Chapter 673: The Laborers of the Japanese Kingdom Drop the Chain

After participating in the opening ceremony, Bai Fan left with Li Yuan and others, and completely handed over the venue to Li Chengxun and them to work, after all, the place here is not so spacious, building roads and blowing stones, but also transportation, paving roads, etc., after seeing the perfection of the opening of the mountain, Bai Fan's worries are gone, and he will not stay longer.

However, after they left, when Li Chengxun and others commanded the Japanese laborers to come forward to carry the stones, they could not command these people.

Dugu Xiude, who was in charge of the safety of the mine, asked the translator next to him puzzled, "What are these dwarves talking about?" If you don't get up and work, when do you want to kowtow? ”

The translator had already understood the shouts of the Japanese people, and explained with a bitter face: "General, I'm afraid that something is not good, these people are shouting that the mountain god is angry, and they dare not step forward to approach the mountain." ”

This...... What's going on?

Dugu Xiude was puzzled, not only he, the guard general, was puzzled, but the chief engineer Li Chengxun also felt tricky when he heard the translator's explanation, these people have been here for half a month, Datang is entertained with delicious food and drink, although the language is not understood, but the work is also good, at least no one is lazy and troublesome these days, why did something happen today?

"Tell them that there is meat for lunch today, and let them hurry up to move the stones, isn't it that the mountain god is angry, didn't they see it when we planted the explosives?" Old Li Chun said dissatisfied.

One of the engineers below smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid it's because they can see it, these people are short and timid, and they were frightened when they saw the stones all over the sky, so they wouldn't have taken them to the opening ceremony." ”

Li Chengxun said with a smile: "It's too late to say anything now, so it's better to quickly appease them and go to work." ”

Watching the rows of stewards come forward to appease the laborers, Li Chengxun had a little more hidden worries in his heart, building roads is going to kill people, and bombing mountains can scare these people, if the roads are dead, will they not dare to go up to work?

Don't have that day, if these people are afraid of death and don't do it, who will do it? Is it really like what the master said, looking for Shu people?

"Chief Engineer, no, these people are afraid of death, and they don't dare to anger the mountain god even if they don't eat." An engineer came up to report.

Cui Jun, who was behind Li Chengxun, said angrily: "Okay, since that's the case, then don't let them eat, starve them for a day, they don't do it, our Tang Erlang does it himself, don't believe that these people can endure starvation to death?" ”

Li Chengxun said worriedly: "Elder Cui, will this provoke these people to rebel?" ”

"Hmph, what are you afraid of? Foreign barbarians, can I still supply Datang? If they dare to have different intentions, General Dugu's knife will not recognize people. ”

is still Cui Jun ruthless, the old man has experienced storms and waves, and has suffered in the mine for two years, and he has already cultivated a heart that is harder than a stone.

When Dugu Xiude heard it, he agreed, these people said that they were Japanese laborers, but after all, they were of a different race, and the Tang Dynasty did not serve them as slaves and whips, if it weren't for Li Chengxun's face, this general would have drawn a knife and killed people a long time ago.

Soon, under the leadership of Cui Junsu, thousands of people on the Datang side went down in person, and without a single Japanese laborer, a small cart was busy carrying stones all morning.

And the more than 20,000 people in the Datang State are also peaceful, seeing that the Datang side is no longer urging, they also stop being uneasy, quietly watching the busyness of the Datang side, and the heart is in awe of the Datang Shangguo, even if there is no care of the thousands of troops next to them, these low-level people from the Wa State laborers, they do not dare to rebel.

When it was time to start the meal at noon, something interesting happened, the big steamed buns and big bowls of stewed meat on the Datang side were feasted in groups everywhere at this construction site, and everyone in the Japanese country drooled.

Many Japanese people stood up and lined up to go to the place where the food was delivered, but they were greeted by Dugu Xiude's steel knife, and the people of the Japanese country were puzzled, what were they doing? Isn't it time to line up for dinner according to the usual rules?

"If you don't work, you won't have anything to eat!" Simple and clear, the translation is just such a sentence, and the Japanese people are in chaos in an instant.

Many people had the heart to argue a few words, but seeing the soldiers with long knives out of the sheath all around, and the murderous aura all over their bodies, no one dared to touch this moldy head.

More people regret that they have seen the Tang people busy all morning in vain, and there is no danger for others to do it, and they will definitely be able to do it!

So, as expected, some Japanese people turned around and ran directly to the quarry, some people took the lead, and naturally some people followed, and in a short time, 20,000 laborers began to get busy under the scorching sun.

Cui Junsu smiled slightly after reading it, it is useless to deal with ignorant people, only this is the most effective way to be direct.

Half a year later, the Cui family and the Lu family completed their training, and took 10,000 laborers to enter Shu through the plank road and began to start construction from the other end.

At the same time, the welfare of the Japanese laborers, etc., were also transported to the Japanese through the Datang naval fleet, and when they saw these real food and clothing, the eyes of the ordinary Japanese people were red, and in half a year, half a year, the gang of mud legs who went to the Tang Dynasty made a fortune?

Although the monthly salary of these workers is not much, they have accumulated a lot for half a year, and the key is that these people have the right to purchase in Datang, so they can buy food and clothing to bring to their families.

And what is the most lacking in the Wa Kingdom? It is food and clothing, and if the Japanese country depends on the sea, if they live entirely on fishing, with the fishing technology of that era, I am afraid that half of the people will starve to death.

However, the grain production of the Wa State is too low, basically the people are omnivorous, what to eat, it is not easy to import grain from Datang and other countries, it was not easy before, and now it is even more difficult, because the Datang closed the trade route with the Wa State and forbade merchants to do business with the Wa State.

Not to mention that if you want to wear the silk clothes of the Tang Dynasty, there is no place to sell them even if you buy them.

However, in order to encourage them to come to work, the right to buy and sell was opened to them, so that when the accounts were settled at the end of the year, almost all of them bought money and sent it back to the country, except for those who were alone.

The courts on both sides of the Japanese state looked at it, good guys, boats of grain and cloth, this is to make a fortune, not waiting for these things to be distributed to the people, the Japanese court in order to strengthen their own bodies, first deducted fifty percent, even so, after the hands of those families can also be called rich.

Seeing this, Feng Zhidai already understood the plan of the Tang Dynasty in his heart, and immediately ordered that the Dongwei Imperial Court protect the property of the people, but if there are looters, they must be punished.

This matter soon spread to the three countries of the peninsula, and the Japanese country made a fortune by relying on labor, and a large shipload of grain and goods was more than the annual trade volume of their own country.

The lord of Baekje reprimanded his son-in-law, Yu Yici, and said: "Last time, you acted privately, and you were put on a role by that little lady of Silla, killing tens of thousands of our troops, and Silla is also out of control, and we are struggling in Baekje.

Relying on Goguryeo's commerce, we will never want to get rich. ”

Fu Yu Yici said with a cruel look in his eyes: "Father, don't worry, the child already knows his previous mistakes, and he will not be merciful again, and he will definitely go to Datang to get things done this time." ”

He promised these things, but in his heart he thought about how he could stir up the good things of the Wa Kingdom and Silla and avenge his own blood revenge.
