"Gold mine, gold! hehe, it's so good!" Huang Sheng couldn't help but laugh. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Looking at his happy appearance, Huo Shan couldn't help but shake his head, "Teacher, the gold mine can't be handed over to you now, and it can't be mined for at least three to four years, and the news of gold in Alaska can't be exposed within ten years!"

"Why?"

"Because I want to keep Alaska wild and backward in the eyes of the world, cold and snowy, and worthless! Only in this way can we get from the British the vast lands of Western Canada, which they regard as wilderness." Otherwise, once the news of gold comes out of Alaska, then the eyes of the whole world will be attracted here, not to mention whether we can stop the greedy Europeans at that time, I am afraid that our plan to seize more territory in the Americas will also be in vain!" Huo Shan said with a firm expression.

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Huang Sheng nodded in agreement. As long as Alaska is still in the hands of Huo Jiajun, the gold will not run away, sooner or later it will be Huo Jiajun's own, so it will be the same if it is mined one day earlier and one day later! Moreover, the gold in Huo Jiajun's hands is basically placed in the central bank and has not been put into the market, so even if the gold is mined, it will not be used for a while!

"Okay, let's talk about the issue of dividing provinces and cities first!" Huo Shan hurriedly pulled the topic back again!

Alaska was renamed Youzhou Province, and the provincial capital was located in Youyou Philadelphia (Fairbanks)! It consists of Yuyang, Shanggu, Youbeiping, Liaoxi, Liaodong, Xuansu, Lelang, Zhuozhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou, Fanyang, Pingxiang, Daizhou, Pinglu, Wuzhou, Yunzhou, Danzhou, Yingzhou, Leyang, Changyuan, Mozhou, Ulzhou, and Goryeo, a total of 24 prefectures. It covers an area of 1,718,000 square kilometers!" "It can be seen from the name that Huoshan has followed the different names of more than a dozen dynasties from Qin to Song!

"Young Master. Youzhou Province's more than 1.7 million square kilometers of land is only set up in one provincial-level division, isn't it too little!" Huo Wolf couldn't help but ask, the jurisdiction of a Youzhou is more than half of all the land in the Nanyang Islands of the Huo Jiajun now!

"Now, there are still too few people in Youzhou, and one province will be enough, and when the economy here is developed and the population is large. In the division as appropriate!" Huo Shan said.

"The state of Washington and the territory of Oregon were merged and renamed Liangzhou Province, and Salem, the seat of the Oregon state capital, should be Haidong City. It is the capital of Liangzhou Province. It consists of: Zhangye, Jincheng, Longxi, Fufeng, Beidi, Anding, Longyou, Wudu, Guzang, Xiutu, Xuanwei, Cangsong, Caohan, Heyuan, Xihai, a total of 15 prefectures, with an area of 439,800 square kilometers!

"California has its own province, the province of Yizhou. Keep Los Angeles. There is no need to change the name, and it will be directly the capital of Yizhou Province! It consists of Shuzhou, Qianwei, Zhuti, Yuejun, Qike, Jianning, Yongchang, Hanzhong, Guanghan, Zitong, Bajun, Brazil, Badong, Ziyang, Fuling, and Gaoshan, a total of 16 prefectures, covering an area of 400,000 square kilometers! As for the additional 24,000 square kilometers of land, a municipality will be set up with San Francisco as the center and renamed Overseas Chinese Town!

"Young Master, why do you still want to leave the awkward foreign name of Los Angeles, just change it all for a short time!" Huo Di asked with some puzzlement.

"Huh. We swung our forces across the Pacific to defeat the United States. Occupy the vast land west of the Mississippi River, and always leave something to commemorate the martial arts achievements of our Huo Family Army!"

"Xiaoshan is right, wave the enemy country and expand the territory of tens of millions! This kind of immortal martial arts will naturally be remembered in history! It is very good to leave a city named after foreigners!" Huang Sheng touched his gray beard and said with a smile. Although he studied in the UK when he was young, the concept of 'governing the country and leveling the world' advocated by Confucianism in his bones can be said to be deep-rooted!

"What the teacher said is true!" After a pause, Huo Shan continued: "The territory of Montana and the territory of Ioda are combined into one province, which is the province of Merge Prefecture, and the capital of the original Montana territory Helena has been renamed Shancheng, as the capital of the province of Bingzhou, under the jurisdiction of Taiyuan, Shangdang, Xihe, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Yanmen, Shuofang, Wuyuan, Shangzhou, Leping, Xinyang, Xinxing, Yangqu, a total of thirteen prefectures, with an area of 597,800 square kilometers!"

"The Nevada Territory and the Utah Territory have been merged into one province, which is Yongzhou Province, and the original Nevada Territory capital Carson City has been renamed Mingzhu City, as the capital of Yongzhou Province! It consists of Fengzhou, Qinzhou, Xiqi, Xiliang, Fengling, Hongnong, Jingzhao, Hehuang, Gaoling, Anyi, and Luozhou, a total of 11 prefectures, with an area of 50.63 square kilometers!"

