Qiongzhou has always been synonymous with remoteness since ancient times. It is a barren land in the eyes of the world, a place of destiny.
Once upon a time, people suddenly discovered that Qiongzhou had changed a bit!
This place is no longer the ghost place it used to be, where chickens can't lay eggs and birds can't poop.
Ghost: My hometown is Fengdu.
Ahem, let’s talk about changes first.
From the perspective of local people, after Qi Zhifu took office, he vigorously promoted trade and encouraged farming and mulberry cultivation. He brought Hainan's business to Luzon, turning tens of thousands of acres of barren land into fertile farmland. Businessmen continued to travel to the sea, and the people had plenty of money and food.
, these obvious changes are all visible.
In the eyes of outsiders, after Mr. Qi took office, he went south to suppress bandits and went north to conquer, surrendered and pacified the rebel bandits in Nayan, and defeated King Yong's group of tigers and wolves. The young people were frightened and the fake Japanese were frightened. These domineering side
Leak, who can’t see it?
It can be said that it has formed a considerable influence both internally and externally, but the biggest one is externally.
To be more specific, it refers specifically to the Battle of Tuen Mun.
On the surface, this battle is about the "Qiong Army" assisting the government army in the suppression, that is, they are a small supporting role helping to defeat the underlings.
However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Qi Yu is the absolute protagonist of this naval battle. He single-handedly destroyed King Yong's defense, and finally defeated the enemy alone, fighting with awe and awe.
Although Qi Yu deliberately kept a low profile and never announced it to the outside world, there is no airtight wall in the world, and word spread secretly one after another.
Seemingly inadvertently, the influence spread quietly, and everyone around Nanhai heard that a ruthless man came from Qiongzhou, his name was Qi Yu.
Take the King of Luzon as an example. It is said that after hearing about this incident, he had insomnia for a whole night. After careful consideration, he decided to withdraw the decision he had just made to make things difficult for Qiong merchants.
Similarly, there is King Annan. It is said that he originally wanted to write to the emperor of the suzerain country, accusing him of poaching people without respecting civility. However, when he heard about the naval battle of Tuen Mun, he hurriedly tore up the document.
Seal the table.
As for what other small vassal states think, it is still unknown.
In short, there is a conclusion: a ruthless man has come to Qiongzhou, it is best not to mess with him.
Just kidding, that guy beat King Yong so hard that he even braved a typhoon to escape, and even beat up the artillery troops in Tuen Mun to the point where they were all looking for teeth. Who dares to stroke such a fierce man?
Minister Annan asked, what would happen if he was accidentally offended?
how?
Take a look at the torture chamber of Qiongzhou Prefecture. There are all the yellow-haired ghosts from the Flemish Kingdom who have offended him.
Damn it, the consequences are so serious!
Invisibly, the waters around Qiongzhou have become much more peaceful, and even the Japanese pirates from Fusang, who make a living by robbing, are no longer willing to visit here.
What is deterrence?
Haha, this is it!
However, Qi Yu completely turned a deaf ear to these external rumors. At this time, he was devoting himself wholeheartedly to Qiongzhou's education.
Science and technology are primary productive forces.
If we want to develop science and technology, we must put education first.
After this period of high-pressure training, the knowledge of the scholars headed by Long Shitong improved by leaps and bounds.
In Qi Yu's opinion, these people have mastered the basic knowledge of science and have barely reached the standard to serve as primary instructors. As they continue to learn and improve in the future, their level will rise.
The most outstanding one is Yin Tao.
This woman has a very high level of understanding. She can understand it easily and learn it instantly. Qi Yu even doubted that she had been exposed to this type of knowledge before, otherwise how could she be so comfortable with it?
No matter what, she is one of the smartest people in the world. Wouldn't it be a waste of resources if she doesn't use such a talented person?
Qi Yu was very lucky that he kept her because of his momentary slip of the tongue. Looking at it now, how wise was this decision?
