.Chapter 207 Kim Soo-cai

Returning to Busan Port again, Japan has begun to withdraw its troops this time. Of course, the ones who have withdrawn were those without combat effectiveness. The defeated generals would not be of great use. In the future, the safety of the North Fourth Road will be sent to guard the Ikeda family, Kudo family and Whale House. This time I came, I also brought a reward document for the defeated main general of the East and West Second Army. Others can return to Japan for the defeated Nobuta Oda to punish them, but these two people are a bit of a feud, so I will announce that the punishment for them is the best thing.

'His Highness Oda Nobuta Minister ordered that the two high-ranking Shibata Katsuya and Hashiba Hideyoshi's two high-rankings were unfavorable to fight and missed the military opportunity. We should have apologized for the sake of the two who had been fighting for the Oda family for many years. His Highness Shibata Katsuya was transferred to the guardian of the Hoi Kingdom, and His Highness Hashiba Hideyoshi's original territory was confiscated.' After reading, I looked at the monkey and Hashiba Hideyoshi with a smile on the ground, 'The two high-rankings, accept the order.'

If Japan is like Wakana, there is land with more barren missiles, but Honshu Island does not. There are two enclaves in the east and west of the Honshu Kingdom and Tsuma Kingdom. The land that the Honshu Kingdom has developed is only 30,000 to 40,000 stones, and most of the people living on the Honshu Kingdom are the people of the Honshu Kingdom. Over-development of land and conflicts with them are inevitable. Well, just like the European colonists entering the American continent, there is always one side to perish. There is no possibility of peaceful coexistence for both the invaders and the indigenous people. As for the monkeys who want to go

It’s even more so. The typhoons come once or twice a year. The island has a sea and mountains, with a total population of less than 20,000 people. Not only is the land full of dry land, the number is pitiful, with about 20,000 stones. In Daming, Malaya, it’s better to think about how to manage the land every day, how to catch more fish and pick some pearls to calculate. Most of the residents on the island are fishermen, but as Tsubasa Island, which is across the sea from the Busan Port, North Korea, foreign trade business is still prosperous.

‘Thank you the grace of His Highness, Minister Taizheng.’ Hashiba Hideyoshi and Shibata Katsuya thanked each other again and got up to receive the order.

It is said to be a re-seal, but it is better to be exiled to these two top-quality territories. The confiscation of Monkey and Katsura's territory will be given to the eight generals of Ohashi Mino, the former Hokkien and the protection of Mahism, except Ando Momoto. Although there is a suspicion of demolishing the east wall and repairing the west wall, it is already a great kindness of the Oda family as a defeated general who was not asked to apologize.

'Please take a look at the two high men. If you don't reward or punish, it will be difficult for your minister Taizheng to do it.' That's right, but Monkey and Katsuya were the generals who were used by Oda Nobunaga before. Don't you know the reason for the emperor to be the first emperor? This is also the influence of Oda Nobunaga's slow reduction of strong retainers after his son's stability after he took office. Residents like Akihiko Mitsuhide and Kawajiri Hidetaka have transferred to the office to assist Oda Nobunaga. 'Come here, please send the two of your nobles to the road.'

The last sentence makes Hashiba Hideyoshi and Shibata Katsuya so disgusting.

The success and the defeat of the enemy have always been the same since ancient times.

There is one more thing to do when you see these two people off. It is about the ownership of the Ming army cannons seized during the war outside Kaicheng. It is impossible to give them to the Ming army. Japan had never had this good thing before, but now it suddenly has it. It should be protected for research and imitation. However, when the peace was finally negotiated, the Ming State proposed the exchange of spoils and prisoners of war between the two sides. I still want prisoners of war. There are many mines in North Korea, and it is difficult to open mines without enough manpower. However, the cannons must not be given. Later, after the agreement, the Five Push Type 70 Water Cooling

The manufacturing technology of machine guns, bullets and bullet belts was exchanged for a cannon. There were more than fifty cannons in total, and nearly 300 Type 70 water-cooled machine guns were needed for exchange. The Ming Dynasty had advanced cannon casting technology but no machine guns, and we had machine guns but no cannons. This was also a mutually beneficial exchange between the two sides. More importantly, Zhang Juzheng needed a batch of cheap arms to carry out political reforms in the Ming Dynasty. Without the strength to carry out top-down political reforms, the result would be overthrown by the reactionaries as if they were the Hundred Days Reform. Any reform must be backed by strength.

