Chen Ke's biggest magic weapon in traveling around the world is his grasp of the direction of history. Although he doesn't know much about this period of Japanese history, he can clearly see its future context from several major events.
In Chen Ke's memory, Japanese politics at the end of the Heian period transitioned from regency to government, and finally to shogunate politics. The Heian era ended completely and entered the Kamakura shogunate era.
The current time should be the time when the politics of sekiki have reached their peak and then inevitably decline. What Chen Ke saw and heard in Japan completely confirmed this point. On the one hand, the prestige of Sekishiro and Fujiwara Yorimichi is unparalleled, close to
Deified. The Fujiwara family also almost controlled high positions in the imperial court and local areas. On the other hand, the ministerial group represented by the Fujiwara family was corrupt and weak. Facing the one after another rebellion in the country, it was completely powerless and had no intention of maintaining the situation.
They took the initiative to hand over government affairs to middle- and lower-level bureaucrats with ordinary backgrounds, and relied on the emerging samurai group to extinguish the rebellion and maintain their political power. This method of self-destruction of martial arts obviously created conditions for the later Yuanzheng era. But God seems to
She did not help the Seki family, but always held the position of empress, allowing the prince to serve as the grandson of the Seki family, and let her relatives interfere in politics. This was the reason why the Fujiwara family was able to suppress the emperor for a long time. However, Fujiwara Yorimichi's daughter never gave birth to the emperor.
The next prince.
As the emperor ages, it is inevitable that a new king will appear who has no blood relationship with the Fujiwara family. And by that time, the Shoseki family will almost lose an outstanding person like Yorimichi. It is said that the right time, place and people are right, once the successor has a new king
If you are courageous, you can unite the officials and warriors who have long been dissatisfied with the minister and take back the power!
Everyone will make progress. Chen Ke's current strategic level has far exceeded that of his previous life. He used only a few knowledge points and only the scales and claws he observed to figure out the direction of Japan's political situation.
As a native of the Song Dynasty, he studied Japan so enthusiastically not just because he was full, but because he wanted to find a direction for future decisions.
What he saw and heard made him feel that the Heian era was so lovely, and he really hoped that they could stay graceful forever... But these delicate and delicate ministers were obviously no match for the wolf-like samurai group. If nothing else,
, the average life expectancy is seventy, and it can kill you if you endure it!
Fortunately, in this era, the samurai group is still in its infancy. It will take several decades before they become truly powerful.
In this way, Chen Ke's strategy becomes obvious - to help the minister suppress the samurai and let the peace era continue as long as possible.
Moreover, only if the minister is in power, Japan will remain closed to the country, and he can do whatever he wants on Sado Island. So Chen Ke explained to Fujiwara Yorimichi the reason for the short life of the minister, and told him how to improve it. This is what will be recorded in Japanese history books in the future.
The origin of "Chen Gong taught Guan Bai the 'Eight Methods of Nourishing Life' to teach the ministers longevity."
Fujiwara Yorimichi was extremely grateful. As the patriarch of the Seki family, his understanding of these situations was no less than that of Chen Ke. When everything was safe, he could deceive himself and others and pretend to be peaceful. But once trouble occurred, it would be revealed immediately.
Got stuffing.
And as the ministers became more and more outrageous, the resentment of the lower-level civil servants, warriors, and people became more and more intense, and there were more and more rebellions in various places. If he wanted to suppress it, he had to rely on the warriors. The status of the warriors was getting higher and higher.
The ambition is getting bigger and bigger, and there are already signs of being out of control.
In order to "take control of the world and have long-lasting luck", Fujiwara Yorimichi worked hard to prevent the samurai group from growing further. To this end, he secretly contacted the Kiyohara family, a wealthy family in Dewa country, and prepared to give the Abe family a fatal blow from behind. Plus
Fujiwara Suiqiyo found out that he had gone astray, and he would strike back when the time comes. He should be able to pacify Mutsu without any effort from Genji.
On the other hand, he is also looking for good strategies to cheer up those unscrupulous descendants.
Therefore, Chen Ke's "Eight Ways to Maintain Life" was really like a long drought, and it moved Yoritsu to death. Moreover, he knew very well that Chen Ke's trip to Kyoto this month would definitely become a highlight moment in history. If he
If you are too stingy, you will definitely be looked down upon by future generations.
In fact, there is no need for future generations, as the current ministers can drown him with Tumo Xingzi... The other party has given Japan so much that he doesn't know how to repay it.
"Shibuni is a small country, and there is nothing that can catch your attention. I originally wanted to give Sado Island to you," Fujiwara Yorimichi wrote apologetically: "But it is just an uninhabited island, and I cannot express my respect and gratitude to you."
,therefore...'
"Sado Island is enough!" Chen Ke laughed and interrupted him, and wrote: "I don't need anything, and being able to keep a beautiful memory forever is the best gift!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ten days later, Chen Ke returned to Nagaoka City. In addition to more than a hundred carts of gifts from the emperor, Guan Bai and the ministers, there were also thirty-six Japanese maids.
