Chapter 68 Borneo

Looking out of the car window at the tall trees that were constantly receding rapidly, Huo Shan's mind echoed with Xu Jianyin's last words!

"The Chinese nation has waited too long!"

Huo Shan could clearly feel the ardent expectation for himself revealed in his words. Perhaps this is why everyone rallied around him and willingly served him, a seven-year-old child! Because everyone saw in him the hope of the rise of the country and the nation!

At this moment, the pressure in Huo Shan's heart increased greatly, he was burdened with too many people's expectations, if it weren't for the addition of the two lifetimes and the great increase in knowledge, I am afraid that this huge pressure would have crushed him a long time ago!

"It's really not easy to lead such an increasingly large force!" Huo Shan, who was already studying hard, still felt that he was far behind!

Yang Yong, the new governor of Borneo, who also feels this way!

Writing down the last word, putting down the pen in his hand, and putting the processed documents aside, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief! But after seeing his office secretary carrying in a large stack of documents that were urgently to be processed, Yang Yong couldn't help but shake his head a little painfully! Now Borneo has been divided into eight prefectures and fifty-six counties! In the space of more than a year, the number of immigrants from the country has exceeded 4 million, and with the addition of the Chinese who used to live here and the indigenous women who have married Chinese as wives, the population of Borneo has now reached more than 7 million! It can be said that after nearly a year of operation by the Huo Jiajun, Borneo, the third largest island in the world, with a land area of 750,000 square kilometers, has completely become the homeland of the Chinese and will never be oppressed by anyone again!

However, compared with such a large population, Borneo Province as a whole is seriously lagging behind in the construction of people's livelihood and transportation facilities! To this day, many immigrants from the country still live in makeshift and simple wooden houses. Of course, the province's large-scale construction has provided them with numerous job opportunities, and there is no problem in raising their families!

Looking at the documents on the table, Yang Yong picked up the fountain pen on the table again, this is to facilitate the office of zhèngfǔ, Huo Shan specially ordered the machine from Germany to produce, there were originally more serious problems such as spitting ink! But after a series of improvements by Huo Shan, the pen can be much better, of course, the young master Huo Da, who understands the value of this little thing, took it to the world for the first time to register a patent! Now he has become another source of money in Huo Shan's hands, providing assistance for the increasingly large amount of zhèngfǔ expenses!

Writing down simplified characters one by one, clear handwriting is indeed much more convenient than a heavy brush! Yang Yong secretly praised in his heart, "The young master's talent is really endless!"

"Squeak!"

With a hoarse sound of the door opening, a heavy footstep came from between the floors and into Yang Yong's ears, interrupting his thoughts!

"Who is it?, why don't you knock on the door when you come in!" Yang Yong frowned, and said secretly in his heart.

"Lao Yang, are you still handling official business? When you become the governor, you are much more diligent than when you were in the army before!"

"Jianguang!!!Why do you have time to come to me?" Listening to the familiar voice, Yang Yong quickly raised his head and looked at the sturdy young man who came over in surprise, and asked in a pleasant tone.

"Hehe, I can't come here if you want to! You must know that a few months ago, you moved the entire political department of our Fifth Division!" I remembered that when Yang Yong first became the governor of Borneo Province, except for the first deputy political commissar who was about to become the political commissar of the Fifth Division, almost all of the entire political department, plus the political departments of each regiment, were packed and taken away! This made him, the division commander, busy for a while to fill this vacancy!

"That's the young master's regulations, you can't blame me!" Yang Yong stood up, walked to the rest area next to the desk, picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of clear and fragrant tea and put it in front of Huo Jianguang, and said with a smile!

"This is the last time I went to Taiwan, I got the big red robe from the young master, although it is not from those three tea trees, but it is also a rare jīng product, you are blessed this time!" Yang Yong said with some pain. You must know that this is the first generation of tea trees cultivated by Huo Shan according to the biological knowledge he is familiar with, cutting branches from Wuyi Mountain, and cultivating only ten tea trees, and the annual output is only a little! Usually they are treasured like treasures! But they can't stand the gluttony of these tea tasting under his hands, and every time more than half of the tea leaves go into their pockets!

