Chapter 849 The Six County Governors of Qiongzhou Island
Once the appointment of the personnel of the Governor's Office, the Protectorate Office, and the two government offices is clarified, other things will be easier to handle. Once the entire Qiongzhou Island is stabilized, all that is needed next is a large amount of starting capital and materials.
The population of Qiongzhou Island is ready, the arable land is ready, and the farm tools were also replaced this summer. What is needed now is the seeds of various crops and a complete local management system, so that the people of the entire Qiongzhou Island can be incorporated into the system of the Han tribe.
Write down all the things that need to be explained in the letter, and then make a set of official seals, official uniforms and other tokens of the Governor's Office and the Protectorate Office, and finally pack them all into a package and give them to the Azuka Eagle for delivery.
The Azuka Eagle can easily carry a deer in the sky for long distances, so it is no problem to just carry a package.
After dealing with the reply, Luo Chong called his personal guard captain again, and asked him to draft a victory report, circulate it in various counties of the Han tribe, and let all the people of the Han tribe celebrate this victory together.
Although it is not a festival, as long as the battle is won and there are basically no casualties, it is great news.
First of all, the people in the family who are soldiers are still alive, and secondly, the victory of the war means that a large number of soldiers will make meritorious deeds, so if there are family members serving in the army, it means that they may be promoted to a higher title again. Isn't this good news? Of course it is worth celebrating warmly.
After arranging the publicity of the victory report, Luo Chong began to plan other things.
The currency prepared for large-scale issuance in Qiongzhou Island and Tang Tribe has already been shipped and set off. It has been almost a month since it left. It is expected that the currency will arrive in Takuhai County within half a month at the latest. Once it arrives in Takuhai County, it will be much easier to spread it to the surrounding areas.
It must be said that Tuohai County is the center of the south, because this place is the closest to Qiongzhou Island, the eight counties of Tang tribe, or the three counties of Honghu in the grassland, and it is indeed suitable for the development of Chengdu City.
Luo Chong is also arranging the remaining materials quickly. Grain seeds, vegetable seeds, silkworm seeds, cotton seeds, and even breeding rabbits and pigs for breeding also need to be mobilized to Qiongzhou Island. It is still winter in the Han tribe. If the materials are loaded now, they will definitely be delivered to Qiongzhou Island before the spring plowing next year, and will definitely not delay local production.
However, there is another thing that needs to be dealt with, that is, how to arrange the governors of the six counties of Qiongzhou?
The governor has already been appointed. Luo Chong is going to let Yang Feng, a military officer of the Huben Guard, take over the post of governor of Qiongzhou in the Protectorate. Yang Feng, as one of the three chief officers in the highest command, also has great merits in this battle. At the same time, he has been responsible for contacting the Jinwu Guard lurking in the Xin tribe, so he knows more about the situation of Qiongzhou Island than others. Luo Chong is very relieved to let him be the governor of Qiongzhou.
The Huben Guards were promoted this time. As the absolute main force, one of the three chief officers was promoted to governor, and one was promoted to governor of Qiongzhou. The remaining one naturally could not be given nothing, otherwise it would be unreasonable.
However, Xue Tu must not leave the Huben Guards, because if the three chief officers of an army were all transferred away at once, the army would be equivalent to collapse. If a general was reassigned, it would cause a joke that the soldiers did not know the generals, and the generals did not know the soldiers. So Luo Chong finally decided to let Xue Tu bring the Huben Guards back.
The Huben Guards did not have a garrison mission, so there was no need to stay there. Luo Chong planned to transfer Xue Tu directly back to the hometown of the Han tribe and let him be a governor here in the hometown of the Han tribe.
Prepare for promotion to the Ministry of War after the founding of the country in the future.
Then there were the governors of the six counties of Qiongzhou. The most suitable one among them was Tiezhen. Tiezhen had been lurking in the Xin tribe for nearly three years. Later, he served as the elder of the Xin tribe for half a year. He was very familiar with the actual situation of Qiongzhou Island.
At the same time, he survived the battle with the militia of the Xin tribe and became the benefactor of the militia, that is, the people.
Now the people who have returned to the fields are grateful to him and believe in him, which makes Tiezhen have prestige and personal credit among the people. At the same time, he has great military merits, so it is no problem for him to be a county governor directly.
