"Tribal leaders can be appointed officials. As local officials of the Ming Dynasty, they can receive salary on a quarterly or annual basis. At the same time, they have a license to trade on Temple Street." Yang Fan said.
When they heard about the salary, these people pricked up their ears.
Trade rights are what they want. The furs and various materials in their hands will rot in their hands without trade rights. People like them are not valued by the Ming Dynasty and are not qualified to pay tribute.
They had heard that the leaders of Nuergandusi had been officials in the Ming Dynasty for decades. The salary of the Ming Dynasty was silk, cloth, and grain. These were what they needed most.
Sometimes there are extra rewards on good days such as the emperor's and empress' birthdays, the new king's coronation, etc.
"If the tribe can produce fifty full-time soldiers, it will be eligible to receive the canonization." Yang Fan continued, "Not everyone can be a local official in the Ming Dynasty. There must be at least a thousand tribesmen who can produce five
Ten soldiers can be appointed deputy to a hundred households. Official positions can be hereditary. The salary is two taels of silver per month plus one load of rice. If you pass the assessment at the end of the year, you will also be rewarded with ten pieces of cloth, one piece of silk, ten pounds of salt, and white sugar.
Ten kilograms, ten kilograms of tea bricks. One hundred households, one thousand households, one thousand households, double the amount step by step."
This condition was even better than that of the Jurchens of the East China Sea. These leaders were immediately moved.
The reason why we gave them better conditions is because they are located far away, and it would take a month to reach Vladivostok. If the conditions are not good, we probably won’t be able to mobilize them.
"If there is an expedition in the Ming Dynasty, you must send out soldiers to follow. The number of soldiers for a hundred households must not be less than one hundred, the number for a hundred households must not be less than one hundred, the number for a thousand households must be no less than five hundred, and the number of soldiers for a thousand households must not be less than a thousand. The soldiers who go out for the expedition
, one hundred kilograms of grain will be paid as settlement expenses in advance. The military salary will be one kilogram of rice per month. If there are gains and losses, there will be additional bonuses."
When this condition was announced, there was an immediate bang and almost exploded.
Food is very precious here. Because animal meat and fish are not easy to preserve. The collected fruits, mushrooms, and wild vegetables are difficult to preserve in Nagasaki. They lack the technology to effectively process them.
Therefore, when food is in short supply, especially in winter, food is a life-saving thing. Only food can be stored for many years, even ten years.
They had no place to hunt in winter. Under the heavy snow cover, some animals hibernated and some hid. They all ate in their caves the food they had stored in autumn.
Naturally, these people couldn't hunt. Moreover, the river was frozen, making fishing impossible.
At this time, we can only rely on the dried vegetables and dried meat stored in autumn to wait for spring. At this time, in the most difficult time, if we have grain and wild vegetables and dried vegetables to cook porridge, we can ensure that the young and strong people in the tribe will not
Starve to death. If there was more food, the elderly and children might survive this winter.
There is too little food to get here. After all, food is so important. The caravan was intercepted by other tribes before it got here. Even if a small amount of food comes here, the price will not be less than a sable skin.
A pound of rice.
Now, the conditions given by Daming made their eyes red.
Especially when there is an expedition, if you follow the expedition, you will first be given one hundred catties of rice to each person. This is a huge wealth. During the expedition, there will also be a monthly salary of one pound of rice. It makes them doubt that they heard wrong. There are gains and
If captured, there will be rewards.
These people immediately swarmed up and shouted that they were willing to accept the canonization.
Donkey Dan roared, "Back away, don't get closer than three steps."
Everyone immediately realized the dignity of this noble man and quickly stepped back with a smile.
"One month later, when you come to Shuangchengzi, I will see the number of soldiers you brought. According to the number of soldiers, I will assign official positions. At the same time, I will determine the scope of the territory for you on the map. Once the official positions are determined, the Ming Dynasty will issue four sets of single clothes and uniforms a year.
Cotton clothes, official uniforms, a set of armor, a bow, three hundred arrows, a waist knife, a spear, a dagger, and three pairs of leather boots. Since we are here today, each person will be given a hundred kilograms first.
Rice, ten pieces of cloth, ten kilograms of tea bricks, ten kilograms of refined salt, a jar of spirits, and five hundred kilograms of braised whale meat."
Yang Fan doesn't have the time or energy to go to their territories and check them one by one. Then it will depend on how many people they can pull out. How many soldiers you have, how big an official I will give you.
It is the law of heaven and earth, and children and elders should not be deceived.
No matter how rough these savages are, they still have to be convinced.
Who makes you inferior to others? If you have few soldiers, you have to accept the reality.
But today, no one can come in vain. As long as they come, everyone will be rewarded. This is to follow Shang Yang's example and win their trust. Especially strong wine and refined salt. Once these savages taste it, they will never forget it. This is
Bind them with lust for food and drink.
Yang Fan now has water transportation, and this time nine big fortune ships have brought a huge amount of supplies, which are all stored in the warehouse on Temple Street. Yang Fan was able to distribute the supplies.
Whale meat is the least valuable, and the Vladivostok whaling fleet can catch hundreds of them every month.
Whales are mainly used to extract whale oil, and whale skins can also be used to make leather goods. As for whale meat, canning it is almost the same as braised pork.
The taste of whale meat is not much different from that of ordinary meat. The difference is that it has a little more fishy smell. After removing the fishy smell, it is not much different from ordinary pork and beef. After all, whales are actually mammals.
When cooking, add some white wine, some vinegar, and some ginger. The fishy smell can be easily removed. When it's done, the whale meat will be delicious.
The taste of whale meat is like three layers of meat. It has a soft texture but still has a bit of bite.
The cooked whale meat is very delicious, but in fact the taste is not much different from ordinary meat, except for a little more fishy smell. This fishy smell can be removed with spices and frying. There are many methods.
Yang Fan now has a special clipper ship to transport spices back from the Nanyang Islands. The spices are the same as those picked up for free and are worthless. The small clipper ships in the early days have now been converted into spice transport ships.
The texture of whale meat is like beef. It tastes a bit like crispy white fungus. If it is not seasoned, it will have almost no taste at all, and it will just have a crunchy texture.
Whale steak is made by cutting the whale meat into small pieces like ribs, frying them, and then coating them with seasonings. It tastes hard and dry.
Yang Fan has found the best method here, which is braised in braised pork. It can almost replace braised pork.
It is produced in a factory and then packaged in tinplate buckets, each weighing 50 kilograms. Because it is produced under high-temperature sealing, the shelf life is as long as three years. Not only are spices and plenty of salt added inside, it is a rare delicacy in this era.
Spices and refined salt are not something ordinary people can afford. Even the Ming Dynasty was rich.
The output of this thing is very large. Yang Fan transported tens of thousands of barrels to the temple street warehouse. Today, there are about a hundred leaders. Ten barrels per person is only a thousand barrels.
After Yang Fan finished explaining and distributed things to them, he left. As for those who want to be officials, just go to Vladivostok with their own troops. It is best to make them active in this kind of thing.
If Ming Dynasty needs to be more arrogant, love will come.
After Yang Fan left, these people all ran excitedly to get the supplies. As soon as they got these savage things, they couldn't help but open the cans and taste the whale meat, opened the bottles of spirits, and started drinking.
A jar of wine only weighed three kilograms. These savages couldn't help but drink it all. They were so drunk that they fell into unconsciousness. Su Tong was so frightened that he quickly brought them into the house and put them on the big kang to avoid freezing to death outside.
