The sixth year of Zhenguan, on the eighth day of the fifth month.

Qin Lang led the navy fleet to land at the Danshui River Estuary. As early as a few years ago, the Qin family landed here and purchased a piece of land at the mouth from the Pingdi tribe here, established a shopping mall here, and traded with the French people.

After that, slaves, craftsmen and others were transported to build tic-shaped camps here, and eight villages surrounded a shopping mall in the middle.

After several years of operation, this camp has become larger and larger. The eight small villages have changed from small villages with only a few dozen people to solid villages with hundreds of people. The shopping mall in the middle has also been expanded into a castle.

Inside, there are warehouses, schools, guard camps, and even Dragon King Temple, Society Official Temple, etc.

By this year, there were more than 3,000 people here, most of whom were slaves transported by the Qin family, who reclaimed fields and cultivated farms, and some were poor people recruited from Fujian and other places. Each of them gave three thousand yuan to settle the house and chartered the boat fee. Later, the three of them gave a cow.

With the trade of camphor incense, deer skin, etc., this camp once flourished and attracted many foreigners to trade every year.

But trade has been suspended for half a year this year.

No merchant ship has come for a long time.

When the huge fleet arrived, everyone from Tamsui Village came to watch and greet them.

In the eight villages and a fort, more than 3,000 people rushed to the beach. In the past six months, the people in Tamsui Village have been very uneasy, especially the people in Lingnan, Fujian who came to reclaim the fields, have the idea of ​​returning home. Although the climate here is pleasant, the land is fertile, the rain is sufficient, and the rice and sugarcane are harvested, apart from the land rent given to the Qin family, they can still lose a lot in a year.

Originally, some people were even persuaded by the Qin family to write to their families and let their families move over to settle down. The Qin family had very generous conditions for settling down, including car and horse fees and settlement fees, and they would directly divide the land when they came.

The refusal of selling camphor for many people to dispel this idea. Once the conflict arose, these thousands of people will be unable to survive on this island.

Now, such a huge fleet has arrived, and people can't help but feel happy and almost burst into tears.

The chief manager of Tamsui Village on the island had already received the notice, and had just arrived in Fuqing a few days ago to meet Qin Lang. He had to give face-to-face advice and return early, so he had already brought people to prepare for the welcome.

"The barracks have been prepared and the meals have been prepared."

"Does the King of Fan know we'll come?"

"No one knows."

Half of Taiwan Island is mountains, and the plains are basically on the west coast, mainly concentrated in the central and southwest areas. In fact, there are not many plains in the north.

But for this era, the northern plains were actually large enough. For example, the Yilan Plain in the northeast corner was an equilateral triangle with a side length of about 60 miles.

Taipei is actually a basin and the second largest basin in Taidao. The surrounding area of ​​the basin is about 150 miles long, much larger than the Yilan Plain.

However, at this time, this fertile basin still seemed a little deserted.

This is an undeveloped swamp, full of jungle thatch.

The people living here are the Pingdi people who traveled to and from canoes and lived a traditional life of fishing and hunting. In these indigenous languages, this place is called Dajiao, which means a flat and soaked place.

And around the basin, mountain people live.

Because the familials living on flat ground have a tradition of trading with foreign merchants, they are also called Maifans. The mountain tribes in the mountains are more fierce and have less contact with outsiders, and are also called Shengfans.

In this regard, it is similar to the southwest Lingnan and other places, and is also divided into raw and mature species by the Han people.

Although the Qin family had been operating in the Danshui River mouth for several years at this time, they only occupied a small point. In the eyes of those people, this was the place for merchants in the Central Plains to sell goods, and it was outsiders, that's all.

In the name of trade, the Qin family also visited the surrounding area and knew that at the southeast foot of the basin, there was a natural deep-water port surrounded by mountains on three sides, named Jilong Port. In the southwest of the basin, there was also an extremely open plain.

It was a large grassland and wasteland, and because it was covered with crude weeds, it was called the Tiger Grain Field.

Liangzhuang, the chief manager of Danshui Village from Shuofang, lived in the poor Gobi area since childhood. In addition to the Gobi area, there was a desert, and the water was all depended on God. Every family built a water cellar, and they couldn't bear to waste a drop of rain. There were either stones or sand in the ground.

Therefore, he went out to study for an apprentice at a young age. Later, he was lucky enough to join the Qin family to work, and then went to Chang'an, and then to Jiangnan, Fujian, and then to this treasure island, where he was responsible for this village.

"This place is good, with good weather and fertile soil. Just sort it out and it will be a fertile field. Dig a few ditches so you don't have to worry about lack of water. Such a good land, but those animals can't farm at all. They only know that hunting and fishing is really a waste of resources."

Speaking of this, Manager Liang couldn't help but sigh that such a good place can make a lot of money in any way, but the barbarians don't understand.

The Qin family brought commercial goods, and they liked everything, but they might not have many things to exchange for, such as deer skin and antlers. Later, the Qin family taught them to make camphor, but these guys made some money and now they still want to raise the price.

Just double the greedy guy.

"Sanlang, this basin alone can accommodate at least 100,000 people. In addition, the two plains on the east and south can accommodate forty or five hundred thousand people. Together, they all reach the Guanzhong Plain."

"What a great land, we can't withdraw it. We finally built this foundation."

"Since I'm here, of course I won't give up. Since the fans are unwilling to cooperate, there is no need to be polite to them."

Qin Lang brought six or seven thousand people, and wanted to expand its business scale here based on the Danshui River estuary.

"The guys may not be willing."

The Qin family now occupied this land from the foreign department. They bought this place with them using a ship of goods. Although it was also a large area, it has basically been reclaimed now.

