Others nodded one after another.He agreed, and Li Mu also felt that doing so would be very effective.After all, this solves a large part of fiscal and taxation problems.And Zhao Guo itself can become a financial trading point, which is a kind of progress for Zhao Guo itself.
A certain colony of Chu State in the south.
"Sir, we have already agreed on the Yue people over there." A neatly dressed boy said to a middle-aged man with a smile.
"It's all agreed?" The middle-aged man asked with his hands behind his back.
"It's all agreed. We will give them fifteen guns, 150 bullets, and some iron tools, as well as some salt and tea. As long as they have these things, they are willing to give us the land east of the river. Hexi is the demarcation line. Neither of the two families is allowed to make decisions about the other," Yan Zi said.
"Hmm." The middle-aged man nodded.
"Well done, in this way we can get more food, we can bring more people, and they can spend a long time." The middle-aged man nodded and said.
"It's just that there are still a lot of Yue people over there. Although we have the upper hand in weapons, they still pose a threat to us." Xingzi said worriedly.
"This is why I asked you to negotiate. We have only been here for a few months, and our ships can only come once every six months on average. If this continues, we will replenish people, weapons, and various supplies. It's much worse. If we can seize the opportunity of renting samples, rely on trade alone and expand our land without fighting wars, we can have food, and with food, we can feed more people. Those Yue people said Maybe he will come to our place too." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"It's easy to talk about having land. These Yue people, when our strength expands, we will be able to defeat them." The middle-aged man said.
Like all the Chu people who have just opened up the land here, because the Chu people rely on merchant ships for transportation, their ships can only bring extremely limited supplies each time. These materials cannot expand the strength of the Chu people in a short time. So the Chu people thought of buying and exchanging trade methods to obtain land. The Yue people are local aborigines. They all occupy very fertile land, but these lands have not been well developed. The aborigines have farming tribes and some Tribes that rely on picking and hunting, in short, they are extremely primitive and backward.And the Chu people have what they want, so the two sides have trade needs, but the local indigenous people are not xenophobic from the beginning, on the contrary, they think that these people from the sea are worthy of attention, They need a lot.So the two sides reached a trade.
"Sir, I have an idea, after we understand these Yue natives, why don't we buy some people, or provoke some internal struggles within the tribe, so that we can weaken each other while increasing our strength. When we gather more and more strength, they will become weaker, and our land will expand a lot." Yan Zi suggested.
"Well. Very good, your suggestion is very good." The middle-aged man said.
"We can plant more sugar cane in more occupied places. With this thing, we can make more sugar. This thing is more expensive in the north. Moreover, with this kind of thing, Merchant ships will be more willing to come to our place, which is good news for us." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"So, shall we plant sugar cane this year?" asked the boy at this time.
"Grow more food, and we can stabilize with more food. Sugarcane must be planted, not necessarily a lot, but there must be. This is an important means for us to attract merchant ships." The middle-aged man said.
Body 2087 has a message
"This island will be ours from now on." A Korean said loudly on the beach holding a Korean flag in his hand.
"Yes, it's ours." The Koreans who went ashore shouted happily. Although the rowing made them feel very neat, they still endured, because they landed on a larger island, which shows that the island has already Become their trophy.
"We want to build a fort here. Everything on this island is ours, not only this island, but also this sea area. These are all ours." The Korean holding the South Korean flag was excited Speaking of.
"Yes. Others can build Zheng Island and Ping Island, and we can also build our own island. Head, let's choose a name, just like a woman giving birth to a baby, you have to choose a name." Others said one after another.
"Yes, give it a name. We can't occupy such a big island without a name." Others also raised their weapons and said.
"What's a good name?" asked the leader.
"This." Others rubbed their heads and thought.
"It can't be called Gou Mingdao either, the name is too low-level." A big man with beard said.
"You man, you can't speak well. In my opinion, it should be called Huadao. You look at the island, and there are flowers everywhere. How wonderful it is." A thin and small man said drooling.
"Stop talking. You guy, you are not a good person. You are full of thoughts about your good friend, Huadao. Why don't you occupy an island by yourself and call it Huadao, and work with your good friend." Others circled around one after another.
"Haha. Everyone laughed.
"I see, brother, let's do this." At this time, a young man stood up and said.
"My eldest brother's surname is Song. I think he should be called Song Dao." The young man suggested.
