2420 Plague
Zeng Datou just nodded.M He didn't say anything, just opened his eyes widening the situation around him, and many people nearby were greeting them, as if they had known each other before.
"Don't worry, brother, this is the place for you to stay, and you're going to love it." A lean man next to him said shirtless. Not far away was a group of very short men, tied up in a bunch, most of them crouching on the ground, their eyes blank.
"Don't worry, they're slaves, you're not, you're not even the most criminal." A middle-aged man walked over and said to Zeng Datou.
"Oh." Zeng Datou nodded, dazed, he didn't know what to say, in all fairness, he felt very wronged, fortunately he didn't suffer any big difference in treatment along the way, they had three meals a day, most of the food they ate was related to fish, many people were not used to it along the way, and they couldn't stay in the cabin. Fortunately, they slowly got used to the sailing life, and then they made it all the way here.
"Don't worry, my name is Zhang Mao, everyone else calls me Boss Zhang, where is my brother? I'm honest, how did I come here. Boss Zhang asked familiarly.
"My name is Datou, and I am Datou. Just call me Big Head. I am from Sinjeong, South Korea, and I am from Sinzheng. The big head said innocently.
"I was arrested to confess the crime, the country cracked down on criminals, I was innocently arrested by those gendarmes to confess, I wanted to go home, but I can't go back." Big Head said.
"Huh." Boss Zhang smiled.
"Brother, you don't have to go back when you come here. It's much freer here than Xinzheng. Here, Koreans are the bosses, there are no criminals here, only Koreans. We had a piece of money, and after a few years, we had money. You can go back and marry a woman from Korea, Chu, and Qin. Boss Zhang said with a smile.
"This." The puzzled boss said.
"Huh." Boss Zhang just laughed.
"The natives of the border?" At this time, Boss Zhang said.
"These natives are very easy to catch, they are as easy to catch as rabbits and pheasants, they will stand there in a daze, and if you have a gun, they will be scared and not move." Boss Zhang said.
"Tell you, there's gold, there's a lot of gold, but it takes people to mine gold, and those natives are our labor force for gold." Boss Zhang said.
"But, if you want manpower, will you follow me? We occasionally go out and catch some people and come back, of course. There's not much risk, and I can pay you very well. There are about ten taels of gold a month, and you can sell it yourself if you catch an indigenous woman, or you can enjoy it, and no one cares about you, and this place is like this. Boss Zhang introduced.
"Hmm." The big head nodded blankly, the main purpose of the Koreans occupying Song Island was to mine gold, and the gold that appeared unintentionally at the beginning has now become the main industry of the local economy.
"I heard that the people of Qin will pay to buy gold, we produce gold here, with gold, there will be money, although it is said that criminals, but you and I both know, after a few years, there will be money. No one cares about that, and there is no government, no police, no army, no one cares how you make money, as long as you are ruthless, you can make money. Boss Zhang introduced.
For such a move, no one cares about this, this is a place where anarchism prevails, with the development of trade, the demand for gold has become great, Qin's paper money is far from affecting overseas, only gold can become the only currency, so many people are looking for gold overseas, of course, there are other properties, but those properties are far less important than gold. In order to speed up the production of gold, the Koreans had to go south to find the natives, as long as they found the natives, they would arrest them, or deceive, or exchange them with simple daily necessities, these gold were basically bloody, because the mining of gold was extremely bad, and the Koreans also used explosives, because the climate here was more humid, and the explosives often appeared squibs, and then many slaves were killed, plus the bloody suppression and mistreatment of the overseers, A lot of slaves died in large numbers. A group of slaves died, and then another batch came in, and that's how gold was mined.
Most of the colonies occupied by the Koreans are developing very slowly, because they are all predatory mining here, coupled with their extremely violent way of exhibition, which leads to the slow development of the area, and another factor is that they lack enough Koreans, although there are also some slaves to join their ranks, but after all, they are a minority, and now the Korean queen's strict crackdown has directly led to the abundance of manpower here, which is a disaster for the local people, because the Koreans can do a greater job to suppress them.
The temporary office of the new government of Chu State. Fan Zeng had already begun to make plans to let the Xinchu army go south. With the first part of the funds in place, it made him feel a little relaxed. Although there is still a considerable part of the funds that have not been solved, he feels that as long as he enters the Chu State and holds the power of the Chu State, he can completely solve these problems.
"Prime Minister." Fan Zeng's assistant was a little hesitant.
"What's the matter?" Fan Zeng asked.
"There is a Chu man who has returned from Nanyang outside and asks to see you." The assistant said.
"What's the matter, I'm busy. Let him tell me directly. Fan Zeng said.
"Hmm. I know something about the plague. The assistant said helplessly.
"The plague?" Fan Zeng raised his head in surprise and asked.
"Yes, our colonial state used a large number of local natives, as well as natives transported by Koreans, and these natives were infected with the plague among them, and then it exploded on a large scale in our colonial state. Many of us are actively fleeing from that place and going to the next place where there is no plague, that place, which they call the West. The assistant briefly introduced.
"What?" Fan Zeng asked with a frown.
"How can there be such a thing. These plagues are very difficult to control. Fan Zeng said with a big head. Because the opening of Nanyang is directly related to the future development direction of Chu State. If the plague breaks out on a large scale, it will seriously hinder the process of further overseas expansion of the Chu State. Because this process has a lot to do with resolving the internal contradictions in the Chu State. Thinking of this, Fan Zeng felt very worried.
