    Disaster relief supplies arrived in large quantities.

    In front of Ding Yunyi, there was no chaos at all during the disaster, everything was in order.  Especially after a large amount of disaster relief materials arrived, the victims became more confident that they could survive the disaster year.

    "Sir, eat a sweet potato." Su Yang Qiuyuan handed the sweet potato to Ding Yunyi.

    After taking a bite, Ding Yunyi repeatedly praised: "Sweet and delicious, we can grow more of this in the future. Hmm, sweet potato? I think it would be better to call it potato or sweet potato."

    "Potato? Sweet potato?" Su Yang Qiuyuan was startled: "Ah, this name sounds better than sweet potato."

    Ding Yunyi took a few bites of a sweet potato and said, "Su Yang, it's all your credit for not panicking in the face of the natural disaster this time. I think you are overqualified for staying here, and I am going to replace you with Qi Yumu, who has just arrived in Taiwan."  , I will transfer you to Golden Eagle City to assist Qin Yun. As for the eastern region, I plan to govern the area with Feng Changzhi."

    "Since your lord has decided, I have nothing to object to." Su Yang Qiuyuan was already prepared.

    Ding Yunyi raised his head and happened to see Romande Romandlan, and waved to him: "Mr. Romande."

    Who would have thought that when Romande came to Ding Yunyi, he would have a serious look on his face: "Mr. Ding, I must make a serious protest to you. I have pointed out many times before that excessive scale of reclamation will have a great impact on Taiwan's environment.  But as far as I know, you not only want to increase development here, but also plan to further develop the east side. This is a great harm to the environment, and I am very dissatisfied with your approach.¡±

    "Mr. Romande. I hope you can forgive me." Ding Yunyi was not angry, but said extremely sincerely: "I must increase the development of Taiwan. My group cannot stop. Otherwise, we will be eaten up by others.  . At that time, no one will listen to your opinions as patiently as I do. What¡¯s more, you will allow me to develop the east.¡±

    "That's different." Romande said hurriedly: "What I mean is that when you are in urgent need of wood, you can find a way from the east, but it is not to send so many new immigrants there. Mr. Ding, we can completely imagine that one hundred thousand  What kind of terrible damage will the human scale cause to the original forest and environment there? Oh, there will be more people coming in the future, right?

    "Yes." Ding Yunyi did not deny it at all.

    In terms of worldwide, Rande also belongs to the earliest environmental protection.  Ding Yunyi also knows that although there are no chimneys or rumbling machinery, human beings' thirst for land will also cause great damage to the natural environment.  But if I had to choose between development and protection, I would choose the former without hesitation.

    Ding Yunyi was silent for a moment: "As I just said, my reclamation of Taiwan will not stop, but will also increase. Mr. Romande, I respect your work and your attitude towards nature. But  Have you ever thought that before I governed Taiwan, the Folangji people were here, Zheng Zhilong was here, and the Ganlusi people were also here. They all ignored your suggestions and were squeezing as much as possible from Taiwan.  Every bit of benefit. For example, if I am defeated, then the newcomers will only sneer at your proposal, and I will still do everything possible to protect this place"

    He thought for a moment: "We can set aside some protected areas where humans are not allowed to enter, let alone development. I think you should be satisfied with this, right? This is the only thing I can do."

    Romande shrugged.

    Indeed, he once made a similar request to Governor Franco, but was ridiculed.  The arrival of Ding Yunyi gave him great support for his work, which he had never experienced before.

    Romande suddenly asked: "Sir, can you unify the country within ten years?"

    As soon as this sentence was asked, everyone was shocked and went crazy. This Thai man was crazy.

    Ding Yunyi was also startled: "Mr. Romande, please don't ask questions like this in the future. I am a minister of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty of the Zhu family. How can I become a rebel?"

    "Hey, that's a pity." Romande sighed: "In ten or twenty years, judging from the current development power, it will not cause fatal damage to Taiwan's natural environment. It is entirely possible here.  Be protected. I am really sad that such a beautiful environment will be destroyed"

    As he said this, he was quite puzzled: "The Zhu family's Daming? Why can't it become your Daming?"

