Chapter 464 After this village, there is no such shop
Liu Ziyu led the main team and did not stop too much at the Huntong Riverkou. The team sailed upstream. Only five or six hundred people were left in the stronghold behind, half of which were prisoners and laborers. They all came from Essay and Sakhalin Island.
The Song army set up a transit port in the Hokkien land area, so they naturally had to deal with the surrounding Hokkien people. Of course, there were different attitudes, including good and bad, friendly tribes, and hostile tribes.
The Song army traded with tribal friendly attitudes, using grain, salt, sugar, cloth, iron tools, etc. to exchange for fur and hired personnel from the latter, and even bought prisoners from the latter.
In a sense, this behavior is almost the same as the black slave trade in the original time and space.
It is to use interests as temptations to induce wars between indigenous tribes, thereby increasing its influence in indigenous tribes while acquiring slaves and weakening the strength of indigenous tribes.
It's just that the scale is much smaller. The number of the Essays is also very limited. The number of prisoners purchased by Liu Ziyu is far from comparable to that of the black slaves in history, so the Song army also sent supplies to hire some labor.
As for the natives on Sakhalin Island, they were more unlucky people who were beaten by a rabbit when the Song army naval fleet was docked on the island.
Just at the temple street in later generations, a camp with the banner of Song has risen from the ground. In the next half year, the three hundred defenders and vassals here will have to do their best to turn this small camp into a small port city. In this way, the labor force will be quite huge.
Hundreds of prisoners and hundreds of Song soldiers were working hard to cut down huge trees on the edge of the forest. Not only did it take a lot of wood to build a city, but even a simple wooden trest bridge to facilitate ship mooring, it required a large amount of wood.
Moreover, in winter, it also requires a large amount of fuel. When you cannot find a coal mine, wood is a necessary material for winter vacation.
This port has been temporarily named Heishui Port by Liu Ziyu, and it is derived from the Heishui Governor's Office established during the Li Tang Dynasty.
After only three or five days of Liu Ziyu's large army left, the soldiers who stayed here had contact with the local natives. The Huli people now have no large tribes. The tribes of three or five hundred people are all first-class and powerful. They can bring out hundreds of Ding Zhuangs of the past, and this is definitely a small bully in the region.
Seeing the troops of Liu Ziyu's army before, I didn't dare to show my head once. After knowing that Liu Ziyu's army left, I had contact with Heishui Port.
Three hundred fully armed elite soldiers, this force is absolutely powerful at this time, not to mention that they still have strong camps to rely on, but no matter how powerful these people are, they are still incomparable to the previous Liu Ziyu army.
The former completely crushed the surrounding Hulijie tribes, but the latter gave Hulijie people a feeling of being able to be ‘dialogue’.
The words of the people on both sides were completely out of touch. But the contact between the two sides began with exchanging things for things.
A sharp wrist-removing knife can exchange a bear skin from the hands of Huligai people. This trade is absolutely huge profit.
Once the transaction between the two parties is opened, the contact between the two sides will be quickly and closely linked. Huli Gairen could not refuse the iron tools of the Song army, salt and sugar, and even more so the strong wine of the Song people.
These are absolutely good things for the Huli Gai people. Unfortunately, the good things have the wealth they desire, and they also have extremely powerful force.
It is obvious that Huli Gairen has no intention of working for the Jurchens, and many Huli Gairen do not even know Liu Ziyu and others' specific goals.
But there were no idiots among them, and they knew very well how threat Liu Ziyu's tribe, who was traveling upstream along the Huntong River, could pose to the Jurchens.
But does this have anything to do with them?
The heads of these tribes are now more concerned about how to get benefits from them.
As for Huli Gai people, fur is really not rare. It is a reward from God to be able to exchange fur for many necessities needed for survival.
After half a month of time, when the first supply fleet arrived at the port, the Heishui Port had already changed.
Inside and outside the port, hundreds of defenders were working together in groups, driving about hundreds of laborers to build the entire port town. Some of these people were logging and processing wood, some were leveling the land and building adobe, and some were building wooden houses, docks and trestles and other facilities. The whole town was in full swing.
It is almost May when it is Blackwater Port, and the climate is getting warmer. This is the most comfortable season of the year.
The entire city is building forward at a fast speed.
As the commander of the supply fleet, Liu Guangshi looked curiously at a bunch of laborers working hard in the port. These people were treated significantly differently from prisoners of war and the Hokkien. They were generally not tall, but they were all very strong and strong, "What are these people?"
Just looking at physical fitness, it is a good seed for being a soldier.
"Commander Liu, they are natives nearby and are from Huligai." The commander of the defender immediately answered loudly after hearing this.
Liu Guangshi looked happy, "Have you gathered up Huli so quickly?" In this way, he would have lived in the Anton Protectorate in the future.
"It's not considered a contraction. It's just a simple transaction."
The guardian shook his head quickly, saying that he couldn't even speak, so what was he going to put it together?
Huli Gairen was photographed by Liu Ziyu's army before, so no one dared to provoke Heishui Port, which can be said to have laid a good foundation for it.
The other party came to contact each other carefully, and the guardian naturally greeted him with a smile, using some of the materials in his hands to trade them, and then used the materials to exchange for the other party's labor force. He is still in a very shallow communication.
However, Liu Guangshi had already got his own answer. He could use some small amount of materials to drive the indigenous people, which was really a very indigenous person.
The first goal of the Anton Protectorate was to eliminate the Jurchens, especially the Wanyan Jurchens. He had been a little hesitant before, thinking about whether he would do anything in Anton, because Liu Guangshi was afraid that the "working hard will be ineffective". The area outside the northeast is so vast that the remnants of the Jurchens would just go into the deep mountains and forests and try to clear them out, which would be really difficult.
But now, the Huli Gai people are so happy to be driven by it. Does that mean that Anton's natives have "harmed the Jurchen for a long time"? Later, the remnants of the Jurchens were eliminated. With these natives' support, the difficulty was reduced too much.
Liu Guangshi knew very well that he was the best choice to settle in Anton now, because this was the person on the dragon throne.
Although Zhao Gou had no good feelings for Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun and others, he didn't mind bringing these two people up again when the situation was getting better. What if these two people were also talents.
Those who don’t seek top-notch or even first-class people are the first-class people. As long as they are competent in the military and horse management, they will be a talent.
So, don’t worry about the level of the position, the Anton Protectorate is Liu Guangshi’s best destination.
If he chooses to give up here, then what he wants to give up is not a single position, but his future.
