Chapter 55 Conclusion of a navigation agreement

Watching Feng Xing take out a box with extremely careful expressions and movements, Yuelian couldn't help but be a little curious in her heart. How amazing is that tea drinking utensil called 'Jianzhan', is it a blow that can be broken?

Last night, Yuelian told Bing that she didn't know what Jianzhan was. At that time, his eyes were wide and his expression was incredulous. Fortunately, he was also reasonable, and he listened to Yuelian's advice that he wanted to see the real thing, so don't be mistaken, so he made an appointment to come back the next day.

Early in the morning, the priest came. Yuelian was woken up from her dream and reluctantly came to greet her. She covered her mouth with the back of her hand and yawned as little as she could. At this time, Feng Xing finally took out a 'lamp' from the box. Yuelian's half-opened mouth was a little unclosing.

In terms of appearance, this kind of 'cup' looks thick and hard, and even has a bit of an iron-cast feeling. But such a solid 'lamp' has a gorgeous appearance. For example, the one that Bing Xing took out has a beautiful texture inside, and at first glance, Yuelian even feels as if she is looking at the stars and stars in the clear night sky. The gorgeous and fat beauty drives away the drowsiness of the moon lotus.

"This ......, this is Jianzhan?" Yuelian really didn't expect to see such a beautiful treasure in such a poor place as the Wa Kingdom.

After hearing these ignorant words, he couldn't help but want to say a few words of mockery. However, he soon thought that this representative of the Song State was the only source of the current Wei State, and his tone naturally calmed down. Since the Northern Song Dynasty, a very small amount of it has flowed into the Wa Kingdom, and it has immediately become the best collection of the Wa Kingdom. The lamp has its own cosmic starry sky...... The more bitter the life, the more the upper class of the Japanese kingdom liked the gorgeous and fat beauty of Jianzhan.

Shogun Kujo didn't care about the rest of the tribute, and left it to the commissioner to determine the amount. The only thing the general asked for was to build a lamp, and he asked for three. This tribute is a triennial tribute. On average, the general can only get one Jianzhan per year.

Noting down Jianzhan's appearance, Yuelian told Fengxing, "I understand." Since Your Excellency said that Jianzhan is produced by our Great Song Dynasty Fujian, then my lord will definitely be able to get it. Now can I tell me what my lord means? ”

Jianzhan, the general's most concerned request, was satisfied, and his heart was completely relaxed. For Yuelian's request, he didn't care much about it. The Song Kingdom must have had their purpose when they came to interact with the Wa State. For example, the envoys of the Song State were well aware of the trade between the envoys of the Song State and the Zhenxi envoys.

The general is not confused, and the powerful people below will do things according to their interests, and this kind of private business is inevitable. The sudden appearance of some fat is indeed surprising, but there is no need to make a fuss. It's the shogun who decides who will do the Zhenxi Mission. With the fat difference, it can stimulate the enthusiasm of those subordinates even more.

After listening to Yuelian's request, Feng Xing was even less worried. The islands in the Sea of Whales to the west of the Wa Kingdom were a difficult place to exile the great men who had committed crimes. Even the Kamakura shogunate, which was trying to control the entire territory of the Wa Kingdom, had no interest in those places. When the ships of the Song Kingdom passed through the Whale Sea, it was normal to seek a few temporary places to stay there.

"Why are you going north along the Whale Sea?" Feng Xing asked Yuelian, the only strange thing in this matter was why Song Guo was so interested in Beishang.

"It's hard to see what the Far North is like, haven't you?" Yuelian asked rhetorically.

He was speechless for a while. The world in his heart is the Wa Kingdom, and the extreme north is the Okulu. As for the appearance of the Far North, all the accounts of Okulu are that it is a bitter cold place with a cold climate and sparsely populated population. Real-world experience has led to the idea that the farther south you go, the warmer it gets, and the farther north it gets, the colder it gets. The choice between cold and warm is something that doesn't matter.

"I'll have to ask His Highness the General about this." Feng Xing gave Yuelian an answer.

Three days later, he was ordered to sign an agreement with Tsukilian in Heiankyo. Historically known as the 'Heiankyo Agreement'. In the agreement, the two sides agreed to trade and allowed Zhao Jiaren to set up commercial halls in Kobe and Heianjing. and agreed that Zhao Jiaren's fleet would temporarily settle on the islands in the Whale Sea.

After getting this agreement, Yuelian sent the content of the agreement to the south as soon as possible. In the letter, she told Zhao Jiaren that she was using this recognized identity to meet with the local heroes of the Japanese Kingdom, and to gather capable people in the Japanese Kingdom who were willing to work for Zhao Jiaren. But please Zhao Jiaren give the title of the eighth team.

After writing it, Yuelian felt that the numbers were too small, and changed the eighth team to the tenth team.

As before, the letter was delivered to Jeju Island first. At this time, it was already the end of September in the Song calendar, that is, the end of October in the Western calendar. The wharf was already crowded with people, and when they hired people to go to Jeju Island to open up the wasteland, they said that they could go home once a year. At this time, the things that should be collected have been collected, including going to Liaodong to pick up acorns. The farm work is done, and everyone wants to go home.

Liu Meng assured a group of people in person that if they brought their families to Jeju Island, the treatment would not change in the slightest. Their dependents will also be assigned to work.

Regarding the question of whether he would be restricted from eating meat, Liu Meng shouted helplessly: "How many times have I told you." Killing pigs regularly is not to rob your pigs, but to raise them when it is time to kill them. You sold the pigs and got the money, and you didn't ask for more money to buy meat. You can't just think about the benefits! ”

drove this wave away, and the next wave came. Everyone asks the same questions, even if they are already talked about by the managers, and the notice is written. The peasants were still stubborn and asked Liu Meng, the top manager of the island, in person.

These questions made Liu Meng feel dizzy, and he suddenly hoped that thunder would rain down from the sky and burn these nasty guys to the ground. If Liu Meng was planning to deceive these people at the beginning, then it would be fine. But Liu Meng has been sincere to these farmers from the beginning, and now the farmers' practices prove that they don't believe Liu Meng's words at all. Otherwise, why would they have to confirm it so repeatedly?

So the fleet began to move south, carrying a large number of people and a small number of letters. At this time, the north wind had already begun to blow, and it was only a few days before the big ports of Fuzhou and Quanzhou were headed.

Sima Kao was listening to a lecture in Zhao Jiaren's school at this time. He was surrounded by little dolls, and he was a little slurred when he recited the ninety-nine multiplication table. Sima Kao was not ashamed of being in the same class as the children. He was already ashamed. These courses are very fresh for Sima Kao. As a jinshi, especially a literate Jinshi of the Song Dynasty, Sima Kao had already passed a course. In other words, if he goes to work at Zhao Jiaren's side at this time, he can receive twelve yuan a day.

Attracted by Zhao Jiaren's lectures, Sima Kao was ready to complete all the courses at his own expense. As a jinshi, he himself felt that he would be able to complete these courses in a year at most, close to a level similar to that of Zhao Jiaren.

Then Sima Kao was invited to the yamen by Zhao Jiaren. Faced with Sima Kao, who didn't know what happened, Zhao Jiaren asked, "Brother Sima, I wonder if you can tell my subordinates about the art of judging cases?" ”
