Originally, Huang Ji'an didn't plan to come with him, so Yu Ren specially called him. Although he didn't have any decent position yet, Yu Ren knew that he was one of the few sensible people in the Xu family.

After everyone sat down, Yu Ren said slowly, "Now, we have finally made a foothold here. But this is just the beginning.

If anyone thinks: in this way, we can rest assured. Then I want to tell him that this is a big mistake. On the contrary, at this time, we are more dangerous than ever.

At the beginning, although we were not strong in Nansha, we were not very conspicuous. The Li merchant group led by Ying'er was blocked by us, but no one below coveted us.

Later, although Li fell, we accepted the court's reunion. Because of this connection, the court at least would not easily attack us. But now it is different.

Now we have completely broken up with the court, and they may send troops to encircle us at any time. And we occupy such a large and good land in Dongfan Island. There must be many people who covet this place. Not to mention the distance, let’s talk about our neighbors, Portuguese and Spanish in Luzon! In addition, there are more powerful Dutch people.

Now, because this is a deserted island, they have no interest. But when we build this place, commerce and agriculture will develop greatly, they will definitely be jealous. Besides, there is a strong enemy in the north of the Ming Dynasty - the Jurchens.

The Jurchens' iron cavalry was said to be invincible in the world. The ancients once said that the Jurchens were less than ten thousand, and the world was invincible in the world. Now, their iron cavalry is no less than sixty thousand. Such strength is no longer just a threat to the Ming Dynasty. It has become the strongest driving force for the possibility of overthrowing the Ming Dynasty, the building that has stood for more than two hundred years.

As far away in southern Xinjiang, we don’t seem to be affected at the moment. Even if the Jurchens captured all the cities of the Ming Dynasty, they might not be able to capture our island. However, what I want everyone to think about is that if the Jurchens really captured the southeastern half of the Ming Dynasty, then we would have no business to do.

You should know that the Jurchens are cruel and they are slaughtering. They regard their fellow races as their brothers and sisters, but foreign races as their cattle and sheep. They will savage other people's property and drive prisoners as cattle and sheep.

The result is that the world will be completely destroyed, and people will hide in the mountains to survive. No one will ever make porcelain, spin yarn, weave cloth, and pick medicinal materials to make money. By then, even if we will not be occupied by the Jurchens, we will not find any business to do.

For us, the southeastern half of the Ming Dynasty is our business field. Without it, there will be no business. So, no matter what, we cannot let this result happen."

No one spoke, just listened quietly.

After a while, Xu Keming asked, "Brother-in-law, are the Jurchens really that scary?"

Yu Ren nodded, "The real Jurchens are even more terrifying than this. They are a copy of the Mongols back then. When the Mongols captured the Central Plains, they were piled with bones. Every time they captured a city, they often wanted to kill all the living people in the city and steal all their property.

A prosperous city will become a ghost town after their army."

When Xu Keming heard this, he couldn't help but slap him. His face was pale and he stopped talking.

Seeing that everyone seemed to be frightened by the Jurchens he described, Yu Ren changed the subject.

"Okay, although the Jurchens are terrible, they still have the Ming Dynasty court there to stop them. Although the Ming Dynasty court is becoming more and more corrupt, it is not something that the Jurchens can be pushed down in three or five years. For the time being, we don't need to worry about these Jurchens.

At present, our most important job is to develop ourselves. And to develop, the most important thing is people. At present, our population is too small.

Regarding increasing the population, I have a few ideas here and I would like to discuss it with you.

The first is to specify the age of marriage. The young woman here is eighteen and the man here must get married at twenty years old, otherwise he will be fined ten taels of silver.

The second is to reward childbirth. Each household will receive three taels of silver for each child.

Third, we provide free treatment for every child, regardless of male or female, from birth to before the age of eighteen, when we are sick; we provide free reading between the ages of eighteen.

Of course, the above three points are not a day or two, but can achieve results in a year or two. Therefore, some more rapid and effective means are needed. That is, recruit exiled victims from Shandong to farm. This year, Shandong has suffered a great disaster, and refugees are everywhere. As long as we have enough food, we can say that as many people as we need, we can have."

Speaking of this, Yu Ren stopped and looked at everyone. "This is just a little personal opinion. Do you have any better suggestions or see what I need to modify, just mention it."

Everyone, look at me, look at you. They have always considered very little in this regard. Most of them have been used to listening to Yu Ren's questions about the future and development of the Xu family. At this time, Yu Ren suddenly asked about their opinions, and everyone really didn't know how to answer them.

Yu Ren sighed softly, "The so-called three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. No matter how smart I am, I will inevitably have some inadequate considerations. You cannot always rely on me to make decisions. Since I will divide this power today, I will let you all make decisions.

Today is just the beginning. I don’t blame everyone for not preparing, but I hope that everyone will make your brains better in the future.”

After saying that, Yu Ren stood up and wanted to get up and go out. Huang Ji'an then stood up and said, "Can I give me some suggestions for revision?"

Yu Ren was very happy to see Huang Ji'an asking for advice. "Yes! You said, I remember." After that, Yu Ren took out a homemade simple pen and a small notebook from his arms. This has always been something he carried with him.

"I think the age limit for marriage should be shortened, and it is better to control the age of women as much as possible. The man is eighteen. Because most of the families here have already got married on the fifteenth day of the 15th day of the women, while most of the men have got married on the fifteenth day of the 18th day of the 18th day of the 18th day of the 18th day of the 18th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th day of the 20th

After Huang Ji'an finished speaking, he sat down.

Yu Ren nodded repeatedly, "Yes, you said it very well. Just change it like this." Yu Ren said while remembering it in the notebook.

"I think, should we hire a few doctors from the local local people and learn from our doctors? The environment here is quite different from that of the Central Plains. Some diseases are not very effective when using the prescriptions of our own doctors. On the contrary, the local local people's methods are more effective." Qu Jing stood up and said.

"Okay, this idea is very good!

However, in the future, this matter will be the affairs of your Ministry of Internal Affairs. For such a small matter, you, the Vice Premier, can make your own decisions and arrange someone to organize it. If there is a bigger matter, you can discuss it with Xu Qian. There is no need to tell me. I don’t care." After that, Yu Ren stood up again.

"What everyone discussed today is very effective. However, it is getting late today, and you are not very accustomed to this independent way of thinking. I think, let's just stop here today! Let's go back first, and we will have a meeting here tomorrow morning.

I hope everyone will not disappoint me anymore!”

In the following three days, Yu Ren discussed the future planning and development issues of the Xu family with Xu Keming, Xu Qian, Liu Long, Qu Jing and Huang Ji'an all day long. At Yu Ren's suggestion, they divided Taiwan Island into four major regions, also called provinces, each province was divided into four prefectures, and the prefectures were divided into states. They basically followed the administrative plan of the Ming Dynasty.

Because there are not so many people at the moment, they temporarily focus on the radius of fifty miles around Tamsui. While other provinces and governments are preparing to draw twenty capable people in two months to go there to open up the territory. When there are people, they will be allocated.

The next day, they discussed the establishment, charges, expenses and other issues of clinics and schools. Because of their previous experience in Juhe Village, Songjiang, they basically followed the Juhe Village method. Later, Yu Ren proposed to establish a science and technology institute.

Others had no idea about this thing. However, they were gradually getting used to it. It would be better for Yu Ren to decide on things without concepts. Only Liu Long murmured softly, "Spend 30,000 taels of silver to make such a useful thing! Humph!"
Chapter completed!
