Kai Fu Han

Chapter 563

"Five hundred yuan, two shi of food, and one shi of meat will be used as settlement allowance. After joining the army, you will be responsible for food, clothing, and housing. You will also receive [-] yuan plus one shi of food every month, and there will be pensions for death and injury." Liu Xinyuan replied. The meat he mentioned was fish. It is usually dried salted fish.

"The treatment is very generous, enough for these Japanese people to work hard." Liu Xinde said.

The current situation in the Japanese country is that many jobs are just for food and accommodation, with no salary, and people are grabbing them.

Influenced by Confucian culture, Japanese people also believe in many children and many blessings. In addition to multiple factors such as the lack of effective contraceptive measures and the low survival rate of babies, the common people are happy to have children.

Large families that own the means of production become more and more prosperous.

Ordinary people are getting poorer and poorer.

In Hizen Province, five guan of gold is already the price to buy a life.

"We also need to screen, not just everyone. They must be obedient, with sound limbs and a flexible mind." Liu Xinyuan added: "If you can speak Chinese, or have other specialties, you can get more money. You can send the news as soon as possible. Spread out, complete the recruitment early, and let’s head south early.”

"No problem, I promise to spread the news to every corner of Matsuura County within one day, Hizen Province within two days, Saikaido, Sanyodo, Sanyodo and Nankaido within five days."

"Don't go to Shi Jianguo. Xinwei's Twin Cities are also short of manpower." Liu Xinyuan reminded.

"Okay." Liu Xinde looked a little embarrassed when he heard Liu Xinwei's name.

The two came to Japan together and started under the same conditions. He is still limited to Hizen Province, while Liu Xinwei's power has spread to most of the states of Tsuuma, Iki, Sanyo and Sanyo. If he hadn't been in Saikaidō , it is estimated that Liu Xinwei's power has already covered the entire Saikaidō.

Moreover, the construction of Tuemanan Port is much better than that of Hirado Hanzhai Port. In terms of scale alone, Tuemanan Port is three to four times larger than Hanzhai Port.

Liu Xinyuan noticed Liu Xinde's embarrassment and comforted him: "The location of Tsuima Island is so advantageous. Ships heading to the mainland, Goryeo and Japan basically stop there for supplies. It is incomparable to Hirado."

Liu Xinde's face looked a little better after hearing this.

But he knew in his heart that Liu Xinwei was indeed harder and more diligent than him. At least he didn't take four Japanese women as concubines.The alliance also recognized Liu Xinwei and introduced her to a marriage.

Liu Xinde, who has also been developing overseas for many years and has never been married (taken a legal wife), the leader did not say to introduce a marriage.

"Next, we will vigorously develop the west coast of Waguo Island and the Ryugu Islands in the south. Hizen Kingdom will serve as a transit point, and Hirado will become the center of Hizen Kingdom. It will become the focus of the development of the Xinghan Alliance. As long as you seize the opportunity, you will definitely catch up. "

"I will work hard." Liu Xinde promised.

I mentally encouraged myself.

"What you just said was to be responsible for the servant army. I agreed."

"Okay!" Liu Xinyuan stood up and hugged Liu Xinde. He was very happy for this cousin: "Let us brothers make a big career in this vast ocean."

"Brothers."

As the Xinghan League develops better and better and the population increases, the people surnamed Liu in Liujiapu become more and more precious.

Every child surnamed Liu is the wealth of the Liu Family Fort, and no one wants to see Liu Xinde continue to be comfortable and self-sufficient.

Liu Xinyuan came here this time because he was entrusted by the elders of Liujiabao to find a way to help Liu Xinde.

Now it seems that Liu Xinde is not someone who cannot be helped.

On June [-]th, the recruitment of the servant army began in full swing.In the square outside the west gate of Hanzhai, as soon as the recruiting flag was set up, many people from the port gathered around.

"Just take a look, you will definitely be busy today." Liu Xinde said sarcastically.

It seems that Hanzhai has a very high status in the minds of the Japanese people in Hirado. It must be that the treatment of the Japanese who work in Hanzhai makes the local people envious.

"How do you usually hire people?" Liu Xinyuan asked.

"After taking care of food and accommodation, they only get one stone of food per month. This salary is not very high, and it is not the most attractive thing for the Japanese. The most important thing is that we treat them as human beings. The food, accommodation and treatment are basically the same as those of the Han people, and the clothes are also the same as those of the Han people. We receive complete packages every quarter, and there are also gifts and bonuses during New Years and holidays. The most important thing is that our salary payment is very stable. If we say that the salary of the previous month is paid before the fifth day of each month, it will never be delayed until the sixth day. If you give out one stone of food, you won't lose a pound." Liu Xinde replied.

It seems that everyone has his own merits. Liu Xinde does have his own set of things in managing foreign races, developing the economy, and governing people's livelihood.

And after meeting Liu Xinde's concubine who served him tea and water yesterday, Liu Xinyuan also knew that these four concubines were not forced to come here, and Liu Xinde treated them quite well.

The officer in charge of recruiting soldiers had just read out the salary package in Chinese and had not yet started to repeat it in Japanese.

"I, I, sign up!" A Japanese man shouted in some stuttering and unfamiliar Chinese. He had already squeezed in front of the registration desk.

The other Japanese people seemed to have woken up from a dream and immediately rushed forward.

"I!!"

"I!!"

"Boom"!
There was a crisp gunshot.

"Line up, and whoever squeezes in again will be disqualified from registration!" Liu Xinde had experience and fired directly into the sky, then shouted loudly in Japanese.

Liu Xinyuan was wondering just now why Liu Xinde brought a short musket over. He thought the security here was not good, but it turned out that it was used at this time.

The noisy scene immediately fell silent with the sound of a gunshot, and the Japanese began to line up in an orderly manner. No one dared to continue pushing.

"How's it going?" Liu Xinde turned around and blinked at Liu Xinyuan.

Liu Xinyuan rolled his eyes slightly. This man is already 25 years old, but he is still so childish.

As the news gradually spread, more and more Japanese people knew that the Xinghan League was recruiting servants at the port, and the treatment was generous. More and more Japanese people from outside Hirado City and outside the city rushed towards the port. Some signed up. Most of them come to watch the fun.

Along with the common people came people from the Matsuura family.

"Well, General Liu. I didn't know you were here yesterday, so I couldn't welcome you from afar. It's really rude." Matsuura Yoshinobu, the head of the Matsuura family, bowed and saluted.

"Master, you're welcome. We were passing by." Liu Xinyuan knew the master's intention and pointed it out directly.

This time when the army came to Japan, they did not inform the Matsuura family. They were all received by Liu Xinde and docked at the Hanzhai port.

Liu Xinyuan didn't know whether Matsuura Yoshinobu really didn't know, but he didn't come over yesterday, which meant that what he wanted was "not knowing."

When Liu Xinyuan said he was passing by, Matsuura Yoshinobu visibly let out a sigh of relief, and the solemn expression on his face relaxed a lot.

"I don't know why the general came to our Hirado this time. Can the Matsuura family do something to help?"
