After that, Liu Mu said: "The women of the Yamato country, they do not belong to the Tang Dynasty, and there are some people who are almost thirty years old and have no children, so they want to find another woman." It's called a concubine. These people used to be concubines. We in Datang still have a contract for concubines. ”

Yanagi immediately called for several versions of the contract.

Among them, there are nobles, there are also minor officials, and there are old people who have no children, etc.

Of course, these are all specially modified by Willow.

"Ah, it's ten thousand dollars to have a son! This, I don't know what I can get for this 10,000 yuan in Datang Shangguo? ”

The Satsuma patriarch knew about money, but he hadn't seen much real money, he had gold nuggets, silver cakes, and it was all barter here.

"In terms of rice, you can still buy 100 stone of rice in a good year."

"So much, just give birth to a son?"

Yanagi nodded.

"I want to discuss this with you, do you need 10,000 people over there? 50,000 people can't do it. Also, is it okay to add more women, let's also discuss the matter of taking concubines, whether we can give birth to a son to stay, and give birth to a daughter to bring back. ”

"Bring it back?" Liu Mu pretended to be stupid, and then deliberately seduced the Satsuma patriarch: "Do you still want people to go for a few years, and then come back and find another one to continue to be a concubine and have a son?" ”

The Satsuma patriarch was originally thinking about this, and when Liu Mu asked him rhetorically, he patted his head: "Yes, yes." Those people in your country who are not qualified but have money are not just trying to have a son. It doesn't matter what a concubine is, it doesn't matter. The daughter is also not important, not important. ”

"This ......." Liu Mu pretended to be very embarrassed: "According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, this concubine must start from the beginning, and if she abandons her, she will be punished." ”

"Didn't you tell the little general just now that the woman on our side is not from the Tang Dynasty, so there is no need to abide by the rules in this regard. It's better to do this, the Tang Dynasty can't make a contract, let's make a three-year, or five-year contract. ”

Moral!

Liu Muxin said that whether it is Yamato Province or this Hayato, you must not know how to write the word "festival".

The Satsuma patriarch spent half an hour convincing Yanagi.

Finally, Yanagi nodded in agreement.

"Well, I promise you this. But you also have to promise me one thing. ”

"Your Excellency, tell me."

"The men on your side are going to fight for me, don't be too cruel to you if you die in battle. In addition, there is a reward for cutting down the enemy, and there is also a reward for meritorious service. Don't be too hard. ”

"I ......." The Satsuma patriarch gritted his teeth: "Then I will only deduct, deduct, deduct forty." ”

When he said this, the Satsuma patriarch felt as if he had been cut off.

Liu Mu patted him on the shoulder a few times: "That's right, there's a reason why you deduct less, if they really make a big contribution." I promise you a great benefit. ”

"Your Excellency, tell me."

"Let's start with a little thing, I don't need the garbage they prepared, I'm going to provide them with weapons. Speaking of big things, if they really make great contributions, I will give you a chance to bow down to my Tang Emperor, and it is possible to ask for a surname for you and give you the surname Li. Li is my royal surname in the Tang Dynasty, even if he is only a servant of the royal family, he is a few levels higher than ordinary nobles. ”

Satsuma Patriarch felt like his whole body was about to float.

Why is Yamato known as the lord of Wajima, that is, when Yamato was in the Central Plains Han Dynasty, there was a golden seal of the U King given by the Han Emperor.

If you have one of your own, then the Yamatai Yamato Kingdom may not have its own noble family.

Thinking that the Yamato Kingdom once sent people to recruit them, but they were given the status of low-ranking nobles, this made the Satsuma patriarch murderous.

Finally negotiated, and Yanagi personally sent the Satsuma patriarch outside the camp.

The Satsuma Patriarch also gave it to Yanagiki's guards.

"Come on, take ten sets of field army equipment, and let the warriors of the Hayato tribes know about my Datang soldier equipment in advance."

At this time, the quartermaster finally understood why Liu Mu specially arranged to bring dozens of sets of old ordnance, which were basically garbage compared to what the Tang Army used now.

Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department, found the willow wood several times, wanting to melt these into iron, and then rebuild them.

Liu Mu kept refusing.

It seems that these weapons still have the value of waste utilization, and it seems that this value is quite high.

The Hayato Satsuma patriarch knew that it was impossible for him to ask Yanagi for the Tang Army's equipment, and once he asked for it, it would arouse the vigilance of Yamato and even go to war. But the men on his side were taken away by the Tang people for training and equipment, and they will all be capable warriors in the future, and if they start a war with Yamato again, the result will be very different.

Yanagi didn't care what the Hayato patriarch was thinking, he just wanted what he could think of.

In the simplest terms, it's population.

There is no contradiction between population and land in the Tang Dynasty at present, the population of the former Sui Dynasty was at its highest, there were nearly 50 million people, and the cultivated land in the Central Plains supported these nearly 50 million people. If Datang wants to restore such a population, unless it has a real prosperous era, then it will take at least three generations, that is, about eighty to one hundred years.

Unless......

Liu Mu didn't think about it anymore, he could pass the customs by the Ministry of Rites.

That night, after Liu Mu had a deep conversation with his eldest grandson Wuji and Pei Shiqing, Liu Mu took a boat to Yangzhou the next morning.

If Dugu Lan hadn't left, she had just arrived on Wadao and planned to enjoy it for a few more days. After the eldest grandson Wuji left Kagoshima, she would take a boat to Jiangnan.

However, Dugu Lanruo asked Xiao Ling'er and Xie Xing'er to accompany Liu Mu to leave first.

A few days later, Liu Mu moved into the Xiao family's mansion in Jiangnan.

Unlike Su Iling's return to her hometown, Xiao Linger went home in a very low-key manner, and only invited the handkerchiefs she had made in Jiangnan to meet, and the rest of the idle people couldn't wait.

Li Shentong arrived, and so did Li Xiaogong.

"Liu Juma, there will be more than a dozen assassins in Jiangnan, Fu Yin, and a few county magistrates from Shangxian will come." As soon as Li Shentong saw Liu Mu, he said straight to the point.

"You're not afraid that I'm here to find trouble."

"Don't be afraid of trouble, when you are not in Chang'an, the general secretary announced two things." After Li Shentong finished thinking about it, he was very puzzled: "Shouldn't it be three?" ”

"Oh, it looks interesting. The two things announced are the bidding for the open workshop of the wool textile workshop of the Liaodong Transshipment Division, and the other thing is that the Quanzhou Bosi Division has officially entered the preparatory period, and some work will be started first. So what's not being announced? Li Shentong looked at Liu Mu with a smile.

"Bashu Transit Envoy!" Liu Mu didn't hide it from Li Shentong.

Li Shentong thought for a while and said: "I guess this is the meaning of the sage, first press the Bashu side, after all, Bashu is not very stable to the south, let the place we control see the benefits, the rest of the clans have to have an attitude to come out, but this time Duan Lun and Yang Shidao are desperate." ”
