^_^ "The last batch of immigrants this year have arrived, and the entire city is about to usher in great development." On July 8, 1663, a group of people were fiddling with a small sloop on the seaside woodlands of Hue Port (i.e., Rio de Janeiro City), who is currently temporarily serving as the defense issues of the entire city, said this.

Rio de Janeiro, the former capital of the General Region, and a famous city in the southern region of Portuguese Brazil, has now fallen into the hands of the East Coast people for a long time. There should be no doubt that the East Coast people are really determined to win this city and are absolutely unwilling to leave it to the Portuguese. For this reason, they have vigorously implemented the laws and regulations of the East Coast Republic of China within the jurisdiction of this small coastal general.

Naturally, such laws involving religion, economy, ethnicity and land policies will inevitably cause an uproar among the local Portuguese residents, which will arouse their strong dissatisfaction and struggle. In fact, this kind of struggle has indeed happened. A large number of vineyards and manors either rise up or secretly support the people who resist, in short, make the situation in the entire Rio de Janeiro General Region a mess. At present, more than a thousand officers and soldiers of the Youguo Army are fighting in various places to fight to put out the fire.

However, is the turbulent situation in Rio de Janeiro really not what the people of the East Coast want to see? In fact, from a dark perspective, the East Coast government has long been uneasy and feared by the large number of Portuguese, Mameluco and Tupi Indians in Rio de Janeiro and surrounding areas? Then, taking advantage of this opportunity to implement East Coast legal policies, the sensitive nerves of these Portuguese people were aroused and made them jump to the front desk to oppose the East Coast government overestimate their ability. So is there an excuse to suppress them and catch them all in one go?

The Youguo* Army, a cannon fodder unit composed of Polish prisoners of war, Ukrainian serfs and criminal prisoners in the East Coast, has killed no less than 500 Portuguese and their mixed-race descendants so far? In addition, there are countless Indians killed by them. In short, the economic foundation of the local plantation has disappeared. The Portuguese either honestly accepts the laws of the East Coast, or finds ways to cross mountains and ridges to return to the controlled area of ​​Portugal. Anyway, the people on the East Coast will not stop you.

"The superiors didn't know what they thought. So many Tupi Indians were leaving in one sentence, saying that they wanted to go to build roads and docks. But after the roads and docks were repaired, they didn't return the people to us, saying that they wanted to send them to Hezhong and Yicheng to support local economic development. This is simply, and we don't need human development, and Indians can't do it, so we were given 3,000 people, which is too few." An official busy in a small shipbuilding/shipping yard left by the Portuguese complained to Zhou Yafu.

He had learned a lot of knowledge after graduating from the Corps Fort, so he was sent to take over and manage the "heritance" of the Portuguese in Hue Harbor. There were six sugar-pressing workshops, one flour mill, one timber mill, one wine-making workshop, one ship repair/ship yard, and a small earth kiln for burning bricks. In short, it was so cold that he was very cold that he even wanted to question the surrendered Portuguese officials in the city, what have you done over the years, and how have you developed such a pitiful family background? Is this the reason for the human or the policy?

The sloop sailboat they are tossing is probably the only ship that this small boat can build. This kind of offshore boat with very low technical content rarely exceeds one hundred tons (usually around 30-60 tons), so it can engage in offshore transportation and fishing, and nothing else can be done. However, considering that Hue Port is in a mess and all kinds of production needs to be restored, the workers in this small boat yard will not be idle, and at the same time can also support the fishing industry of Hue Port (there is a small-scale fishing ground nearby, reaching the waters of Parana Guawan in the south and the northeast of Brazil, with production sloppy and increasing) so that everyone came to visit the shipyard.

Now that everyone has basically finished visiting, Zhou Yafu, after giving a brief encouragement to the Portuguese technicians in the shipyard, led the crowd to leave here and return to the city.

