Sweep the World

To say something very unpleasant, if Han people refuse to accept foreign women, I don't know how many people have to be bachelors for a lifetime, or it is common for people to marry another 13 or 14-year-old Han daughter at the age of 40 or 50.

There has always been a big gap between the ratio of men and women between Han people. Since the nine years of Yuanshuo, the country’s wars seem to be to open up frontiers and expand territories, but in fact, no one is embarrassed to say that they are carrying out population plunder.

The official opening of various countries outside the country was only short of the announcement that "predation can be proved". The Han people first rushed into the Indo-China Peninsula and caught the aliens one by one. The male aliens must be slaves, and the female aliens suffered. It's much more complicated.

There are a lot of yellow people in Indochina, but there are even more dark-skinned people over there.

Speaking of which, Han people are quite capable of accepting dark skin.

Those who can keep their skin fair are high-ranking officials and nobles. The common people need to work daily. They will turn dark when exposed to the sun for a long time. The people do not have much resistance to accepting dark-skinned foreign women.

"There is no shortage of (female) slaves from the Indochina Peninsula in the minister's house." Ji Chang said with a very satisfied expression: "The men over there are very unbearable, but the women are actually pretty good."

Men in Indochina are basically too lazy to die, while women are very diligent.

Han people never look at their appearance when marrying a wife, but to see whether their wives can take care of the family. They found that the Indochina woman they got was a wife who could manage a house, even if their facial features were different from that of a Han woman, their hearts were gratified.

Liu Yan was actually quite speechless. He knew that the male monkeys of later generations were indeed very unbearable. He didn't expect to be so unbearable if they weren't modern. It turned out to be like this in ancient times.

"The minister has asked his ministers to conduct an investigation." Ji Chang decided to use data to speak: "The survey shows that more than 90% of the people are satisfied, and only 10% are dissatisfied. Dissatisfaction means that some customs are different."

Is that a cold joke? Liu Yan was happy, and the ministers who came to give thanks also laughed cooperatively "haha".

The language barrier between Han and foreign women has never been a problem. In fact, even if the Han people have different pronunciations in ten miles and different customs in a hundred miles, it is absolutely common, so it is not an obstacle that foreign women do not understand Chinese. The customs are for Han people. Vital.

Today is the second day of the first lunar month of the thirteenth year of Yuanshuo. It has been a night after proclaiming the emperor and awarding a reward. Whether Liu Yan is willing to reward, or whether the reward meets his expectations, the act of thanking you is definitely necessary.

One after another, people came to the palace to thank you, and according to the procedure, Liu Yan needed to set up a banquet.

Thirty-seven Hou Ye, one after the other, came over to thank you. Now they are arranged on the ring seat of Zhangtai, sitting in the shape of an arch guard Liu Yan.

During the New Year, not only people need to rest, but officials also have a one-month holiday.

The people don’t have much time to be happy. Depending on the family situation, some people with hardship and self-motivated families will start to work after three days of rest.

Officials have a one-month vacation, but in fact many officials do not take consecutive vacations. After the ninth day of the new year, they are in rotation with their colleagues. A few officials are on duty as usual after the ninth lunar day.

Everyone in the world has time to rest, but Liu Yan does not have a one-day holiday. It is like having a banquet today is also part of the work.

Liu Yan was hosting a banquet for his ministers, and Cui Wan was also hosting a banquet.

Cui Wan is dealing with the regular wives of Hou Ye, and things that he didn't do in the past will be done today.

The so-called thing is to give life to them, Cui Wan will give them the life of the queen as a queen, and the women who have the life can also receive the salary every month.

"Indochina peninsula is a treasure house!" Xu Zheng had a hangover last night and entered Miyagi again after a short sleep. If he didn't wear incense clothes, he would definitely smell of alcohol: "It's a perfect place!"

Drinking a few cups during the Chinese New Year is a certain thing, and it is more than just a few cups when you encounter a happy event. One of the thirty-seven marquis has drunk a lot last night. If it is not the next day, you still need to go to the palace to thank you. Drink to the point of drunk Ning Tincture.

Only a few of them did not wear incense clothing, and one of them was Ran Min.

