Although the king of Tamna submitted, he still enjoyed the right to govern the people of Tamna, and Gongsun Sheng and Xiao Rang considered that they had not yet gained a firm foothold on the island and did not move the king of Tamna. However, Xiao Rang also collected some information, the total number of Tamna people on the island is still very large, a total of 12 fishing villages, men, women and children, a total of more than 15,000 people. During this time, Gongsun Sheng dug into the corners of the Tamna people and recruited a lot of young women from the Tamna people, and there were almost 1,500 Tamna women who were engaged in the fishing of kelp, sea cucumbers and other seafood near the port of Shinjeju.

Chao Gai distributed more than 800 pieces of clothing in this village, which is like a school uniform, and there is a sense of belonging when you wear it. Of course, there are so many villages of the Tamna people, and it is impossible for every village to distribute them, and Chao Gai only distributed clothes from four villages, adding up to more than 3,000 pieces.

Chao Gai and the others went to the next fishing village, and the situation was even worse than the previous one, with low wooden huts, fishing nets drying everywhere, and stray dogs roaming aimlessly in the streets.

Chao Gai found the patriarch of the village and said, "I am a group training on this new Jeju Island, and I came to distribute things for free today, what do you need?" ”

"We need clothes, quilts and cutlery." Said the patriarch of the village.

Chao Gai said: "You can't be too greedy, I can only send you the same, you say what you need most." ”

"Then the cutlery is ready."

There are not many people in this village, just six or seven hundred, Chao Gaidao asked people to carry hundreds of sets of white porcelain rice bowls from the boat and distribute them to everyone, and the people in the village rushed up, and the soldiers shouted: "Those who do not obey the order will not be sent."

The people in the village lined up in a neat queue to receive things in a regular manner, and everyone who got the porcelain rice bowl was happy, as if it was the New Year.

Jiao Ting asked, "Brother, why don't you give clothes to all the Tamna people." ”

Chao Gai said: "This is the strategy, the village where we distribute clothes is not chosen randomly, it is the investigation done by Mr. Gongsun in advance, and the villages that give clothes to us are villages that are not hostile to us, or have little hostility." Although the Tamna people are a good race, they are not a single group, so they can be divided. ”

"I understand that as long as they wear our clothes, they will have a sense of belonging because their clothes are the same as ours." Jiao Ting said.

"Not only that, but the next step is to help the Tamna people build schools and teach culture." Chao Gai said.

Through the recruitment of female workers, these female workers will develop friendships with male workers, and then they will get married and have children, and the two sides will merge, and the culture and customs will collide, and slowly merge.

In the Tamna Palace, Hu Cheng said to the King of Tamna: "Your palace is a little short, you look at the huge blue and white porcelain vase at the door is almost to the roof, it doesn't look so good." ”

King Tamna looked at it and said, "The palace is a little short, but there is no money for major renovations, so let's make do with it first." ”

"It doesn't matter if you don't have money, just have pearls, I came out to purchase big pearls this time, aren't you Tamna people mainly collecting pearls, as long as you have goods, you can sell them to me in large quantities, and I will find craftsmen for you to repair the palace." Hu Cheng said.

King Tamna was very happy: "Then renovate the main hall first, I'll see the effect, if the effect is good, I'll continue to renovate, if it doesn't feel good, I won't do it." ”

Hu Cheng secretly said that if you can't even build the palace of your tribal chieftain, where will the face of the craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty go. In a few days, Hu Cheng reached a package of trading agreements with the king of Tamna, mainly to purchase pearls, kelp, sea cucumbers, sea fish, etc., and sell grain, cloth, clothes, and a lot of luxury goods to the Tamna people, of course, the luxury goods are enjoyed by the Tamna royal family.

Tamna tribe on the palm of the hand, Chao Gai free distribution of clothes and porcelain soon known to the king of Tamna, someone reminded the king of Tamna, saying that Chao Gai is to win the hearts of the people, let the king of Tamna be careful, the king of Tamna does not think so, but thinks that Chao Gai is stupid, doing these are loss-making transactions.

After sending off the Goryeo envoy to urge Ying, Chao Gai, Gongsun Sheng, Xiao Rang, and Hu Cheng sat down in the living room and considered the next step. Gongsun Sheng said: "This time, Xiao Rang behaved very well, very generous, and he was stunned for a while, it seems that they will send someone to Tokyo to inquire about this matter, I am afraid that the imperial court will ask us at that time." ”

Chao Gai said with a smile: "Don't disturb Mr. Gongsun, those ministers of the imperial court don't even know where New Jeju Island is, not to mention that a palm-sized island hanging overseas belongs to Goryeo or the Great Song Dynasty. Besides, Goryeo is about to burst into flames, where is there any effort to manage the affairs of the island. ”

Gongsun Sheng was puzzled and asked: "Now that the situation in Goryeo is stable, how can we make them mess up." ”

Hu Cheng said: "According to the news from our caravan, at least three generals in Goryeo are not convinced by the current king of Goryeo, and they each have their own troops, and the king of Goryeo also wants to get rid of them as soon as possible. The one we came into contact with is called Wang Shoucheng, which is the original general on this island, and now in his hometown in southern Goryeo, he is training day and night with 3,000 strong men. There is also a general named Li Ze, who is also a Goryeo general, in a mountainous area in central Goryeo, with 500 troops. Li Ze has a good friend named Li Ding, who echoes Li Ze from afar. ”

Hu Cheng said and took out a map of Goryeo and spread it on the table for everyone to see.

