Chapter 54 Inventory
The proud soldiers are back!
Summoned by Chen Mu, Lin Afeng, who cleared Cebu Island and Panai Island, returned to Macheng together with Qi Zhengyan and others who attacked Panai Island, and most of the soldiers and horses were still stationed on Ban Nai Island, each with his entourage all the way back, leaving Shao Tingda to lead the main flag army to garrison the island.
Before the discussion, it is naturally a reward for meritorious subordinates, and meritorious deeds must naturally be returned to the emperor, but it is one thing for the court to reward him, and it is another thing for Chen Shuai to reward him.
"Lin Feng is the first credit this time, the map is here, Ban Nai Island, bring over your subordinates and dependents in Taiwan, Chen will pardon them with the emperor's edict, and you will continue to serve the imperial court."
Emigration to Luzon is not for fun, and even if the people of the Ming Dynasty starve to death, few of them are willing to leave their homeland, let alone cross the ocean. What's more, the current Ming Dynasty, at least Guangdong is not starving to death, and now Guangdong's hired workers have attracted a large number of poor people from other provinces, where does he have any other strength to immigrate over.
The best opportunity is to take advantage of Lin Feng's meritorious service now, get their family members here, and still live as the people of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, Chen Mu didn't forget to mention one more sentence, and said: "Chief Lin, I know that your family has a big business, counting 5,600 families, don't have more, you can't afford to raise that island if you have more, give you Ban Nai as a commander, and allow 40,000 acres of military land and 10,000 acres of sea fields." ”
"Let your subordinates and their families recuperate on Panai Island, allow you to open a shipbuilding factory, raise horses and fish, mine and make sugar, cut wood and mill rice, and deliver 50% of all kinds of harvests to the Nanyang Yamen in two seasons every year, are you willing?"
Lin Feng was stunned, he had never seen anyone peel the skin so easily as Master Chen, obviously he recruited a lot of slaves who worked for nothing, but he said it like a reward. Faced with the hope of getting on the right track, the mighty pirate leader shook his head like a tired old farmer with his hands pinching his bones.
"Chen Shuai, 40,000 mu of military land, even if you produce 120,000 stone of rice grain a year, hand over 60,000 stone to you, and there are still 60,000 stone left, to feed 5,600 families." Lin Feng looked at Chen Mu with difficulty and said, "I can't feed it!" ”
Chen Mu squinted his eyes and smiled, "I don't understand, this is no farming, sowing and planting, planting and harvesting, and planting rice can be ripe for three seasons a year; So you only need 30,000 acres of military land to grow 120,000 stone of rice grain, and the rest can be planted with sugarcane and other things, which can be used to make sugar; In addition to sugar, you can also mine, fish, build ships, and cut wood, all of which can be exchanged for rice with the locals. ”
"It's more than enough to feed yourself, didn't Chen toss you to Panai Island to survive, the number of remaining troops of the 5,600 families has exceeded 10,000, can't you still make the best use of Panai Island?"
Chen Mu saw Lin Afeng's eyes light up, and hurriedly added: "Since you were given the command of Ban Nai, you have been the fourth-rank military attache of the imperial court, and you need to restrain your subordinates, and you must not do looting unless you are in war, especially not to serve the local people." ”
"You can be hired, but you can't be humiliated."
There are quite a few locals on Panay Island, and if Lin Ah Fung uses his ingenuity, there will be absolutely no problem in this place to feed them.
As for Qi Zhengyan and Long Junxiong's subordinates, because most of them were Japanese people, the rewards were heavy silver money armor, chain mail armor and arquebuses, and the rewards were a lot.
When the reward was over, the cronies were all retired, and only Chen Mu, Lin Afeng, Qi Zhengyan, and Long Junxiong were left in the room.
Only then did they look at the map of Japan on the table, which was too rough, and the total area was small and extremely blurry. There is neither the terrain of mountains nor the location of the castle, it is just an outline.
Needless to say, Qi Zhengyan painted it.
Although he stayed in Japan for the longest time, he did not systematically learn the cartography method, and the cartography method was only taught by Deng Zilong on the way north with Chen Mu's flag army, but at that time Qi Zhengyan had been away from Japan for a long time and had no time to learn.
"This place is Kyushu, who is on it, who can you have a relationship with, who is the weakest in the relationship, and who likes trade the most?"
Qi Zhengyan looked at the map and smiled, Nagasaki is on Kyushu Island, which is where he first landed, and said with a smile: "Kyushu has Otomo, Shimazu, and Ryuzoji Temple, the three largest, and Shimazu is the weakest, and they also like trade the most, they trade the most with Ryukyu and Portugal, and they can also make their own bird guns." ”
Shimadzu is the weakest?
Chen Mu has the impression that Kyushu should be the strongest in Shimazu!
"So, who can help us attack Maori?" Chen Mu's hand moved to the right side of the map, moving to the land where the Nizi family is now Maori, and said, "You can contact the mountain deer again, we will help them lay down the Nizi family's hometown, Iwami Silver Mountain, is there a problem?" ”
Qi Zhengyan thought for a while and said, "If you can beat Maoli, a part of Yinshan should be reasonable. ”
"No, not some, it's all." Chen Mu frowned as a matter of course, and opened his hand and said: "Five years, I want to mine the entire Silver Mountain for five years, and mine it by my manpower, my technology, and completely enclosed for five years, and in these five years, you will continue to sell them some ordnance, silk, cloth and even food." ”
Chen Mu raised his hand and said, "It's not for nothing, you have to pay money." ”
"If so, they'll say yes."
Chen Mu spread out his hands and was satisfied.
Of course, it is impossible to hollow out Iwami Yinshan in five years, and of course it is impossible to get what Chen Mu wants.
But after five years, Iwami Ginzan can change owners.
"Let's talk about Otomo and Shimazu."
"Shimazu is the poor ghost of Satsuma, and he has just unified Satsuma two years ago, and he is a poor mountain and a bad water, and he is dedicated to trading, but there is very little local production; Otomo is much better, and the relationship with the Portuguese is hot, and the Portuguese sell them those discarded weapons, such as the collapse of the country. ”
Qi Zhengyan's summary of Shimazu was a little unexpected for Chen Mu, and then he heard the new word "national collapse" and asked, "What is national collapse?" ”
"The name of the Otomo family is actually that the Portuguese dealers went to Hakata to buy the big Franc machine sold privately from Haojing, which is called the collapse of the country."
Chen Mu scratched his head, looking dazed, "How could they buy the big Buddha machine and the Wei Institute flowed out?" ”
"In the early years, the subordinates who came out didn't know, it looked like a big Buddha machine, yes, the Portuguese Buddha machine was small, I have seen that we have a big Buddha machine, and the collapse of the big friend family is the same as that."
Chen Mu rubbed his hands and showed a difficult look on his face, "It's not easy to get it, Shimazu has a bird, Otomo has a Franco, good things don't want to sell, and bad things have ...... By the way, what about the dragon temple you said, Bird Gun and Franc Machine, does he have it? ”
Qi Zhengyan thought about it, shook his head slowly, and said, "It seems that there is none." ”
Syllable!
Chen Mu clapped his hands and said, "Great, let's go and contact the three of them, Shimazu is poor, we will sell them silk and other things; Sell some arquebuses to Otomo, ask the bishop of Haojing to ask him for a favor, and say that Otomo will help the Nizi family to make a dozen Maori in the future. ”
"Finally, it would be nice to sell the arquebus to the Ryuzoji Temple."
Chen Mu rubbed his hands very excitedly, and said, "The inventory of arquebuses, this can almost be cleaned!" ”
