Time passed bit by bit, and the 30 days soon came to an end. As the first whale was caught ashore, more whales soon appeared.
In this era, it was impossible to imagine how many whale schools there were in the North Strait and the North Korea Strait. In this era, the number of whales was almost overwhelming. The existence of humans was nothing compared to them. Such a huge number was enough to satisfy the appetite of millions of people, let alone tens of thousands.
Li Chengdao's current population had yet to exceed 100,000. Ignoring other things, just this one was enough to satisfy him.
This was proven by the fact that after the whales were brought back by the big ships, everyone in the camp fell into a frenzy. The huge whale meat became the best food
. The taste of the whale was completely different from that of the sea fish. Even if it was separated from the main food, it would not feel anything different. Instead, it would only be better for the human body. With high protein, the heavenly body was the main food.
It was easy to imagine what the Japanese of the later generations had become when they were originally small and thin.
For the Chinese, this was undoubtedly another kind of life and another kind of change.
Of course, Li Chengdao didn't just use these whales to eat. As someone who had transmigrated in the future, he knew very well that these whales, which were called Kun Peng in this era, had other values that were most important.
It seemed that not only could it be used to refine industrial oil, but it could also be used to make candles and consumables. Although these seemed to be of little use, they were the basic things that promoted the progress of civilization.
As a transmigrator, Li Chengdao could almost think of anything. He would think about it first. As for its use, it would be considered later. For him, with a thousand years of experience and an incredible cheat, there was almost nothing he needed to worry about. In this way, everything seemed especially simple.
Of course, while he was in action, the base was gradually taking shape. In just a month, the entire four northern islands and even several surrounding islands were completely under his control. Buildings began to stand on them, and the number of people continued to increase.
However, as time passed, the number of people did not increase as quickly. Originally, the number of people had already exceeded 80,000, or even close to 90,000. However, after almost a month, it still did not break through 100,000.
As for the reason, it was very simple. After all, this era was not the Manchu Dynasty. Li Chengdao was able to gather so many people because of the natural disasters. Moreover, it was under the support of several natural disasters and the coastal area that it had such an effect.
But in the end, the entire administrative system was not rotten. The officials of the various regions were not fools. They might not care much about the disappearance of a few thousand people, but the number of tens of thousands or even close to 100,000 people was not so simple. Even the provincial governor could not sit still, let alone the other officials around him.
If this was not done well, she would lose her head.
As a result, some things were strictly checked. Li Chengdao didn't want to be exposed as soon as possible, so the speed of immigration began to decrease. From the beginning, it could be several thousand in a day, but it might not be able to gather a thousand in the next few days.
But Li Chengdao didn't care much about this. No matter how few mosquitoes there were, they were still meat. As for fighting with the Great Tang and stealing people, Li Chengdao didn't plan to do so at the moment, nor was he in a hurry to do so, so he naturally didn't have many considerations.
It was still the same sentence. Don't be reckless now. Creeping development was the way to go.
He didn't come here to snatch the throne. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to America. Even with the navigation system, it was extremely dangerous to go to America. If he wasn't careful, he would never come back.
But in the end, he still made that choice. At first, he thought that his reason was to avoid Li Er's pursuit. However, as time passed, Li Chengdao gradually realized that his true thoughts might not be this. If he was worried about Li Er, he could not go to Japan, but he could go to Australia. As for the reason why he did not go to Australia before, it seemed extremely ridiculous now.
There were indeed not many people in Australia, but there were many people in Nanyang. At most, he could go to Nanyang to catch monkeys. This was easier than catching Indians in America.
It wasn't that he didn't know about it, but that he instinctively didn't think about Australia.
To him, America was his path. Going to Australia was nothing, but going to America meant that he had opened up a new era, a brand new world, a brand new era that belonged to China. This was his true thought. This was also why he did not blindly expand when he arrived in America, because he wanted the future.
Under such circumstances, he naturally did not have any thoughts of rebelling. It could even be said that he might not even be interested in the position that Li Er had painstakingly obtained. A thousand years of experience had led to a completely different starting point and a completely different attitude towards things. Li Er needed the world, while Li Chengdao needed civilization, a civilization that could shape China for a thousand years.
That was why they had taken action today.
Li Chengdao felt that his thoughts were very natural. After all, as a transmigrator, if he only wanted to become an emperor or something, it would be too low class and too low standard. If he wanted to play, then he would play a bigger game. If he wanted to do it, he had to do it better.
Of course, these thoughts were just thoughts at the moment. He did not have the foundation to put them into reality. Only he knew about these things. Not to mention those subjects, even the closest auxiliary ministers and maids did not know. Of course, there was no need to know because time was enough to prove everything. Development was enough to crush everything. Absolute loyalty could ensure that no accidents would happen to them. Or rather, any accidents would be within his control.
Under such circumstances, even if success was not within reach, it was still within sight.
However, while Li Chengdao's area was doing well, the Tang Empire did not feel so good, especially in Chang 'an and the Great Ming Palace.
