Chapter 1528 smelling fishy

"Your Highness, one million Japanese slaves, the court is really a lion talking."

The Prime Minister of Fusang couldn't help but complain to Prince Zhang Jing that there were indeed millions of Japanese people in Fusang, but these Japanese people were regarded as citizens of the prince's prince by the officials of the Eastern Palace, and even regarded as property of the Eastern Palace. Now, the court said in one sentence, so he asked the Eastern Palace to demote the original nobles and powerful masters of the Japanese country to slaves and send them back to the Central Plains, and even set a number.

It's quite a complete one million.

"Even if a slave is calculated at fifty stakes, no, even if it is calculated at the wholesale price of thirty stakes per stake, one million is equivalent to 30 million stakes." The Prime Minister calculating with Zhang Jing with his fingers.

It's 30 million guan. If it's just a tax on land, only fifteen cents will be collected per mu, and the total amount of land tax in Dahua in a year is only about 30 million guan. Even if the prince took all the fields into the East Palace in Fusang and then rented them to those Japanese people, collecting six dou of land rent per mu, the land rent would not make 30 million guan a year.

This is a big sum of money, and the officials of the East Palace have even been planning how to use the money.

"If these Japanese slaves were sent back to the Central Plains, the court would not ask us for nothing. At that time, they would also exchange them for ships, ploughing tools and other supplies." Zhang Jing was relatively calm.

He believed that the emperor's father would not take advantage of him.

My father gave him ten years to run Fusang, and he had to come up with a qualified report card in these ten years. Conquering Japan is not a result, and now it is just the beginning.

"Even if the court gives us supplies, it will definitely take advantage of us. One million Japanese slaves, even if one loses ten cents, it will still lose ten million."

"Don't be petty, either." Zhang Jing waved his hand and returned to the report in front of him. The court asked Fusang to transport one million Japanese people back to the Central Plains as slaves, and it was also stated that he had to send back all the nobles and powerful men from the upper and middle levels of the former Japanese.

This is not just a random capture of one million Japanese people, it is a complete removal of the middle and upper Japanese people.

He was clear about the benefits of doing this, but the strength was indeed beyond imagination.

One million Japanese slaves have even exceeded one tenth.

"Your Majesty said that you will also migrate a group of Turks, Tuyuhun people, Qiang people, Tubo people, Xueyantu people, Khitan people, Xi people, Mohe people, Shiwei people, Liao people, Linyi people, Zhenla people, etc. from the northeast and southwest places. They will come to Fusang."

"It's all a group of barbarians. What's the point? It's not as easy to manage as the Japanese." The Prime Minister looked disgusted. Besides, how many can the imperial court move to move? One million Japanese people will be sent away, and then 100,000 barbarians will be sent. How can this business be considered a loss?

"The court has just decided to form the 13th Fleet, Fusang Fleet, and is located in the Fusang Islands. The former Korean Fleet was changed to the Korean Peninsula. After the 13th Fleet entered Fusang, the Marine Corps will also add the 13th Marine Division to Fusang. The 20,000 former Army personnel will be stationed for another year to help us strengthen our control over Fusang. The stationed by these troops is available to the imperial court's military expenditure, which will be a huge expense this year."

"It would be great if the court could agree to immigrate to a hundred thousand Han people." The Prime Minister sighed.

One hundred thousand Han people, that is fifty or six hundred thousand Han people. Although it can only account for one tenth of them in Fusang, there are 100,000 Han people, and there are 100,000 Han people, which will definitely make the rule here smooth.

Zhang Jing shook his head and smiled. It was not so easy.

With the expansion over the years, the Han people, as the main ethnic group of Dahua, have enjoyed many expansion benefits. Basically, all Han people have a piece of land in their hands, and there are still a lot of them, and they can be called small landlords of self-cultivated farmers.

Many Han people also seized the opportunity to open workshops and build factories, hire workers and even buy slaves, and the industry was in full swing.

Even many people in the remote and poor mountains used this east to immigrate to the frontier, enclose land to build farms, and become the owner of the farm manor.

To be honest, most of the Han people nowadays have become middle-class people and live a comfortable life.

At least you don’t have to worry about food and clothing. If you want to immigrate in a large number of times, you can find people who are not full of food, clothing and clothes.

Not to mention 100,000 households, the court can make the best efforts to transfer 100,000 people. After all, what can Fusang have? The Han people will at most give them more land to occupy.

But now the fields are not valuable, so where is there? Why do people travel across the ocean thousands of miles away?

Now Zhang Jing is preparing to attract a group of Han people to Fusang, but he no longer intends to rely on land to attract people, and land cannot attract people.

He was still planning to use other tricks, for example, Fusang was just a traditional agricultural society in the past, but in the future, Fusang, as the imperial court's direct jurisdiction and the prince's fief, would definitely have great development potential.

The silver and copper mine reserves here are extremely high, and the population here is also large.

