The evening of December 21st, Surabaya.

In the conference room of the Government Affairs Hall, excited officials of all sizes gathered. News of the signing of the treaty had spread, and the entire Surabaya was gradually boiling.

"Yi Ming! Did the Dutch agree so easily?" Chen Jiangtao seemed to be still dreaming. He was a Dutchman. Two hundred years later, he just signed like this?

"The copy of the treaty is here, everyone, let's take a look!" Liu Yiming looked at the group of people who wanted to see but were embarrassed to speak. He found it quite funny and laughed himself.

"Article 1. With the approval of the Queen, the two parties have communicated and from now on, the island of Java, a subordinate colony of the Netherlands, will be sold to the Chinese for 1.2 million pounds."

"Article 2: The Dutch government recognizes the legitimacy of the Chinese regime and the Republic of South China."

"Article 3. Dutch military forces must completely withdraw from Java before December 27, 1890."

"Article 4: The Netherlands takes the initiative to hand over the city of Batavia and will maintain the integrity of the city of Batavia."

"Article 5. The Republic of South China shall release captured Dutch soldiers in accordance with the provisions of the treaty."

"Article 6: The Dutch government should compensate the Nanhua government for its actions in protecting Dutch civilians and providing living supplies during the war."

"Article 7: Trade between the two sides should not be affected by war, and corresponding trade policies should be written into subsidiary treaties."

…………

"This treaty will be witnessed by the British Empire and will supervise the performance of both parties."

"Win! Win!"

No matter how many victories they have won on the battlefield before, it is not intuitive enough for these people, and it is difficult for people who lack political education to understand the significance of victory after victory.

"Okay, we have temporarily won, but the Dutch will not give up. It is foreseeable that we may fight again at any time!" Liu Yiming thought further and finally broke through the quagmire.

The Treaty of Surabaya was signed. Before it was signed, Liu Yiming kept thinking about it. After it was signed, Liu Yiming stopped thinking about it. Those who remain silent in victory will definitely face failure.

The biggest effect of this treaty was to give Pumpkin legitimacy. It held the lifeblood of the Dutch people - the population - in its hands, and turned Pumpkin from an insurgent government into a legal government authorized by the Queen of the Netherlands.

Although Liu Yiming didn't care about the Queen of the Netherlands, the Europeans did, which opened the door for the future development of South China. Not to mention, when he deceived scientists, he at least did it in the name of the country, not an unknown region.

This is like the relationship between Tower Li Ban and the Imperial Cemetery. Even if they get political power, a lot of people will not recognize it. These are not important, but they are also important. You can probably understand it after studying history. This is a bit like us

In the 1950s and 1960s, if a single partner went wrong, the results would be catastrophic.

"The state of military control can be gradually lifted, and industrial production will be shifted to full operation first. The military industry will use small steps and fast running as the principle to train skilled workers and make technical preparations first." Liu Yiming said and found that the effect was not good. Everyone

They were all listening, but obviously distracted.

"It's not time to celebrate yet! We just won on the surface!" Liu Yiming was a little angry.

"Did the Dutch lose?" Liu Yiming looked at the big eyes and small eyes in the hall...

"We won, yes, but our role was not big. Java is one of the most important colonies of the Dutch, why would they let it go so easily?" Liu Yiming was eager to wake up these people.

Some people were thoughtful, but most people were still staring blankly.

"Our navy is extremely weak. If this time, the Dutch only need to evacuate the civilians in Batavia, run to Sumatra, and fight a war of attrition with us across the strait, there will be nothing we can do against them!" Liu Yiming said.

"Why did the Dutch sign the contract in principle? Because he was not ready and no one helped him. More importantly, we have tens of thousands of Dutch people and tens of thousands of soldiers in our hands. He cannot afford to lose!" Liu Yiming hopes that he can

Explain it clearly to them.

"I have reached preliminary cooperation with the British, involving industry, military, trade, and multiple industries, and the amount exceeds 10 million pounds. Therefore, the British closed the Suez Canal and refused the Dutch to use the port. They could not get through. Britain

The Straits Settlements frequently crack down on pirates, and this is the last steel pipe that will crush the Dutch!" Liu Yiming has already laid it out, and there are only seventy or eighty people there, and there are only a few who can hear it.

"Commander, ten million pounds is a bit unaffordable for us." Xu Hui stood up with a confused look on his face when he heard this number.

"Don't worry, a large part of the 10 million pounds will be paid in batches within five years. Generally speaking, the pressure is not great, and after the trade starts, the goods can be deducted." Liu Yiming said confidently.

