Chapter 404: We'll Be Back!

Where can the owner of the island of Liuqiu know the changes on the Japanese side immediately, and he is still waiting for the other party's reply.

Soon, however, he received a telegram from Jeju Island, reporting that the merchants and technicians from the Iwami region had arrived safely on the island and that Anbi had been temporarily resettled.

Zhang Island Master called back and praised them, as long as the people are fine, the rest is easy to handle.

The silver ore brought back from the Iwami Silver Mine is indeed stored on Jeju Island, because it is close to Japan and can be transported faster, and the time and speed are silver and brass.

Second, he planned to refine silver on Jeju Island in the future, because it was heavily guarded and easy to keep secrets, and with the current military strength in the world, it could be regarded as an impregnable fortress.

In his plan, he is going to train a group of non-ferrous metal smelting talents, and when the time comes, some will be divided, and let the Liuqiu Navy take it to the American continent for development, where there are more silver deposits and higher grades!

And as long as a virtuous circle is formed, distance and time are no match for a steady stream of transportation.

He wants to build his own empire of silver and gold on Jeju Island!

Of course, he knew that silver and gold were not real wealth, but only equivalents, and that the continued construction and production of Liuqiu Island and the production of more materials were the real wealth.

However, more silver and gold will naturally be a big boost to support the strength of the flow of coins!

Brother Hu Zhennan went to Jeju Island for the first time, and it was Brother Hao who led him around.

Except for the barracks, you can't get in, and those tall castles can't get in, you can go to other places.

Jeju Island in August is especially beautiful.

The highest mountain on the island looked very beautiful against the blue sky, and even the iron antenna of the huge sparkling radio could exude a heroic spirit.

Compared to other places, Jeju City is not prosperous in business and has a small population, but it is square and has a quiet feel.

Such a city is not suitable for people like Hu Zhennan------- it's too boring.

Brother Hao, the human trafficker, loves the city, and he shows that he is familiar with the place everywhere.

He took Hu Jin-nam to the north of Jeju Island, where there was a large grassland area.

On that grassland, Brother Hu Zhennan saw countless horses for the first time, and for the first time saw the scenery of cattle and sheep in the wind and grass!

The two begged the wrangler to get them on two horses, and after a few laps of the horse, they felt a sweat and stopped.

I found a shade and sat down, and began to smoke.

Brother Hao touched the weeds and said, "There are a few more kinds of grass here, presumably the owner of the island has sprinkled grass seeds." ”

In the past, when Brother Hao sold Korean women through various means, he always came to Jeju City for training first, and he had a big house here, which was built at a great price.

Trained Korean women can be sold for a better price, so he is very affectionate here------ originally thought that when he sold Japanese women in the future, he would also spend some time here first------- but unfortunately he hasn't started selling them yet.

Brother Hu Zhennan didn't have the heart to care about those flowers and plants, he didn't want to know what the use of the grass was, no matter how beautiful the wildflowers were, he could step on them with one foot!

He let out a long sigh and said, "Can I really go back later?!" ”

Brother Hao said as if to cheer himself up: "Yes! You haven't seen those big ships in Dengzhou Military Port! ”

Well, it's already like this, he can only wait patiently------ he deeply understands that no matter how much the underworld can fight, it can't beat the army of a small country, it's not a level.

As soon as they left the Iwami Country dock, the troops who had come to drive and take over arrived.

They could even see the Japanese cavalry riding triumphantly back and forth on the docks!

The two of them, the Hornless Ox and the Drill Mouse, each hugged their favorite Japanese waitress------ and the others were given some money by them, and sent them home to hide first, so that they could wait for their return.

The hornless ox still keeps saying, "Why don't you take it all?" Why, you say? ”

The drill rat didn't want to pay attention to him, and said with a gloomy face: "It's good to let you bring one if the boat is so crowded!" Shut up!! ”

Brother Hu Zhennan slapped the side of the boat in pain and scolded: "When we first came here, this was just a small fishing village, and there were only a few farts? After we built this place into a prosperous city, we became outsiders and were driven away!

What a bunch of robbers they are reaching! ”

The big Song merchant who opened the restaurant cried------ his hard work was all over, and the restaurant he left behind didn't know if it would be smashed, maybe even if he could come back, it would be a mess there.

His tears stirred up the hearts of many, yes, if everything is ruined, even if he returns, it will be all over.

The sadness of more than 3,000 people seemed to weigh down the five-masted galleon that carried them!

The acting official of Iwami Province sent by the head of the Imperial Family, Hei Tsunayo, is called Hojo Takemitsu, and he is a rising generation in the Hojo family.

He rushed to Iwami Province as fast as he could with a hundred horsemen and three thousand ashigaru, but he was still a step too late, and he could only watch as those outsiders fled in boats.

They must have gold and silver on them------ but it's a pity that they ran away!

However, they may have left more!!

Hojo Takemitsu ordered the property of the outsiders here to be confiscated immediately------- and he also went to the Iwami silver mine to take a look, he couldn't see any silver in it, but the order he received was also to take over completely.

He asked the mine to continue, and the ore was piled up on the docks before being transported back to Kamakura Castle.

His subordinates unexpectedly found liquor in a restaurant, and Hojo Takemitsu came out with saliva at that time.

The Kamakura shogunate did issue a "prohibition on alcohol", but in some of the more remote places, there were still people who secretly brewed it.

If there is a need, there will be a market, and no matter how great the public power is, it cannot be prohibited, this is a foregone conclusion.

Hojo Takemitsu was a drunkard who didn't drink much, so he went there with a few officers, and he was able to find some fresh ingredients there, which they used to drink.

It's delicious, it's delicious, and it's so comfortable to enjoy without spending money.

Even better, they discovered that a large bathhouse had been built here, and the name was Umeyu!

As early as the Sui and Tang dynasties, Buddhism was introduced to Japan, and the first bathhouses were for practitioners, and later, in the early days of the Kamakura shogunate, they also began to be available to the public.

In order to save costs, this kind of bathhouse was originally a mixed bath for men and women, and the space was small.

However, this bathhouse, called Umeyu, can be as big as a three-story building!

Moreover, it seems that there is no firewood burning there, he burns coal------ fortunately, those outsiders have run away, but there are still a few Japanese guys still there.

Takemitsu Hojo drunkenly asked the Japanese guys to quickly heat the soup and make them relaxed.

When they went in, ah, there were expensive porcelain all over the place, and men and women bathed separately.

The water in the bathhouse soon became hot, but they couldn't understand why it was gurgling.

A Japanese guy explained that it was hot steam, and the water was heated with hot steam------ well, they didn't understand, whatever, soak it first!

The Japanese guys also gave each of them a thing called a towel, ah, it was so nice, they covered their faces with towels and sank in the hot water to enjoy it.

At this time, Hojo Takemitsu suddenly found a line of words written on the roof of the shed:

必ず戻ってくるから!

Hojo Takemitsu smiled and said in his heart, you don't dare to come back at all-------
