Chapter 266 The Dying Struggles(2/2)
The horse's hooves were "trampling" on the ground, and Yang Ling pondered for a while and then turned his gaze on the mother and son. They seemed to feel that Yang Ling was a person who could determine their life and death. When Yang Ling looked at them again, the young woman suddenly pulled the child down on her knees and kowtowed to Yang Ling.
She could not speak Chinese, but the begging and pity in her eyes was clearly expressed. Yang Ling shook her head and said, "The secretary, in the name of the Governor's Office, ordered the governors of the six provinces to quickly sign the official positions of all prefectures, prefectures, counties, and villages. From now on, whenever the Japanese pirates are found, they will be sent to the official position immediately.
The government must register them and manage them in a unified manner, and do not allow them to wander. These people... must be infiltrated and will never be allowed to study. Women and children are sold to wealthy gentry slaves, and they sell their capital to serve military pay. All adult men are given to the northwest to raise horses and shepherds."
"Yes!" The clerk immediately took out his pen and ink, hurriedly wrote it down, handed it to Yang Ling for a look, and then ordered the postman to quickly return to the Governor's Mansion. The mother and son were immediately sent to the county government office by Wang He who was changing his power, and he was first taken to the county government.
Yang Ling suddenly felt a little confused when he looked at their backs: "When this opening is opened, will slave trading be popular from now on? But if that is not the case, what can all parties accept it to deal with this matter?"
He remembered that there had been pirates on the southeast coast who had already robbed Han people and sold them to Japan and served as slaves in the South Ocean. In fact, the wealthy families in the Ming Dynasty had already had privately bought and sold slaves from foreign traders. For example, the Adni in his mansion. I believe that many Jiangnan gentry had similar foreign beauties in the mansions. How could he be the initiator?
Yang Ling tried hard to convince himself and dispel the faint guilt in his heart, but he clearly knew in his heart that it was a transaction under the shadows and an act of the underground kingdom. Although he saved many lives in one fell swoop today, he also let the act of a person be allowed to occur.
Sometimes, it is difficult to simply define whether it is good or evil, and what it brings is often intertwined with two consequences.
He shook his head and asked Wang He: "Mr. Wang County Magistrate, how many days will the army reach Fuzhou?"
Wang He hurriedly said: "Sir, you can reach the Fuzhou territory within about six days after passing the ancient road."
