After thanking him, Zhang Han calmed down and then continued to report to Wang Dong.

While inspecting various places, apart from the administration of officials, the most important thing is the implementation of the new order from the Governor's Office. Judging from the current situation, although the implementation of the new order has caused resistance from local governments and various commercial banks, it has been implemented after the forced implementation of the Governor's Office.

As for the adjustment results brought by the Xin Ling, it is not yet visible at the moment. According to Zhang Han, the statement, it will take at least half a year or even a year to reflect it. However, the purpose of the Xin Ling is obvious. Both Zhang Han or Wang Dong himself are very confident. In their opinion, if we want to shorten the gap between Xin Ming and the local area, and make Xin Ming truly become like the local area of ​​the Ming Dynasty, the implementation of the Xin Ling is necessary.

As for the second thing, it is to investigate the province. Zhang Han has only made a general summary of this matter. You should know that Xinming is now vast and many places are even sparsely populated. Not to mention surveying, it takes a lot of time to even take a quick look around.

Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Zhang Han to complete this matter in just over two months. At present, we can only focus on the three cities of Wanghai City, Sun City and Pingyi City, and first investigate the mountains, rivers, and other terrain in the surrounding areas of the three cities, and proceed step by step, and then slowly expand the scope.

"The Grand Commander, Xiaguan felt that Wanghai City was two thousand miles east and one thousand five hundred miles south as the boundary. Sun City was eight hundred miles north, six hundred miles east and one thousand two hundred miles south as the boundary. Then, Pingyi City was as the center, and the east was one thousand one hundred miles east, six hundred miles west and six hundred miles north, and eight hundred fifty miles south as the boundary. First divide these three provinces and regions, and then the remaining areas were like the northeast, northwest and southeast slowly built three provinces, and the entire Xinming divided six provinces, how about it?"

Wang Dong thought for a while, got up and came to the map hanging on the wall. Zhang Han followed behind and pointed at the map to explain his suggestions to Wang Dong.

Although this map is not complete, it has a clear outline for the entire Xinming. Listening to Zhang Han’s suggestions and explanations, and corresponding to the trend of some mountains, rivers and rivers on the map, Wang Dong thought about it and nodded, "It's good to have three provinces first, and then slow down the other three provinces. However, how to divide the specific provincial boundaries still needs to be carefully investigated and determined."

"This is natural. The officials have arranged people to do this matter. It is precisely because of this that it is recommended to set up three provinces first. After all, the three cities of Wanghai, the sun and the flat-bright are the Xinming City. It is most suitable as the capital of the three provinces. Moreover, the surrounding areas are surveyed earlier, and the Governor's Office is relatively complete in grasping the terrain, which is more convenient to implement."

Wang Dong nodded, expressed his approval of the suggestion, and then thought about it: "After the establishment of a province, it is imperative to build a new city, especially in the east and south. Several cities should be built as soon as possible. This is a major event for Xinming!"

Zhang Han agreed to this that the east and south sides of Xinming each bordered France, Britain and Spain. Although there were troops stationed at the border, it was necessary to build a city in order to ensure local control, and a large city must be built as a guarantee of possible military operations.

However, for Xinming, what is missing in the city construction is not the capital issue. Xinming is not short of funds nowadays. Xinming has abundant minerals, especially in the areas south of Wanghai City and Wanghai City, there are countless minerals of various types. Even a large amount of gold and silver mines were found near Sun City. These can not only meet Xinming's needs, but also feed back to the local area.

As for the stone, wood, etc. needed to build a city, the same is true. What Xinming does not lack the least is these. But the problem is that the population of Xinming is too small. Now the total population of Xinming is nearly 10 million, but among these ten million people, there are only one million immigrants in the Ming Dynasty, and the rest are Indians.

Although there are many Indians who have naturalized and actively joined Xinming over the years, there are even a certain number of naturalized Indian soldiers in the Xinming army. Many of them have even served as subordinate officers, and even several are intermediate officials.

However, compared with the Ming Dynasty, the population of Xinming is still too small. You should know that in the Ming Dynasty, only the capital cities such as Beijing, Nanjing, Ningbo and Hangzhou, the population is nearly one million, and even emerging cities such as Shanghai have a population of more than 400,000.

In Xinming, nearly one million immigrants in the Ming Dynasty were scattered all over the country, and several big cities were better. The most populous cities of Sun and Pingyi were only more than 100,000. Wanghai City was slightly smaller, at a rate of 100,000, while the remaining cities were as large as 30,000 to 40,000, and at least a few thousand. It is said that cities are not as good as towns.

More people were basically scattered in various manors and spontaneous towns. As for those Indians, except for the part that had gradually integrated into the Ming group of more than 100,000 early days, the other Indians had accepted the rule of the Ming Dynasty, but they still maintained the original tribe form.

This situation is inevitable. After all, it is impossible to naturalize all these Indians in less than ten years. It is extremely difficult to achieve this step now. According to the judgment of the Xinming Governor's Office, to truly naturalize all Indians, it is impossible to complete without the time of two or three generations, and it is impossible to ensure success.

Zhu Yicheng, who was far away in Beijing, also knew this. You should know that until the 21st century, many Indians living in North America still retained their own traditions, and many still failed to integrate into modern society, let alone the current era?

However, the Chinese have the strong ability to assimilate foreign races, which is beyond the reach of all other nations in the world. In addition, the Ming Dynasty has always promoted the same tribes in Yin, and the Ming people and Indians have similar appearances, which makes the Indians accept the Ming Dynasty relatively smoothly, which is also the reason why the notification was consolidated and partial naturalization was completed in such a short period of time.

Of course, there are also tribes among the Indians who are dissatisfied with the rule of the Ming Dynasty, or they still exist on the surface but are still the same in private. For these tribes, from Pan Mengyuan to Wang Dong, now, they are aware of them. Therefore, although there are no large-scale military operations against the Indians over the years, small-scale suppression and some wars have always existed.

Therefore, the shortage of the population base is currently a huge problem that plagues Xinming's development, but this problem cannot be solved yet. After all, the local population of the Ming Dynasty is not unlimited at present. Moreover, in recent years, the Ming Dynasty has expanded overseas, to Liaodong, northwest, and southwest, and to stabilize the area, population needs to be filled.

For example, in Liaodong today, in order to consolidate Liaodong, the Ming Dynasty even adopted a policy of filling the population of Liaodong with the North Korean population. From this point of view, as time goes by, the number of local immigrants to Xinming will show a trend of decreasing for a long time. According to Wang Dong's calculations, by next year, it would be great that the number of immigrants could exceed 100,000, and maybe this number would be smaller.
