Chapter 1887 Kaohsiung Knowledge
When traveling abroad, he was able to take the initiative to restrain his desire to play, which added a lot of points to Yu Yao's impression of Li Min.Before Li Mo set off on the road, Yu Yao also gave him some local specialties, including a cluster of three-foot-high peach-colored corals. Although these things do not cost much to pick from the sea, they are expensive in the market. An expensive rarity.Li Mo couldn't come up with a gift of comparable value in return for a while, Yu Yao saw his embarrassment, and said with a smile that if he had the opportunity to go to North Korea as a guest in the future, it would not be too late for Li Mo to entertain him again.
The voyage from Magong Port to Kaohsiung Port in the southern part of Taiwan Island is shorter than that from Zhangzhou to Magong Port. Yu Yao specially made a little fuss about the route, and arranged for the fleet to take a slight detour along the west coast of Taiwan Island to go south, so that it can be done logically. Passing by the port of Dayuan in the Netherlands, let Li Wei see the gap between the port operated by the western colonists and Haihan.
"My lord, the coast ahead is Dayuan Port." Yu Yao reminded Li Mo without losing the opportunity to observe Dayuan Port with the binoculars in his hand.Of course, the fleet will not stop at Dayuan Port, so they can only take a look at it from a distance while "passing by".
Fortunately, the weather today is not bad. There is almost no fog on the sea, and the visibility is extremely high. With a telescope, you can even see the ships moored at the port terminal several nautical miles away.
Li Wei was also quite curious about the state of the port run by the Dutch, but what he saw through the binoculars was somewhat disappointing. There were only two Western-style sailboats with slightly larger hulls docked on the pier, and the others were all small sampans. , even compared with Magong Port, which has a small trade volume, there is an obvious gap.
"It seems that this is not a lively port." Li Luo quickly came to his conclusion, but he did not put down the telescope in his hand - this thing is really interesting, and after using it, he can't put it down. One of the gifts I got in the trip is far more useful than the corals that can only be used as decorations.
"The Dutch once tried to control the Fujian Strait, but because of our presence, they failed in the end." Yu Yao introduced proudly: "In order to preserve this colony, the Dutch finally chose to sign a peace agreement with our country. And give up stationing troops in Dayuan Port.”
The Dutch made this choice as a last resort. They are inferior to Haihan in terms of force. If they want to regain control of the Fujian Strait, they have to organize a fleet expedition from Batavia, but considering the other opponents The Dutch do not dare to use their old home to play an empty city plan, otherwise Spain, Portugal, and Mataram will take advantage of it, and Batavia will become very dangerous.In desperation, he could only choose to compromise and admit Haihan's dominance in the Fujian Strait.
However, Li Lu had never dealt with the Dutch, and basically knew nothing about the strength of the East India Company, and he didn't even know much about the grievances between Haihan and the Netherlands, so Yu Yao made this arrangement. The touch on him was very limited, and he didn't realize the full purpose of the other party.In Li Lu's view, the Haihan people might want to use the Dutch's surrender to prove their strength to themselves, but in fact this kind of action is a bit redundant, because on the Korean battlefield, the Haihan army has already proved itself with practical actions Even the cavalry of the Qing army were defeated by the Haihan army without any suspense. Li Luo did not think that the strength of the Dutch would be stronger than that of the Qing army.
Of course, Li Lu still praised Haihan's achievements very much. After all, this advantage was obtained by Haihan's actual fighting force, and there was nothing mixed in it.
The current situation in Dayuan Port is just as Li Wei saw it. Under the threat of force from Haihan, it has changed from the bridgehead of the Dutch East India Company's occupation of the Fujian Strait a few years ago to an ordinary colony.And Dayuan Port is too far away from Batavia. The one-month voyage has made many European immigrants suspicious of this lonely overseas destination with no prospect of development.Therefore, the population size of Dayuan Port has been stagnant in the past two years, and the level of infrastructure and agricultural development have naturally stagnated due to this.
