But the wedding day is always over, and Yu Xiaotian has always been tightened with a string, so that even during the wedding, he can't completely feel at ease.

So when the marriage was just over, he began to arrange a few things, although he saw that there was still half a month to go to the festival, but he still ordered Heitou to bring two boats, and a small team of soldiers, and ordered him to go to sea, to the east of Nanri Island, to Taiwan Island, and let him lead people to explore the terrain of the northern part of Taiwan Island and the local situation.

At the same time, Yu Xiaotian selected a person who had worked as a painter from the island, gave him a short training, taught him some things about drawing maps, and ordered him to follow the black head to Taiwan Island, according to what he saw, draw some maps and nautical charts, and especially instructed this guy to make sure that he must draw the coastal terrain clearly, and if he does a good job, he will come back and be rewarded.

There are many names in the history of Taiwan Island, a long time ago basically called Taiwan Island Liuqiu or Ryukyu, in the early Ming Dynasty, it was also called Dongfan, and some sea ships in the Taiwan Strait when passing through, to the high mountains in northern Taiwan as a mark to distinguish the course, because it is like a chicken coop, so it is called a chicken coop, which is also the reason why Taiwan Keelung got its name later.

In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, some people called Taiwan Dawan, Dayuan, and Taiwanese, but after the Wanli period, because the island of Taiwan "terrain is like a curved bow, and the floating sea is like a platform", it gradually began to unify the name of Taiwan Island and called it Taiwan.

Yu Xiaotian also arrived here, and gradually figured out this, the name Taiwan has become well-known to the world, so he no longer thinks about anything, and directly calls it Taiwan Island.

Hearing that Yu Xiaotian was suddenly going to send so many people to Taiwan Island to explore the terrain, the leaders inside the sea wolf immediately felt that Yu Xiaotian had a new idea.

Smarter people immediately felt that Yu Xiaotian had set his sights on the island of Taiwan, and seemed to be interested in wanting to run the island in the future, so some people were in favor and some were against, in short, the opinions could not be unified.

Those who are in favor have a slightly farther vision, thinking that Yu Xiaotian is paving the way for the future of the sea wolf in the future, and it should not be a bad thing to do so.

Those who oppose it think that Taiwan Island is a bit far away from the land, and there is a miasma, mosquitoes are rampant, and there are indigenous people on the island, which is not a good place for individuals to stay, and they now occupy such a good place as Nanri Island, and they can't go so far at all, even if they turn their faces with the government in the future, there are more islands in the sea, and it's a big deal for them to change places, so it will be more convenient for them to do things.

Yu Xiaotian insisted on his own opinion, and in order to unify the ideas of his subordinates, he took a day to draw a sketch of the coastal areas of Fujian and Taiwan in lime on a black wooden board, and summoned his subordinates to the meeting hall.

Yu Xiaotian strictly ordered the participants to treat this meeting as a secret, and not to leak the contents of this meeting without permission, so as to temporarily rot the matter they discussed this time in their stomachs.

Yu Xiaotian publicly expressed his worries about the future, although many people think that this place on Nanri Island is a good place, and now they are running it very well, which Yu Xiaotian thinks is inappropriate.

The most critical reason is that although Nanri Island is good, it is too close to the land, and it is still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, but it is only because of the government's negligence in management that it is now in this situation.

In the past, the reason why the government would use troops against the Shark Gang was because of this reason, in fact, the imperial court would not sit idly by and watch its territory become an enclave, this time the red-haired people occupied Penghu, and the imperial court was bent on expelling them, and did not hesitate to send Nan Juyi to Fujian to take charge of the expulsion of the red-haired people, in fact, it has already explained the idea of the imperial court.

It's just that so far, their sea wolves have maintained a delicate balance relationship with the local government for the time being, so they are safe for the time being, but what about the future?

When the imperial court runs out of troops against the red-haired people, once they win, maybe their self-confidence will swell, and some people will stir up trouble and demand the recovery of Nanri Island.

In this way, unless they have the strength to resist the surging official army, Nanri Island will not be a place to stay for a long time after all.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian thought that instead of waiting until that time and being forced to roll up and leave, it was better to take precautions and find a more suitable place for himself to settle down first.

Looking at the coastal areas of Fujian and Guangdong, although there are countless islands, there are not many islands that are really suitable for them, if they are too big, they will be recruited by the imperial court and the government, and if they are too small, the pattern is too small, which is not suitable for them to develop their strength.

The situation of Taiwan Island is different, although it is adjacent to the mainland, but it has not been included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, if the sea wolf can gain a foothold on Taiwan Island, then Taiwan Island has enough space for them to develop, in addition to the fact that the timber resources of Taiwan Island are very large, and the land is also very fertile, and there are countless wild things, such as deer skins and the like, are very good commodities.

So the island of Taiwan is a pretty good choice, as long as they can gain a foothold there, they will have a lot of room to move in the future.

Yu Xiaotian did not say the future of the Ming Dynasty in the future, the Ming Dynasty has already become a decaying edifice by now, it has reached the time of the wind and rain, it will not be too long, the Ming Dynasty will collapse in the internal and external difficulties, and the Tartar will enter the Central Plains, this matter is only known to him, a traverser, even if he says it, I am afraid that no one will believe it.

In short, Yu Xiaotian analyzed the advantages of their sea wolf occupying Taiwan Island from all angles, and clarified their current situation, and finally he dropped the small wooden stick in his hand and said to his subordinates: "Everyone! We have to look a little farther, although it is true that the miasma on the island of Taiwan is rampant with mosquitoes, but once we stand on our feet, the benefits are not something you can imagine! Therefore, whether you are happy or opposed, I am going to make an arbitrary move on this matter, and although I have no plans to move to Taiwan in a big way right now, this advance preparation is inevitable!

Blackhead, I'll leave this matter to you, I hope you can help me do it, remember, you go there this time, I don't need you to grab land for me now, as long as you inquire about the situation in the northern part of Taiwan Island, it will be a great achievement, whether we go there or not, wait until you come back! ”

After listening to Yu Xiaotian's tirade, the leaders who started were also silent, Yu Xiaotian had already made his words very clear, the advantages and disadvantages had been made clear, thinking about it carefully, they also felt that Yu Xiaotian's words were very reasonable, especially those who had followed Yu Xiaotian for a long time, and felt that Yu Xiaotian should be not wrong, if it weren't for Yu Xiaotian's always like to make long-term plans, they wouldn't have been able to grow to such an extent now.

Therefore, after listening to Yu Xiaotian's words, most of them changed their attitudes and felt that they should support Yu Xiaotian's decision, and only a few people still felt that Yu Xiaotian was a bit alarmist, and it was too unrealistic to do so.

And the black head belongs to Yu Xiaotian's hardcore cronies, Yu Xiaotian's words are holy decrees to him, and the king of heaven Lao Tzu did not speak to Yu Xiaotian, since Yu Xiaotian asked him to go, then he won't let a fart go, even if he can't spend the holiday at home, it doesn't matter, he took the order from the fart, and then ordered a team from the barracks, and immediately went to sea in two boats, heading towards the east.