The second is Shouya, who was originally mixed in Zhudao. He went there as an envoy of the Han tribe. Now the Xin tribe is gone, and Zhudao has become the Qiongzhou Island of the Han tribe. His mission as an envoy has been completed.
As for letting Shouya stay there as a county governor, Luo Chong never thought about it. Shouya hasn't been home for three years. It's time for him to go home and reunite with his family. Regarding Shouya's promotion, Luo Chong said that he had his own arrangements. Anyway, there are things that need him to do in the Han tribe, and it should be easy to find a position.
As a result, the number of candidates for the county governor was a little insufficient. Luo Chong began to search for the right candidate in his mind. Elder Zhu of the Xin tribe was a good guy. Although he was a little older, he was a pro-Han person and was worth winning over. If he was willing to cooperate, Luo Chong would not mind letting him be the county governor.
It didn't matter if he didn't know how to manage. He could learn slowly. Anyway, there were a lot of assistants under the county governor who could take charge of official duties. Even if Elder Zhu was just a mascot, it would be fine. As long as he sat in the position of county governor, it would be a guarantee to stabilize the hearts of the local people.
Luo Chong silently ticked this person in his heart, indicating that he could choose.
There was another person who could also be used, and that was Niu Wei, who was currently the county magistrate of Xuefu County in Ruyang County.
Niuwei is more familiar with the situation. The two tribes of Han and Xin can reach this point today, in fact, all thanks to him. This guy used to be the business elder of the Xin tribe. He is proficient in the languages of the three places of Han, Xin and Mu. He has taken the initiative to lead people to the Han tribe. He also studied in the Han tribe and is familiar with the situation of the Han tribe. Now he has served as the county magistrate of the Han tribe for more than half a year. He is also familiar with the government affairs of the Han tribe.
In addition, he is originally from the Xin tribe and has a better understanding of the situation of Qiongzhou Island. It is no problem for him to be a county governor, so this guy was also pulled into the candidate list by Luo Chong.
Tiezhen, Niuwei, and Zhu elders have already made up three places. There are also the captured two elders, Huangjin Baijin. These two guys are completely useless. After all, they are the hardcore faction led by Xin. Just kill them.
The three elders of Mi Dou Sheng were different. These three guys were timid and willing to surrender voluntarily. At the same time, they used to be in charge of the agriculture and animal husbandry of the entire Qiongzhou Island. They should be more suitable for the Han tribal system that mainly develops agriculture.
However, the age of these three people is a little bit old, and it is a bit late for them to study government affairs. At
the same time, they are a little resistant to the Han tribe. After all, these three guys have helped to come up with ideas to deal with the Han tribe before, so even if they are not given real power, it is a bit inappropriate to let them be mascots. In such a situation, Luo Chong has no choice. The county governor must not let them do it. It is better to send these three people to the farming and animal husbandry department of the governor's mansion to work as consultants. The Han tribe can also ask them about the historical climate change of Qiongzhou and other farming and animal husbandry techniques. The Han tribe really doesn't need them. The farming and animal husbandry techniques of the Han tribe are much better than theirs.
Then there are still three candidates missing. Luo Chong thought again and again and decided to count Jiang Xuan from the Youjiang family. The Youjiang family has joined the Han tribe for more than two years. Its original leader Jiang Xuan is also very loyal to the Han tribe. This guy likes the culture and lifestyle of the Han tribe. Although he is past the age of school, he is also very fast in self-study. After all, he is not old, only in his early twenties, which is a good time to learn. Now reading and writing Chinese characters is no problem.
Moreover, he had been the leader of a farming tribe. After joining the Han tribe, he was familiar with the various daily management systems of the Han tribe. Therefore, with the help of others, it was no problem for him to be a county governor.
So Luo Chong also put this person on the list of county governors.
Thinking about the large tribes that joined the Han tribe in recent years, Luo Chong remembered another person. This person was Zhan Ying's mother's family, the former Nian tribe, the tribe that brought glutinous rice to the Han tribe.
Zhan Mao, the original leader of the Nian tribe, also integrated quickly after joining the Han tribe in the past three years. After all, with the relationship with Zhan Ying, they couldn't help but make progress, because Zhan Ying would urge them from time to time.
