Chapter 165: Plans from across the sky

Since Chuanchuan Group settled in Shengli Port, Yazhou has communicated several times through different channels, hoping to bring the land here under the government's control. As for the sign of achieving this kind of rule, Yazhou believes that it should be the patrol

The settlement of the prosecutor's office and the filing of the land deed.

In the opinion of the Executive Committee, the land deed is actually dispensable. The land occupied by the Crossing Group cannot be taken away with a piece of paper. However, the Executive Committee considers that the current relationship with Yazhou officials is not bad.

It is relatively harmonious. There is still a lot to be borrowed from Chongya Prefecture in terms of the introduction of population and raw materials. There is no need to lose face over such a trivial matter. Among the people who came with the inspection department last time, there was a small businessman who checked and registered the acres of land.

Well, the executive committee has just finished all the land deeds and land deeds.

Of course, the area stated in the land deed registered with the government is more than ten times less than the actual development situation here. The land deed also specifically states that 212 acres of land were cultivated by the Haihan people.

All were "fielded", so the grain tax that needed to be paid to the government was cut in half.

However, even if the grain tax has been cut again and again, the executive committee has no intention of turning it over to the Yazhou government. Anyway, the clerk who collects taxes and taxes is holding it in his hand, and when the time comes, he will be asked to make up any excuse.

Just get through it.

As for whether someone will come out to criticize this, the executive committee is not very worried. He Xi has done a very solid job in Yazhou, and every temple burns incense on time. If there is any trouble, the news about him may even be worse than

Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi are faster and more accurate - after all, those two spy agencies do not have the financial backing of the Executive Committee. One side uses prison to make people avoid it, and the other side adopts the method of bundling interests.

Attracting cooperation, you can tell at a glance which one is better and which one is lower. And the measures of using money to open the way are obviously very effective. For example, after the various real estate documents from Shengli Port were sent back to Yazhou, they were not even put on the Zhizhou master's desk.

After stamping and approval, it came down.

The Executive Committee has already sent instructions to the Cliff Office. If there are still people who want to stir up trouble at this stage, they can just send them to Victory Port. Anyway, they have already picked up a bunch of people from the Inspection Department, so they won’t mind picking up some more people.

.

As for outsiders like Li Nai, Tao Donglai is not afraid of exposing his strength in front of him. After all, the cooperation between the two parties is gradually deepening. If he wants to stabilize this cooperative relationship, it must be based on trust in each other's strength.

Above. The Executive Committee is very clear that merchants like "Fu Ruifeng" who can open chain stores across several provinces must be extraordinary, but "Fu Ruifeng" may not have been aware of the role of the "Haihan Executive Committee" before.

local control.

Sure enough, Li Nai had a meaningful expression on his face after listening to Tao Donglai's words. Li Nai was not a person who had never seen the world. A considerable number of his gentry friends in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were big landowners, with thousands of people at home.

There are many people with even tens of thousands of acres of land, but he has never seen anyone so confident and without scruples as Tao Dong said. The most important thing is that the landlord Tao Dong said is not himself, but "

"Haihan Executive Committee" is an organization that contacted Tao Donglai who had previously said "there are no landlords here", and Li Nai seemed to have understood something.

In the society of the Ming Dynasty, both ordinary people and royal relatives all regard land as the basis for their livelihood. Although Li Nai does not understand why these Haihan people want to publicize such valuable assets as land, it is obvious that this approach is in line with the Ming Dynasty.

The system is incompatible. Without landlords, there would be no gentry class. Without the gentry class, there would be no one to lead the people at the grassroots level. Wouldn’t this society be in chaos?

However, the order on the territory operated by the Haihan people is extremely good. It can be said that it is better than any place Li Nai has ever been to. Everything here runs accurately and rigidly according to the rules specified by the Haihan people, even the pedestrians walking on the road.

There are special regulations on details such as whether one should stay to the left or to the right. The role of the gentry of the Ming Dynasty seems to have been replaced by various rules that are invisible and intangible.

As for the Haihan people, Li Nai didn't think they were gentry. If he really wanted to make an analogy, they were more like the government here - building wharves and villages, transporting immigrants to move in, organizing land reclamation, making their own guns and cannons, and forming militia groups.

,Aren’t these things exactly what the government should do?

Of course, Li Nai would not at all think that the Haihan people had any intention to cause trouble or even rebel - how could a person with such an idea sell the fast guns and cannons he made to his rival's businessmen? This is just like the imperial court would not sell pig iron

It's the same as selling grain to the Tatars in the north.

Li Nai disagreed with some of the practices of the Haihan people in handling local affairs, but he also admitted that the Haihan people were indeed trustworthy partners. Not only did these people have strong armed strength, but more importantly, they were very particular about rules.

