Chapter 1286: A Million Fusang Women

In the port area of the second industrial zone, Song Marukzi was joined by more than a dozen staff members of the Dayang Textile Company, along with several officials of the marriage committee, who were making the handover at this time.

After the simple handover, Song Maruzi and they began to count the number of people, and at this time, Song Maruzi's advantage was reflected, because among these Fusang female workers, except for a very few people who could speak Chinese, everyone else could not speak.

At this time, Song Maruki asked the past one by one and registered them one by one, after all, although their Dayang Company had the registration information given by the Marriage Committee, they still needed to clean up and ask again.

When Song Maruki and the others were inquiring about registration one by one, several marriage committees on the side were talking and laughing on the side.

Looking at the expressions of these officials of the marriage committee, it seems that they are in a very good mood!

Since the marriage committee organized the first batch of Fusang women to come to Tang, there were no obvious flaws in the whole process, and their bold attempts were also praised by Xia Wuyan, who commented that their work was excellent and effective.

This made the officials of the marriage committee happy, and the evaluation of the boss made them see the hope of being promoted and making a fortune!

All of them are working hard and being promoted after winning political achievements!

Xia Wuyan's evaluation of them is not a lie, but he really thinks that they have done a good job.

The Marriage Committee had organized two blind dates in Osumi County before, plus the first time they organized Fuso women to come to Tang, and they had already poached more than 3,500 Fuso women of childbearing age to Datang at that time, and there were no mistakes in the middle.

Therefore, they struck hot iron and recruited and transported two batches of Fusang women to Tang in a row.

Two blind dates have been held in Osumi Prefecture, and several groups of Fuso women have been organized before and now to come to Tang, and they have organized a total of nearly 8,000 Fuso women.

Although the number of these Fusang women is only more than 8,000 people, it seems that it is not much, but it is not a few months before and after, if they continue to do this, they can pull tens of thousands of Fusang women down to the Tang Dynasty in a year.

This entry and exit represents a decrease of tens of thousands of young school-age women on the Fuso Islands.

How many people are there in the Fuso Islands?

The Fuso Islands have been fighting for many years, and in recent years, because of the intervention of the Tang Dynasty, they have been fighting every day, a small battle a day, and a big battle in three days is normal, not to mention the direct many casualties caused by the war, and more importantly, the frequent wars have led to a large regression in agricultural production, and a large amount of cultivated land has been abandoned, and this situation is very uncommon in the Fusang Islands with many people and little land.

The combination of factors such as the drastic reduction in agricultural production and the unstable situation has been causing the population of the Fuso Islands to continue to decline, and the decline is very large.

According to the speculation of the Fusang Affairs Yamen of the Tang Dynasty, the total population of the Fusang Islands is only about 10 million, and this figure should be more than 12 million before the seven years of Xuanping, which was roughly before the Tang Dynasty officially intervened in the Fusang situation on a large scale.

Of course, this figure is only a speculation of the Fusang Affairs Yamen, as for the detailed data, let alone the Tang people, even the Fusang people themselves don't know.

According to the Fuso Affairs Yamen's own calculations, the total population of Fuso today is 10 million, and the female population is between 4 million and 6 million.

Well, during the war years, life expectancy was relatively short, so the proportion of young people was higher, and the proportion of young women was also higher.

However, according to the estimate of the Fusang Affairs Yamen, they do not need, and in fact it is impossible to transport more than two million Fusang women of childbearing age to Datang, which is unlikely.

Their ultimate goal is one million!

As long as these millions of women of childbearing age are packed and taken away, it is enough to interrupt the population structure of the Fuso Islands!

Not to mention, the Tang Empire is continuing to interfere in the situation on the Fusang Islands, and while carrying out military layouts, the Tang Empire has quietly increased its arms export reserves to many daimyo on the Fusang Islands.

If the number of arms exports was a hundred before, now it is three hundred!

Because according to the statistics of the Fuso Affairs Yamen, arms exports to Fuso have tripled in just a few months!

At the same time, the export of these ordnance is also very targeted, and the objects of its export are all kinds of people, some of them are better with Datang, and they have always been the daimyo supported by Datang, and some are small daimyo who are bullied by powerful daimyo, of course, even if Datang does not like it, and even some of the daimyo who want to suppress it, it is not as good as Oda Nobunaga, Miyoshi family, etc., which are also the objects of Datang's arms exports.

And the sole purpose of arms exports is to continue to provoke war on the Fuso Islands.

Even for this reason, the empire has taken the initiative to reduce the price of consumable ordnance, for example, the price of ammunition has dropped again and again.

This was all to stimulate the continuation of the war on the Fuso Islands

In this way, not only can they harvest a large amount of wealth, but they will also be able to continue to use the arms trade to strengthen their control over some of the daimyos, and lay the foundation for large-scale landings and direct rule over Fuso in the future.

