Her Majesty's Dragon Boat arrived in Yangzhou, the first stop in the north, in the afternoon of the same day.

At this time, Yangzhou's prosperity is still there.

However, it can only be the last afterglow, because Yang Qing's salt industry reform will be carried out at the same time after the completion of the agrarian reform, and the new salt system is the state-owned salt company.While it is true that this system is modernly criticized, the salt must be cautious, and the best way is for the state to control it, at least the wholesale power must be owned by the state.

More importantly, it can be done...

Salt can also be eaten.

But for the sake of people's health, it is still as much as possible!

Once the salt industry reform is completed, the salt merchants who act as wholesalers under the current system will completely withdraw from the historical stage, and the salt industry will replace them, but they must wait until the public field law is completed.The reason why salt attracters and salt merchants has emerged is that the state's administrative system is not enough to support the state-owned salt companies, and it is necessary to rely on these merchants with franchises to ensure that the salt flows from the production area to all corners of the country, and the interests will drive the salt merchants to complete this process.If the state wants to achieve a salt business, it must also be able to replace the role of salt merchants, that is, the state control must spread throughout every village, and the imperial and public estate system can do this after the completion of the public field law.

And, of course, traffic.

Steam ships have solved the problem of reverse currents of inland water transport to the maximum extent, and new national roads and highways plus freight wagons have solved short-distance transportation by land.

And the railway.

The slowness of his railway repair does not mean that he is not repaired.

Railways still had to be repaired, especially the on-thrill that were being built.

And also communication.

The next cable will also begin, which will let him know in the shortest possible time where supplies are lacking.In short, all these supporting systems have been completed before they can start to reform, otherwise the reform of the salt industry will certainly cause confusion in supply.

So the salt merchant can have fun for a few years.

“It’s still fun!Don’t you know how many salt merchants have been pitted by your railroad plans?”

The Queen said.

“I feel more and more happy about my mood!”

Yang Qing said.

Then the whistle sounded outside, accompanied by the rising sun, and the huge bright wheels on the left and right turned again, pushing the canal's river water and driving the ten-foot-long flat-bottomed boat slowly leaving the dock.

The sound of the mountain sounded again.

Among the people who had been sent away for Her Majesty the Queen, the salt merchants, large and small, shouted the same shouts, not knowing that His Majesty the Queen and the Protector in the cabin had sounded the countdown bells for them.At the same time, the second Ming ship also left the dock, the emperor of the great Ming on the deck, now Zhu Yi, standing silently in the morning light, looking at the bustling city that is about to be far away...

He also rang the clock.

Behind him is the king.

Fu Wang was in a good mood, and he was very happy about the long trip, mainly without being scolded in the north, but during this time he was cursed by the squire.Although the gentlemen also knew that he was a decoration, a fury of these guys had to find someone to vent, and they could not dare to find Yang Qing to vent.

Who is he looking for?

He is a book of the Ministry of Land!

On the fourth ship is King Tang, who is still in military uniform, and the rank has been promoted to governor because of the victory of Burma.

At this time, the East appealers had surrendered, after all, they did not surrender on the Ming army shelling the East, the defeat of Ava decided their fate, those Tussi are scrambling to surrender the Ming army and happily for the advance of the royal division.In this case, the East appeal can only surrender, otherwise without the Ming army, these Tusi alone can blood to call, and finally they will surrender in exchange for the gold seal of the Burmese king.However, to His Majesty the Queen, including Yangon, Awa, and a large area of land, the Irławaddy River shipping was completely controlled by the Ming Army, and the northern part of the country, which was originally annexed by it, returned to the direct line of Daming, in short, the East called for the beginning of a happy colonial life.

Such a victory, of course, would be promoted to the commander of the war zone, and Tang Wang not only received the rank of supervisor, but also served as the newly established Governor of Zhaonan after the end of the palace.

Daming established the province of Zhaonan to manage all the colonies currently acquired in the South China, although the name was used by the Japanese army, but it had to be said that the name of the Japanese is still very in line with the aesthetics of the protectorate.

