Emperor Ming Dynasty

Today, Qin and Qi have been established and are gradually being perfected, while Liao Wang is in progress and is expected to be established by the end of this year.

King Yue and King Wei, one in Hokkaido and one in Khmer, especially the latter, had to go on another expedition.

For Qin, the imperial court was busy from Shaowu 16th to 18th, not only gave up 200 Beijing camps, but also a lot of supplies, estimated to be [-] million yuan.

Although Khmer is small, 80 is always needed.

To support a campaign, money, food, materials, soldiers, local support, etc. must be coordinated.

In such cases, the establishment of an agency is necessary.

How could it be possible for the emperor to arrange it himself? It's very tiring.

Zhu Yixi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately gave orders.

Soon, in the cabinet, there was an institution under the jurisdiction of the Fan Guosi, which was responsible for the development of the fan country, immigration and other matters.

As for the manpower, the cabinet members are the leaders, and the secretaries in the cabinet are the assistants. On the surface, an organization has been set up, but the number of personnel has not been increased.

His Linzi city is big enough, but now it is short of manpower.

For the lower class, the country, or even another county, is not its own kind.

King Yue shook his head.

In this regard, the two brothers returned with a full load.

King Qi is even more ambitious. This year, he will recruit 1 people to go to Qi to cultivate.

The elders of the pavilion are in charge of the eight ministries, but they only have the decision-making power, and the specific management power is in the hands of the minister and the minister.

Zuo Changshi witnessed the prosperity of Yongzong Island from the side, and said seriously: "After signing the treaty, only merchants are allowed to do business in Yongzong Island, so as to monopolize trade and obtain a large amount of taxes."

"In the past, it was okay, because the common people in North Korea had no surnames, but now when they come to Daming, they all take surnames, and some even take the examination of scholars..."

King Qi looked up at Yan Chongxin, can the court pay a million yuan?

"However, for our country, North Korea is cheap, and it is more cost-effective to buy grain, cloth, iron, etc. from North Korea."

"Although the Fan Guosi was newly established, the Ministry of Household Affairs and internal funds immediately allocated 200 million yuan."

Take the patrol camp as an example, with a scale of 2 people, the salary alone costs 3 yuan per month, plus food, clothing, etc. is [-] yuan.

King Qi and King Liao drove side by side, and asked to see Yan Chongxin immediately.

"You mean to use the method of recruiting soldiers?" King Qi frowned.

Everyone is moaning.

For the Ming court, you can write Chinese characters, speak Chinese, pay taxes and serve corvee, which is much better than the unruly people in the mountains.

"Our Daming is rich, the tax is low, and we can still take the imperial examination. Over the years, many people have come here one after another, and the Yamen also accepts them, and they are directly registered in the Yellow Book."

But for the rulers, as long as they are obedient and used for me, Korean is just another dialect.

"That's why the most expensive thing is money."

King Yue suddenly asked.

After these words, King Qi fell silent.

King Liao returned to the mansion and talked about it with the long history of the mansion.

Han people, North Korea, Japan, these people can all become his citizens.

Of course, since what was mentioned earlier was appropriation of internal funds, the emperor still wanted to save face, so he shared half of the budget and did not let the court pay all of it.

The king of Liao was not far behind, and followed in three steps and two steps.

He gave him a reassurance: "Although the governor of the vassal state does not have much money at present, but His Majesty said that in the future, the vassal king will be in the country, regardless of whether he is a concubine, each person will have 100 million yuan."

"The army is the most important thing. I think that tens of thousands of people should be recruited and equipped with armor and weapons. The most important thing is to suppress the Nabukhara Khanate."

But I am surprised that the two kings have appeared today.

Yan Chongxin waved his sleeves, glanced at the crowd full of expectations, and said casually: "Thank you today, everyone, please go back!"

Faced with the increase in power, the cabinet has no objection.

King Qi cupped his hands, ignored the crowd who were begging to see him, and walked straight into the mansion.

Some sensitive people immediately turned around and went back to investigate, wanting to seek opportunities.

"Japan?" King Yue was puzzled.

"There are so many poor people, every family wears a pair of trousers, so why not organize them to go to Qi?"

As the center of the Ming Dynasty, Beijing naturally attracted talents from all over the country, and it was difficult for the down-and-out scholars.

There are thousands of people living in a place only half the size of Long Island, which can be described as extremely dense.

Someone took care of this matter, and the princes were overjoyed.

The island is at the mouth of the Han River and is a treaty port for North Korea.

"Immigrants can't be negligent." King Liao raised his eyes, and his voice was crisp:

Regarding this, Yan Chongxin smiled wryly.

Good guy, this is tantamount to raising an army.

