The wealth of the Japanese army's Ryukyu is difficult to transport for several ships. It is not the exaggerated words of Eunuch Wei, nor is it the father-in-law who pays out of his own pocket to please the emperor, but the fact.

Although Kasuga Yamasaki sent all the big profits of the Ryukyu sea trade over the past ten years to the Honya Shimazu clan, the location of the Juritoshi of the All Kingdoms, and there are thousands of merchant ships transferred there every year. Among them, there are not only merchant ships from Japan, but also merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty and the West.

These merchant ships brought huge wealth to Ryukyu, not only supporting the Shang family regime, but also supporting the Satsuma vassal. The specific figures of Eunuch Wei have not yet been found out. However, according to Shangxian's confession, the three officials who were stationed in Ryukyu to collect maritime taxes last year alone collected as much as 600,000 taels of silver. This does not include the tax collection of Ryukyu on its own (the Ryukyu government led by the monk Juyin).

Conservatively estimated that the annual share of sea tax in Ryukyu should be around one million taels, which is equivalent to one-quarter of the national tax in the Ming Dynasty.

As the Supreme Emperor of Ryukyu and the supreme commander of the Japanese army stationed in Ryukyu, Huashan would not fail to make any money even if he was loyal to the Satsuma vassal.

My father-in-law usually adopts the "input method" when doing things, just like he is loyal to the emperor and never wants to put his official family in his account. However, over the years, various entertainment expenses, activity expenses, self-paying expenses, cheap maintenance expenses, home settlement expenses, entertainment expenses, carriage and horse-drawing expenses, and sustainable reinvestment expenses...

With hundreds of expenses of various sizes, my father-in-law's personal annual income also starts at 100,000 taels. Therefore, it is certain that it is forbidden to use my father-in-law to save the belly of Huashan with his heart, and to be rich for a long time.

The commander of the Guard Division, Cao Wenyao, received an order to plunder all the wealth "robbed" by the Japanese army in the Ryukyu Islands, and then hand over the "dedication" to the base camp to His Majesty the Emperor according to the "Eight 2" model.

The secret order is codenamed "Juzi No. 1".

The whole meaning is to dig three feet into the ground.

To this end, Cao Wenyao specially mobilized the Sixth Infantry Regiment to carry out the "Juzi No. 1" mission because Li Yanzhao, the captain of the Sixth Regiment, was a talent that Eunuch Wei focused on cultivating and had high hopes for.

In the words of Eunuch Wei, Comrade Li Yanzhao is a rare talent among the imperial army, both civil and military, but his small head is filled with infinite wisdom.

In the 45th year of Wanli, the first article "Holding the banner of military thought of Eunuch Wei" published in the first issue after Zhengdan, "Holding high the banner of Wei's military thought" was written by Li Yanzhao.

After seeing this article, Eunuch Wei happily ordered: Comrade Yan Zhao was not only an outstanding general of the emperor's personal army, but also the best warrior of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

There is an inscription in the Imperial Military Merit Hall established by the Taipei Guard - "Learn from Comrade Li Yanzhao!"

This inscription is written by Eunuch Wei.

It is said that Huang Zunsu, editor-in-chief of Huang Ming Daily, had privately asked Eunuch Wei who could inherit his great cause in the future. My father-in-law blurted out that it was Li Yanzhao. This comrade's ideological and theoretical work is very solid, his mind is open-minded, and he knows how to learn and apply it. More importantly, he is very young and has strong plasticity and creativity. If our family really retires in the future, we will be at ease to hand it over to him by the Imperial Army.

The Guards Division conducted an ideological rectification in the second half of last year. This ideological rectification was based on the "three studies and one practice" proposed by Li Yanzhao.

Such a big celebrity is naturally the best candidate for the "Juzi No. 1" mission. Half of the officers and soldiers are the Sixth Infantry Regiment of the children of Eunuch Wei's hometown, which is also trustworthy.

The "82 Model" was the first time that Eunuch Wei proposed.

