In the early 18th year of Zhenguan, Zhang De was a little confused as an engineering dog. In Lao Zhang's opinion, there was no reason. He couldn't grow so many land in China and had so many markets in China that he had not developed. Why should he go out and go into the market?

Just because of the legend of gold and silver, or the Tongshan Iron Mountain?

This is unscientific.

Of course, Lao Zhang spread the map onto the table, and the scene was still very spectacular. The Nanhai River Estuary area was more or less stuck on the Tang people.

From the Honghe Delta in Jiaozhou, to the Mekong Delta in Zhenla, Linyi, and then to the Chao Phraya Delta, wherever there are excellent ports and land, ships built in the eighth and fourteenth year of Zhenguan.

This is a very complex era. The Tang people were not a marine nation with small countries and few people. They had extremely high requirements for sea navigation, so there were generally flat sand ships near the sea. However, for profit, adventurers from the north and south were willing to board the flat-headed pointed-bottom ship...

This is an era when the number of sailors is far from enough and the elimination rate is at least 20%. Twenty deaths of one hundred sailors are much more terrifying than the battlefield.

Even so, no matter whether it is a horse or a boat trip, you must go up to the bottom of the north and south.

"So that's how Guangzhou Ship can occupy land in Linyi, because it is because it helps to scare away the enemy of Wendan's country in Wuwen Mountain? It also helps to strike the Zhen La people out of Luolun River?"

"The Fan, the lord of Linyi, has always admired the Celestial Empire. He paid tribute in the Sui Dynasty in the Former Sui Dynasty. In the fourth year of Wude, he also sent envoys to pay tribute. Now the largest fire bead in the Daming Palace is the Fan, who paid tribute."

"It's that South China Sea Fire Bead that looks like glass?"

“That’s right.”

"This Linyi is indeed docile. Guangzhou people occupy at least 30,000 acres of land this year. Although they were invited by Fan to help suppress bandits, these 30,000 acres of land are all connected together, which is very fertile."

"The countries in the South China Sea are really strange. Zhen La could not defeat the bandits, so I asked the Tang people to help. Lin Yi could not defeat Zhen La, so I also asked the Tang people to help. What is this? If it were the Turks, I would probably have to go against the Tang people first, or I would never have asked the Tang people to go."

"It's just a small country, what do you know? Dingkou is not as good as a state in China. Such a lord is afraid of living a life worse than a county magistrate. How can he care about this? If he is prosperous and prosperous, he will be afraid, but in this situation, the Han Dynasty is noble and the Hu is cheap, so he will definitely have his own."

In the Tang Dynasty, I naturally felt that the countries in the South China Sea were just getting into the brain, which allowed the Tang people's business fleet to occupy the territory. Isn't this arguing with the tiger to open the door to thieves?

But the Tang people naturally didn't think they were really the thief. There was also a saying, "A child was swaying through the market with gold." It's not? One day Linyi lost his national fortune, and there would be no conscience that would be unwilling to be dissatisfied. Even though the Fan family of Linyi has always been docile, it's all their business?

At this time, the routines of the Tang Dynasty were different from each other, especially Guangzhou and Jiaozhou, which was particularly prominent in the southern country. Li Daoxing was also very hard-working for his "son". In addition to vigorously recruiting doctors, he also set up a branch of Tongren Medical School in Jiaozhou. He worked hard almost all year round. He did this kind of thing, and there was no shortage of manpower. Is there any Jiaozhou man?

Since stabilizing the situation in Jiaozhou, Li Daoxing has spent a lot of money to invite Wang Taishi's disciples to survey and map. There is currently a data that not many people know in China, and only six officials or above can know. For this data, Li Daoxing also specially asked Zhang De to help submit a letter to Changsun Wuji. Then Changsun Wuji gave it to his brother-in-law.

Li Daoxing spent more than a year and came to the conclusion of more than 20 million mu of acres of arable land in Jiaozhou. According to this data, at least half of the rice fields in Wuhan are currently in Wuhan. Jiaozhou's farming time is quite early and can be planted in February. The rice seeds used are quite unique, which are Linyi early rice. Because Linyi is also called Champa or Champa, this early rice is also called Champa rice.

This kind of rice seeds that can be harvested in two months enables Jiaozhou to have three quarters a year. In the past few years, water conservancy investment was not large, and there was no advantage in the grain output of Jiaozhou and Guangzhou. However, Li Daoxing smashed the coffin book out to pave the way for his "son" and vigorously "invest" Jiaozhou. Jiaozhou's grain output, whether in total or per mu, has exceeded Guangzhou.

The population gap between the two states is huge and there are also a large number of sugarcane fields, but the growth in grain output in Jiaozhou is very surprising compared to Guangzhou.

Since Li Daoxing took control of Jiaozhou, water conservancy projects include Jiaozhou dam similar to Dujiangyan. Because of the construction of Jiaozhou dam, Jiaozhi City was rebuilt here and after submitting a memorial to the court, the county Jiaozhi was established. Therefore, Jiaozhou dam is also called Jiaozhiyan.

After the water was divided in Jiaozhi County, the lower reaches of the West Dao River became smoother and had great navigation capabilities. By the 18th year of Zhenguan, the scene of Hebei boatmen dragging large ships for eight years was extremely spectacular.

As for this gentle river, because there is a different western river, most people in Guangzhou call it Zhu Yuanjiang by the Zhu Yuan tribe of the Jiaozhou man, and also called it Zhu Yuanhe. But no matter what the name is, the Zhu Yuan tribe of the Jiaozhou man is no longer there. After Li Daoxing gained a foothold, the surrounding 267 Jiaozhou man tribes and caves were suppressed and pacified, including the Zhu Yuan tribe.

The most gathering place for the Zhu Yuan tribe's people is probably a stone mine freezer area in Danzhou.

The vigorous development of Jiaozhou was not unaware of the Outer Dynasty, especially the Outer Dynasty newly established Jiaozhi County and Zhuyuan County in Jiaozhou. It can be seen that the local population and the number of land registrations have already had a considerable scale.

Moreover, it was not just the court, but the civil forces did not let Jiaozhou go. Whether it was because of Zhang De, Wang Xiaotong, or Li Daoxing and Li Jingren, the father and son themselves, Jiaozhou attracted a large number of civil forces from Jingxiang and Jiangnan.

Even if it is not very powerful, it accumulates a lot. In just a few years, the lower-class people in the southern country who were hanging in Jiaozhou were considered "famous" in Jiaozhou. The profits in Jiaozhou have enabled these people to "return home in glory", further stimulating the "lower-class villagers"'s adventures overseas.

The convergence of cognition in the government and the opposition also made Jiaozhou gradually have the conditions to have another "important town" in the South China Sea after Guangzhou. In addition to Cheng Chubi's successful experience in the Western Regions, the senior officials with six ministries and above also decided to continue to implement the policy of "from point to surface" and "business focus".

The result of this was that Zhang De spread out the map of the South China Sea and found that the Tang Dynasty forces, either like nails or rice cakes, occupied the sticky areas and never left the key advantageous areas.

This is the dual result of the court's policy and the will of the people. Even if Zhang De finds it incredible and incomprehensible, it actually happens and continues to spread.

"I'm really a little sleepy and it means a pillow."

After a few thoughts, Lao Zhang was at his desk and remembered the current civil war in India and the Western Turks "for slaves" and couldn't help but feel a little moved.
