Chapter 1454 Future Plans
After returning to Lushun, Chen Yixin's life rhythm slowed down, as if he had returned to the state in which he was in charge of civil affairs in Majiazhuang.Although the material transshipment business at the port is still very busy, compared to the fast-paced environment of the front line, Lushun in the rear can really be described as "leisure".
Chen Yixin's daily task is to go to the port early in the morning, check the goods to be shipped, and then see if there are any ships and materials scheduled to arrive at the port today. Shaxi handles some civil affairs.It won't be too busy, but it won't be too busy to do anything. In your spare time, you can sit down and drink tea, or go fishing on the pier, which is the most comfortable time in recent times.
Shaxi is also very enthusiastic about Chen Yixin, who used to work in the South, and invites him to dinner every night. On the one hand, he is discussing work arrangements, and on the other hand, he uses this to continue to win over the relationship. news.Although Shaxi is currently the nominal chief executive of the Liaodong region, the actual control of the local area is still in the hands of the military, and this situation may continue for several months, so he must also try to grasp the movement of the military, So as not to fall into a passive situation like the manpower problem.
"Speaking of which, apart from being colder in winter, there is nothing bad about this place in Liaodong. You see, at least there is a lot of food here. You can run on the mountains, fly in the sky, swim in the sea, you can eat whatever you want, old man. What a gluttonous land!" Sha Xi praised and put a piece of braised roe deer meat into his mouth, and said with an expression of enjoyment: "This roe deer meat is not fat at all, but it tastes tender and delicious when you eat it, it's really good something!"
Chen Yixin certainly wasn't eating roe deer meat for the first time. He said with a smile, "This roe deer meat warms the spleen and stomach, strengthens the heart and nourishes the lungs, and relieves dampness and impotence. Brother Sha can eat more to replenish his body."
Sha Xi smiled, put down his chopsticks and raised his glass, "Let's go first!"
The two of them clinked their glasses and drank each other, and Sha Xi said, "My family still lives there in Guangdong, and it's overkill, but there's no place to purify the fire. Unlike you, it's a big deal to go back to Fushan County by boat. , leave today and be home tomorrow. By the way, you don't have children yet, do you?"
Chen Yixin shook his head, but his wife was pregnant at this time, and the day of becoming a father was just around the corner.
Sha Xi gestured with two fingers and said: "I have two children now, one from each of the two women in the family, exactly one boy and one girl. If the development here goes well, the family will be brought to the north in half a year. Come, and have two more children!"
Chen Yixin said: "After that, will the child be sent back to Sanya to study, or will you stay by your side?"
Shaxi put down the chopsticks in his hand and replied in a deep voice, "Sanya has the benefits of Sanya, but in such a far place, I am too young to send it back. I plan to take it with me and send it out when I am about to grow up. See the world. Education is good, just in moderation, what I want is a successor who can revitalize the family, not a scientist."
"Don't you think about sending one or two children into politics in the future?" Chen Yixin is no longer the ignorant high school student at the time, and he is already considering some things that require long-term planning.
"Going into politics doesn't have to start in Sanya." Sha Xi paused for a moment, but still expressed some of his views: "In the future, the territory of the Haihan Kingdom will become larger and larger, and it will be difficult to implement the centralized system on the mainland. Most of the time, it is still necessary to adapt measures to local conditions and divide the local feudal lords in disguise. At that time, even if the local head family does not want the second generation to enter politics, the executive committee will not turn a blind eye. Just wait and see, no matter when the local officials are governors or senior officials For other positions, the executive committee should request that one or two direct children be sent to Sanya to study and work."
"This...isn't it a hostage?" Chen Yixin immediately understood what Shaxi meant, but he had never thought of such a possibility, and said stunned: "The Executive Committee should not use this method to deal with the colonies. Sir?"
"Then can you find a better way?" Sha Xi smiled and said, "After a few years, Taiwan and Liaodong will develop to be self-sufficient, and even when they form their own armed forces and appoint officials, some people will be born if they are not properly protected. Ambition comes. Even if you don’t dare to be independent, you have to set up your own system. If you create a small court at the local level, the executive committee will not necessarily intervene. Sending the next generation of the family to the capital to pledge, although this approach Old-fashioned, but it's a useful tactic, whether it's used as a local restraint or just a gentleman's agreement."