"The Wyoming Territory and the Colorado Territory have been merged into one province and become Jizhou Province, and the original capital of the Wyoming Territory has been changed from Cheyenne to Xiazhou, as the capital of Jizhou Province! Xiaxindu, Changshan, Zhongshan, Hejian, Qinghe, Zhaoguo, Julu, Bohai, Weizhou, Fuliu, Changcheng, Piyang, Gaoping, Guanjin, Wuyi, and Dongchang, a total of 17 prefectures, with an area of 453,600 square kilometers! It is a pity that the Colorado Territory lacks a part of the southeast corner, otherwise this is a large province with an area of more than 500,000 square kilometers!" Huo Shan said with some pity.

"Okay, be content!" If the Americans know that we are arrogantly dividing provinces and cities into cities on their land, then we don't know what kind of anger we will become!" Huang Sheng said with a smile.

"Well, I really want to see U.S. President Alan Arthur don't have a heart attack after getting the news that we've annexed a large part of their Mississippi River!"

"Haha, that's what the young master said!"

"Okay, let's continue! The Arizona Territory and part of New Mexico have been merged into one province to become Yanzhou Province, and the former capital of the Arizona Territory has been changed from Phoenix to Jinyang City, as the capital of Yanzhou Province! It consists of Puyang, Dongping, Jibei, Taishan, Chenliu, Jiyang, Rencheng, Shanyang, Jinxiang, Yuncheng, Qiaozhou, and Taining, a total of 12 prefectures, with an area of 44.53 square kilometers!

"The Dakota Territory has its own province, which is Qingzhou Province! And the original Dakota Territory capital Bismarck has been changed to Jibei City, as the capital of Qingzhou Province! It consists of Donglai, Beihai, Jiyin, Yidu, Guangyang, Dongping, Pingyuan, Chong'an, Gaoyang, Linzi, Bohai, Weicheng, Qingyang, Qingchuan, a total of 14 prefectures, covering an area of 383,000 square kilometers!"

"Minnesota plus a small part of northern Wisconsin will be combined into one province and become Xuzhou Province! It will be changed from Minneapolis, the former capital of Minnesota, to Lishui City, and will be the capital of Xuzhou Province! It will consist of Langxi, Donghai, Guangling, Xiapi, Pengcheng, Kaiyang, Longshan, Guide, Fengyang, and Tongshan, a total of 10 prefectures, covering an area of 239,000 square kilometers!"

"Iowa Prefecture is combined with the northern part of Missouri to form a single province and becomes Jingzhou Province! It has been changed from Des Moines, the former capital of Iowa, to Jingyang City, which is the capital of Jingzhou Province! It consists of Jiangxia, Nanyang, Wancheng, Jiangling, Wuling, Lingling, Guiyang, Xiling, Songyang, Zhongxiang, and Jiangzuo, a total of 11 prefectures, with an area of 225,700 square kilometers!"

"Nebraska and northern Kansas are combined into one province and become Yuzhou Province! The former Nebraska provincial capital Omaha has been changed to Pingzhou City, which is the provincial capital of Yuzhou Province! It consists of Ruyang, Peizhou, Yingchuan, Zhaiyang, Lulong, Xingping, Guangnan, Xiangzhou, Qiaozhou, Baiyang, Chenzhou, and Luling, a total of 12 prefectures, covering an area of 300,000 square kilometers!"

"In total, 11 provinces, 1 municipality directly under the central government, 11 sub-provincial cities, 155 prefectures, and an area of 5,292,700 square kilometers!"

Huo Shan's voice fell, and while Huang Sheng was excited about Huo Jiajun's expansion of territory again, he couldn't help but feel a trace of sorrow in his heart!

"So, our government affairs yuan has to prepare twelve provincial and ministerial-level political officials, eleven vice-provincial political officials, and we also need to find 155 governors?"

"I'm afraid yes, teacher! But we have developed for such a long time, and now many officials in our ten provinces and two cities already have a certain amount of experience in governance! In each of our provinces and every prefecture and county, in addition to the main position, there are also two deputy positions, and this time they just happened to be sent to these provinces to take up posts! This should not be difficult, right?" Huo Shan asked a little strangely.

"Of course, it is not too difficult for us to have our own reserves of provincial and ministerial-level officials, but you have set up 155 prefectures in the Americas at once, which is more than twice the number of our Nanyang and Pacific prefectures, and you told me to go there and find so many qualified prefecture and county-level officials at once! In particular, now is the time when the economy and industry of our Nanyang Territory are developing rapidly, and if too many officials are withdrawn at once, it is very easy to cause administrative disorder and have a certain impact on our economic development!"

"What the teacher said is! Why don't you do that? We will count all the political officials in the provinces and cities in the South and Pacific Oceans, the Indochina Peninsula, and the Qing Dynasty, and select some of them! Then select some of the college students majoring in history and law from Taiwan University, as well as the young children studying in the United States, and then let them serve as officials at the prefectural and county levels. I believe that in these relatively wild places, with the spirit of young people who dare to fight, maybe they can bring us surprises!" Huo Shan said.

After listening to Huo Shan's words, Huang Sheng thought about it for a while, and began to feel that this was indeed a good note, so he nodded and agreed!

"The political chiefs of the newly established provinces and cities, after you go back, you will discuss the specific personnel yourself, and after the discussion, make a table to list their life, personality, education, and other information, so that it is convenient to consult and at the same time, it also prevents spies from other countries from mixing into our Huo family army!" )