Stubborn preferences have even penetrated into all aspects of the local scene. And a partner who pays attention to rules is even more important than the high profits that each transaction can bring.

Seeing that the sky was starting to get dark, Tao Donglai and his party hastily ended their inspection tour of the farm commune and returned to Base No. 1. In fact, what they looked at was only the result of the first phase of development by the Ministry of Agriculture, and subsequent

Thousands of acres of land were reclaimed along the upper reaches of the Tiandu River. In addition to planting rice and cash crops, a small pasture was even built to carry out various poultry and livestock breeding.

Li Nai and his party can be said to be the most important visitors to Victory Port since the opening of the port, so the dinner reception they received was also the most grand. In addition to Tao Donglai and Schneider, Yan Chujie and Ning Qi were also present to accompany them.

The specifications are unprecedentedly high. Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that a trade order of more than 10,000 taels of silver was reached on the first day of trade negotiations. A big tycoon like "Furuifeng" has its economic strength and sales

The Internet is now the object that must be relied upon to travel through groups.

When these big talkers got together, they must be trying to get more information out of Li Nai. To this end, Tao Donglai also used his personal reserves and brought out two bottles of Wuliangye. He Qiang originally wanted to help him

The young master resisted for a while, but the few guys had a tacit understanding. They first convinced He Qiang who was getting in the way, and then slowly started talking to Li Nai.

Although Li Nai is also a person who has traveled around in society, but compared to these guys who were trained in the complex environment of later generations, he still seems a little younger. After a few glasses of wine, what he should say and shouldn't say is gradually forgotten.

They tricked them out. By the time the second bottle of wine was at the bottom, Li Nai had already begun to speak incoherently. Only then did Tao Donglai send someone to send them to the prepared barracks to rest.

As for these old gangsters, they didn't drink much at all from the beginning to the end. In Yan Chujie's words, "the battle was over before their mouths got wet." But now they have no intention of continuing to drink.

Some information needs to be sorted out quickly before it is forgotten, and then we can discuss how to conduct subsequent trade negotiations.

From Li Nai's drunken words just now, they gained a lot, one of the most important ones was "Fu Ruifeng"'s plan after purchasing these arms.

Tao Donglai said: "I originally thought they had some channels to sell these arms to the Ming army, but I didn't expect that they planned to resell them directly to Fujian."

"Calculating the time, this year should be when Shiba Zhi and Fujian Deputy General Yu Zigao, and the large merchant Xu Xinsu are having a lively fight, and the demand for arms and weapons should be very large. And according to the trajectory of historical development, next year Zheng Zhilong will

Will accept the Ming Dynasty's recruitment, and then the Shibazhi will soon have internal strife, and the chaos on the southeast coast will continue until 1635." Ning Qi also kept his mind clear, and immediately added the historical background.

"But since we are already here, we may not be able to fight for such a long time." Yan Chujie said with a smirk on his lips: "Our appearance should greatly improve the combat efficiency of this era. With the weapons we make, in history,

The naval battle will last for several days, and it may be over in a few hours."

"That's right, but we still have to pay attention to strategy." Ning Qi did not fully agree with Yan Chujie's optimism: "If Zheng Zhilong's family is the only one, it will not be of much benefit to us. Historically, by 1633

, Zheng Zhilong’s maritime military power has become the largest in the Far East, and even the Dutch can no longer defeat him. All merchant ships operating along the southeast coast must pay protection fees to Zheng Zhilong, which further strengthens his strength in disguise."

"Is there any record of Zheng Zhilong's military strength in history?" Yan Chujie asked with great interest. Since he has a golden finger that understands historical development trends, Yan Chujie is also very interested in knowing the strength of potential opponents in the future.

"At this stage, the Shibazhi pirate gang led by Zheng Zhilong has at least 30,000 people, and there must be 500 or 600 ships. As for after he defeated Yu Zigao and Xu Xinsu, his strength expanded even faster. By 1635, he

When Liu Xiang was annihilated, there were about 200,000 troops and a fleet of 3,000 ships, which was a very powerful maritime armed force even in the world." Ning Qi said with a sigh.

Yan Chujie also gasped when he heard this. Although it can be expected that the Time Travel Group in eight years will definitely be much stronger than it is now, it may not have a military strength of about 200,000 and a fleet of 3,000 ships. This number is really a bit high.

Scary.

"A hero who started from the sea cannot sit back and watch a force like ours rise in the South China Sea, just like we will not sit back and watch him grow in Fujian." Tao Donglai said in a deep voice: "We have to find a way to drag him down.

The speed of development is enough.”
