One Piece of Song Dynasty

Erniang is also a farmer's girl living in Mutsu Province. She used to make a living by fishing. Since Beiting City was built, her family was the first batch of Japanese immigrants to move to Beiting City. His father is now a police officer in Beiting City. I worked as a low-level patrol officer in the bureau, earning Chinese dollars per month, and I also had a small courtyard in the city.

Er Niang was also tricked into working in the farmland outside the city, boiling water and cooking, and earned two hundred Chinese dollars a month.

Kono looked at himself. His upper body was just a piece of thin and worn linen, and his lower body was in shorts. Compared with the handsome second mother in a floral dress, she was in heaven and earth.

Sitting silently on the ridge of the field, Kono ate a big meal. In the blink of an eye, most of the meal the size of a washbasin was gone. At this time, he desperately wanted a surname, and then went to the city to make money. Now he cultivates his own rice every day. There is no need to worry about farming land and food, but there is no source of income.

"Kono" At this time, a female voice came to his ears, and he knew naturally that it was Er Niang's voice. She sat down next to Kono and generously took out a pair of straw sandals: "I made this up. You can't do anything in the world." shoe"

"Yes." Kono felt a little shy for a moment. He didn't know what to say. After all, Er Niang was from the city, and their identities were very different.

"I'm attracted to you, and my father is also attracted to you." Erniang was not as reserved as the women he usually came into contact with. Instead, she said boldly: "My family was also a farmer before, and then we moved to the city. You are tall, and my father hopes If you come into my house, I will also have tall people in the future."

Kono turned his head and looked at this bold woman. She seemed to have more contact with the Han people. Her words were more coherent, which was different from those dull farm women.

"Is it true that I want to join your family?" It doesn't matter if I can be with the person I like and marry my second mother-in-law. He, Kono, is not a nobleman, so he is naturally happy. The second mother's words make Kono very excited.

Er Niang whispered in his ear: "Of course it is true, and I also heard from my father that the factory outside the city will be expanded in a while. The expansion of the factory will definitely recruit more people."

Kono asked: "Aren't the two mothers who go to the factory Han Chinese?"

Erniang whispered: "I heard from my father that the government has decided to recruit people from us this time.

As long as you are selected, you can work in the factory. The salary in the factory can be as little as Chinese dollars a month. The salary is more than twice that of my father. With money, you can buy a house in the city and become a city citizen. People have a surname and a household registration number."

For a moment, He Ye was moved.

Although land in Beiting Mansion is divided between Han and Japanese, there are still differences between people in the city and people outside the city. Not only are there differences between people in the city and people outside the city, but there are also differences between people in the city. The Han people in the city are naturally the same. After all, they all dress and speak the same way. The Japanese people in the city also want to become Han Chinese, so they are learning Chinese, wearing Han robes, and becoming Han masters.

Kono said excitedly: "Er Niang, can I sign up to go to the factory now?"

Erniang smiled and said: "Well, what I've been waiting for is what you said. This is what my father asked me to ask you. Now it's fine. I can go back and give my father an answer. Don't worry, I'll leave this matter to you." My father."

Kono nodded and said, "Yeah, okay."

As time goes by, these Japanese immigrants, like other Han immigrants, take root, sprout, sprout branches, and grow leaves in this desolate and remote land of Beiting Mansion. One day, it will flourish. , full of fruits, and will become part of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

As the immigrants gradually settled in Beiting Mansion, the local aborigines located deep in the dense forests of Beiting Mansion, under Huzi Kun's series of coercive and tempting conditions, became more and more closely connected with the government.

According to Li Xin's plan, the Tang army implemented a strategy of fighting and appeasing these Ezo natives. Most of the Ezo tribes accepted Li Xin's trade terms and sent people to Li Xin's trading yard outside Beiting City to sell animal skins, game, horns, jade and other items, and then exchange them for sea salt, ironware, and cloth produced by the government. and other necessary daily necessities.

Of course, there were also a very small number of Ezo tribes who were hostile to the Tang army. They gathered in small groups, stole property, plundered livestock, and even injured people, causing a lot of trouble to the Tang army.

Li Xin's policy towards these stubborn Eni tribes was that since they had chosen to be enemies of the Tang Dynasty, they would all be killed without mercy. All the captured Eni tribes would have their heads chopped off and sent to various mountains and forests. At the edge, a Jingguan was built to intimidate anyone who dared to intrude, and to serve as a warning.

Li Xin's policy quickly achieved results. Just two months later, the Ezo people who came to attack Datang's territory were no longer visible, but more and more Ezo people came to do business with Datang. What makes Hu Xikun even more delighted is that at the end of September this year, an Ezo tribe actually led the remaining people of the entire tribe because they were defeated in a tribal war. In order to avoid being killed by the enemy tribe, People, request enclosed.

When he heard that this tribe had come to seek refuge in Neifu, Huzi Kun laughed while stroking his hands.

"Okay, according to the emperor's plan, the naturalization of the island's indigenous people will start with this tribe." Huzi Kun said with bright eyes.

"Master Hu, you want to move them to live in Beiting City," Liu Zhengfei, the defense officer of Beiting Mansion, asked tentatively.

Hu Xikun shook his head and said: "No, if you just take in these three hundred natives of Ezo, you will not be able to establish your authority, let alone have an impact on other Ezo tribes. In my opinion, I need to do this for this Ezo tribe. , regain their tribal territory, and make other Ezo tribes awed by the power of our army. At the same time, we must force them to sign an attachment agreement, and use this as a breakthrough to absorb the other Ezo tribes in the future. A standard approach.”

Bearded Kun made up his mind and personally met with the leader of the tribe, expressed his condolences and hosted a banquet in honor of him.

When the leader of this tribe came to seek refuge with him in such a miserable state, it was beyond his surprise that Lord Hu from the Tang Dynasty could welcome him so warmly. He and all the tribesmen burst into tears of gratitude.

At the banquet, Huzi Kun raised his wine glass and said: "Since you have chosen to join the Tang Dynasty, you will be my subjects of the Tang Dynasty. I, the Tang Dynasty, have the obligation to protect you from being bullied. Of course, you also need to follow the ways of the Tang Dynasty." Come do something.”

The leader replied in broken Chinese: "Of course. As people of the Tang Dynasty, it is our duty to contribute to the Tang Dynasty. From now on, we will do whatever Mr. Hu asks us to do. Everything will be in accordance with Mr. Hu's instructions."

Hu Hukun nodded and said, "Well, after the banquet, we both will sign an agreement. After the agreement is signed, you will officially become citizens of the Tang Dynasty."
