Then Zhao Hao changed the topic and said seriously: "But the reason why I have located all nine cities on the coast instead of inland is that Taiwan is a miasma, and the further inland it gets, the worse it gets. . Especially in such a place with dense forests and swamps, rash large-scale immigration will definitely cause an outbreak of infectious diseases and claim the lives of thousands of people."
"That's it" Fatty Tang felt horrified and hugged his arms tightly. "Will the situation be better at the beach?"
"Of course it's much better." Zhao Hao nodded and said: "There is no forest on the seaside, the air is fresh, and it has been developed by aborigines for many years, so the miasma is certainly much lighter."
"Then it's better not to leave it here for now." Tang Youde followed the good advice.
"It doesn't matter if it is placed here, but the infrastructure must be improved first, especially the sewers. Rain and sewage must be diverted so that heavy rains do not flood and light rains do not accumulate water. We must also build enough toilets to ensure that feces goes to the toilets like in Kunshan. And Regularly eliminate rats and mosquitoes on a large scale to curb the occurrence of various infectious diseases from the source." Zhao Hao warned in a deep voice: "Of course there must be a strong medical department and epidemic prevention department. Remember, we want the people of Ming Dynasty to live happily. People who live are not left to die!"
"I understand, sir, don't worry, I will be careful." Tang Youde nodded heavily and did not dare to mention the establishment of a market here again. He pointed to the lower reaches of Dahan River and changed the subject: "By the way, sir, where is that plain? It looks much bigger than the Taipei Basin."
"It is much larger, but it is far inferior to the Taipei Basin with fertile land and abundant water." Zhao Hao shook his head slightly and said: "It is called Taoyuan Terrace. The land is mainly composed of red soil. The red soil is easy to compact, so rainfall cannot penetrate If you go down, the water will flow into the sea in vain. Therefore, the soil is dry and barren, and the harvest is very poor."
"That's a pity." Tang Youde sighed. This was the first time he had seen such a large and flat land in Taiwan.
"There is nothing to be regretful about. Just find a way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure." Zhao Hao already knew the countermeasures: "Taiwan has abundant rainfall, and farmers only need to dig more ponds in the fields to store rainwater. Moreover, the island of Taiwan is higher in the east and lower in the west, so there is no gap. Xiao, when the time comes, the management committee can also take the lead in building a dam to intercept the water of Dahan River, close the gate to store water in the rainy season, and divert water for irrigation in the dry season. By then, won¡¯t there be no worries about droughts and floods?¡±
"Wow" Tang Youde said with admiration: "Young master really knows everything and is omnipotent! With such courage and structure, he deserves to have such a big career!"
"Hey, don't say that. Even if I see farther, I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants." Zhao Hao said modestly.
The so-called giant does not refer to little Japan, but to the great working people. If you don¡¯t believe me, look at Taoyuan from a satellite map. It¡¯s densely packed and dotted with water reservoirs dug by locals.
Although the dam was indeed built during the Japanese occupation, Cao Jin, who brought Qingshuishui to the dam, had actually proposed a complete plan long ago. Just to clear things up, you know
??~~
After Mr. Zhao returned from Menga, the next day, the West Route Fleet left Tamsui and headed south as planned.
As for the East Fleet, they set off yesterday under the leadership of Wang Rulong.
The West Fleet took advantage of the north wind and headed south, and soon arrived at Taoyuan. What is surprising is that through the telescope, there are many aboriginal villages on the red land, and there is still smoke from cooking.
After asking the Ketagalan guide who accompanied the ship, I found out that the harvest of the land in Taoyuan was not good, and even the pirates were not willing to make a nest here. The aboriginal people heremainly the Ketagalan and Dajia people, have basically not been harassed, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.
Ninety miles south from Taoyuan, the scenery changes before your eyes. The broad plains transition into hills. Two rivers come from the distant mountains, forming a long and narrow plain shaped like a dustpan.
This is Hsinchu. Because it is an impact plain formed by two rivers, the land here is fertile and the water is abundant. And natural disasters rarely occur, making it a treasure trove.
Since it is a treasure land, someone must have taken it long ago.
Based on the confessions of the captured Japanese pirates and confirmed by the reconnaissance team that set off in advance, a group of pirates of unknown origin is entrenched here.
How can we allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the bed Cross out and replace it with, in the spirit of eliminating violence and keeping peace, the heroic navy officers and soldiers resolutely annihilated them.
The coast guard fleet fired several salvos, smashing the ships at the pier to pieces, and the sea master "Yi Yichai" who was entrenched in Hsinchu led the crowd to surrender.
An unscathed battle took less than half an hour from start to finish.
The losses suffered by the pirates were not great. Because the sea masters are very aware of current affairs, they will surrender and join the army as soon as they see that the enemy is too strong to defeat. Of course, except when the officers and soldiers come to fight, because the officers and soldiers will not give them a way to survive
 What a great guy, is that enough? "
"Enough, enough, enough!" Tang Youde was overjoyed when he heard this. A security squadron has two hundred people, and a security brigade includes five squadrons, which is a thousand people! A total of three thousand strictly trained and well-equipped security forces are an elite force wherever they are placed. Putting them on the island of Taiwan is actually a bit overkill.
"Young Master is so kind to us, Old Tang. If I don't do something good in Taiwan, I will jump into the sea and never see Mr. Jiangdong!"
"Haha, okay, this is what you said." Zhao Hao smiled and said to Secretary Ma, "Write this down."
"Young Master, I am so" Fatty Tang's chin trembled with fright, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, just take it as my military order."
"Hahaha, it's bright!" Zhao Hao happily patted his belly and said, "Don't be too nervous. The Eighteenth Society and Big Belly King in the Taichung Basin still belong to the Pingpu tribe who can communicate. And I heard that The leading villagers seem to be new immigrants from Fujian, and if you show them affection and influence them with benefit, and wave them with carrots and sticks, you may not be able to conquer them."
"In short, the attitude must be correct, the methods must be flexible, and"
"Try not to get your hands dirty." Tang Youde answered with a smile.
¡°Well done, you¡¯re all ready to answer.¡± Zhao Hao laughed loudly and said, ¡°That¡¯s right, then I¡¯ll just wait for the good news.¡±
ps. This is very difficult to write. I checked the information for many days. But it¡¯s worth it to help you learn about Taiwan. In addition, this paragraph is written briefly, because the natives on the island are really weak. Two thousand Dutch can rule most of Taiwan. There is absolutely no need to expand on the description. Let¡¯s get it done quickly so that we can get into the big plot. There is one more update, just a few hundred words short.