Now, under the leadership of Huo Shan, almost all of Huo Jiajun are fond of drinking tea, and the jīng tea that Huo Jianguang received this year has already been drunk! So, after hearing his words, he immediately picked up the teacup, smelled it intoxicated, took a sip, and said with satisfaction: "First bitter and then sweet, the entrance is long, and the aftertaste is long! It is really a rare good tea, but the annual output is too little!"

"Hehe, is it rare to be expensive, if there are too many, it will be ordinary!" Yang Yong took a sip and said with an intoxicated face.

"That's right, but when I leave, you have to take care of your old friends more, my share of the year has already been drunk!"

"Okay, how much do you want? For the sake of our many years of working together, I can give you a little bit!" Yang Yong said with a smile.

"Not much! a tael is enough!"

Looking at one of his outstretched fingers, Yang Yong's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he said angrily: "One or two? I myself have less than three taels! Unless you take out another five hundred veterans and let them retire into the zhèngfǔ department, now I am in short supply here!"

"Five hundred, no, it's too much!" Huo Jianguang immediately shook his head and said his own conditions, the young master had originally ordered that the garrison troops in various places should help the local construction of the local government, and now it can be regarded as an unexpected gain to be able to get a little good tea from him!

"Four hundred and five!

"Two hundred! It can't be higher, after all, too many veterans will affect the combat effectiveness of the troops!"

"Four hundred, that's all right! The three-level departments of counties and townships below us are seriously short of manpower, but with these four hundred people, we can solve big problems, and the resettlement of immigrants can be accelerated, and when the time comes, your army garrison will be more targeted, and the stability of the army will also be more beneficial to the construction of the army! In particular, the various guard units will be recruited from the immigrants in the future, if they can't settle down, who wants to be a soldier!" Yang Yong said slowly.

"Okay, four hundred is four hundred!" Huo Jianguang was obviously persuaded by the great prospects he depicted!

"But, Lao Yang, I found that since you became the governor of this province, your mouth is much more powerful than before in the army!"

Seeing his former old partner rolling his eyes and looking a little regretful, Yang Yong said with a smile: "No way, people will always change!"

"Okay, let's not talk about this! You are a master, why are you running to me here if you have nothing to do? I'm not a woman, you don't need to think of me!" Yang Yong, who had made a lot of money, hurriedly changed the topic.

Hearing his words, Huo Jianguang couldn't help but touch his nose, he had planned to say this before!

"That's right! I would like to ask you to do some help with the jǐng cha of the zhèngfǔ department! Now we are busy with construction here, and in addition to the large number of immigrants pouring in from the country, the movement is getting bigger and bigger, and the foreigners are not stupid, they have already noticed it! In addition, our Borneo province is located near the Strait of Malacca, and there are many ships that come and go on a regular basis, and now we have become more and more eye-catching here. In just this month, my coastal guards have captured more than 50 spies from Britain, France, Germany, and other Western countries who have come to listen to our intelligence under various slogans! But most of the people we have arrested are whites, and it is possible that many indigenous people and even Chinese from the South Seas have mixed into our territory! After all, Borneo Province is an island, and the coastline is too long, and our troops do not have so many troops to monitor the whole island, so the Jǐng Cha troops that you have just formed are another pair of eyes for us! So, I'm here to ask you for help this time!" Huo Jianguang is full of the vigorous and resolute style of a soldier in his bones, and when it comes to serious things, he is much more serious!

"So, our matter here has been leaked?" Yang Yong asked with a frown.

"Not yet, most of the people below us are civilians transferred from China, and they have already distributed ID cards and household registration books according to the new household registration system promulgated by the young master, coupled with our strict monitoring, the news should not have been leaked! However, with the development of our own economy, the external ties will become closer and closer, and I am afraid that the danger of leakage will increase over time!" Huo Jianguang replied with some concern.

"Now, we can only try our best to do our own thing, I believe that with the wisdom and wisdom of the young master, we will always think of a solution to the problem!" Yang Yong said with a smile.

"That's what I said!" Thinking of the usual degree of demonic Young Master Huo, Huo Jianguang couldn't help but relax!

"Okay, don't worry, I'll tell the Jǐng inspection troops to cooperate with you later, let's go! It's almost noon, you can stay with me today and go back to the barracks after eating!" Yang Yong pulled Huo Jianguang up from the sofa and said with a smile.

"Hehe, okay! It just so happens that after your old Yang left the army, did the amount of alcohol regress!"