The East India Company executives also clearly realized that Haihan's control over the Fujian Strait would not allow them to develop a large-scale colony on Taiwan Island. As for military use, it was delusional, so investment in Dayuan Port gradually slowed down.After all, with this spare money, it is better to open a few more plantations in the South China Sea, so at least it is sure to get economic returns.
If the functions of Penghu Magong Port tend to be military, then Kaohsiung Port is more inclined to the economic and trade field.Since the construction of Kaohsiung Port in 1632, Shengli Fort's planning for this place has been based on local agricultural products and deep processing industries, and it has built a regional trade center while carrying out large-scale agricultural development.
Since Kaohsiung Port has attracted a large number of investors from Fuzhou and Guangzhou through investment promotion means at the beginning of its construction, the development funds and manpower in the early stage are relatively sufficient, and it has not encountered the problems that are prone to occur in general colonial areas.Moreover, the location of Kaohsiung Port is built on the basis of the natural terrain of a natural haven, and the engineering investment required in the early stage is much smaller than that of ordinary trading ports.
The benefits brought by these advantages to Kaohsiung Port are obvious. Among the various ports built by Haihan in the coastal areas of Daming, the construction progress of Kaohsiung Port should be one of the fastest, and because of its large natural harbor area, there is still room for future development. It is quite large, and it will not be hindered by innate conditions like Victory Harbor. In just a few years, the space in the harbor will almost be developed.
And the chief officer appointed by Haihan here, like Kaohsiung Port, has great room for growth.Li Dou is one of the youngest among the senior officials in Haihan. When he and Chen Yixin were stationed on Dawanshan Island at the mouth of the Pearl River, they were both in their twenties.Later, the two were transferred to Penghu together in 1632, and then parted ways in Penghu the following year. Chen Yixin first went to Zhoushan, and then went all the way north to Liaodong, while Li Dou came to Kaohsiung to serve as the chief administrator.
In the blink of an eye, Li Dou has been in charge of Kaohsiung Port for four years. The high school graduate who participated in the time travel is now a mature man who is about to enter his [-]s.During Li Dou's tenure in Kaohsiung, he married a woman from Fujian, and now he has a son and a daughter, so he is flourishing in this time and space.
Regarding the itinerary arranged by Shenglibao for the heir of North Korea, Li Mo, Li Dou is more clear than Yu Yao. He knows that the purpose of Li Mo's trip south this time is to study in Sanya, and Shenglibao hopes to increase Li Mo's time on the way. In order to strengthen his understanding of Haihan's national strength.This trip to the south to visit various colonial ports under the rule of Haihan is to allow Li Wei to witness with his own eyes how Haihan manages a country with such a dispersed ruling area, so that he can understand Haihan's national political system and governance philosophy. I have a personal experience of the advanced nature.
However, Kaohsiung Port is different from Penghu. There are relatively richer economic development projects here, and there are much more things that can be shown to Li Lu than Penghu.
Before the ship docked completely, Li Luo had already noticed that the port facilities here were different from those in Magong Port. There were much more large cranes and iron frames for hoisting bulk cargo than in Magong Port. The track used to transport goods can be indirectly proved that the scale of cargo handling here should be higher than that of Magong Port.
Of course, the more intuitive evidence is that the number and tonnage of ships berthing at the wharf completely overwhelmed the Dayuan Port that Li Ye had only seen not long ago.When their fleet entered the port, there was almost no commotion. The staff and laborers on the dock still performed their duties and did not treat this fleet as a rarity.
At the Zhoushan and Penghu stations, Haihan's military officer went out to receive Li Mo, and here he finally met the No.1 Haihan senior civil official on this trip.However, from Li Lu's point of view, apart from not wearing a military uniform, this Master Li seems to have no difference in appearance from the Haihan military officer he has seen before. Share confidence.
"Welcome your son to Kaohsiung Port as a guest!"
Similar to the arrangement at Magong Harbor, Li Dou did not prepare any complicated welcome ceremony, and just brought a few subordinates to the pier to welcome Li Min's arrival.Facing Yu Yao who escorted Li Min and his party to Kaohsiung Port, Li Dou stretched out his hand to hold him tightly according to Hai Han's social behavior.He and Yu Yao have been working together for several years, and they have gotten to know each other quite well, so they don't need to talk about things in front of outsiders anymore.
