Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Although Yang Xun's words seemed to be asked casually, they pointed out an extremely serious issue, that is, the management of Liuqiu in the future.  At the beginning, Li Min provided the logistics, with Lu Qing and his men as the vanguard, integrating the forces on Liuqiu and establishing a unified Liuqiu Island, and now this goal has been achieved.

    However, although Lu Qing is a talented person and was an old minister of Nanliang, he is only a military general after all. He is not good at administrative matters, and the people around him have little administrative experience, so the management of Liuqiu is still the same as that of the pirate den.  The system they used was not only irregular, it could even be said to be very chaotic. After all, the place was so big that many problems were beyond their capabilities. Moreover, it was not the fault of a superior person to hand over all the military and political power of Liuqiu to one person.

    "With your uncle's advice, how should your nephew manage Liuqiu?" Li Min asked with a smile after hearing this.  Although he had already prepared for this issue, he still wanted to hear Yang Xian's opinion.

    "You little naughty boy, you have already made up your mind, but you try to trick me again." Seeing Li Min's reaction, Yang Xian immediately understood that his worries were in vain, but since his nephew wanted to hear it, he simply told him what he was thinking.  Let¡¯s talk about it first.

    Thinking of this, Yang Xun sorted out his thoughts and then said: "First of all, the current management method of Liuqiu is definitely not good. We must establish formal government agencies and other institutions, and then divide Liuqiu into several county-level areas.  In order to facilitate management, in addition to the local development of Liuqiu, the first is the issue of food and population. I don¡¯t need to explain the importance of food. The land on Liuqiu Island is fertile and the climate is very suitable for crop growth, so as long as someone is willing  Farming and food production are definitely not low, so in the final analysis, it is still a question of population, and these people are not the slaves you kidnapped. They must be Han people who agree with you. There are too few Han people on the island, and there are simply too few Han people on the island.  You cannot meet the requirements, so you must carry out a large number of immigrants, but where should these people move from? Will your father agree to let you immigrate from the Tang Dynasty?"

    Although Yang Xian talked a lot, apart from the formal establishment of government agencies, the most important thing was to raise the issue of population. After all, the prerequisite for development requires a large population to support it. Talents are the most important part of this society. Without  Population can do nothing.

    After hearing this, Li Min smiled calmly and said: "My uncle didn't know something. When I proposed to give up the throne and prepare to expand overseas, my father also gave me a lot of support. One of them was the issue of immigration. He promised that I could  The prerequisite for emigrating from anywhere in the Tang Dynasty is that it cannot be forced, so what I need to do now is to first set up a clean and efficient administrative agency, and then develop the island's economy and make it a well-known and prosperous place.  To attract more people to settle here!¡±

    Li Min's words reminded Yang Jian that his nephew was a well-known God of Wealth. Wherever he went, he could become a cornucopia. Although not everyone in this world lives for profit, at least he must  Most people have a profit-seeking nature. If Li Min can really turn Liuqiu into a prosperous place like Dengzhou, it will indeed attract many people to settle there.

    "This is a good and gentle method, but Liulang, I am very curious, how do you want to turn Liuqiu into a cornucopia that everyone yearns for?" Yang Xian said with a smile.  He is a dying man, and it can be said that he has seen through everything in the world, but he always feels that he cannot understand Li Min, his nephew.

    "Hey, there are actually many ways to develop the economy. The most important thing is to adapt to local conditions. For example, although Liuqiu is mountainous, there is a lot of arable land, so we can develop the planting industry first. For now, we mainly focus on sugar cane planting. In addition, the island  Forests are spread all over, which can provide a large amount of wood. In addition, it is surrounded by the sea and has countless excellent ports. Therefore, shipbuilding and maritime trade will also be the focus of future development. For example, Keelung is a very excellent port city.  It¡¯s just that there is still a lack of shipbuilding industry. I have sent people to Fuzhou to recruit shipbuilding craftsmen. We will first build a shipyard here in Keelung. After the foundation is established, we will slowly develop to other places!¡±

    After listening to Li Min's words, Yang Xun frowned. As soon as Li Min finished speaking, he immediately asked impatiently: "What about food? Sugar cane can be used to make sugar, which can be exchanged for a lot of money."  , but sugar cane cannot be eaten as food after all. If something unexpected happens, the people on the island can't starve and wait to die, right?"

    Although Yang Xian¡¯s words were not clearly stated, the meaning was very clear. After all, food was related to the stability of a local political situation. It couldn¡¯t always be transported from Datang, right?  Although Li Min was the prince of the Tang Dynasty and Li Shimin's favorite son, if he put his lifeblood of food in the hands of others, he would always feel like a lump in his throat.

