Chapter 482: Yellow Peril! Yellow peril! Yellow peril!
In the fifth year of Chongzhen's great courage, he wrote to the court to ask for a governor of the brigade, but the court did not reply, and the song was sunk into the sea.
Dayong was helpless, so he appointed himself the local officials of Denglai and Lushun, the prefect of Dengzhou was the former Denglai superintendent of the military Dao Wang Hui, and the prefect of Lushun was the former prefect of Dengzhou, Ge Wannian.
Wang Hui and Ge Wannian, like Song Guanglan of the original Dengzhou Dao, were all Confucian thieves who surrendered after Kong Youde's rebellion, and they had long been removed from the imperial court. Therefore, it is considered to be a grasshopper on a rope with Dayong, there are Dayong and they are there, and there is no Dayong without them, so he is very loyal to Dayong, and the errand assigned by Dayong is also done well, and he is deeply praised by Dayong, as the saying goes, you are my right-hand man of Shi Dayong. This is a bit sincere, but no one knows what to say.
For the management of Dengzhou and Lushun, Dayong adopted a divide and rule approach, that is, the original residents were managed by the prefect yamen and the prefect yamen, while the immigrants who moved later were managed by the Denglu resettlement envoy.
After Chongzhen's four years of courage to break through Dengzhou, he had turned tens of thousands of captured rebels into Dengzhou military tunhu, and promised that they would receive a certain amount of remuneration after three years of tuning and release home, this policy played a positive role in stabilizing the hearts of the captives, and also made the Dengzhou military tun able to operate quickly.
After the three-year period expired, Song Guanglan, who was in charge of Tuntian at that time, asked Dayong whether to fulfill the promise he made to the captives three years ago and let them go home.
Unexpectedly, the number of young and strong people who are willing to return to their hometowns is very small, only more than 600 people are willing to receive remuneration and return to their hometowns, and the rest of the young and strong people all choose to continue to stay in Dengzhou as tuntian households. Of course, Dayong wondered about this result, the Tuntian military households had no freedom, and now they were given freedom, but these people refused to leave.
Or Song Guanglan understood, he told Dayong that there are natural and man-made disasters in all parts of the Ming Dynasty, although these young people have no freedom in Dengzhou Tuntian, but they can also eat a full stomach, plus in the past three years, the young and strong people have to receive military training in addition to farming, and they have already integrated into the big family of Juntun, and they also have a sense of belonging to the Liaodong Army.
Song Guanglan also said that in the past three years, because of the stability of Dengzhou, many people in Laizhou and Shandong have also brought their families to vote, and some poor families have also married their daughters to military tun households, in order to be able to eat their stomachs. In addition to those disabled and retired military officers of the former Songshan Army, there are also many young and strong people who marry wives and have children, and once they become families, even if this root is rooted, it will be Dayong who will drive them away and not leave.
After listening to this explanation, Dayong was naturally happy, and it was indeed a great sense of accomplishment to be able to give the people a comfortable nest in this troubled world.
After thinking about it, Dayong still decided to let Song Guanglan transfer all the young people in Tuntian to Dengzhou's local household registration, return them to freedom, and distribute the reclaimed land to them, and hand over 30% of the annual harvest to the government.
The reason why this is so is because Dayong feels that Tuntian is a hard thing after all, and he has been squeezing them for three years in vain, and now that the conditions allow, he naturally wants to be more humane to them. Besides, these people are not leaving Dengzhou, as long as people stay in Dengzhou, they have to pay taxes, thirty percent of the net tax sounds less, but in fact it is already a lot, drought for many years, the cost of collection is not much, Dayong can't bear to let them pay five or six percent.
Being able to become a free citizen and get land to cultivate by himself is naturally a good thing that everyone is quick to do, and the day after the order was issued, Shi Dayong had the reputation of "living Bodhisattva" among the people. For this good name, Dayong calmly accepted it, compared to "Shi Peeling", this living Bodhisattva is much better. Hearing this, Dayong hurriedly stopped and said to the Tuntian officials who patted the horses Do you know the Gonggong of Wei, if you don't know the Dao, go and ask the masters in the yamen.
Ancestral Hall!
Dayong didn't dare to deserve it, he still wanted to live a few more years
In addition to allocating land to the freedmen, Dayong also asked the Dengzhou government and the four counties under its jurisdiction to organize the freedmen to raise livestock, and the Dengzhou government also organized the people to go to sea to fish.
