From Chief to Ball

"It's not a question of how many things are there, but why should we give them things?"

"Because it's their land. Whether we admit it or not, at least they think it belongs to the king."

"We should play by our rules. We can make the rules."

Chen Jian nodded and said: "That's right, it's great to make rules. But, how to set the rules? Whoever has the biggest fist will take possession of it? Then what are we pursuing?"

Lan Qi laughed at the side, and after Chen Jian finished speaking, she added: "So our rules must be universally applicable, not only we can accept them, but also more people can accept them. Only in this way can we form our The rules set. This land...why is it the king's? This is the crux of the problem. As long as this key point is found, not only we will believe it, but the slaves here will believe it. I am afraid that the white man named Yang Sen and Their kindred will believe it too."

Some people suddenly realized, some people half-knowledge, Chen Jian smiled and motioned for Lan Qi to finish.

"Land, without labor, food will not be produced. Therefore, the ownership of the land should belong to all the people living here and have the right to use it, while the food belongs to the laborers. Since there are slaves here, there are people who have to pay a lot of tribute. Why don’t we build a village that includes the laborers who live on this land on the basis of equality for everyone?”

Chen Jian followed Lan Qi's words and said: "Yeah, it's completely different from whose fist is bigger. When we gain a foothold here and learn the language here... the next step is to overthrow the nobles, trample on the royal power, and divide the land. It's really busy." , complaining, denouncing, disseminating science and technology and writing, and building a home that belongs to the people who live here with equal rights and obligations. Valuable land in the Stone Age is different from valuable land in the age of horse plows and iron cultivators Yes, we are not in a place where the per capita land is two acres and we eat others if we want, and there is no conflict with the slave serf village here.”

"This is our rule. It is generally applicable to any place where princes, priests, priests, etc. occupy land but do not have to pay taxes. They have rights but no obligations. We just want to break the old world, so we Why play by the rules they set?"

"As for the big fists... Many of us were the ones with big fists when we were in our hometown. If it's because of this rule, what are we doing here?"

For short-sighted businessmen, looting and burning by force is the first choice.However, for a party with a large number of people, capital, knowledge, and management capabilities, this kind of short-sighted choice is unnecessary. Even if it is built as a dumping ground, people must buy and exchange things.As for the awakening of nationalism that will explode after more than a hundred years of indirect management with the upper echelon, it is better to replace it directly with ideology-taking history as a mirror, the slaves under the rule of Bayi masters and living Buddhas are very interested in turning themselves into masters, and here only It is even simpler for primitive religions without text and religious identity.

Chapter 6 Induced Confessions

As far as the reality is facing today, the people in the fleet are still quite optimistic.

The normal spontaneous colonization mortality rate is extremely high. Factors such as medical conditions, technology, food, management level, etc. have resulted in the initial colonization mortality rate of the normal world line being above 50.00%.

However, Chen Jian has been preparing for this day for five years. From money to people to technology to organization and even ideology and humanistic ideas, he has planted the initial seeds.

People who choose to immigrate here are either too poor to survive, or idealists inspired by this universally applicable ideology.For the former, as long as they can survive, they can endure hard work and survive the first three to five years of reclamation period, and everything will be fine.

The latitude here is a little lower, and the advantage is that there is enough heat, and it can be used for two or three crops a year. The construction of houses does not need to consider heating, and people will not freeze to death in winter.The disadvantage is that there are many mosquitoes here, and there may be strange diseases such as blight, fever, malaria and so on.

As long as we take precautions in advance, do a good job in urban planning and sewage discharge, as well as the habit of not drinking boiled water that has been developed for hundreds of years, and the mastery of some herbal medicines, the problem should not be serious.

After the internal opinions were unified, the construction of a new immigrant city was put on the agenda.

Immigrants who have completed the basic organizational structure on the island quickly elected representatives, and [-]% of them are members of the Mexican Party.Gathered with the committees organized by the Mexican Party and held an immigration meeting.

The various regulations and declarations that were originally planned to be read out were decided to be shelved after discussion until three years later when the employment contract expires, the local language has been basically learned, and the construction of the immigration area has roughly taken shape.

After discussion at the meeting, everyone came up with a name for this place, called "Great Deserted City".

There is still enough food for the time being, and things like sweet potatoes, potatoes, and pumpkins can also be harvested in a short period of time as food supplements, and the food on board is enough for these people to eat for a year.

As long as the granary is prepared and the cats brought in are bred quickly, the food problem in the Great Deserted City does not need to worry too much.

Considering the continuous flow of immigrants, a city must be planned.