    Ding Yunyi wanted to kick him. If these words were to be spread to the court, it would be a crime of beheading. People in the court must have thought that he had instigated Romande to say this.

    ?But several of his subordinates looked at each other, with something strange in their eyes.

    Fearing that he would say something weird again, Ding Yunyi hurriedly said: "Mr. Romande, I am very grateful for your prevention of drought, and I will also reward you. Now go and do your work. There are many things waiting for you."  you."

    As soon as Romande left, Ding Yunyi let out a long sigh of relief.

    There was suddenly the sound of reading loudly over there. Ding Yunyi was very surprised. He was currently fighting against the disaster, so why was there still someone reading?  Glancing at Su Yangqiuyuan, Su Yangqiuyuan said: "This started very early. I invited a few gentlemen to gather a group of local children to teach them how to read, read, and resist disasters. None of these children have joined."

    "Ah, okay, that's good." Ding Yunyi was overjoyed: "There are few people here who can read. It would be a great thing to teach them how to read and write. Come on, show me."

    Su Yang Qiuyuan led the way. After a while, he saw about fifty or sixty children sitting in the open air. An older gentleman was holding a book in his hand and was listening to the children reading loudly with his head shaking.

    "This is Mr. Ma who was specially invited." Su Yang Qiuyuan introduced: "The conditions here are difficult, and none of the gentlemen are willing to come. Even this Mr. Ma was only willing to come after I begged him repeatedly. He has been in a mood these past few days.  ¡±

    "Oh, why?" Ding Yunyi was a little curious.

    Su Yang Qiuyuan smiled bitterly: "Sir, look at this, there is not even a decent school, so it can only be in the open air. Mr. Ma thinks it is insulting to be polite, and he wants to quit school several times, but every time he is in front of me  I left it after begging hard"

    Ding Yunyi nodded silently: "Didn't you think of any other way?"

    "I thought about it." Su Yang Qiuyuan replied: "But most of the money was used for disaster relief, and I was really powerless. I also asked Song Poran, the only wealthy businessman in the local area, for help. He had several empty houses, which were very large.  It is used to store debris. I begged him to lend it to me temporarily, but he refused, saying that reading is frustrating. Reading means "losing". It is still negotiable if I want to use it for other purposes.  Reading is absolutely not allowed.¡±

    Ding Yunyi was a little surprised: "You are the highest official here, why can't you deal with a local tyrant and evil gentry? If not, send someone to kidnap him!"

    "No!" Su Yang Qiuyuan said sternly: "In my Ming law, there has never been a person guilty of refusing to borrow a house. If you want to govern a place, there is no law to follow, or you can change the law without authorization because of personal preferences. That is absolutely unacceptable.  . If everyone despises the law because of this, the place will be in chaos. What use is there for officials?"

    Although the words were rude, Ding Yunyi admired him greatly. This was exactly the official he wanted.

    ?????????????????? But it has violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty.  Robbery or suicide in private, even if it is a good deed, there is something wrong if you think about it carefully. If you are not upright, how can you be upright?  It despises the law itself.  How to get others to respect the law?

    On this point, Su Yang Qiuyuan did much better than himself.

    He pondered there for a moment: "Let's go, take me to that Song Boran's house."

    "Do you want to use force to deal with it?" Su Yang Qiuyuan asked.

    Ding Yunyi smiled: "Don't worry, if I want to use force, I won't be on your territory. I don't want to lose a wise and upright official like you because of this."

    Su Yang Qiuyuan smiled happily

    ?¡­

    Song Poran never expected that Taiwan¡¯s top military and political officer, Ding Yunyi, would come to his home.  What was even more unexpected was that Ding Yunyi actually opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Song, I am here in the autumn wind. I have come all the way, and I don't have any oil or water in my stomach. I came here specially to find some delicious food."

    When he heard that Ding Yunyi was so humorous and easy-going, Song Poran felt relieved immediately and smiled with a smile on his face: "Master Ding can come, Pengpi will shine, my Song family is also very glorious, and this is where you eat."  One year, Song also entertained me day and night.¡±

    "Okay, okay!" Ding Yunyi laughed, looked back at Su Yang and said with a smile: "Su Yang, am I not asking for a bribe?"