In addition, frequent wars also have an additional effect, which is a massive reduction in population!

However, these policies were still too far away for the officials of the marriage committee, whose task was to organize this group of Fuso women to come to Shanghai.

Then, according to the wishes of these Fusang women, they were directly arranged to go on a blind date on the spot, and sent to the nearby area to go on a blind date with a large number of single men in the Tang Dynasty.

And some Fuso women, who were unwilling to give their fate to a strange man, arranged for them to work in the factory.

The group of about 500 Fuso women in front of me are people who are unwilling to go on a blind date and are ready to go to work in the factory.

As long as these Fuso female workers are handed over, there will be basically no business for them in the future.

The money owed by these Fuso women workers was also issued in the name of ticket loans, which required these women workers to repay the loans on time, and these loans were also consolidated and then mortgaged to the Royal Bank to directly withdraw the funds.

Therefore, in fact, the marriage committee has actually withdrawn the transportation funds and used them for the organization and transportation of the next batch of Fuso female workers.

Of course, in order to ensure the smooth recovery of the money, but also to avoid a lot of trouble, the Royal Bank will not manage too much trouble, it only needs to ensure that the marriage committee repays the loan on time, and the marriage committee needs these Fuso women to repay the loan on time!

Therefore, jobs are arranged for these women Fuso workers so that they can have an income to repay their loans.

Of course, if these Fuso women are not satisfied with the work arranged by the marriage committee, they can also look for jobs on their own, and the marriage committee will not interfere!

After all, the laws of the Tang Dynasty protected the personal freedom of the people of the Tang Dynasty, and it was a crime to forcibly interfere and prevent people from leaving.

As long as she is willing, and can find a job smoothly and repay the loan on time, these Fuso female workers will go to work there if they like to work, and no one will stop her when she goes to work in those small green buildings.

As for whether these Fusang women will come to Datang and leave directly, and then not repay the loan, there is no need to worry.

One is the problem of language barriers, which came to Shanghai, and a Fusang woman who can't even speak Chinese runs out to live alone, which is actually very difficult.

In addition, if they run away secretly, then they will not be able to get back their household registration certificates, because when they took out loans, they had already directly mortgaged their household registration certificates, this kind of ferry ticket loans, because there is no other collateral, and at the same time, it is impossible for the marriage committee to force them to work to repay the loan and the like, because it is illegal.

Therefore, the marriage committee has adopted a temporary measure to use the certificate of household registration as collateral.

Why is the user registration certificate as collateral, it is because the household registration certificate is very important in the Tang Empire.

The household registration management of the Tang Empire is more strict than that of the pre-Ming Dynasty, and basically everything in the Tang Dynasty requires a household registration certificate, such as going out to take a carriage or a boat, staying in a guest house, and finding a job.

Even walking on the street, the patrol will conduct an interrogation

Especially in Shanghai, a large place, for the sake of public security, the Shanghai Patrol Police Bureau is very strict in the management of household registration, and checkpoints are set up on the main traffic arteries in and out of the city to check the household registration certificates one by one.

Even on the street, there will be patrol officers who will check the household registration certificate at any time.

Without a household registration certificate, it is difficult to move an inch in the country of the Tang Empire.

In addition, the issuance and repayment of these loans are not directly managed by the Marriage Commission, but are entrusted to the Royal Bank, which opens special accounts for them.

And this account is kept forever!

If you don't repay the loan, don't expect to go to the Royal Bank for other business in the future.

In the Tang Dynasty, the Royal Bank was very special, its business spread all over the country, and the savings business was popular throughout the country, coupled with the strict tax requirements of the Tang Empire, which strictly required all enterprises, even small-scale enterprises, to pay employee salaries when they must take accounts from the bank to prevent tax evasion.

Therefore, I dare not say 100%, but as long as you want to work in a regular company, factory, or store, you must open an account with the Royal Bank.

Even many ordinary farmers will open an account in the Royal Bank, because when paying agricultural taxes, they can directly transfer money to the bank, which is very convenient.

The multiple restrictions add up, in fact, there is no need to worry about these Fuso female workers secretly running away by themselves, of course, this kind of thing will definitely happen, but as long as a certain proportion is maintained.

After all, these ferry ticket loans also have interest, and the extra interest is enough for the marriage committee to bear the loss of some bad debts.

Not to mention, recovering the ticket money is just a helpless measure, if you can, free shipping is possible, but unfortunately the cost is too great.

If there is a demand in the future, the Tang Dynasty may organize a large-scale fleet of ships for free transportation.

Song Maruzi took a dozen people, and he was busy all day before he could simply register, and then took these people to the factory.
