1178 Patterns and minds
The 120,000 tons of stock is simply a drizzle compared to the large state-owned grain warehouses in Xiao Letian’s previous life, but in the 19th century, it was already a world-class large grain warehouse.
Xiao Letian remembered that later China's direct grain depot in Dalian had nearly 1 million tons of reserves, and the remaining grain depots at the provincial level also had grain reserves ranging from 200,000 to 300,000 to 300,000 tonnes.
That is the New China with a population of more than one billion. Unit output of land has increased exponentially through new technologies and the attribute bonus of fertilizers. In addition, a large number of overseas procurement can solve the problem of food and clothing for one billion people.
Now, by destroying the tropical rainforest of the Southeast Asian Sea and constantly eroding the living space of the indigenous monkeys, Xiao Letian has saved such a huge grain reserve in just five years. This is simply a miracle.
If a famine occurs in Beijing, with a population of 1 million, the minimum standard amount of life-saving food must be guaranteed to be 15,000 tons per month. 120,000 tons of rice is enough for the people in the capital to consume eight months of food.
This is just a granary in the Bailayi area. So what about the Dudong River Basin? What about other places in Borneo? Does Xiao Letian really want to rely on his own efforts to solve the food problem of the entire Qing Dynasty?
Commander-in-chief Stefansky swallowed, "My God! Can the entire Nanyang grain production really support such a large China? This is simply impossible!"
Molière's muscles on half of his deposed face were twitching involuntarily. "This is a deep colonization! Xiao Letian is so terrible. His routine is completely different from our Europeans. We just eat the fattest meat on our prey, and he just wants to chew the bones and swallow them!"
"The Kentun District was established in the name of the Chinese, and the construction of large numbers of immigrant towns was completed without challenging the indigenous kings and Western powers, resulting in the occupation of the fait accompli..."
"What a sinister method, it's better to give him time? He must be wiped out, and this disaster must not be kept..."
Molière belongs to the French elite, and has a good education since childhood, and has followed the French emperor to see many major strategic battles after becoming an adult, so he is still very familiar with colonial culture.
The Western colonial wave has begun since the Age of Discovery, but for various reasons, Europe has always had a very big disadvantage in colonizing the entire earth, that is, it can only carry out superficial colonization and cannot go deeper.
The Spanish conquered the entire South America and ruled for nearly four hundred years, but they did not complete the thorough colonization in depth. The Portuguese conquered Asia also encountered the same problem. Of course, they could take away a lot of precious metals and precious goods through commercial and plunder, but that was all.
Afterwards, the emerging powers such as the Netherlands, Britain and France did not do very well. Even India, the jewel in the crown, which is known as the crown of the sun never sets, is a rich place called the core of the colonization by the British, actually failed to achieve in-depth colonization.
The British only controlled countless kings of the country, and then the kings of the country controlled the untouchables. Britain could completely control India's economy, diplomacy, and military lifelines, but the British could not directly access Indian culture, including land from beginning to end.
In the Indian subcontinent, if the UK wants to increase the cotton planting by 30%, then they cannot directly apply the government order to the Vaisya, that is, the Indian civilian class. Although the entire Vaisya, Shudra and even Kshatriya in India, the Brahmins all believe that the British colonists are the highest class.
But no matter how noble your identity is and how noble we respect you, your government must be implemented in accordance with our cultural traditions.
If the British wanted more cotton, they had to hand over more orders to the Brahmins and Kshatriya who owned the land. Then these two classes then hired Vaishya to manage the huge untouchable Shudra and finally completed the production of cotton orders.
It was a huge cycle, with the British getting cheap resources, the Vaisya civilians getting the fees for hiring, and the Shudra and Kshatriya getting the benefits they deserved for land production.
The one who was cruelly exploited in the end was Shudra, the untouchables of the untouchables. No one cared about their lives and death. If you could give a bite of food, you would be considered a mercy for the men.
This is the case in India controlled by Britain, so you can imagine what the colonies run by other rising powers will look like. In fact, most of them are like Dakar run by the French, with no construction plunder.
The army massacred the indigenous people, enslaved the primitive tribes, and snatched away the precious resources needed by Europe, such as gold, silver, jewelry, etc., without paying half a copper coin in the colony. Of course, the kings of the country who cooperated with them to loot their people could also get a little leftovers.