The first batch of 200 machine guns were paid to the Ming army. After that, the defense exchange between the four north and south roads began to begin. Under the supervision of the Ming army, more than 3,000 Japanese troops divided into three divisions were transferred to the North Fourth Road. Zhang Juzheng and I agreed to divide North and South Korea with Kaicheng and Mount Kwangmang as the boundary.

There is nothing to be left to nostalgic for me in the South Four. The rebels are harassing every day, not to mention the fact that most of the Jeolla Dao is under the control of the North Korean army. There are very few places that can be controlled, with only three Dao, and the rent collection is basically robbed. Everyone knows that such a rule cannot last for a long time.

Just now, he settled his wives and concubines in Pyongyang, and the envoy came to the Celestial Dynasty, "to be in charge of the heavens," the emperor ordered that after reporting the king's separation and contribution to pacifying the Japanese, he was promoted to the governor of the North Fourth Road of North Fourth Road, the Censor of the North Fourth Road of North Fourth Road and the Commander of the Commander of the North Fourth Road of North Fourth Road. He informed the envoys of both Chinese and foreign countries to hear about it. I admire this."

‘Mr. Wang, come up and accept the order.’ It was the old acquaintance, Eunuch Guan.

As for why I became an official of the Ming Dynasty, I have to start with the bad habits of the Ming Dynasty, among officials or among the feudal dynasties, four words - deceiving the superiors and concealing the subordinates. At that time, the Ming army was not sure of winning the battle, and took the opportunity of peace talks to finally quell the Japanese turmoil in Korea. However, if Zhang Juzheng and I were written in the report to the court, Zhang Juzheng would definitely be a serious crime of raiding the house and beheading him. He privately argued with the enemy army to reconcile the Ming Dynasty in the feudal state.

The dynasty was not allowed. Fortunately, Zhang Juzheng's officialdom has been ups and downs for decades, and he was the prime minister of the court and the commander of the Jinyiwei. He immediately came up with a clever plan to save the country. He gave me a fake identity, and then reported to the court to grant me the title of official position in the name of organizing the rebel army to suppress the Japanese pirates. This is easy to do, because I am a Ming native living in North Korea, and the household registration files of the North Korea are now in my hands, just add one name.

Zhang Juzheng reported to the court. The king's love for the king was a god-like man. He first led a small group of rebel troops to harass the Japanese pirate team, seized weapons, food and grass, and slowly grew stronger. After he began to attack the Japanese pirate team, conquered the cities and territory, and was invincible. Finally, he helped the Ming Dynasty's royal army to drive the Japanese pirates into the sea in one fell swoop, captured thousands of Japanese pirates along the way, and then he surrendered. Only then did the Japanese pirates surrender to the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that Zhang Juzheng recorded half of his credit, so that I could get the position of the Chief Secretary, the Censor and the Commander of the Chief Secretary of the Ming Dynasty. The Chief Secretary of the Ming Dynasty, the Censor, and the Commander of the Chief Secretary of the Ming Dynasty, respectively managed the civil affairs, criminal names and military affairs in one place, which was equivalent to the current provincial party secretary and the Supreme President of the Provincial Court and the Commander of the Provincial Military Region, and controlled all civil affairs, government affairs, and military affairs in the local area. He was already like a vassal king in the four northern provinces of North Korea.

This is unimaginable in the inland provinces of the Ming Dynasty. However, after all, North Korea is a vassal state that has just been attached. Moreover, Zhang Juzheng reported that there were many rebellious parties and remaining Japanese pirates in the northern four provinces of the court. Without a king, others were not enough to take on this important task. The court issued this imperial edict. This is exactly what you can do. Of course, this is because Zhang Juzheng is the commander of the Jinyiwei, and it is easy for him to have problems in supervising himself. Another supervisor, Eunuch Guan, also accepted my generous gift, and turned a blind eye to pretend not to know about this matter.

'Guan Gong invited someone from a kilometer of the house and brought the gift in.' It was ready. The four servants carried a whole box of gold. I opened the lid and the room was suddenly filled with magnificent magnificent. 'Urgent Guan worked hard all the way. This is the servant's wish, to buy a cup of tea for Urgent Guan to moisten his throat.'

Eunuch Guan squinted his eyes and smiled, "Mr. General Secretary is really good at telling jokes. This money is enough for me to open a teahouse in the imperial city."

