Chapter 354: Muren's Dream of Restoration

Muren also knew the severity, and nodded hurriedly.

His current throne as the king of Japan is actually very precarious.

There is no other reason, to this day, Tokugawa, who has soldiers and generals, has also broken the can, has no respect for Muhito, and is not even willing to do any more superficial articles, and kicks Muhito to Zhangzi Island, which is smaller and more remote than Phi Island.

In the end, Muren's soldiers were only more than 200 people.

It can be said that his life could be taken away by force at any time.

It's just that the Manchu court, out of consideration of offshore balance, deliberately canonized Muren, who was a small general, instead of Tokugawa Keiki, who controlled most of the Japanese soldiers, leaving him with a righteous name.

But once Muhito showed the slightest intention to get rid of the control of the Qing court, then it was obvious that there would always be a white Ayatsuru wine that would suit him Muhito, and Tokugawa Yoshiki would be very happy to take over the title of King of Japan.

The so-called step-by-step frightening, like walking on thin ice, is talking about the current situation.

Muren sighed and said, "There are well-known assistants, such as Liu Xuande, who has a sleeping dragon and phoenix, it is really the sky with eyes!"

However, this rice ball cannot be eaten by the widows, for the revival of the great Japanese country, the widows will open the valley for a day today, and the other ......"

Muren looked at the toes peeking out of the cloth shoes, "In addition, please ask the public to ask someone to bring a pair of new shoes." โ€

"Hehe, Your Majesty, the minister is here for this!"

Sister Xiaolu Gongzhi smiled and opened the carton in his hand, only to see a pair of brand-new boots inside.

However, when Mu Ren saw it, he reached out and touched it again, and his face changed greatly: "These boots are of such good quality, could it be the boots made in Daming?" โ€

"These shoes were specially purchased for Wang Shang when Sanjojun went to Tianjin on a business trip......"

Sister Xiaolu Gongzhi smiled bitterly, "Tianjin Port is at the foot of the Qing Emperor, and now it is also everywhere. โ€

"This cloth, fire, socks, nails, ashes, and iron...... Merchants don't dare to sell openly like Shanghai, and use sea goods as a substitute, and the government yamen eats filial piety, but they just turn a blind eye. โ€

"The quality of the goods is good, the price is cheap, the local goods cannot be compared at all, and even the foreign goods are far less than the good ones now."

"Your Majesty, these boots only cost five dollars of silver, and the shopkeeper said, whether it is to work to pull goods or work in the field, if they are broken within a year, they can be replaced for free, if such shoes are not worn, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

"Oh? How cheap is it? I'm afraid that even the cost and craftsmanship are not enough, right? โ€

Muren is no longer a teenager who doesn't touch the spring water with his fingers, his eyes lit up when he heard this, and he laughed, "Yo Xi! The widow wore his Zhu Fugui's shoes, not only did he wear them, but the widow also wore them for running, and he was killed! โ€

Cursing viciously, Muren suddenly felt refreshed, quickly changed into his boots, jumped a few times, and sure enough, it fit perfectly.

ยท

After persuading Muren several times, he still didn't want to eat, so Sister Xiaolu Gongzhi had to hide the rice balls and prepare to improve his food at noon.

Then, he looked at the sky again and said to Muren: "Your Majesty, hurry up and wash up, and change into the Qing country's supplementary clothes, the Qing country's envoy is coming soon." โ€

"So early?"

Muren was stunned, and then sighed and said, "There is an old saying among the Chinese, it is a blessing or a curse, and a disaster cannot be avoided, I hope that this time the widow has indeed done nothing wrong, and my country of Japan can also use the power of Qing and Russia to turn the crisis into safety, so that the widow can be worthy of the ancestors even if he dies." โ€

ยท

Muren washed up with the help of his sister Xiaolu Gongzhi and put on the costume of the county king of the Qing Kingdom.

Speaking of this county king's supplement, Muren hated the damned Koreans.

Although it's all about compromise, but Japan was originally a big country, so it's always okay to get a prince's costume by yourself, right?

But it was these North Korean envoys who jumped out.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, whether it was the king of Joseon or the king of Vietnam, they were actually at the level of county kings (after Jiajing, Vietnam withdrew the king and was the commander of Annam from Erpin).

It's just that Joseon, as the head of the vassal, has always enjoyed the treatment of a prince.

Although it is not necessary to see the Qing Dynasty, it does not mean that North Korea can be indifferent to Japan and itself.

The Korean envoys argued at the court meeting: "The Japanese are shameless and lowly, and have repeatedly violated the seaside. โ€

The Manchus still have a little expectation for North Korea, well, just like the pick-up man believes that his girlfriend will not return to the rich and handsome ex-boyfriend who wants to get back together, there is a small expectation.

Of course, the Manchu Dynasty is not as good as the Manchu Connection.

The pick-up man is a dog licking, and the woman may still be thinking about it if she has a conscience, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty took advantage of the bankruptcy of the real boyfriend's family, and directly played a hand of rape overlord and took advantage of the bow.

It's hell that this expectation can be fulfilled.

But in any case, in the face of Korean complaints, the Qing court finally only gave the king of Muren the gown.

ยท

One thing to say, although the style of my dress in the Qing Dynasty is ugly, the workmanship and materials are very full.

Mu Ren looked at the six East Pearls in his hand, a red-capped county king's hat crown with an opal, and really wanted to deduct the gems on it to complete the military expenses.

It is said that this hat alone is worth 300 taels of silver.

He couldn't figure it out, the Ming people had already been killed at sea, why did these Manchurians still love to be poor and exquisite?

However, these things are not something that he can control, and Muren put on the red-capped county king hat and set aside a pig's tail to show his piety.

