Needless to say, the role of Phi Dao can even be used as a bridgehead for attacking the Jin Empire in the future, Zhu Jian of course paid close attention to it, and even went against the norm and personally intervened in the infrastructure construction of Phi Dao.

First of all, he ordered to collect a large number of fishing boats and merchant ships, and transported a large amount of cement, stones, sand and a lot of military supplies to Cao Bianjiao, and first built up the infrastructure of Phi Dao.

The expansion of wharves, roads and barracks is the first priority, and the large wharf can increase the number of berths and the throughput of goods, not to mention the benefits, there are many merchant ships traveling to and from Korea and Japan, and the taxes collected alone are a lot of income, which can help him solve the financial difficulties of the empire, and he no longer has to pay money from his pocket.

Barracks, that is, barracks, should not only be built well so that the soldiers can live comfortably, but also some recreational facilities should be built for the soldiers to have a good time, which consumes excess energy, and even builds up infrastructure such as roads, streets, and markets, so that the market is prosperous and lively, and there are many benefits.

Soldiers are stationed abroad all the year round, and they must be homesick, and the young men are now young and strong, and there is a surplus of hormones, so they have to build rows of family buildings, although they are a little smaller, but it is better than nothing, at least all the living family tithes are readily available.

There are very few young girls living on the island, so Zhu Jian tried to find a way to transfer them from the mainland to solve the problem of single soldiers, like some displaced people in the hard-hit areas, some dead husbands, widows who are difficult to survive, etc., the main source is the bandit gang that the troops exterminated and the mountain is king, and rescued many women who were robbed up the mountain.

Of course, everything pays attention to the principle of voluntariness, and it is not allowed to marry by force, the young men wear straight military uniforms, and they are lined up in a neat queue with high spirits, holding number plates in their hands, waiting for the review of the future lady, and the women hide behind the bamboo curtain to carefully select, and if they like it, they will directly report the number to the responsible chief, and the good thing will be done.

However, in the era when men and women are not kissed, most women are shy to answer, even if they are willing to say it in their hearts, most of the good things of bridging have to trouble the local matchmaker to run errands and play tricks.

Among these hard-working women, there are occasionally a few well-born and well-read, but the unfortunate daughters are basically married to officers, and officers have the right of first choice, which is an unwritten rule in the army, if you want to enjoy privileges, then work hard, this is also an incentive, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier.

The whole Phi Island is full of lights, a festive, firecrackling and joyful, laughter in the barracks, that is the soldiers are holding a collective wedding, the collective wedding is indeed very fresh in Daming, however, special circumstances are special handling, whether it is a soldier or a bride who is ashamed of the moon is happy to accept, there is no elder present to preside over the wedding, it is Cao Bianjiao, the commander of the three armies, who acted as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and tossed this young man who is also only in his twenties. Rather lead the soldiers on the battlefield and fight the Jin army.

Every woman who is willing to come to Phi Island receives a settling-in allowance of one hundred taels of silver, and marries a soldier and then receives a hundred taels of silver, two hundred taels of silver is a huge wealth that the poor people dare not think of, with this money to support, the women are also at ease, not to mention that the soldiers also have a monthly salary and some subsidies and benefits, this small life is enjoyable.

Considering the livelihood and other problems of his family members, Zhu Jian really racked his brains and bothered, the camp has a military service department, soldiers or their families can buy some special daily necessities with waist cards or ID cards at a discount, and all the staff members are filled by family members, such as the entertainment area, the sanitation and cleaning work in the block, the canteen, etc., all the staff members are also selected from the family members, and some jobs are arranged for the family members as much as possible to increase their income.

Some wasteland on the island has also been developed and reclaimed, some vegetables are cultivated, and some chickens, ducks, pigs and other poultry are raised in captivity, and these jobs also need some manpower, and there is a certain amount of remuneration every month, because these things are all military property and are collectively shared.

Zhu Jian tried his best to make the soldiers on the island self-sufficient, reduce the pressure on the imperial court, the main drinking water problem is not troublesome, there are several mountain springs on the mountain, not only to solve the water problem of the island's population, but also to store water to raise ducks and fish, and at the same time to water crops, even if the Jin army besieges Phi Island, there is no need to worry.

Zhu Jian was eager to go to Phi Dao to personally inspect the island, but this was impossible, so he could only tell Cao Bianjiao to consider the topography of the whole island and build various fortifications according to the topography of the island.

There are many places on the island where the terrain is extremely precipitous, with the treasure of cement, those steep terrain can be transformed into fortifications, make forts, set up cannons, especially ports, barracks, warehouses and other military important places, but also build more forts, protect within the range of cannons, as for the lookout tower, trenches and other fortifications are more numerous, in short, can not stand Zhu Jian to throw money on the island, the whole Phi Island was made into a large military fortress by him, just like a big hedgehog armed to the teeth, no matter who wants to attack Phi Island, Make sure you hit your head and bleed.

Zhu Jian's investment in Phi Dao is not limited to these, 5,000 soldiers and 2,000 auxiliaries are still a little less, and he got 3,000 strong soldiers from Guangxi, all of whom were transferred to Phi Dao to enrich Cao Bianjiao's strength, as long as Cao Bianjiao trained these 3,000 recruits well, he definitely had the strength to fight hard battles with the Jin army in the field.

The first batch of strong soldiers recruited in Guangxi often mailed money and letters to their families, telling their families about the situation of serving as soldiers here, and all kinds of good benefits that made people jealous and jealous made those young people who did not come envious and regretful, and when the second batch of recruits was recruited, there were tens of thousands of young and strong people who enthusiastically signed up alone, but it was a pity that only 3,000 people were recruited, and those who failed to pass all beat their chests and feet, crying and crying.

However, there are also serving wolf soldiers who give their brothers ideas, in addition to the wolf camp of the three new armies of the Son of Heaven, there are also the Phoenix Legion of the Red Guifei and the Shenji Battalion of General Li Xin, and the welfare benefits are all good, you can try your luck, of course, there are some prerequisites that must be met.

Not to mention, there are really a lot of strong seedlings and old watches who came to Beijing all the way to the Beijing Division, begging to enlist in the army, for these poor backgrounds, hard-working and simple young and strong, Zhu Jian likes them from the bottom of his heart, and all of them are assigned to the reserve camp, and the instructors will first conduct all kinds of strict training, and after passing the training, they will be assigned to various armies at any time to supplement the soldiers who have been damaged in battle.

The Ming Dynasty is still forbidden to the sea, and it is illegal for sea ships to run merchants, and there is no way to support the mountain, and if you are caught by the government, you will have to go to jail, and you will be punished for bankruptcy, and you will lose your head at the worst, but driven by interests, there are still many people who pin their heads to the waistband of their trousers and do smuggling work.

Of course, Zhu Jian knew that this thing came from money, so even if the Red Gang was expanding too fast and was short of manpower, he still asked the Red Master Lu Jiantong to dispatch reliable henchmen to stay on Phi Island for a long time, and make up a smuggling fleet, such as Korean ginseng, animal fur and so on, are very profitable businesses, and they don't make money in vain.

Zhu Jian spent his life and threw money, and he was not satisfied with running Phi Dao in a bit of frenzy, so he shifted his attention to the Liaodong Sailors.
