If you win the hearts of 200,000 people, you will be able to win more hearts in the future.
Ding Yunyi's seemingly stupid thing in the eyes of many people will sooner or later turn into a major event that shocks the world.
The only unhappy person in Taiwan is probably Qin Yun. No wonder, the busiest person in Taiwan is also this unhappy butler.
It is completely conceivable that being responsible for the administrative affairs of the entire Golden Eagle City and the entire Taiwan is already busy enough, but now there are suddenly hundreds of thousands more disaster victims, and anyone else would be full of complaints.
Because of this, the first thing Qin Yun blurted out when he saw Ding Yunyi was: "Deputy Town Ding, have you found a replacement for Qin Yun?"
"Replacement? Why should I replace you?" Ding Yunyi said with a smile.
Qin Yun was listless: "Qin Yun is weak and sick and overwhelmed, so he wants to retire and return to his hometown."
The brothers all covered their mouths and snickered. Qin Yun is so young, is he ready to retire and return to his hometown?
"Fourth brother, you have worked hard." Ding Yunyi pretended not to hear this: "There are more than 200,000 people, which is enough for you, but you think, if you don't take care of these things, who will take care of it? No, I
Although I have sent so many people to you, I am also trying to find ways to help you get food. I have to be busy fighting the Jinlu at the border, and I have to issue orders from the leader of the alliance to order the pirates to collect food everywhere. It is not easy, not easy.
easy."
How could he say that this was "not easy"? Qin Yun finally couldn't help but burst out: "Third brother, I beg you to say hello to me in advance before making any major decisions in the future? More than two hundred thousand, twenty thousand
There are so many people! You sent Duan San'er back to tell me that there were only ten thousand people. I thought it would be no big deal, but who would have thought that so many people would come as soon as I arrived. Where can I get food? You know what I can do in a day now?
How much time do you need to rest? I don’t even dare to go to the toilet to clean myself!”
There was a burst of laughter, and Ding Yunyi also laughed so much that he held his belly and bent down. It took him a long time to barely stop laughing: "Cheng, Cheng, fourth child, now I'm back. I'll ask someone to help you share some of the burden. You
You can go to the hut happily today!"
Qin Yun was also anxious, so he said something like that. As soon as he said it, he felt that it was wrong. After all, he was born in Jieyuan, how could he say such a thing? But he couldn't take it back after he said it.
When the laughter subsided, Ding Yunyi said seriously: "Although so many disaster victims are a burden now, the impact on our future in Taiwan will be very profound. Our Taiwan is vast and sparsely populated, and so much land has not been cultivated. Why?
manage?"
"If you reclaim the land, then Romande will protest against your destruction of the natural environment." Qin Yun muttered.
"Either enriching the people and strengthening the army, or destroying the environment, I can only choose one of the two." Ding Yunyi gradually stopped smiling: "I can't care about these things for the time being. Brothers, I went to the border and the Central Plains, and fought with the Jinlu
. We also fought against rogue bandits, and the situation in the Ming Dynasty is not optimistic. Within seven or eight years, the world will undergo great changes."
With one sentence, all the brothers were attracted to Ding Yunyi's words:
"The big change has really come. Where will we go in Taiwan? With our current strength, people can erase us with a snap of their fingers. We must continue to develop to the point where everyone will look at us with suspicion. But we must continue to develop.
Development is inseparable from the same people! With the few people we have now, it is a fool's errand to arm tens of thousands more troops! But now we have brought more than 200,000 people to Taiwan, and more disaster victims will arrive in the future.
Taiwan. Who are these people? Now they are victims of the disaster. But soon they will be soldiers, strong laborers, and the new force that will strengthen Taiwan! In the future, all the land in Taiwan will be reclaimed and there will be no place to live in Taiwan. What should we do?"
He looked at his brothers, and then said slowly: "Then take them out and fight back to the Central Plains!"
Everyone took a breath. Did Ding Yunyi's words seem to reveal some special meaning?