Gongsun Sheng said: "Who drew this map, the mark is still very detailed, and the mountains, rivers, and cities are all there." ”

"The caravan has accompanying painters, but it is better to draw this map, after all, this map is drawn in an abstract estimation." Hu Cheng said.

Chao Gai was weakly thoughtful, and secretly decided to find a master painter to come out, and draw more military maps when the time came.

Gongsun Sheng asked: "Of these three Goryeo generals, which family is bigger and has stronger appeal." ”

Hu Cheng said: "The three are all old ministers, on the appeal of Wang Shoucheng is stronger, this person is scheming, quite appealing in his hometown, in his hometown everyone does not know the king of Goryeo, only know Wang Shoucheng, the general of Goryeo." Li Ding and Li Ze are two cousins, although their appeal is not as good as Wang Shoucheng, but they are better in terms of force, and it is still good if the two can join forces to develop their potential. ”

Chao Gai said: "Our new Jeju is initially decided, the number of troops is not large, the combat effectiveness is not too strong, everything takes time, so the best way at this time is to let the Koreans mess up on their own, and wait for us to gain a firm foothold Everything is easy to say." So I'm going to go to Goryeo and have a good talk with Wang Shoucheng, Li Ze, and Li Ding. ”

Hu Cheng was a little surprised and said: "It's a bit dangerous to go to Goryeo, why is Chao Tuanlian involved." ”

Gongsun Sheng also said: "In the small country of Goryeo, most of the losses of the naval army basically have no combat effectiveness, as long as the plan is thorough, there is no danger." ”

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can't be a tiger." Chao Gai said.

After some discussion, the candidates for the itinerary were finally determined, and Chao Gai, Xu Guanzhong, and Hu Cheng went over to provoke Wang Shoucheng, Li Ding, and Li Ze, and accompanied Xu Guanzhong's six centipede warships. There are also six merchant ships, one hundred Chao Gai's own soldiers, plus Luo Yun.

Chao Gai looked at the lineup and said, "This accompanying team is really huge, and it is estimated that it will scare the courage of the Goryeo people." ”

Gongsun Sheng said: "We are not familiar with the Koreans, so we can't be careless. Jiao Ting, Lu Fang, and Luo Yun must not leave an inch. ”

The three of them said: "Gongsun Junshi, rest assured, the three of us will definitely not leave an inch." ”

The island is also very close to the southern part of Goryeo, and at night, taking advantage of the darkness, at dawn you will arrive at the port controlled by Wang Shouseong, which is a very small port, and the warships are not good.

The people in the port were very surprised when they saw a fleet, and Xu Guan and Hu Cheng went to negotiate, saying that Wang Shoucheng's old friend had arrived. Wang Shoucheng is worried in the house, where is it so easy to rebel, originally thought that he would support his family one by one to remain neutral, the selected three thousand strong men are not very well trained, they still need to be trained, and the food stock is okay, but it will definitely not work if it lasts, after all, the place is too small to compete with the king of Goryeo.

At this time, the subordinate came in and said, "General, someone claims to be your old friend and wants to see you." ”

"No, no, I'm annoying." Wang Shoucheng Road.

"He said they were from New Jeju Island and would definitely see each other." The next person said.

As soon as Wang Shoucheng heard about New Jeju Island, he thought of Chao Gai, and immediately said, "Come out with me." ”

Wang Shoucheng took dozens of men and horses to the small port to meet Chao Gai, Xu Guanzhong left the warship on duty, Chao Gai, Jiao Ting, Lu Fang, Luo Yun, Hu Cheng and his fifty ironclad soldiers accompanied the guard.

Wang Shoucheng deserved to be an old fox, he came over with a smile and took Chao Gai's hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Chao, it's been a long time, it's good to be away for a few months." ”

"Good, good. We stopped by to have a fun time and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Goryeo. This is the protagonist of Hu Chenghu's shopkeeper, he is a sea merchant, which is quite remarkable, and there are many materials. ”

Wang Shoucheng was going to pull Hu Cheng's hand again, so Hu Cheng cleverly dodged it, and secretly said if this guy had a habit of breaking his sleeves again, he always loved to pull other people's hands, this habit was compared with Yuncheng Song Jiang.

Wang Shoucheng saw that Chao Gai had a lot of entourage, and it was inconvenient to go to the living room, so he only set up a banquet in the Wanghai Pavilion by the sea to entertain Chao Gai and others.

Wang Shoucheng scolded: "This Wang Sanfat is not a thing, he thinks he is the king and wantonly kills us old ministers, we can't help it, we can't live anymore, New Jeju Island is also occupied by the Chao brothers, this time we are in trouble, you can't ignore it." ”

Chao Gai Zhengse said: "Ahem, this is not good, we practice non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries." ”

"Uh, this." Wang Shoucheng almost choked to death from a chicken leg.

Chao Gai said: "Isn't this the big shopkeeper here, do you have any difficulties to mention to him, he is a businessman, he only sells things, and he does not interfere in the affairs of other countries." ”