To be fair, the Portuguese in Rio de Janeiro were well built. The streets within the city were covered with bluestone, gravel or cobbles, and there was even a shallow drainage ditches on both sides of the road, which was quite good. The buildings on both sides of the road were mostly solid stone buildings, full of religious and Renaissance styles. To a certain extent, these buildings that were built decades or even a hundred years ago were actually considered cultural relics. The East Coast people did not have the religious cleanliness of the Iberians. When they saw the religious buildings of pagans, they insisted on pushing down and building their own. On the contrary, they kept most of the buildings in Rio de Janeiro (except those that were severely damaged during the war and had no restoration value). At the same time, they also further planned the city and built many traditional buildings in the East Coast and even the Eastern Oriental styles, which made the entire city echo each other and beautiful.

"After the last batch of immigrants arrived this year, according to the data disclosed by the Immigration Department, the total population of the country has reached a scale of 1.41 million, which once again hit a record high. Of course, some parts of this data are estimated. After all, the population is increasing now, and it is difficult to accurately count. The cost is too high, but it is generally accurate and the error is not very large. Haha, before we knew it, the population of our country has risen to such a level, and it is only a population gap of 300,000 to 400,000 to the Kingdom of Portugal. It is optimistic that it will be tied within a few years." Sitting in the office of the former official of the Kingdom of Portugal, young

Lieutenant Zhou Yafu said with great enthusiasm: "Although the population of more than 1.4 million is not very burdened to the country, if we are given five to ten years to integrate and digest it, it will become our own strength. And how to digest these people, I think we still have to settle down to allow them to adapt to our rhythm in long-term management, be familiar with our laws and social customs, and finally achieve the goal of being partially assimilated. By the way, the people from the Brazilian rural financial cooperative shouted in. Now that I am the military management committee member of this area, I also have the obligation to do a good job in local construction during this period."

The orderly officer soon invited people from the Brazilian rural financial cooperative. This east coast financial official with a bearded face and was born in Gena*ia was full of fatigue. He seemed to have not had a good rest recently. At this time, he saw Zhou Yafu, and sighed and said, "Commissioner Zhou, please forgive me for not being able to agree to your suggestions. It is really ridiculous to suggest raising sheep around the city and lending to farmers in kind (sheep). As we all know, sheep are an animal that is very afraid of humid climates, that is,

The so-called anti-rot-resistant Wujiang sheep that have been bred for many years in our domestic breeding station may not be able to adapt to the climate here. Once it is stocked on a large scale, the mortality rate will definitely be very high, and farmers will not be able to pay the loss. How can we collect our loans back then? Please be honest, the sheep farming industry in the country is gradually shifting to the Patagonia-Taiwan area. After all, it is very suitable for raising sheep and the cost is very low. Therefore, I will not agree to the request for in-kind agricultural loans by Hue Port. "

Zhou Yafu was a little embarrassed when he heard this, so he changed the topic and said, "You are thinking too much, Supervisor Wang. The last time I was not thinking well and made random decisions. After I went back, I learned my mistakes and decided not to violate the economic laws and follow the original. Since the Portuguese mainly planted sugarcane, tobacco and cotton here, we will directly resume production here. Anyway, the land is ready-made, and it will be divided directly. The only thing that needs your help now is that your club can quickly get some rations, agricultural tools, seeds, fertilizers and even cash loans (cash loans to farmers to buy land) for new immigrants, so that they can organize production as soon as possible. After all, the conditions in Hue Port are relatively superior. If you resume production one day earlier, the people will live a good life one day earlier."

Supervisor Wang's face cleared when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he said, "You should have done this. Let's do this. Although the funds in our company are relatively tight, who asked you to be the key support area established by the top leaders? I will prepare all the physical and cash loans you want. Later, you asked me to come to my office to discuss the details. In addition, I would like to remind you that it is best to focus on the development of sugar and cotton. Forget it, there may not be too much trouble. The market has gradually become saturated and the profit is not large. Our country still needs some sugar and cotton production areas. You Hue Port use these two as the leading products, and your future prospects are promising, so that the bank's loan can also recover the principal and interest as soon as possible."

"In addition, I heard that the State Development Administration intends to add several new settlements around Hue Bay (each is Xinxia Township near the city of New Iguazu in the later generations, Hefeng Township near San Gonzalo on the other side of Hue Port, Suhai Township near Itaguazi City, Jianyan Township near Itabolazi City and Songxing Township near Petropolis City). You are under a lot of pressure, not only economic but also public security. I heard that the natives there are not easy to mess with?" Supervisor Wang couldn't help but say at last.
