Zhang Jun couldn't help but be a little stunned after hearing Xia Xun's words: "Don't sell slaves? This..., how should we place the more than 10,000 captives?"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Register a household and become a commoner! Take each household as a unit and break it up. They can go to various places to work or farm."
"Zhang Qianshi, sit down!"
Xia Xun asked Zhang Jun to sit down and explained: "Our fundamental purpose is to stabilize the Ming Dynasty's rule in Liaodong. Around us, Koreans, Jurchens, and Tatars are all trying their best to win over each tribe. If
We turn all the captives into slaves, even if we break them up and distribute them to different places, it is not a good idea.
Wherever there is a slave, there is a master. The relationship between master and slave is irreconcilable. We can live together through communication, integrate people of all ethnic groups, and eventually become a family, but masters and slaves can never become a family. Slave traders
This approach can temporarily boost morale and provide more free labor for the large families in Liaodong, but the seeds of the disaster will be planted and will become a big problem sooner or later, especially since our surroundings are not stable."
Xia Xun rubbed his brows and asked again: "How are the preparations in Hada City?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jun became more excited. He had invested a lot of money in the business led by Xia Xun and ordered his two nephews to do it. Now he is eagerly looking forward to transporting a large number of Liaodong people by sea.
What about the huge benefits that will be gained from selling goods to Jiangnan?
Zhang Jundao: "Magurhun worked very hard. Following the instructions of the ministers, several other major tribes in Kaiyuan also got a share of the pie. Of course, the bulk of it still fell into the hands of Magurhun, but since all the major tribes
The tribes unanimously supported it, and now the collection of all kinds of goods is going smoothly. Many tribes have mobilized their entire tribe, and the men in their prime have gone into the mountains to cut trees, and the women and children have gathered pine nuts, mushrooms, horses, and various fur goods, and they have also gathered in Hada City.
A large amount of wealth has gathered in Hada City, and the interests are at stake. Peyishmul, who lives in 30,000 households, no longer complains. The beacons and passes of the Eight Tigers Road were greatly damaged. He did not ask for any food or salary.
I sent the young men of my clan to rush there and work day and night to rebuild it. I have already seen it and found that the pass is stronger and more majestic than the original one, and there are a large number of soldiers stationed there."
Xia Xun said: "Well, Pei Yizhen did things carefully. Unfortunately, his kidnapped daughter was not rescued this time. I don't know if she died or was sold to someone else by the person who kidnapped her.
"
Zhang Jun did not answer this quarrel. Although it was Shen Yong who refused to send troops in the first place, he was a capital official second only to Shen Yong. When he talked about this matter, he inevitably felt guilty, so he changed the subject and said:
"I have also said hello to all the guards along the way to Jinzhou from now on. We don't need to worry about this. All the guards on the way happily agreed.
In order to facilitate the passage of such a large convoy, some guard stations have begun to pave roads in some difficult areas and build bridges on some rivers. They have also organized their people to start collecting local products in preparation for our caravan to pass by.
Join in when the time comes. Our place is now like a source, and all the tributaries along the way converge, and finally form a mighty river!"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "This is a good metaphor, it's exactly like that!"
Zhang Jundao: "Those guards who are not close to me are a little jealous. People keep asking me to tell you, sir, that I can't let others take advantage of this. Look, sir,
Should we allow their aristocratic families and local celebrities to get some benefits? This way, we can also shut their mouths."
Xia Xun shook his head and said: "No, no, Hada City is just a beginning, a pilot project. Once it succeeds here, it can be implemented throughout Liaodong. One 'river' cannot irrigate the entire Liaodong. I want thousands of rivers to appear in Liaodong."
Such a 'river' will eventually turn into an ocean!"
Zhang Jun smiled from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly: "Well, I'll let them know what the department means and tell them to be calm and sit still. But..."
Zhang Jun rubbed his hands and said with a little worry: "Butang, can these things be sold after they are shipped out? If the backlog is there and cannot be repaid, then it will be bad."
Xia Xun is not worried about sales channels. His transportation and sales network is now so huge. There is Xie Chuanzhong in Beizhili, Pengjia and Ximenjia in Shandong, and Shuangyu Island in eastern Zhejiang. Sales that have been operating for many years have now turned into light.
In the Internet, Fujian and Guangxi have Sun Yifan who is growing stronger with his support. The Sun family has now replaced the Luo family and has risen rapidly to become a major business owner radiating throughout Southeast Asia. Overseas, there is Qianlong's trade network, which Lu Mingzhi has already cleaned up.
