0301 Slave Trade (1st Shift)
"The situation in the Wa Nu and Mao countries is much more chaotic than I thought, which is good news for us."
Wen Yi was very happy and said, "Have you figured out how to carry out the plan?" ”
He Fang said: "After the city of Lanzhou is repaired, we are ready to act, but considering that the Treasure Island fortress has not been repaired, we have not taken action. ”
Wen Yi asked, "How is the construction on Treasure Island?" ”
He Fang said: "The fortress can be completed in a month at most. ”
Wen Yi thought for a while and said, "Don't wait, act now." Keep a low profile on Treasure Island, and the Unons won't be able to find out what's going on there. ”
He Fang's spirits perked up and he said, "Yes." ”
With an order, a joint caravan composed of the military, the Weiwei Department and the Ministry of Commerce went to the Japanese slave country and the Mao country respectively.
They didn't talk to people aimlessly, that would have no effect, and might cause the Japanese slave countries to be vigilant.
Rather, it is aimed at finding specific countries to talk to.
On the side of the Japanese slave country, they first went to a country called Dog Evil Korea.
This country also appears in the Chinese history books, and was once a vassal state of the Yamatai Kingdom, and its strength is relatively strong.
The point is that its territory is adjacent to the Maoist country, which is more convenient to move. The two sides often fight each other, and the hatred is very deep, which makes them more motivated to fight the Mao people's country.
Since the previous year, the merchants of the Tang Kingdom have begun to trade with them, and communication channels have been established between the two sides.
Therefore, it was easy for the merchant group to meet the king of the Dog Evil Korea.
After some praise, Wu Ba, the leader of the merchant group, took the opportunity to guide the topic to Mao Renguo.
As soon as the dog evil Korean monarch heard the name Mao Ren, his eyes turned red, and he scolded Mao Ren for being barbaric and rude.
Wu Ba was secretly happy in his heart, and kept making provocative remarks.
Until the dog evil king of Korea accidentally said: "This hairy man is like a mouse, no matter how you kill it, you can't kill it cleanly, and you are angry with me." ”
Wu Ba pretended to be sorry and said, "Why do you want to kill it? What a waste. ”
The dog evil Korean king said: "What can I do if I don't kill it?" Keeping it is even more wasteful of food. ”
Wu Ba said: "You can let them help you farm and mine...... All the dirty, tiring, and dangerous work can be left to them. Anyway, it's a slave, and it's not distressing to die. ”
The king of the dog evil Han shook his head and said: "It's too troublesome to let the hairy people work and send people to supervise, some people in my country are untouchables, they are more obedient, and they will work hard without supervision." ”
Wu Ba said enviously: "I see." Alas, the king of our country often lamented the lack of slaves to work, and there was no human race in many lands. ”
"If you let him know that you killed the slaves, I don't know how sad it would be."
"Haha......" The dog evil king of Korea is very proud, and he finally has something worth showing off.
A dog-evil Korean minister's eyes lit up: "We can sell the captured Maoren slaves to you, so that you can use them as slaves." ”
The Dog Evil King was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and hurriedly said, "Yes, we can sell slaves to you." ”
"You see, these slaves can help you farm and mine...... You can produce more food and goods...... And then exchange these goods from us for slaves. ”
"There are many slaves in the Maoren country, which is enough to solve your employment problem...... We'll all reap the benefits. ”
"In the words of your Tang Kingdom, what is this called...... Pair...... Double ......"
Wu Ba said: "Win-win. ”
The dog evil Korean king patted his thigh and said, "That's right, win-win, what are you hesitating about." ”
Wu Ba's heart blossomed, but he said with a hesitant look on his face: "This ...... No, we've never bought or sold slaves, and we don't know how to do it. ”
The dog evil Korean king said: "It's not too late to do it now...... In this way, how about a set of blue and white porcelain tea sets and a hairy man? ”
Wu Ba didn't think about it at all when he heard it, and flatly refused: "Then forget it, don't do this business." ”
The dog evil Korean king said: "Then how do you say to change." ”
Wu Badao: "A blue and white porcelain bowl for a slave ......"
"No, it's too little, at least three porcelain bowls."
"Two ......"
"Deal...... Someone comes, immediately send someone to catch the hairy slaves. ”
“…… Wait, we just want sturdy young slaves, young women and baby girls. A young woman with a porcelain bowl, two baby girls with a teacup. ”
"What do you want women to do?"
"Women can have children."
At the same time, another caravan went to the Maoren Kingdom and found a large tribe adjacent to the Uno Kingdom.
The Mao people were even more savage, and they didn't use any conspiracy at all, and told them directly: We need slaves from the Japanese slave country, only young and young women and baby girls.
Tempted by all kinds of goods, this Maoren tribe launched an attack on the neighboring Japanese slave kingdom without saying a word.
The territory of this tribe is staggered with the Dog Evil Korea, and the two sides do not have a direct border, which can delay the time of exposure.
Sooner or later, this kind of thing will be exposed, but once certain trends are formed, it is not something that one or two people can reverse.
As long as they are still selfish, even if they know that Tang Guo is uneasy and kind, they will still jump into the quagmire.
Now it belongs to the stage of burying seeds, and when the seeds take root and germinate, you can let go of the operation of your hands and feet.
So this time they only chose four forces, two Maoren tribes, and two Japanese slave countries.
Because of the death of Queen Yamatai, the border between the two countries, which has regained calm, is once again caught in the midst of sword warfare.
Countless people died, and the living were strung in a long line like ropes and grasshoppers, and escorted to the seashore to be sent to the merchant ships of the Tang Kingdom.
In exchange for all kinds of fine porcelain, silk, glass and other valuables, as well as a small number of rough iron weapons.
These exquisite goods will be placed in the homes of the nobles to decorate their good life. Weapons will be thrown into battle, killing more people.
The traded slaves were first sent to the island, and the men were directly loaded onto ships and transported to various mines and construction sites to work until they died.
The woman would be given a short rest and then sent back to the Tang Kingdom.
Free distribution to bachelors as wives - in fact, at this time, Tang Guo was already seriously more women than men, and there were no bachelors at all.
Most of the so-called bachelors are homeless people who have just migrated from outside.
Most of these female slaves were given to the soldiers as slaves, and some were bought as maids and concubines at a price that was not cheap.
It's too cheap for anyone to cherish, and it's still an effective way to grab the resources in the hands of the people.
One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and no one can say that Wen Yi is doing something wrong.
These women all have Tang nationality and enjoy the protection of Tang law, and they can be called, but they cannot be abused or mutilated.
Wen Yi got these women back in order to supplement the population and give more children to the Tang people, but it was not for people to kill.
