The girl's matter seems to be a small matter, but the fluctuations behind it are far from being as simple as they seem. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Regarding this, Li Yuanqing did not dare to slack off, and instructed Qu Minqiu in detail, asking her to keep an eye on this matter.

At breakfast, Li Yuanqing specially instructed Zhang Yunniang to let her and Qu Minqiu work together, and they must put this matter under control.

Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu both knew that this matter was very important, and it would even directly affect the next pattern of Changsheng Island, and the two girls naturally didn't dare to play petty anymore, and solemnly accepted the matter.

In normal times, Li Yuanqing usually accompanies the back house for dinner.

The main thing is to drive the emotions, and everyone has a chance to meet every day.

This is also the disadvantage of having too many women.

Otherwise, you won't be able to see your man for ten days and a half months, or even a year or a few years, and you will have a ghost if your relationship is good.

But at this time, Changsheng Island was busy with various affairs, Li Yuanqing went out for basically one day, and when he came back every day, it was basically late at night, and it was not realistic for the whole family to have dinner together, so Li Yuanqing changed the time for the family to eat in the morning, about 8 o'clock.

At this time, the children are also awake, and the time for the ladies to 'go to work' is just right.

Because of the limited conditions, and in order to maximize the use of manpower, Li Yuanqing's back house in these industries on Changsheng Island, in addition to hiring the shopkeeper, buddy, and 'waiter' on duty, if conditions permit, Li Yuanqing will also arrange one of his wives and concubines to go to the store to help and sit in the town.

Coming from later generations, Li Yuanqing knew very well that women must give them these serious things to do, otherwise, their energy will have nowhere to vent, and there will be ghosts if the back house is not on fire.

Of course, all of this must be under the control of Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu, and Li Yuanqing must give enough respect to their two daughters.

With Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu in charge, Li Yuanqing doesn't have to worry about him being cuckolded, everything is under reasonable and orderly control.

With Li Yuanqing's force, all shops and shops on Changsheng Island, in addition to the basic shopkeepers and guys, will basically hire some female 'waiters'.

First, it is to create jobs, and secondly, in these service industries, women's affinity is really not much stronger than that of men, which is pleasing to the eye, and will also make the transaction much better.

And with the role models of these women, Li Yuanqing has also been thinking about continuing to improve the status of women on Changsheng Island, and even recruiting women into the army.

For example, the paramedics.

Although the auxiliary system of Changsheng Island is developed, and the Changsheng battalion has basically achieved semi-firearms, this era still belongs to the era of cold weapons and hot ~ weapons, and every war, even if it is the Changsheng battalion, will have great casualties.

In this state, the addition of some female medical staff will, to some extent, mediate the feelings of the wounded soldiers, and women are significantly more attentive than men in medical care.

The addition of female doctors and nurses and the improvement of treatment will inevitably enhance the centripetal force of Changsheng Island even more, and firmly surround the core of the island around Li Yuanqing.

Whether it is at this time or in the future, even if he has foresight, Li Yuanqing is not an immortal, and it is impossible to cover everything.

He has always believed in the fact that "when you can't control the big picture, you must first be yourself." ”

From Quang Ninh joining Mao Wenlong's team to now establishing a foundation on Changsheng Island, Li Yuanqing has always taken this sentence as his motto.

In fact, the effect of this sentence is quite good.

After having breakfast with a group of wives and children, Li Yuanqing came directly to the official hall.

At this time, a group of major military officers, Shang Lao Liu, Ma Steward, and the heads of the civil affairs departments had already arrived.

This is also a new rule established by Li Yuanqing after returning to the island this time.

On Changsheng Island, although Li Yuanqing is highly respected and has single-handedly established the foundation, he has been on the expedition for more than half a year, and imperceptibly, some affairs on the island, especially between people, will inevitably have some fluctuations.

The control of personnel is even more important.

At this time, even if he was very busy, to resettle the people of Zhenjiang, to deploy defense and many other tasks, but Li Yuanqing still decided to come to a morning meeting every day, everyone to meet, make specific arrangements for the task, and familiarize themselves, even if the time is very short, it is more conducive to Li Yuanqing to grasp the mood fluctuations of everyone.

Thus, the overall situation is firmly in control.

Seeing Li Yuanqing coming, everyone saluted.

Shang Lao Liu said with a smile: "General, there are fewer tasks in military affairs today, and more in civil affairs. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the sand table on the side, "Around Nanxinkou City, more than 20,000 immigrants have been settled. In the southwestern plains, more than 10,000 people were settled. There are more than 10,000 more, and they are in urgent need of resettlement. However, General, it is up to you to decide whether to place them on the hillside to the west of the city or to the plain to the southwest. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and nodded, signaling that Shang Lao Liu was in urgent need.

Shang Lao Liu continued: "General, colleagues, if it is most suitable to resettle the immigrants to the beach plains in the southwest, it will save us a lot of manpower. But this time, it is bound to occupy a lot of fertile land that has been cleaned up. If it is placed on the western slope, it will not occupy the fertile land. It's just that this matter is time-consuming and laborious, and it will inevitably take a lot of effort. ”

When everyone heard this, there was a lot of discussion.

Li Yuanqing's brows also furrowed slightly.

