Chapter 1577 Medicine can save people, luxury goods can only harm people
Seeing each other this time, Su Yonglin and Su Jue were very excited after a few years of separation.

"Don't ask me for putting you in Liaodong for so many years, you won't blame me, will you?"

"The chairman has always been fair. He put me in Liaodong because he believed in me and entrusted him with important matters. How could I blame you?"

"Having said that, Liaodong is also a land of bitter cold."

Su Yonglin smiled helplessly and said, "Even if I want to change your location, I won't go to any prosperous place, it's all borders, all places with bad environment, and far away from the central capital, with your position, unless You step back and take a back seat, otherwise it will be difficult to arrange for a scenic spot."

"Chairman, you understand me."

Su Jue said with a smile: "As a revolutionary soldier, I prefer to do things rather than rest. Wherever there is something to do, just let me go anywhere. The more things, the more complicated it is, the more troublesome it is to do, and the more people are needed. The more I deal with it, the happier I will be.”

Su Yonglin has nothing to say, he understands Su Jue's workaholic attributes.

So he patted Su Jue on the shoulder and gave him a hug, that's all.

Compared with Su Jue, Su Haisheng and Han Jinggui are much more lively. Both of them are typical talkative types, the type who don't talk and don't show fun. Fortunately, the Western Regions and grasslands are wide enough to give them enough space for activities. Sooner or later people suffocate to death.

When Su Yonglin saw them, they came together. As soon as they came, they chatted and laughed with Su Yonglin, and talked about the interesting things that happened in the grasslands and the Western Regions over the years. The words were full of excitement, and they were obviously very excited about their current state. is satisfied.

Compared with them, Zhang Yuejing seemed much more down-to-earth, sometimes lively, sometimes quiet, more like a normal person, so Zhang Yuejing became the first general to lead an army on his own.

Compared with them, Zhao Yucheng's feelings for Su Yonglin were obviously stronger.

After he received the news that he had been selected as the representative of the Central Committee, he quickly set off and hurried back to the Central Capital. When he met Su Yonglin, he presented the pearls he bought to Su Yonglin with his own pocket to Su Yonglin.

"This is the famous Hepu Nanzhu, which has been a royal tribute hundreds of years ago.

No one wants it, no one buys it. It was really hard for the pearl households who lived by fishing for pearls and a group of merchants who operated Nanzhu. Thanks to the alliance between Guangdong and Guangxi, Nanzhu was nationalized and sold overseas. Otherwise, many people will be called bankrupt. "

Su Yonglin took the Hepu Nanzhu brought by Zhao Yucheng, put it in his hand and watched it for a while, then smiled.

"The meaning of luxury is nothing more than to show the different identities of the upper class, so that they can stay away from the people, and the last thing we revolutionaries can't allow is to stay away from the people, so in any case, these things belong to ordinary goods than to become luxury goods. significance."

Zhao Yucheng blinked.

"Don't you like this?"

"You buy it yourself and give it to me, then I will accept it."

Su Yonglin smiled and said, "Although I don't use this thing, and your wife doesn't use it very much, but I heard that these pearls have medicinal value when ground into powder, so I'll keep them for emergencies. By the way, in this way, I On the contrary, it is recommended that all major pharmacies across the country purchase a batch of pearl grinding powder for use."

Zhao Yucheng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

"The superior people of all dynasties and dynasties are all precious pearls, but when they come to you, they become medicines and have to be eaten."

"Medicine can save people, luxury goods can only harm people."

Su Yonglin took the precious box of Hepu Nanzhu and smiled, "There are too many medicines in reserve, so I'm not afraid that they won't be used up. If there are too many luxury goods, the country will be in danger."

After speaking, Su Yonglin smiled again and asked, "How was your life in Lingnan these days? How did you get along with your wife?"

Zhao Yucheng touched his head and smiled.

"I wasn't used to it at first, but now I'm farther away, and I miss it a little bit."

"Hahahahahaha."

Su Yonglin laughed loudly and said, "That's right, I wasn't used to it at first, but as time goes by, I feel that I'm not used to it without a woman by my side, and I feel as if something is missing in my heart. After a while, I'll have a child, and then I'll be fine. happier."

"Actually... already there."

Zhao Yucheng laughed and said, "It was found out a month ago, and it's been almost three months now."

Su Yonglin was greatly surprised.

"Yo! This is a big happy event. Don't forget to tell me when the time comes. Although it's hard to get through, it's good to have a gift."

"I will tell you."

Zhao Yucheng cracked his mouth and laughed, obviously very happy.

To be honest, what happened between Zhao Yucheng and his wife was a bit of a legend.

After the Guangdong and Guangxi were basically settled, Zhao Yucheng led the army to station in Guangdong, helping the people in Guangdong to reclaim wasteland, build houses and water conservancy, and take on the tasks of killing and driving wild animals, bandits and robbers, and creating a safe living and production for the local people. surroundings.

Although the Ming army stationed in Guangdong and Guangxi greatly expanded the scope of activities of the local Han people, this scope is still relatively small compared to the entire Guangdong and Guangxi.

Most of the mountains, forests and wilderness are not the scope of activities of the Han people. They belong to either beasts or foreigners. The scope of activities of the Han people is limited to parts of the surrounding areas of the city, and the ruled area is basically point-to-point rule.

This also brought a certain degree of danger to the local Han people and the government.

The foreign tribes in the Lingnan area have a long history, which can be traced back to the pre-Qin period. At that time, the ancestors of the Huaxia tribe were full of martial arts, and it was not enough to expand their territory only in the Yellow River Basin.

Both the Shang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty expanded their territories from the center of the Yellow River Basin to the east and south, accepting the local conquered ethnic groups into the Huaxia people, while the local aborigines who were defeated but did not want to be conquered kept fleeing south, and eventually escaped. Settled in Lingnan.

In different eras, the foreign residents in these places have different names. The names of Sanyue and Sanmiao are all collective names for the ethnic groups that were defeated and then moved southward in the history of the Chinese people's territorial expansion for thousands of years.

In fact, let alone the Han people in the Central Plains Dynasty, they didn't know what ethnic group these people were, and they themselves might not know their origin.

Because of the lack of written records and the limit of word of mouth, plus they have fallen in love with each other for more than a thousand years, conquered and intermarryed each other, they have long been in the state of you and me, and they are also collectively referred to as "Nanman". ""Nan Yi" and the like.

The ancestors of China began to settle in the Lingnan land from the Qin Dynasty, and then officially established the county management when Emperor Wu of the Han destroyed Nanyue, where they also have a history of activities for thousands of years.

However, because the central dynasty paid little attention to these marginal territories most of the time, was unwilling to invest a lot of resources to develop it, and indeed lacked the technical means to develop the local area, the development of the local Han people was always limited.

Due to the limited investment of troops and finances, the local Han people can only radiate outward from the city center, and the radiation distance is quite limited.

In addition, due to the limitations of the landlord class, the emperors wantonly seized the reclaimed land and were unwilling to take the initiative to reclaim the wasteland, which greatly hindered the process of the Han people's spontaneous development of the wasteland.

By the time the Ming army entered Guangdong and Guangxi, the activities of the Han people accounted for about [-] to [-] percent of the entire Lingnan area. Although there were many areas where the land was relatively fertile, most areas were not under the control of the government. middle.

It means that the resource utilization rate of the Ming Dynasty in Guangdong and Guangxi is actually relatively low, and this situation is also quite dangerous.

Foreign tribes and beasts are threatening the Han people engaged in agricultural production all the time, and the relationship between the three aspects is rather delicate.