    "Don't worry, uncle, I have already considered the issue of food, but it is different from the traditional planting in the Central Plains.?I also plan to use plantations for planting, and although Liuqiu Island will also set aside some food-producing areas, I only require that the food output can feed the island for the first half of the year. For other shortfalls, I will come from other places.  The place was transported, but it was not the Tang Dynasty, but two places that were not yet under my control.  "Li Min said with a smile.

    "Where?" Yang Jian asked in surprise.

    "Lu Song and Lin Yi!" Li Min stretched out his finger and said with a smile.

    "Hiss~" Yang Xun took a breath after hearing this. He didn't expect that his nephew had such a big appetite. Before Liuqiu Island was completely controlled, he had already begun to set his sights on the more distant Luzon and Linyi.  .

    "Liu Lang, do you know how big Luzon and Linyi are? They are not as big as Liuqiu. Both Luzon and Linyi have unified countries. If you want to control these two places, you must do a big fight.  Prepare for battle!" Yang Xun obviously doesn't believe in Li Min's strength. After all, they are two big countries. It is a bit unimaginable to destroy them based on Li Min's current strength.

    "Hey, uncle, don't be anxious. I didn't say I would kill them now. After all, I know my own strength well. I will never act rashly before I am fully prepared. I have to deal with it first no matter what.  Liuqiu has begun to develop, and I still have a lot of things to do in the north, which will take some time to deal with, so I gave myself enough time to accumulate strength." Li Min said with a smile.

    He also knew the consequences of biting off more than he could chew, so Lu Song and Lin Yi were only on paper. If Yang Xian hadn't asked about it today, he would never have mentioned it to others.  Moreover, Luzon and Linyi are not just used as food production areas.

    Yang Xun also nodded after hearing this. Indeed, Li Min's primary goal now is to develop Liuqiu. As for the food problem, he can grow part of it internally. If it is not enough, he can also buy it from Datang.  Moreover, in the early stages, the population of Liuqiu will definitely not grow very fast, so relying only on the food on Liuqiu Island is probably enough.

    "Liu Lang, you are indeed a thoughtful person. You think about everything very carefully. It's a pity that I won't see that day." Yang Xian patted Li Min on the shoulder and said with emotion.

    Yang Jian thought that he had seen through life and death and had nothing to worry about except his daughter, but he didn't expect that after hearing Li Min's ambition today, he suddenly wanted to see with his own eyes how far his nephew could develop?  It's a pity that God will not give him any more time.

    Seeing Yang Xian mentioning this matter that he didn't have much time to do again, Li Min's face also felt sad. Although Cai'er was not interested in their topic, she kept listening. Now when she heard her father's words, Xiaozui immediately  As soon as I flattened it, it looked like I wanted to cry.

    Li Min took a look and hurriedly changed the topic: "Uncle, the matter between Linyi and Luzon is a bit far away. Let's talk about the matter at hand. Liu wants to establish an efficient and clean administrative agency. I really think about this."  I don¡¯t have much experience, so I wonder if my uncle has any good suggestions?¡±

    Yang Xun also saw that his daughter was about to cry. When he heard Li Min's words, he immediately reacted and smiled and told some suggestions that he had thought of. He also recommended Chen Gong, his first counselor, to Li Min and told him  He is a master in administration. If he helps Li Min, he will definitely save a lot of trouble. Li Min nodded in agreement, and at the same time made up his mind to find an opportunity to summon Chen Gong alone.

    Just a few days after the conversation between Li Min and Yang Xian ended, Wang An, whom Li Min had been waiting so hard for, finally came back.  As Li Min's first think tank, Wang An asked him to go out in person this time, and he was there for such a long time. The main reason was to take people around Liuqiu Island. Of course, this was not a sightseeing trip.  Instead, they took the Liuqiu map provided by Lu Qing and other local forces and conducted an on-site survey to see if there were any errors. By the way, they also had a general understanding of the local terrain, soil quality, climate and other issues.

    These things don't seem to be difficult, and they don't require Wang An, the Prince of Qi's Mansion, to make a trip in person. However, this is related to a key issue in Liuqiu, which is the division of administrative regions. After all, it is so  Naturally, a large island cannot have only one central government with full authority to manage it. It must be divided into several counties. However, many places in Liuqiu are deserted and no one can provide local information, so we had to send someone to go there in person and put them on the map.  The boundaries of each administrative region are roughly marked on it as a reference for Li Min's division.

    Wang An came back with his people and all the corresponding information. Li Min could finally start to carry out some major military and political reforms in Liuqiu. Not only did he re-divide the various administrative regions, but also the administrative and military institutions of Liuqiu.  There will also be great adjustments. Although many of them are based on those of the Tang Dynasty, there are also many innovations, especially those in the Tang Dynasty.It was some of the institutions and measures that Li Min came up with that made people like Yang Xian, Wang An and Yan Bei confused.  (To be continued)
