Chapter 248 Gold Rush ([-])
Cowherd Island

Cowherd City (Sapporo, Japan)

"Execution!"

"what!--"

Dozens of hairy people were executed by Ling Chi.

Mao people (Ainu people in Japan) have a lot of body hair, so the Wang family named them Mao people.

Mao people live in the northern part of Queqiao Island and Niulang Island. They live by fishing and hunting, which is similar to the lifestyle of Sushen people.

The Mao people are about the same height as the northerners of the Central Plains, but their civilization is so backward that they don’t even have a bronze civilization. They are still at the stage of fighting with animal clothes and wooden weapons.

As these dozens of Mao people were executed, all the Mao people below trembled.

"This is the fate of daring to poach my royal family's livestock!"

The sons of the Wang family who were in charge of grazing management on Niulang Island sneered at the group of hairy servants.

A Mao translator who had just learned a little bit of Chinese translated this sentence for his compatriots.

In the entire Niulang Island, only many towns were built near Niulang City, and farmland was reclaimed to feed the herdsmen who graze on the island.

The places outside Cowherd City are either the grazing area of ​​the Wang family or the habitat of the local Mao people.

But these hateful hairy people always like to hunt and kill the livestock that the Wang family raises on the island.

In the end, after discussion by the family council, it was decided to temporarily stop hunting the Japanese, and instead transport all hunting teams to Niulang Island, striving to wipe out the hairy people on Niulang Island as soon as possible, and prevent the livestock that the Wang family worked so hard to raise from being destroyed. poaching.

In order to stimulate the hunting team's enthusiasm for hunting hairy people, the Wang family specifically increased the bounty for the hairy people on Niulang Island.

A hairy head is worth 1000 coins, a hairy young slave is worth 2000 coins, and a female slave is worth 3000 coins.

In the present Central Plains, the annual income of a family of five is only 5000-7000 renminbi, and once the current price of corn is 40 renminbi.

For a stone of corn, the lowest price was 5 renminbi during Emperor Xuan’s period, and the highest price was 20 renminbi. During Wang Mang’s period, the lowest price was 1000 renminbi, and the highest price was over 20000 renminbi.

In the period of Emperor Guangwu, the price of rice was 200 yuan per stone, but the period of Emperor Guangwu had just ended the war, and it was understandable that a lot of waste was waiting to be done.

The price of rice in the period of Emperor Ming was 80 yuan a stone, in the period of Emperor Zhang it was 50 yuan a stone, and in the period of Emperor He it was 30 yuan a stone.

Just looking at the price of rice, it can be seen that the effect of the Han Dynasty's recuperation is very good. The living standards of the people are improving year by year, but they still have not reached the living standards of the Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. It is no wonder that countless people miss the Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.

However, with the death of Emperor Hanhe, the prosperity of Yongyuan also came to an end. After just a few months, the price of rice rose from 30 yuan to 40 yuan. It seems that the big man is about to go downhill again.

But in Niulangdao, if you kill seven hairy people, you can earn more than a family in the Central Plains in a year.

In order to wipe out the hairy people on Niulang Island as soon as possible, the Wang family spent a lot of money this time.

There are about 15 Mao people on the island. If you want to completely wipe them out, the bounty for the heads alone will cost [-] million yuan. This does not include the bounty for slaves, the loss of royal private soldiers and the impact of Mao people having children. .

If these factors are also taken into account, it may cost [-] million yuan to completely turn the entire Cowherd Island into a safe grazing place.

It was not only the various hunting squads that hunted the Maoren, but also some Maoren servants (puppet troops) who surrendered to the royal family.

A total of 21 hunting teams, a total of 310 seven people, plus ten royal family soldiers, 100 royal security soldiers, and 500 Mao servants, a total of 920 seven people participated in the mass hunting of 15 Mao people.

"Hunting and killing hairy people well, you can also get rewards for hunting hairy people. As long as you collect [-] rewards, my royal family will give you Han registration cards, allowing you to get [-] acres of wasteland to reclaim like other Han people right."