That is, when fighting against Japan, 20% of the trophy was seized were left to reward soldiers from the expedition, so as to encourage the imperial army officers and soldiers to march towards the Japanese land with a more courageous attitude.

Eighty percent of the handover was the one mentioned by my father-in-law in the secret disclosure that he said, "There are countless ships."

A strong sense of morality and mission did not allow Eunuch Wei to fill his personal bags and withhold the filial piety to the emperor. Therefore, he asked Wei Laojiu to prepare a lucky ship to ship damaged and incomplete gold, silver and even copper.

"Ensure that the coins are intact in the circulation field and that the interests of the people are not damaged is what every public servant of our empire should do."

Eunuch Wei emphasized this.

The "Juzi No. 1" mission was soon carried out by the Sixth Infantry Regiment. The officers and soldiers carefully searched the areas where the Japanese army had been stationed. They also opened the mezzanines of the toilet to see to ensure that no penny was left out.

The bodies of the Japanese army who died in battle were also examined one by one. Even when conditions permit, the officers and soldiers salvaged the Sun corpses floating on the sea and took off the gold and silver objects from the corpse.

Gold, silver, copper, iron, silk cloth, food weapons, as long as they are used by the Imperial Army and generate economic value, they are collected by the officers and soldiers.

Even the clothes worn by Japanese generals such as Kazuo Kawayama and used utensils were packed.

"Sell what can be sold, and give what can't be sold to the poor people."

After listening to Li Yanzhao's report, Eunuch Wei expressed his approval of his work, and further emphasized that he should collect more daily necessities and transport them back by ship to those people who had just moved from Fujian and Zhejiang to Taiwan.

Although Fujian and Zhejiang began to mobilize coastal poor people to move to Taiwan two years ago, and the base camp also deployed according to the requirements of their father-in-law and cooperated with some commercial banks, the supply of materials in Taiwan is still difficult. Many newly moved poor people even had one or two quilts in their family, and they did not have any decent clothes.

The development of Taiwan is destined to be a long-term system project, so Eunuch Wei must ensure the "immigrant" daily necessities, even if it is unconditional support and investment.

Therefore, it can save some things and save some.

The clothes worn by the Japanese army, the quilts covered, used bowls, etc. can be transported back to the immigrants.

"The searched for a lot of weapons, including iron spears and long spears..."

Li Yanzhao asked Eunuch Wei how to deal with enemy weapons, whether to dismantle and exploit the weapons or send them to the Ryukyu people.

"We can consider letting those merchants bid. After all, if the maritime affairs want to grow, they cannot do without them, and the Imperial Army cannot provide them with protection forever. They need to have self-defense ability, or even have separate offensive ability..."

Eunuch Wei waved his hand.

"Let the merchants have the ability to attack alone?"

Li Yanzhao savored these words carefully. According to the Ming Dynasty, isn’t this illegal? Moreover, if merchants have the ability to attack separately, wouldn’t they become pirates and Japanese pirates again?

"What's wrong? Don't be careful about businessmen, please let them go..."

Eunuch Wei proposed that the Imperial Army of the Ming Dynasty and the merchants had a win-win relationship, and the prosperity of the Huangming was also inseparable from merchants and business.

"The ocean is huge, the world is huge, and there are still many places in this world that the Imperial Army cannot reach for the moment, but Huang Ming will eventually go to the world. Therefore, letting the merchants boldly do it is in line with our actual national conditions and in line with the actual interests of the Imperial Army..."

After Li Yanzhao wrote down his series of speeches in Xiaolu Book, his father-in-law told Li Yanzhao another thing, that is, he had already written to the emperor, requesting the abolition of the Ryukyu regime and changing Ryukyu into a prefecture or county under the Ming Dynasty.

"It belongs to Taiwan, and temporarily belongs to the Chief Military Command Department, which is directly under the headquarters. Well, but do you think it is better to call it Ryukyu Prefecture (county), or what is it?"

Eunuch Wei always felt that the word "Ryukyu" was not nice, and wanted to hear Li Yanzhao's opinions.

"Well..."