Chen Yixin was silent, he knew that the situation that Sha Xi said was very likely to happen in the near future.This has nothing to do with whether the political system is advanced or not, it is purely a practical need.Even with the existence of a communication tool like a radio station, the Haihan Executive Committee is still unable to achieve efficient and real-time supervision over a territory spanning thousands of miles in this era. It is necessary to restrict local officials from being loyal to Sanya without giving birth to two hearts, except for interests. In addition to the bundling, only some unconventional means can be used.
An official like Sha Xi who took the initiative to apply for a post in Liaodong, of course, the purpose is not simply to contribute to the country, Chen Yixin can also think that he must have some personal ambitions that need to be implemented with the help of his current position.Such officials who started to govern the locality during the initial period of the colony, as long as they do not commit serious mistakes or apply for themselves for some reasons, the executive committee will generally not easily move their positions, and they will acquiesce to their locality. special status and powers.
To put it bluntly, when everyone joined this group to participate in the time-travel operation, most of them had the intention to make a career in this time and space. Even if they could not squeeze into the executive committee with too few seats to experience the feeling of governing the country, at least To get a piece of territory under their jurisdiction to pass the addiction of being a local emperor.The Executive Committee will not tolerate acts of treason and independence, but it will certainly not mind giving some overseas colonies to those who have worked hard and are capable to operate, just like what Shaxi is currently experiencing.
The Executive Committee handed over the newly captured Liaodong territory to Shaxi, and asked the army to escort the development of Liaodong. Many internal difficulties can only be solved by Shaxi.He is both the manager and operator of this place, and he needs to bear a considerable part of the development investment, but if the local economy starts to gain in two or three years, he will also be the most direct beneficiary. If it is well managed, it can even pass on its power here to the descendants of the family.
Of course, if Sha Xi is not doing well here, and there is still no improvement after a year or two, then the Executive Committee will probably not have more patience to wait for Sha Xi to slowly toss, and will definitely select another person to replace him. .If you want to be a local emperor in an overseas colony, you can, but your ability and loyalty must be approved by the Executive Committee.
Seeing that Chen Yixin was silent, Sha Xi knew that his words might have touched a certain nerve in him, so he continued: "The route I took is only suitable for my own situation, and it is definitely not of great reference value to you. You lead troops to fight, you don't stay in one place for long, and you don't have many opportunities to operate in the local area. Unless you are willing to retire from the front line, like Qiao Zhiya and Shi Diwen, you simply sit in a certain place and don't leave, slow down. Slowly transitioning from the military to the political world can be regarded as the same goal, and they have embarked on the road I am now. Of course, their personal abilities are already very strong, and they have walked much more smoothly than me. "
Only then did Chen Yixin respond, "Brother Sha, you are right. One has to plan for the future. In fact, I have also used my own money to invest in some plantations in the south, and plan to gradually send some reliable relatives of my wife's family to the south. Take care of business. However, it is still difficult to see clearly the next generation. As you said, those of us who are soldiers may repeat our current living conditions for the next ten or twenty years, leading troops to conquer the north and south. When children grow up, most of them will join the army and take the path that their parents can give them shade."
Sha Xi picked up the wine bottle and filled the glass in front of Chen Yixin, poured himself another glass slowly, put down the bottle before answering: "Actually, there are many people who follow your path now, after all, plantation is a lucrative business. , as long as you are willing to spend money, you will be able to pay back your capital in a few years, and the profit period is long, and you can still profit from it ten or twenty years later. However, investments like yours are actually blind. Basically, I heard that there is no new The plantation project, and then put the money into it. I may not even know which way the plantation gate is open. Even the land deeds are stored in Sanya, and all the funds in and out are entrusted to the bank for escrow. The income is good. But it is far worse than running it yourself. Since you have already thought of sending relatives from your wife’s family to run the plantation, let me give you a suggestion, continue to invest in the south, and don’t ignore the north. Only by diversifying investment can you reduce the risk.”
