Chapter 192 Linggai Gold Mine

When they heard "the Emperor of Japan", the expressions of Luo Xing and others changed.

The originally good atmosphere immediately changed. Luo Xing said seriously: "There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the earth. There is only one emperor in the world, and that is our Emperor of the Han Dynasty. You can only call yourself yourself within the country. How can you communicate with the outside world?"

In front of the Emperor of China, I call myself Emperor?"

"This is true for all laws in the world. Don't you know that your country is deeply influenced by Chinese (Central Plains) etiquette?"

Fujiwara Masayuki calmly said: "The emperor of our country is the emperor where the sun rises, and the emperor of the Central Plains is the emperor where the sun sets. Our kings and ministers recognize the emperor of Han as the emperor, why don't you respect him equally?"

"General, if you can speak Chinese, understand etiquette, know Chinese characters, and read the Book of Songs, you should know that there are no two emperors in this world." Luo Xing persuaded him earnestly.

"Humph, I'm afraid your envoy has forgotten that your country only occupies a land in the south of Lingnan, and the people are not as good as ours. What is the emperor?"

Fujiwara Masayuki's face was very calm, but what he said was very slap in the face:

"The Zhou Kingdom in the Central Plains also came to our country. The land is thousands of miles away, and there are hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and generals. How does your country compare with it?"

As soon as these words came out, Luo Xing's face turned blue and white, and he didn't know what to say.

This is really a slap in the face. A small country with a small population has always been a pain point for the Southern Han Dynasty. It seems like a joke to talk about emperor in a country with a population several times larger than itself.

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly reached a deadlock, Fujiwara Masayuki smiled and said:

"When your envoy meets with His Majesty the Emperor, it is natural that the letter of credence needs to be written in this way. However, you may have forgotten that in the entire country of Japan, Fujiwara Shoseki dominates the government. The reason why your country signed the letter of credence with Fujiwara Shoseki is the same!

"

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly realized. In an instant, the atmosphere became lively again. Food and drinks were also served. They talked about some poems, songs, and unofficial history of the Tang Dynasty. The two of them were equal to each other. You pushed me and I gave way.

, so lively.

Immediately, the trade documents were presented to the Regent Sekihaku Taisei Minister Fujiwara Minori. For this politician, trade would help expand the strength of the Fujiwara family, so it was natural. After thinking for a moment, he agreed instantly.

For the Southern Han Dynasty, the most lacking thing was copper. Japan had an abundance of copper, so Luo Xing used copper coins to buy copper materials and then forged copper coins. The price difference was nearly doubled.

Don't underestimate copper coins. This technology is only available in China in East Asia. The most popular one on the Japanese market is Kaiyuan Tongbao.

Luo Xing did not forget his ultimate goal, and proposed to purchase land on Saikaidō (Kyushu) to build a port in order to have a place for transit.

To this, Fujiwara Shoseki verbally agreed. After all, Saikaidō (Kyushu Island) was remote and sparsely populated, and it was a place that no other minister had ever set foot on, so he agreed.

From the perspective of the Japanese at this time, Kyushu Island is just like the Central Plains people see Annan now. It is a foreign land. At most, there are some real estates there, and the rest does not matter.

So, when Luo Xing and others came to Kyushu Island, they received a warm welcome. God knows how long it had been since local tycoons like them had seen businessmen, not to mention the Tang people, and the local warriors and nobles were extremely polite.

When I heard that they were planning to set up a port on Saikaidō, I was even more happy. Finally, I could directly bask in the glory of the Tang Dynasty.

"Why are these Japanese people so polite to us?" The deputy envoy could no longer bear it. He looked at the singing and dancing Japanese people and asked directly.

"Since the early Tang Dynasty, the Japanese have been extremely obedient, and there are many historical records about them."

"I was originally curious about this. Before I came here, I read the history books and found out!"

While walking, Luo Xing said: "During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the former Tang Dynasty, the land of Goryeo was divided into three pillars: Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla.

In the sixth year of Emperor Gaozong's reign, Goguryeo and Baekje allied forces attacked Silla, and Silla sent envoys to ask for help from Tang.

Emperor Gaozong then sent troops to attack Goguryeo and Baekje successively. Baekje asked Japan for help. In the third year of Longshuo (663), Tang general Liu Rengui defeated the 200,000 Japanese troops who assisted Baekje with 40,000 Tang troops. Jiangkou defeated Baekje, and its king rushed to Goguryeo. In the first year of Zongzhang (668), the Tang army captured Pyongyang and destroyed Goguryeo.

The Japanese government and the public were shaken, and a steady stream of envoys were sent to the Tang Dynasty!"

Only those who have truly seen what a superpower is, and after seeing the advanced military power of the Tang Army that is thousands of years ahead, Japan suddenly realizes that fighting with those countries on the peninsula is just a matter of rookies pecking each other!

As a result, Japan began to send Tang envoys to China to study. The result was just like the wave of going abroad in the 1970s and 1980s, which was unstoppable. The more they studied, the more they realized they were rubbish.

Therefore, Dahua Innovation was born.

Japan followed the example of the Tang Dynasty and established the Five Territories and Seven Territories, which refers to the administrative divisions of the entire land of Japan under the legal system in ancient times. The "Five Territories" refers to the five countries in the Gyeonggi area, and other territories outside the Gyeonggi area are modeled after the Tang Dynasty in China and are divided into seven territories. Such as Hokkaido and Saikaido.

Saikkaido is Kyushu Island. The name of Kyushu Island is also the reason why there are nine kingdoms here. It can also be called Kyukoku Island. However, Shikoku Island has already been occupied, so it would be bad to repeat it again.

At this time, they came to Ohsumi Country, which is Kagoshima.

Luo Xing and his party sat down at separate tables and had a lively conversation. The gentry and tycoons from each county expressed their request to establish this promising port in their own county. Luo Xing was noncommittal and just drank.

People around me complained that this sake was really boring to drink.

After the banquet was over, Luo Xing said that he wanted to go to Linggao County. The atmosphere suddenly became cold. After a while, it became lively again.

Although Hisikari County is remote and not very big, it is still within Ohsumi Province and the place is close, so it is okay.

To be honest, Luo Xing didn't know why he wanted to go to Linggao County, but it was Lang Jun's order, so what could he do?

Subsequently, hundreds of fellows from Xie Lingdu also came to Linggao County and began their prospecting career.

In the barren mountains and ridges, no one had the confidence to travel thousands of miles to find minerals here, but Taoist Miao Shi was the only one who looked confident.

There is no reason why he is not confident. The large mines that Xilingdu has been looking for these days are basically done in accordance with the instructions of Governor Li, not exploration.

It was normal for me to come to Japan this time. These achievements are easy to come by.

Li Jia was deeply impressed by the Ryugao Gold Mine, especially since he had read too many Japanese Warring States novels at the starting point. Those famous people relied on gold mines to prosper, and there was too much gold and silver in Japan, so he searched on Baidu and found Ryugao Gold. mine.

The Hisikari gold deposit, which began in 1750, is located about 45km northeast of Kagoshima City in southern Kyushu, Japan, in the northeastern part of the Hokkaido region. It is one of the world-class gold deposits discovered in the 1980s.

The Hisoka Gold Mine has the highest gold content in Japan's history. In the past 23 years, 165 tons of gold have been mined, with an annual output of 7 to 10 tons of gold. Even with current technology, one ton per year is still more than 20,000 taels of gold. This is very important to Li.