King Yue and King Wei also left in a hurry and got a satisfactory answer.

How much does the military cost?

"We are like the princes in the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The common people under them were not of one mind. The princes relied on the nobles and people under them to establish a princely state."

"The cost of exiles is naturally extremely low, but the effect is too slow. If the king wants to recruit immigrants as soon as possible, he will spend money and pay for relocation."

The liveliness of the island is quite different from that of the land. King Yue felt the novelty, but restrained his impulse, and just watched from the boat.

"That's right." Yan Chongxin nodded and said, "It would be even more difficult if the whole family of those common people were to be relocated, but if, as in the Northeast, the recruits are allowed to cultivate first, and after they have land and houses, they will naturally persuade their families to relocate. "

Daming Street is full of bright atmosphere, which shows that a large number of people and businessmen have settled here.

The king of Yue and the king of Wei were able to seal the country, so they would naturally open the door to recruit good ministers and generals.

The king of Liao on the side hesitated to speak.

"50 of them belong to the Qin State, and 100 million belong to the Qi State."

"It's time for the chief assistant."

The main reason is that the route from Heilongjiang General's Mansion to Tianjin has been developed for several years, and it is already a mature route, and the danger is greatly reduced.

"Your Majesty's meaning, the old minister naturally understands." Yan Chongxin said with a light smile: "The new governor of the vassal state is established, and the cabinet is directly in charge. If you have anything to do, you can talk about it. If it can be done, it will naturally be done."

After half a day of docking, the fleet continued to sail, headed northeast, and arrived at Yongzong Island.

For that, Zuo Changshi said: "Now the Liao Kingdom is being developed in the hands of Duke Jin. We are not busy at the moment, but we will be busy in the future."

King Wei's feudal kingdom is in Khmer, so naturally there is no need to rush, as long as Annan is completely taken down by the end of the year, the court will naturally send him troops.

Soon, the fleet arrived in Changdao County, which is a series of small islands with the largest Long Island as the core.

King Qi and King Liao sat on both sides of the main seat, while the majestic chief assistant could only occupy the guest seat at the lower left.

King Yue stretched out his hand and seemed to be able to catch seagulls.

Zhu Yiquan cupped his hands and said: "The two kings are more important, I will retire first."

"As far as I know, although the Ezo land is not affiliated with Japan, Japanese fishermen often go to cultivate it. It seems that some daimyos have built cities. If you go to Japan to declare your sovereignty, you will save a lot of trouble in future development."

However, he still warned his son: "Before going to Ezo, you have to go to Japan first."

The captain is the captain of the Bohai Navy, and he respectfully explained to King Wei:
"Changdao County was newly established in the sixth year of Shaowu. It contains hundreds of large and small islands. The navy stationed here fifty ships of various sizes and 3000 people."

Hearing this, Yan Chongxin didn't panic at all, he was calm and composed, and he was full of excuses: "Your Majesty, the imperial court doesn't have so many exiled criminals!"

At the beginning of April, he came to Tianjin, took dozens of civil servants, five hundred guards, took ten large ships, and headed north along the route.

Otherwise, only relying on annual salary, the vassal state can only be developed in a monkey year.

Yan Chongxin rubbed his temples and sighed: "Actually, the most important thing is money."

In the mansion, contrary to the situation when I saw Zhu Yiquan just now, the subject and the object were reversed.

"You said, what a crime it is to be exiled in Qi!"

"This is because in Qi State, the imperial court did not allocate funds." Yan Chongxin laughed.

"At the same time, establishing a relationship with the king of Japan can also quickly save the time for establishing a country. After all, whether it is manpower or material resources, Japan is close at hand and is the most convenient."

Although a million yuan is not much, it can solve the urgent need.

Yan Shoufu has a high threshold, and the crowds lined up to see him, but for the vassal kings, can it be as high as the palace?

"It's the same with us, the more Chinese people, the better."

"One county in Shandong can form a naval division. Judging from this, Shandong is almost overcrowded!"

King Qi's face was full of disbelief.

After all, no matter how many aborigines there are, they are not as easy as the Han people.

"Your Majesty, Changdao County is special." Dui Zhengzheng said: "Many Korean fishermen also settled here, and over time they mixed together and became our Ming people."

As soon as the Fan Guosi was established, there were immediately waves.

But the ignorant person still stayed where he was, chatting with both mouths.

"Because most of the sailors are recruited in this county, the people here are simple and kind."

Yan Chongxin smiled and understood clearly.

"I heard that Gyeongbokgung Palace, which was destroyed during the Japanese invasion, has been restored in the past two years."

"Oh? Can you tell the difference?"