"That's your majesty's favor." Although Ran Min was full of alcohol and stayed up all night last night, he was very energetic: "Everyone who rushes past has made a fortune!"

The crowd laughed "haha" again.

The Indochina Peninsula is the first paradise for the Han people after they stepped out of the old land of the Han family. The army entered first, and the army later became the Dinghai Shenzhen.

The so-called Dinghaishenzhen is never moved lightly, otherwise it would be cheaper for some bold people if it could be called Dinghaishenzhen.

Army plunder is a mode of confiscation and redistribution, while private individuals need to be taxed.

The army’s distribution model is basically 60% confiscated, and a certain soldier can be allocated as much as 40%. Soldiers who have not married will allocate high-quality foreign women according to the amount of credit. In fact, if there is no credit, it can be used far less than the civilian population. The price is purchased in the army.

Private predatory teams have relatively complicated taxation methods. Luxury goods must be paid as much as 80% of the tax while non-luxury goods are taxed 30%. At the same time, food items are not taxed.

In fact, the high tax of luxury goods is a very reasonable thing. They can sell for a big price, and the buyer will be rich. An ordinary item can be sold for 150 baht, but a luxury item can be sold. Selling tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of five baht, even if they are charged 80% of the tax, the seller can still get five baht far more than ordinary goods.

The government will set high taxes on luxury goods, which is actually to curb and crack down on luxury goods transactions.

The level of civilization in the Indo-China Peninsula is not high. When the Han people were plundering there, most of the time they could not get anything that was too valuable. They could get luxury goods or they just got away with **** and luck. Or some other indigenous people who built houses with rough stones, or the indigenous village just next to the village where they can pan for gold, or it is really impossible to grab any luxury goods.

In the early stage, the army and private plundering teams could still have good material harvests, but the latter were basically robbed, and their eyes were fixed on the indigenous population.

Relevant data shows that after the Han people stormed the Indochina Peninsula, they created more than one million and five thousand baht in a few years of economic income, which was based on the discovery of many emerald mines, gold mines and many precious woods.

It can be said that as long as the Han people go to the Indochina Peninsula, none of them return home in poverty.

Economic gains are only one of them. The looting of a large number of people is actually more valued by the state.

The labor captured from the Indo-China Peninsula has eased the domestic labor shortage, and it is relatively important to solve the marriage problem of at least 300,000 bachelors.

Taxes must be paid. Without the power of the country behind them, it would be impossible for them to rob them unscrupulously.

Private individuals must not say why the fruits of their labor should be divided into profits. The situation is that the country's army is opened, and there is also a powerful country behind it.

If the country is not strong and robs other countries, believe it or not the country that has been robbed will make a complaint, will your country send someone to arrest and give an explanation?

With the example of the Indochina Peninsula, it is the reason why there has not been much opposition to the subsequent opening of wars.

Later, the Western Regions is another model. The state comes forward to organize, with the regular army as the auxiliary, and the civilian power as the main force.

"The example of the Western Regions is quite good." Xu Zheng is in charge of military affairs and can see a lot of data: "The expenditure of the national money is only to carry out the necessary arms and clothing unification, and the preliminary equipment. The investment is only 15 million (5). Baht money)."

If an army is sent, the preparation for a unit of 50,000 troops will not be only 15 million and 5 baht, but at least 80 million and 5 baht, or even more.

Eighty-five million baht will only be the first batch of expenditures, and there will be many subsequent expenditures. Depending on the progress of the war and whether it goes smoothly, it will not be too strange to spend hundreds of millions of baht to complete the battle of the Western Regions. matter.

The simplest example is that Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty expedition to the Western Regions three times. The first time he saved some money and only cost 80 million and 5 baht, the second time was increased to 250 million baht, and the third time it was more than 300 million. Five baht. However, the number of troops sent repeatedly will not exceed 20,000 at most (not counting the people who bring their own dry food).

When the Han family started a national war, it always looked at the profit. Even if the Western Han Dynasty fought the Xiongnu for revenge, it also paid attention to the expenditure and gains. He said that Emperor Wu of the Han was a poor soldier. Why not take a look at how many people enthusiastically brought their own food Follow the army on the expedition, why not investigate the decline in domestic meat prices after the start of the Han-Hungarian war.

