Chapter 264: Laogou Gold Mine
In fact, for any foreign population entering Harbour City.
The intelligence department of Xujiazhuang will understand and investigate, especially those suspected dangerous elements, saboteurs, spies, etc., and will find ways to find, control and crack down on them to avoid causing harm and losses.
But intelligence services are limited in manpower and limited in their capabilities.
As a result, a perfect channel for reporting rewards has been established.
Tens of thousands of peripheral part-time informants have been developed, as the eyes and ears of ubiquitous.
And these days, Yue Tuo and Wakda bragged in front of the workers every day, saying that they were Dajin Baylor, and in the future, they should be respectful and polite, and maybe they would bring them wealth in the future.
For this kind of bragging, the workers laughed, but some observers couldn't listen to it, thinking that they were liars, pretending to be big people and trying to cheat money, in case someone was deceived, the loss was not a little bit, after all, in the harbor city, it is not that there are no examples of pretending to be high-ranking officials and pretending to be big people to cheat money and sex, so the backhand came to report.
And if you want to prove that Yue Tuo and Wakda are liars, and then take action to crack down, you have to find a way to get the pictures of the real life sketches of Houjin Belle Yue Tuo and Wakda, and compare them.
It also uses the infiltration capability and information transmission capability of the intelligence department of Xujiazhuang.
It was soon found out that Yue Tuo and Wakda were not in Liaodong, but secretly went to North Korea.
According to the information collected about the physical characteristics, the sketch portrait drawn by a professional painter can draw at least seven or eight points, even if it is not very similar.
Immediately got the intelligence department head Zhang Guoyan attaches great importance to it, that's right, Houjin is indeed seriously weakened now, the tribe is less than 30,000 young and strong, in fact only about 27,000, has been reduced to an endangered species, even if desperately to create people and reproduce, but the environment of Liaodong, survival is already difficult, medical treatment is not developed enough, and almost all Han people have been driven away or killed, the level of productivity has seriously declined, the ability to smelt iron and make cannons, and the loss of professionals such as doctors (even if it is traditional Chinese medicine, But something is better than nothing), resulting in a high rate of dystocia and neonatal mortality among women, and a very slow real population growth.
But with his strong combat power that is still at its peak, he still controls the treasure land of Liaodong, and he is still regarded as the overlord outside the Great Wall.
And wait until the effects of the Xiaoice period have passed.
This land in Liaodong can sow grain and grow grain.
There is a high probability that Xujiazhuang will not allow such a treasure land to continue to be in the hands of the Jurchen barbarians, and will definitely take action to reclaim the fertile black soil of more than 100,000 square kilometers and make full use of the endless forest resources and mineral resources.
That is, the tentacles of Xujiazhuang's power will one day set foot on the land of Liaodong.
As for the Jurchen building slaves, or exterminating the clan, or subduing and using, or driving them to deal with the rising Tsarist Russia, how to deal with it depends entirely on the needs of Xujiazhuang.
But at least for now, Houjin is still one of the most important forces in Liaodong, and still has a certain strength and potential.

So in his own office.
Zhang Guoyan, head of the intelligence department, personally met with the two brothers, Yue Tuo and Wakda, and asked them some questions.
"You are the big Golden Baylor, you don't want to stay in Liaodong to enjoy happiness, why did you travel thousands of miles to Harbour City?"
"It was our Ama who sent us over, he hoped that Daikin could form an alliance with Xujiazhuang, and in order to show his sincerity, he sent us to invite us, but in North Korea, we were besieged by the Koreans, and we lost our identity credentials and the generous gifts we were going to give, so we fell to this ......"
After taking a moment, Yue Tuo talked about the dangers and tribulations they had encountered in the past month or so.
"Alliance, hehe, to put it mildly, you wait for the barbarians outside the Saiwai, have the qualifications and strength to form an alliance with our Xujiazhuang? What benefits and benefits can you bring us, and what are you worth in exchange for an alliance? ”
Zhang Guoyan smiled and said to them with a disdainful expression.
Yue Tuo and Wakda looked at each other, remembering the advice of his father Khan Daishan, so he nodded, and at the same time bent his knees, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Zhang Guoyan and said:
"My lord, even if we can't form an alliance, how about Xu Jiazhuang accepting us as a foreign eagle dog?"
"If Xu Jiazhuang is willing to accept us, he is willing to be the most loyal minions in the future, and we will help do whatever Xu Jiazhuang orders us to do, and feed Xu Jiazhuang the horse."
"All we need is some food and basic materials, these Xujiazhuang have countless things, and a little provision can feed us."
"There are trees in Liaodong, there are ginseng, there are Dongzhu and minerals, how much Xujiazhuang wants, how much we will provide with all our might, I just hope to sell it at a suitable price!"
"We still have an army of 30,000 elites, as long as Xu Jiazhuang asks us to fight whomever we want, we will help fight whomever we want!"
"My lord, accept us, we are willing to be a dog of adults and a dog of Xujiazhuang!"
The two kowtowed while pleading continuously.
The attitude is extremely humble.
The requirements are very low.
The purpose is just to survive, just to be a better dog, and it's no problem to bring your own dog food.
Hear these pleas from theirs.
Zhang Guoyan was a little surprised, the man had gold under his knees, but he didn't expect them to kneel when they said to kneel, and their heads to kowtow, completely no longer the previous image of being iron-clad, against the sky, and invincible, just such a battlefield defeat, they were defeated, and now in the face of the powerful Xujiazhuang, they are willing to be dogs.
Refreshing.
Zhang Guoyan felt secretly refreshed in his heart, letting the strong compromise and succumbing was much more refreshing than letting the weak succumb and kneel, so that he could have a sense of accomplishment.
However, he is only the person in charge of intelligence, and he does not have the right to accept a certain force as a dog, and he does not have the right to decide whether to accept it or not.
"Stop kneeling, get up."
Zhang Guoyan said to them: "I can't be the master of what you said, I can help spread a word, ask the opinion of the rotating consul and the lord of the village, if they are willing to accept you, then they will accept it, if you don't agree, you can go home." ”
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"I hope that the adults will help me say a few good words, if it can be done, he will be rewarded in the future!"

