Chapter 87 Do Japanese slaves really have gold and silver? next door.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help but nodded in approval.
The question Zhu Ping raised was the reason why he did not express his opinion.
If there is inexhaustible money and food.
Fighting is not difficult, just let fools do it.
But once the war started, the people's sentiments were turbulent, the government and the public were panicked, and the relationship between the various parties was not well balanced, and a big mess was bound to happen.
A hearty victory is not enough, and it certainly won't work without spoils of war.
Just when he was puzzled, Lin Che's magnetic voice sounded leisurely from next door, pulling him out of his thoughts and back to reality.
"good."
“If you can connect to these things, it means there is progress.”
Lin Che stretched and said calmly:
"Back to the original topic, pacify the world and balance resources."
"Taking more resources from other countries to strengthen ourselves is the general strategic direction of Ming Dynasty!"
"At this stage, Ming Dynasty is short of money, and even you know it."
"If you have a clear goal, everything will be easier!"
"Even though Japan Island is as big as a palm, it has extremely abundant gold and silver mines. Even if you look around the world, it is among the best."
"Isn't this exactly the resource that Ming Dynasty lacks?"
As soon as the words fell to the ground, there was silence.
Deathly silence.
Not only was Zhu Ming here unable to sit still, but even Zhu Yuanzhang, who never changed his expression even when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, also lost his composure in a rare act.
I saw him standing up suddenly, his movement was so big that even his chair fell to the side, his eyes were full of brilliance.
"This!"
"is this real?"
"Japan Island is just a small place. How can there be such a big gold or silver mine?"
"In such a vast land as our Ming Dynasty, there are only a handful of gold and silver mines!"
Zhu Biao also swallowed hard, and even the hand holding the pen couldn't help but tremble.
No matter in impressions or in relevant historical materials.
The description of Japanese islands is just one word: "poor", "poor", "poor", "poor" depends on China to support them, and "poor" all become Japanese pirates and live by robbery.
This is a well-known fact.
According to historical records, the golden seal of the king of Japan was given by Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Grant the golden seal and give the Japanese name!
Even China, which has a vast territory and abundant resources, is short of gold and silver.
When he fled to Mobei in the Yuan Dynasty, he took away a large amount of gold, silver and copper coins from the Central Plains.
As a result, the Ming Dynasty once fell into a "money shortage" since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and many things were stagnant and could not be started.
but.
A small Japanese island...is there really such a rich gold and silver mine?
The father and son looked at each other in blank dismay.
I was shocked beyond measure and felt that it was a fantasy.
I want to believe it, but I can’t believe it! ……
the other side.
"Mr. Lin!"
Zhu Ping's spirit was lifted and he suddenly stood up.
He grabbed Lin Che's arm and said excitedly: "You...you're not kidding me..."
"There are really gold and silver mines on this Japanese island..."
"You didn't lie to me, did you? Where did the small Japanese island come from so many gold and silver mines?"
"If the Japanese country really has so many gold and silver mines, why is there no record in the historical materials? How did you know about this?" "This is incredible?"
"Could it be that... sir, you have been to Japan?"
"Sir, did you just count on your fingers?"
Facing Zhu Chong's repeated questions, Lin Che smiled lightly, waved to him, motioned for him to sit down, and then said:
"Have I really never been to this Japanese country?"
"Ah? You haven't been there, so it's just a matter of mist, sir?"
Lin Che stretched out her chopsticks and touched Zhu Ping's head, then smiled and cursed: "You brat, we're not as evil as you think."
"Some things are recorded in historical materials, but it's a pity..."
"It's a pity that some crucial details have been ignored by the world, and no one takes these details to heart."
"Stereotypes are deeply ingrained and create inertia in thinking..."
"I always think that the Japanese country is a small island country with no resources at all. But I don't know that no matter how small a place is, there will be resources, and even these resources are surprisingly large."
Hearing this, Zhu Ming suppressed his excitement, but when he poured wine for Lin Che, his hands could not help but tremble and he spilled the wine on the table.
"In fact, when we open the history books, it is not difficult to find clues..."
Lin Che picked up the cup filled with wine and drank it all in one gulp.
To be honest, the wines brewed in ancient times had very low alcohol content, just like the rice wine of the previous life.
Lin Che could drink enough alcohol in her previous life, but drinking this low-alcohol alcohol again felt like drinking water.
After drinking the wine, he placed the wine cup on the table and continued:
"Japan is a country that respects the strong, and this country is very realistic. It will learn from anyone who is strong."
"During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Japanese pirates led a large army to invade our country, and were massacred by the Tang Dynasty!"
"Thus, Japan seemed to have turned into a dog with a broken back, lying obediently beside China for hundreds of years."
"For hundreds of years, the Japanese state has been a vassal state of China, paying tribute to China intermittently. During the chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, it still tried hard to maintain the master-servant relationship with China, between the suzerain state and the vassal state."
Speaking of it.
Zhu Fang thought of some historical knowledge taught to him by the great Confucians in the university hall.
During the Tang Dynasty, the Japanese country tried to invade China and launched a battle at Baijiangkou.
As a result, the 1000 Japanese pirates with more than 3000 warships were defeated by the Tang army with 170 men and [-] warships.
From then on, the Japanese state knelt very thoroughly and sent various envoys from the Tang Dynasty to China.
Even if the Tang Dynasty perished, China would be in chaos for hundreds of years during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
Faced with a cowardly court like the Song Dynasty, the Japanese country still sent envoys from the Song Dynasty.
Daughters of nobles also traveled across the sea to find tall and strong Song people, offered themselves pillow mats, and spent a lot of money to seek excellent Chinese seeds.
Obviously, the disastrous defeat hundreds of years ago was too unforgettable for the Japanese country.
As a result, the defeat of the former Yuan Dynasty in the conquest of the Japanese island gave them the ambition to covet the Celestial Dynasty again.
"The Japanese country at that time was indeed a good dog..."
Lin Che straightened her body and said with a serious expression: "For hundreds of years, Japanese slaves came to China countless times to study, learn culture, learn technology, learn governance, etc."
"All expenses during the period will be settled in gold."
Lin Che glanced at the stunned Zhu Xi and emphasized:
"Don't look at me like that, you heard me right."
"The coins they settled were not silver, let alone copper coins, but gold, the most precious gold in the land of China."
"When the envoys from the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty came to our land in China, they were like a bunch of fat pigs waiting to be slaughtered."
"Although prices were not high in the Tang and Song Dynasties at that time, if you want to learn the cooking techniques of the Tang and Song Dynasty people, it is impossible without bleeding!"
"Since ancient times, gold and silver have been hard currencies. There is no doubt about this!"
"Simple and easy to use, no matter what dynasty it is."
"These things I mentioned, if you carefully look through the history books or retained local chronicles, there will be some vague records in them."
"I didn't make this up, let alone make it up!"
