With the support of the royal family, Wang Yun began to recruit a large number of people to expand the naval army. There is a big difference between an ordinary navy and a navy capable of making long-distance voyages in the sea. After all, storms in the ocean are not something that ordinary people can handle.

In order to train enough sailors, Wang Yun asked those veteran sailors who had experienced the test of storms to teach them by hand. In this way, after a period of teaching, and then let them go through a few stormy baptisms, they are basically qualified.

In order to cooperate with the control of the Greater and Lesser Ryukyus and the Fuso Islands, the size of the navy had to expand rapidly, and according to the consultation of the royal family, the number of sailing sailors should be at least 50,000.

The naval bases of the Great and Small Ryukyus were being built rapidly, and a large number of nobles began to gather materials, grain, cattle, and agricultural tools, and transported them to the Great Ryukyu Island with the help of the fleet of the naval army.

After half a year of land reclamation, only half of the 200,000 acres of farmland were planted with sugarcane.

Among them, Wang Yun provided a total of 20,000 Japanese serfs and 3,000 ploughing cattle organized by the nobles and heroes, which played an important role.

The growth cycle of sugarcane is about seven months, and the island of Ryukyu has a warm climate with abundant rain, and there is no winter, and after planting sugarcane, it is possible to grow a season of rice.

When the nobles and magnates learned this, they immediately understood the value of the land here. Many people wanted to take ownership of these lands, but alas, the royal family did not intend to sell them at all.

Even if these nobles had the intention of cheating, they did not have the slightest power to fight back in the face of the imperial court that had mastered the fleet.

The nobles and magnates are ready to buy more serfs and cattle to complete the cultivation of the plantation as soon as possible. In ten years, as long as you operate carefully, you can earn at least several times the return on investment.

After realizing this, many nobles began to look for the royal family and wanted to cultivate more fields. You must know that on the Great Ryukyu Islands, it is enough to reclaim one million acres of farmland, and now only 100,000 yuan has been reclaimed, even if there is only the right to use, ten years is enough to make a lot of money.

The royal family did not refuse to allow the nobles and magnates to reclaim more farmland, but demanded that the land for which they had originally purchased the right to use be reclaimed and planted before they could continue to buy.

In addition to cultivating farmland, the royal family also began to recruit people to start building roads, strongholds, estates, irrigation ditches, etc., on the island in preparation for immigration.

Although it was difficult to emigrate to the Greater Ryukyu Islands, many people were reluctant to go, but they had to do it, and at the same time, the imperial family began to recruit some princely families to migrate to the Great Ryukyu Islands.

Although the whole process is slow, it is still very objective after a few years.

The population of the Central Plains was at its peak, and after the division of the fields was not carried out, those strong men began to immigrate to the border areas under the organization of the imperial court, and there were still some who were willing to go to the Great Ryukyu.

After returning to the Ryukyus, they also learned from the Great Ryukyu people, began to cultivate land, plant sugar cane, learn the language of the Qianren, change the names of the Qianren, learn the clothes of the Qianren, and learn the clothes and farming methods of the Qianren. Everything is learned from the dry people.

The imperial court still agreed with this situation, so it allowed the large and small Ryukyus to send envoys to study. The lords of the Ryukyu Kingdom carefully selected 20 people to come to Daqian to study.

These envoys were called envoys to China, mainly to learn the culture and system of the Great Qian, and those techniques could only be learned with the consent of the imperial court.

These Qianhua envoys could study Confucian classics, Taoism and Legalism, and even Mohist, famous and other schools, but the Mohist Gewu School, the Gongluo family, and the peasant family were strictly restricted and were not allowed to study, and even books were not allowed to come into contact.

The royal family knows very well what is the fastest thing to provide strength in this era, although in the school palace, Confucianism, Legalism, Taoism, famous scholars, etc., all shout that they must rely on them to govern the country and strengthen the country, and only they can make the country strong and stable forever.

But in reality, these schools of thought are more about developing a framework of rules, and then building up power according to the country's population, land. The Mojia Gewu School and the Gong Loser, as well as the research institutes of the royal family, are completely different.

These things only need to be learned, and you can quickly improve your strength in a short period of time, and the longer you go, the more you will increase your strength. These schools of thought are forces that can change the world. It can make a small country with a small land population burst out with a powerful force that is several times more powerful than the population of other land.

The royal family protects this knowledge very closely, and even there are no books on this knowledge in the school palace, and if you want to learn it, except for some people's family inheritance, there are only places like the great master craftsman as the supervisor and the royal research institute.

The royal family is completely different from those classics of Confucianism, Legalism, and Taoism, and there are almost no restrictions on any threshold. He even brought out some theories about the concept of foolish people and weak people.

These doctrines have been eliminated by the royal family in Daqian, but they are very attractive to those small states. The vast majority of the lords of these small countries did not think about opening up the wisdom of the people, but chose to stabilize themselves and their descendants as the rulers of the country.

These lords know that this practice is not conducive to the improvement of national strength, but they still choose these. This is also good news for the big cadres, and it is a good restriction on the promotion of those countries.

Confucianism, Legalism, Taoism, famous scholars and other academic classics are very good, listening to them can make people's eyes shine, and even feel that this is his lifelong pursuit, but theory is theory, and it is extremely difficult to turn it into practice.

To put it simply, this kind of liberal arts is biased towards philosophy, which can govern the country, while a strong country needs science. Otherwise, in the end, it will only become the Republic of China in real history, with all kinds of so-called masters, but the national strength is weak, and other people's planes and cannons have come out early, but the Republic of China can't even build a bicycle.

The royal family's positioning of the school palace is very clear, and the governance of the country can rely on the scholars of the school palace, but the power is in another place.

The arrival of the envoys from the Great and Small Ryukyus led the imperial family to make some improvements to the school palace system, and at the same time, it also caused other countries to send envoys to study in China.

——

The emergence of the Chinese envoys was the first large-scale cultural exchange in human history, and it was also a large-scale expansion of ancient Chinese civilization to China. This large-scale cultural exchange also laid the foundation for the later Chinese cultural circle. Through the Chinese envoys, other small countries in China have been profoundly influenced by Chinese culture.

Over the course of more than 1,000 years, the sense of cultural identity has brought more and more vassal states into the Chinese family. ——"The Development of Civilization - Sending Envoys to China"