"I don't want to rebel, no." Ding Yunyi said slowly: "I, Ding Yunyi, will never rebel against the Ming Dynasty, but the bandits want the country of the Ming Dynasty, and the Jinlu also want the country of the Ming Dynasty. What should we do? Stay in Taiwan all day long.
Tu Emperor? Who would indulge us so helplessly? No! Only when our own power grows stronger, no one will dare to despise us! We are a small Taiwan, but we must have the power to turn things around, and the strength to decide the outcome.
! Otherwise, we, a local emperor, will sooner or later be killed by others until not even a hair is left!"
The brothers were all listening carefully. They knew that the deputy town had great ambitions, but no one thought that the deputy town had such ambitions!
Turn things around? Decide the outcome? What does the deputy town want to do?
"Why do we invite French people, French silk people, and French people? The reason is to learn from their advanced experience and turn their technology into our own." Ding Yunyi spoke slowly and carefully.
Clarity: "Sitting in a well and watching the sky will only allow others to be eliminated in the end, and then be passively beaten; we have recovered so many victims, and we are not causing trouble ourselves. By helping them, we are actually helping ourselves. Sooner or later, everyone will say that Taiwan is a
A good place is a place where we can survive and save people. When we are able to leave Taiwan one day in the future, and everyone will respond, think about what the situation will be like."
Seeing the brothers nodding frequently, a smile suddenly appeared on Ding Yunyi's face: "As for the truth, I have told you that things are as they are. You have to accept it if you can accept it, and you have to accept it if you can't. One more thing, I, Ding Yunyi, marry
I have several wives, but most of my brothers are single, which makes this town feel sad..."
The brothers suddenly became excited, and Ding Yunyi said with a half-smile: "Who do you like among these victims? As long as they agree, I will help you cover all the wedding expenses."
There was a cheer immediately, but Qin Yun suddenly understood the third brother's intention.
Although these disaster victims have come to Taiwan, they have not yet established a sense of belonging. If the locals can marry them, it will not only make them feel at ease, but also make the locals and immigrants get along more harmoniously.
.
They have land, houses, and their relatives are married to the locals. Then they naturally regard Taiwan as their real home...
Third brother is really devoted to Taiwan.
"Ding, Ding?"
The brothers were very excited about getting a wife. Father Sarozzi greeted him loudly and walked over to Ding Yunyi with an excited look on his face:
"Ding, let God bless you. You are the most loving and kind person I have ever met. God, you have saved so many people. Your name will be passed down from generation to generation. I have
I have recorded everything you did. The name is 'Everything I Saw in China'. After I return to China, I believe your name will be known to more people..."
Well? Let everyone in Europe know your name? That's not bad.
Father Sarozzi then became more excited: "Of course, with so many new immigrants, I can see that my church will have many more believers. This is really great. You have done a great thing for the church."
That."
I plant trees and you enjoy the shade? I try every means to solve the survival problems for the victims, but you want to develop believers from the victims? Is there such a good thing in the world? Ding Yunyi is a person who absolutely refuses to suffer, and his eyes rolled around for a while
: "Father, of course you can develop believers. However, the church is merciful and has become your parishioners, so I don't care about what they eat and drink."
Father Sarozzi's eyes suddenly widened: "No, no. You are the leader of Taiwan. You should still be responsible for the food and drink of these people. As for me, I am only responsible for the church."
"Go away, you cunning and shameless priest." Ding Yunyi laughed and scolded: "I worked hard to get food for them, and you choose ready-made food? You shameless priest. Have you made less money from me in the past two years?
Do something for me, talk money and keep money, what do you think of me? Money bag? Now you are asked to dig money, but you feel bad again? Qin Yun, listen to your third brother, every time the priest develops
Believers, charge him 2 taels of silver, no different price. If he needs food, sell it to him at the price we purchased plus 20%."
"Yes!" Qin Yun was very excited when he heard that there was money to be made.
Father Sarozzi was stunned. If he had known that he would come to Ding Yunyi, why would he come to see him?
He has not yet recalled what happened. The two former rivals, Father Marco of France and Father Cantinius of Ganras, who came over there after hearing the news, originally came here to compete for believers.
