In fact, Zhao Jun wanted to exile all the criminals to Taiwan at that time in order to develop Taiwan.
Although my country has been involved in Taiwan since the Three Kingdoms period.
However, Taiwan was plagued by miasma and dense forests at the time, and a large number of people were needed to cut down trees and open up the plains before it could gradually become suitable for human survival.
Most of Taiwan's indigenous mountain tribes also migrated there slowly during the Qin and Han dynasties. However, their numbers were small and they lacked advanced production experience, so they maintained a tribal lifestyle of eating raw meat and drinking blood.
Therefore, it was not until the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, when the Mongols approached, that a large number of Han people moved to Taiwan, bringing with them advanced technology, production tools, forging technology, etc., which made Taiwan slightly more populated. Finally, it was easily taken over by the Mongols, who established the Xuanfu Office here and incorporated it into my country's territory.
So from this point of view, it would be basically easy for Zhao Jun to send a ship and a few officials to declare Taiwan an inalienable part of our country.
In fact, it's not just Taiwan, but Australia as well.
But your announcement is useless.
There has to be someone up there.
What's the point of your announcement regarding some primitive tribal natives?
Just like Lingnan was developed by generations of criminals exiled to Lingnan, this method is actually quite effective.
But in the end, Zhao Jun gave up the idea.
Mainly because the mortality rate is too high.
I am afraid that only one out of ten people will survive after being exiled, and a lot of manpower and resources will be wasted, but the result will not be very good.
It would be better to wait until productivity is improved, land tax is equalized, and the population grows explosively before sending a large number of people to open up the country. This is much better than risking human lives now.
This year, the Song Dynasty was not blessed with good weather, but thanks to the new policies, people's lives became much better.
This year, business restrictions were relaxed and the tax model was changed, allowing private business to prosper and the number of people engaged in business activities to increase day by day.
During this year, the Song Dynasty enjoyed stability in domestic and foreign affairs, and trade with merchants from Western Xia, Liao, Japan, Goryeo, Tubo, Dali, and Central Asian countries was frequent, resulting in a sharp increase in export volume.
During this year, the Song Dynasty built canals across the country, engaged in large-scale construction, established schools, promoted science education, and laid the foundation for mathematics, physics, and chemistry from elementary school to junior high school.
This year, the newly appointed Jinshi Su Song was very interested in the steam engine being researched by the institute, and took the initiative to request to be transferred to the institute to join in the scientific research.
In this year, the imperial court cast more than 200 bronze cannons and began to invest in the research and development of firearms such as iron cannons and flintlock rifles.
In this year, Zhao Jun drew a circle in Handan City, Hebei Province, and required the construction of a canal between Wu'an and Mingshui, and then the construction of a steel plant here, officially starting the Great Steelmaking Experiment.
In this year, since Jiaozi shops had been established in major commercial cities across the country, a large number of merchants deposited copper coins in Jiaozi shops to facilitate trade. The imperial court used silver imported from Japan as an anchor, which gradually replaced copper coins, gradually alleviating the shortage of money in the market.
Although the problem has not been completely solved, it has improved a lot and has promoted business development.
In this increasingly noisy atmosphere.
The third year of the Qingli period has arrived.
