Chapter 290: Open Province Luzon

The Luzon Islands were already under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty. Because of their expansion experience, when they attacked Luzon, administrative officials were ready in Taiwan.&1t;/p>

The Spanish were defeated, and the Luzon Islands had been completely taken over by the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty's administrative officials also arrived at the Luzon Islands and began to destroy the indigenous ruling structure. Of course, the meal had to be eaten one bite at a time, and many islands were still managed by indigenous people. However, on the Luzon Island, such a policy was first implemented, which was to kick the original indigenous rulers away and the Ming government directly managed the indigenous people. At the same time, some indigenous people or Han people living in Luzon communicated with the indigenous people.&1t;/p>

In order to protect the security of the Han people in Luzon and not be harmed by the indigenous people, the Ming government immediately issued a strict criminal law after it began to administer in Luzon, and those indigenous people who committed crimes against the Han people would be severely punished. At the same time, the military cooperated and stationed troops in various places. While protecting the safety of the Han people, the weapons of destruction in the hands of the indigenous people were strictly controlled. The crossbows and firearms were not allowed by the indigenous people, and at the same time they were attacked and suppressed those indigenous forces that did not obey discipline.&1t;/p>

There must be some indigenous people who are disobedient in discipline, especially the Ming Dynasty's official administration directly administered Luzon, rather than through indigenous rulers. However, the resistance of those indigenous peoples could not shake the Ming Dynasty's dominance over Luzon, it had nothing to do with virtue. Instead, it was crushed in power.&1t;/p>

The indigenous people have no culture, no productivity, and are still very lazy. If the Ming Dynasty wanted to suppress the indigenous people who were in chaos, it would be easier to wipe out them as long as the indigenous people did not blindly engage in guerrilla warfare. However, the indigenous people have little culture and they do not have a complete theory in guerrilla warfare.&1t;/p>

This is a height of civilization.&1t;/p>

Virtue, power, and wisdom are the three major elements that determine the victory of the war summarized by the ancients. However, the indigenous people are much worse than the Ming Dynasty in terms of virtue, power, or wisdom. So no matter how these indigenous people resist, they are destined to be unable to twist their arms.&1t;/p>

Of course, during the Ming Dynasty's external expansion, Zhu Youxiao had clearly required that massacres, traitors (harmonious) lust, robbery, robbery and other acts that damage their good deeds.&1t;/p>

But for those natives who resisted the rule of the Ming Dynasty, that's different. This world is the prey of the weak. To wipe out those natives who disobey the rule will not harm their good deeds.&1t;/p>

Therefore, those natives who resisted the rule of the Ming Dynasty were destined to be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty. Their equipment and military qualities were too poor, and they were vulnerable to the regular army of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, these natives were not united, and they were easy to bribe, and were still very lazy.&1t;/p>

The investigation team sent by Zhu Youxiao stayed in Taiwan for more than half a month before leaving for Luzon.&1t;/p>

It was already late July of the lunar calendar when it arrived.&1t;/p>

After the investigation team arrived, it immediately conducted a related investigation into the massacre of the Han people during the Wanli period. It did not take long for the past to come, and many people still have deep memories. After investigation, the Bureau of Investigation immediately found a large number of indigenous rulers who participated in the massacre. At the same time, it also found out many indigenous people who participated in the massacre.&1t;/p>

However, the Spanish are the masterminds of massacre of the Han people, but many Spanish have been transferred back to their homeland, especially the Spanish governor to the Philippines.&1t;/p>

Since I have been transferred back, I will naturally vent my anger with the current Spanish governor to the Philippines. I have to pull out a few to comfort the slaughtered Han people in heaven. At the same time, I must tell everyone through practical actions that there is no good end to massacre Han people.&1t;/p>

In order to capture those indigenous people who participated in the massacre, the government issued a reward order to encourage indigenous people to expose the indigenous people who participated in the massacre, and there will be rewards after the exposition.&1t;/p>

For a moment, the greed of the natives exploded. Soon the government received a large number of reports and reports. The government transferred the army to various places to carry out arrests, regardless of whether they participated in the massacre or not. They arrested them first.&1t;/p>

After being arrested, verify it one by one.&1t;/p>

After all, the massacre was a group activity, so it was relatively easy to verify. Moreover, these indigenous people who participated in the massacre all have a common age characteristic, that is, they are not young.&1t;/p>

After a lot of arrests, tens of thousands of indigenous people were arrested. After verification, more than 3,000 people were released. More than 7,000 people were determined to be involved in the massacre that year. These indigenous people were dragged to the outskirts of Manila and shot.&1t;/p>

