mines in Fujian, and it is difficult to mine under the current conditions, but it is nothing more than importing iron ore from outside, and then adding Keelung's coal mine is almost enough.

"Here we also need to renovate the Mawei shipyard, and it must be able to build new cruisers and destroyers, by the way, the people from the Harbour Master Bureau haven't run away now, right?" Yang Feng suddenly remembered a serious problem, those officials ran away and no one was rare, if the technical personnel of the Harbour Administration Bureau ran away, it would be a big loss, he is now also the Minister of Harbour, although Cixi has not yet been appointed, but it is customary for the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang to be the Minister of Harbour, and Bian Baoquan has run away, and it is estimated that no one dares to be this official.

"What do they run? The affairs of officialdom have nothing to do with them, and besides, the families of those major technical personnel are all in the local area, and they all rely on that income to make a living, and they can't even eat if they lose their errands, can they run?" Xue Fucheng said with a smile, in fact, the people in the Harbour Administration Bureau welcome Yang Feng more, and most of these people have returned from studying abroad, and their vision is not comparable to that of the green worms at all.

Now Yang Feng is relieved, speaking of which, these shipbuilding engineers can also be regarded as rare animals in China in this era, and the result is that the hard work of half a lifetime is not as good as a few words, it is quite pitiful, no wonder Japan can't be done in history, and it can't be better if you don't beat those green worms back to the prototype of this country.
