Chapter 305: A True Cornucopia

As a new comprador stage in the Wakoku Kingdom, the effect of the Hirado Port Management Committee can even surpass that of the only daimyo Iijima family on Kyushu Island!

Today, this new power organization has not fully demonstrated its due influence, but as time goes by, and various regulations continue to improve, so if the small merchants who were forced to stand on the same side as Cho Hyung-yi figure out the rules of the game, then the Hirado Port Management Committee will surely become a behemoth that everyone fears!

In a sense, the Hirado Port Management Committee did not just fulfill the role of the comprador class, they even collected the rights of the Wakoku Customs!

However, in this era, even if there are sober-minded people in the territory of the Wa Kingdom, there are very few in number, and it is impossible to compete with the White Palace.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that, unlike the Great Yan Kingdom, there has been no talk of levying taxes on maritime merchants for nearly 100 years, and the so-called customs Yunyun naturally does not exist.

Zhao Hengyi, who has modern knowledge, wants to control the merchant group of the Japanese Kingdom, and it is very easy for these merchants to pay a not high business tax to the daimyo, and he will decide in a word.

It's just that Zhao Hengyi deliberately did not determine the proportion of commercial tax, let alone set detailed regulations.

Zhao Hengyi never asked how the daimyo lords who were independent of themselves collected business taxes in their own territories.

In this way, the seemingly lucrative business of collecting business taxes has become a game.

The commercial tax collected by the daimyo is too high, so that the merchant will not pass through his territory, and will not even conduct commercial trade in the territory of the other party, and after a long time, the territory will naturally be deserted.

If the business tax collected is too small, it is very likely that you will not be able to make money and will be hated by other neighboring daimyos, and how to choose the pros and cons of this will inevitably become a headache for the daimyo in the future.

Under Zhao Hengyi's deliberate manipulation, the territory of the daimyo in the western part of the entire Wa Kingdom has become extremely fragmented, coupled with the implementation of the Tui En Order, the division of territory will become more complicated in the future, and the Yangmou from Huaxia has quietly and fundamentally cut off the foundation of the daimyo's rule!

With the addition of the sword hunting order, the decline of the samurai family has become inevitable, and the disintegration of the samurai class will also be inevitable.

This operation is completely something that Zhao Hengyi learned from the civil official group of Dayan Kingdom.

The current situation of the Great Yan Kingdom today is the future of the Wa Kingdom.

And what will appear at any time will inevitably be the rise of the public secretary class again, and now a group of people who have been called corrupt by the samurai are like the ministers, after being purged by Zhao Hengyi once, what kind of toss the Japanese country will be, but no one can say for sure.

As for the rise of the comprador class, the confrontation between the original merchant group and the original merchant group will be more intense, and Zhao Hengyi sitting in the position of the arbiter will inevitably put the strength of both sides in a delicate situation of balance, economic internal friction is inevitable, and even in the future, the entire Japanese country may become a dumping ground for the products of Zhao Hengyi's industrialization development.

Perhaps twenty or thirty years from now, the entire Japanese Congress will become a picture of people's livelihood withering.

But so what?

No matter how the situation of the Wa Kingdom evolves, the life of the majority of ordinary people cannot be more miserable, and even for those people, the appearance of Zhao Hengyi is comparable to a savior.

In a place where you can bring your own dry food to farm for the lord lord, and you have to worry that your wife and daughter will be taken away by the lord because of their beautiful appearance, in order to show the elegance of the lord lord and make living tea, any change in such an environment is probably good for them, right?

No matter what Zhao Hengyi's original purpose was, in the Wa Kingdom, compared with the oppression of the daimyo and other privileged classes, Zhao Hengyi still made great improvements to the interests of the common people.

This was in line with his previous plan, to narrow the gap in strength between the various classes as much as possible, and constantly cause contradictions and frictions between the various classes, so as to stabilize the position of the arbiter, so as to facilitate his remote management in the future.

Originally, Zhao Hengyi, who had been a little impatient since he came to the Wa Kingdom, became tepid after he decided to return to the Great Yan Kingdom.

Even on some occasions, Zhao Hengyi showed an attitude of not wanting to leave.

In this way, the unspeakably miserable forces of all parties became more and more submissive, and the little chamberlain who had been instructed by Zhao Hengyi to pass on the decree was busy every day in the official residence where he stayed, and he received gifts softly!

According to Zhao Hengyi, in order to pass on the decree, the angel actually needed to step on the sea to come, and when he arrived at the poor place where birds don't in the Wa Kingdom, he suffered a great grievance on this errand, and he had to make up for it no matter what!

The little chamberlain with a bottom in his heart is really like a mouse falling into a rice tank, although he got his share in hand, and even the flattery that the big and small leaders in the palace should have are all ready!

The most outrageous thing is that when the little waiter moved out of the name of Concubine Chen, these turtles of the Wa Kingdom even knew!

So he accepted a generous gift for Concubine Chen, and Xiao Nei waited until he closed the door and stopped seeing guests, only saying that he would concentrate on persuading the White Palace to leave as soon as possible.

In this operation, Zhao Hengyi, who saw it, wanted to leave this little chamberlain in the country to be the director of the office for himself, and all of them in the palace were really talents!

Unlike the monks who were burdened with original sin, the Shinto sect, who considered themselves to be the confidants under the White Palace, did not rush to send the honorific title, but carefully figured it out, quoted the order of the scriptures, and finally came up with a god position with great power in the east!

Even Shinto mobilized believers from all over the world to raise money to build the Dongzhao Palace, which for a while reminded Zhao Hengyi of the activities of building a shrine for a certain big man in the past history of the Central Plains Dynasty.

In particular, there are ministers who are not bad at sinology, saying that the good position of Dongzhao Daquan is the meaning of "the sun rises in the east, only I am undefeated"!

This explanation made Zhao Hengyi uncontrollably full of weirdness, but in the end he still pinched his nose and admitted it, after all, it was also a name that the leaders of the Shinto Sect had worked hard to come up with, and it was probably possible for the monks to misunderstand if they made a new honorific title again.

As soon as Dongzhao Daquan is on the throne, Zhao Hengyi has no reason to continue to stay in the Wa Kingdom, after all, this place has been tossed like this by you, and now that people have even given you the god position, you will become a god in the future, and if you don't leave, it will damage your dignity!

The news that the White Palace was about to leave the Wa Kingdom and return to the Great Yan Kingdom spread, which immediately triggered the retention of countless people.

The scene was extremely touching for a while, and all kinds of farewell gifts made the little chamberlain, who had secretly reflected on whether he was too greedy, smack his tongue in shock!

When he came, there were only seven sea ships, and when he returned, Zhao Hengyi's fleet expanded to thirty sea ships!

Before leaving, Zhao Hengyi smiled and said to Tang Ji that the outside world is rumored to have the cornucopia of the Dragon King, what kind of cornucopia can compare to this Wa Kingdom?