Soon, he came to the most beautiful building on Zhangzi Island, "Qing and Japanese Friendly Negotiations on Trade Matters".

On Phi Island, the shogun docked with the shogun was the "Qing and Japanese Friendly Negotiation of Military Affairs Yamen", although the two yamen are only two words apart, but the meaning and importance are completely different.

The Japanese government-in-exile has been so miserable, the silver brought out from Kyoto and Edo has long been spent, and now it has to count on the Liao salary of the Great Qing Kingdom to live, where is there any business matter to negotiate?

It can't be said that there is no at all, at least for most of the year, Muren and his close ministers still developed a little side business.

For example, Zhangzi Island, Zhangzi Island, as the name suggests, has a lot of roe deer on it.

It's just that the island is too small, and the roe deer on it is not only smaller than that on the mainland, but also small in number, so it can't be sold for money at all, and can only be eaten as cherry meat occasionally.

Fortunately, Zhangzi Island's natural resources are more than that, and a minister reported to Muren early on that they had found a lot of abalone and scallops off the coast of Zhangzi Island.

Abalone ginseng is a delicacy both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, and Muren also organizes manpower to fish, and after drying, it is sent to Tianjin for silver.

Not only that, Muren also wanted to be interested in aquaculture, so he personally researched and tried the unprecedented scallop farming technology.

This may be the awakening of the blood inheritance, because Mutsuhito's grandson, Showa war criminal Hirohito, is a prodigy of aquatic research.

He has published "Atlas of Postpartum Gill in Sagami Bay", "Atlas of Sea Squirts in Sagami Bay", and "Flora of Nasu".

If it weren't for someone ghostwriting, or as wanton plagiarism as Zhu Fugui, Hirohito is indeed a talented aquatic researcher who generates electricity for love.

Such a trait also appears in Muren.

Now he has reached a critical stage of experimentation in cultivating scallops.

The wild-caught scallops have also been sent to Tianjin by Muren to sell for a lot of money, which has been exchanged for funds for the revival of Japan.

In fact, it is a bit far from Zhangzidao to Tianjin.

Zhangzi Island is less than 100 miles east of Dalian.

It stands to reason that going to Liaodong or Shandong is the closest.

However, because of the butterfly effect of the reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu government had already stopped the opening plan on the wicker side.

Originally, the wicker border was opened to encourage the hungry people in Shandong and Hebei to cross the Shanhai Pass to break through the Guandong in order to immigrate to the real border and prevent Tsarist Russia from infiltrating southward and whitening the entire northeast.

But now, Tsarist Russia is nothing, and the Manchu Qing would rather give the northeast to the Russians than dare to put 30 million Han people into it, as in history.

This is the suicide of the birthday star.

Therefore, in today's northeast, the Russians are slowly penetrating, but the Liaodong or the so-called "South Manchurian" region is still vast and sparsely populated, and Muren has nowhere to sell those abalone and scallops.

As for Shandong, also because the Qing government did not open the wicker border as in history, most of the hungry people in Shandong became bandits on the spot, except for one that went south and was sold to the Ming Dynasty by the Huai army.

In addition, the Hunan army did not have the power to support Zeng Guofan's suppression of bandits as in history, so now the whole Shandong is even more chaotic.

It's good to sell arms and cigarettes in this kind of place, but it's better to sell abalone.

So in the end, Muren could only go to Tianjin to sell goods.

However, even if there was such a small-scale trade, the "Qing and Japanese Friendly Negotiations and Trade Matters Yamen" put it bluntly, and the main role was to monitor Muren.

After getting out of the humble chariot, Muren felt that his eyes seemed to be a little glazed, his feet were a little fluttering, and his stomach was growling.

Muren, Muren, are you just a man of this level?

He shook his head, shook off the guard's support, rubbed his stomach, and was about to cross the threshold to walk inside.

"Yo, Yuan Muren, Yuan Wangye, you are finally here!" The Mongol prince Sotna walked out with a smile.

As a Mongolian's short body, he was motionless in front of Muren.

Although Sotna is not a ****, as the successor of Seng Lingqin, the first martial arts country in the Qing Dynasty today, he is naturally the same as the monk king, and he has been crowned the prince of Bodol Gatai.

When it comes to status, it is not comparable to Muren.

"Chenyuan Muren, I've seen Lord Suo!"

Muren does not have the surname Yuan, but the Great Qing Kingdom said that his surname is Yuan, so he naturally has the surname Yuan.

Not only that, Muren, who gritted his teeth because of the demotion behind him, carried forward his grandson's specialty of pretending to be a grandson at this time.

In the future, his grandson Hirohito can be humble to MacArthur, and Muren can naturally kneel to the prince of the Qing Dynasty.

Not only kneeling, but also very skillful.

Muren knelt down on his knees, grabbed the ground with his head, and said, "I wish the prince a prosperous martial arts!" โ€

Seeing that the Japanese king in front of him did not even call himself a "little king", but called himself a "minister", Sotna became more and more happy.

But in any case, the most important thing of the trip is that Soltena will not forget.

Although Soltena is not tall, he can be described as a big shoulder and a round waist, and he has a typical Mongolian appearance, anyway, he is the kind of appearance that is very strong at first glance.

If it weren't for this honorable figure, he would not have been easily recognized by the court as the successor of Monk Greenqin.

Although there is no bravery, there is no loss of strength.

With a wave of his big hand, he lifted Muren up like a chick, and scolded:

"In November, my Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty is going to celebrate her birthday, and I forgive Japan for being tired and unable to offer any treasures, so I promise you a congratulatory watch in Japan, and I don't know how you did?

Let this king take a look, don't look at this king's fierce appearance, but if you want to talk about poetry and songs, Wu Ren and Zeng Bohan may not be my opponents, you quickly offer it, let this king review and polish it! โ€