Because a large number of indigenous people were shot, the execution ground outside Manila soon became "bloody flowed into a river", which made those indigenous people frightened.&1t;/p>

Hundreds of Spanish colonists who were caught out and brought back to the capital were investigated and brought back to the capital. These Spanish colonists would be sentenced to the people of Ming Dynasty in their hometowns.&1t;/p>

Just as the investigation team was thoroughly investigating the massacre, an exploration team of the gold army also came to Luzon and established a "Nanyang Gold Exploration Bureau" in Luzon, and began to explore gold everywhere in the South China Sea, and under the protection of the army, explore Borneo.&1t;/p>

Borneo is currently occupied by no colonists. Although the land in Borneo is relatively barren, it has gold and oil. Later Brunei was located in Borneo. In addition, Borneo has the largest tropical rainforest besides the Brazilian rainforest.&1t;/p>

The colonial activities of Borneo were also included in the navy's plan. Even if the land was poorer, it would be impossible to open up some strongholds along the coast and occupy the islands. Such a large first place, even if the land was poorer, had a lot of resources. The transportation in the coastal areas was relatively convenient, and it was impossible for Han people to immigrate to Borneo to become poor people in the mountainous areas.&1t;/p>

The mining of gold was a matter of the central government of the court, but the local colonial interests of Luzon were considered by the local governments. They took over the Spanish colonial achievements in Luzon. At this time, many of the plantations had been exhibited on the Luzon Islands. Many of these plantations were from the Han people, but many of them became Spanish after the massacres during the Wanli period.&1t;/p>

The Spanish are finished, and these plantations have become official assets of the Ming Dynasty.&1t;/p>

At the same time, there are still a group of Han plantations in Luzon, and these Han-owned plantations will naturally not move. However, those native-owned plantations will suffer.&1t;/p>

The Ming government directly introduced tax policies for indigenous planters, imposed heavy taxes on indigenous planters, and would never give up until they were poor.&1t;/p>

The government can directly charge taxes for these opened plantations. A lot of pepper, rice, cotton, and sugarcane can be produced every year.&1t;/p>

These days, Luzon also has cotton planting. Of course, coconuts and other things are indispensable in tropical areas.&1t;/p>

For the Ming Dynasty, pepper can indeed make money, and the country has a relatively broad market. It is also possible to grow pepper. However, what Ming Dynasty needs more is rice and cotton.&1t;/p>

Therefore, the official taxes imposed on plantations are different. Plantations that plant rice and cotton charge the lowest tax. The higher one is sugarcane plantation, while pepper plantation has the highest tax. Such a tax policy is mainly to encourage rice and cotton plantation, and of course it is not a single blow to kill the pepper plantation industry. It only balances the pepper plantation industry and rice. The cotton planting income will not be too big, so as to avoid planting too much pepper.&1t;/p>

If you don’t eat pepper, you won’t die, but if you don’t have food, you won’t have cotton coats to keep you cold, you will die.&1t;/p>

At the same time, Han people are encouraged to reclaim more plantations. The government has introduced a three-year tax exemption policy for new plantations. Plantations less than 300 acres do not need to pay any fees to be reclaimed. If more than 300 acres, land purchase payment is required to be paid to the government. The larger the plantation area, the higher the land purchase payment, but it is not over the normal price range.&1t;/p>

Because Luzon is a place where indigenous people live, the policy adopted here is the policy of the Han people to highly annex the land, so the court is not afraid of land annexation.&1t;/p>

This is naturally not possible in the local area. Highly annexed land by landowners will cause severe social problems, but it is a different matter in Nanyang.&1t;/p>

After all, Nanyang is located in the tropical region, and the indigenous people have a small appetite. They don’t need to wear any cotton coat to keep warm. There is no problem of land annexation here, but the indigenous people will not open land, and a large amount of land is in an unopened state.&1t;/p>

As long as Luzon is opened, the court's fiscal and tax revenue will obviously increase again. The most important thing is that after the resources here are opened, it can provide more necessary resources for the people of the Ming Dynasty for life, so that more people of the Ming Dynasty can survive in this world with constant natural disasters.&1t;/p>

The defeated Spanish were obviously tragic. The Philippine Governor was pulled out to the tank and was quickly taken to the capital.&1t;/p>

When these Spanish people were escorted to the capital, it was already the ninth month of the lunar calendar.&1t;/p>

