    ,

    In the Heilongjiang and Songhua River basins, most of the indigenous boats are canoes.

    Even when the Manchu Qing conquered the Daur people, they ordered the local tribes to provide a number of canoes to accompany the army. As the Manchu Qing strengthened its control over the Songhua River Basin, in order to facilitate the shipment of pearls and mink, they finally built a slightly larger  The tribes in the Songhua River Basin followed suit.

    In two years, Anton Duhufu (Heilongjiang Dusi) built more than 100 ships.

    The Andong navy troops were also compiled and trained. The officers and soldiers were directly transferred from the post post system, because many of the officials in the post post system were dismissed officers and soldiers of the Yangtze River navy.  In the past, I was between farmers and water bandits, and I have long developed a tradition of loving groups and being fierce and aggressive.

    ?From Tieling to Harbin, there are five waterway stations along the way. From Harbin to Tongjiang, there are four waterway stations along the way. From Tongjiang to Hailanpao, there are three waterway stations along the way.

    ? There are very few people in each post station. Post officials plus post soldiers, even counting family members, will not exceed ten people. The settlement allowance is sufficient, not to mention that there are additional subsidies. The further north you go, the higher the subsidy fee.

    The post station also functions as a trading station. The nearby tribes will send special products such as fur and pearls. A small part is tribute (disguised taxation) and must be handed over to the Anton Governor's Mansion; most of them are commodities and are usually stored in  Post station, waiting for merchants to buy.

    ?Don't look at Heilongjiang's remoteness and bitter cold, but there are many people who are willing to do business.

    They are all small-scale traveling merchants, bringing cloth, tea, iron pots, food and other commodities, and transporting them to various post stations in exchange for furs and pearls. Instead, they are silver dollars and copper coins, which are not widely accepted yet, and have to wait for the population to increase  \The currency value can only be reflected after the trade volume increases.

    The establishment of this post station and trade system rapidly deepened the relationship between the imperial court and the aborigines.

    Merchants can earn money, and natives can also obtain daily necessities. The Dufu Mansion also collects a symbolic tax (in the form of tribute). Even the post officials and post soldiers have a small amount of money to fish for. As long as they don¡¯t earn much, the Duhu Mansion will surely  Open your eyes and close your eyes.

    In the next few years, the station system will continue to extend eastward, from Tongjiang to Sakhalin Island.

    As long as the amount of tribute is not set too high, as long as the price of the goods is not too high, the tribes in the Northeast will not rebel. Even, whoever dares to attack the post station will definitely become the target of public criticism. It is the only channel for the indigenous people to obtain materials from the Han!

    Zhang Tingxun set off with the grain transport team, which was actually the Anton Navy.

    The ships of the Anton Navy have a displacement of only 50-100 tons. The tonnage is much larger than that of the Cossack ships, but they do not run so fast. The main task is to transport troops, food and goods.

    Under the readjustment of the imperial court, the displacement of ships is no longer based on "material" but "tons". There are tools for calculating displacement in docks everywhere.  Directly, Cao Chong said that he applied heavy objects like an elephant.

    And "ton" is a weight unit named by the emperor himself and appeared out of thin air.

    1 ton = 10 stones = 1000 catties = 16000 taels = 160000 coins = 1600000 points.

    It can be clearly seen that for the convenience of statistics, Emperor Zhao changed the "stone". In the past, 1 stone was equal to 120 catties, but now 1 stone is changed to 100 catties, and the intermediate conversion unit was canceled"  Jun " (1 stone is equal to 4 Jun, and 1 Jun is equal to 30 catties).

    The conversion of jin to 16 is advanced, and Emperor Zhao also intends to change it.

    ? However, the change was too drastic, the currency system had to be adjusted accordingly, and the scales in the hands of the people had to be replaced with new ones. Faced with opposition from the government and the opposition, Emperor Zhao could only choose to compromise.

    At night, the fleet stopped at the station wharf.

    The pier was repaired very poorly, so the ground was leveled and some planks were erected by the river.

    ?The post station is even simpler, all low houses of rammed earth. The walls are filled with withered grass, and the roof is also covered with withered grass, so that it can prevent the cold in winter.

    Soldiers helped build this kind of simple earthen house, and the few people in the post station were not enough.

    ? A great cause begins, and everything is kept simple.

    The postmen came out to meet them with postmen, they were unable to provide food, they just came out to say hello.

    Several sacks of grain were brought down, and Yicheng was very happy, and said to Hou Rusong, the general of the grain transport team, "General Hou, the leather and pearls for the first half of the year have been collected enough for tribute (taxation)."  "

    " Thank you Brother Pei,"Hou Rusong handed over a cigar,"Gannan¡¯s high-quality goods, I usually don¡¯t want to smoke them, let¡¯s have a taste."

    "The general is generous!" Yicheng smiled happily.

    Whether it is the navy or the post, they all came from the same system in the past, and now they are all thrown to the northeast. The relationship between them is very harmonious.

    Hou Rusong turned his head and asked Zhang Tingxun: "Do you want a cigar, my little prince?"

    Zhang Tingxun is very fond of this title.Feeling, he took the cigar and said with a smile: "The general should call me by my name."

    Hou Rusong introduced: "Brother Pei, this is Zhang Tingxun, the son of Dudu Zhang's family."  Captain." Zhang Tingxun became more depressed the more he listened.

    Yicheng said again: "See you, Captain Zhang." "It's easy to say, Pei Yicheng is polite." Zhang Tingxun then returned the greeting.