"Song Dao. Well⊥it should be like this." Others raised their thumbs and said.
"Yes." The leader nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's have a big meal on Song Island today, and then build our fortress on Song Island. We will officially become the owners of Song Island in the future." The leader shouted loudly.
"Okay." Everyone applauded.And the island they occupied is officially today's Luzon Island.The Koreans are speeding up their occupation of the islands.
The border between Yan and North Korea.The Yan army only established a small number of border posts here.Because their main forces are all deployed in North Korea, the defense here is extremely empty, and the Yan army can only symbolically deploy reserve military forces here as a defensive force.
"Who is it?" A soldier at the end of a group of Yan troops who were ordered to patrol shouted vigilantly, holding a musket with a bayonet attached.
"Huh la la." The other people walking in front put down their guns when they heard the strangeness behind them, opened the or door, and prepared to take aim.
"Come out, if you don't come out, I will shoot." The soldier shouted loudly.He was a new soldier, so to speak, he was caught on the spur of the moment.Perhaps it was because he had never been on the battlefield, which made him too nervous.Any movement made him very sensitive.
"Don't, don't shoot, your own people, your own people." A Yan Army soldier stood out from the grass, and that Yan Army soldier raised his hands high.Only then did other people see the reason for the strangeness.
It can be seen from the tattered military uniform that this is a soldier of the Yan army who has fled.Returning from the battlefield, he is a deserter.No weapons were carried, no personal military equipment and nothing.The expression was still very panicked and nervous, and he looked like a deserter.
"Oh. Put down your guns, don't be nervous, be nervous." The leader was a staff sergeant.It's a veteran.Been a soldier for 20 years.He didn't even marry a daughter-in-law, so he was an old bachelor.
"Everyone put down their guns, don't be nervous, and you don't need to panic either. We are all our own people." The sergeant came over at this time and pressed down the muzzle of the recruit's musket with his hand.In order to prevent the recruits from being too nervous to shoot indiscriminately.
"Close the fire door, don't get angry. This thing is not a joke." The veteran ordered.Others closed the fire door one after another.
"Don't be afraid, we are all our own people. Brother, you must have come back from the Korean battlefield." As he spoke, the veteran took out a biscuit from his military uniform pocket.
"Here. Here are the biscuits. You are hungry." The veteran said and threw a biscuit to the other party.The deserter looked at the veteran nervously.
"Eat, eat." The veteran said.The deserter looked at the veteran, then at the others, then quickly picked it up and ate it.
"Ahem." Because he ate too fast, the deserter choked on the biscuit.
"Slow down. Don't worry, there are more." As he spoke, the veteran took out another biscuit and handed it to the other party.At the same time, he took his water bottle and handed it to the other party.
"Come on, brother, drink some water, these biscuits are too dry. For us Yanjun, all the above are giving us cheap things, things like canned food, don't expect extravagant things. We don't have any." The veteran said with a smile.
"I know, brother is worried that we will catch you and kill you." The veteran said.
"No, we will not do this. To be honest, I have seen you like this a lot. To be honest, I have been a soldier for 20 years, and I have also been a deserter. There is no way. The people above took us to die.』 Don't worry. After you eat these things, go to the north. Going to Liaobei is really not possible, but it is also possible to go to Mengzhou in the east of Qin State." The veteran said.
"Hurry up and eat." The veteran said.
"This. Thank you uncle for saving your life. Thank you uncle for saving your life." The deserter immediately knelt down and thanked him.
"Thank you. It's not easy." The veteran said.
"Who told everyone to eat this bowl of rice." The veteran said helplessly.
"This soldier has many difficulties. Who knows who will become the soldier?" said the veteran.The other soldiers nodded after hearing this.
"Here, these things, you can eat on the way, escape if you can." The other soldiers handed some rations to the deserter.
"Thank you. Thank you." The deserter cried and knelt down.
"Get up, let's go quickly, we didn't see it, there is no such thing." Other soldiers said one after another.They have seen a lot of things like this.Could it be that they can still shoot at their own people? They can't do such a poisonous hand.
Because they know that they themselves are also soldiers, and they have their own reasons for being soldiers, and they have no choice but to do so.Everyone has their own difficulties. Considering such difficulties, other people can understand. After all, we are all the same person.