[Chongzhen owes me a billion taels] 【】
Yue Tuo and Wakda said one after another.
……
Soon.
After Zhang Guoyan reported the situation.
The senior management of Xujiazhuang attached great importance to it and specially held a discussion meeting to discuss whether to accept Jiannu as a dog.
Li Jin said: "This is not a dog, but a wolf, a white-eyed wolf that may devour the lord at any time, wasn't Li Chengliang bitten by Nurhachi?" Although Li Chengliang's scheming skills are too heavy, and there are mistakes and omissions on his body, all kinds of help measures cannot be said to be unkind to Nurhachi, and the result is still in exchange for betrayal, which shows that the Jurchens are not familiar with it, they just want to use our Xujiazhuang to recover their vitality, and when they think they can do it, it is time to draw a knife and betray us. ”
Yang Zhongyuan agreed: "In the land of Liaodong, it is enough to support a Guanning army, the Guanning army is currently very obedient, and there are a lot of supplies every year, which is quite diligent, it is better to support them to destroy the Houjin, and the resources of Liaodong will also fall into our hands in the future." ”
Zhao Jinfu immediately shook his head and said: "Not necessarily, Guan Ningjun's appetite is not small, a few years ago, the imperial court's annual military expenditure of 4 million yuan and grain could not satisfy their appetite, and they shouted that the money and food were insufficient every year. They occupy the resources of Liaodong, why don't they develop it themselves, why give it to us, and then wait for Liaodong to become their own territory, we can't meddle in it except to spend money to buy resources...... Balance, I think the land of Liaodong needs to be balanced, and the Guan Ning army can't be dominant. ”
Wu Dabao said: "After all, Guan Ningjun is our Huaxia tribe, and the Jurchen Jiannu is a foreign race, the owner of the village said, instead of cheap his own people, he can't be cheap of other races, how can he help and support even other races for some interests, if the owner of the village knows, he will definitely criticize it." ”
Zhao Jinfu explained: "That's also because Liaodong is extremely rich in resources, the owner of the village has said more than once, Liaodong is a treasure land, a treasure land that can be coveted by countless forces, we can't let this treasure land, swallowed by the Guanning army, and finally cultivate a monster-like opponent out, then sooner or later it will be a threat to us, you must know that the elite of the Guanning army is close to 100,000, and the bitter cold land of Liaodong is a place to exercise the elite, we can't take it lightly." ”
Xie Tianqing nodded in support of this point of view: "I think Lao Zhao is right, balance, the land of Liaodong, it is better to balance the forces of all parties, otherwise even if it does not threaten us, it will eat small fish with big fish, swallow the surrounding weak forces, and slowly become a behemoth." ”
Li Jin looked at Xu Sheng, who was sitting at the top of the month's rotating consul, and said, "Brother Xu, you are the ruling of this month, I don't know what you think?" ”
Xu Sheng shook his head and said: "This is not a trivial matter, wait for the owner to come back and make a decision, I will listen to his instructions." ”
"Well, as it should be."
Everyone nodded.
……
Didn't wait long.
On April 22, Xu Yuan came back, and the high-level officials put this question in front of him whether to accept Jiannu as a dog or not.
"As long as the young and strong population of Jiannu is controlled below 30,000 for a long time, why don't you accept this dog?"
Xu Yuan touched his chin, thought for a while and said: "Let's take it, in terms of food alone, the grain produced in Liaodong in the future will account for one-third of the Ming Dynasty, and this treasure land really can't completely fall into the hands of others, Guan Ningjun has developed too fast in recent years, and this year won the Liaodong Peninsula, although in order to show goodwill, Lushun Port was given to us for development, but in the future, if there is a heroic and strategic figure, our Xujiazhuang is not dangerous, and the Ming Dynasty is in danger first, so it is time to limit it slightly." ”

"In addition, there is a place called Mohe in the north of Liaodong, where it is very cold, but there is very rich gold in the riverbed (that is, Laogou gold mine, with a total reserve of nearly 1,000 tons), let Jiannu bring tens of thousands of slave laborers to pan for gold, all the gold taken out, can be bought at market prices and other materials in Songshan City, and the price cannot be increased at will, if the Guanning army does not agree, then let Jiannu go to Port Arthur and trade directly with us, and our fleet can provide a large number of materials."
"Yes, owner!"
"The owner is wise!"
The top brass nodded.
……
"Xu Jiazhuang promised to accept us as dogs!"
"I also gave the specific location of a big gold mine, and you can get a lot of gold with a little digging, and then you can use the gold to buy cheap grain, sugar, canned food, clothing and other materials!"
"There is also a representative who will be stationed in Harbour City to act as a liaison to maintain long-term communication."
"Brother, let me be this liaison, you are the eldest brother, you will inherit the throne in the future, it is better for me to stay here."
After getting the good news.
Wakda was so excited that he shouted and said in front of his eldest brother Yueto.
"I ......"
Yue Tuo opened his mouth, in fact, what he wanted to say was that it might be better for him to be this liaison, after all, he was the eldest son of Daishan, and he was the most sincere hostage here, and he could learn a lot of knowledge here.