The provincial capital of the province of Zhaonan Province is also under construction in the city of Zhaonan.

That is Singapore.

But the province is not governor-mandate.

Not all commanding management.

Instead, like Governor Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan, the establishment of Governor Zhaonan to lead all military and political affairs in Zhaonan Province, all the garrison and immigrants in Zhaonan Province, including the vassal states, must all accept the jurisdiction of the Governor of Zhaonan.

After all, it is too far.

This remote colony, which was far from home, had to give the chiefs the greatest power.

Officials can be appointed on their own.

At this moment, Tang Wang's expression is also very heavy, after all, he does not know what this is, even if it is the old ancestor when the Yan King, there is no such power, he is also very afraid, even if he does have a clear conscience, but this post is too special after all.

Of course, he likes what he wants to think!

Her Majesty's fleet sailed away from Yangzhou, accompanied by the prostration of the people on both sides of the strait, and all the locks along the way were opened and cleared before they arrived, so they quickly passed through the high post and Baoying and arrived in Huai'an in the evening.The next day followed by another departure, but the speed slowed slightly and then stopped at the parking lot that night, and arrived in Xuzhou on the afternoon of the fourth day of her departure from the southern capital, and arrived in Jining on the fifth day.

“Is that your ideal?”

Her Majesty the Queen stood in the north of Jining City, in a vast farmland, speechless looking at the busy scene in front of her eyes.

This is a cotton field.

But unlike the traditional small piece of farmland, this cotton field is more than four miles long, almost no head at a glance, and the cotton interval is very wide, but they all grow very well.The cotton in the flowering ring period shows a well-nutned deep green, one flower bell pointing to the sky, and the few scattered pinks are cracked.

But Her Majesty is not looking at cotton, but in the people who work among them.

A low-slung bonnet, holding a hoe bowing his waist, sweating for cotton hoe, they are naked, only wearing trousers below, but to see these trousers are very new, it should be in order to cope with the Queen's inspection just issued, after all, the Queen's inspection of a group of ribs is still too exaggerated, but also has been soaked in sweat.No one dared to look up, all bowed their heads to work hard, no one dared to be lazy, because there were still a few supervisors riding on the horse between the cotton ridges, carrying a flange on the shoulders in one hand, carrying a disc-and-disced whip in one hand, and looking at them while walking.Occasionally, the work of the abscesses was immediately reprimanded by them, so that they all knew that the visit of His Majesty the Queen did not dare to be too barbaric, otherwise the whip in their hands should be pumped away, and from the performance of those nuns, they must have done so on weekdays.

“This is not what I teach them, it is driven by interests, and as long as it is profitable, the plantation owners will come to this point.”

Yang Qing said with a hint of relief.

It is clear that Shandong businessmen have made excellent example in this regard, this area is such a cotton field, as the previous confrontation during the artificial empty no-man's land, after the end of the confrontation period, Shandong businessmen immediately look at here.The original inhabitants of this land could not have returned, and they had already lived happily in the imperial farms around the south, and would never return to this land that had always been shrouded in the shadow of the Yellow River.So the merchants of Shandong came to lease land and land to build a plantation, including some retired officers of the Ming Army, and also took a look at this area.The end result is to turn the original no-man’s land of Dongpingjin Ning Heze into a cotton plantation, these people themselves invested in the purchase of bunnies, repaired water conservancy facilities, bought new pumping machines, and learned the big plantation economy without a teacher.

This does not need to be taught.

The benefits will drive themselves to this point.

They have even begun to abandon the relatively inefficient cattle cultivation, buy Sharma from Yang Qing's horse farm on Jeju Island, and then use this giant horseland, which is much more efficient than cattle.

As for the bonds, it is very well fed.

Open a little wasteland in the vicinity, and then plant the ground melon corn, etc., is enough to feed these bonuses, in fact, these bonuses now eat better than they are in their hometown.In this era, the lowest level of the country is absolutely impossible to eat, not to mention the many, that is, it is difficult to really eat enough, that is, it is difficult to really eat enough.After all, there is no real food crop in the country except for rice, and the plains of their terrain can grow rice, but now Japan is the third most populous country in the world.

