Chapter 1 The Victory of the Sea Merchant

An ocean-going sailing ship slowly landed at Kagoshima Port, an ocean-going ship that departed directly from Zhoushan Military Port and arrived directly at Kagoshima Port without passing through the Ryukyu Islands. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Over the course of five years, the overseas Kanayama stimulated the enthusiasm for overseas exploration, and more expedition fleets began to go to sea, exploring the entire Wakoku country, and naturally the Iwami Ginzan and Sado Kanayama were also explored.

Kurokawa Kinzan, Nakayama Kinzan, Abe Umeshima Kinzan, and Izu Kinzan have also been explored. More and more people from China were hired to come here to mine gold, and it was no longer the direct organization of the relocation of the Chinese Republic.

More and more newborns are being born and more children are coming into adulthood. In the People's Republic of China, which now has a population of 80 million, the employment rate has begun to become severe. It is not strange for the people along the coast to go to sea to earn a living.

The Ryokari Gold Mine in Kagoshima was one of the earliest deposits mined in the Wakoku Kingdom, and today the area has become the territory of the Republic of China. In contrast, the main area of activity of the Japanese people is still in the northern part of Kyushu Island, and they have a tacit attitude towards the occupation of the southern part by the Republic of China.

How else can it be? They couldn't be beaten and defeated, and Huaxia didn't want them to be genocidal, let alone oppress them. Even after the establishment of diplomatic relations with the Republic of China, the lives of the various tribes of the Wa Kingdom have been much better, and many people are still worried that one day the Republic of China will break off relations with them, and when the time comes, it will be called bitterness when they return to the original days.

"Slave, we're back!" The boat slowly approached, the captain got off the boat, looked at the short man who greeted him with a humble attitude, and said with a smile.

The head of the slave was a Wa man, but now the Wa people are forced to take a Chinese name. Since many of the Japanese did not even have surnames themselves, the governor Li Tong named them after their country. The slave head came from the slave country, so he took 'slave' as his surname.

"Dear master, the old slave has thought that you will come back in the near future, the house has been cleaned up, and a few maidservants have been invited to serve the master." The slave head said deferentially, even a little humblely.

The captain's name is Mi Sheng, from the Xia Pi Mi clan, and he is actually just a son of a family, that is, the son of a family. However, because of his excellent navigation skills, Mi Zhu made an exception to include him in the family tree, and he was regarded as a side clan.

Mi Sheng began to go to sea the year before, and he was in charge of the Mi family's trade on Wajima. Since last year, for convenience, I bought a house, and hired a Japanese man who spoke well in Chinese as a housekeeper in the slave country, and that was the slave head.

"The woman of the Japanese is always a little disdainful......" Mi Sheng sighed when he heard this. Wajima is actually good here, the Wa people grovel, can let him experience the feeling of being a human being, the only problem is that women are too ugly.

"These are different, it is said that the ancestors have a little Han blood, and they will be raised well this year, they have grown flesh and their skin is much fairer, according to the aesthetics of the Han people, how can they be around sixty points!" The slave head immediately retorted.

Sixty points is not high, but at least it can be seen. It is very rare to be able to choose so many among the Japanese people. Mi Sheng didn't have anything to dislike, just ordered the first mate to unload the goods, and then followed the slave head towards his mansion.

During this period, I passed by a school and saw many children studying in it. According to the latest regulations, any child who is at least six years old must enter the school to learn the Chinese language and Han family etiquette, and even take a Han name.

However, this school is different, the children in it are all Han family children, at least Han American.

After five years, many of the first families who immigrated here were already with children. Five years have passed, and many children have reached the age of reading, so they come to enlighten.

Many Japanese women had relationships with Han people, and they gave birth to a lot of children in the second year, and they were almost three years old. There are also kindergartens in this school, or there are such kindergartens in various places, so that these children can receive Han education and inculcate their Han values in an environment away from their mothers.

It is conceivable that in the past three years, under the guidance of intention, these children will have a concept of the Han people, and ignorantly realize what nationality they belong to. After that, they will be guided one after another, so that they can see the lowliness of the Japanese people, so that they will have a sense of disgust, and then spurn and become Japanese people. They also underwent a series of ideological education, which made them completely Han Chinese.

On the way, as long as people who know Mi Sheng, they greet him warmly. After all, the Mi family currently occupies more than 40% of the trade in Kagoshima Port, and is considered one of the largest suppliers, and Mi Sheng, the person in charge, is naturally respected.

There are many things in Wadao that they can't be satisfied with, or people are eager to enjoy new products from China, and without people like Mi Sheng to transport the goods, the supply of goods is going to be completely cut off.

Incidentally, the IKEA Group also accounts for 30% of the trade volume, and this group with a strong 'royal' color extends its tentacles to almost every field except heavy industry. Even if it does not operate directly, it will have absolute control, so it seems to be only a large supermarket chain group on the surface, but in fact, its influence should not be underestimated.

"Welcome home!" Back at the residence, in front of this mansion covering an area of one square kilometer with a separate courtyard, a group of maidservants had already gone out to greet them.