The snow in Yan'an Prefecture was three months old and it only stopped until the ninth month of the lunar calendar. It was already the late autumn of another year. Because the rural labor force in Yan'an Prefecture was mobilized to work on the construction site, the people of Yan'an Prefecture earned food and wages, enough to survive the cold winter and the next year when the weather was in trouble.&1t;/p>

The locust plague in Jinan Prefecture was also successfully extinguished under the mobilization of the government. The Jinan region of Shandong Province also immigrated to the Northeast region. Work-for-relief also allowed the people of Jinan Prefecture to survive until next summer harvest. At the same time, Shandong is a coastal province after all, and sea transportation is constantly expanding at this time. Local food supply is not a problem at all, and there is no longer a problem of insufficient food supply.&1t;/p>

The disaster situation on both sides has been settled. Zhu Youxiao is busy building his summer resort in Chengde, and will immediately move the position after the New Year is released next year.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao felt that he had to run away because the Apocalypse explosion was about to be born! He could no longer remember the exact time of the Apocalypse explosion. But it should be like these two years. It seems that in history, the Apocalypse explosion killed more than 20,000 people in Wanggong Factory, and the explosion caused a prince to die.&1t;/p>

This made Wang Gong Factory a forbidden place that Zhu Youxiao would never go to. At the same time, Zhu Youxiao gritted his teeth and started a forced demolition project in Wang Gong Factory.&1t;/p>

Under the name of the Construction Research Institute, Zhu Youxiao ordered the expropriation of Wang Gongchang's land. He paid the expropriation payment and gave it according to the general market price.&1t;/p>

So the entire Wanggong Factory was recruited by Zhu Youxiao, and those who were unwilling to move were also ordered to demolish it by Zhu Youxiao. At the same time, he planned to run away because Wanggong Factory was still too close to the palace. If there was a big explosion there, what if he was hit to death by something falling from his head?&1t;/p>

So Zhu Youxiao sent someone to Chengde to build a summer resort, which didn't need to be too luxurious. Anyway, you can live and work, and you plan to run away early next spring.&1t;/p>

As for Wang Gongchang, it was surrounded by a fence by Zhu Youxiao, and became a forbidden area that no one could enter, so as not to be killed by the big explosion.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao’s land acquisition at Wanggong Factory was obviously a thankless act. During the demolition, the powerful and powerful complained, thinking that their construction at Wanggong Factory was not included in the land acquisition subsidy. The people also complained, but the complaints were not very strong.&1t;/p>

If Wang Gongchang explodes in the future, there will be people who will obviously say that Zhu Youxiao angered God or something. Zhu Youxiao had expected this urinary nature, but he still did it.&1t;/p>

If he didn't know, there was nothing to say. Since he knew that Wang Gongchang was going to have a strange explosion, he could not watch the tens of thousands of people being killed by the nose, right?&1t;/p>

The Ming Dynasty has suffered many disasters these days. Zhu Youxiao can only minimize losses and avoid natural disasters*.&1t;/p>

The court officials didn't quite understand what the emperor wanted to do in Wanggong Factory, but Zhu Youxiao was not a foolish emperor after all. If he wanted to have any interests, he would just do whatever he wanted.&1t;/p>

"Report to Your Majesty, the Spanish Governor to the Philippines, and hundreds of generals of all sizes and hundreds of all under his command, were escorted to Beijing yesterday. It was almost autumn, and it was a good time to ask for the death of the dead in a few days." Xu Zhaokui, the Minister of Justice, submitted a report during the morning court.&1t;/p>

Xu Zhaokui is a non-party official and has not joined the Han Imperial Party. In a court where there are now all Han Imperial Party officials, there is only one person who can serve as the Minister of State.&1t;/p>

The reason why Xu Zhaokui can gain a foothold is mainly because this person can enforce the law impartially. Moreover, as a judicial department, the Ministry of Justice has a non-party official to serve as the Minister of the Shangshu, so Zhu Youxiao left Xu Zhaokui.&1t;/p>

"According to my beloved, these Spanish barbarians were killed and told the world to comfort the 30,000 people who died tragically overseas." Zhu Youxiao made a decision without hesitation. These Spanish people would chop them as soon as they wanted. As the most civilized country in the world today, the Ming Dynasty naturally had no diplomatic concerns to deal with the Spanish.&1t;/p>

"Your Majesty's Holy Majesty." Xu Zhaokui immediately retreated to the queue.&1t;/p>

"Report to Your Majesty, since the imperial court has captured Luzon, our Ming Dynasty should open another province to facilitate jurisdiction." An official from the Ministry of Personnel made a recommendation.&1t;/p>

"Accurate." Zhu Youxiao agreed.&1t;/p>
