Chapter 907-1 The final decision.
Tan Jingang clasped his fists and said:
"Grandpa Emperor, we didn't kill anyone on a large scale. It's just that the population here is small. Besides, there are constant wars between the small countries every year."
Tan Bamao is Ye Kun's godson.
As the grandson of Tan Bamao, Tan Jingang must call Ye Kun "grandfather".
Lu Qiangguo, like his father Lu Kaijiang, has a strong character and clasped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, if the alien population is too large, they will absorb our Chinese culture and technology and may counterattack us. I think the alien population here can be reduced a little.
It would be best if all the people here were replaced by Han Chinese within 30 years."
Bao Sheng also had the same idea and said, "Your Majesty, if you want Chinese civilization to take root here, you must have Chinese blood as a carrier. Those who are not of our race must have different hearts."
"What you said is true, but I can't bear it."
Ye Kun waved his hand and made the final decision: "The current task is to develop the oil industry, build the peninsula, and support China's global expansion plan, not... killing people."
As a time traveler, Ye Kun has a humanitarian spirit.
He repeatedly warned Qin Erwu and other overseas generals not to kill innocent people indiscriminately or engage in massacres.
However, Ye Kun's desire to let the Chinese people occupy the whole world conflicts with his kindness.
Bao Sheng is right.
If we want Chinese civilization to become mainstream overseas, we must have a carrier.
This carrier is the descendants of the Chinese nation.
Get rid of the other races and only the Chinese will be left, and naturally there will only be Chinese culture and civilization.
This is also what Ye Kun is struggling with.
Bao Sheng clasped his fists and said, "We will obey the emperor's order. The current oil peninsula still needs a large number of laborers, and the existence of foreign races is also good for us."
Ye Kun nodded: "That's right. To mine and refine oil, we will need more labor in the future. Farms and estates also need people to take care of them. We also need to build roads and many other projects... Let foreign laborers work and give them a bowl of rice, we will not suffer any loss."
Everyone nodded together.
After the meal, everyone said goodbye and Ye Kun also planned to rest.
Unexpectedly, Ye Shusheng sent a telegram to greet Ye Kun.
In the telegram, Ye Shusheng also said that he planned to come in person to meet Ye Kun, the Empress Dowager, and his mother Xie Baochan.
Xie Baochan was very excited and asked what Ye Kun meant.
Ye Kun thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Empress Bao, I had planned to personally send you across the Persian Gulf to reunite with Shusheng. But now it seems that I am afraid I will not be able to leave for a while. Since you miss your son, why not let Shusheng come over."
Xie Baochan was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
"You and I are husband and wife, what are you thanking me for?"
Ye Kun called Ye Shusheng back and asked him to make his own decision and come to the Oil Peninsula when the time was right.
By this time, Ye Shusheng had already crossed the Persian Gulf and entered the eastern coast of the Mediterranean.
Three bases were also built.
If Ye Kun had not allowed it, the Eastern Roman Empire would have been completely conquered by Ye Shusheng!
Moreover, through the increase in troops and immigration over the years, Ye Shusheng's subordinates have reached a scale of 300,000.
If he coughed now, the entire Eastern Roman Empire would tremble.
After replying the telegram, Ye Kun and Xie Baochan rested together.
Xie Baochan asked: "Your Majesty, if I go to the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, will I never see you again?"
"Silly, our technology is still developing rapidly, and transportation will get better and better. Shouldn't it be easy to meet in the future?"
"But we are all a bit old." Xie Baochan smiled bitterly:
"I envy Sister Yourong so much. I can stay by your side forever and grow old with you. I also want to stay by your side, but I miss my children and can't let go of either side. This makes me... feel like a knife is cutting my heart."
Ye Kun sighed: "Baochan, Yuejuan also said something like this. But, I can't split myself into two. In this life, I have failed your love. If there is a next life, I will definitely..."
"Your Majesty, stop talking."
Xie Baochan burst into tears and blocked Ye Kun's mouth: "Let me see the children first. Maybe I will come back and stay with the emperor forever."
Ye Kun nodded: "Okay, after meeting Shu Sheng, we will discuss the future."
The next day, Ye Kun inspected the port again.
Bao Sheng urged Ye Kun: "Your Majesty, the port conditions are too poor, let's go to the oil city."
The Oil City is a newly built city located in the south of the Oil Peninsula, a day's journey away.
The sanitary conditions and infrastructure there are relatively better.
Ye Kun nodded and led everyone to the oil city.
Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "This oil city doesn't sound very nice. Your Majesty is well-versed in history, why don't you give this city a name?"
Ye Kun looked at Xie Baochan and said, "Madam Baochan, you were born into a scholarly family, you are beautiful and intelligent, why don't you give me a name?"
"Let me give you a name? Then I'll give it a try."
Xie Baochan smiled and said thoughtfully: "This place is located in the western part of China, and Changgeng Star is in the west. Otherwise, how about calling it... Changgeng New City?"
Ye Kun laughed: "This is a good name, Changgeng Star, which means eternal brightness. It's a good meaning!"
Bao Sheng smiled and said, "I obey your command. I will change the name of the Oil City to Changgeng New City."
There is a two-meter-wide gravel road leading to Changgeng New City.
The road condition is not very good.
Ye Kun said: "The roadbed of this avenue seems to be good. We need to use asphalt or cement to harden it. By the way, the avenue needs to be widened. This is the main road leading to the seaside and the lifeline of transportation. It must be of high quality."
Bao Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, we are still short of manpower after all. We have the will but not the strength to carry out many construction projects. This road is 170 miles long. Widening and hardening it is no small project."
"Bao Sheng, I use you because I value your talent. Now is the time for you to show your talent."
"Your Majesty is right. I will live up to everyone's expectations and work hard to build an oil peninsula!" Bao Sheng didn't dare to complain anymore.
What Ye Kun said was also true.
I asked you to come here to solve the problem, not to leave it to me!
I have to solve everything by myself, why do I need you?
Tan Jingang said: "I have more than 4,000 soldiers under my command. There are no combat missions recently. We can transfer some of them to come here to repair the road."
Lu Qiangguo laughed and said, "Call a few foreign tribal leaders, give them some ironware, porcelain, food and clothes, and let them bring slaves to work. If they dare not obey, I will destroy them!"
The several small kingdoms that originally existed on the Oil Peninsula were all slave societies.
Ye Kun nodded: "Let's combine the two. We will send some people, and let the local natives send some people to build the road together. For those foreign tribal leaders, we should try to use both kindness and force, put some pressure on them, and also give them some benefits.
That way, they’ll give us more to do.”
Everyone nodded together.
Bao Sheng added: "Your Majesty, the road conditions here are not very good, but the construction of Changgeng New City is very good, you will definitely be satisfied."
