No matter how good the plan is, it must be possible to implement it in its entirety.

At least the white crane won't let the Japanese people know too much, and it is impossible for them to tell the Japanese people that you should not go and grow rice.

Bai Minghe stayed in Nianxue Tower for a day, and then stayed in Xingshou Courtyard for another day, and the last day was to see the launch of Guanghai Xinwei's new ship, which was the first newly built ship after Bai Minghe came to Guangdong.

"Because this ship is a trial production of new technology, it is made of cargo." Liu Mingxuan, the new commander of Guanghai Xinwei, introduced on the side: "The captain is seventeen zhang, and the actual load is 2,300 materials. This was after the necessary forty-seven crew members on board, and the necessary food and water for a month. ”

Three and a half materials is a ton of load.

This is a 740-ton ship, each of which can transport 14,000 stone of grain.

"Do you want to try those spire-bottomed boats?" Bai Minghe asked.

"The soft sail pointed bottom seems to be a better design to withstand wind and waves, but how to use it needs to be reconsidered. It has been arranged to try to make ten strips and seven hundred materials, and if it is not easy to use, it will be placed in Luzon, and if it is good, it will be made larger. Right now, our ship is very suitable. ”

Liu Mingxuan is also not in a hurry to new ship technology. Because at present, Daming's capacity is obviously insufficient.

"General Liu, a trading ship to and from Wajima. Who is in charge of the best? There is no suitable candidate. ”

"Fujian Sailors all know the blue ocean. He is a very simple person, and whoever treats him well will return tenfold. You have made the Fujian sailor have a huge benefit, and he has received this love from you. The most important point is that he is a ruthless man. When necessary, he would not be upset about killing. ”

Liu Mingxuan gave Bai Minghe a huge problem.

"This, I'm afraid I'll not move. If you don't let Lord Yu invite it, whatever I shipped back here on Wajima is a valuable good thing. I don't have enough scribes on hand. ”

Liu Mingxuan smiled: "You should be majestic to Nanjing." There are a lot of students in Nanjing. Just lifting people in a few surrounding provinces, you can find three to five thousand people. It just depends on whether you have this means, when it comes to students, we are afraid that Guangdong is one of the provinces with the least number of people in the entire Ming Dynasty. It's not even as good as Shanxi, which fights all day long, and Gansu, which is poor. That is, it can be compared with Guangxi and Yunnan. ”

There are few talents. Bai Minghe sighed.

But on the contrary, Yu Qian sighed with emotion. There are so many talents.

Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, and Hu Hu, the veteran of the Four Dynasties, are the leaders of Shen Xiong, who are listening to the class. Eavesdropping, to be precise.

There were hundreds of people in the courtyard who were neatly reciting a poem that was not considered a poem.

First remove the denominator and then the parentheses, and remember the change of the item. It is not good to merge the same kind of items, and the coefficient "1" is not good. To find the unknown, it must be tested, and the value of the return generation is calculated.

"This is the mantra for solving unary equations, and you must learn this as an accountant. Bai Minghe doesn't need someone who can only keep accounts, and his account book is taken to the household department. I'm afraid that newcomers with no experience may not be able to understand it. I was also forced to study for two months to barely pass, otherwise I would lose the leadership of the Da Nang line after the New Year. ”

Yu Qian drew a picture on the ground with a tree branch, the one-dimensional equation has been studied in the Ming Dynasty, and there is also a certain explanation in the nine chapters of arithmetic in the Han Dynasty, mathematics is progressing, and the white crane uses this form of mantra in later generations, which will make it easier for people to learn, so that arithmetic is no longer the patent of high-level talents.

"Why don't you go to the shipyard for a class? That geometry is a compulsory course for every craftsman. Some masters understand those truths, but it is the first time that they have systematically become a kind of knowledge. Shen Xiong said to Yu Qian and Hu Hu again.

Hu Hu asked: "What else do you have to learn?" ”

"There's also something called mechanics. This one is a bit difficult. Master Bai is still compiling textbooks, and several masters have also made great efforts, I am afraid that they will not be able to come out until the New Year. Recently, I heard that those blue-eyed guests also understand this, and they are willing to contribute, and time is indispensable, and there will only be more knowledge! ”

"It's always a good thing to study knowledge!" Hu Hu will not say that the world should not learn anything except Confucianism.

Another messenger came out in several teams to report.

Coming to Yu Qian's side was still a 100 households with a job in Jinyiwei: "Two adults." Things moved. The Japanese side is over, less than two percent of them survived, and Takeda Nobuei is a top master, and he killed nearly 100 people with a single knife. The head of the Japanese envoy was cut off by his own hands. ”

"Master!" Yu Qian asked rhetorically.

"It's a master, and it's a very good master. Said several lieutenants in the Israeli army. At least he can walk thirty or forty moves in Hua Wuji's hands without defeat, and he is an absolute top master. The brocade-clothed guard Baihu replied very seriously: "Also, this person also has a set of attacks organized, there are less than a thousand people on his side, plus our three thousand shield guards, even if there are no weapons over there, but this way of fighting is orderly, and the coordination of spears, bows, and knives is also very high-level, and it is completely a one-sided slaughter." ”

Hiss...... Yu Qian gasped: "Bai Minghe won't be seeking skin with the tiger, after such a strong character grows up, will it be difficult to deal with in the future?" ”

"No, no matter how strong he is, a row of fire commanders will let him know, who has the final say!" Jinyi Wei Baihu is full of confidence.