Chen Yixin heard what he meant, so he took the initiative to ask: "Brother Sha means... to invest in Liaodong?"
Sha Xi nodded and said, "It's all investment. You invest in a plantation here. At least in the initial stage of development, you can keep an eye on it for a while, whether the land is good or bad, whether the area is large enough, and whether the workers you hire are honest and diligent. You can see these things with your own eyes. See, is it much more secure than the southern plantation where Mao has never seen a single one?"
Chen Yixin was slightly moved, and continued to ask, "Does Brother Sha have any plans for the development here?"
Sha Xixin said that he was afraid that you would not be interested in knowing, so he took the initiative to introduce: "Gao Huan from the Ministry of Agriculture came to Liaodong with me this time, and you met him two days ago. He is the direct disciple of Mr. Yuan, although I don't like socializing very much, and my temper is a bit boring, but he is really good at agricultural projects. The agricultural development plans in Liaodong are all planned by him. There are specific projects for agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline fishery, and absolute technical expertise. Guarantee, the difference is nothing more than capital and manpower. Although I have a little spare money, I can eat at most one-tenth of the land of more than 100 square kilometers in this place. But I don’t want to think about speculators outside. Let them in early, these guys are used to the land in the southern circle, and they will definitely take all the land in a few seconds. It will be inconvenient to take care of your own people in the future. If Brother Chen is interested, I will ask Gao Huan later I will give you a detailed introduction, and it is better to take care of you than to take advantage of outsiders."
Chen Yixin said: "Since it's a good thing, I'm probably not the only one who needs to take care of Sha Ge?"
Sha Xi nodded and said, "Since you asked, I won't hide it from you. The senior officials who came to Liaodong from Sanya this time, except for Gao Huan, who is now staying at Lushun Fort, Bai Kesi, Liu Shanxia, and Zhang Guang have all gone to the front line. You I should have seen them. These people have already greeted me, and the agricultural development project in Liaodong should be counted as their share."
The mission of these few people in Liaodong was not to stay in Liaodong for a long time. Baixie represented the military department to escort new equipment and test the actual results.Liu Shanxia is in charge of guiding the infrastructure affairs of Liaodong. Of course, his work focuses on the reconstruction of the defense line in the Jinzhou Isthmus.Zhang Guang's mission was to debug the communication equipment of each colony along the way, and to set up a regional communication center covering the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea and Liaodong on the Liaodong Peninsula.
These people are well-informed in Sanya and know that the newly incorporated colonies in the Haihan territory have great development potential, and the sooner they invest in the enclosure, the more cost-effective they are.However, Bai Kesi and others are all based in the south. Apart from spending money, it is difficult to play a practical role in promoting the development and construction of Liaodong.Even if Baixgui is an executive committee member, he cannot point fingers at affairs that are still managed by the military here.
Because of this, Sha Xi needed to find a partner in the army, and Chen Yixin, the youngest among these generals who happened to have worked with Sha Xi, was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.After the war in front came to an end, Qian Tiandun transferred Chen Yixin back to Lushun, which made Sha Xi like a drowsy encounter with a pillow, and just took this opportunity to further win over the relationship between the two.
Sha Xi doesn't mind giving Chen Yixin a piece of the pie in the development process of Liaodong, because he knows very well that it is difficult to eat such a whole piece of cake with his own strength. Make a bigger piece of cake, so that the benefits that are eventually shared with yourself may be more than if you swallowed it all at the beginning.Therefore, since he had seized the opportunity during the banquet today, he naturally wanted to agitate and persuade Chen Yixin to join his camp.If Chen Yixin is willing to join the team, Sha Xi even wants to pass him and drag Qian Tiandun and others in. He knows that if the military can help the development of Liaodong, the process will be much smoother than if he does it alone.And having a good relationship with the military will also have many long-term benefits for him to sit in Liaodong and govern localities in the future.

After returning to Lushun, Chen Yixin's life rhythm slowed down, as if he had returned to the state in which he was in charge of civil affairs in Majiazhuang.Although the material transshipment business at the port is still very busy, compared to the fast-paced environment of the front line, Lushun in the rear can really be described as "leisure".