    Yi Cheng asked: "Did you bring any newspapers?" Hou Rusong said: "I have brought them, they are all old newspapers from last year."

    " As long as there are newspapers, no matter whether they are new or old. " Yicheng is even more happy.

    The post stations in the Heilongjiang and Songhua River basins are now equipped with only three small fast boats for each station. All materials need to be transported by the navy, and the fast boats at the post stations are used to convey military information.

    The post officials and post soldiers will also cultivate their own land, but they mainly grow vegetables, and the grain fields still need to be reclaimed slowly.

    Even the food in Harbin was shipped from Liaoning, and then transported from Harbin to the stations along the way. The consumption on the way accounted for a large proportion. Therefore, it is impossible to station large troops in the Heilongjiang River Basin, and the logistical burden is too heavy.

    When the various tribes resume agricultural production, they will start to collect taxes in kind on the farmland along the river, and the tribute of fur and Dongzhu will be cancelled.

    The sailors went ashore to set up pots to make food, and the Yicheng Shan invited Hou Rusong, Zhang Tingxun, and several other officers into the house to eat.

    Very simple rice and vegetables, and some cured meat.

    Meat comes from postmen hunting in their leisure time. The postmen here are equipped with a full set of armor. Once encountering a war, they immediately put on cotton armor and fight with muskets and waist knives.

    Yicheng took out the wine jar, and was about to smash the seal, Hou Rusong stopped him and said: "You save it for winter, don't drink it up now."

    "There are, some are, and some are prepared."Yicheng smiled. Hou Rusong said to the other officers:"Pay the money!"

    Including Zhang Tingxun, everyone paid out one after another. Zhang Tingxun paid out copper coins, and the rest all took out military tickets.

    Yicheng quickly refused: "No way, no way, they are all my brothers." "You work hard here, I can't let you spend money. "Hou Rusong insisted on giving the money.

    The post station in Datong Xin Dynasty does not provide free meals, and this meal is obviously a treat for the post. The post station here was just established last autumn, and it is harder than the soldiers in Harbin.

    In the end, he gave the money and forced it into the hands of Yi Cheng.

    Waiting for everyone to fill their stomachs and go out to chat, the postmen and postmen called their wives to eat the leftovers. Because there are meat and meat, they are leftovers, and they are better than the usual meals.

    Their children were not picked up, and they were thrown in their hometown to be taken care of by relatives.

    Li Zheng is currently applying to the imperial court to send in more doctors. Even apprentices who have not yet graduated from the teacher will do. Try to assign doctors to each post station, and even work as a midwife part-time in the future. And with doctors, the popularity of the post station will also increase.  If it is more prosperous, the aborigines nearby will definitely come to seek medical treatment and medicine, and the connection between the aborigines and the Han people will be closer.

    At this time, it was getting dark, and the postmen picked up the newspapers that had just been delivered, and read last year's outdated news with relish.

    They were sailors in the past, and the army had deblinding classes, so they could read a few words more or less. But it was still a bit difficult to read the newspaper, and they often came to ask Yicheng what he meant when they were halfway through the reading.

    ? They are not passionate about knowledge, nor are they trying to broaden their knowledge, they are simply thrown into a bitter cold place, wanting to get more information about Han.

    After reading the newspaper, it feels like returning to the customs.

    ? Seeing that Zhang Tingxun had no airs of aristocrats, Yicheng took the initiative to ask about Nanjing anecdotes.

    Zhang Tingxun laughed and said: "The biggest news in the south is that the crown prince is going to choose a concubine. Do you know how to choose a concubine?"

    Even Hou Rusong was interested, and hurriedly asked: "How did you choose?"

    Zhang Tingxun said: "Must have graduated from middle school. Ten candidates from each province will be selected and sent to Nanjing for re-selection. The first step of re-selection is to take an exam. If the exam is too poor, it means that the local officials are cheating and sent to Nanjing."  The ones here are not female high school graduates at all!"

    "Hahaha,"Hou Rusong laughed loudly, "This is really strange, the crown prince also has to take the test when choosing a concubine."

    Yicheng's eyes brightened: "Then it doesn't mean that the daughters of us frontier soldiers, as long as they can graduate from middle school, can also have the opportunity to be the concubine of the Tian family?"

    "Then you should give birth to a daughter as soon as possible," Hou Rusong teased, "  They are about the same age, so there will be a chance to marry into the heavenly family in the future."amp;quot;

    Yi Cheng happily said: "Tomorrow I will have a good job with my wife." " Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed.

    Over there in Harbin, a school is going to be built, but for the time being it is too late because there are no children at all.

    In the future, the children of the post stations along the way can be sent to school. The primary school must be free, and the secondary school will increase the number of public-funded students. This is also a preferential treatment for the border soldiers.

    There was a lively chat here, and the postmen stopped reading the newspapers, and gathered around to listen to Zhang Tingxun's lecture on Nanjing anecdotes.

    Zhang Tingxun is not good at reading, but he is good at telling stories, and he only tells interesting stories about high-ranking officials and noble families. A certain official, who is henpecked, was chased into the street by his wife with a broom. A certain dude was caught when the government raided the casino, and his parents felt that  Disgraceful, beaten in the street when fined and paid.

    Where have the frontier soldiers heard of these secrets?

    ?When it was getting dark, everyone still had something to say and respected Zhang Tingxun as a top storyteller.

    Zhang Tingxun also found happiness here, he likes to deal with the soldiers, unlike when he was in Nanjing, there were so many rules, as if he was a bird that flew out of the cage.Le Dao: "Tomorrow I will work hard with my wife." " Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed.
