Entering the end of October, the weather in Kyoto begins to turn cooler from the sweltering heat of summer. Lu Xuan is still sitting in Kyoto, but he doesn't have much to do now. Xun Yu was in charge of internal affairs, and Huang Zhong was in charge of military affairs. Together with Zhao Yun and others, everything was very stable.
On this day, Xun Yu came to Lu Xuan's camp and saluted: "Your Majesty!"
Lu Xuandao: "What's wrong with Wen Ruo?"
Xun Yu replied: "Reporting to your majesty, the results of this year's autumn harvest have been calculated, and the sweet potatoes have a bumper harvest. In addition, corn and potatoes have already had a bumper harvest in the Japanese country."
"We came to Japan last year, and the grain seeds shipped from China were planted on a large scale this year, and the Kyushu Island area has a good harvest. After next spring, I plan to further promote it on Honshu Island."
Xun Yu said: "All areas must be promoted."
Lu Xuan nodded and said in approval: "This is a good thing. Only when there is food in the place can we have a solid foundation. Without food, our stomachs will not be full. Even if we recruit more people, we will not be able to truly establish a foothold in the Japanese country."
Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty is right!"
With a look of emotion on his face, he said: "Speaking of the governance of the Japanese country, thanks to Your Majesty for leaving Tsukauma Kazuo and Momotani Tadashi. These two people are familiar with the situation in the Japanese country, especially Tsukauma Kazuo, who knows the local Japanese very well."
"With the participation of Tsukauma Kazuo, only a steady stream of Japanese captives can be sent back to the country this year. According to statistical data, the number of Japanese male slaves sent back to the country is no less than 150,000 or 60,000."
"For now, we can't find any Japanese male slaves."
"On the one hand, there are about 200,000 Japanese slaves who were sent away one after another. On the other hand, although there are still a few people, they all fled into the mountains and became savages."
"The current Japanese state is mainly composed of people who have migrated from the country. Domestic people have already accounted for the majority. These people are farming locally and serving as local officials. It is already running well."
Xun Yu's eyes were bright and he continued: "In general, the development of the Japanese country is going well. In addition, the local governance planning and adjustments made by the minister have also been formalized, and the basic grassroots structures of counties, counties, townships, and li have been established. Thanks to His Majesty’s foresight, countless people came to Japan and were able to take control of the local area.”
Lu Xuan said: "All of this is thanks to Wen Ruo's outstanding talent. If it weren't for your painstaking efforts, there would be no current harvest and the stability of the Japanese country."
Xun Yu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you have given me the reward."
Lu Xuan asked: "Based on the current development, how long does Wen Ruo think it will take for the Japanese country to truly develop?"
"At least more than ten years!"
Xun Yu answered without thinking.
Lu Xuan said in a deep voice: "A large number of domestic people have entered, and merchants have come to Japan to promote development. In addition, Japan's sea goods have slowly developed and are being transported back to the country, setting off some business boom."
"The Japanese country is still doing well now."
"It's just that I think that more than ten years is not enough because the population base of Japan is too small. It is impossible for the domestic population to come continuously, and it will still take a certain amount of time. Generally speaking, fertility needs to be encouraged in Japan."
Lu Xuan felt that ten years was too little.
If the population is large and the territory is vast, it will definitely develop rapidly. The Japanese country does not have this prerequisite.
Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I have made arrangements."
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "Wenruo will work hard this winter. We will go back together at the beginning of next year. But everyone has to evacuate. Who do you think is the most suitable person to stay and be responsible for the governance of the Japanese country?"
Xun Yu thought for a while and said: "Xinpi is suitable. He has been with me for more than a year and has worked hard and is very familiar with the government affairs of Japan. I think that Xinpi can be arranged to serve as the governor of Japan."
Lu Xuandao said: "The candidate for the governor of Wazhou is Sun Quan, but as the governor of Wazhou, he does not care about military affairs and leaves it to the governor of Japan. If Wen thinks it is appropriate, I will talk to him and let him prepare to stay in Japan."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Xun Yu replied respectfully.
He was thinking about leaving, so he asked: "Your Majesty, after we leave Japan, where will we go next?"
Lu Xuandao: "The general probability is that it should be Tianzhu. For the specific situation, we need to wait until we return to China in the next step and understand the situation of coming to Tianzhu before we can make a judgment."
Xun Yu said: "I obey your order!"
He got up and left to arrange the next things, because before leaving, many things had to be properly arranged.
After Xun Yu left, Lu Xuan arranged for someone to notify Xin Pi.
Xinpi surrendered when he was in Qingzhou. Then, following Kuai Liang's order, he returned to work under Yuan Shao and became an internal agent. Now, it is actually possible to send Xinpi out to serve as the governor of Japan.
Not long after, Xinpi entered the camp. When he saw Lu Xuan, he saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Xinpi, pay homage to your Majesty."
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "Xin Qing is in Japan these days. How do you feel about it?"
When Xin Pi heard this, his mind changed and his heart suddenly became alive.
There is a saying circulating in the court, that is, if you are not afraid that the emperor will come to chat with you, you are afraid that the emperor will not come to you.
The emperor is looking for you, which means an opportunity has come.
Xin Pi solemnly said: "Reporting to your majesty, although the Japanese country is a barbaric country, it is very poor in all aspects, including farming, education, and business. However, precisely because everything starts from the beginning, it is more meaningful."
"So, I think the Japanese country is pretty good."
"Being able to run this place, watching the place change little by little, watching the people getting better little by little, makes me feel proud in my heart. Foreign barbarians bathed in Chinese teachings, followed Chinese etiquette, and became part of China. , truly opening up new territories is also the ideal and ambition of a scholar.”
There was also a hint of excitement in Xinpi's words.
Lu Xuandao: "Xin Qing, Tokugawa Ieyasu was killed, and the war in the Japanese country was almost peaceful. Many Japanese tribes were wiped out. What is needed in the follow-up is to work hard to penetrate the stone, and continue to open up the Japanese country bit by bit."
"It is no longer necessary for me to stay in the Japanese state. When I evacuate, Xun Yu and others will also evacuate. The Japanese state is renamed as the Japanese state, and Sun Quan is appointed as the governor. The specific administration is responsible for the long history. Are you willing to stay in the Japanese state and govern it? place?"
"I am willing!"
Simpi answered without thinking.
At home, he was no match for Lu Xuan's original team. In addition, compared to these people under Cao Cao, he can't compare. Xinpi is willing to stay in Japan now.
The governor's history is actually the right of the governor. He has done a good job in Wozhou. In the future, when he is transferred back to China, he will most likely work in the central government.
This is the best arrangement.
Lu Xuan nodded, waved his hand and said: "Go and hand over to Xun Yu, and prepare to fully take over the Japanese country."
"Here!"
Xinpi saluted and turned to leave.
Lu Xuan also arranged many other things, one by one, to complete the handover of the Japanese country ahead of schedule.
Time passed, and another year passed in the blink of an eye. Spring began in February of the new year. Everything in the Japanese country had changed. Xinpi had stabilized the place after taking over. Lu Xuan left Zhu Zhi to assist Sun Quan, while Xinpi was in charge of military affairs and in charge of Wozhou.
Lu Xuan led the army to evacuate, left Kyoto, and began to return to Nanjing.
