Chapter 3609: Out of line and blessed

If I have the chance, I will definitely waste it. Everything below the first place is useless. Even the second place is useless. This is the true sense of humility. When you are not the first, you are a waste. When you become the first, you are a waste.

At that time, it means that I deserve to be punished.

In short, the Hua Xia system has basically the same attitude. When I am not number one, I am definitely my fault. When I am number one, it is definitely because of others. Anyway, it is definitely not because I am too strong.

Think about it, I, the Chinese, have been bullied for thousands of years. Today I am beaten by this one, and then I fight back, and tomorrow I am beaten by that, and then I fight back. Each time, I have to go through an extremely hard fight to survive until the end, and I can be as big as I am now.

The territory was all sent over because the local people admired China and took the initiative to integrate it, as well as some guys who could see the future.

What about fighting and killing? How can civilized people talk like this? We are spreading civilization and educating all people. The Central Plains is very difficult. Our technical strength is due to insufficient resources and various strange barrier problems, and then we are forced to

developed.

Chen Xi struggled to suppress these strange thoughts. Sometimes he would just think about other things.

"Let's talk about the situation in Southeast Asia. I think you should have calmed down now." After Chen Xi suppressed those unnecessary thoughts, he looked at Zhou Yu and said, "What is the current situation in Southeast Asia?"

"After being beaten like this by you, it would be strange for me to be like before." Zhou Yu waved his hand and said, "As for Southeast Asia, what the hell is this vocabulary."

"It doesn't matter what the vocabulary is, as long as you understand what it means." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, he was just used to using such geographical terms.

"After Kushan is resolved, there will be no problems over there." Zhou Yu no longer dwelled on Chen Xi's choice of words, but focused on Chen Xi's problem, "Actually, the problem that had always existed over there was Kushan.

issues, other issues come later.”

Chen Xi nodded and expressed that he understood. Just like the war that took place in Southeast Asia during World War II, whether it was Japan, the United States, Japan, Britain, or others, it had nothing to do with the local area. The local area was just a battlefield and hunting ground.

"The situation over there is a bit strange. Some places are incredibly fertile, and some places are incredibly barren." Zhou Yu frowned strangely.

The Han Dynasty had professional dignitaries. After all, they were from orthodox farming backgrounds, so their professional skills were very high. Therefore, during the naval battle with Kushan, Zhou Yu had already organized manpower to explore the major islands in Southeast Asia.

.

Finally, I discovered a very bizarre problem. The extension line of Indochina. Needless to say, it is a real fertile soil, which is later Thailand and the Malay area. It is stable to have three crops a year. I just sow some seeds.

, can grow food to eat.

Sumatra Island is slightly worse. The northwest is higher and more hilly, while the southeast is basically plains, but has more rivers and swamps. It is relatively short of cultivated land. However, due to climate reasons, as long as it is cultivated land, it is basically all cultivated land.

Fertile soil with three crops a year is better than most places in the Central Plains for growing rice.

As for the problem of rivers and swamps, this is really not a problem for the Han Dynasty. China has been very good at transforming water networks since ancient times. Therefore, the plain swamps on Sumatra Island were quickly transformed by the Han Dynasty using various water conservancy methods.

of cultivated land.

After all, Jiangnan once had as many water networks and swamps as Sumatra. As a result, with the development of generations of Central Plains people, all the areas were turned into fertile farmland.

For the Chinese people, the difficulty of transforming land with water is far less than that of land with water. The former has many ways to repair the water conservancy network, while the latter, to be honest, without water means no water.

Therefore, Sumatra is quite suitable for Zhou Yu. In addition, it has a tropical maritime climate. Zhou Yu really doesn't think there is any problem and just lives in Jiangnan.

As for the problems of water networks and swamps, just spend some time on water conservancy construction. After all, there are really no big rivers here, and the difficulty of water conservancy is essentially only engineering difficulty.

The only island that gave Zhou Yu a headache was Kalimantan. It was really barren. Zhou Yu didn't understand why virgin forests could grow and why the soil there was still so barren. In short, the big island was abandoned.

In addition, the prospectors also felt that there were no mines on the island. Zhou Yu was currently thinking of selling this large island of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers to Chen Xi and mortgaging it to Chang'an Bank.

In short, all the locations in Southeast Asia that can be explored have been explored. Overall, Zhou Yu is very satisfied. It is millions of square kilometers in size, with all kinds of resources, and there are many places for farming. Although there is no one at the moment, he really needs to consider it.

If so, the future development potential is quite good.

