More than 280 criminals were taken to the mouth of the "Wenlai" River and resettled...... The wounded among them were also treated by the team doctor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Gnawing Dog asked Wang Defa, the head of the family: "Why do they eat the same meal as us?" ”

Wang Defa, the head of the family, said: "It is actually more expensive to cook two kinds of food here...... This is different from Liuqiu, where there is less suitable labor. ”

Jimi asked Wang Defa, the head of the family: "Why do they wear the same clothes as us?" ”

Wang Defa, the head of the family, said: "From the perspective of sea trade here, the profit of transporting cotton and linen is greater, so linen is the least cost-effective...... They can only wear the same clothes as us. ”

"They seem to hate us......"

The head of Wang Defa's family patted him on the shoulder and said appreciatively: "Good boy, can you feel other people's emotions...... It's okay, they haven't gotten a greater harvest from their labor, and are in no hurry to change them. ”

"If we use a short firearm, they will be more afraid of us...... Why don't you go to another tribe and grab some more labor! ”

The head of Wang Defa's family shook his head and said: "We don't want to do things that don't take advantage of justice, and letting others fear will hurt us sooner or later."

We can solve the problem of labor shortage by purchasing methods...... As long as the problem can be solved by using the stream to find the coin, it is not a problem. ”

It's true.

The country of Bo Ni is no longer a wild land in this time and space, and the people of Bo Ni are not savages...... But the skills of the workforce here are far inferior to those of the Great Song Dynasty.

The people here are too lazy and industrious to even the Japanese, Korean, and East African blacks, white Europeans, and Arabs.

Wang Defa's family master made a lot of choices to find about 100 more suitable laborers...... He simply had to learn from Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, and had to buy slaves.

Due to the almost insatiable demand for labor on the island, they had already raised the price of slaves in the slave market.

Even the small tribal chiefs in East Africa probably knew that killing captives was a foolish act, and that it was better to exchange them for iron or good goods.

Of course, not to mention the earth kings of the Tianzhu region...... The source of slaves became even more widespread.

The head of Wang Defa's family sometimes can't figure out whether they themselves are protecting or hurting people...... But I can't really take care of it right now, because it's so much needed.

Ships going to Liuqiu Island from other parts of the world basically have to stop in the Bo Ni Country to do some business, replenish supplies, and prepare for the last half month of the voyage.

Therefore, the head of Wang Defa's family arranged for people to go to the dock to wait, if there is a slave ship to come here, it must be selected first, you can directly use the flow of currency to settle the account, you can also take the token to go to the island to settle the account, you can also use local products, in short, there are many settlement methods.

In fact, the Boni country cannot be regarded as a country, in fact, it is an alliance of large tribes and several small tribes, and the population is far from enough for the entire region.

However, like the Ryukyu Kingdom, it was able to accept the Liuqiu currency almost completely, and it would smoothly change between the money and the Great Song Dynasty, and it would not lose at all.

Although the culture of the Great Song Dynasty was revered here, in recent years, especially the sudden rise of maritime trade, they have also accepted the influence of Liuqiu Island.

The prince of Boni happily accepted the invitation of Liuqiu Island to advocate national security, he originally wanted to go to the Great Song Dynasty to "study", if he could also go to Liuqiu Island to play, this is a very happy thing.

Zhang Guoan, the owner of Liuqiu Island, built a commercial station suitable for commercial and residential purposes in the Bo Ni country, and from the day it was built, they took the initiative to pay half of the taxes in accordance with the regulations of the Bo Ni country, and at the same time, they also abided by the various requirements and customs here.

The merchants of the Great Song Dynasty had a good reputation in this time and space, and the practice of seeking merchant stations made them even more popular with the local government and people.

The merchant station is organized, has a fixed period and fixed demand, so that the country of Bo Ni has fully developed.

Taking dried coconut as an example, it is easy to get rich by purchasing it all year round, so that hundreds of families here can concentrate on processing it, and they have never worried about selling it.

In the eyes of the king of Bo Ni, Maburi Songcha, his people were far more "industrious" and wealthier than before, and many of them wore socks and shoes.

And the income of his own palace also increased, and the treasury was full of copper coins and stacks of Liuqiu coins and Great Song money.

He said to his son, Anda, the prince of Boni: "Our money comes from the east and from the west, but in the end it will come from the sea...... Think about it, what are we missing the most? ”

Anda, the prince of Boni, said: "We have no shortage of weapons, nor are we short of soldiers; Neither did the people lack bread nor clothing...... Maybe we lack the population? ”

As soon as the Bo Ni Kingdom had a higher income, they first purchased weapons from the island, especially their knives, guns, bows and arrows, and their leather armor...... In this place, no one can wear plate armor and rope armor, it will really heat people to death.

On the contrary, they were not interested in arquebuses, for the simple reason that gunpowder was susceptible to moisture and was far less reliable than bows and arrows.

Although there are only a few hundred armed forces, they all know the surrounding forces...... They are no match for the Bagan state across the sea to the north, but they are more than enough to protect themselves, at least not to be afraid of the Chayakawang state across the sea to the west.

After hearing his words, the king of the Bo Ni Kingdom, Mabuli Songcha, smiled and said, "I thought so before...... Later, the sincere invitation of the owner of Liuqiu Zhang Guoan Island changed me a lot, my son, think about it, what is the most important thing on Liuqiu Island? ”

"Is it sea salt?"

"My son, it's a ship, a huge ship! You should bring more craftsmen, I have inquired, I can't afford to hire their craftsmen, it is better to send someone to learn shipbuilding with them.

Think about what the king of Bagan, Aaron Sidu, did......"

Anda, the prince of Boni, suddenly brightened.

During the reign of King Alongsidu of Bagan, he recruited craftsmen everywhere to build ships and seaports, and soon made Bosheng an important seaport to overseas countries, and the country soon became rich and powerful.

At the same time, of course, he also established a legal code, developed industrial and agricultural production, and unified national weights and measures, all of which directly contributed to the development of commerce and navigation...... If it weren't for him, where would Bagan be so strong?!

Yes, if those mountain-like sea ships on Liuqiu Island can be built and manipulated by themselves, then the Bo Ni Country may be as powerful as the Bagan Country, right?!

Anda, the prince of Boni, bowed his head and said to his father, "The child knows what to do...... We also need to learn other skills from them, and if we don't invite craftsmen, we will train them ourselves! ”

"Yes!" The king of the Bo Ni Kingdom, Mabuli Songcha, said happily, "After you leave, I will recruit people to repair the port again, and the merchants who are begging have said that there will be more sea ships in the future...... Each one of them will bring us wealth, and we don't have to look for it ourselves.

However, this is only what I can do, and you, my future king of the Bo Ni Kingdom, must be prepared to go out in search of wealth, just like those merchants who are begging for money and merchants of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Later, Anda, the prince of Boni, took a team of more than 250 people to take the sea ship of the Liuqiu merchants, and at the warm invitation of the owner of Zhang, went to Liuqiu Island to "study".

Since then, the relationship between the Great Song and the Liuqiu merchants and the locals has become even closer. (To be continued.) )
