392 Goryeo Woman Wearing Silk
In fact, there is no reason at all, no excuse at all.
The Goryeo family just thought it was the noble man from the Ming Dynasty who finally truly accepted his daughter. That's why he borrowed such a valuable gift during the New Year, and the value of this gift was even far greater than the total assets of the family.
That night, the woman followed the manager back to the dock.
Two bright silks were placed in front of her, and there were silver hairpins that she had heard but had never seen before, and the jade bracelets that were very precious in the Ming Dynasty. Happiness suddenly filled the hearts of the girl, from the beginning, when his uncle gave him to curry favor with these nobles from the Ming Dynasty, to slowly accepting such a life, and then at this time...
The charm of the night, facing the first time he took the initiative to welcome his Korean girl, the dock manager exhausted his energy.
However, the girl didn't sleep all night and made a long Korean dress for herself with the silk overnight. This is a long dress made from the top silk of the Ming Dynasty that many nobles may not have the chance to wear.
The girl dressed up in a new look seemed to have increased her beauty index a lot.
It's true that people rely on clothes.
"This..." The manager was a little nervous. After all, under the education of Confucianism, he was still a little nervous about some things. But he continued: "You know I have a few subordinates, the tall and thin one, who loves the daughter of the chef of the East San Pier. I don't know you can..."
This feeling is like the turtle man in a brothel. The dock manager is still young, and his strong sense of morality still binds him.
"He also saved a few pieces of silk." In the end, he was embarrassed to say the words of giving a heavy gift, just saying that his subordinate also had some valuable things in the warehouse.
I don’t understand, but I feel interesting because of my own nervousness.
It doesn’t take a few pieces. In fact, one piece is enough to take a cook’s daughter home, and even two of them can be taken back together. Precious items like silk are directly equated with silver in Goryeo.
A woman, a woman in silk, a woman in a silk dock. She walked slowly from the way out, and was always imagining that she was no longer an ordinary untouchable woman in silk, heading towards Pier No. 3 to the east. Her clothes, her silver hairpin, and the jade bracelet in her hand.
All of them make everyone stop and pay attention.
When I heard that a noble man from the Ming Dynasty had taken a fancy to his daughter, the cook wanted to use a brush to brush his daughter's face as white as flour. I really regret why the smoke would make people black when they were in the kitchen.
The dock manager at the Central Pier is announcing the New Year’s Awards.
"The first one, the Thirteenth Guard of the Wharf, prevented four thefts of foreign bandits, and two successful early warnings, and were very brave in the battle to clear out bandits. The annual reward of the Thirteenth Guard was 4,240 taels of silver."
A guard team has one hundred people, which means each person can get a reward of more than forty taels of silver.
But what is the use of silver? It’s better to come to the best goods from the Ming Dynasty.
With a gentle clapping, a businessman appeared beside him: "No matter what you want, buy it with money. Only when you can't imagine, there are nothing you can't buy. After an hour, there are merchants waiting for you to trade in front of the vacant warehouses from 7 to 16, but remember to accept only transactions based on teams. After seven days of personal transactions, a row of new shops will be built on the open space north of the dock."
"Sir, do you have cabbage?" someone asked with courage.
The dock manager did not answer, and the merchant took a step forward with a smile: "Yes, each stone of cabbage only costs four or five cents of silver, which is a fresh vegetable in winter. Radish only costs three or three cents of silver. Garlic only costs two or four cents of silver!"
The prices in the Ming Dynasty were not expensive, but even in summer, vegetables were not cheap.
An ordinary dish costs at least one to two cents of silver per pound. Vegetables belong to the category of valuables. Due to planting, preservation, transportation and other reasons, the price of vegetables in the Ming Dynasty in history was the cheapest time in history, and a pound of celery costs three cents of silver per pound.
Of course, the yield per mu of cabbage is amazing. Based on the white-famous crane's winter cabbage, the wisdom of the Ming Dynasty further further studied the method of storing cabbage more in-depth, and each cabbage is wrapped in burlap. Compared with burlap, cabbage is much more expensive.
In Maoshan, paying wages was not directly paid by people from the Ming Dynasty.
In the process of paying wages, everyone knew that one of their wages was deducted by the Korean nobles. However, the annual reward was not wages, and it was not proposed to leave the big account. This was purely because the people of the Ming Dynasty were stupid and even gave these untouchables to the New Year.
The only thing that the nobles in Goryeo were unhappy was that they could not deduct a portion of them.
"The stupid nobles of Goryeo, they understand that people's hearts are priceless." The general general who received the report called his subordinates: "Go on, this is the reward from Lord Haisibai of the Ming Dynasty. Don't blame me for being rude to be polite, and then pick out a few loyal people and give one more reward."
