Chapter 136 Entrusting the Islands
Japan in this era is indeed an island country, but it is not a maritime country.

This is not because Chu Tianxiu has any prejudice in his heart, but a fact.

Today's Dongying culture has not yet been nourished and replenished by the culture of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which has made the country's civilization extremely bad, and it is still in the wild period. Naturally, the shipbuilding industry on this island is extremely backward. Put out some small sampans and small fishing boats, and go out to sea in the open sea, just for fishing.

Therefore, in this era, Dongying can barely develop its own homeland, and it can be regarded as entering a semi-slave and semi-feudal society. However, the poor shipbuilding industry makes Dongying, in addition to mastering Iki Island and Tsushima Island, a few can be used as a springboard to Goguryeo. In addition to the control rights of the special islands of Japan, it has not been able to effectively control the many small islands outside the mainland of Japan, nor is it able to effectively develop these islands.

This makes almost all the islands off the coast of Japan in a wild state. Some islands may be scattered with some fishermen's villages and indigenous savages, and some are controlled by water bandits and pirates because of the dangerous terrain, but more of them are completely A completely uninhabited island.

From the point of view of land thinking, it seems that apart from Tsushima Island and Iki Island, which are bordering Goguryeo, the current Dongying Royal Court does not seem to regard these islands in the outer sea as its own territory.

This really made Chu Tianxiu particularly satisfied.

Originally in the hands of Li Jing, Fukushima among the five islands was only used as a place to station military camps, but since Chu Tianxiu set foot here, he quickly took out many people who had built camps and camps from Yizhou and Hudouzhou. Engineers with experience in housing, built a lot of construction on the five big islands, and set up five camps as bases.

This is not only the case on the Goto Islands, but even the territories in the East Sea, whether it is the Tanegashima, Yakushima, Amami Islands in the south of the East Sea, or the Zeng Island Islands to the west, all follow the same pattern.

It has to be said that building houses near Dongying is very advantageous.

The temperature here is suitable and the environment is special. It only needs to build a large number of wooden houses for people to live in, instead of building some brick houses with painstaking efforts. What's more important is that Dongying is full of volcanic islands and high-quality buildings everywhere. Volcanic ash, so as long as a sufficient amount of limestone can be transported from Yizhou, the method of mixing quicklime with volcanic ash can be used to produce very high-quality cement.

However, Chu Tianxiu didn't build houses on those large and small islands to allow himself to occupy these islands and expand the territory of the Central Plains on paper.

Fortunately, he doesn't have the energy to rule those tasteless and wasteful islands, but there are a lot of people around him who are greedy for these unowned lands hanging overseas.

……

"Yuzhen, although this big island of Amami is a little smaller, its geographical location is extremely superior. It happens to be stuck between Ryukyu and Dongying, and it has a natural geographical advantage. At a critical node, it is almost the most favorable island."

Yun Yuzhen, the leader of Chu Tianxiu, walked around the Amami Islands adjacent to Ryukyu and let her understand the environment of this island. She said sincerely that it was very similar to those real estate salesmen who sold houses and land in later generations. member?

"Tianxiu, don't worry. I, Yunyu, am really not a fool. I naturally know the advantages of this island. After tomorrow, I will order someone to open a sub-helm here, and I will let Bu Tianzhi, the deputy leader of the Jukun Gang, take charge of this place personally. , carry forward the foundation here.”

After talking about the land issue, Yun Yuzhen naturally couldn't be as magnanimous as usual, but was extremely cautious.

If there is no accident, this land will be completely "entrusted" to her, and it may become the eternal foundation of the Giant Kun Gang in the future, so she has to be more cautious.

Fortunately, Chu Tianxiu entrusted Yun Yuzhen with this piece of land, and it was indeed without selfishness. It was definitely the result of careful selection, and it could almost be regarded as the most superior land among the overseas islands of Japan. Therefore, even if Yun Yuzhen thought twice, I have never found a site that is half a point more superior than this place.

"Since that's the case, let's settle things like this. Tomorrow, I will transfer 5000 young and strong Goguryeo men and women captured last time to this place to help you."

After Chu Tianxiu got rid of a trouble, he couldn't help feeling better, and laughed loudly.

"If that's the case, that's better. But if you still have the energy, Tianxiu, you'd better provide me with another batch of food and supplies, so as to save me some trouble."

After hearing the words, Yun Yuzhen couldn't help but brighten up even more, and said happily.

"It's natural! After I move those Goguryeo youths here, I will definitely have their expenses for the next three months, but the things after that must be handled by you yourself." Chu Tianxiu was very excited. Said cheerfully.

Chu Tianxiu’s distribution this time, of course, not only gave Amami Island to Yun Yuzhen, but also distributed Xiazheng Island off the coast of Dongying to Fan Naitang of the Nanyang Gang, Yakushima to the Shuilong Gang Ze Tianwen, and Tanegashima to each other. Ren Meimei was given to Peng Liang Hui, and Tsushima Island was assigned to Rong Jiaojiao of Luoyang Gang.

Except for Song Shuang of the Song Clan and Shen Luoyan of Wagangzhai, the other five elders of the Qiangmen League not only allocated an island as their territory, but also allocated [-] to [-] Goguryeo people as their own islands. residents.

This is undoubtedly a big deal!

Even these five elders are clear that when they accept these overseas lands, they will inevitably assume an obligation and pay a price.

For example, they must fully implement the existence of Duke Yang's treasury in the future, otherwise how could they have an excuse to greet scattered people from the Jianghu and loot people and materials from Goguryeo?
But this kind of land that actually fell into his own hands, but could be controlled by his own gang, was something that no one could refuse.

In particular, what Chu Tianxiu did was almost equivalent to choosing the address in one place, digging the foundation, and improving the house, just waiting for them to move in with peace of mind. Who among them can give up such a big bargain?

More importantly, even if there will be Jianghu gangs in the future who will be dissatisfied because they have not found the treasure house of Duke Yang, then they may only need to entrust the small islands attached to these five big islands like today. Giving some small gangs who will be subordinate to them in the future will naturally satisfy their appetite.

The only exception is probably Rong Jiaojiao, who was entrusted by Chu Tianxiu to Tsushima Island. Although on the surface, this island is also an uninhabited island, it is actually because Chu Tianxiu sent Five hundred soldiers and horses were cleaned there.
