As mentioned above, in 1192, after the Minamoto Yoritomo of Japan obtained the title of Shogun from the Imperial Court, he established the shogunate in Kamakura, and the samurai aristocracy began to exercise absolute power, and the emperor was virtually useless.

The Satsuma Domain is located in the southwestern part of Kyushu, which is part of Kagoshima and Miyazaki prefectures.

The so-called feudal lord of the Shimazu clan lived in Kamakura as a member of the Shogunate family from the Kamakura period, and the guardians and landlords were responsible for developing the territory.

The Satsuma Domain was based on a unique system of separation of soldiers and peasants, such as the outer castle system and the gate cutting system, and the fact that it was located in a volcanic area and was subject to harsh natural conditions such as typhoons, which made their productivity extremely poor...... So their samurai were very good at fighting or robbing.

The crown prince of the Ryukyus Kingdom said bitterly: "The potatoes, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins are still some ripe, and they will dig them up and take ...... away."

Zhang Guoan said curiously: "Why don't you resist?" ”

The crown prince of the Ryukyu Kingdom said sadly: "My father said in the letter that the Ryukyu Guard is mainly in Zhongshan, and that it is the essence of my Ryukyu Kingdom...... By the time they arrived, the robbers of the Satsuma clan had fled in their boats and could not catch up with them......"

The Ryukyus Province is now a transit point for trade in Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia, and is known as the "backbone of all nations" due to its well-developed trade.

For a long period of time, the trade relations between the Ryukyus and Goryeo were also very frequent, second only to the Great Song Dynasty and Japan.

In addition, the Ryukyus also conducted diplomatic and trade exchanges with neighboring countries such as Siam, Buddha Mud, Khundata, Srivijaya, Java, Sumatra, Manraka, Champa, Annam, Luzon, and further afield Persia.

Therefore, they will naturally focus on Zhongshan.

Zhang Guoan said: "Okay, say what you need." You've helped a lot with the island......"

The crown prince of the Ryukyu Kingdom said happily: "My island lord, I hope to get an Anjiang-class warship, one is enough...... Don't say that I, the Ryukyu country, help here. Our country may have benefited even more, and now, the lives of the people of Ryukyu are much better, and almost all families can use oil lamps.

The people thank my father, but I know. This is what they paid for with their own labor. ”

Zhang Guoan is very happy that he looks at the problem this way, maybe he has been with those half-grown children for a long time, and he will always be affected to some extent.

Zhang Guoan thought about the work arrangement of the Badaohe Shipyard, which was still very nervous and busy with the construction of the old lock boat.

The two of them also discussed the design of this kind of old lock ship, and increased the tonnage, which can be regarded as a kind of 300-ton armed merchant ship.

Zhang Guoan said: "It's better to find some clever Ryukyu craftsmen to enter the Badaohe Shipyard." Let Zhang Laoshi, the factory director or the craftsmen, guide them to build a ship......"

The crown prince of the Ryukyus Kingdom was so happy that he almost jumped, great!

Learning to operate their amazing tools is a huge reward!

What the prince of the Ryukyus Kingdom didn't know was that it wasn't that Zhang Guoan wanted to hide anything from others, but that he was too busy now, and two large locks were being built on the dry dock.

Zhang Guoan said: "At present, the sea security, I will let the Anjiang No. 1 and No. 2 ships temporarily patrol the sea for you, until you can build your own Anjiang-class warships and train your own naval army...... After all, it's not the same as a regular merchant ship.

What you need to do is: The associated fees are to be paid in full...... It is also necessary to build suitable naval camps in Shannan, Zhongshan and Shanbei, after all, you will also use them in the future. And it is impossible to mix it with commercial use, which is not conducive to regularization......"

The crown prince of the Ryukyus Kingdom made a deep bow and said, "As you wish, I will go back with them until Jinghai succeeds in ......"

"If a captive is caught, unless the crime is extremely heinous, there will be a lawsuit. It's better not to kill them easily, but to punish them for their labor. ”

The crown prince of the Ryukyus Kingdom happily agreed, saying, "Please rest assured, Lord Zhang, I have already seen how useful the captives are...... People can create wealth through labor, and wealth is endless. ”

Zhang Guoan was even happier. At least for now, this place has subtly influenced a group of young people, at least they will not grow up drinking wolf milk.

Of course, in the Ryukyu Kingdom, all the islands together are thousands of square kilometers, and the population is only a few hundred thousand people at most.

At present, there are only four warships of the Anjiang class, and except for one that remains behind, the other three have their own coastal patrol missions.

The mission of the Coast Guard is simple, it is to catch pirates everywhere, and also take the initiative to search for pirates on the islands where they may be harbored.

They don't have the strength to take care of the Southeast Asian seas, but at least they need to clean up the East China Sea.

During this period, they made great gains, killing or capturing alive about a thousand professional pirates, and seizing a number of supplies, of which five were the largest ones, and a dozen small dhows, all of which were sold to fishermen in installments.

The fishing team was one of the first departments disbanded by Zhang Anguo, and they didn't give people money to start fishing, and the big canteen of Badaohe directly purchased their various catches, which was based on the quality and price.

Moreover, if people think that selling the fish to the Great Song Dynasty can sell it for a better price, they are also arbitrary.

The fishermen of the Great Song Dynasty have a living water warehouse, and they can also buy or exchange ice cubes from Zhang Guoan, do a good job of insulation, and almost stick to the Great Song Market.

In short, when the Badaohe area no longer worried about its food safety, Zhang Guoan was the first to disband it, leaving the fishermen to work on their own.

It turns out that when they start working for themselves, the labor is more intense, and because they have worked together before, they sometimes cooperate even when they are working alone, especially in the case of a fishing flood.

Later, after Zhang Guoan provided them with larger, stronger fishing nets, their production was even higher.

The first batch of harvested sisal was just enough to change the net for them, so the old factory director Zhang wanted sisal sails, and he had to do it again.

Zhang Guoan sold the seized pirate ships to the fishermen, fearing that they would not be able to come up with such a large amount of money at once, and allowed them to pay in parts...... People are very accustomed to accepting this form of business, because the large and small pledge banks of this time and space are everywhere, and the method of repayment of loans in installments has been used hundreds of years ago.

As for the other gains from fighting pirates, not to mention it, it was not enough for them to pay, and they also sacrificed two team members and were injured.

However, Zhang Guoan not only eliminated the hidden dangers here, but also obtained a long-trained naval army...... More than a dozen battles have been fought, large and small, and it is impossible to think without combat experience.

Both Bao Wei and Captain Guo Beyu asked for the expansion of the naval army, because if the two large lock boats were to go to sea again, there would be insufficient manpower. (To be continued.) )