"Yes, I understand!" The dock manager stood up very seriously and answered.
A shrewd official from the Nanjing Metropolitan Department naturally understood the significance of more than 100,000 people here to win people's hearts.
The highest person received more than forty taels of silver, and the most unchanged person also received a reward of five taels of silver. Of course, coupled with the difference in prices, Haisi paid not as much as the books, and the merchants selling goods here were also affiliated with Haisi.
Seeing his subordinates going out to do business, Maoshan General Manager said to himself: "I hope I can add another 30% of the ore next year!"
After being deliberately spread by many people, more than 100,000 people were directly and indirectly benefiting, but millions of Koreans were shocked.
These white-famous cranes will naturally play a full set. Just the mining area is not enough, and Hanyang City cannot be spared.
The porcelain workshop has nothing to do with the white crane, but each person has a 20-foot thin white hemp that is the intention of the Ming Dynasty.
However, it was not directly handed over to these craftsmen. As for whether it could be handed over to these people, Bai Minghe and the officials of the Ming Dynasty would never care about it, but the number was clearly spread.
The workshops of the Ming people are very special.
But there is special. Because the Korean nobles deliberately kept it secret, it is difficult to find out if they want to inquire.
The Ming Dynasty itself is richer than Goryeo, which is well known to everyone in Goryeo.
Not only in Goryeo, there are also people who receive New Year's rewards in the four ports of Wadao. The small Wadao had a population of 14 million at the beginning of the Warring States Period in Japan, and of course there are also records that it is more than 16 million. But one thing is certain, the place here is not big, but there are a lot of people.
Of course, the Japanese were very frugal. Even the general's main meal was just a fish, a bowl of rice, a few pickles and a bowl of soup. This was already considered a luxury.
But the real luxury is even more different.
Keelung Port prisoner war camp!
The Japanese broke ships were basically sunk, and the rest of the Ming people left behind were not favored. Even inland river boats, there were problems with slow speed and low loading. However, among these Japanese sailors, there were a large number of very excellent sailors, as well as a large number of people who had long experience in living on the coast.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the captured Japanese people miss homesick.
But they knew clearly that they were prisoners of war, so it would be great if they could survive.
The two brothers Yang Xin and Yang Yi were in charge of the business here, and they were responsible for the prisoner-of-war camp with hundreds of people. There were also five thousand soldiers from the Fujian Metropolitan Division stationed outside. If there was danger, the Fujian Metropolitan Division could send heavy troops to arrive within two days.
Prisoners of war are not used as coolies, so the prisoners of war who stay here do not understand them very well.
For so long, they have been running here with heavy objects on their backs, climbing the masts standing above the flat, constantly editing Zhang Fan, Shufan, etc.
Slowly, many people were taken away. I heard that the first batch was sent to the mining area for work, and the second batch was sent to the dock for work. There were about 30,000 people left behind, and it can be said that all of them were relatively excellent.
The best one hundred people were called into the main business area.
"This meal was ordered by Lord Bai. I will give you excellent trainees!" Yang Xin clapped his hands, and the servant came in with a large food box. There was a serving on the small table in front of each of them, and there was a large table in the middle, which was filled with food on a huge plate.
The word sushi originated from the island of Wa, and initially it was covered with rice with sour fish after salt pressure.
But the sashimi represented by the word sashimi originated from the Zhou Dynasty in China.
The modern sushi platter of Baiming Tsurumi was found in the later period of Oedo. It is a product of sushi streaming. It was previously a box sushi school in Osaka.
Holding sushi can be as gorgeous as it is, and colorful sushi forms a beautiful pattern.
In front of each Japanese, there are ten different sushis with five different types.
Vinegar rice, soy sauce that is not available at all on the Japanese, and green mustard that the Japanese have never seen before. Although it is produced from the Japanese, the Japanese still do not know the use of this thing, especially the deliciousness after adding soy sauce.
Just looking at it makes people feel delicious, but none of the 100 Japanese dares to take action.
For them, the previous meals of these Japanese people were far better than those they had eaten in their hometown. This time, the meal was difficult to achieve in the palace or the general's mansion.
"Our Lord Bai's favorite sea salmon and tuna, your lunch is ordered by Lord Bai this time. Let's eat it!" Yang Xin signaled that these Japanese people could start eating.
A Japanese man came out and knelt on the ground. He didn't understand why he gave himself such expensive food.
I have never seen a meal from the Ming people, but it is absolutely unimaginable that such a meal would be needed by the Japanese island.
"Don't want your life, but your talents."