    Su Yang Qiuyuan couldn¡¯t laugh or cry. He had never seen such an adult before.

    Song Poran¡¯s family was quite wealthy, and a table of dishes was ready in a short time. There was a famine outside, but chicken, duck, fish and meat were all available here.

    Song Poran was very proud that Ding Yunyi could come to his home, even though he didn't know the real purpose of his visit. He deliberately took out a jar of fine wine from his collection.  Not only that, a separate table was also opened specifically to entertain Duan San'er and Ding Yunyi's followers.

     Ding Yunyi is extremely generous, drinks heavily, eats large pieces of meat, and is full of praise.  Su Yang Qiuyuan was worried, so he put down his chopsticks after taking a few bites.

    "Eat, eat." Ding Yunyi greeted him like a host: "In order to provide disaster relief, I heard that you didn't get a good night's sleep or a good meal. Mr. Song is treating you today, so you're welcome."

    "Ashamed, ashamed. How come you call me 'Master'? I really don't deserve this word." Song Poran said repeatedly: "In this year of disaster, Song really didn't do much to help me. Now that your Excellency is here today, I can't help you."  Just donate the last batch of food.¡±

    Ding Yunyi took a sip of wine: "Song That shopkeeper Song, do you think I'm here to ask you for food? Wrong, wrong. Although you have opened several shops, you are one of the top rich men here.  , but the financial resources are far inferior to mine. Although I have to transport the whole ship of food on the sea, I will never rashly change your mind, Shopkeeper Song."

    Song Poran was a little embarrassed and asked tentatively: "Then are you coming today?"

    "First, I'm really hungry and want to find something delicious." Ding Yunyi said slowly: "Second, I want to ask you to borrow a few rooms."

    Song Boran is also a smart person, and he understood immediately after hearing it: "Do you want to use it for those children to study?"

    Seeing Ding Yunyi nodding, Song Poran was in a dilemma: "Sir, everything else can be discussed, but this study To be honest with you, I, the Song family, are natives of Fujian and have not studied for several lifetimes. Later,  I finally became a scholar, but when I went to Beijing to take the exam, I was killed by a robber. Not to mention, my Song family has been in trouble ever since, either because of fire or business losses.  Zheng Zhilong, Master Zheng called for his family to move to Taiwan, and he did not allow his descendants to touch books anymore, so he reluctantly changed the rule of not reading, which is also the biggest taboo of my Song family. "

    Ding Yunyi understood that the Song family was really afraid of studying, and blamed all the misfortunes in those years on being a scholar. Although it was a bit ridiculous, people in this era were the most superstitious, and there was nothing to blame too much.

    But Su Yang Qiuyuan also said that the rooms in the Song family were the perfect place in terms of environment and location.

    Ding Yunyi rolled his eyes and suddenly looked Song Poran up and down, making Song Poran feel a little uncomfortable.

    After a long while, Ding Yunyi asked slowly: "Shopkeeper Song, the biggest shortage here right now is water, but has your home just suffered a small flood?"

    Song Poran was startled, and then turned pale with shock: "How do you know, Sir?"

    How did I know?  As soon as I entered your house, I saw a broken water tank piled in the corner. There was still a little water in it. It was obviously damaged.  Who is too full to break the water tank?  It must have been accidentally damaged. In this case, it can be called a "minor flood".

    "Don't ask me how I know about it first," he said in a pretentious manner, "just tell me if this is the case?"

    "Yes, yes!" Song Poran said repeatedly: "That's"

    "Don't tell me who broke it yet, let me figure it out." Ding Yunyi closed his eyes and muttered something. After a while, he opened his eyes: "It must have been broken by a relative or friend of Shopkeeper Song."

    "Ah, yes, yes, that was accidentally broken by the bad boy while playing."

    When he said this, not only Song Puran, but also Ding Yunyi's subordinates were surprised.  Sir, this is amazing, you can even calculate this?

    I¡¯ve never heard of adults having the ability to tell fortunes before!