The Qin family had bought land from the fan club several times before, but the fans also learned to be smart. They thought that strange goods were so popular that they refused to sell land easily anymore and were only willing to rent it.

Now the fan proposed to take back the land sold to the Qin family before, because the price was sold too cheaply unless the Qin family made up for the price difference, but the price difference was too harsh.

Boats docked one by one, and people came down from the boat and moved countless supplies off the boat.

Huansi Island Mason got off the boat and looked at the place that had been transformed by the Qin family, and felt both strange and familiar.

He kneeled down and kissed the land.

Qin Lang saw the Huansi Island Mat who had just got off the boat and kissed the land in a somewhat simple Tamsui Fort, "Did you see that? This is a smart person. If you send some people familiar with the surrounding area to him, I will pull some boats and horses for him, and they will act as our pioneers."

"Of course, I am not the kind of unreasonable person, so we will first be polite to the fans and then to the soldiers. You sent someone to meet the leaders of the various ministries and communities with my message, and said that I would like to increase the price of camphor incense to ten cents per choke, and I would also like to purchase some camphor wood, but the specifications, prices and quantity must be determined by us, and they must be responsible for transporting the wood to the port."

"Also, I'm interested in buying more land from them, and the price is easy to say."

Manager Liang sighed, "Those people are already greedy. We have looked for them many times and made many concessions, but they are completely unmoved. A tuft of camphor is already the previous price, and now it has risen again. They have to pay for each tuft of twenty tufts, and they have to pay for the goods they designated, and they have lowered the price of our goods a lot."

"To count it, the price of a tuft of camphor is now over thirty stakes."

"It's greedy enough." Qin Lang sneered a few times.

It is not like this to start the price by land.

"Does all the anime have the same attitude?"

"They secretly formed an alliance. We had secretly found several small opera teams to secretly refine camphor. After they discovered it, they immediately joined forces to destroy the people. They only escaped a few dozen people and hid in our village. Now those operas still ask us to hand over their hands."

"We paid for the shopping malls in advance, but now we haven't got a load of camphors and the money is gone."

Qin Lang snorted.

"Since we have paid, the camphors are already ours. If the monk dares to kill people and grab goods, it is to grab our goods. He is worried that there is no reason."

Qin Lang modified the content of the oral letter and added one, asking Zhufan to return the goods that had been paid by the Qin family first, and then talk about other things.

"Don't say that you don't make any mistakes!"

Qin Lang also strictly blocked the news of the fleet's arrival. He blocked the Tamsui River and several roads leading to Tamsui Village, preventing the fans from getting close.

On the other hand, Qin Lang gave Huansi Island the three thousand five hundred and fifteen hundred and strong men to sharpen their guns in the face of battle, continued to step up training, and provided them with a batch of war horses.

Although these Liuqiu people basically don’t know how to ride and shoot, there is no problem in riding horses. This is a secret decision to win every battle among the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. They have a large number of cavalry units, and even infantry have many mounts, which can achieve rapid maneuvering, division and encirclement, etc.

They were given many bows and arrows. Although these people could not even reach the level of the Guanzhong militia, they were much stronger in dealing with those militias.

The messengers sent by Qin Lang came back one after another, and the ones brought back were all disdainful replies from the kings. They thought it was Manager Liang again, so they didn't even step on it, and basically only had one reply.

"Each thirty stake in the crude camphor incense product is to be taken back, and the land in the Qin family will only be rented but not sold, and the rent will also increase."

Qin Lang was not surprised at all when he heard this news.

"It actually increased to thirty cents per load. Alas, why don't these people just take a hundred cents per load? So lack of courage?"

After saying that, he attracted Huansi Island Mason.

"From today, I will give you the name Qin Huan and give you the position of deputy captain of the Danshui Village Joint Defense Brigade. Now I will give you a task and destroy this Danshui Club first."

The Tamsui Club is a flat-di tribe closest to the Tamsui Port Village. It was also the aristocratic tribe that had previously sold land to the Qin family. Now it has been clamoring to take back the land.

Compared with the barbarians in Lingnan who like to use the name of streams and hills, the island's familials are mostly named after the clubs, which are equivalent to villages. Multiple clubs form a tribe, and even tribal alliances are upwards.

Tamsui Club lives on the periphery of the Taipei Basin, surrounded by rivers and mountains, mainly fishing and hunting, with a population of about 1,200. In recent years, it has become more prosperous because it relies on Qinjiagang Village and has trade benefits.

Huansi Island nodded excitedly, "Thank you to give me your name, Qin Huan will fulfill my mission. May I ask Duke Wei, will you slaughter the Danshui Society directly?"

Qin Lang frowned, "What did Tu Guang do? He broke the village and brought everyone back to me. I want to transport them back to Fuqing for farming."

"Don't kill indiscriminately. I know that you are a custom of making grass. You like to cut people's heads and keep them and show off, but this custom will be changed in the future, which is too barbaric."

"I will give you two thousand coins to capture one Qingshang alive. Kill one Qingshang will only give one thousand coins, and the reward will be reduced by half."

"Qin Huan, do your best, don't let my trust down! In the future, I will definitely take you back to the Cave of Lower and let you and your tribe rebuild your tribe."

"Qin Huan obeys the order!"

The seven divisions had a total of 3,500 soldiers, divided into seven battalions, and Qin Lang was transferred to Qin Huan, and two more leaders were appointed as deputy captains, and they were given names.

Then, three teams of cavalry were transferred from the Navy and Marine Corps, and they cooperated with each other, mainly to let them go to the formation.

Next, you just need to wait for the news.
