Chapter 467
Driven by the navy officers and soldiers, the Japanese beggars who flocked had to disperse.
But some of them were donated some money by some Han immigrants.
After all, many Han immigrants are honest farmers. Except for those who were recruited, most of them are people who would rather starve to the point of selling their sons and daughters than rebelling. Give alms or two.
Otherwise, these Japanese beggars would not rush over when they saw the Han immigrants appear.
Obviously experience tells them that most Han people are very kind and will give them money.
The local Wa people in the Wa Kingdom, whose population density is larger than that of Ming Dynasty, originally competed for survival more intensely than the production competition of the Han people, so in comparison, the Han people are indeed more gentle and kind, and there will be many Han people who will take the initiative to give alms.
However, following what the naval military officer said, Gao Zijia immediately straightened his waist with the Yanling Saber, and felt that he was indeed more noble than these Japanese slaves.
Gao Zijia followed the navy officers and soldiers into Nagasaki City, and then he saw that Nagasaki City was no different from the Han towns in Middle Earth, and many of the shouts were also in Chinese.
There is a reason why the cries are mainly Chinese.
The reason is that the main daily consumer groups in Nagasaki are not the Japanese, but the Han people who come here to garrison and their families, the Han people who come here to do business and their families, and the Han people who migrated here to farm.
Most of the Japanese are doing the most menial work, coupled with the large population and serious involution, and the lowest income, so their spending power is limited.
In addition, the Ming court intends to promote Ming Mandarin here.
Therefore, the cries of selling are mainly Chinese.
It didn't take long for Gao Zijia to be assigned a piece of ten acres of high-quality fertile land in Yuanjing's mansion, the Chief Secretary of Dongying, Ming Dynasty.
Yuanjing Mansion was originally the territory of Saga County in Kyushu of the Japanese Kingdom. Later, because Naoshige Naoshima, the feudal lord, participated in the war against the Ming Dynasty and conquered the Japanese Kingdom, Saga County was occupied by the Ming Dynasty as a punishment for Ryuzo Temple.
The reason why it was named Yuanjing Mansion was because Zhu Yijun specially changed the name of the place to Qi Jiguang in order to encourage more Han people to actively expand in the future.
The land of Yuanjing Mansion is fertile, otherwise it would not be the land governed by a 35-stone daimyo.
Therefore, there are many fertile fields here.
It’s just that after Daming occupied this place, he refused to rent the land here to the Japanese, in order to gather the Japanese to serve and mine, and at the same time to give the land to the Han people in China, so as to solve the problem of more people and less land in the country, and facilitate farming. Tax collection and Sinicization.
Therefore, the original landowners and cultivators here have basically been either eliminated, or driven to mining areas or to serve in some places, such as participating in port construction or something.
But now, the arable land here is basically abandoned, or it is cultivated by exiled criminals from China or Han people who came here for other reasons.
this day.
A rainstorm has just ended.
Gao Zijia came to his field again, and after seeing that the wooden sign with his name, family information, and the number of acres he had earned had indeed been nailed to his own fertile land, he happily rubbed the wooden sign for a long time.
He really didn't expect that the imperial court would really grant him farmland, and it was such a good farmland.
"I finally have my own field again!"
Gao Zijia, who had already sold his five acres of Susukida due to the drought, couldn't help but muttered for a while, and then tears came to his eyes.
"Fellow, do you want a Japanese slave? I can help you work when you are busy, and sleep with you when you are free. I can be your mother-in-law and maidservant. It only costs five dollars!"
As soon as Gao Zijia got the land, the dentists from the dental shop approached him.
It is obvious that the people in these tooth shops are all good people, and they know that Han people like Gao Zijia who have been allocated land need labor and consumption power the most.
"Look, isn't it very watery?"
As he spoke, the man pointed to the Japanese girl who had brought him and said to Gao Zijia again.
Gao Zijia glanced at the Japanese woman, then at the hills and streams next to his own field, and then asked, "Can you endure hardship?"
"Of course I can endure hardship! I was born as a poor Japanese slave!"
"It's not difficult for you to raise her, just give her two meals a day."
The toothy man laughed and said, "Will you show kindness? It's not easy for her parents to bring her here from Satsuma. If she didn't run fast, she would have been forced into a prostitute by the Shimadzu family!"
Nowadays, the Wa Kingdom is in the Warring States Period, and the wars are constantly raging. The big names of the vassal states do not pay attention to recuperation, but instead oppress the common people.
Therefore, Ming Dongying is the most peaceful place here, so many Japanese civilians will flee here as slaves or be sold here as slaves.