Dengzhou is close to the sea, the so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, and it is not a fool to put the big fish reservoir of the Bohai Sea without reclamation.
If it weren't for the inconvenience of transportation and the difficulty of preserving in this era, Dayong might have started the idea of buying and selling aquatic products. Rao is like this, sun-dried kelp, seaweed and dried fish still appear in small batches in restaurants in the capital. Dayong told the officials in charge of seafood export that as long as they could open up sales channels, they would share in the profits.
Unlike what Dayong imagined, the dignitaries and nobles in this year don't seem to be very interested in seafood, and they probably don't look down on such cheap things, but they are peddlers and pawns, and ordinary people are very fond of kelp and dried fish.
In line with the principle of small profits but quick turnover, Dengzhou's seafood sales have opened up markets in Beijing and Tianjin, and tens of thousands of taels of silver have been collected every year. Although the money is small, so small that Dayong can't even look at it, Dayong still encourages the officials who run it to make this business bigger and stronger, and he often says, "Look to the future, look at the world"
Qian Dagang, the chief soldier of the naval division, had changed his career to become the leader of the caravan, and the waterway in the south had been opened, and Dayong sent people to connect with the Zheng family, and exchanged the gold, silver and jewelry stolen from the Dongyu for their cooperation, and transported the grain produced in the south to Denglu in a steady stream.
The Zheng family's appetite is too great, and Dayong estimates that if this cooperation continues, it will not take two years for the gold mountain stolen from Dongyu to be emptied by them. He wanted to eat black, but the Zheng family's sailors were stronger than his own sailors, and God knows how these pirates became more powerful than the official army! Fujian's government wants to kill their heads!
The idea of expanding the water division Dayong has not yet yet, no way, the family is limited, he has spent too much in the past two years, although he has opened up the source everywhere, but there is no throttling, this silver is like flowing water, and he can't hear the echo, which makes Dayong sometimes really want to go to Shenyang to grab a handful. But thinking about it, Haoge's family background is also limited, and he doesn't have a good chance to rob himself, so he can't take this risk. It's worth grabbing the North Koreans, but people are doing business with themselves under the pressure of Hauge, and it seems a bit unauthentic to rob others again. Japan is a good place to go, I heard that there is silver produced there, if you can grab a handful, it will be a big gain.
As soon as Qian Dagang told Qian Dagang about the idea of an expedition to Japan, the other party shook his head like a rattle and told Dayong a word, don't look at the sailors who can run away from Korea now, but if they really want to run to the Japanese country, they will fall apart halfway.
The wind and waves are strong!
The current Dengzhou Naval Division is not the Sanbao Eunuch giant ship fleet of the year, at best, it is slightly stronger than the Yangtze River Naval Division, and the two most capable ships are still sent by North Korea, and there are really not many who can show their hands. When I didn't see the wind at sea, Qian Dagang didn't even dare to go to Lushun, where did he have the courage to go to Japan to rob, or honestly be a merchant ship.
There is no way, the sailor can't go, Dayong can only rest this thought, thinking that in the future, the largest warship in Asia must be built in Lushun, and the sailor must also become a navy, so that the Dutch and Spanish warships will all fart, obediently pay tribute to Daming, and if they don't pay tribute, they will all slaughter these white monkeys and eat meat.
The Age of Discovery!
No matter how much the gambler ignores the world, he also knows that the seventeenth century was the time when European countries desperately expanded to the sea, which was called the Age of Discovery, and some people said that it was the Age of Discovery that opened the door to modern human civilization.
In this era that opens the door to modern human civilization, but can only look at the gate in a daze, Dayong is angry and doesn't want to know. I don't know if it's a broken jar or a broken head or an open head, he decided to wait until the Ming Dynasty is too peaceful, and he will lead the army to advance from the northwest all the way to the west, Central Asia, West Asia, Eastern Europe, and Western Europe will colonize all the places where the Ming army can go, but I want to see if the modern human civilization created by your great voyage is strong, or the continental civilization created by me Shi Dayong with a butcher's knife is strong!
Wait, white-skinned pigs, one day, you will look at the east with trembling fear, and exclaim: "Yellow Peril! Yellow peril! Yellow peril! ”
