After the feast, it’s time to wait.

After the beginning of autumn, cheers were heard from the sea surface at the mouth of the Liaohe River.

Yelu Dagu and Wu Mi beside him both stared at the three-masted sailing ship in front of them with their eyes wide open.

The tall tusk beast was perched on the corner of the ship, and coated with mineral fuel, it looked even more ferocious.

It's terrifying to watch from a distance.

“It’s a really huge monster.”

Wu Mi widened her eyes. For the first time, she felt that human power could actually be so powerful.

Such a large ship, with three floors and more than ten meters high, I wonder how much thought and financial resources the State of Yan spent on building it.

Soon, the boat docked and the plank road became busy.

Figures walked down slowly and formed a formation quickly.

Two hundred people in total!
The country bumpkins who were watching the ceremony were simply stunned.

“Is this the State of Yan?”

"How terrible! Any large ship can swallow hundreds of people."

"Yes! Yes! The Yan State must have the help of ghosts and gods!"

Not long after, a young man who was familiar yet a little strange to everyone came down.

"Meet Beibo!"

The loud voices and the salutes continue without interruption.

"I didn't expect that he would come in person." Wu Mi was a little surprised.

But when looking at Xin Qu, there was a little more jealousy.

This guy is getting more and more powerful.

"No need to be polite. This time, I have brought 10,000 dan of millet. You should hurry up and arrange for its transportation."

Xin Qu gave instructions and then came to Yelu Dagu and Wu Mi: "Let's go. As the host, you have to introduce the scenery of Liaodi."

"Yes!" Yelu Dagu looked at Xin Qu, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes with ornate patterns inlaid with gold thread embroidery, and then looked at himself and the Sushen and Wimen people on his left and right who were dressed in white. He couldn't help but feel suppressed by their temperament.

Walking out of the dock, you can see scattered houses.

These houses were built in a disorderly manner, and quite a few of them had smoke rising from their chimneys.

It is obvious that Yelu Dagu did not strengthen the road maintenance between the wharf and Liaoyang County, nor did he strengthen the urban construction planning.

Most of the time, it is allowed to develop in a barbaric way.

"We can add six more post stations between the wharf and Liaoyang, and then redistribute the nearby population around the six post stations."

Xin Qu pointed to the post station that he saw halfway through the journey and said, "With the shipyard in Tianjin fully operational, the Bohai Sea will exist as the inland sea of ​​our Yan State.

The geographical environment of Liaohe River and Liaoze determines that this will be the best communication point between the Northeast and Yan State.

This area will have great development prospects in the future.

Start planning ahead of time to avoid serious conflicts with local tribes or other autonomous families over land later.

Moreover, this area determines whether Peking can continue to provide support to Liaodong.

It is also a strategic location for conquering the Northeast Plain and exerting influence in the future.

You have personally repaired Juyongguan Pass, so you should be very clear about how to deal with the four words "adapting measures to local conditions", right?"

Yelu Dagu nodded and said, "You have to eat one bite at a time. My recent experience has been to build a new city near the Shen River in the north.

There are more wives and more children in the family, so we have to build more property." "Is that so? That's good too." Xin Qu nodded without lecturing too much, "I will send you the "Construction Methods" that I have summarized recently.

When the time comes, you can have someone copy it and send it out. Any force that chooses to be incorporated into our Yan State system must use this construction method as a blueprint for its construction.

This can also save a lot of unnecessary conflicts.

Remember, don't think of yourself as a conqueror. We are the masters of this land, and these indigenous people have married into our family, so we are one family.

Since we are family, we can talk if we can. "

"Okay." Yelu Dagu responded, but obviously didn't listen.

Xin Qu didn't care. As a first-generation pioneer, how could it be so easy to reduce hatred?

Not everyone is like Xin Qu, willing to spend money to buy the respect of being conquered.

"Okay, don't start talking about government affairs right away. Tell me, I heard that Linzi is now Prince Xun's territory, but King Shang is preparing to move west to Shangqiu for sacrifice. What are you going to do?"

Wu Mi stopped Xin Qu's preaching and asked this question.

Xin Qu frowned slightly: "Where did you get the information from?"

"Hey! On the sea! I can tell you that recently, Prince Xun has been conquering the coastal Dongyi in Linzi and Donglai. He has forced many tribes to flee to the sea, and some have even crossed the ocean and come to my territory.

Recently, my men went to the Lelangshui area you mentioned. It is true that more than one-third of the tribes in the Lelangshui area were formed by marriage alliances after crossing the ocean from the west.

Of course, this group of people were mostly just serving as a scapegoat for the big clans in Lelang. Some of them no longer considered themselves to be from the east and thought they were a branch of the Wimok. "

After listening to the explanation, Xin Qu finally understood the origin of the current population of the Korean Peninsula.

There are roughly three parts.

A fishing and hunting tribe that originated in Changbai Mountain, namely the Wimok.

The fishing and hunting tribe originated from the Shandong Peninsula, namely the Dongyi people.

The last are the nomadic forces that migrated from the grasslands about 10,000 years ago and huddled in the Ungjin and Gyeongsang areas, namely the ancestors of the Three Han. Of course, due to geographical reasons, these ancestors of the Three Han had become mainly fishermen and hunters at this time.

The living environment of these three branches is rather chaotic.

The Dongyi tribe and the Yemok forces mainly lived in the plains north of Ungjin and Gyeongsang.

The Three Han forces all hid in the river valleys between the mountains, and their population was extremely limited.

If we have to say it, the current Korean Peninsula was actually colonized by the Dongyi and the Wimok peoples of the Three Han.

However, due to the recent arrival of Ziwu Mi from Lelang County, some tribes have begun to flee into the territory of the Three Kingdoms of Korea.

This may accelerate the integration of the three ethnic groups.

Thinking of this, Xin Qu said, "Did you leave enough people for the reclamation this time when you captured slaves?"

"Don't worry, I've definitely left enough." Wu Mi nodded, "Although there are many good places in this area, there are also many bad places.

Have you considered building a trading port here?"

"For the time being...well, forget it. On the other side of the Yalu River, I will have people set up Andong County, and then open a trading point here." Xin Qu thought about it and still did not refuse.

Wu Mi frowned and said, "Can't we go south? Pyongyang or Lelang, which one is not better than Andong you mentioned? Andong... that's just a mountainous area."

"We have no choice but to choose that side." Xin Qu explained: "When you have completely controlled the entire peninsula and destroyed the Samhan tribe hiding in Xiongjin, Lelang will be a stable place.

Otherwise, I would rather choose Andong, because it would be convenient for my troops to provide support. More importantly, to the north of Andong is the Yalu River and Changbai Mountain, which can connect many tribes.

I have been strengthening the construction of the Central Plains recently. There is an extreme shortage of population, so I have annexed all the nearby Xia tribes that I can. As long as I can attract some of these wild people in the mountains, they will be very useful even if they are used as landfill in the future."

"Okay." Wu Mi couldn't object after hearing this reason. "Then you should build a trade port in Andong as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will have to cross mountains and rivers and walk a long way every time I transport goods. It's quite troublesome."

"No problem." (End of this chapter)