The city can expand along the estuary towards the sea, taking into account not only the continuous immigration, but also the assimilated locals in the future, and the advantages of future port transportation.

There are many trees here, and it is completely possible to build a wooden house, but the planning of the block must be prepared in advance.

Chen Jian is familiar with the construction from scratch, and this time there is a large number of new technologies and skilled people as support, so there is no pressure.

In terms of the actual experience of farming, no one here is more familiar with Chen Jian, who has played with stones to cattle and horses for a whole life.The organizational skills practiced a lot in the previous life also played a role here.

A plan is drawn up.Including contiguous future family farms, cities, ports, and civil defense star castles, although they are still on paper, they will eventually be realized.

……

By the time the sound of clanging logs resounded through this peaceful land, it was already July.

Except for the occasional trade with that small city, the Great Wilderness City is strictly managed and basically does not have much contact with the outside world.

On the contrary, some nobles or priests' children would come to play occasionally, and the people in the city would try their best to be friendly. They would prepare some hard-to-eat food for them, and would give them some gadgets as gifts.

In two months, Chen Jian has mastered a lot of local vocabulary. Even if he is not proficient in conversation, he can do some simple communication.

In the party, Chen Jian's command of the local dialect is very low, and his thoughts are mainly on the rescued white man named Yang Sen.

Now it seems that everything is good, but in fact the gap is very clear to Chen Jian.

The group of people in the west spent 100 years and countless lives to pile up the sailing experience, which is far from what the Republic can compare.

Although some technologies are regarded as leading, the gap between sailors and captains is still far behind in the experience of piles of human lives.It was luck that he sailed here this time.Compared with the ability to catch hundreds of crew captains who can cross the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans by simply pulling and pulling in the west, it will take at least ten years to catch up.

But all progress is made by the dead.

In addition, Chen Jian also needed to get the "part of the truth" he wanted from Yang Sen, and spent a lot of time on clichés.

What he knows can't be said, and his group is the first group of people to go to sea to see the world. Many materials are likely to affect various policies of the Republic, if those officials are not so dull.

Taking advantage of the language barrier, Chen Jian made indirect remarks, constantly luring Yang Sen to tell others what he wanted to know.

He is very good at producing "partial truth" news.

Yang Sen didn't know that he had become a tool used by Chen Jian, and fell into Chen Jian's trap little by little during the communication with Chen Jian, the young fleet commander, and Lan Qi, whom he mistook for a nun.

Not long after landing, Chen Jian communicated with Yang Sen with hand gestures, indicating that as a boat ticket to rescue him and bring him here, there are a total of twenty silver coins plus all his guns and tools, which he needs to pay back with labor.

Soon, Yang Sen understood what the policy of "no labor, no food" was.

Indeed, this is not a rationing system, and you will be paid every day you work.The money is not the gold and silver that Yang Sen is familiar with, but banknotes, but without banknotes, there is no way to buy food here.

After understanding the exchange ratio between banknotes and silver coins, Yang Sen realized that he might not be able to leave for at least five years.He also understands that in this kind of place, leaving is also wishful thinking. There is no ship surrounded by the sea, and there is no place to run at all.

After working every day, Chen Jian and Lan Qi would come to chat with Yang Sen, but the problems were basically controlled by Chen Jian.

Starting from the very first nationality and national flag, Chen Jian constantly lured Yang Sen to tell the truth that he wanted others to know.

For example, he intentionally gave Yang Sen a piece of maple sugar, and then pointed to a tree and cut the opening, implying that the sugar was extracted from the tree.

And Yang Sen pointed to the corn planted outside, indicating that the sugar he knew was extracted from a plant similar to corn, and the color was like saltpeter.

From this, it is said that these plants are planted by many people on the southern islands, especially in the plantations of the Spaniards.

Originally, sugarcane, a crop that was not seen at all at this time, was lured by Chen Jian to let Yang Sen speak out.

Relying on this method of attracting topics, in two months, as Lan Qi gradually enriched some Low German vocabulary, a "truth" that Chen Jian wanted people to know was also gradually concocted.

The people in the fleet gradually knew that there was a continent to the west of their homeland, and there were many countries on the continent. These countries often fought wars, and the country where Yang Sen was located was at war with a country called Spain.

When those countries continued to the east, there was a rich land called India, which was rich in seasonings and spices like chili and peppercorns, as well as cotton cloth, jute, and rice.

Next to India, there is a country that pays taxes. The people in that country are just like these people, very rich and large, and they have exquisite porcelain and silk.

Only then did the people here know that the world is really so vast, and there are really many strange countries with strange similarities and differences.