"The data that can be seen..." Ji Chang was not going to be a military platform, and said fairly: "Although it is not more rewarding than the attack on the Indochina Peninsula, it also has a gain of 340,000 (five baht)."

Ji Chang said that the profit is not included in the net profit of the land, but is to count the subsequent slave trade.

At that moment, Liu Yan looked at Huan Wen, and then everyone's eyes were on Huan Wen.

"The Expeditionary War (Han-Gui War) is just preliminary data." Ji Chang is still the prime minister, and he doesn't want to look at some of the data. Four million million."

Huan Wen immediately showed a reserved smile.

Ah San was so wealthy that even the Romans and Persians were jealous. The Han army only estimated from the capture of Fahrenheit City to reach 28 billion. If the local area is not a big city, there will be more captures, depending on the nature of the region. , Some of the gold-rich Asan city pools are very profitable.

"Four million million is only an estimate of 40% of the gains." Ji Chang couldn't help but look at Xie An, who would become the official book of the Ministry of Households. It will be very busy if you get it."

It also caused a burst of "haha" laughter, and while they laughed, they would still feel happy in their hearts. After all, their Hou State is located in Asan Continent.

It is estimated that the four achievements have a value of 40 billion. It does not mean that the next 60% will have a value of 60 billion. Maybe the next 60% will not even have an estimate of 10 billion, but they are very willing to go for something better. Think about the direction.

Liu Yan's Han country has never been short of money, and it can even be said that there is too much money.

Before looting gold and silver from the Wa Islands, there would be no shortage of gold if there was such a BUG as Liu Yan. With the gold and silver on the Wa Islands, we would obtain wealth from the defeated countries again and again. In fact, if it hadn’t been controlled by the government all the time. Excessive precious metals are circulated to the private sector, and the need for a gold coin to buy a steamed bun should have happened long ago.

Money is money because it can buy goods.

Once gold floods, gold will not be more valuable than iron, and even the value of gold will be much lower than iron, at least iron can be made into various tools and weapons.

All kinds of small talk all morning, when the thirty-seven masters left Miyagi together near noon, their wives would not go home until the evening.

Stayed till night? That is the custom of going back to her natal family on the second day of the first lunar month.

How did the custom of returning to your natal home on the second day of the first month come from? It had to be in the Ming Dynasty, and the origin of the custom was given by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Two important customs in China, eating moon cakes and going back to her natal family are all related to Lao Zhu.

When the ministers went back, Liu Yan started to be busy again.

For Liu Yan, who combined the emperor and the emperor, there are too many of the most important and complicated things during the New Year, especially today there is one more proclaiming emperor.

Every year some important sacrifices are also one of the things that the emperor must do, but Liu Yan's situation is special. The link of worshiping the ancestral temple can be omitted, only the sacrifice to Xuanyuan Temple.

The sacrifice was done on the same day that Liu Yan, along with the hundred officials and the high-ranking officials, was given the rewards.

What Liu Yan needs to be busy today is to deal with the choices of countries offering beauties, the most important of which are Rome and Sassanid.

"How are the things I asked to do?"

"Back to your Majesty, there are initial results."

The current treasury of the Han Empire is in a dilemma that the money is too much to know how to spend. In the short term, large-scale wars of extermination will not be launched. It is imperative to maintain peace with the countries and open trade ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Then with Rome The marriage of Sassanid is also a matter of course.

Liu Yan began to read some information from the investigation, all of which were rumors about the marriage partner.

Marriage is bound to take place. Fortunately, there is a choice. Before looking at her appearance, we must first understand her past. Since she did not go directly to her country to collect information, the people who came with her in the past can only spy one-sided. , But it is still better than not doing it well.

Liu Yan looked down, picked up a pen and sketched on the list.

The "X" is naturally eliminated.

Those with an "O" are on the candidate list.

If she is passed, she will conduct a round of face selection, and it must be Liu Yan who looks like it before proceeding to the next round.

"I'm the first to open great diplomatic relations, right?"

Liu Yan made a mistake again. The first emperor to use "stick diplomacy" was Emperor Shi. He not only accepted the beauties of the Six Nations from Zhuxia, but also some exotic beauties.
