"I'm tired today." Zhu Mengjiong sat down on the chair and said.

"Husband, there has never been a prince of the Ming Dynasty who has come to Fusang before, so these daimyo are very curious about their husbands, and they are too enthusiastic, and some of the customs of Fusang have not been touched by the husband, so they are naturally very tired. Tomorrow, my husband will not be invited to go like this, and rest at home for a day. Although Princess Yongan Mingzi was also tired, she still stood behind Zhu Mengjiong and kneading his shoulders for him while saying.

"Of course, if this continues, I will die suddenly. When Xie Jin compiled the "History of the Yuan", some copyists were tired to death, and I couldn't die of exhaustion. Zhu Mengjiong said.

"Mingzi, you're also quite tired today, so let's rest for a while, knead your shoulders and let someone come." Zhu Mengjiong said again.

"Yes, husband." Akiko smiled sweetly and asked someone to come in to serve him.

Today is the fifth day of Zhu Mengjiong's arrival in Yokohama, and on the first day, he rested for half a day on the grounds of fatigue from the journey, and from the second day, he began to feast on local daimyo or participate in banquets.

Who knew that I couldn't stop the car from the beginning, and there were so many daimyo in the Kanto region, since I met one of them, the others couldn't help but see them; If that's all there is to it, these daimyo still have their own grudges against each other, and they must not feast together, and the relationship between the local daimyo is complicated, and even the people of Kansai Fuso, who were sent by Yoshimitsu to help him, could not understand how to feast or accept banquets with great caution.

Zhu Mengjiong, who had never experienced such a thing in China, couldn't stand it anymore after two days like this, and decided to rest at home for a day. Anyway, he is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he doesn't dare to do anything with these Fusang soil buns.

Even if the relationship with them is very stiff, so what? They didn't dare to do anything to me. Zhu Mengjiong thought to himself.

Mingzi knew Zhu Mengjiong's mind very well, so he took the initiative to put forward a suggestion to rest at home for a day.

The couple sat in a chair and rested for a while, got up and took a shower, and then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

On the second day, Zhu Mengjiong really declined all the invitations of the daimyo and stayed in the mansion. But he didn't do anything, he called Fang Mingqian over and said to him: "Governor Fang, the things that were transported to Fusang have already been escorted off the ship and put in the warehouse, right?" ”

"Yes, my lord. The warehouse is also guarded. Fang Mingqian said.

"The soldiers' quarters are all settled?" Zhu Mengjiong asked again.

'Nima, I'm not your king's prime minister, the residence of the soldiers of the land division should have been arranged by you yourself, but it was handed over to me. Fang Mingqian complained in his heart.

But he definitely didn't dare to say what was in his heart, so he bowed his head and said, "Lord Wang, everything has been arranged." The houses prepared by the Fuso people were not enough, and the ministers bought some houses from the local people for the soldiers to live in. ”

"This Fusang people are too unreliable, they have obviously instructed them to prepare enough houses for more than 1,000 people, why are the houses not enough. It cost a lot of money to buy these houses. Zhu Mengjiong said.

"It's not a lot of money. From the faces of the locals, it can be seen that they feel that they have taken a big advantage, but the price is not high, much cheaper than the houses in the countryside of Yingtianfu. It seems that the prices here in Fusang are extremely low, and the people are very poor. Your Highness might as well buy more places and houses, and the price will definitely increase a lot in the future. Fang Mingqian replied.

Fang Mingqian himself has already paid to acquire some land near Yokohama, and is waiting for the appreciation. Although I don't know what His Majesty sent people to guard Yokohama for, they think that there must be a deep meaning, and it will inevitably make Yokohama's economy developed. He won't let go of such an opportunity to make money. He wanted to buy more, but after a while, he found that he had no land to buy.

Of course, some of the big local merchants in Kanto also had a premonition that there would be some development here, and they were also quietly buying land. It's just that these big local merchants are too greedy, and they don't know much about what kind of development Yokohama can become, and the price they offer is only 10% higher than the market price, so the people are extremely cautious about selling land, even if it cannot be cultivated, and land that is not a port, so progress is slow.

But soon there were people who disrupted the market, these people were furious, and they wanted to punish people who didn't know the rules, but after investigation, they found that it was someone from Daming, so they didn't dare to blow up. However, this also raised their expectations for the development prospects here: the military generals from the Ming Dynasty all bought land at a 'high price', and it was obvious that the price of these lands would be far less than this in the future, and they immediately increased the price of the land. Soon, they bought out all the land they could buy.

Zhu Mengjiong naturally didn't know that Fang Mingqian had also purchased a lot of land in private, and when he heard this, he said: "What you said makes sense, this king also buys some land, and this matter will be handed over to you." ”

"Yes, lord." Fang Ming bowed down and said. He planned to give half of the land he bought to Zhu Mengjiong, so that he would not be angry when he found out that he had bought a lot of land, and then try to rectify himself. These lands are near Yokohama, and if Zhu Mengjiong makes a fuss about it, he has nothing to do.

Zhu Mengjiong remembered something again and said to him: "What did those merchants who followed all the way from the mainland do here?" ”

"Lord Wang, they will take out the goods they brought and sell them to the local Fuso people." Fang Mingqian said.

"Hey, this, it's against the rules of the Fusang Imperial Court." Zhu Mengjiong sighed.

According to Yoshimitsu's rules, foreign merchants could only go to Nagasaki to do business, and could not do business in other places without permission, and all goods would be confiscated if they were discovered by their people. Yun Xi actually didn't want Fusang to be too open, and this kind of situation of a little communication with the outside world was what he liked the most, so he agreed to Yoshimitsu's terms.

"Lord, it is only a matter of time before the rules of the Fusang court are violated. The Ming Dynasty sent you to be the chief soldier of Yokohama, and it will be of great use to Yokohama in the future, although most of it is a transfer station, but the transfer station also needs a lot of items, such as grain, cloth, silk, tea, etc. ”

"Although these things are also produced locally in Fuso, they are not available in sufficient quantities and at high prices, and they are simply not enough to fully supply Yokohama. So these goods can only be transported from Daming. For the sake of convenience, His Majesty will definitely not take the imperial court's centralized procurement to transport them to Yokohama, but will let the merchants of the Ming Dynasty transport the goods themselves to be purchased by Yokohama Town. ”

"Now that the merchants of the Ming Dynasty have returned, who can guarantee that they will only do business with the town of Yokohama? Do business only with Han Chinese here? They will definitely secretly bring goods that the Fusang people like and do business with the Fusang people in private, but they can't manage it. Fang Mingqian said.
