At the end of July of the third year of Yonglu (1560 AD), under the personal control of Zhengliang's son Huiliang, Luo's legitimate son, after nearly a year of rectification and development, the newly occupied Nanjiuzhou area of the Luo family finally stabilized last year. ←
During this period, with the implementation of the Luo Family Law in Nan Kyushu, a lot of commotion was naturally caused, which forced Luo Family Huiliang to quickly issue a bloody order, causing bloody storms in the local area. Of course, the main participants in the riots were the local wealthy families and temple shrine forces. As for the general public who occupied the largest proportion, the Luo Family Law was extremely beneficial to it, and thus became the biggest supporter of the Luo Family.
With the continuous deepening of the Luo family rules, with the efforts of Luo family Huiliang and various institutions of the Luo family, since the second half of this year, the local commotion has long disappeared. Especially with the migration of a large number of local wealthy forces to the Luo family territory outside the Southern Kyushu, and the migration of a large number of people from other regions of the Luo family have entered. Due to the reward, they have become retainers of the new lords in some areas of the Southern Kyushu, and the continuous settlement of refugees who have defected from outside the Luo family territory have completely changed the original structure of the Southern Kyushu, and the Nan Kyushu area has finally gradually integrated into the Luo family's ruling system.
Therefore, with the efforts of the Inner Affairs Cabinet, the procuratorial and local work of the Satsuma Kingdom, Osuki and Hyuga Kingdom in Mikuishu were finally achieved. As the internal affairs cabinet of the Ro family, Heiji Togo, who was in power, naturally reported to Masara.
"Master. After this inspection, the Interior Cabinet has initially evaluated that the total income of the Satsuma State in the Mian Kyushu is about 280,000 shi, Osumi State is about 170,000 shi, and Hinata State is about 170,000 shi. The above is the income situation of the Mian Kyushu after this inspection. With the continuous development in the future, it is estimated that the income in various places will change more in the future." The income here refers to all incomes including fields, minerals, commerce, etc.
"In terms of population, the total population of Satsuma is about 150,000, including more than 30,000 young and strong people. More than 60,000 children are; Osumi country has a total of about 100,000, including more than 40,000 young and strong people and more than 30,000 children; Hinata has a total of about 110,000 young and strong people, including more than 40,000 young and strong people and more than 20,000 children; In addition, according to the lord's instructions, the Interior Government has also moved more than 20,000, more than 10,000, and more than 40,000 Ming immigrants to Satsuma, Osumi country and Hinata's junior high school respectively. The above is the demographic statistics of the local area this time, but at this time, there are still many refugees who have defected to their families to settle in the local area. It is estimated that the local population situation will soon have new changes."
"In terms of mineral deposits, the two gold mines that were originally mined before were in the inner city of Satsuma and the two gold mines near Satohara, Hinata, have also started to be mined again under the control of our slave team. As for other mineral deposits, Li Hongfei, the mine is also being investigated everywhere."
"In terms of the workshop, in accordance with the order of the lord, in order to facilitate the construction of march avenues in various parts of the South Kyushu and fortifications such as water conservancy facilities, the Inner Government has also established a cement workshop in the Satsuma State, and the workshop has also been put into use."
"In terms of ports, Yakushima on the outside of the Osumi Strait has officially become the foreign trade port of our family and is also one of the bases of our navy. In this way, we already have Yakushima in Osumi, Ishiye Port in Iyu, Tsuma Island, and Nagamon Island as our foreign trade ports, and they are also the military ports of our navy; in addition, Imari Bay in Himeshima is the shipbuilding port base, and Kawatsu Bay is the training base of our navy."
Judging from the population proportion in the Mian Kyushu area, there are obviously not many young and strong people. This is mainly because Mian Kyushu had experienced a long period of fierce fighting, resulting in a large number of young and strong men being killed by the young and strong men. Moreover, when the Shimazu family was transferred to the northern part of the Ishui Kingdom, many young and strong people in the Satsuma Kingdom were taken away, which caused such a situation.
According to Heiji Togo, the three places in the Mikugo Satsuma Kingdom, Osumi Kingdom, and Hinata Kingdom have a total income of 620,000 shi, and there are more than 35 people in terms of population. If you can achieve such a result, Masaro is naturally satisfied with the Battle of Mikugo, which has been going through two years since preparation to the end.
At the same time, Zhengliang also recalled the income and population situation of the Luo family territories that he had just seen before, among which, in terms of income.
Feiqian Country, where the Luo family started, has undergone significant changes in its income after more than ten years of development. In 1540, its income was 310,000 shi. By 1549, its income had risen to 450,000 shi, 550,000 shi in 1556, and the most recent inspection in last year (1559) reached 610,000 shi. The reason for such a large income change is mainly because with the changes in time, the laws of the Luo family have been continuously deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, making the local agriculture, fishery, commerce, handicrafts, cultural industries, and catering industries increasingly developed in the local area, forming a good economic system that promotes mutual circulation, and thus there have been such significant changes.
