Before the arrival of the seventh year of Longqing, Xiangshan and Nanyangwei Shipyard stepped up the construction period and hurriedly sent the Liujia warship to the donkey race, which was considered to have gathered the Liuding Liujia gods.

Half of the twelve large ships cruised in Manila Bay, and the other six patrolled the islands with troops, led by Bai Yuanjie, who had come all the way from Nanyangwei.

Approaching the New Year's Pass, Guangdong's maritime affairs are safe, because of the deployment of the generals, the Nanyang Army has been on the expedition for more than half a year, but the handsome Bai Yuanjie has been watching the sea in Weigang for half a year, and he can't sit still for a long time.

Although the war was over, he also had to come over to see Chen Mu's results with his own eyes, on the one hand, this was this, and on the other hand, he brought Chen Shuai's other brother-in-law, Yang Zhaolong.

Yang Zhaolong did not come empty-handed, on the order of Chen Mu, he hired, bought, and exchanged more than 1,000 skilled miners and mountain chiefs from Sichuan, with the statue of the kiln god, and the tools, mules, and horses to land on Minduluo Island to take soil and prospect.

He was accompanied by Lou Qimai and Chen Mu with 17 trainees borrowed from Lu Bona, the head of the Navy's Wutang Mountain, who Chen Mu deprived them of their vacation, saying that he would give them a two-and-a-half-month 'extracurricular internship', which was actually free labor to allow them to survey and map the terrain on Minduluo Island.

As long as Yang Zhaolong came out of the mine, the students under Lou Qimai had to draw the terrain well, and at the same time, Chen Mu also sent more than 500 banner troops to Minduluo Island to learn these professional skills from them.

The mineral deposits and forests on the Luzon Islands, Chen Mu wanted to explore them island by island, and the topographic map also had to be drawn island by island.

As for development, Chen Mu didn't plan to worry about it himself, he believed that when these things were sent to Zhang Juzheng's desk, the elder who held the authority of the empire would settle all difficulties.

But the matter of paying taxes on Qingtian mu was much slower than Chen Mu imagined, because it was Hai Rui who did it.

Hai Rui's progress in clearing the fields and arranging the households is far slower than when Zhao Shizhen did this before, but his political performance is ten times higher.

The banner army that worked with Hai Rui has been expanded to 200 people, and nearly 3200 people have been used - for this stubborn and weird old man, Chen Mu can be said to be obedient in his professional field, and Hai Gangfeng and his subordinates have completely interpreted what democracy is.

It's that Hai Jui doesn't like the flag army, and the flag army also looks at Hai Jui unpleasantly.

Starting from Hai Rui taking two small flags all the way north, Chen Mu received the progress of Tian Mu Rending, and at the same time, he also received the process of Hai Rui and the flag army complaining to each other.

Hai Rui can't stand the fatigue and frizziness of most of the flag army, God can see mercy, if Chen Mu is holding the flag army with his hands are tired and frizzy, there are not many people in this world who can enter Hai Rui's eyes.

In fact, the flag army could not stand Hai Rui's harshness, smoke rose from a mountain without a road, and several families on the mountain had never come down the mountain in their lives, because there was no way down the mountain. If it was Zhao Shizhen who was doing the work, he would have skipped them over, and at most he would have recorded the sentence 'There is smoke on the top of a certain mountain'.

Hai Rui is not like this, he let the flag army climb the mountain, and he wants to count the population and acres on the mountain.

The flag army does not climb, because it is too difficult to climb up, Hai Rui does not care about the flag army, the sixty-year-old man takes off his official uniform and climbs by himself - who is not afraid of this?

If he has a good guy, can the banner army that follows him still survive?

As Hai Rui went farther and farther all the way to the north, and the people around him were dismissed by him again and again, Chen Mu finally got annoyed after making up for the staff again and again, and simply sent 700 people for Hai Rui to pick, but now there are only 200 people left.

