Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Min from Prince Qi's Mansion in Keelung City was very happy. Originally, the arrival of a cold snap had greatly affected the agriculture in Taipei. This made him think that Taiwan's economy would be affected this year, but what he didn't expect was that,  The immigration work went very smoothly, and with the arrival of the immigrants, large tracts of barren land on the island of Taiwan were reclaimed, and sugar cane and rice were soon planted. Although the yield in the first year will certainly not be high, it is still possible.  Given the huge increase in land, maybe this year's agricultural output will not decrease, but may even increase.

    While Li Min was rejoicing that Taiwan's agricultural economy had been affected, Jin Shengman, who had just finished sorting out the documents, suddenly said: "Your Highness, the current immigration work has been sorted out. Do you want to listen to it now?  "

    "Read it!" Li Min said in a very elegant manner. "Please search Piao Tian Literature. The novels are better and updated faster!"  Since Jin Shengman became his little secretary, it has indeed saved him a lot of effort. For example, like today, he doesn't have to use his hands and brain to analyze, he can only wait to hear the report.

    After hearing this, Jin Shengman cleared his throat and said immediately: "Now the immigration officers in various places will report the number of fugitives they have calculated. Because these fifty immigration officers are all sent to the southern region, this data only represents  Considering the number of refugees in the south, as for the north"

    Jin Shengman hadn't finished his report when he was interrupted impatiently by Li Min: "Keep it simple, just report the total number, and keep other aspects of the situation as simple as possible!"

    Jin Shengman was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted and spoke again: "The total number of refugees they counted this time was 2.36 million, but because the people we sent out could not cover all the areas in the south of the Tang Dynasty,  . Coupled with some missing refugee villages, the actual number of refugees must be much larger than this number. According to preliminary estimates, it should be between five million and seven million."

    When it comes to this.  Jin Shengman paused for a moment, and then continued: "According to reports from immigration officials in various places, among the 2.36 million refugees, 1.2 million of them are willing to immigrate. The main reason is that  Even in poverty, a considerable number of the remaining 1.1 million people have the intention to immigrate, but out of caution, they are still waiting and watching. However, as long as the news of the first batch of immigrants spreads, I believe they will soon  His intention to immigrate will soon be confirmed."

    Li Min was overjoyed when he heard that the first batch of people willing to immigrate reached more than one million. Taiwan now has hundreds of thousands of Han people. If there are more than one million immigrants, the whole island will be affected.  Its population is nearly two million.  With these two million people, n¨¤me's various industries on the island can be fully developed. Only when Taiwan's local industry develops can it better expand outward.

    But Li Min was not happy yet.  Jin Shengman continued: "These 1.2 million immigrants are only the first batch of immigrants. It is initially estimated that if we want to send them all to the island for resettlement, it will take at least a year. This is still preparation in all aspects."  It's enough. And there are no unexpected circumstances, otherwise the situation will be longer."

    Jin Shengman paused again here, and then said: "In addition, among the first batch of immigrants, only a small part of the family migrated, and most of them were just a family to explore the road. And when these people feel  After living a good life in Taiwan, they will definitely spread the news back. More immigrants will arrive by then. According to preliminary estimates, two to three million immigrants will come to Taiwan in the next three years.  , but in this way, Taiwan¡¯s population will soon be saturated, and if more immigrants from the mainland arrive, they will not be a driving force for Taiwan¡¯s economy, but will become a burden to Taiwan.¡±

    Li Min was still very excited when he heard Jin Shengman's previous report, but when he heard the last few sentences, his face darkened. Although he knew that the population of Taiwan in later generations reached an astonishing more than 20 million, that was because  At that time, Taiwan was completing modern industrialization, and most of the food and various materials needed could be imported from Tongguo. However, with the current conditions in Taiwan and the current land and sea transportation situation, Taiwan will definitely not be able to accommodate a large population of two to three hundred.  Wan is estimated to be the limit, and any more will become a burden on the government.  Moreover, this population limit is the result of including the land in Taichung and Taitung counties that are still in the hands of natives.

    "It seems that we still need to open a new immigration point!" Li Min was silent for a while, and then he said. At the same time, he turned to look at the wall on the side of the bookstore, where a large shiji¨¨ map hung, and his eyes  It happens to fall in w¨¨izhi, Luzon Island.

