Chapter 105: Ideas for Solving the Wa Kingdom
Inside the Harbour City, the Oriental Castle.
This is a large castle covering an area of 100 acres, similar to the style of a Greek temple, the main body is a three-level pyramid-shaped building, reinforced concrete structure, with 29 floors and 110 meters high, with an internal construction area of 550,000 square meters, and 1,028 rooms and conference rooms.
Tens of thousands of workers were invested and it took 18 months to complete.
Elevators, telephones, power systems, running water, flush toilets, air conditioners and other modern facilities are readily available, and it cost 100 million yuan.
It is the tallest landmark building in Harbour City, and the topmost laser searchlight can also serve as a lighthouse guide.
And because the surface is all painted shell white.
It is also known as the "White Castle".
This is where Xu Yuan now works, lives and lives, plus the large swimming pool in front, the large lawn garden in the back, and the reinforced concrete box building that looks like a city wall around it, the total activity area will not be more than one million square meters.
But only himself, two concubines, a son, more than 300 healthy women and maids, cooks and drivers, 400 elite guards, and more than 100 attendants, secretaries, and civil servants lived, totaling only more than 1,000 people.
So it seems quite empty and deserted, and the popularity is a little lacking.
The luxury of the interior is even more astonishing, as if the world's treasures, countless fine antique calligraphy and painting playthings of the Ming Dynasty, all gathered in this white castle, dazzling, dizzying, like entering a treasure trove.
As a result, there are some loyal people who have to admonish, which is too extravagant and extravagant, and it is easy to bring about a bad atmosphere, so it is better to be restrained and frugal.
But Xu Yuan didn't care, as a traveler, he has worked hard for so many years, can't he enjoy it? He has paid so much for the world at the end of the Ming Dynasty, can't he treat himself? Then the music is played......
In addition, considering that the scale of Xujiazhuang will expand in the future, and the difficulty and complexity of management will increase, make a pre-plan now, make the White Fort bigger, and there will be no problem of insufficient use in the future - this explanation convinces most people, and also greatly reduces the voice of exhortation, and transforms into worship and respect.
This made Xu Yuan feel uncomfortable, please, he really didn't have the idea of being a saint of all ages, he was mainly for his own selfishness, he didn't expect to get so many fans and worship, which gave Xu Yuan a lot of pressure, there was a feeling of being set up, but he could only maintain this character, otherwise there would be big problems and hidden dangers, it can be said that among the more than two million people of Xujiazhuang, Xu Yuan has become a figure like Liu Bei, and he must not collapse into Cao Cao, if he doesn't want to act, he has to act. This is determined by the position under his ass.
"The owner, the businessman Luo Houping asked to see, he returned from doing business in Japan, got 3.5 tons of gold, and exchanged it into silver dollars in the Tianxia Tong Bank, and there were also heavy gifts, so I asked to see the owner of the bank." An attendant officer walked in and reported.
"Oh, let him wait for me in the small tea hall on the third floor, I'll go later."
Xu Yuan, who was dealing with the official documents, raised his head and said, bringing 3.5 tons of gold, this Luo Houping has a value to see, and after the gold is exchanged for silver dollars, he will get a coupon, and when purchasing goods from Xujiazhuang, he can enjoy a discount of 5% price reduction, it is by virtue of this strategy that this year, Tianxia Tong Bank has absorbed more than 30 tons of gold reserves, and in modern society, Xu Yuan's goal of making money next year has also been done in advance.
As for the heavy gifts that Luo Houping said, Xu Yuan didn't take it to heart, there are too many people who have given him gifts recently, what rare treasures, antique cultural relics, stunning beauties, etc., there are everything, these gifts, most of Xu Yuan will not refuse, rare and exotic treasures will be put in the 'treasure museum', antique cultural relics will be collected into the 'cultural relics museum', and tourists are allowed to visit for free.
Only the stunning beauties are more difficult to deal with, because most of the young beauties who were sent were the daughters of official eunuchs and gentry, some had bound their feet, some were full of poetry and books, and some came with ulterior motives, and there may even be assassins.
Therefore, for these beauties who took the initiative to send them to the door, it is undeniable that some of them have outstanding appearance and temperament, which is heartwarming, but Xu Yuan still refuses to deal with them, and I don't know how many beauties are disillusioned and heartbroken and crying.
……
In the tea hall on the third floor.
Xu Yuan sat on the sofa on the left, with a flower basket in the middle, listening to Luo Houping, who was sitting on the right, talking about his business experience in Japan, and excitedly describing the scene of Xujiazhuang's goods selling well.
"Owner, although the country is small, but there are many people, industry and commerce are developed, there is a bit of prosperity in the south of our Yangtze River, those famous generals, samurai, businessmen's purchasing power is acceptable, if I go to the country once a year to do business, earn 2 million to 3 million taels of silver, when there is no big problem, in addition to replenishing the goods, I will go to Goryeo next month, earn a 350,000 taels when there is no problem, this is the profit that Xujiazhuang's goods can bring...... Luo thanked the owner. ”
Luo Houping bowed down and thanked him.
"It's your own ability to make money, and you don't have to thank you."
Xu Yuan waved his hand, and then fell into a deep thought.