They have arrived at the warehouse and are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a large number of specialties from Liaodong that can be quickly transformed into gold and silver treasures to Luzon Island.
Of course, Xia Xun has no worries about sales. The wealth now gathered in Hada City is a mouth-watering piece of fat in the eyes of all the forces in Liaodong. In Xia Xun's view, compared with his huge digestion capacity, this little thing is just a piece of meat.
A drop in the bucket is not enough, and the market is still huge in the future.
Xia Xun said: "In terms of export sales, you don't have to worry. I have also invested a lot of money in it. Haha, am I going to do a loss-making business? Be patient. You have to eat one bite at a time. These first few business trips are just one trip.
Just purchasing all kinds of materials, from picking and producing to transporting and warehousing, involves many links, many races, and many people.
Next, you will find that there are many specific things to do at each step. A child who has just learned to walk will fall if he takes too big steps at once. In this process, we can use these specific things to do
Handle it and cultivate the experience and flexibility of the personnel who handle it. Once they get used to it, the river will become wider and wider."
When Xia Xun said this, his smile faded slightly, and he added: "However, although the military and political affairs of the Liaodong divisions are unified, after all, military affairs are still the main focus, and we cannot abandon the master and take second place. This time we took over the entire Ugu of the Tatars."
Tribe, the Tatars have been beaten hard, and they may not be willing to give up. They should return the favor to us, so we cannot relax in military affairs. If we lose the battle and let the Tatars feel like they are in an uninhabited land in Liaodong, then we will
Everything we talked about has come to nothing. Don’t expect to be able to do business with peace of mind amidst the turmoil and war!”
Zhang Jun said solemnly: "Yes!"
At this time, a guard came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Pei Shit Mu'er, the commander of the 30,000-strong guard capital, wants to see you!"
"Oh? Please come quickly!"
Xia Xun adjusted his attire, and saw Pei Shitemuer walking in hurriedly, holding a letter in his hand. As soon as he saw Xia Xun, he shouted: "Master Bu Tang, Master Bu Tang, there is news about my daughter."
, my Minmin sent a letter back!"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The letter was not in Chinese, and Xia Xun didn't recognize it. Pei Yishi Temuir read it to him word for word. After reading it, he stared at Xia Xun with a pair of bell-like eyes. The letter was from Pei Yishi's eldest daughter, Min Minte.
Written by Moore, the foregoing is a family letter, which briefly explains her current situation. It turns out that after she was kidnapped by the Ugu Tatars, she passed by Meng Timur's tribe, and was used by Meng Timur for ten years.
Two sheep were bought from the Ugu tribe warrior.
After buying it, Mengge Timur knew that she was four months pregnant. The nomads didn't care much about her having a child. Even if it was a big shot like Genghis Khan, his woman was robbed.
She left and was already pregnant when she was snatched back. Genghis Khan didn't take it seriously and treated her as his own child.
Mengge Timur didn't care about this either. Among his many women, none was as handsome as Minmin. In addition, Minmin was well-educated, well-behaved, well-behaved and sensible. After she became his woman, it didn't take long for her to become his wife.
He lost his favorite woman.
But Minmin has never dared to tell her true identity, because the Tatars and Jurchens, Jurchens and Jurchens are always fighting for their living space, and there is too much complicated hatred between them. If Tamerlane knew her true identity
Due to her identity and the inextricable hatred between her and her father, the favor she received could not guarantee her life safety.
It wasn't until Tamerlane discussed with his brothers and revealed his intention to defect to the Ming Dynasty that she dared to take the risk to reveal her true identity and became the matchmaker for them. Pei Yishi received a personal letter from her daughter and knew that she was safe and sound.
Naturally, he couldn't help being happy, and immediately brought Timur's envoy to find Xia Xun.
Zhang Jun beamed with joy and said: "That's great! Bu Tang, we are establishing our authority in one battle! Mengge Timur led his whole clan to submit and report to the emperor. This is another great contribution to the naturalization of Fu Yi! Bu Tang!
Don, we should arrange for someone to pick them up immediately."
Xia Xun was silent and thought for a while, then raised his eyes and said to Pei Yishi: "Where is their envoy?"
Peishtmul said quickly: "I brought him here and he is waiting outside the house!"
Xia Xun said: "Bring him in!"