Baby, even if you want to leave now, I won't let you go.
However, Qi Dalang was quite disappointed that Xiaotong showed a very average understanding of science and did not show any amazing talent.
No one is perfect.
It is already rare for her to be able to cultivate both civil and military skills. If she was good at everything, wouldn't she become a living god?
Just think about it, no need to worry.
In his spare time, Qi Yu also specially wrote a pen version of "Hard Pen Calligraphy", or a copybook, and printed it and bound it into a volume for use as an elective textbook.
For now, the pen has been put into use, and it's time to show off its artistic beauty.
Huh? Qi Dalang’s handwriting is very good?
Okay!
Anyone who has art skills will not be too bad at writing. Although his calligraphy is not at the level of a master, it can still be regarded as an expert.
…
On this day, Sun Dacai came over to visit his mother-in-law Zhou, carrying two perfunctory gifts.
The old lady took a sideways look and found that there were only preserved fruits but no meat in the basket. Her smiling face suddenly darkened. After saying "You are so generous", she went to the backyard to cook.
If you don't like it, you won't be happy, but you can't starve him.
Qi Yu pretended not to notice this, but still enthusiastically offered his seat to his brother-in-law.
"Aha, I heard from your sister that you want Qiaoyun to study?" Sun Dacai asked as soon as he sat down.
"Well, there are benefits to studying, and now that you have the conditions, why not study?" Qi Yu explained.
Sun Dacai frowned slightly and said: "I still want to let this girl help me with some work..."
Qi Yu straightened his face and interrupted him: "Brother-in-law, you are wrong to think like this. The future development is changing with each passing day, and those who are illiterate will be eliminated by society! As her uncle, I have the responsibility to seek solutions for her.
Welfare, you must listen to me on this matter, there is no need to discuss it!"
Perhaps it was because of the harsh tone that it frightened Sun Dacai to the point of trembling.
However, in Qi Yu's view, as an uncle, he has the obligation to educate his nephews and nieces, and also has the responsibility to care for their growth.
Take myself as an example. If it weren’t for the support and protection of my two uncles, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
"Forget it, let's just listen to you on this matter." Sun Dacai saw that he couldn't defeat him, so he simply stopped arguing.
"Brother-in-law is really a very understanding person. He knows everything right." Qi Yu smiled with satisfaction and praised.
"..."
Sun Dacai hurriedly changed the subject and said, "I heard that you want to place me in the new school to handle chores."
"Let me correct you first. It's not called a school, it's called an academy. The position you're in should be a fat vacancy, do you understand?" Seeing his probing, Qi Yu simply made it clear.
As soon as he heard the word "fat", Sun Dacai couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Haha, in the final analysis, we are still relatives!"
After a pause, he suddenly asked a puzzling question: "Ah Hao, is there any illegal immigration in Qiongzhou?"
"Immigration?" Qi Yu was stunned at first, and then laughed: "I have never issued such a ban!"
The reason why I didn't go down was because I did it on purpose.
Qiongzhou's population is already scarce, and its labor force is far from sufficient. Because of this, he asked Huang Fei to go to Annan to work as a pimp. Under such circumstances, how could he issue a ban on smuggling?
Furthermore, even if there are outsiders coming to seek refuge, there is no need to sneak across the border!
I have already issued a decree. No matter where the outsider is, as long as he goes to the government office and leaves a copy of his file, he can obtain the so-called "temporary residence permit" for free. With this permit, he can live in Qiongzhou.
Just like the locals.
Qi Yu wondered: "Why did my brother-in-law say this?"
Sun Dacai replied: "Don't say it was me. One night, I actually saw a small group of illegal immigrants."
Ever since he was violently beaten by a bald man many years ago, Sun Dacai's courage has become much weaker. Although he is reporting on his brother-in-law, he still looks very scared.
What?
Is there really someone smuggling across the border?
It's strange. Why did you wade across the river when there was a bridge?
Qi Yu touched his chin and couldn't help but frown.