Like other trading ports to which Haihan belongs, the urban area of Kaohsiung Port is also built close to the port area. Outside the urban area is a variety of economic crop plantations stretching inland for dozens of miles.Thanks to Haihan's efforts, the population now living here has exceeded 5000, and about two-thirds of them are engaged in agricultural work in the plantations.
"Our place is much richer in products than Penghu. I believe the prince can also feel this characteristic from the dinner table."
At the reception banquet, Li Dou easily joked with Li Min.However, what he said is not false. Kaohsiung has a very rich variety of local agricultural products. In the past two years, the construction of animal husbandry and breeding has begun. Coupled with the unique natural conditions of the fishery, it can be said that the agricultural development of Kaohsiung has covered all areas. Various categories.Almost all the ingredients, drinks, seasonings, and spices used in this banquet are locally produced, which is extremely rare among the many overseas colonies in Haihan.
There were indeed a lot of tropical fruits and vegetables on the dinner table that Li Min had never seen before. Although eating and drinking is a matter of appetite, it is also a special way to increase knowledge—at least Li Min thinks so.
Taking advantage of the relaxed topic of eating and drinking, Li Dou took advantage of the opportunity to introduce the local agricultural development to Li Min.
The agricultural development plan of Kaohsiung Port is hosted and directed by the Ministry of Agriculture of Haihan, which is divided into four major projects: agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery.Agriculture alone includes many categories such as grains, beans, potatoes, oil crops, vegetables, fruits, edible fungi, nuts, spice crops, etc., and each category includes several types.
Under the planning of the Ministry of Agriculture, varieties suitable for Kaohsiung's geographical and climate environment have been selected from a wide variety of crops, and large-scale planting has been realized locally in the form of collective farms or private plantations.And such an agricultural development model is also far superior to the traditional small-scale agricultural economic model in terms of output efficiency. It took less than two years to achieve local food self-sufficiency.
The large-scale planting of economic crops has brought room for development in the deep processing of local agricultural products. After the deep processing of sugar, hemp, tobacco, oil crops, and spice crops in local workshops, their economic value will also be doubled. Yield far exceeds that of traditional food crops.Therefore, although the Kaohsiung area appears to be a colonial area with agriculture as its main industry, the commodities exported from here to the outside world are not cheap crops such as rice.Most of the various businessmen who invested in the construction of plantations in Kaohsiung have now entered the harvest period. The good return on investment and the safety conditions under Haihan’s rule have also attracted more businessmen to come here with money and labor to get a share.
It is not just the planting industry that is driven by the primary industry. For example, the animal husbandry has driven the local leather processing industry, and the prosperity of the fishing industry has made several small local private shipyards flourish.The other supporting industries and service industries driven by this have enabled the local economy of Kaohsiung to develop soundly, and the average income level of residents has even exceeded that of some places on Hainan Island.
Although the development plan related to agriculture is formulated by the Ministry of Agriculture, as the local administrative chief, Li Dou has played an important role in it in the past few years.During this year's National Day, the Executive Committee has already commended his performance and approved the Ministry of Agriculture's proposal to use the Kaohsiung area as a national agricultural development demonstration zone.
In fact, Li Lu could not fully understand the information about agricultural development introduced by Li Dou, but he still tried his best to listen to every word Li Dou said, hoping to absorb some useful things from it.As Lidou said, agriculture is the main industry in the Kaohsiung area, so North Korea, which is also an agricultural country, should be able to learn some useful experience from Kaohsiung.It's just that due to the limited agricultural knowledge he has, he has never even heard of many crops mentioned by Li Dou, let alone understand their value.
This also made Li Wei feel a little helpless. The so-called book is full of hatred when it is time to use it. It can describe his current situation very well if it is not because of the past.Now Haihan people are willing to teach some experience in agricultural development, but he, a student, is too poor to understand the course, so that he has to waste this rare and great opportunity, which makes him very unwilling.