"This is normal. The situation over there is just like that. You haven't studied climatology, so it's normal that you don't understand." Chen Xi spread his hands and said casually.

In fact, this problem is not only a problem in Southeast Asia, but also in Australia. However, the barren islands in Southeast Asia are due to excessive rain erosion, while in Australia, due to the lack of transverse mountain interception, rain clouds drift directly from the mainland and cannot stay.

Generally speaking, it is a geographical issue and a climate issue. In the case of Australia, the simplest way is to build horizontal mountains. However, the amount of this project is too outrageous, so it is better not to dream about it. Wouldn't it be better to use it as a resource point?

Beautiful.

Zhou Yu glanced at Chen Xi, too lazy to talk to Chen Xi, and brought the topic back again, "The situation over there, let alone the scope of the Indochina Peninsula, South Vietnam also does not need to be mentioned. Those places are all real grain-producing areas.

.”

Chen Xi nodded. It was indeed true. The climate in those places was suitable for farming. Although the initial cost of industrialization was too high due to excessive rain and development was not possible, from a food perspective, those places were indeed conducive to farming.

It's just that during this period, the local people themselves are relatively sparse. Moreover, these people are really not very good at farming at present. They have much more fertile land than the Central Plains and cannot produce the standard yield per mu of the Central Plains. However, they cannot sustain three crops a year.

Ripe.

So much so that even if they are squatting in a tree, these people can live quite well.

"If we take the enfeoffment route next, we will probably choose to use the canal as the dividing line to build in the south and the current Ye Tiaoguo area. The base camp should fall in Ye Tiaoguo." Zhou Yu was serious at this time.

I have been planning with the mindset of seeking a country.

If it is a small garbage country, it will definitely put its main force on Java Island, because apart from being a little smaller, Java Island surpasses Sumatra in all other aspects, especially when considering food, Java Island's advantages will be very obvious.

Volcanic ash is famously fertile, and Java Island is a volcano that periodically fertilizes the entire island. More importantly, it has a tropical rainforest climate with no winter all year round. It is a true grain-producing land. If we only look at the fertile land and irrigation

From the perspective of convenience, this place is even more exaggerated than the Ganges Plain. Of course, the area is indeed smaller, only 140,000 square kilometers.

But relying on these advantages, this place is enough to support a population of tens of millions in this era.

However, Zhou Yu, as a holder of a big-power mentality, decisively chose Sumatra as his homeland and Java as a grain-producing area.

For Zhou Yu, he would rather spend time and energy on water conservancy projects in Sumatra than put down his capital in a place with no potential for war.

"As expected, take control of the canal, block Malacca, and block other channels to the Indian Ocean, right?" Chen Xi looked at Zhou Yu and applauded and said, Zhou Yu still has a very poisonous vision.

"Since you said something like a hundred-year plan, I have to think about it." Zhou Yu leaned back, then looked at Chen Xi seriously and said.

"But in this case, I'm afraid you will really be stuck in the water conservancy construction period for more than ten to twenty years." Chen Xi looked at Zhou Yu and nodded.

"If you want to gain something, you have to give." Zhou Yu said calmly, "Things that are too easy to get will also be easy to lose."

"You are so open and honest." Chen Xi sat up straight and looked at Zhou Yu and said, "It seems that you had two plans from the beginning."

"The latter is just suppressing the fear of thinking deeply. Since you have picked it out, I have to continue." Zhou Yu said seriously, "I think if we really want to stand firm, then

It must be like this, and we must invest fifteen to twenty years of energy to plan the chaotic rivers and swamps over there and let the rivers recede."

Chen Xi nodded. Later generations of Indonesia also wanted to do the same, but as of now, Indonesia seems to be stuck in Java. God knows whether it will take hundreds of years to complete the construction of the water conservancy network in southeastern Sumatra.

"It's a very good plan, and it is indeed in line with my ideas." Chen Xi nodded.

Chen Xi really didn't understand why it took so many years for Indonesia to not build a water conservancy network, but just let trees grow on hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land. It should be said that the food production of Java Island is indeed very outrageous.

You can afford it, right?

"For you, these behaviors are not out of line at all." Zhou Yu looked at Chen Xi with emotion and said.

"When King Chu governed Yunmengze, conquered Baiyue, and expanded his territory, was it a blessing for the Zhou royal family? Is it inappropriate for us now?" Chen Xi asked rhetorically.

Indeed, in the eyes of the Zhou royal family, your Chu country has no qualifications for conquest. The conquest of rituals and music came from the emperor, and your Chu country dared to take action randomly. But in the present, it would be a blessing for all generations.
