The Zheng He class slowly left Edo Port, but this time there was only one ship, and it was Song Yingxing's ship.

After Edo received the news that Song Yingxing was coming to recuperate, they sent two Zhenghe-class escorts mainly to show their goodwill. There are no pirates in the Japanese waters, so there is no need for escort. It should be said that except for Nanyang, there are no pirates in the entire sea area around the Ming Dynasty.

.

There used to be some, and there are still many, but the pirates around the mainland are either feeding fish or working as serfs in the Annan Protectorate. And the Japanese pirates who once disturbed the Ming Dynasty coastline are now all working as mining slaves in Sado Jinshan for life.

No more sunshine.

This is the reason why the Ming Dynasty's navy established the Southern Army: there is no need for a navy in the northern seas.

So when you meet a sailor in the Ming Dynasty, if he has a northern accent, he is basically from a treasure ship, mainly transport or merchant ship, while most of the sailors with a southern accent are from the Zheng He class of the battleship series.

Wu Sangui, Zu Dashou's nephew, pointed to several Nanyang-class treasure ships in Edo Port and asked: "Master Song, aren't those treasure ships carrying civilians to Dongshan Prefecture? Why don't they carry Japanese slaves?"

"Good question." Song Yingxing rested in Edo Castle for a few days and finally recovered a lot of energy: "When Dongshan Prefecture began to immigrate, His Majesty signed a decree: Japanese slave males were not allowed to immigrate to Dongshan Prefecture within 10 years."

"Master Song, why is this?"

"I don't know either." Song Yingxing shook his head and replied to Yang Changbai: "Not only Dongshan Prefecture, but also the Annan Protectorate does not allow Japanese slave men to immigrate."

"Basically, except for Minamifuso Island that we occupy, all Japanese slave men on Honshu Island and Shikoku Island, which the Japanese call "Honshu Island" and "Shikoku Island", are not allowed to leave these two islands. Japanese women have only begun to immigrate to the Annan Protectorate in the past few years.

And Dongshan Prefecture, they also existed to comfort the soldiers at the beginning."

Although Song Yingxing's words were very vague, the three young men all understood it. However, when they thought of the ghost-like makeup of the Japanese women, they immediately felt sad for the many soldiers in the Annan Protectorate and Dongshan Prefecture.

In fact, they thought too much. Although ordinary Japanese women were not very good-looking and generally short, the bitter soldiers did not care about these.

Even though the military virtues of the Ming Dynasty were comparable to those of the Tang Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, most of the soldiers belonged to the lower class. For the lower class people before the industrial revolution, having a woman to reproduce was already very satisfying.

Sun Xin also asked: "Then why can Dongyi slaves immigrate? After all, they are also outsiders?"

"After all, Goryeo has been a vassal of our Celestial Dynasty for thousands of years. It was deeply influenced by our Han culture, and it yearned for and feared the Celestial Dynasty in its heart. Their ruling class was all killed by the Japanese. Except for a few people, in fact, the Goryeo people

They accepted the rule of the Ming Dynasty very quickly, and they can basically be regarded as a branch of our Han people."

"Although the Japanese were also influenced by the Celestial Empire, they evolved their own system on the island. They are not a branch of our Han people. They even wanted to invade the Ming Dynasty back then. If they are not my race, they must have different intentions."

"Some people in the court have been speculating that His Majesty did not allow the Japanese to immigrate to punish them because the Japanese puppet emperor's letter urging surrender angered His Majesty."

The three young people seemed to understand.

They understand that the Japanese are not of our race and must have different hearts, and they agree with it. But they do not understand why not allowing the Japanese to immigrate, or even locking them up on the island, is a punishment.

Song Yingxing did not explain, mainly because he was worried that his three students and subordinates were not experienced enough and would have some bad ideas after knowing the truth.

What is the current status of Honshu Island and Shikoku Island in Japan?

These eight words can perfectly explain it.

After the defeat of the Japanese nation, in addition to being cut off from Minami Fuso, which was Kyushu Island among the Japanese, Tokugawa Ieyasu also made the Japanese nation bear huge compensation. This compensation was carefully calculated after the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Ming Dynasty went to the island to investigate for half a year.

, according to His Majesty's wishes, it just squeezes out all the potential of the Japanese country, but does not allow them to riot.

It can be understood as holding the last breath of the Japanese nation.

But the upper class of the Japanese people will not live a hard life by themselves. How can their happiness be stopped because the Japanese people eat soil and trees?

Therefore, the lives of the Japanese people were really miserable. It was so miserable that the Japanese who were squeezed by the Ming Dynasty on Minamifuso Island could actually feel a great sense of happiness and satisfaction when they looked at their former compatriots on Shikoku Island and Honshu Island.

It is understandable why the Japanese women desperately sold themselves into slaves and wanted to leave the Japanese country. Even if they went to the military camp to become soldiers' vents, they did not want to stay in their hometown.

The treatment received by the two sides is largely the same, but not only do they not have enough to eat in their hometown, they may also become food for others.

Some people in the imperial court were actually a little intolerant of the hell on earth in the Japanese territory, and this situation had lasted for more than 20 years. Even punishing the Japanese was enough.

In line with the spirit of heaven, they proposed to simply give the Japanese a way out and become slaves in the Annan Protectorate and Dongshan Prefecture, but the cabinet never approved.

However, rumors say that the person who really disagrees is not the cabinet, but His Majesty.