20 million levels.

It’s really impossible to eat!

Otherwise, until the Second World War, the Japanese are still very short, in addition to genetic factors, mainly from the generations of hungry ah!

But when Daming slaves, they are absolutely able to eat, after all, the plantation owners rely on them to make money, slaves are spent to buy, Daming system does not exist the second generation of slaves, tired to starve one has to buy one again.On the contrary, they should not only work better, but also work as long as possible, and even if they are injured, the plantation owners will treat them as much as possible.

Of course, you can't do it without throwing it away.

But that's nothing.

At this time, the country itself is also like this, for the old and unable to work relatives, they are also directly behind the mountain to fend for themselves.

"Sire, the nun is really good labor, hard work, easy to discipline, especially less to eat, although the strength is small, but the cotton does not need to be too strong."These years, the small people have also made some money by relying on the bonus, which is the wise leader of Her Majesty the Queen and the Protector of the Country, and it is said that those who oppose the law of the public field are not aware of the good intentions of the protectors.The little people did not understand it before, but after planting cotton here for a few years, it suddenly became clear that the protectorate seemed to be a bad judge, but in fact, the protector of the country was really forethought, and it was for the long-term sake of our gentry.

The plantation owner in the back accompanies a smiley face.

“I’m glad you understand that!”

Yang Qing patted him on the shoulder and said.

And the protector also sighed with emotion.

"The gentlemen all say that I am not good to them, but I am really wrong in this regard, and it is not good for me to do this to myself, and I am nothing but for the long-term peace and security of the Ming Ming."As long as the great Ming is long-lasting and secure, you still take care of the rich, live a good life of clothing and jade food, and continue to be like that year, what good days will the gentlemen have?

The land has.

The wasteland here has been reclaimed, and the wasteland of Liaodong Liaxi, the king of Gui last year in Liaxi planted potatoes an mu of thousands of pounds.

The cultivation of Liaodong Liaoxi is finished and the river is Guanxi.

Our navy found a large island on the south side of Zhaonan, which is larger than our thirteen provinces, all of which can be reclaimed from the plains of the fields, and it can be said that there are many things in the land, as long as you are willing to reclaim and go to the colony of Daiyou, that is, millions of acres.As long as we can have long-term peace and stability, as long as everyone can be fed, the rest is just to let the farmers go out as soldiers to occupy one piece.They give you to open the territory, to catch slaves, you follow behind the plantations, open mines, factories, make money while supporting them to continue to open the territory, and keep catching slaves for you.

How good are those days?

Why do we hurt each other in such a small place as in the 13 provinces as in the past?

The outside world is vast!

Countless lands, countless minerals, countless slaves, countless markets, you arm the farmers with plantations and factories, you build weapons, conquer one country, and conquer a piece of land.Force them to open their markets to us, to seize them as slaves, to bring their wealth all over the world, you are still rich and enemy, how much property can the richest people in the past have?How many of the richest people are in the world today?In the future, I can guarantee that the rich with ten thousand silver coins are not rare!

This is the real future!”

Yang Qing said.

“The protector, how is the settlement of the colonial land?”

Another planter said.

"Private, the future of Daming's provinces will be separated, all the land in the inland provinces is state-owned, but in the newly developed land set up frontier provinces, such as now the province of Zhaonan is the frontier province, in addition to the establishment of Kansai Province, the frontier province of land private, who open the land is who, who found the minerals is who."

Of course, you have to pay taxes.”

Yang Qing said.

“Essence, absolutely tax!”

The planter, or the slave owner, patted his chest.

The ignored queen looked at the faces of these guys without a word, and it was clear that she, as the queen of the empire, was leading Daming to an unprecedented prosperity.It is just that this great life has gone further and further on the path of Xie's evil empire, completely destroying the values of life she has cultivated since childhood.