After a while, several guards with knives escorted a young man wearing a broad robe and a pointed leather hat into the lobby. Xia Xun was startled when he saw his appearance. This man looked very familiar, as if he had seen him before.
The man had already touched his chest and saluted him, and said with a smile: "Master Bu Tang, I am Yalha. I have met you in Kaiyuan City before."
Xia Xun suddenly remembered and exclaimed, "Ah! So it's you!"
Yarha said: "Yes! Although our tribe lives in the Tatar territory, many of the things our tribe needs for daily life need to be bought from the Han family, so our tribe has been traveling to and from Liaodong for a long time to do business.
Our people have always wanted to defect to the Ming Dynasty, but they were controlled by the Tatars and did not dare to act rashly. This time, your army wiped out the powerful Ugu tribe, which is very inspiring. Our leader is determined to defect to the Ming Dynasty.
, I also hope that Lord Bu Tang can take us in and protect us!"
Xia Xun looked at Yalha and said, "Are you Brother Meng's brother?"
Yarha said: "Yes, sir, Brother Meng and I are brothers from the same mother. My name is Fancha."
Xia Xun nodded and smiled: "Since you are his brother, there is indeed no one more qualified to represent him than you, so let's talk!"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Watching Peishit Mu'er and Yarha leave, Zhang Jun immediately said to Xia Xun impatiently: "Butang, it is a great achievement to lead the troops to join the army. Your Majesty's face is shining, and you are also a meritorious deed, Buntang."
Zhuo Zhuo, we should send someone to pick them up right away. Why do we need him to submit a letter of nomination before he is willing to accept them? The nights are long and the dreams are many. If something goes wrong again, the easy-to-get credit will be gone!"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "The Emperor's face already has enough brilliance, and the governor has done enough credit. As long as he has a false reputation and face, can it be used as food or clothing?"
Xia Xun picked up the tea, plucked the tea leaves leisurely, and said: "No one will cherish something that is too easy to obtain. As soon as we said we wanted to surrender, we greeted each other with houses, land, cows and plows. They
You will feel that you have something rare to live in. When you look back, not only will you not be grateful for your help, but you will act like a scoundrel, threatening to surrender and asking for more things.
There are also some shameless people who regard surrender as a way to make money. Today they will surrender to Korea, tomorrow they will surrender to the Tatars, and the day after tomorrow they will surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
Meng Ge Timur said, I don’t believe it because my Ming army defeated the Ugu tribe in one battle, so what kind of celestial dynasty do I admire, what do I admire about the Ming Dynasty, what kind of governor do I fear, it’s all fucking nonsense!”
Xia Xun took a sip of tea, winked at Zhang Jun, and said with a smile: "Don't look at me, I don't know why they suddenly want to join, but I know that there must be a last resort reason; I also know that if we
After accepting them in this way and sending out a large army to take them back in a grand manner, we, who obviously joined us like lost dogs with no way out, regard ourselves as great heroes.
Those who submit to the clan will be received by the emperor in person. When the time comes, they will have to act coquettishly and do favors, and if they want this or that. This is not enough. According to our practice in the Ming Dynasty, we have to choose a place in Liaodong to settle them.
He is so complacent and considers himself a hero. Not only can you not control him, but he will also cause you some troubles from time to time. Do you think you have a headache? You must put down this arrogance as soon as possible and make him understand that he is here to beg us.
Yes, when you get to our land, you have to obey our control. Don't make a fuss about your nose and face, and you are betraying him by being the guest."
Seeing a great contribution coming to his door, but Xia Xun didn't accept it right away, Zhang Jun felt really uneasy. He rubbed his hands and said with a wry smile: "I understand what the minister said, but...,
I’m afraid that they won’t accept the conditions proposed by the ministry and will no longer submit to them…”
Xia Xun sighed and said: "His wife wrote a handwritten letter, and the envoy sent is his brother. With such a battle, do you think he is anxious or we are anxious? We can force them to tell the truth.
Bargaining, right? You said you have such a temperament that if I let you do business, I would definitely lose a lot of money! Are you from Shandong?"
"Ang! How did Master Budo know?"
"Let me tell you, I'm really worried to death..."
"..."
p: I just took a look, and the seven-day average is 8,200. I am still in such a hurry even though I have a cold and rhinitis. Facts have proved that I am indeed from Shandong. I am impatient. If you have a vote, please vote for it. I am really in a hurry.
