Su Yonglin was very happy.
This inexplicable coincidence actually allowed corn to enter China more than 300 years earlier!
And he is planning to introduce Japanese survivors on a large scale to reclaim the wasteland of Liaodong!
If this is not called God Blessing the Ming Dynasty, what is it called?
Good guy, now everything is complete.
After millions of Japanese survivors entered Liaodong, they could happily start growing corn. Promoting the cultivation of corn as an auxiliary staple food could, to a certain extent, improve the Ming Dynasty's predicament of insufficient grain yield.
After that, as long as we go to Central and South America to find potatoes and sweet potatoes, the prerequisites for Ming Dynasty to break through the food dilemma and usher in explosive population growth in the pre-industrial era will be complete.
In the mid-to-late twelfth century, if a population explosion could occur, raising the population to 300 or 400 million within a hundred years, the Ming Dynasty's global domination would really not be a dream. .
At this time, the total population of the world was less than 400 million. The Ming Dynasty's population of 180 million already accounted for almost half of the world's population.
If the population of the Ming Dynasty can be doubled within a century, the total population of the Ming Dynasty will account for the vast majority of the world.
Population is the future.
And if we predict based on the current progress of technological breakthroughs, Su Yonglin will not find it strange that the industrial revolution begins no matter when it occurs.
Occupying 60% to 70% of the world's population, coupled with the rapid advancement of industrial technology, and the ideological bonus of liberating all mankind.
Under the impact of such a trinity, Su Yonglin really couldn't think of the second possibility for the future of the world.
Ming's road to hegemony is inevitable, and Ming's glorious journey to the top is already expected. Unless a comet hits the earth and the Cretaceous catastrophe reappears, no one can stop Ming's "sun never sets" Republic" road.
Su Yonglin can pat his chest and guarantee that the completely different path he has started can lead the entire world to a completely different future.
In this future, there may be the possibility of further upgrades.
Su Yonglin took a few deep breaths, controlled his excitement, and put the corn cob back into the box. Then, he saw pumpkin-like crops among the pile of crops.
He picked up the melon, looked left and right, and found that the melon really looked like a pumpkin.
It seems that Chen Zhenxian brought back a lot of things this time.
"All these crops were sent to the Ministry of Agriculture, and I asked the Minister of Agriculture to summon the most famous agricultural experts in the country to study and promote the planting of these crops, and tell them that these are good things that can be grown in Liaodong. If I can’t handle this matter well, the Minister of Agriculture can let me go home and take care of my children.”
Since the Republic era, Su Yonglin had never given orders to his subordinates in such a domineering tone, so that when he suddenly issued the order, the followers around him were a little surprised.
Then they looked at the crops.
Could it be that these are precious treasures?
They didn't know it, but then Su Yonglin decided to award Chen Zhenxian with the order of the Chairman of the Executive Committee, and asked the Organization Department to study and discuss the awards and promotions for Chen Zhenxian and the personnel of the Beiyang Expedition Fleet.
They are all heroes. They are not afraid of thousands of miles of waves to bring important basic items to Ming Dynasty for world domination. Their achievements must be written in history books for future generations to admire. Even if future generations forget his name, they must not forget Chen Zhenxian. and the names of his men.
Su Yonglin's series of big actions made the affairs of the Beiyang Expedition Fleet more influential. Later, he publicly announced that the achievements achieved by the Beiyang Expedition Fleet were of a level that will be lasting in the contemporary era. The Beiyang Expedition Fleet must continue. Find a solid route.
It happened that in those few days, Xin Qiji's victory report arrived, and Su Yonglin learned that the Japanese reactionary regime had been completely eliminated, the reactionary forces had been comprehensively suppressed, and the Japanese offensive war had basically ended.
Just in time, double happiness comes.
After all the Japanese archipelago is captured, the next stage of the Northern Expedition Fleet can sail northeast from Ezo Island in the Japanese archipelago, saving a large distance of voyage and reducing a lot of investment and consumption.
How is this not a wonderful thing?
The way for Ming Dynasty to continue to climb up and develop into a world-wide country has become clear. A large number of obstacles have been overcome. No force can stop Ming Dynasty from reaching the top of the Blue Star.
Su Yonglin was pleased with this.
He was thinking that even if Ming's ideals ceased to exist one day and its glory faded, its influence and presence in global domination would not fade with it.
The Ming Dynasty will bring an irreversible influence to this planet, and the existence of the Ming Dynasty will become a fact that cannot be erased in the history of every land in the world.
If you can't become a god, then you might as well just degenerate and become a demon. It's just that you're stuck in the dilemma of not being good or not, isn't it?
Because of the arrival of large amounts of gold and copper, as well as the existence of vast commercial trade, Su Yonglin announced at the executive committee meeting a few days later that he requested the fourth northern voyage to be launched as soon as possible.
This voyage will no longer be of an adventurous nature, but of a commercial nature and a propagation of civilization. It is initially expected that the fleet will expand to 200 large-scale ships. Early preparations will require the construction of ports and transfer stations on the Japanese archipelago.
After arriving in Alaska, we must reach an agreement with the local Inuit people, start building a permanent transfer station there, and start sending permanent personnel to communicate and trade with them.
After arriving on the west coast of North America, we must also discuss with the local aborigines to build a permanent settlement. Using the west coast as a starting point, we must strive to traverse the entire New World. It will take more than ten years to complete the entire North American continent. Clarify the situation.
Then, through the opportunity of doing business and communicating with the North American aborigines, we can spread the Ming Dynasty's advanced productivity, production tools, and advanced culture to them, and strive to make them recognize the Ming Dynasty's advanced culture and actively join the Ming Dynasty's cultural circle.
The final goal is to build a permanent city resident in the local area, send immigrants to live in, mix with the indigenous people, and gradually achieve permanent residence in the local area, so that the North American continent can become the North American continent of the Ming Dynasty, one step ahead and create civilization.
Su Yonglin's series of plans for the local area have been written on the agenda, and were recognized by the executive committee members who were equally excited and were willing to support Su Yonglin's opinions.
At the same time, Su Yonglin also requested the planned disposal of post-war Japan.
First, conduct a census of the Japanese archipelago to obtain correct population data.
Second, it will take about ten years to gradually transfer 90% of the population of the islands to the Liaodong and Western Regions of the Ming Dynasty.
Third, comprehensively cleanse the ruling class on the Japanese islands and eliminate them all.
Fourth, gradually begin to educate the people on the archipelago to assimilate them, carry out Chinese character education and Chinese language education, and enable them to develop cultural identity.
Fifth, carry out revolutionary education simultaneously.
Sixth, carry out extensive publicity to publicize that Liaodong is good, the Western Region is good, and there are various preferential policies to prepare public opinion for large-scale immigration.
Seventh, conduct a thorough investigation of the places in the Japanese archipelago that are suitable for agricultural production and places rich in mineral resources. The remaining civilians will mainly carry out production and construction in these places.
Eighth, give priority to the construction of ports that need to be built for the merchant fleet of the Navigation Department.
Ninth, prepare to build an administrative team for the future Japanese province.
