Chapter 222 Definitely next time

On the way to the fields, Tang Dingquan met Wang Mazi and his mother-in-law from the same village.

A rural woman with a big butt that is good for fertility, but not very good-looking.

Rich old man Xu was put on trial, and Tang Dingquan got a big advantage, but Wang Mazi's luck was not so good.

The land he rented belonged to the wealthy old man Zhao's family in the next village.

Rich old man Zhao believed in Buddhism and was always willing to do charity and had an excellent reputation in the countryside.

If any family can't afford to pay the rent on weekdays, they can get a reprieve for a while if they talk to Mr. Zhao.

There is also a lot of work to be done in repairing roads, building bridges, and supporting the countryside!

The public trial of the Liberation Army definitely could not bring Mr. Zhao to trial.

Therefore, Wang Mazi is still a member of the extremely poor class.

"Brother Wang, what are you doing?"

When Tang Dingquan saw Wang Mazi going out with a backpack on his back, he chased after him with the wind at his feet and asked.

Wang Mazi said with a sad look on his face.

"Our family doesn't have any land. We also have many brothers and sisters, and we can hardly support them!"

"My eldest brother went to join the army and became a soldier. The court gave him Anjia land."

"But Anjia's fields are in Luzon. My father asked me to take my wife to Luzon and help my eldest brother take care of those fields so that they don't go unused."

In Wang Mazi's opinion, going to Luzon is like leaving home!

People who leave their hometown are humble, but when they go to Luzon, they will be bullied to death!

Tang Dingquan patted Wang Mazi on the shoulder and said comfortingly.

"Brother Wang, don't be so pessimistic, this is not necessarily a bad thing!"

"You left your hometown and went to Luzon to help your elder brother take care of Anjia's land. When he retires from the army in the future, why don't you get a few acres of it from you?"

"If he doesn't share a few acres of your good land, can your father spare him?"

Wang Mazi heard this and thought about it for a while.

Although my father is old-fashioned, he has always treated his brothers and sisters with a straight face.

My mood suddenly improved a little!

With a rough mood, Wang Mazi took his mother-in-law on the road to Luzon.

Tang Dingquan continued to go to the ground.

Thinking that these fields would be his own in the future, he worked harder and harder.

Drops of sweat fell into the soil, but he didn't feel tired at all.

There are many fewer people in the countryside today than usual.

Some young men and women went to enlist in the army.

There are also many people who choose to work at the court's construction sites and factories to make money to support their families.

After a fierce ideological struggle, more landless farmers simply patted their butts and decided to immigrate to Luzon to live a better life!

The outflow of a large amount of labor has greatly alleviated Qiongzhou's original acute land conflict!

And more importantly, as the number of landless farmers in Qiongzhou decreased, the landlords and gentry began to actively reduce rents and interest rates in order to retain their tenants.



In the early morning, Qiongzhou Island is filled with a layer of mist, which dissipates the heat in the air and replaces it with a touch of coolness that no one can refuse.

Zhu Hongyu opened his eyes from his sleep and looked at the pretty beauty beside his pillow.

I secretly thought in my heart, Wenwen Township is the Tomb of Heroes, my ancestors will not deceive me!

Ever since he took in the girl Wenwen, Zhu Hongyu has been late for several days in a row.

Although according to modern parlance, it was only early seven o'clock, for Zhu Hongyu, it was already too late.

Shaking his head, he secretly swore that he would get up early tomorrow and not let himself sink any further.

Just when he was about to get up, the girl beside the pillow opened her sleepy eyes. The charming look of a beauty just waking up made Zhu Hongyu move his index finger.

In an instant, he convinced himself!

Definitely next time!

Then, he turned over and pressed the beauty underneath him...

After the clouds and rain cleared, Zhu Hongyu got dressed and went to the front hall to have breakfast.

But Wenwen couldn't bear the conquest and fell into a deep sleep again.

He didn't really care. While eating breakfast, he listened to his secretary's report on what he had to deal with today.

"Your Highness, a fleet from Luzon has arrived today!"

"Sir Luo Wenzaoluo, the officials transferred from various ministries by the cabinet, as well as relevant personnel from the recruitment department under the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, as well as the technical backbone of the arsenal, etc., will all arrive today."

Zhu Hongyu put down the bun in his hand and said.

"Ask someone to prepare a welcoming ceremony, and I will go and greet you personally!"

If the Liberation Army wanted to establish a stable rule in Qiongzhou, it would be necessary to transfer manpower from Luzon.

The reason why Luo Wenzao was transferred to Qiongzhou was because Ming Dynasty was planning to attack Macau next.

After Zhu Hongyu and Zheng Chenggong discussed it, in order to reinforce the anti-Qing rebels in South Australia, the selected target was Macau.

One is for the Portuguese cannon foundry in Bugarao in Macau and Macau as a trading center.

Secondly, Macau is not far from Guangzhou!

The warships could even sail down the Pearl River and directly reach the city of Guangzhou.

After the Ming army captured Macau and then sneaked around the city of Guangzhou, they couldn't believe that Shang Kexi still had the intention to continue to encircle and suppress the anti-Qing rebels in Nan'ao and other places.

Luo Wenzao has lived in Macau for most of his life. If he leads the way, it will be much easier for the Ming army to attack Macau.

After Luo Wenzao's three views were shattered by the bad things that caused him to be driven out by the Catholic Church, he is now full of disgust for Catholicism.

By the way, I also have no good impression of the Portuguese!

The Ming army asked him to lead the attack on Macau, and Luo Wenzao responded very positively without any hesitation.

The purpose of transferring officials from various ministries under the cabinet is to establish a stable ruling order in Qiongzhou and to fill the vacancies of officials.

The purpose of mobilizing manpower in the Recruitment Department is to establish a recruit camp in Qiongzhou and expand the scale of recruitment.

The purpose of transferring technical backbones from the arsenal was to build an arsenal nearby after the development of the Shilu Iron Mine to meet the large-scale expansion of the Liberation Army in Qiongzhou.

In fact, no matter in terms of population structure, level of development, or natural resources, etc...

Except for the fact that the landowners and gentry in Qiongzhou are too powerful.

Qiongzhou is more suitable than Luzon as the foundation for the Liberation Army’s Northern Expedition to the Continent!

If not for the fact that Qiongzhou is too close to the battlefield on the mainland, with only a strait separating it.

Zhu Hongyu was worried that if the Ming army's Northern Expedition and the war with the Manchus went unfavorably, Qiongzhou would not be able to be saved.

Perhaps he simply ordered the ruling core of the military government to move from Luzon to Qiongzhou!

The secretary bowed and accepted the order, then left to prepare for the reception.



Now, the war in Qiongzhou has been calmed down.

The Qing troops on the island either surrendered or were completely wiped out.

With the progress of the inventory of Dingkou and land clearing, the local governance order was gradually established.

All units of the Liberation Army have also been repaired and are ready to go into battle at any time.

Zhu Hongyu knew that he would wait until he settled things in Qiongzhou.

After arranging the development of Shilu Iron Mine, the arsenal and the recruit camp, etc.

The Ming Dynasty will officially launch its Northern Expedition to the Mainland!

To say that he wasn't nervous would be a lie.

Once the Ming army makes its northern expedition to the mainland, it will be the main force of the Qing army that they will face, not the useless Green Camp in Qiongzhou.

He had no idea how the battle would turn out!