These maids, all about sixteen or seventeen years old, are handsome in appearance and graceful in figure. They were carefully selected since childhood and strictly trained to serve the emperor and the Sheguan family. What made Chen Ke even more satisfied was that their faces
There was no makeup or powder on her face, her eyebrows were not plucked, or her teeth were blackened, so she didn’t look out of place at all.
It's not that they don't want to dress up as nobles, they just don't have the qualifications.
During Chen Ke's month in Kyoto, if there was anything that made him comfortable, it was these lovely maids who really took care of him from his toes to his teeth and gave him an emperor-like enjoyment. In this regard, most of them
Song's maids and servants are really incomparable.
Seeing that there was finally something that caught his eye, Fujiwara Yorimichi gave him all the newly trained batch with a stroke of his pen.
Chen Ke, a guy who loves to enjoy himself, naturally accepted it.
After resting for a while at Nagaoka Castle, Fujiwara Kyoukiyo made a request to become his retainer: "Since Sado-den is already a lord, he cannot live without his retainers. Let Kōkiyo be the first retainer of Sado-den."
Japanese title for lord.
Chen Ke didn't know much about the Japanese system at this time and asked: "Can you change the family at will without fear of being held accountable by the court?"
"I am a member of a famous family, and I am an abandoned member of the family." At this time, Fujiwara Nobuyoshi finally told the truth: "Since then, I have never become a subordinate of any power. Now I have no choice but to ask Sado-den to take me in."
I swear by my oath that I will always be loyal to Sado-den and obey my orders in life and death without any second thoughts!
Thanks to Chen Ke, Fujiwara Noblekiyo finally got the understanding of the Guan family and instructed him not to be exposed for the time being and wait for the court's order. But this promise was not strong, and the court could turn against him at any time. In order to add another layer of insurance to himself,
He then decided to become Chen Ke's retainer.
This guy calculated very carefully, thinking that once Chen Ke returned to China, it would be almost impossible for him to set foot in Japan again. But his relationship with Chen Ke was the best talisman. In the future, the court would not look at the face of a monk or the face of a Buddha.
He will not turn against others. In this way, he can use the banner of Chen Ke, but in fact he is still independent.
How could Chen Ke not know this guy's little thoughts? But he also had some thoughts. After all, he needed a spokesperson in Japan to maintain a certain influence. In the long run, it would be in his own interests to support this guy.
So the two people, who had their own thoughts, concluded an alliance of masters and ministers. The next day, Chen Ke boarded the ship and left Echigo.
When passing Sado Island, the lucky ship did not dock. Chen Ke just looked at the island that already belonged to him. He said to Li Fan beside him: "Although Japan has a sea ban, I have also told Fujiwara Noblekiyo not to get close to Sado Island."
. But after all, this place is under the eyes of the Japanese, so we must be cautious. Build a castle first, and then mine gold secretly, without making it public."
"Yes." Li Fan nodded and said, "But if you are not afraid of 10,000, then you are afraid of the worst. What if they find out?"
"Don't be afraid if you know it. This island was given to me by Guan Bai in the name of the emperor, and this is my territory." Chen Ke said lightly: "Besides, they never imagined that the gold mines here would be enough to mine for hundreds of years.
As long as I maintain enough influence on Japan, no one is willing to offend me." He paused and said, "Of course, the fundamental thing is to make this island impregnable."
"It's no problem to be impregnable. We have cement and concrete." Li Fan said with a wry smile: "But we need people to defend the city and mine gold. We need at least 10,000 people to do it."
"You don't have to worry about this." Chen Ke said: "Gold mining is nothing else. As long as we publicize the 50-50 policy, there will be people everywhere in Liao, Goryeo, and Song Dynasty who are willing to take risks and make a fortune. I have already asked Yi Ci Le
The industry will recruit people everywhere for me. When the time comes, they will be gathered on Tamna Island. You can transport them here." After a pause, he said: "As long as there are more than 10,000 people on the island, I won't be afraid of any threats. But the premise is that the rules must be well established, and
Never break your promise."
"I understand this." Li Fan nodded and said, "It's the same as begging for food at sea. If you want your subordinates to obey you, you must be fair and selfless."
"Well, the 200 Mamluk slaves you bought will be used as a guard force for you." Chen Ke said: "I will give you another 800 bald troops. With these 1,000 people, you should feel confident."
?" Chen Ke implemented a recruitment system in the Bald Army, with a three-year period, and the first period next year will be full. By then, these people who are willing to go home will go home, and those who are unwilling to go home can work as bodyguards at Sihai Trading Company.
Chen Ke estimated that at least one or two thousand people would defect to the world by then.
"Then I'll be relieved." Li Fan smiled.
"In addition to Sado Island, you have to pay attention to Tamluo." Chen Ke said: "Two years ago, the Yi Leye people started infiltrating there. If necessary, you have to help them." Tamluo is a businessman.
The power of the kingdom is very weak. With Tamra in hand, Sado Island will no longer be an isolated island, and it can also monopolize the trade between Song, Liao, Japan and Korea.
"Yes." Li Fan responded repeatedly. For a long time, he had to support the overall situation alone.

Finally going back to Beijing... Phew.
