In the absence of partisanship and intra-party struggles, elections prioritize personal prestige and leadership. In terms of personal prestige, Yao Jinbo is highly respected, and he is the oldest here, so he should be in charge. But all the things have always been handled by Li Yuming's family, and they are the ones who led them here, and now, Ba Niu has brought them wealth, and it is unfair not to choose them in any way. However, whether to choose Li Yuming or Ba Niu has also become a problem. The young people are more inclined to Ba Niu, and the older ones are more inclined to Li Yuming, and the two sides are arguing endlessly, and there is no conclusion.

"Brother, my people are leaving", Qiu Jirong watched them make endless noise, and whispered to Ba Niu: "Sanxian Island is still waiting for us to go back."

"Brother, when you come here, why do you have to leave without even eating tea? At least we have to be around, let the little brother do his best as a landlord, and it's not too late to go."

"You and my brother, it's not on these red tapes", Qiu Jirong still whispered to him: "It's inconvenient for me to participate in the things in front of you, but there is a sentence for my brother, I hope my brother can accept it: Parents are relatives, and interests are demagoguery." It is better to think about the troubles of the future than to cut off the root of the chaos."

How smart is Ba Niu? After a little contemplation, I understood what he meant. Since ancient times, the word "profit" has been the most harmful to others. Whether it is two people in the world or close relatives, they are turned against each other by the word profit, framed each other, and even killed each other, abound. In ancient times, Shun was a great sage, but his biological father and younger brother Xiang designed many ways to frame him for his property and wife, wanting to put him to death. Sun Bin and Pang Juan, the apprentices of the first master, are like flesh and blood, Pang Juan scraped Sun Bin's knee, and Sun Bin shot Pang Juan to death. Although one of the two things is for wealth and the other is for jealousy, they are both caused by their own interests. Sun Pang has two surnames, the flesh and blood of the Shun family, the ending is slightly different, but the cruelty of his methods in the struggle and the sinister intentions are the same. The list goes on. Although he is still only a farmer now, and there are only a few dozen people around him, he will grow his power in the future and dominate one side, if he cedes his rights to his father at this time, Qiu Jirong is afraid that they will have something like each other, so he will cut off this root at this time. This was Qiu Jirong's kindness, but Ba Niu didn't think so. His relationship with his parents and Li Youlan is by no means comparable to those people, so he just thanked him, and then said: "In the world, there is no father and the son is above it, and my father and I are one and the same, and there is no suspicion, he is in this position, it is logical, how can I compete with him?" Even if there is a palace fight in the future, I will retreat to the forest to raise for more than a few years, and I will never do Li Shimin, and there is a matter of Xuanwumen forcing the palace."

Qiu Jirong was originally an outsider, how could he do something discordant between father and son? When he said this, he had no choice but to give up. Then he got up.

He beckoned into the distance, and immediately four people, carrying the last box, came over.

"If there is a priceless treasure in this world, then the thunder stone is definitely one of them", as he spoke, he personally opened the box: "This is the native product of Sanxian Island, a rare thing in the world, my uncle got it, he didn't dare to cherish it, and he gave it to his brother as a souvenir." Of course, it's not much use to give away the original stone, so my uncle asked the old blacksmith Zou Mingxuan to create a protective weapon for my brother."

Ba Niu and everyone looked into the box together, and saw a skyscraper on the golden wrapper. This big axe, golden in color, shines in the sun, extremely dazzling. The handle of the axe is about 1.6 meters long, and the diameter of the axe head is 1.2 meters. There are nine dragon intaglio carvings on the axe handle, and the end is the head of the dragon swallow, and the six-edged tip is compiled. The top is also a pearl swallow, and the three edges are long.

When Ba Niu saw this weapon, he felt that the treasure was of little value. He stepped forward, grabbed the axe in his hand, and weighed the weight, which was more than a hundred catties. He danced a little, and was overjoyed, this one was more reasonable in weight distribution and easier to use than the axe he had used before.

"The old man's generous gifts, but Li is disrespectful." He put the axe back into the box and looked behind him, and immediately two people came over and carried it in with the box.

"Brother, say goodbye to my brother"! As he spoke, he made another gesture to everyone: "Everyone, Sanxian Island and Li Brothers are already a family, and you are also the family members of Sanxian Island.

Everyone stayed together, but Qiu Jirong just didn't want to, so in the end they had to send him to the beach together, watch them get on the boat, and didn't come back until the shadow of the boat was gone.

"We have almost discussed what happened just now", after returning home, only Yao Jinbo, Li Bainian, Li Yaoxiang, Li Yuming and Ba Niu gathered together to discuss the things just proposed.

"Personally, I think it's best for your father and son to manage together", Yao Jinbo said: "Although the family affairs are not big, there are a lot of them, and they will develop in the future, and one person may not be able to take care of them." And then there is the pirate side, and only the kid Ba Niu can handle it, and he is indispensable to deal with the locals. Your father and son are one in the Lord and one outside the Lord, and they assist each other, plus the three of us, not to mention foolproof, it can be counted."

The others nodded yes, and the matter was settled. So far, the country of Ba Niu has also taken shape.

"There is someone in charge, and we have to discuss other things." Li Bainian said: "We have now reclaimed half of the basin of the Qiushan Peninsula, and the other half will also be reclaimed. But now labor is a problem, and if we can't hire more workers from the local area, not only will the prospects for land reclamation be not optimistic, but the autumn harvest will also be a problem."

"It's better to be like this", Li Bainian said: "Let's raise the price for them, there will be brave men under the heavy reward, and when they see that they get cheap, others will naturally come."

"This can only solve the urgent need for a while, but not the fundamental problem", Ba Niu suddenly interjected: "The aborigines of the Autumn Mountain Peninsula are only a thousand people, even if half of them come, they will still not be enough in the future, and the people's hearts are insufficient. If you can't satisfy him, you will lose all your efforts."

"But we have to do this", Li Bainian said: "There are only these people on the island, and it is too far to go to the Central Plains, and it does not meet the design, what else can be done?"

"There are three methods, and all three methods should be implemented at the same time".

Looking at his confident expression, everyone looked at each other.

"Then you can talk about it, say it, let's discuss it." They still didn't quite believe him.

"The current situation is maintained like this, needless to say. In addition, we are going to plant these fields separately. We can only grow one crop because of the problem of seeds, which leads to the concentration of cultivation and harvesting, as well as the concentration of labor, which undoubtedly increases the pressure of recruitment. In a few days, I will go to Kyoto and buy more seeds there, so that the crops will be diversified, and the burden of planting and harvesting will be lightened."

This proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, in fact, everyone thought of this solution, but no one put forward it, and in addition, it was useless to put forward it at that time, there was no money, and it could not solve any problems.

"What about the other two"?

"I'm going to Dadu again."

"Go to Dadu"? The old men immediately couldn't sit still, it would cost a lot of money, even though they were very rich now.

"Yes, I want to go to Dadu once", he said with a firm gaze, "because, in the entire Kyushu continent, only the Kangle people are still selling slaves."

"You ......, you want to buy slaves"? This proposal was immediately opposed by everyone. Since the abolition of slavery, people in these free countries have been treated as alternative, let alone bought, for the mention of slaves.

"This will never work"! Li Yuming was the first to stand up and object, his eyes were already bloodshot with anger, and he had to open his hair: "Except for those who exterminate humanity, no one will raise slaves, no one else, let alone us"!

He glared at Ba Niu in extreme anger, trying to get him to give in.

"We don't agree either," Yao said on behalf of the other two, "this is a matter of principle, and there is no need to discuss it."