Similar to Feiqian Kingdom, the Zhuhou Kingdom, which was also occupied by the Luo family's early days of its founding, had a significant change in the income of Feiqian Kingdom. Among them, the income of Zhuhou Kingdom in 1544 was 270,000 stones, the income in 1549 increased to 330,000 stones, the income in 1556 was 410,000 stones, and the most recent inspection in the early year of this year (1559) was 460,000 stones. In Feiqian Kingdom, the income in the four years was 1545, 1549, 1556, 1559 was 340,000 stones, 370,000 stones, 480,000 stones, and 530,000 stones.
The changes in the country of Chuqian, Fengqian, Fengqian, and Iki Island, which were occupied by the Luo family in the middle of their family's family were also quite large. Among them, Chuqian's income in the past three years was 340,000, 420,000, and 460,000, and 1559; Fengqian's income in the past three years was 140,000, 210,000, and 240,000, and 1549, 1556, 1559; Fengqian's income in the past three years was 370,000, 450,000, and 480,000, 1549, 1556, 1559.
In terms of Iki Island, its income in the entire island was only 15,000 shi in 1549, but by last year (1559), the income of the entire island had risen to 50,000 shi. You should know that Iki Island is a small area. Moreover, there are many mountains and dense forests on the island, with a small arable land area and a small population. The reason for such a huge income change is mainly due to the following reasons:
First, after the island became the territory of the Luo family, not only did the Luo family move in and settle in, but also vigorously promoted the laws of the Luo family;
Second, after the Nishiko area of Tsushima and the Ouchi family became the territory of the Luo family, Iki Island, which was originally a defensive frontier, and its surrounding waters suddenly became the inland sea of the Luo family, allowing it to develop fisheries and forestry safely and vigorously;
Third, because it became the inland sea of the Luo family, it also became a transit station for trade between Tsushima Island and North Korea and Ming merchants. Many merchants would use the island as a temporary warehouse for storing goods, and many merchants within the Luo family would pass through the island, which also increased the prosperity of the island;
Finally, because a kind of bison survives in the dense forests of the island, with the support of the Luo Family Home Office Pavilion, many local consular residents simply started to catch bison, domesticate bison to plow ox, and even grazle cattle. You should know that the price of plowing ox during the Warring States Period was very high. This naturally increased the income of the island.
The above areas are the total revenue of the territory occupied by the Luo family after the Luo family started. In recent years, the Luo family has successively occupied Nagato, Zhou Fangguo, Anyiguo, Tsushima and other places.
In the Nagamon Kingdom, although the Luo family currently only accounts for about four-fifths of the country's area (the remaining one-fifth is divided by the powerful families of the Nagamon Kingdom headed by Yoshimiya), its income in 1556 was 120,000 shi, while by 1559 last year, its income had increased to 140,000 shi.
Although the country has Tori Island hanging on the coast of Nagamon Kingdom, as a maritime trade with Ishimiku and Anyunguo in the east, due to the heavy storms in the waters in the region and frequent maritime accidents in ships, ordinary merchants first choose to trade on the coast by land. Unfortunately, since the Nizi family, Yoshimiku and Mori families are currently fighting for the silver mines of Ishimiku, which seriously hindered the smooth flow of the coastal land trade routes to the Luo Family in the Luo Family, such as Ishimiku and Anyunguo, so the income has not increased much.
Similar to Nagato, in Anyi, the Luo family also occupied only about three-fifths of the area (the remaining two-fifths of the area were occupied by the Maori family), and its income in 1556 was 150,000 shi, while by 1559 last year, its income had increased to 160,000 shi.
As for Zhou Fangguo, which was occupied by the Luo family, his income in 156 was 160,000 shi. By 1559, his income had increased to 190,000 shi.
From the income changes in Nagamon, Anyi and Zhou Fangguo, it can be seen that the income increase is not much. This is mainly because these areas have just experienced several civil wars and external invasions, and have just been occupied by the Luo family for only three years, so it will take a relatively long time to restore and develop.
In Tsushima Island, since it was the main place for the Luo family to trade with North Korea and Ming merchants, and compared with the Iki Island behind it, it had a larger area and more cultivated land, so its income was quite good. In 1556, its income was only 20,000 shi. By 1559 last year, its total income had increased to 60,000 shi.
Of course, in addition to appealing these areas, the Luo family actually controlled some territories in the western part of the Beihou Kingdom and the northern part of the Yiyu Kingdom. However, these territories were all important border areas of the Luo family, and the military camp system was implemented (there were no hierarchical people in these areas, and the local fields were cultivated by local defenders). Moreover, according to the Luo family's laws, the local area would only implement the common farming technology during the Warring States Period, and no advanced Luo family technology and crops would be implemented in these areas (mainly for confidentiality). Therefore, the total income of these areas was only more than 10,000 stones.