According to Li Yuanqing's original intention, the main purpose of relocating the people of Zhenjiang City to Changsheng Island regardless of the cost is to increase the output of Changsheng Island, especially in agriculture.

Changsheng Island is the seventh largest island in China, and the resource reserves can be said to be quite abundant, not to mention that the population of Changsheng Island at this time is only a little more than 100,000, that is, one million, or even two million, and it is more than enough to survive.

Not to mention, there are also Nakajima and Nishijima.

However, the problem now is that there are restrictions in transportation and other aspects, and many areas in the west, northwest, and southwest of the island are still dense primeval forests, which have not been effectively developed.

At this time, although the manpower was sufficient, there were no excavators and large cranes in later generations, and if you want to build large-scale construction, manpower and animal power are indispensable.

Although Changsheng Island was full of materials at this time, it was seriously lacking in animal power, especially cattle, horses, and mules, which had great strength and could do great work.

Although Li Yuanqing still has nearly 3,000 war horses at this time, these treasures obviously can't do these rough jobs.

At this time, hearing Shang Lao Liu's question, Li Yuanqing was also a little worried for a while.

As Shang Lao Liu said, if you want to save trouble, it is easiest to settle immigrants in the southern plains, but don't forget that this is an agricultural society, far from an industrial society in later generations.

If ordinary people want to farm, they can't run dozens of miles away, right?

Even if you go out in the morning, I'm afraid it's going to be dark when you come and go, so what else are you doing?

Steward Ma said: "General, colleagues, according to the meaning of the humble position, it is best for us to implement the original plan." The gentry and wealthy merchant groups in the emigration will move to the area near the city, and the common people will still disperse and move where they have land according to the original plan. This is indeed difficult in the short term, but in the long run, it saves time and effort. We don't have to do it a second time. ”

Duan Xiliang nodded, "What Ma Ye said is good. However, if this is the case, it will take a lot of time. It is very likely that this year's spring ploughing will be delayed. ”

Because of the cold climate, most of the crops in Liaodi are ripe once a year, which is far from being comparable with Jiangnan, let alone Hainan.

This time, spring ploughing is particularly important.

Once missed, the food, drink and Lazar of these people in the coming year can only be paid by Li Yuanqing.

This is a heavy burden that Li Yuanqing can hardly bear.

But otherwise, the fields that can be cultivated can only be in the nearby area, and there are very few of them, and the farmers cannot effectively share the land, which can easily breed bad hidden dangers.

Guan Canghai said at this time: "It's difficult, it's always difficult." I would also recommend going ahead of the original plan. Our Changsheng Island has a well-developed fishery, even if we don't grow crops and grow some kinds of vegetables, there is not much of a problem. This year is a difficult year, but next year is a good start. ”

Xu Heizi also said: "General, I also agree with Ma Ye's opinion. Along the way, what hardships have we brothers not suffered, how can we be afraid of this time? ”

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly, "Since everyone has no opinion, then let's implement it according to the original plan." Brothers, although the affairs are complicated, as long as you brothers work together, you will definitely be able to get through the difficulties! ”

"Yes!"

…………

The morning meeting ended, and everyone went to work.

Li Yuanqing left Guan Canghai and Xu Heizi behind.

Coming to the 'parking lot' outside the gate of the official hall, Li Yuanqing said: "Brother Guan, Brother Xu, have you ever heard of such a thing as sweet potatoes?" ”

"Sweet potato? What is it? Xu Heizi looked at Li Yuanqing suspiciously.

He's a Northlander, and he's obviously a little confused.

Guan Canghai was stunned, "General, are you talking about something that is round, has dark eyes, and looks like a radish?" Taste soft, sweet, and tastes good? ”

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Canghai, have you seen this thing?" ”

Guan Canghai hurriedly said: "General, I am a little uncertain about my humble position for a while. In the early years, when I was in the south, I had seen and eaten this thing in Fujian and Jiangnan. I heard that these things were obtained by Xu Ge Lao from a few Fujian businessmen, and they were promoted in Nanjing for a period of time, and many people used to plant them. But what the current situation is, it is not good to say what the lowly position is. ”

Li Yuanqing was overjoyed.

Sweet potatoes are sweet potatoes.

This kind of thing is delicious and easy to feed, the key is that the yield is extremely high, and it doesn't need to be carefully cared for.

In his memory, Li Yuanqing vaguely remembered that it was the famous Xu Guangqi who popularized this crop, but due to the limitations of the times, its strength was far from enough, and it did not become a lifesaver in the late Ming Dynasty.

In fact, if sweet potatoes could be popularized in Shanxi, Shaanxi, including Henan and Huguang, the rebellion of the displaced people at the end of the Ming Dynasty might not be so serious.

"Canghai, Kuroko, this matter is really a lifesaver! In this way, Canghai, Kuroko, you will now set off for Nanking to find the seeds of these sweet potatoes. The sooner the better, and the more the merrier. As long as this is done, I will definitely give you a great credit! ”

Guan Canghai and Xu Heizi were stunned.

They never imagined that their general would put so much thought into such an inconspicuous looking crop.

But Li Yuanqing spoke, and the two did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly called the soldiers to pack up and go straight to the dock.