Just when I heard Ding Yunyi say such words, everyone quickly fell silent.
But how could Ding Yunyi let them go: "And you, Marco, Candinius, you too. There are more than 200,000 people, and more people will come in the future. They are willing to believe in Buddhism, and they are willing to
Religious believers, but the same thing, every person who voluntarily joins the church is worth two taels of silver. I am the most fair person, and I am fair and honest! Marco, you made a lot of money when Fo Langji invaded Taiwan. As for you
, Father Candinius..."
"I am working for you loyally." Father Candinius said in a hurry to please: "Have you forgotten that I spent a lot of effort to open up the maritime trade route to Luzon?"
"Don't do this with me." Ding Yunyi didn't give any face to him: "You have access to the sea route, but you pretend that I don't know how much money you made? I was just too lazy to argue with you before. Damn it, you are so stupid
Silk man, you are the hero and you need money. I, you are still the hero and you need money just the same. Your business is really good. I won’t talk nonsense with you. I have set the price. I want to develop this church. Look.
Which of you has been filial to this town?"
The two businessmen, Xie Xuan and Sun Xiyu, couldn't help laughing.
The phrase "Which of you is filial to this town" is the only way to make money.
In order to compete for believers, these three churches must have to spend a lot of money. This is just the beginning. It is uncertain how much money Master Ding will get from them in the future.
The three priests had sad faces. Isn't Master Ding too greedy? Money is needed to develop believers? Especially Sarozzi, who has been working for Ding Yunyi since Penghu. He has indeed made a lot of money. But seeing Ding Yunyi Ding
Your Excellency looks like you want him to spit out his money and profits.
But developing believers is their most sacred mission, which is nothing compared to money. When encountering such a "greedy" adult, it seems that they can only accept their fate.
Ding Yunyi's idea is that it would be good to recover some capital from these people. Furthermore, if the church can find a way to solve food problems on its own, it can also reduce some pressure on Taiwan.
In the days since leaving Taiwan, Golden Eagle City has basically completed all reconstructions according to Ding Yunyi's ideas. The city walls are towering and solid, with numerous cannons, and warships of the Huben Navy are patrolling outside. The enemy must attack in a large scale, and Golden Eagle City will be formed immediately.
The city and the sea support each other.
At the same time, reinforcements from Penghu can also arrive as soon as possible.
Even if the naval battle fails and the enemy lands in large numbers, with the strength and artillery power of Golden Eagle City, it will be able to sustain it for a long time.
If Ding Yunyi decided to develop Taiwan into an unbreakable fortress, then Golden Eagle City would be the core part of this fortress.
In important parts of Golden Eagle City, the most elite infantry of the Huben Guards are stationed. They are a force responsible for defending Golden Eagle City and maintaining public order.
However, Ding Yunyi is obviously not particularly satisfied with this. Soldiers are used to fight, and they cannot solely rely on them to maintain local security. But he is not busy solving it now.
At present, the military strength of the Huben Guards is mainly divided into two types: navy and infantry, and the infantry is also divided into several forces.
One is equipped with firearms but is trained according to the traditional model of the Ming Dynasty, and the other is an army represented by Major Shiweide's regiment that is equipped with a large number of firearms. These two armies do not interfere and develop and train each other according to their own ideas.
Judging from the current situation, since muskets cannot obtain the decisive factor on the battlefield, if there is a confrontation, it is obvious that the traditional Ming army can gain the upper hand after a stalemate and ultimately win. But Ding Yunyi knows very well that in the future
The development model of the army must be like Major Swede's Regiment.
When firearms achieve breakthrough development and begin to arm armies on a large scale, soldiers using swords will be vulnerable to firearms.
It's just that it takes a very long time to develop. Even if you have knowledge that is many years ahead of this era, it is useless. Developing firearms requires one step at a time and can only be achieved through the efforts of countless people. However, no matter what,
, at least he has taken the most solid step and is leading his group to move in this direction.
Sooner or later, one day, a powerful and terrifying army will appear in front of the whole world!