"Otherwise, it's like the Mongolian Yuan and Manchu Qing. I don't want to be driven back from a small clan against a big clan."

"It's roughly the same." Zuo Changshi stroked his beard and said, "The king of North Korea can only control the vicinity of Seoul, and the rest of the place is controlled by the two classes of nobles. We trade directly with the two classes of nobles on the coast. Not only is it cheaper, but there is no need to pay taxes. .”

Not all talents are suitable for the imperial examination, and not all talents will take the exam.

Yan Chongxin sighed.

After all, whether it is dispatching troops, food, or emigration, there is nothing faster and quicker than elder Ge asking.

The languages ​​spoken in Fujian and Guangdong are probably more difficult to understand than Korean.

King Qi was also not afraid, he said coldly: "Although it is a peaceful and prosperous age, I don't believe that every family is full of food."

A year is 40 million.

He actually complained directly: "If you go to the people, you will find that there are only three kinds of punishments in the world, beating, exile, and beheading. Tens of thousands of people are exiled throughout the country every year. In the past few years, it was the three places in the Northeast. Nian is an important person in Anxi, so he really can't do anything about it."

Zhu Yixi hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

He said to the guest on the lower right: "The two great kings are here, I am really busy."

For a time, the two prefectures were full of talents, and each of them recruited no less than a hundred people.

"If the imperial court alone distributes criminals, it may take 100 years for the second brother's Qi to reach a million people."

After all, it was too much to let all the money out of the house before. The emperor's family affairs are also state affairs, how can the court ignore them?

After all, both the main door and the side door were closed.

Sure enough, as soon as he landed, he felt that his ears were full of official words. If he didn't know it, he would have thought it was Daming!
"North Korea lacks everything, so it relies on Ming Dynasty."

"You mean, 100 million can be worth 200 million?" Yue Wang said pleasantly.

"Over the past few years, the imperial court has only given me a thousand people."

There are so many talents in Liu Bang's Pei County, let alone Beijing.

The Bohai Sea is extremely calm, and seagulls are soaring everywhere. They have become accustomed to white-sailed ships, and even dare to fly a few feet close to them.

Finally, the emperor whispered: "You'd better marry a daughter of the king of Japan, or a younger sister."

The door is open to welcome guests.

He felt novelty.

The ruling and opposition parties have no objection.

One can see the whole picture at a glance, Shandong is really a populous province, and it is also near the sea, so it is the most convenient to recruit people.

In the end, the words were full of resentment.

"Shoufu, you also know the situation of our two brothers. We will be here just after the Fan Guosi was established. Do you understand?"

After ordering the housekeeper to send Shuntian Fu Yin away, Yan Chongxin could only pat his sleeves, then bent forward and greeted him directly at the door.

"I'm short of people." King Qi pressed Liao King with his hand, and was the first to speak, staring at Yan Chongxin with piercing eyes:
"The king of Qin now has more than 100 million people, while my Qi country has only [-] people, and the real Han people are less than [-]. This also includes more than a thousand civil servants, military generals, and soldiers I recruited."

This string of islands is very important to block the entire Bohai Sea. This is also the main reason why Bohai Sea belongs to China's inland sea.

In this regard, King Yue naturally accepted the teachings of his father.

It is precisely because of the establishment of the Fan Guosi that since the 18th year of Shaowu, it has also been included in the budget and allocated separately.

Of course, for the fleet, the island chain where Changdao County is located is an important supply place for maritime navigation.

Reclamation and recruitment of people will not be effective within two or three years, so at least one million yuan must be prepared.

"Is North Korea abundant in manpower?"

"Walk slowly—" Yan Chongxin said with a smile, "Chengsan, you will send it off yourself."

"My lord, breaking a house is worth a thousand gold!"

However, King Yue was conferred the title of Hokkaido, which belongs to the development of a vassal state, the sooner the better.

"Yeah!" Yue Wang was noncommittal, he said casually: "It seems that there are many people here!"

Unable to bear the loneliness, he asked the emperor to go to Hokkaido for an inspection and then come back.

The king of Liao at the side saw the two going back and forth, so he couldn't help interjecting, "Then what is the way to recruit people?"

"Half a century has passed since the Japanese invasion, but it seems that North Korea has not yet recovered."

Zuo Changshi wondered: "Whether it is taxation or population, it seems to have stagnated."

"Then tomorrow there will be a large number of fleeing households, Yinhu." King Yue's eyes lit up: "Go to a rich businessman from North Korea. I have an important business to contact him."

"Remember, it must be very well-connected."

"My lord, there are only two groups of people in North Korea, Songshang and Wanshang. Among them, Wanshang is more powerful, and North Korea's imports and exports mostly rely on them."
