If at this stage, the prospects prove not to be so good, then...
Will there be a situation similar to that of people traveling south in uniform? When the time comes, these pioneering soldiers...
Fortunately, these soldiers were from the founding army and would not complain easily. But... what about the descendants? It is entirely possible for them to run away with buckets.
If it reaches that stage, the people in the border areas will all run back to the Tang Dynasty but no one will follow, and a large area of land will be abandoned...
If there is a natural or man-made disaster for the indigenous people in that place, they will say that they have no place to live, and they ask you to resettle them. Will you accept it? This territory will be reduced for no reason!
It's simply a loss of blood.
Li Er was born in the Guanlong area. This kind of thing happened repeatedly in the northwest. It was so familiar to him.
But Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling...
Since these people can become the confidants of General Tiance, it is of course impossible for them not to understand these principles.
Wei Zheng quickly said, "Your Majesty, since His Highness is handling this matter, there shouldn't be any major problems."
"But……"
Li Er frowned, but did not speak directly.
The opening up of Xinjiang is inseparable from the establishment of land reclamation, and the establishment of land reclamation... Since it is the opening up of Xinjiang, of course it must be done if there are conditions, but if there are no conditions, it must be carried out by force.
Why is this matter, Li Sheng’s opinion on the idea of developing Southeast Asia in the chat, Li Er and this group of staff accepted it so quickly and acted so decisively.
The reason is very simple, because even if Southeast Diao is not as rich as Li Sheng said...
Even it is relatively barren, but as long as the Chinese people can have a relatively good quality of life after going to cultivate the land, and they don't have to go hungry most of the time, then the cultivation can continue.
...and Kaijiang was truly successful.
As for how much money can be made from developing this place, that is too good a thing. As His Majesty, what Li Er values is the guarantee after the "but" of "even if it is not prosperous and rich, but...".
But now that this pioneering activity is so in-depth, soon... when the route is really opened up, and the soldiers of China really build a bridgehead in the southeast corner, then the real commercial route will be established...
The resources in various places in the southeast area also need to enter formal development. This is where the real money is spent.
And if the profits are really not good, the soldiers themselves will be fine by then, but the army of disappointed businessmen will probably lead to a trend of running away...
What should we do when we reach that stage? These places cannot be left unfinished, and the territory that has been opened cannot be returned in vain, right? Then isn't Datang a fool...
Wei Zheng paused and looked up to see Li Er still looking worried, thinking that His Majesty was really worried about this.
So he raised his hands and continued, "Your Majesty, I don't think you need to worry about this matter. After all, the South China Sea..."
"It's a warm place after all."
"A warm place..."
Li Er was startled when he heard this, but then he immediately came to his senses.
It seems to be the case... Southeast Bay is a warm place after all!
Warmer than Jiangdong.
As for Saibei...in history, the reason why it fell repeatedly and became the source of turmoil was because it was too cold and many places could not farm at all. How could the Han people be retained in places where farming was impossible?
And the survival crisis caused by the cold will also appear on the Hu people. If the Han people can't survive, they can still run to Jiangdong to participate in the involution. Then what will the Hu people do?... One can only imagine.
If we want long-term peace and stability, we must first rely on our military capabilities to defeat the Hu people, and then we must rely on our economic capabilities to suppress them and earn money so that the lonely Han family members who are farming can marry Hu Ji. In this way, the population will increase.
If it is prosperous, its borders will naturally be stable.
But the South China Sea is different from the North Sea. The temperature in the South China Sea is very high. Li Er has been traveling around for half his life and knows this very well. He knows that the lighting and temperature conditions in those places may be better than those in Jiangdong.
Temperature and sunshine, these are the two keys, the real key!
With this in mind, the rest will naturally fall into place.
Even a big man can understand the bitter cold land. He has stitched together the border enfeoffment mechanism from the Chu region to give you a clear arrangement of the desert.
So today’s warm areas…
Could it be that I, Li Er, am so unbearable that I am in trouble?
Besides, I, Li Erfei, can't stand it, but my son, Li Sheng, is not messing around in vain!
After thinking about it like this, Li Er felt much more relieved!
"good……"
The eyes of the excited Emperor Taizong gradually lit up, and a feeling emerged in his heart.
My fortune in the Tang Dynasty is invincible!
…
Naturally, the vigorous development cannot be limited to Li Sheng and the palace. Soon...
Wang Jing and others also got the news.
And the news is shocking.
Originally, due to the new infrastructure construction in Hangzhou, a lot of military intelligence was brought in by phone, which already caused Wang Jing and Pei Ji's gang to collapse - blood loss!
Nothing has been earned, but...for people like Wang Jing and Pei Ji who live in fear of falling in class every day, not eating anything is a loss in itself.
How can people with blood loss be easily convinced?
But people like Wang Jing and Pei Ji had to be convinced. This...
"Alas...who would have thought that a foolish man like Li Er would actually benefit a wealthy family!"
Wang Jing and the others were almost stunned with anger, and Pei Ji was gnashing his teeth.
"Li Er, this foolish king, doesn't care about the country. He doesn't encourage farmers and mulberry trees. Instead, he provides conveniences to wealthy merchants. Isn't this the same as giving up the foundation and chasing the inferior?"
"I see this Tang Dynasty Pill!"
Pei Ji was still furious after he cursed angrily.
Wang Jing, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe... all of them had pale faces.
As for Xiao Yu, he hasn't had much time in Chang'an recently and has been working... He is one of the few people with the fifth surname and Qiwang who are the tentacles of the court.
However, having this kind of tentacles was of no use, because Wang Jing and Pei Ji's group discovered a very terrifying thing.
Li Er only benefited merchants, but he did not say that he benefited all aristocratic families.
If doing business becomes a profitable thing that can make the rich richer, then in the more distant future, all wealthy families in the world will take action.
They will gradually become different from the land tyrants like themselves and no longer stick to the land.
They will become richer and richer...eventually catching up with the original wealthy families like the Five Surnames and Qiwang.
When that time comes, how will the five surnames and Qiwang deal with themselves?
This kind of thing is in front of us, but Wang Jing and others are not worried.
Faced with this situation, Pei Ji thought for a while and looked at the friends around him...