The children of the Wang family encouraged these Maoren servant soldiers.

However, for these hairy people who are familiar with the terrain of Niulang Island, even if they register as registered households, the Wang family will not let them stay on Niulang Island to open up wasteland. The numerical advantage of the Liaodong Han people assimilated these meritorious Mao people.

After some translation, the Maoren and puppet soldiers cheered up instantly, and couldn't wait to capture and slaughter their compatriots.

At this time, many ships floated on the sea.

wow wow wow-

The fleet cleared the sea and came to Niulang port.

"Moo-"

"hiss--"

The shouts of cows and prairie ponies rose one after another.

These cattle will multiply and live on Niulang Island, and then be domesticated by the herdsmen on the island into farming cattle, and the domesticated ones will be transported to Queqiao Island to open up wasteland.

The prairie pony is specially bred as a means of transportation. Both carriages and trucks need horses. It just so happens that the Wang family disdains riding a pony to fight, worrying that the combat power is not enough, so they all send them to Cowherd Island.

And the ones that were really used as cavalry mounts were the one hundred bloody BMWs (Ahal Tekin horses/Dawan horses) brought back by the ancestor Wang Hongnian from the Dawan Kingdom more than 100 years ago. They were raised and bred on Penglai Island. Under the careful care of the Wang family who spared no expense, there are now 190 seven bloody BMWs, including two alienated red rabbit horses.

"This time, a total of 3200 cattle and 210 prairie horses were brought in. Please count them."

"Ok."

Cowherd Ling led a group of Cowherd City officials to start counting the number of livestock that disembarked.

The number of horses is sufficient, and there is not a shortage of means of transportation, but cattle, such livestock, are starting to be in short supply again in the Wang family.

Unlike the one cow per family in the Central Plains, the Wang family implemented one cow per family, that is, one cow per adult. Under the same number of people, the demand for cattle is twice that of the Central Plains!
"This year, three small towns have been newly reclaimed on Queqiao Island. At least [-] cattle are needed. Do you have so many here?"

"There are only [-] cattle on the island, and less than [-] are domesticated into farming cattle."

"It's really hard to do."

"You can consider using the Japanese and Mao people as cattle, and put them on iron plows to plow the fields."

"This is an idea, but it's not a long-term solution. We still have to find a way from the grassland."

"Didn't the family council issue a reward task? Let everyone improve the iron plow and make a more labor-saving iron plow. In this case, even grassland horses can barely be used to plow the fields, so that the problem of lack of cattle can be temporarily alleviated. "

"Let's wait until those craftsmen improve it."

Several children of the Wang family were discussing Niu Huang, and the Cowherd Ling clapped his hands and greeted dozens of hairy girls to receive the crew and sailors of the Wang family.

"These hairy people are good. They look much better than Japanese people, but they have too much body hair."

"When we have saved enough money, our brothers and sisters will go to Busan to be unrestrained and unrestrained. The women there are so enchanting."

It was rare for the sailors to get off the boat to rest, and each of them began to relax with a hairy girl in their arms. After the relaxation, they had lunch in Cowherd City by the way.

Because there is a fishing ground (Hokkaido fishing ground) near Niulang Island, the fish in Niulangcheng is very cheap and you can eat fresh.

A group of sailors watched the horse fighting performance of Maoren slaves while eating a feast of fish and meat.

Because cattle are an important resource, in order to prevent slaves from accidentally killing cattle, all bullfighting is prohibited, and grassland horses are temporarily not in short supply, so there is a horse fighting performance, and at the same time, in order to prevent slaves from accidentally killing horses, All horse fighters are forbidden to carry any weapons and can only fight wild horses with bare hands.

A horse-fighting slave was unfortunately knocked to the ground by a wild horse during a performance, and the wild horse's hooves trampled on it wantonly.

"it is good!"

"Get up, trash!"

"Useless things made me lose money!"

A group of sailors who were watching the horsefighting game had placed their bets in advance, and those sailors who bet on the victory of the slaves rebuked the horsefighting slaves angrily.