They were all wearing ultra-short maid outfits spoofed by Li, and when they bent over, Mi Sheng suddenly saw it at a glance. I have to say that the taste of the slave head is really good, the posture of these maids is not good, but the figure is very good, which can make up for some shortcomings in appearance.

As for the housekeepers, of course, it is impossible to have that kind of creature, and even all the maids are usually in the house, so they are not allowed to come out. Occasional workers are hired to help with heavy and rough work, and these maids are usually required to wear some kind of preventive equipment...... This is not to be described in detail.

"Well, let's get busy!" Mi Sheng nodded, and then walked directly towards the hall. The slave head then dispersed the maids and let them do their jobs.

"Master, this is the sales list of the goods brought last time, please take a look" Mi Sheng entered the study directly, this is his habit, in the end, he has to understand the dynamics ......of the market and the demand for a while.

According to the list from the previous quarter, the shipment rate of luxury goods has dropped significantly, which means that this market has begun to saturate. At the same time, the grain shipment rate has increased rapidly, and it is said that the Japanese country should not worry about the food problem.

"Master, there was an earthquake in Kitakyushu some time ago, and at least five cities were turned into ruins, which also caused a lot of victims. Everyone is busy with disaster relief, so there is a little less enjoyment, and the price of food and medicine and the rate of shipments have increased. The slave said with a sincere fear.

Mi Sheng took a closer look, and sure enough, the shipment rate of drugs and various daily necessities has increased significantly. Even in terms of the amount of transactions, it has increased by about 20%, which is quite a bit of a conscience.

The local regulations do not allow these widows to be squeezed too much, which makes those black-hearted businessmen feel a little resentful in their hearts.

"Fortunately, there are a lot of daily necessities and medical supplies brought this time, which should still meet the needs. In addition, I also brought a batch of books and donated them to various schools in the name of the Chamber of Commerce! Mi Sheng carefully read the list and closed it, and commanded the slave head.

"The master is benevolent! The principals of those schools will be very grateful to you! The slave head suddenly flattered.

"It doesn't matter if they are grateful or not, as long as they can implement these books so that all students have books to use, that's the most important thing!" Mi Sheng glared at the slave head.

"Exactly, the children of the Japanese people are looking forward to learning the knowledge and etiquette of the Han family!" The slave immediately admitted his mistake, ignoring that he was actually a Japanese person, or that he instinctively thought that he was a Han Chinese.

"If you have any goods left, you can sell them at Fukuoka Port or Iwami Port or Sado Port, which is not really a place to live, but there is a lot of money you need every day. It doesn't matter if the price is low, you can't treat your compatriots badly! After thinking about it, Mi Sheng confessed again, ignoring the fact that this and the Japanese are two standards.

"Whoa!" The slave head said respectfully, he is actually a messenger, and it is naturally the steward arranged by the Mi family in the Wa country who really does these things. However, he also has another secret mission, which is to monitor the stewards to prevent them from stealing food.

This is also a matter of course, everything must have a management and monitoring mechanism, and at the same time, the bookkeeper and the cashier are also two different people, and even some are still people from the Mi family. It's just that I'm so afraid that it's not safe, so I explained to the slave head and looked at it.

As for the night, Mi Sheng naturally enjoyed it, sailing at sea for several months, seeing the sows are all clear-eyed, these widows look okay, the key figure is good, Mi Sheng is suddenly refreshed and energetic overnight.

Early in the morning, he came to the courtyard and played a set of "Five Fowl Opera", thanks to the blessing of the family, he got a complete method of refining the body. As a maritime merchant, you can't do without a strong body, Mi Sheng After several years of hard training, plus a large number of medicinal baths and the help of Pei Yuan Dan, he has also entered the middle stage of body refining, with his age, this result is already good.

It is said that the local popular health boxing method called "Tai Chi Boxing" is too slow, and it is not suitable for the old man to practice. That is, those old people, usually fight the best.

After staying in Kagoshima Port for more than ten days, sorting out the bills and making sure there were no problems, Mikatsu left the place. The fleet also quickly moved towards the Zhoushan wharf with the materials purchased from here. When they came, they brought with them basically worthless things, but when they returned, they brought back a large number of gold, silver, and copper ingots.

Some of these precious metals are mined from the Ryokari gold mine controlled by Mijia, and some are obtained through trade. In recent years, many scattered gold deposits were distributed in the Kyushu area, and many of them were found on the surface, so many Japanese people exchanged these metals for living necessities, so that merchants made a lot of money.

In the beginning, the profit was almost as high as 500%, which was enough to make all the seas crazy. It's been down lately, after all, the Japanese have learned that this thing is worth a lot. However, due to the lack of smelting technology, they did not dare to press too much price, and the profit dropped to 340%, but it was still very profitable.

There are still many maritime merchants like Mi Sheng in the Chinese Republic, many of them trade directly in the mainland, some take the route of Taiwan and the Ryukyus, and some even go to Jiuzhen County and Rinan County to trade with the local mountain people.

The nautical industry is also constantly developing, which also drives the shipbuilding industry, and larger seagoing ships are built. The exploration of the world is still ongoing, a large number of gold, silver and copper, as well as other more valuable raw materials, and even spices are constantly being transported to the mainland......