In short.
The Warring States Period in Japan, which is of great interest to later generations, was not a good era for ordinary Japanese at that time.
According to records, some Japanese did not hesitate to become slaves of Western Yi missionaries in order to avoid the war, and the number of Japanese slaves of Western Yi missionaries reached [-] at one time.
Less gossip.
It is precisely because of this background that the Japanese country is now, so the Japanese girl also stretched out two fingers, as if saying that it is enough to give her two meals.
"Is there a tide?"
Gao Zijia asked.
"Come, you can give birth."
The tooth man replied.
Gao Zijia nodded after hearing this, and asked again: "Can she speak our official language?"
"I can understand a little bit, but I can't speak."
"Just because I haven't trained for long."
"If you can say it, it will definitely be more expensive."
"But she is stupid, she can't learn how to speak, so she has to sell first."
"Birth will not be affected."
The tooth man replied.
Then he took out five coins and gave them to the man.
The man took the money and left here.
Gao Zijia took out a piece of mustache from his bag and gave it to the Japanese woman: "Are you hungry?"
The Japanese girl hurriedly kowtowed, took it, and ate it.
Gao Zijia smiled when he saw this, and continued to serve his Xintian, and said to the Japanese girl:
"You Japanese people, you still don't know how to raise fields!"
"The field is so easy to divert water, but it has not been plowed with wooden oxen, and the sesame seed cake and radish seed cake have not been sprinkled. In addition, this field is obviously cold in soil, so it should be ashes."
As Gao Zijia spoke, he dipped some soil from the field, licked it at the corner of his mouth, and said, "I have to sprinkle some lime on the seedlings when transplanting, because the soil is as sour as vinegar mud!"
Gao Zijia has been doing farm work with his parents since he was [-] or [-] years old. Like many Han farmers, he has rich farming experience and skills.
Just because it is not easy for producers to get rich through labor, Gao Zijia was still a refugee before that.
But in any case, after Gao Zijia came to the country of Wa and became a new owner farmer, he was indeed much better than the local farmers of the country of Wa in terms of farming techniques.
After all, behind him is the technological accumulation of thousands of years of farming civilization.
But the country of Japan has been in the Warring States period for these years, and there is no great unification. The last large-scale farming innovation was in the Song Dynasty. The farming technology brought by some Han survivors who came to the country of Japan in the Song Dynasty improved the farming technology, so the land of Japan is in the field of farming technology. It is lagging behind Daming.
That's right.
Different farming empires in this era have differences in farming technology. There are farming empires or slash-and-burn farming, while some farming empires have already appeared in compound agriculture, and have begun to use primitive fertilizer technology and soil improvement technology.
Daming is the latter.
Gao Zijia said that the sesame seed cakes and radish seed cakes were in the field, and after research in later generations, it was discovered that they were used to supplement ammonium and potassium fertilizers.
Moreover, during the Ming Dynasty, farmers also summed up the gap between various plant fertilizers.
According to the records in "Nai Li" in "Tian Gong Kai Wu", the Ming people have summed up seven kinds of plant grains that can be processed as chemical fertilizers, including sesame seeds, radish seeds, rapeseed seeds, tung tree seeds, camphor tree seeds, black cypress Seed, cotton seed, and also think, the fattening effect of sesame seed, radish seed is the best, secondly rapeseed, camphor tree seed, black cypress seed, cotton seed effect are the worst.
As for the wooden ox, it was a new type of agricultural tool that appeared in the Ming Dynasty at this time. Because it had hooks, pulleys and other parts, it could save manpower and cultivate more finely.
Just as the appearance of Quyuanli made the agricultural economy more developed, the wooden ox that appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty in history also made the agriculture of Daming a lot more advanced.
It goes without saying that the farmers of the Ming Dynasty in this era knew to burn the bones of birds and beasts to supplement the phosphate fertilizer.
Liming is to mediate the acidity and alkalinity of the soil.
In short.
The farming civilization represented by the Ming Dynasty is indeed much more advanced than the native farming civilization of the Wa Kingdom.
The biggest problem for Zhu Yijun to make profits through external expansion is not that Ming’s production technology is not advanced enough, but that the long-term self-sufficiency makes it easy for carnivores to forget to be aggressive, and they don’t feel that they have a mission to expand their advanced civilization. Actively abandon many technologies, such as ocean-going navigation technology.
Gao Zijia and other Han people migrated here, not only to solve the problem of more people and less land in the country, but also to help the land here to be able to produce more food.