Actually, I know, but it doesn't need to be so clear. Eunuch Guan picked up a ingot of gold and wiped it, and said in a sharp and hoarse voice, "If you want to say that we servants serving the emperor, our favorite thing is this yellow and white thing. Lord Zhang is also a elegant person. By the way, when Lord Zhang calls him a family again, he will just call him a man. Lord Zhang has never been to the capital and doesn't know the rules. We eunuchs don't like someone who calls him a man. Although we are not men, we call each other Mr. Zhang, who calls each other so much, Mr. Li calls him that. I really like this man, but unfortunately I am the boss at home and I like someone to call me a man."

‘Mr. Guan?’ I tried to shout, and it felt so awkward. Why did Mr. Guan rename him the eunuch?

‘Oh.’ Eunuch Guan responded quickly, ‘What a clever trick. I told Xiao Guangzi that they couldn’t remember how many times Xiao Liangzi and the others had. It was so annoying.’

‘Kun Guan, how dare you ask who controls the South Four Dao of North Korea?’

Eunuch Guan rubbed the gold ingot in his hand, "Who else can you be? Isn't it just Xiao Guangzi?" Seeing me stunned for a moment, Eunuch Guan added, "It's Qi Jiguang, the one who won the Eastern Army."

‘Oh oh oh oh ’ At first I thought Xiao Guangzi and Xiao Liangzi were the names of eunuchs, but I didn’t expect that Eunuch Guan was talking about Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang. I said that the court could not allow eunuchs to be a member of the country, and there was no such precedent since the Ming Dynasty. However, Qi Jiguang was a tough guy. Although he was asked to be the vassal king of the four southern provinces of Korea this time to reward his achievements in suppressing Japanese troops over the years, he also wanted to look at me in the south. I think Zhang Juzheng wanted to use Qi Jiguang and me to make a check and balance. ‘Is the Japanese king’s imperial edict also read by Lord Guan Gong?’

Eunuch Guan shook his head, "The matter of adding the title of King Pingxinzhong to Japan is that the people from Guanglu Temple go to announce the imperial edict. Even if the day is not here, it will be soon. This is not my control. Well, I will go to Seoul in a while to announce the imperial edict to Xiaoguangzi. Speaking of which, Xiaoguangzi is not as generous as you, Lord Wang."

‘Oh, so that’s it. However, Lord Qi Jiguang has his difficulties.’ I still know some of the Qi family’s army, that is, they never keep prisoners unless they are the kind that the enemy generals can receive rewards. The Qi family’s army won a head-level reward of 40 taels of silver. Forty taels of silver was a lot of money in the Ming Dynasty, which was enough for a medium-sized family of five to spend the previous year. In comparison, of course, it’s better to win the head-level. After all, the prisoners still have to be kept under the supervision. Qi Jiguang killed more than 150,000 Japanese pirates on the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty. Although most of these 150,000 Japanese pirates were from Ming, the important thing is that Qi Jiguang has never lost a battle. He is really a military genius who wins every battle. He is a player of the same level as me. When we really fight, it’s hard to say who wins and who loses.

After seeing off Eunuch Guan, I began to study the issue of North Korea's economy. This was not only a bet between me and Zhang Juzheng, but also for my ideal. As a test field, we have to put in much more effort than those of Japanese territories. Because in a sense, the test field is the place where seeds bloom and bear fruit.

The first thing is to select talents. North Korea is also a country that is deeply poisoned by the eight-legged essays of the Ming Dynasty. It is hard to imagine how many capable people can be selected to help me with work under this system. The more than 3,000 Japanese football teams under my command are obviously unusable. How can I manage the local area if I can't speak a Korean language? They can just guard the border well. In addition to these more than 3,000 Japanese people, I now have a prisoner released by Hirohiro Ikeda from prisons in various places. They are basically anti-social and anti-human masters. In the eyes of the Koreans, these people are no different from those of the puppet soldiers in later film and television works. It is more likely to have a counterproductive effect with them. Fortunately, I have a good wife.

‘Hyesun, are there any people living in seclusion near Pyongyang? I am talking about the kind that has a high reputation among the people.’ No one has learned about the humanities and history of North Korea, and no one knows whether there are people like Jigong, Ikkyu or Zhan Zhao.

Princess Huishun raised her chin and said, "Well, I think about it, there is really one. She is a scholar from Pyongyang. Her surname is Jin. Everyone calls him Kim Scholar. No one knows what his real name is."

‘Oh, what kind of person is he? Is he still here or not?’