    When Jin Shengman saw Li Min's eyes falling on Luzon Island, she couldn't help but sigh.  At first, Li Min instigated a war between Silla and Baekje, and then took the opportunity to annex both of them.  At first, she still couldn't figure out why Li Min would attack the two of them?  bijing no matterIn any case, Silla and Baekje are both poor countries, and they are basically out of luck. Moreover, if one of them fails, it is likely to cause resistance from the people of the two countries, and the invaders will pay a huge price for this.

    However, as she served as Li Min's secretary for this period of time, she slowly learned some things that she had not been able to learn before, which made her slowly understand that the ambition of the King of Qi in front of her was very high.  No longer limited to a certain place or a certain interest, the real reason why Li Min destroyed Silla and Baekje was because they unfortunately blocked Li Min's path.

    After following Li Min for so many days, although Jin Shengman is still not fully aware of Li Min's ambitions, she does have a rough idea, and she also knows that Li Min can be indifferent to other things, but for his ideals and ambitions, everything  Everything that stands in his way will be cleared away by him, and Silla, unfortunately, happens to be one of them.  In addition, Baekje and Japan are also in the same situation, but now it will soon be the turn of Luzon, which is not far from Taiwan.

    As expected, it was just as Jin Shengman expected. At this moment, Li Min suddenly asked: "Shengman, how is the situation in Luzon now? Is there any chance to take action?"

    Thinking that Luzon would also fall into Li Min's clutches with Ziji's Silla, Jin Shengman couldn't help but sigh with sympathy, but still answered: "Half a year ago, Luzon was still  It is under the rule of an alliance of seven tribes, but the control of these tribes is only in the eastern and central parts of Luzon. As for the western coast, Yijing is gradually controlled by the Han people. In addition, in addition to Manila, there are also sea coasts.  Merchants established some small settlements on the island, but because of official support, the scale was not large, let alone compared with Manila."

    Hearing this, Li Min nodded. Although Luzon is not far from Taiwan, because he had been busy with Sanhanzhou and Japan, most of the troops were stationed there, and there was no spare power to invest in Luzon.  , so the development of Luzon Island was mainly done by the private sector, and at most there was a semi-official slave-catching association involved, and this was how the city of Manila was built.

    At this time, Jin Shengman continued to say: "But just half a year ago, the balance between the seven major tribal alliances was broken, and a new round of conquests began between each tribe, and it has not yet completely ended.  , but now four of the seven major tribal alliances have been wiped out, leaving only three tribal alliances. Although the three alliances are still fighting among themselves, because the losses of each are not small, this melee should be  It's nearing the end. If something unexpected happens to me, they will give up soon and then rest and recuperate until they have the strength to fight again. In the end, there will be a winner who will unify Luzon Island."

    However, Li Min frowned after listening to Jin Shengman's words, and asked with some confusion: "Since it is a melee between seven major tribal alliances, and four tribal alliances have been destroyed, there should be many prisoners of war, but I h¨£oxi¨¤ng  Remember, the volume of slave trade in Taiwan has not increased much recently. Is this the reason?"

    After hearing this, Jin Shengman smiled and said: "This is mainly due to two reasons. The first reason is very simple. Last time the Slave Catching Association discovered a continent overseas, and His Highness personally ordered that the slaves be given the name of Australia."  The continent is named after it is said that gold mines were discovered in Australia, so many people went there to dig for gold, including many wealthy people. In addition to sending their confidants there, they also bought a large number of slaves, and these slaves  They were all bought directly from Manila, so many slaves from Luzon were shipped to Taiwan."

    After hearing this, Li Min immediately understood that the way from Taiwan to Australia was through Manila. In addition, slaves there were cheap, and the slave-catching team did not need to risk sending slaves there, so they were naturally willing to get rid of them there.

    After explaining the first reason, Jin Shengman frowned a little and said in a more serious tone: "As for the second reason, it is somewhat disadvantageous to us. This is mainly because there are three remaining in Luzon.  Among the tribes, two tribes in Yijing found that as the war progressed, the number of people they could control became less and less. This also led them to consciously increase their own population, so some of the prisoners of war they captured also  They are unwilling to be sold to the slave-catching team, but stay in the tribe. Even if they cannot join the army, they can still engage in agricultural production within the tribe. This is also the main reason why the slave trading volume has increased significantly after this melee.  !¡±

    Hearing the news, Li Min also frowned, but soon relaxed. Luzon was originally positioned as a slave-providing land, but now this slave-providing land has actually reduced the output of slaves.  The existence of meiyou is necessary, and it can just be freed up to be used as his next immigration place!  (To be continued.)

    ps: What, Laoyu just discovered that the light of the great god has come out, everyone can get one when you have time!