There may be some infrastructure investments left in the colony, but in the end it will also provide services to the colonists, rather than really wanting to change the fundamental appearance of the colony. Such a colonial concept that is completely plundering without any constructiveness is destined to be a shallow colonization, as Molière said.
The roots of Europeans cannot be planted at all, but they just float shallowly on the surface.
What Bai Layi showed today shocked Molière. He only understood Xiao Letian's true strategic core today. He finally understood what Xiao Letian wanted to use to fight against Western civilization.
Xiao Letian's eyes were more focused outside mainland China. He was more thinking about how to expand more colonies for China, rather than trying his best to get into the smelly cesspool of the Qing Dynasty to grab the little excrement left by his ancestors.
This is the pattern, this is the level of human heart! The Central Plains controlled by the Qing Dynasty, among the hundreds of millions of people, were ambitious and rebels, but the ideal of those people from beginning to end was to engage in civil war in the family business left by their ancestors and fight back and forth.
It's like a huge family, where everyone is crazy and smashing, looting and engaging in a civil war in the courtyard of a mansion. To put it bluntly, I want to fight for the position of the patriarch, and I just want to embrace all the family assets left by my ancestors for thousands of years into my arms.
But Xiao Letian is not. Although he also comes from this big family, he resolutely broke out and built a big country outside the mansion with bare hands.
This is not an exaggeration. When Xiao Letian went abroad for the first time and secretly came to Ryukyu, in the riot of 100,000 Chinese, Xiao Letian was able to say that he used his knife to use his fists, even his teeth and nails to defeat a bridge of all nations.
Molière suddenly realized that although he was a pervert, he was also a pervert with high IQ and smart. He recalled everything about Xiao Letian in the intelligence that he knew that only Xiao Letian in East Asia deserved the reputation of the King of Ten Thousand Kings.
Needless to say, just aiming at this huge mind, this kind of aura that can swallow the world, and the courage to fly in space and overlook all the people on earth, are already unattainable.
Compared with Xiao Letian's huge strategy, whether it is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Nian Army's turmoil, the invasion of Agubo, the entry of Manchu into the pass, and even all the ambitious people in the future... they can only be overshadowed by the bright moon like fireflies.
Isn’t it obvious which one is better or less than an enterprising man who only knows how to fight in the family industry?
Note: Book friends, don’t be unable to stand this temporary suffering. The current setback is to pave the way for the final victory. Be a little more focused. Don’t be unable to stand a little setback. You can’t be so fragile!
Yinlong is definitely a cool article, there is no doubt about this, but there are many types of cool articles! If you have to use some physical objects as an example, I think ordinary cool articles are a cup of cold and refreshing juice drink. The first sip to the last sip will be a sweet taste.
And the Yinlong of the Qing Dynasty is not, this is a cup of strong tea and a cup of original coffee. All the fragrance and sweetness are gradually produced with the bitterness when you first enter the mouth.
Without the bitterness before, how can you feel more interesting sweetness?
The situation in the plot shop has been very big recently. I can't spoil it too much, but everything is paved with the beginning, end and end.
The last time, this is the last time I made a small spoiler, which is very important. "This book is definitely not a popular Qing Dynasty! This is a book of rebellion! The Qing Dynasty will definitely be over in the end! It's just that Xiao Letian's rebellion method should be relatively rare. At least in the online literature industry, in the historical texts I have read, there has not been such a rebellion successful yet!"
Do you understand? This is the last spoiler. No one will ask me questions like this in the future.
If you want to enjoy the plot, then you can subscribe to the original book! This is practical information, no matter how fake it is, it is useless. In just one sentence, the higher the genuine subscription, the more motivation I will be!
"Taxes are collected, taxes are collected! Xiao Letian knocked on the door to collect taxes. The fellow villagers opened the door. The Chinese people collected war taxes. If they don't give it to me, they will let the water go... Oh, my fellow villagers, your daughter is pretty? If I don't pay the tax, I will rob the flower girl..."
Haha, the plot has been very exciting recently. I feel that every character has lived and is no longer under my control... Maybe this is the precursor to schizophrenia!
Chapter completed!