It was just that because the Nian tribe used Zhan Ying as a living sacrifice and threw Zhan Ying into the river to offer to the river god, Luo Chong was unhappy, so he never gave the Nian tribe any opportunity to use him. Until now, the Zhan clan has been mediocre. If Zhan Ying hadn't become the leader's wife, it is estimated that their clan would have been forgotten by everyone.
Not only have they worked hard in the past few years, but Luo Chong is really short of people now, so he can give them a chance. As for whether they can seize this opportunity, it depends on whether they understand things and have the ambition.
For the last quota, Luo Chong looked through the roster of the existing county and county officials of the Han tribe and decided to assign the position of the county governor to Jing Yun.
This person is the brother of Jing Yan, the current county governor of Dongxin County. After Jing Yan became the county governor, he began to deliberately select elites from the tribe for training. Jing Yun was brought up by him and had been working as a clerk beside Jing Yan before.
At the beginning of the year, Luo Chong assigned the task to Jing Yan to expand two new counties in Dongxin County, so Dongxin County had Pingyao County and Dachang County. Jing Yan recommended Jing Yun to be the county magistrate of Dachang County.
Now a year has passed, because Jing Yun had been a clerk beside his brother before and had certain administrative experience, this county magistrate did a good job and was relatively reliable, so he was a candidate for promotion.
In this way, the preliminary candidates for the six counties of Qiongzhou were gathered.
They were Niu Wei, Tiezhen, Zhu Changlao, Zhan Mao, Jiang Xuan, and Jing Yun. These six people had their own characteristics. Overall, they all had the qualifications to be county governors. Now that the political situation in Qiongzhou was initially determined, there were experienced governors commanding and supervising above, and diligent clerks assisting below. Although several of these six people had no experience in governing, they were still useful and there was no problem in taking office. As for the future, it depended on whether they would learn well.
Luo Chong had given them the opportunity, and whether they could seize it and master it was their own business.
After making up his mind, Luo Chong summoned Qu Bing, who was currently serving as his personal guard, and asked him to go on this trip. He ordered Niu Wei, Zhan Mao, Jiang Xuan, and Jing Yun to pack up and prepare to take office, and they could bring their families with them. After all, they could not live apart for a long time in such a far place.
The remaining Elder Zhu and Tiezhen were already on Qiongzhou Island, so there was no need for them to come back. However, Luo Chong sent his family over to take care of Tiezhen.
After receiving the order, they immediately came to Luo Chong to report their work, and then took the new appointment letter and the official seal, and then went home to pack their luggage and families, and then went to Liuyang County to gather, ready to take the ship carrying supplies to Qiongzhou Island.
While Luo Chong was busy arranging the appointment and removal of officials on Qiongzhou Island, the two research institutes on the Han tribe also broke out good news at the same time, which made Luo Chong, who had just received the good news, excited again.
Ao Fei, the leader of the optical team of the comprehensive research institute on Huxin Island, sent good news. This guy has successfully manufactured the first optical microscope according to Luo Chong's instructions. The magnification can reach 1500 times, which is equivalent to the optical microscope used in junior high school. After all, it was designed in that way at the beginning.
Ao Fei also conducted a special experiment. This guy took a group of photos of mold under a microscope according to the suggestion Luo Chong had mentioned. Of course, they were all black and white photos, but even so, it was a great progress in physics. At least the Han tribe was indeed ahead in the optical research of physics.
On the other side, the Power Research Institute of Xingang County also received good news. Although they had not yet built a steam locomotive, they had made the necessary tools, which were the air compressors and various pneumatic tools that Luo Chong suggested they make at the time.
With this set of equipment, even without an electric motor, the Han tribe can still use pneumatic hammers, pneumatic drills, pneumatic screwdrivers, pneumatic saws, as well as pneumatic riveting machines and pneumatic hot riveting hammers.
The emergence of pneumatic tools represents the era of automation of the tools of the Han tribe, which is a great progress.
Although the scope of use and activity of this set of equipment is still very small, it is still very suitable for use in fixed workstations on factory assembly lines.
If you have to use it outdoors, you can only pull a big cart with an air compressor, a steam engine and fuel. After all, the air compressors in the Han tribe are all driven by steam engines, so if you have to move to another place, you have to drag a steam engine wherever you go.
Faced with this situation, Luo Chong has no choice. Besides, now is not the time to pursue miniaturization and convenience. First solve the problem of whether there is a problem, and then talk about excellence. This is the real routine of R&D.