If you put these two countries on the Internet of modern society, as long as you see these two words, they will either attract sarcasm and ridicule, or shouting and killing, arousing countless anger.
But in fact, in ancient societies where the number of people was roughly equal to the strength of the country, these two countries could not be underestimated, and they could be ranked among the top in the world.
The population of the Wa State is not less than 35 million, which is about one-fifth of the Ming Dynasty, the population size is already very exaggerated, in the so-called 'Warring States Period' a few decades ago, the land of the Wa State is distributed with hundreds of daimyo of large and small, attacking each other constantly, if the early stage is the village chief fighting, but in the later stage, it is a great battle of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people, in the case of a strongman to unify the Wa State, it is possible to pull out a million troops, weapons and equipment are not bad, and such a mobilization ability, In this late Ming world, how many countries can do it?
The population of Goryeo is not less than 15 million, the territory is comparable to the Wa State, the poor only kimchi, a small image that can be bullied by anyone around, the only commendable thing is that there is a tenacious tenacity cultivated in hardship and poverty, because there are many people, few land, and poor resources, so there is no oil and water, very chicken ribs, Jiannu fought several times and finally gave up the idea of destroying the country, and the country has a kind of ' The tenacity of the Sun Gong One Pawn, you can disgust you if you can't beat it, and there is a good thigh hugging skill, which is the most difficult type to destroy, and he never forgets the glorious past created by his ancestors, and always wants to restore the glory he once had.
A large population, the people are hard-working, and the interior is divided, but if some Meng people emerge and integrate the entire Japanese state, its threat is unimaginable.
A tenacious and tenacious, humble and dormant, with serious involution, once he sees a great opportunity, he is afraid that he will immediately turn into a tiger jackal.
There are these two strange things around Daming, which can only be said to be bad luck.
What to do?
As a traveler, Xu Yuan understands the nature of these two countries very well, and whether he has a better solution.
Do you want to be ruthless, come to the extinction of the population, and breathe a sigh of relief?
Shook his head.
This is a brainless strategy, the character of a country and a nation, only related to the geographical environment in which they are located, even if the entire Wa State is formatted, and then relocate a large number of Ming people, after a few years, the living environment of the Wa State will either force immigrants to flee, or give birth to a new expansionism, and the degree of evil will not decrease much.
And many people in Goryeo have Chinese ethnic blood and accept Chinese culture, will they become cheerful and atmospheric because of their bloodline?
Killing can't solve the problem, the living environment is the root cause of all problems, otherwise there would be no saying that the poor mountains and bad waters are out of the people.
So how can you solve the problem?
To be honest, Xu Yuan doesn't know for the time being, Xu Jiazhuang has not yet developed to the stage of overseas expansion, he doesn't even have a general idea in his head, he only knows that those radical methods are not good, and in the real world, the level of dog raising in the beautiful country is very high, and this experience can be used for reference.
"Owner~"
Luo Houping's words interrupted Xu Yuan's train of thought, and he said with a sneer: "This time I went to the Wa Kingdom and bought two Wa Guo dancers with a lot of money, they are a pair of twin sons, with a unique dance posture and appearance, and a perfect body. ”
"The beauty of the country?"
Xu Yuan frowned slightly, although the Japanese people are generally short, there are many beautiful women, which should not be denied by male compatriots who have collected some small movies.
"Let's see you." Xu Yuan nodded, the beauties of the Japanese country are not as beautiful as those sent by the officials and gentry, it doesn't matter if you take a look.
"Papa~"
Luo Houping was overjoyed, immediately clapped his palms, let the two widows into the tea hall, and asked them to perform a dance.
And the sisters Ono Tamako and Noriko Ono, who wore kimonos for performance and combed the princess's haircut, seized this opportunity to show their best and most serious state and performed their best dance performance in front of nobles.
Xu Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa, watched it with interest for a while, to be honest, what is the meaning of their performance, Xu Yuan doesn't know, he doesn't have an artistic cell in this area, and he may not be as good as the girl on station B, wearing a white silk short skirt and dancing a section of "Summer in a Small Town" attracts his attention more, and he can watch it more than three times in a loop.
But as they danced, they looked at themselves with affection.
The appearance is really good, which reminds him of a star named Ishihara in the island country.
In addition, there is a kind of gentle and obedient temperament unique to Japanese women, which is not possessed by many Chinese women, most of them are queen style, princess style, even if they are cute, they are pretended, and they are actually very independent.
The most important thing is that from their graceful dancing, Xu Yuan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly grasped an idea, how to deal with the ideas of the countries of Wa and Goryeo.
"No need to jump, these two women stay, I'll take it." Xu Yuan opened his mouth and made the decision to accept them, which may make Fang Qingyan and Xia He unhappy, but now that they are all pregnant, they have also urged themselves to take concubines many times, since this is the case, there is no problem in accepting this pair of widows.
"Thank you, Lord!"
Luo Houping was pleasantly surprised, it was done, and the goal of building a good relationship was achieved.
Sisters Ono Tamako and Noriko Ono looked at each other and smiled, hugged each other and cried, as canaries, they had reached the ultimate height that a canary could reach, found a noble person with the best conditions, and had the opportunity to live in such a beautiful and magnificent house like heaven, what else did they not be satisfied with?