Princess Huishun stuck out her tongue, "I haven't seen it before, I heard from the maids. It is said that this Kim Sooka likes to help the people punish profiteers and big landlords. The first thing is that a big landlord came to Seoul, who wanted to buy land from near Pyongyang. It was winter, so Kim Sooka hired someone to plant rice stubble on the frozen Datong River outside Pyongyang. Then he sold the 800 acres of "paddy fields" to this big landlord in Seoul. After the spring, the glacier thawed, and you understand...

The second thing is that a big businessman from Busan came to Pyongyang to do business. Jin Xiucai hired hundreds of people to fetch water by the Datong River. Every time he carries a bucket of water, he has to leave a penny of water for Kim Xiucai. The big businessman from Busan asked what was going on. The hired person told the Busan businessman that this river is the ancestral property of Kim Xiucai's family, and people who come here to fetch water and drink have to pay. The Busan businessman immediately felt that this was a profitable deal, so he talked to Kim Xiucai, hoping that it would be possible.

Buy the Datong River. Finally, the Busan merchant spent a lot of money to buy the Datong River of Jin Xiucai. The next day after the purchase, the Busan merchant was waiting to collect water fees by the Datong River. When he found that the person who took the water intake did not give him a penny, he asked what was going on. The person who took the water said that it was easy to ask us to pay. You have to come to us in advance to give us two cents in the evening, so that we can repay you a penny when we fetch water. This is what Kim Xiucai did. In the end, the Busan merchant did not find his next home and went back to Busan in shame.’

‘Puff’ After hearing this good guy from Jin Xiucai, I sprayed tea three feet away, and was in a match with Zhuge Liang for blood spraying. What kind of good guy is this? Is it obviously a big liar lurking among the people? It’s strange why no one in Pyongyang Palace sued him for fraud, ‘Those cheated landlords and merchants just let it go?’

Princess Huishun asked, "What else can it be done? Jin Xiucai is a scholar. The other party cannot beat or scold him. Even if he sees an official, he can't be defeated."

I stretched out my little finger and gestured a little bit, but I saw that it was still not small enough. My thumb moved up a little bit and showed it to Princess Huishun, "A little scholar, not even an official, has so many privileges?"

‘Yes.’ Now the strange people are Princess Huishun, but Princess Huishun quickly understood, ‘I forgot that there is no imperial examination in Japan, you don’t understand. Scholars can wear long gowns, square scarves, and long boots. At the same time, they can exempt themselves and the two of them from their family from labor service. (Corres labor is equivalent to working for the public for free, such as building the Great Wall. This is not the kind of mahjong, but the kind above Meng Jiangnu.) When they meet an official, they just need to call the teacher, and they don’t have to kneel down and submit a post when they see the official. If there is a lawsuit dispute, they don’t have to go to the yamen to sue and respond, and send a family member. And even if they are finally determined to commit a crime, they can also use silver to atone for their sins, without serving their sentences or getting beaten. Basically, people without fame and fortune will definitely lose when suing scholars. After all, scholars can pass the official exam. You always understand the principle of protecting each other.’

'If Huishun says that, I understand one thing. I used to think that this scholar would have to be a bit powerful in the juren.' In the past, everyone said that the juren master, and that's what the juren master meant. If he became a juren, he would be a juren immediately. He could become a small official immediately if he failed the three exams, and his level was equivalent to the current level. He underestimated these scholars. He didn't expect that the scholars in feudal society had such great privileges. In the past, I thought that the scholar was equivalent to a college graduate who had not been admitted to civil servants. Now, empiricism is killing people. 'Since that's the case, I'm going to meet this Jin Xiucai.'

If you are really a master who can punish evil and promote good, you might as well call it for use. Some things are much better for such great good people to come forward. If you are just a big liar who bullies others with power, then your family will be confiscated and your head will be put to the ground.

‘Sir, there is no food here, you can go.’ When you arrive at Jin Xiucai’s home, before he even spoke, he was pushed back by a cold word.

This person is Jin Xiucai. He looks like he is in his fifties and has a gray beard. Well, of course, it may be smaller. A typical case of this era is aging before he grows old. His waist is straight and his eyes are shining. Even the god of killing crawled out of the dead on the battlefield may not be as good as his eyes. Could this be the legendary righteousness. I heard that if I read too much sage books, I will have a strong righteousness. The villain dare not approach it. However, after my birth, I saw many stupid things in school and reading, and there were not anyone who read Haoran righteousness.

Nonsense, the times were not for Yan Ruyu, but for the golden house. Of course, there were also people who read for thousands of cents of grain. It would be strange if they could read the great spirit.