Even if one million Japanese people were to be transported back to the Central Plains this time, the emperor agreed to transfer 200,000 gangs and 100,000 Han people, then there is still a population of nearly 10 million.

There is a market for population.

The handicraft industry here is still relatively weak, and it is time to have great potential. Not to mention that the handicraft manufacturing industry that competes with the Central Plains will be built soon, but at least the supply needs to Fusang, there are still some advantages. After all, the transportation cost from the Central Plains opposite the ocean is not small.

Some simple things can be produced by yourself.

Zhang Jing planned to attract investment in Fusang, attract some Central Plains merchants to invest in and build factories and workshops under some low tax conditions, and even ask them to bring some Central Plains skilled workers to come over. If they can attract these people to come and settle down, this is also very good.

In the first five-year development plan for Fusang formulated by Zhang Jing and Guoxiang, the first major project is to develop Fusang's silver-copper minerals, build mineral development into a primary industry, and then drive other industries in some industrial chains.

The second is the manual manufacturing industry, which develops some manual manufacturing industries that can meet the needs of Fusang.

Then there are agriculture, fishing, and ships.

Zhang Jing also formulated a road construction plan, which is to widen the seven national highways and seven national highways in Fusang, and to build a port terminal in Fusang.

These investments are actually quite large, especially road construction.

It is not only necessary to build the seven roads that run through the entire Fusang, but also to build the port and dock. This is not a small investment. But it is not possible to not build roads. If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Until now, you have been building roads.

Since Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, roads have been built everywhere, especially in the four sides. No matter how bad the terrain is, the road construction has never stopped. While several key national highways are being built, roads within each road, within the state, and even within the county are being built.

The advantage of road construction is that it can be seen and touched, which has a strong effect in driving a place to develop.

If Fusang wants to achieve success in its business, it must be repaired. Fusang cannot be allowed to make the same place as the Japanese in the past, and each place will be divided.

To build roads and develop, we cannot do without the support of the court. It not only requires money, but also professional technical personnel.

Therefore, the imperial court wanted to transport one million Japanese slaves back from Fusang, but Zhang Jing did not think that this was a loss. At most, this was a cooperation. He exchanged Japanese slaves for supplies and technology from the Central Plains.

Various new policies such as tax cuts and exemptions have been introduced to attract businessmen from the Central Plains to invest and attract Han people to settle down.

The construction of Fusang requires money, not only the tens of thousands of troops in the fief require funds, but also the construction of roads requires money. Those Japanese slaves cannot be cashed out directly, but fortunately, there is not only one project that Zhang Jing has made money.

He defeated all the original royal family, ministers, nobles and powerful men in Japan. He could not ignore these people, but their property was still there.

Just confiscating these properties would be a huge amount of income, which was simply a fortune. Even if the court greeted him, Fusang would hand over one-third to the court's treasury, but what was left was still a huge amount of income.

As long as you have money, it is easy to do things.

With money, Zhang Jing can invite shopkeepers from major businesses in the Central Plains to come to Fusang for a meeting.

At the conference, Zhang Jing was very generous and took out countless purchase orders at one time.

All kinds of supplies, and huge in quantity.

Zhang Jing said readily that he could pay when the goods arrived, and even was willing to pay 30% of the payment in advance. This cooperation method was deeply loved by merchants.

Who wouldn't want to do such a business, let alone the Crown Prince.

Zhang Jing has money and did not think about taking advantage of the merchants.

Everything was carried out according to the official procurement process of the court, and merchants were invited to come for a meeting, and then they were publicly tendered to bid.

Very fair and open and just.

Those who win the bid are all very powerful big businesses, which offer low prices, sufficient supply capacity and good credit.

Those who failed to win the bids also maintained a good attitude. After all, the whole process was very open, fair and just. If everyone didn’t win the bid, it was just that they were not strong enough.

But when you come, you can't just return empty-handed.

Prince Zhang Jing invited them to hold an investment promotion conference and recommended many investment promotion projects to them. Not to mention, many projects are really quite promising.

Immediately, many businessmen stayed and left immediately without rushing.

After careful investigation, careful discussion, and a verbal negotiation, the merchants and the officials of the East Palace reached many commercial cooperation projects on Fusang development and were willing to invest.

What shipyards, ship repair yards, wood factory, brick factory, tile factory, ceramic factory, leather factory, garment factory, textile factory, etc.

There is nearly 10 million people here, which is a huge market. In the past, the local manufacturing industry here was too weak. Some of the Central Plains merchants had new technologies, and many merchants even needed to recruit some technicians from their own Central Plains manufacturers to open a branch and quickly seize the market share here.

Moreover, many of the tax and fee reduction policies given by the prince are indeed very attractive, and even the planned commercial areas and other land can be given for free.

Even some owners of the catering and entertainment industry rushed over after hearing the news.

No matter whether it is Fusang or North Korea, as long as there are business opportunities, businessmen will naturally come.
