Emperor Liu Hong
170 The slave problem
"Uncle Huang, what happened to the immigrant, and you still have to report it to the court?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. I'm just trying to make excuses for that official." But he couldn't say this clearly, and he had to find an excuse to evade it.But this can't help him, he just opened his mouth about various matters about immigration.
"Your Majesty, the overall immigration situation is gratifying. After our efforts over the past year, the number of immigrants from the interstate has exceeded 50, and the total number of immigrants from Taiwan Island and Ryukyu has also exceeded 30. We estimate that In another year, the number of immigrants from Jiaozhou will reach one million, and the number of immigrants from Taiwan and Ryukyu will exceed 50. In five years, there will be 300 million immigrants from Jiaozhou, and 200 million from Taiwan and Ryukyu. At that time, our immigration policy will be able to initially see the effect."
"Ah, isn't that great, what's the problem?"
"Your Majesty, our large-scale immigration has destroyed the normal life of the local aborigines. According to the reports from the officials we sent, those aborigines make trouble for us from time to time. Especially the Wuhu barbarians in Jiaozhou have already fought with our immigrants. There have been conflicts many times. But they can be regarded as our vassals. Whether they have openly rebelled or not, the local officials dare not act rashly, so let His Majesty help you make up your mind."
"What idea do you have, just catch them all! Uncle Emperor, didn't you keep nagging all day long, saying that there are not enough slaves? There are so many good slaves, why are you hesitating?"
"Your Majesty, they are our vassals no matter what. If they didn't openly rebel, we sent troops to wipe them out. What would other foreign nations think? If they feel unsafe, they will all unite, which will be a big trouble for us."
"Ah, that's a problem!"
There is no objection to arresting slaves now, mainly because the consequences of arresting slaves are too serious.There are too many foreign nationalities inside and outside the big man.If it is true that the big man wiped out the Fanbang for no reason, those foreign races of the Fanbang unite to protect themselves, it is really enough for the big man to drink a pot.
"Don't we still have mercenaries? Let them catch them! They are not the army of our imperial court. No matter what they do, we can evade it!"
"Your Majesty, your idea is good. But once we release this mission, the mercenaries will not necessarily sell the slaves to the court if they catch them. They will definitely sell them to the public. It makes it difficult for us to manage. And if there are too many slaves, if they are not controlled by the court, it will be a hidden danger to society."
"Well, Uncle Huang's concern is very necessary. But we have to face this problem sooner or later. We can't keep slaves in the hands of the court forever. Therefore, we must solve these problems in advance."
Originally, Liu Hong made a decision.Next is Liu Shu and the others to go back and study the countermeasures, and then report it in the newspaper and get Liu Hong to approve it.But Liu Hong didn't want to leave the court now, and then go back to face the Queen Mother's bombing, so he said directly: "Anyway, there is nothing to do today, let's discuss this issue."
As soon as Liu Hong said this, everyone was dumbfounded.Here, the only one who has nothing to do is Liu Hong, and the others are all very busy.Especially Liu Shu, now that Liu Hong has thrown all the government affairs to the Government Affairs Council, he is so busy that he doesn't even have time to sleep, and according to Liu Hong, it's nothing to worry about.
But who made Liu Hong the emperor? Whatever he wants to do, other people have to accompany him.
"Your Majesty, if we want to solve the problem of slave management, we must first find a way to solve the problem of slave identification. Although the slaves we use are all foreigners, most of the slaves are no different from our clansmen in appearance. Once they escape Now, if we want to catch him again, it will take a lot of effort. If there is a way to let people know that he is a slave at a glance, this problem will be easily solved. "
Before Liu Hong could speak, Xu Xun said, "Master Prime Minister, this problem is very easy to solve, just tattoo the faces of those slaves. In this way, it is clear at a glance whether they are slaves or not."
"As expected of a bad guy, his ideas are so insidious." However, Liu Hong had to admit that this was a good solution.
Although Qiao Xuan was working for the Empress Dowager just now, he really offended the Emperor. Now he was in a hurry to "make meritorious atonement", so he said, "My lord, it is no problem for male slaves to use this method, but what about female slaves? There are many female slaves , is going to be sold to a brothel for people to enjoy, it is not good to tattoo on the face."
"My god, this question is too sharp. To be able to ask such a sharp question, it seems that the old guy Qiao Xuan has often been in brothels."
Just when Liu Hong was admiring Qiao Xuan and his old heart was not coming, Xu Xun said again, "Master Qiao said that this point is a little thoughtless for me. But this problem is easy to solve. The tattoo for the female slave Just change the place. For example, the back of the neck and the waist are easy to check, and if there are more hidden places, there will be no problem."
"Okay, this problem will be solved in this way, if there are any problems, please bring them up quickly."
It wasn't a big deal at all, so Liu Hong made the decision immediately.Especially for Liu Hong, later generations have successful experience in this regard.In the Song Dynasty, the fear of soldiers running away was solved by tattooing on the face.Now use it to manage slaves, it must be easy to use.
"Other problems are not so big. The key is to prevent slave rebellion." Liu Wei went on to say: "If the slaves are kept in the hands of the court and watched by a large army, they will not be able to play with their birth. But once they are scattered among the people At home, they will have the opportunity to cause unrest in series, and we have to guard against this."
After hearing Liu Shu's words, everyone kept nodding.
Liu Biao is the Secretary of the Ministry of Security, so he asked this question first, "Although this problem is not easy to solve, I think that in addition to strengthening the management and strict monitoring of slaves, it is also very important to use slaves in different places. The slaves in the south , we move them to the north. As for the slaves in the north, we move them to the south. Although some of them will definitely die because of acclimatization, they will be more honest if they are unfamiliar with the place. "
"Well, it is necessary to use it in a different place. The imperial court should prevent it in advance. The mercenaries in the province were afraid of losing slaves, so they dealt with the slaves directly in the local area." Then Liu Hong said: "Prevent slave rebellion, give them a hope It's also important."
Looking at the puzzled ministers, Liu Hong continued: "The current slaves are for life. Not only can he be a slave for a lifetime, but his children are still slaves. They can't see hope, so of course they will rebel. But we give him a Hope, they hope that through their own efforts, they can get rid of slavery for themselves and their families, and they will not rebel."
"Yes, what His Majesty said is true. But how can we give them hope?"
"Is it very simple? As long as we make regulations and they work honestly, after many years, we will allow them, or one of their descendants, to become a big man and get rid of their status as slaves. In this way, many thoughts should be dispelled." The hearts of rebellious slaves. Of course, if you want to become a big man, you must learn Chinese and Chinese characters. And in order for slaves to work well, the recommendation of the master is also an important indicator.”