Some were directly bombed back by Hai Rui, and some fled back by themselves and cried and kowtowed outside the Nanyang Yamen, saying that they would not do anything with Hai Rui, even if Chen Mu came out with military law, he would not go back - how could Chen Mu really slaughter the old soldiers under him who were proficient in the battle formation, and smoke a military stick.

In this way, Hai Rui divided Luzon Island, which Chen Mu estimated to have only 100,000 households, according to a rough estimate, into three prefectures and 22 counties, and compiled more than 60,000 households in the Yellow Book in the north of Manila alone, set up 4,880 li chiefs, and elected more than 10,000 village elders and more grain chiefs.

It's no wonder that Hai Rui's progress is slow, this old man's favorite thing is to try cases, and every time he sets up dozens or hundreds, he orders to convene the people to be tried in the field.

There is a reason for this number, in fact, most of the time it is carefully checked how many people are under the local tribal leader, and then the Lijia is set up according to the law of the ancestors. The first trial was held by the local chief, to see if he had treated the people under his rule unjustly, and if so, he was directly detained and escorted to Manila.

Because of this incident, Chen Mu followed Hai Rui's flag army to reduce dozens of troops.

That is, the people of the local leader either dare not fight, or the combat power that dares to fight is too weak in front of the chestplate of the bird, otherwise the old man Hai's grave will be evergreen.

But Chen Mu supported Hai Rui very much, he just felt that this kind of thing was too cumbersome to hand over to Zhao Shizhen at the beginning, if he did it himself, it was estimated that it would be more thorough than Hai Rui.

Overthrowing the old grassroots rule and using the system of lijia and township elders will lose the ability to rule the township and cause the so-called 'imperial power is not lower than the county', but this is also the easiest way to achieve the division and rule of the township.

But Hai Rui is much more upright, and those tribal leaders with good reputations were all recommended by Hai Rui to Chen Mu, saying that in the future, after choosing a good name and practicing Chinese, they can be the county chief bookkeeper, county officer, and patrol inspector.

Chen Mu looked at the letter sent by Hai Rui and smiled, and said to Xu Wei: "Hai Gong understands what Chen meant, he didn't even cut eight grades for others, and Chen originally wanted to pick some people to be the magistrate." ”

"There are pros and cons." Xu Wei was concise and to the point, and it could be seen that Xu Maniac also agreed with Hai Rui's approach, and said with a smile: "Hai Gong is not easy, he has risked his life many times, and he is worthy of the name of Gangfeng." ”

"It's Chen who thinks that Haigong is not to blame at all for the fight, think about it, how do the local people feel when they look at them?" Chen Mu spread his hands and said: "People originally lived well in the wilderness, but suddenly a person who couldn't understand what he said came to climb the mountain and cross the sea to measure his family's land, and said that he would have to pay taxes to the king every year in the future." ”

"This is also Suleiman, otherwise let the family hand over the taxes to us, I'm afraid they will directly start an army."

Speaking of this, Xu Wei came to his senses and said, "Chen Shuai really doesn't plan to find Suleiman to intercept taxes?" Don't lie to Xu, if you ask him for taxes, Luzon will be rekindled, and everything he did before will be a wedding dress for Luzon. ”

Although Chen Mu had promised many times that he would not withhold taxes from Luzon, Xu Wei still had some faith in the noble nature of the donkey man, for fear that he would force Suleiman to rebel.

"No, no, these grain chiefs will hand over the taxes to the magistrate in the future, part of the magistrate will be used to build roads and bridges for irrigation, and part of it will be sent to Manila.

Chen Mu paused his fingers on the tea case, and said sincerely and profoundly: "We are doing a good deed, cleaning up and paying taxes for the acres of land in Luzon, if it is something that people can't use, ore or something, let's just mine it, this money and grain Luzon King must be spent, I am not stupid, can I rob it from others?" ”

"I'm just going to make some suggestions on how to spend money and food." Chen Mu stretched out his hand into the distance, raised his eyebrows and stroked his hand to his chest, and said, "Don't care if he thinks about Jiuchi Roulin or a rich country and a strong army." ”

"Chen has orders."
