The original government affairs still exist and will not be reduced. Then the Ming Dynasty World Revolution Plan also started from this, and there are more things to be done in domestic and foreign affairs.
The manpower of the originally large Ming Dynasty official group suddenly became tense, so some office staff who had been stationed in Zhongdu for a long time were sent out on a large scale for business trips.
They either actively or forcedly responded to Su Yonglin's call to "streamline the organization and enhance service capabilities" and went out on business in large numbers, without exception.
As a cadre with a relatively high leadership level, Wang Kun was also assigned a temporary assignment. He was assigned to reach an agreement as the envoy of the envoy, and as the first director of Xingzhou Island, it was said that he was to hone his ability to do things. To prepare for promotion inspection.
However, as far as Wang Kun knew, the Organization Department said this to everyone. Although there was suspicion of deception, things might still be like this.
After the Ming Dynasty changed from an empire to a democratic republic, and with the launch of the World Revolution Plan, the Executive Committee led by Su Yonglin launched some projects that were very troublesome for officials on the grounds of "improving the ability of civil servants to do their jobs."
The most direct one is to send those who have been sitting in offices in Zhongdu for a long time to go on business trips outside Zhongdu.
The higher the position and the longer you sit in the office, the longer the business trip distance and time.
Unfortunately for Wang Kun, he has a very high position and spends a lot of time in the office, so he can only accept appointments for business trips.
The remaining people who can still sit in offices no longer have the leisure time of the past.
Because there were a lot of business trips among the staff, there were not many people left, but they had much more to do than before, so everyone was forced to start working overtime every day.
Wang Kun was one of the people who set out relatively late. When he was about to leave, there were only four people left in the office of the Central Prime Minister of the Renaissance Society where he originally worked, and the other eleven people were all on business trips.
These four people are faced with a lot of files that need to be uploaded and distributed every day. They are so busy that they can do many things in a shared manner without everyone feeling tired. But now it is no longer possible. Everyone is almost at full capacity.
I start doing errands as soon as I arrive in the morning. I lower my head and then raise my head, and it’s noon. I take a half-hour lunch break. Then I lower my head and raise my head again, and it’s already evening.
I had a nervous dinner and had to work overtime. When the sky was filled with stars, I could return home with the exhaustion of the day, take a shower, rest, and have a good sleep, and then do it again the next day, and the cycle started again.
Some officials whose homes are relatively close to the government offices are fine, so it is convenient to go home. Some officials whose homes are relatively far away from the government offices simply pack up and live in the government offices in order to save commuting time and have more time to rest.
They cleaned a utility room and set up a few simple single beds. They ate in the government canteen every day and washed and slept in the government office. It was as if they regarded the government office as a second home and would only go home during holidays. .
Compared with them, Wang Kun feels that he is still lucky. Although things are more difficult to do and he is far away from home, he is not that busy or tired after all, and the pressure is not great.
Although there are not so many high-quality living and entertainment facilities on Xingzhou Island, you can at least feel the original style, which is really wonderful.
For example, he can watch the monkeys baring their teeth on Xingzhou Island, which is still in the barbaric era, and confront the monkeys. He is always on guard against the monkeys robbing him of his food, and from time to time he has to lead his team in fierce battles with the monkeys.
You can also watch big fish eating small fish, and always be on guard against the big fish being hunted hitting his small raft, so that it becomes the big fish's new prey.
Another example is that he can survive under the threat of "white bombs" released by seabirds flying all over the sky, running around to prevent himself from being affected by too many white bombs, so that bathing is a long-standing problem. bother yourself.
Of course, it is also interesting to communicate with the local indigenous people.
Because it is slightly distant from the ruling core of Srivijaya, and has not been taken seriously for a long time, development lags behind. Even the Han immigrants who have been working in Sriwijaya for more than ten years cannot understand the language of the local aborigines on Sin Chew Island.
After a series of gestures and calls, both parties could barely figure out what their respective intentions were, and then came the more difficult problem.
"Shura Martial God"
How can we make them understand that it is not a bad thing for the Ming Dynasty to conscript them as workers, but it may also be very meaningful to them?
These aboriginal people were accustomed to the life of woodworking, gathering, fishing and hunting for generations. They seemed to like this kind of life where hunger and filling depended on luck. However, they seemed unwilling to accept the job introduced to them by the Ming Dynasty.
They preconceptionally believed that the Ming people were trying to trick them into doing hard labor, and they did not have many professional skills. If they were engaged in construction work, they could only do labor work. They seemed to have a strong resistance to such work. heart of.
While Wang Kun applied for a large number of construction workers and material support from the country, he also tried to get it from the local area to reduce construction costs. So he tried his best to persuade these people. In the end, he had no choice but to come up with a trump card.
The temptation of delicious food, dimensionality reduction attack!
Wang Kun had an in-depth understanding of these aborigines and found that their cooking methods were very primitive, simple barbecue cooking, and even raw food, and the processing and seasoning of fish and other poultry meat were quite inferior.
A good piece of fish, when they cook it, the fishy smell goes straight to your forehead, and other meat also smells fishy.
It is said that the Kingdom of Srivijaya is rich in spices, but you also need to be able to use them.
They won't use it at all.
In other words, their material level is not enough for them to develop excellent cooking skills.
So Wang Kun found an opportunity to solve the problem and asked the team chef to cook a meal for them to eat.
Facts have proved that the yearning for delicious food is a common pursuit of every human being.
After eating it once, the indigenous people on the island couldn't stand it any longer. Wang Kun told them that as long as they come to work on our construction site, they will not only get paid, but they can also eat for free.
Yes, this level of food is provided. As long as you come to work and abide by the rules and regulations, it’s free, three meals a day!
The saliva instantly drowned out their past persistence.
The aboriginal people cheered and then began internal negotiations. Finally, seven or eight hundred people were dispatched to try the work and receive training from Ming Dynasty technical officials to prepare for work.
Wang Kun conquered the aborigines with delicious food. Su Yonglin was very surprised when he learned that Wang Kun successfully won Singapore. He immediately decided to commend Wang Kun and the entire mission, and then immediately began to organize and build a team. .
The Ministry of Finance immediately held a construction meeting to discuss how many resources to use to build this Sin Chew Island.
The Ministry of Military Affairs also held a meeting to discuss preparations for stationing troops here and building a military base.
Afterwards, the Ministry of Civil Affairs also held some meetings, hoping to recruit some people to reclaim wasteland and grow food to make preparations for long-term management of the place.
Because this is the first port city that the Ming Dynasty captured, everyone attaches great importance to it and maintains an eager wait-and-see attitude as to what this matter will bring to the Ming Dynasty in the end.
A few months later, at the end of 2015, Su Yonglin held a plenary meeting on court affairs to summarize and analyze the current situation.
The current situation is that on the one hand, Ming Dynasty is rectifying its internal affairs and building a democratic and republican system inwards; on the other hand, it is developing revolutionary work from the inside out.
At the end of this year, Ming's overseas layout had begun to bear fruit.
