Chapter 48: The Riots of the Indigenous Descendants

Guo Shoujing, the assistant to the governor of the gnawing dog, was particularly satisfied with the group of natives sent by Captain Zhang Hongfan.

Although they are of the same race as the native Australian Aborigines, they are significantly stronger and more capable of understanding through labor.

This group of natives survived the brutal fighting, and Guo Shoujing certainly knew why their attitude towards labor was better, because if they did not leave their hometown, they might be eaten.

After Guo Shoujing heard that those things that eat people were true, he didn't dare to eat red meat, and only ate fish and vegetables.

It's really disgusting!

The Governor of the Dog Gnawing Dog was deeply understanding of the natives, and he said: "Lao Guo, have you ever been really hungry------ I was really hungry when I was a child, and I could eat any living thing I caught." ”

Guo Shoujing said angrily: "No matter what kind of hunger you become, you must not eat people------ what difference will it be from animals!" ”

The Governor of the Dog Gnawing sighed, Guo Shoujing, the man of science and technology, naturally has his own insistent cognition, which cannot be easily changed.

The Governor of the Dog Gnawing said, "Do you still want to open up the wasteland now?" ”

"Of course! You don't have to wait for the canal first------ horse-drawn cart can also pull the water tank, and you can grab another batch of corn and potatoes! ”

Governor Gnawing Dog said: "You, like Captain Zhang, have been recognized as having made great achievements, and in one or two more times, you will be free------

Guo Shoujing waved his hand and said: "Don't mention those first, if this place doesn't become the land of fish and rice, I won't leave!" It is a great sin to waste ------ God-given land!! It's really incomprehensible that there can be cannibalism in guarding such a place!! ”

The Governor of the Dog Gnawing Dog was happy in his heart, it's really good to have someone like Guo Shoujing in the world, wait, when you really want to leave, I will definitely let you see that part of Melbourne City!

Guo Shoujing is a serious person who never thinks much about useless empty talk.

For example, when he read the "Liuqiu Times", he became less and less interested in those comments, discussions, and so on, but he liked to read news that was dedicated to interviewing factories and workshops, and was especially happy when he saw that the production of the pot camel steam engine had increased, or the production of rose lathes had increased.

He often said that without the pot camel pump, the people here would not be able to cultivate so much farmland even if they had four hands.

If you don't use it to mill rice or dry it, you don't know how much food you're wasting.

The governor of the dog often asked him with a smile, then what do you say, is the royal family who built the pot camel machine great, or the great Kublai Khan, who killed the most people?

Guo Shoujing has always refused to answer such questions------ the method he adopts is, go, go to work!

This behavior pleased the Dog-Gnawing Governor, who thought he had captured a man's weakness.

The summer of 1280 passed slowly in the labor of the people, and when the autumn wind was approaching, the Governor of Gnawing Dog wrote a more comprehensive report to the lord of Zhang------ he was ready to develop the city of Melbourne during the winter leisure, because the development of the city of Beth City had entered a virtuous circle.

One or two thousand people come here every day, and every three days, a few hundred more leave.

Agriculture and industry are developing smoothly, and the scale of commerce is growing faster than expected, and even Hui merchants and Japanese merchants have come in.

Internal law and order problems are not great, and although there have been frequent incidents of fighting, the all-round management of the Liuqiu army has always been able to suppress lawlessness.

There is zero military pressure from the outside, and they are already an invincible presence in the southern hemisphere.

However, the Dog-gnawing Governor still has troubles.

There are too many problems between large, medium, and small businessmen.

Large and medium-sized businessmen are better, they basically do not interfere with river water: you run your farm, I run my ranch; You build your coal mine, I build my iron mine------- they have disputes over the boundary or the ore veins at most, in fact, such things are easy to do, as long as you keep a fair heart, it is easy to mediate according to common sense.

Small businessmen are annoying!

They either compete maliciously, or raise prices together, and also tell each other, and run to the governor's office to complain at every turn------ are all trivial things!

Especially those small companies and small businessmen with small loans, they tell each other about 90% of the total whistleblowing incidents!

What kind of company set up a bureau to let people take out loans, what malicious debt collection, what contract fraud, etc., etc------., the governor of the gnawing dog once spent half a day listening to a matter worth ten dollars!

Therefore, he wrote a letter asking Liuqiu Island to send administrators to manage justice, commerce, economy, and public security, which he could not afford alone!

Squadron Leader Da Weiming is very good, anyway, there is no problem with public security, if it is too strict, it will be too strict, who calls those people who are broken and settled too much.

He is trying to build an army naval corps in accordance with the requirements of Captain Guo Beyu------ why does the navy have a marine corps, but our army does not have a naval corps?!

They didn't have ready-made warships, so they first used ordinary sea ships as them, and they also pretended to set up artillery and aimed at the reef on the sea surface to bombard!

Otherwise, practice armed swimming in the Baisi River, and scare the black swans on the river to fly everywhere.

The Governor of Gnawing Dog knew that Squadron Leader Davidming had taken over several members of his family, bought pastures and farms, and concentrated on management------ everything was in accordance with the regulations, which was very legal and reasonable.

He also fell in love with this land more and more, maybe Guo Shoujing did it as a job, and he still had a deeper and deeper love for this place.

Fifteen days later, the owner of Zhang Island soon received a report from the governor of the gnawing dog.

After he saw it, he smiled and said to Wang Defa's family: "The kid who gnawed the dog has matured, and the construction of Baisi City is better than we imagined." ”

Wang Defa's family also looked at the report and said, "It's good! It seems that the Viceroy is very well adapted to the development of the colony------ he wants some professional administrators, which shows that it is developing fast! ”

"Well, we've established a colonial model, and the Pacific Rim is going to do that in the future------ everybody has to have a way out with us."

Wang Defa's family said disappreciatively:

"Don't you know? The New Oriental Group is very active now, even if we don't have our secret support in the future, I guess they will soon be able to explore the sea route to Europe------ if we don't organize people quickly, they will be the first to complete the round-the-world voyage.

In fact, as long as we provide basic guarantees, they will find a way out on their own. ”

Friend's words hurt Zhang's sense of superiority a little, but fortunately he didn't care.

"What do you mean by basic protection?"

"Lao Zhang, don't knowingly ask------ safety, freedom and fairness, any society, as long as it has these three points, even without the help of science and technology we bring, will become an increasingly prosperous society!

Sooner or later, real technological development is the product of security, freedom and fairness. ”

More than 200 years later, a descendant of New Zealand's aborigines wrote a book about how much damage the colonization of Liuqiu Island had brought to the natives, so much so that how many natives lost their lives------ which for a time caused riots throughout the country, with various theories and some people taking extreme actions.

However, it was soon discovered that the ancestor of the author was one of the first fifteen captives to be freed!

Someone sneered: "If the people from Liuqiu Island hadn't appeared, you wouldn't have been able to write this book accusing them------ do you say it's better to eat, or is it better to let your ancestors live?" ”

The riot eventually subsided.