When our own people talked about this behind closed doors, they would all complain that His Majesty was still angry at that time, and that he was a little angry. But then they thought that people who are not from my race must have different thoughts, so these officials stopped talking.

Song Yingxing is also one of those officials who feels that His Majesty is a bit petty. After all, the Japanese country can still provide tens of millions of laborers. If they are liberated, whether they go to the Annan Protectorate or Dongshan Prefecture, it will be excellent.

He didn't want to talk about this topic because he was too sensitive, and looked at a Nanyang-class treasure ship on the outermost edge of the port. When passing the treasure ship, the sea breeze brought an indescribable aroma.

"What is it? It smells so good?"

Sun Xin and the others also smelled it, and many sailors also stared at the sea with their eyes widened, thinking that some treasure had appeared.

As they approached the treasure ship, they discovered that the aroma was coming from the treasure ship.

"Liu Yifeng, what is this?" The captain put down the wooden bowl in his hand. He was still unsatisfied with the food in it.

"Camellia oleifera, maybe also called Sanhe noodles."

Liu Yifeng took the captain's wooden bowl, poured a spoonful of light yellow powder with lumps and crumbs into it, then poured hot water into it, stirred it evenly with a wooden spoon, and returned the thick, unattractive paste.

The captain.

This is what the captain asked about.

"Although it's mushy, it's quite filling. I heard it was General Qi's military ration back then."

It is indeed said that Sanhe Noodles was a military ration developed by Qi Jiguang, but in fact fried flour is a cooking method that has been used in many places in the Central Plains after the invention of the iron pot in the Song Dynasty. However, later generations of Fujian Sanhe Noodles, Bashu Camellia Noodles and Northeastern

Camellia oleifera has been improved, and its calories and nutrients are much higher.

The Sanhe noodles in Fujian add fried onions and a lot of sugar, while the Camellia oleifera noodles in Bashu and the Camellia oleifera in Northeast China are made in the same way. Instead of onions, they add various nuts, and the taste is salty or sweet.

But whether it’s fried shallots or chopped nuts, the calories in oil tea noodles are very high.

The captain finished another bowl of oil tea, put down the bowl and said to Liu Yifeng: "Let's fry all those broken cans of flour."

"Yes, Captain."

Liu Yifeng suddenly made tea-oil noodles, mainly because he wanted to eat them. Two crew members happened to make a mistake and accidentally knocked over 5 cans of flour.

However, after yesterday's experience of the captain asking him why he made noodles for the civilian husband, Liu Yifeng became more thoughtful and fried a pot first for the captain, navigator and other senior officials on the ship to try it.

As for oil tea, Liu Yifeng, a Bashu native, likes to eat sweet things, but yesterday he used too much sugar to make braised pork and stir-fried sugar color. The captain no longer allowed him to use it, so he could only make salty ones. The onions could only be replaced with garlic and chopped green onion.

, and then chopped peanuts, walnuts and chestnuts were also added.

This oil-tea noodle, which is neither Northeast nor Fujian nor Bashu, still easily conquered the captain and other senior officials.

"But Captain, you can't put this stuff away. Even if you fry five cans, it's still quite a lot."

In fact, it's okay to leave it for 3 or 4 days, but the captain doesn't understand. In his mind, a lot of food must be eaten after it is made. And he also understands that Liu Yifeng, a brat, wants to get some welfare for his fellow civilians.

"We drink first, and the ones who can't drink are yours."

"no problem!"

Liu Yifeng didn't plan to give it to all the people, as the amount wasn't enough, so he only considered the middle and high-level people among the people.

The fish noodle soup last night has captured the hearts of all the people. His position among the people now is much more stable than when he was in Jinzhou Port. However, there are still people in the other four trading houses who are not too convinced by him.

Especially after seeing that Liu Yifeng had almost left the civilian husband and became a member of the ship enjoying privileges.

Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality.

Liu Yifeng just wants to express to those people: He is doing this to help you make profits.

The captain didn't want to give the good thing of camellia noodles to the civilian husband at all, but Liu Yifeng chose the time very well. He deliberately chose to start frying the camellia noodles one hour after breakfast. Then he made fried noodles for breakfast.

Served with fish soup.

Protein, soup, fat, and unfermented dough cakes were all enough to fill the stomach. Although the crew members thought the camellia noodles were delicious, they really couldn't drink more than a few bowls. In the end, Liu Yifeng asked Minfu to take two cans of camellia noodles.

Returned to the civilian cabin.

The aroma of fried oil tea can be smelled by Zheng He-class people passing by. Naturally, the civilians in the cabin have also smelled it. Their breakfast is water and noodles, and even if they are full, everyone will smell it.

Mouth full of saliva.

Most of them knew that it was made by Liu Yifeng. When many people thought about the bowl of noodles yesterday, their clothes immediately wetted their chests with saliva.

"I don't know if we have a share in it, but it was made by the big boss."

Liu Yifeng's mouth habit has spread: "You are thinking about eating shit!"

"Such a fragrant thing is just like yesterday's braised pork. It must only be eaten by the crew."

"Why……"

After thinking about this, everyone suddenly became dejected.

The two leaders of the trading companies looked at each other and started to hide in the corner in a tacit understanding.

Feng Shuo looked at the two people coldly, then turned around and found that Li Hongji was also looking at the two people. They both knew that the two people were plotting to overthrow Liu Yifeng's position as the leader, and rumors had been spreading among the people that Liu Yifeng had betrayed them.