"Okay, everyone, go back and think carefully about what I said. Also, we will expand the meeting tomorrow. The theme of the meeting is the development of Nanhua in the next five years. All departments, including civil affairs, industry, military, economy, and culture, must have plans!

"Although Liu Yiming already has a draft, in order to train these people, it is better to let them think on their own.

The five-year plan is almost a magic weapon. Liu Yiming doesn’t know how many years he has, so he can only prepare as much as possible. As for money, Liu Yiming is not worried. Although the population is not large (Chinese), there are many natives! And the natives,

The most is gold.

For those who are willing to run out of the jungle and work hard, Liu Yiming will still give him a chance, but it will definitely not be like Indonesia. Too many ethnic groups is not a good thing. Change the ethnic groups, and throw those who don't change into road construction, mining, etc.

It will be changed.

…………

The next day, Liu Yiming came to the office early and sat quietly waiting.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, Xu Hui came in.

"Commander, please show me, is it okay to write like this?" Xu Hui smiled sheepishly and handed over a book! Yes, a book, but it's not too thick.

It's hard to imagine that a person can write a book in one night. Liu Yiming looked at Xu Hui's thick smoky makeup, sighed, and opened up this strange five-year plan.

Liu Yiming watched quietly as more and more people came in. They were all supervisors of various departments. It seemed that they had not slept all night. Liu Yiming deliberately tormented these people. After a few more tosses, they would get better.

"Well, Xu Hui! What I want is actually a plan, that is, you set a goal, and then discuss its feasibility and effect. But fortunately, when the plan is approved, you can make a plan after making some changes."

Liu Yiming thought for a long time before telling Xu Hui.

"The same goes for everyone. The most important thing is the feasibility of the plan. Set a goal, achieve something, and then judge its feasibility and explain its role. As for the specifics, there is no need to write it into the plan." Liu Yiming added.

Said to the others.

"Take steel production as an example. It is theoretically feasible to achieve a total steel production of one million tons within five years, but how many manpower will be needed? Will it have a big impact on other industries? Do we need so much steel and the flow of steel.

You only need to create a feasibility standard and how to use so much steel. You don't have to write down all the iron ores to be mined." Liu Yiming half-complained.

"Give me your plans. It's getting late. Let's have a meeting first and use my draft first. But I hope you will know your position clearly when you get the plan next time." Liu Yiming said.

A few tables and a few benches were temporarily added to the hall, and it became a simple auditorium, which was fine. Liu Yiming was considering which place would be more suitable for establishing a capital city, and then proceeding with conference construction.

"Today's meeting is mainly to let you know the focus of your future work. To put it bluntly, at least for the next five years, this position will belong to you here. You can't be busy here. At the last minute, give it to others.

!" Liu Yiming told a cold joke first, but it also had the meaning of calming people's hearts.

"Of course, Nanhua law will come out in a while. If it is illegal, then I can't protect you. What should I do? Don't say I'm unkind!" Liu Yiming said.

"I plan to initially establish a basic industrial system in the next five years, a heavy industry based on metallurgy, machinery, chemical industry, and defense industry, and a light industrial system centered on food processing, textiles, and daily chemical products."

"In the next five years, we will build a basic education system, fully implement five-year compulsory education, and have 300 primary schools, 30 middle schools and secondary vocational schools, and 10 universities and higher vocational schools across the country."

There are only so many people in Nanhua. It can be predicted that when the university comes, the international students will lead a few students and teach them step by step. And it is still early. It will be six years before the first batch of Nanhua university students appear. Until then, the main focus is on studying abroad.

"In terms of civil affairs, within five years, the population of Nanhua will reach a base of eight million, and at least 4,000 administrative villages will be set up to increase the ability to control the territory. This is the key point. Chairman Chen Jiangtao will lead the establishment of an immigration office to be responsible for this.

Something." Liu Yiming warned.

"In terms of military, within five years, we will train an army of 100,000 people, a reserve force of 500,000 people, a militia force of 500,000 people, and a navy of 20,000 people. The specific military expansion plan is still under discussion. The initial estimate is to have two capital ships and four subordinate warships.

There are thirty torpedo boats, patrol boats, supply ships, etc.”

"In terms of economy, complete the construction of Nanhua Bank, issue currency, effectively control the financial economy, and fully cooperate with and supervise the construction of other departments." Liu Yiming doesn't know much about the economy, but he knows the role of the central bank, as well as currency.

!

Nanhua currently has a wide variety of currencies, including pounds, Dutch guilders, US dollars, francs, various gold and silver coins, and native gold with impurities, all circulating in the market...

"I have made a plan for a more specific goal and sent it to you. After that, the department will think about how many people and resources are needed and whether it can be achieved, and then make a detailed plan to use on the day of the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China!
Chapter completed!
