The influence of the Great Qi on Japan is becoming more and more profound. Does the ruling class of Japan know this?
The answer is yes, of course they knew.
So what is their attitude towards this?
You may not believe it, but these people are not only not disgusted, but quite supportive.
Especially Teruyuki Omura, when he got the agency rights, he was so excited.
Managing the people in your territory? Sorry, I don't have the time.
Before the Da Qi people came, he was too lazy to manage the place. Now that the Da Qi people have come and want the right to manage the local area, he is even more lazy to fight with them.
In Teruyuki Omura's view, the people in the territory are like weeds. You just need to scatter a handful of seeds and there is no need to take care of them. They will grow on their own.
What Teruyuki Omura has to do now is to arrange the trade matters.
Ever since the news got out, many nobles from nearby have come to inquire about the specific details.
When these nobles saw Teruyuki Omura wearing exquisite silk clothes, tasting the fine wine imported from China, and seeing Teruyuki Omura's concubine removing the white putty on her face and the black stuff on her teeth, and dressed like a fairy, the first thought in these people's minds was - I can do it too!
Then they were taken to the dock for a walk to see the elite soldiers and huge ships on the dock. Most of the lords expressed their willingness to cooperate on the spot and hoped that they could also bask in the glory of the Great Qi Dynasty.
There are even a few more radical ones who directly proposed that Wa has been an inseparable part of the Great Qi since ancient times. This can be referenced in historical documents, such as the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the fact that the First Emperor sent Xu Fu to sea.
Of course, there are supporters and opponents. These opposition parties said that this was an act of aggression by Da Qi and they would resist to the end.
There are also some people who want to take advantage of this opportunity to raise prices and ask for more benefits.
Da Qi has only one reaction to these people, and that is to sweep them with a big stick.
"Are you kidding me? They really think we're here to help alleviate poverty. They're so high-class, yet they want to control pricing? Do they really think those Xixia, Liao, and Jin soldiers we brought with us are vegetarians?"
The soldiers of Western Xia, Liao and Jin were certainly not vegetarians. They were a group of tigers and wolves, and they ate meat.
Having had nothing to do in the past few months, these soldiers have already swept through the surrounding mountains and forests.
At present, a piece of land has been specially cleared at the dock for livestock breeding, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences even sent some experts here two days ago.
As for the soldiers of Da Qi, their work was much easier. Apart from guarding the ships, they had to spend the rest of their free time working on the land, besides having sex with women.
The talent for farming seemed to be engraved in the bones and blood of the people in the Central Plains. The idle soldiers of the Da Qi used a few months to cultivate large tracts of farmland here.
Teruyuki Omura is happy to see this happen.
Anyway, those wastelands are just there, and he has no ability to organize people to reclaim them. Now that Da Qi is willing to help, it’s really great.
Now that the land has been reclaimed, it must be cultivated by people, right?
This will solve part of the labor problem and make more people rich.
As long as his people become wealthy, he can collect more taxes and make more money.
The soldiers of Western Xia, Liao and Jin had no objection to this division of labor.
They are not good at farming, so even if Ma Tong is willing to let the two sides rotate, they may not agree.
In their opinion, farming is not as interesting as hunting.
Hunting brings immediate returns, as the prey can be sold for money.
Whether you spend the money or save it and send it back home, it is a good choice.
A month ago, they received a reply from home. Da Qi not only gave all their money to their family, but also took their letters back.
The reply letter was written by someone from Da Qi. The plain language and some idiomatic expressions in the letter made many soldiers burst into tears.
Some families told the soldiers that they planned to use the money sent back by the soldiers to buy more livestock, while others planned to build a new tent.
In short, with this money, the quality of life of the families has indeed been greatly improved, which allows the soldiers who came here to fight to see their own value and the significance of this voyage more intuitively.
And after getting over the initial confusion and loneliness, life in Japan is actually not that difficult.
After all, we are all people who have experienced hard times, and our previous pursuit was just to have something to eat.
Now in Japan, not only can we have food to eat and money to earn, but we can also have friendly exchanges with local women during our rest time every now and then, and both sides can get what they need.
To be honest, in such an environment, the fact that these soldiers were able to send most of the money back home shows that they were still quite simple and honest.
I heard that some time ago some soldiers went to the city to gamble and lost all the money they earned.
For this reason, Ma Tong was furious and arrested those who participated in the gambling.
At this time, no one cared whether they were soldiers of the Great Qi or foreign soldiers. Ma Tong simply hung the man up and whipped him dozens of times, making him scream in pain and almost lose his life.
Then Ma Tong made new rules: soldiers on the ship could go into the city to buy tickets, but they were not allowed to gamble.
When a gambler gets high, he can do anything. This is a very unstable factor.