This is also the reason why Daming did not use firearms when he helped the Japanese people this time.

After hearing that the Japanese people were strong, not only Yu Qian, but almost everyone who was qualified to hear the news would consider that Bai Minghe had chosen such a fierce character. And judging from the current appearance, he is definitely a heroic character, and will it become a trouble for Daming in the future.

Whether it is seeking skin with the tiger or not, not only the people on the side of Daming are thinking. Even the Japanese are the same.

Rubbing the long knife, Takeda Nobuei has sighed more than once: "If it is really a treasure knife, I am afraid that it is on par with the top ten famous knives in my country, I imagine that such a knife will be mass-produced." We have fourteen treasure knives in our hands, and we haven't had a single blade for so long, Daming is really terrifying. ”

"What's even more terrifying is that once our farmers start planting mulberry trees, the huge benefits will make many people reluctant to grow food. Unless we make it mandatory for some land to grow food, we will have less and less food. "The one who spoke was an old man from the Miyoshi family, who was not young and a very scheming person.

Oda Nono shook his head: "The three major clans are very powerful against us. If we want to be on top, we have to be decisive. ”

"So, let's exchange it for enough food for us for a year, will the Ming people change it? How about a temptation? The elder of the Miyoshi family said again.

Nobuei Takeda put the knife in his hand back into the scabbard: "I want three million stone rice, what is your opinion?" ”

Three million stones, for these fourteen families, is already a very huge number. When the representative of the Miyoshi family heard this number, he said, "The Hosokawa family is not fighting among themselves. Our Miyoshi family is facing pressure from the Izumo Kyogoku clan again, and the figure of three million koku sounds like a lot, but our Miyoshi family wants 600,000 kokumi, not Damingshi, but Washi. ”

One stone of Daming is fifty-seven kilograms, and one ton is about eighteen stones.

Someone has calculated in detail that in the Tang Dynasty, one stone should be seventeen or eight kilograms, and in the Ming Dynasty, when the Wa Kingdom entered the Warring States Period, the one stone should be between 100 and 125 kilograms. It can be understood that one stone is equal to two stones.

When Miyoshi talks about 600,000 stone rice, that is 1.2 million stone rice of the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, the rice production of the entire island was equivalent to 40 million koku. Combined with other foods, for a population of 16 million, the average person is three stone of food per year, and it can be said that many Japanese people live below the poverty line.

Historically, even the aristocracy was very frugal in food.

There is almost no such thing as Huaxia's gorgeous setting on a large table. Many ordinary people just brown rice with some pickles. The nobles are better, there will be a pickled fish. Or add some pickles. The food of the Ming Dynasty, at least in this era of Wajima, is simply unimaginable.

"600,000 stones, you can feed 130,000 ashigaru. Do you have so many soldiers? Don't mention these, do you have enough for the Miyoshi family to exchange supplies? Nobuei Takeda asked.

"Yes, it's not a problem for our Sanhao family to come up with tens of thousands of taels of gold. And we still have young and beautiful people who can be sent to at least 1,000 people in the Ming Dynasty, and these are at least twenty taels of silver at the price of the medium-sized maids of the Ming Dynasty, and even if they are less, there are ten taels of silver, this price. Takeda-kun should talk to the nobles of Daming! ”

When it comes to slaves, the Miyoshi family is a little tempted.

The Ming Dynasty strictly forbade slave ownership, but there were many, many secret slave trades throughout the Ming Dynasty.

First, long-term laborers, tenants, servants, etc., who have signed contracts for ten years or even longer, belong to half-slaves. They will receive a share of income, but their lives are in the hands of their masters, and although it is said that if they kill these people casually, the master will be punished, but it is only a punishment in money, not murder.

There is also a kind of maid, and the maid is a very special kind.

Many of them were bought from childhood, and when they grew up, there were three ways out, one was to give the master as a concubine, the second was to marry a little girl, and the third was to marry someone to buy back the right to live. The price difference of this kind is huge, the cheapest is four or five taels of silver, and the most expensive is hundreds of taels. Of course, such as the Oiran, it cannot be counted in silver.

An ordinary commoner in the Ming Dynasty, after a little hard work, only he could have enough food, and one tael of silver a year was enough to live, and a person only needed two stone rice to eat a year, plus some inferior grains.

"How many meters does this Ming nobleman have?" Another asked.

Odano replied, "At the pier, we saw about 600,000 stone meters. The grain is indecisive, and it is estimated that there are millions of stone rice here, to say the least. However, our Oda family still wants to buy some more linen cloth from the Ming Dynasty. These things can be exchanged for some gold and silver. ”

"I'm going to ask to see Lord Bai!" Nobuei Takeda stood up.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to see the white crane directly, and his name was a gift, and naturally he was to offer the head of the Japanese envoy.

After Bai Minghe received the news, his expression was obviously disgusted: "What's so beautiful about the human head, it's bloody and scary, if you give me a few hundred stones of gold, I'm afraid I will like it very much." (To be continued......)
