Chapter 1086 Zhengliang's ambition
"Sir, the guest is here!"
A sound suddenly sounded outside a thatched hut in the Hokkaido region of Hokkaido. ≥ As the sound rang out, Masamune Luo in the thatched hut slowly opened his eyes.
During the previous avalanche, he and several people around him were flooded by the rolling snow piles. Fortunately, this avalanche not only scared the wild wolves following them in the rear, but also attracted the attention of the local leaders who happened to be hunting nearby, which led to the timely digging out of the snow by Masajong Luo's family and others.
Among the several people buried in the avalanche, only a few were frostbite, but none died. After arriving at the destination, under the arrangement of the locals, the Luo family Masato Sect was able to rest for a day and night. Now, it must be that the other party's patriarch came to ask for a meeting, so he immediately said to the door of the thatched hut: "Please come in!"
Not long after, Matsusaburo accompanied a strange-looking person and walked in from outside the door and introduced to Masato Rao:
"Sir, this is the head of Hazard!"
"It is my honor to be able to receive your reception. Dear lord!" Hazard, with red hair and green eyes, used humility that was extremely disproportionate to his rough appearance, and stroked his chest with his hands and bowed respectfully to Masato Rakra, but even so, he was much better than Masato Rakrakra.
"I'm so grateful to you in such a sudden way, and I've been helped by you before, so I can't escape from danger!" The Masato Sect of the Luo family apologized and thanked Hazard with the humility of being the superior. The main purpose of the Luo family's Masato Sect of the Luo family came here this time was to win over this ethnic group called the Ainu people.
Of course, this was what the Lord Zhengliang told when their third expedition team set out. Although it was not clear how Lord Zhengliang understood the situation here so much, and knew that in this vast and sparsely populated but extremely backward area, there was such a group that had been bullied by the Warring States rich people such as the following countries, the Oyzaki family, and other Warring States periods for a long time.
According to the original introduction of the Lord Zhengliang, most areas of the Emirate are settlements of the Ainu people. The archipelago in the north, known as the Thousand Islands Islands by Lord Zhengliang, also has many different ethnic groups. The local Warring States tribes in the Emirate are actually only located in the narrow zone in the southern part of the Emirate.
Moreover, due to its vast area and many undeveloped areas, although there is no shortage of resources, agriculture, commerce, etc. are very underdeveloped. Various materials such as food and weapons need to be purchased from the outside wealthy families. The only rich resources are fishery, especially salmon, silver carp, kumbu, etc. In addition, wild animals' fur, eagle feathers, etc. are also specialties in the place. However, because they have been bullied by the Warring States tribes outside for a long time, they often have disputes with those tribes.
Although this place is nominally occupied by the Anton family, it is actually in the hands of the Oyzaki family and the Sei country. Especially now, from Matsusararo, the Masamune of the Luo family has learned that as the Oyzaki family gradually grows, it has conflicts with the Sei country, which has just been killed by the Anton family, and the two families are about to confront each other.
Under such circumstances, Masajong of the Luo family just followed the original methods of the Lord Zhengliang and took the initiative to win over the Ainu people who were oppressed by the Oyzaki family and the Xia country for too long. Then, with the help of the Ainu people, he defeated the Oyzaki family and the Xia country and became the new owner of the Hokki region.
Of course, although Masajong of the Luo family, who is 31 years old this year, has learned a lot of things from Zhengliang because he has been following Zhengliang for a long time and is now one of the important officials of the Luo family. This time he has taken on the important task of opening up a new territory in the Hokkien region, but at this time he did not know that after he followed Zhengliang's plan and prepared to join forces with the Ainu people to fight for control of the Hokkien region, he started a journey of introducing the Ainu people into the Warring States Period.
After all, the Ainu people are a tribe and a complex social group! A small society enters a large society, and the conflict, adaptation, integration, and change between them is a trend that will definitely happen. In history, there were both the occurrence of the Han people in the Central Plains assimilation of the Xianbei and Shatu, and the precedent of the Germanic migration to destroy the Roman Empire. The Luo family Masajong naturally didn't know what he did, and although Zhengliang, who came up with this method, knew this, since he had introduced hundreds of thousands of Ming immigrants and his descendants in Jiuzhou to the Warring States system, he naturally would not mind introducing the Ainu people into the long history of the Warring States Period.
Anyway, the Ainu people's ethnic group was very miserable even in later generations, almost reaching the level of extermination. Even if the race was finally continued, it was still treated as servants by the local Japanese in later generations. Now Masayoshi wants to change the historical trajectory of their race.
After all, some Japanese in later generations were too shameless and cold-blooded. Masayoshi wanted to neutralize the bad nature of the Japanese in his heart by introducing Ming and Ainu people, and even erase those bad people.
Perhaps when he first came to this Warring States Period, Zhengliang did not dare to speak nonsense, but with the strength of the Luo family, Zhengliang really had the ability to slowly put this idea into action. Now, the Luo family Masatozong, who was born in his small surname, came to the settlement of the Ainu people with this goal and officially started Zhengliang's goal journey.
"Your sir is able to come to this bitter and cold place in the extreme north for us to see your sincere heart! Due to the many obstacles on the road, we are even more grateful!" In the thatched hut, facing the thanks of the Luo family Masajong, Hazard immediately spoke sincerely and responded sincerely.
At this time, Hazard obviously knew the general identity of the Luo family Masato Sect, but since they did not understand the situation in the south, they could only deal with the Luo family Masato Sect carefully.
In the eyes of Masato Sect, although Hazard's accent is very strange and has some habitual snoring sounds, his words are quite appropriate. Perhaps because of his long-term external contact work, he seems reasonable and good at adapting. With such a person working in the middle and running-in, his actions here should be much smoother this time.
"Before, our tribe has been taken care of by your side, which has solved our most urgent needs. We will never forget the way you have given you!" Just as the Masato Sect of Luo Family was thinking, Hazard continued to thank him. Luo Wu had indeed maintained trade with the Azect of the Hazard tribe for a long time before, and it was precisely because both sides established a foundation of trust in this way that the people of Luo Family were able to visit this trip.
"Business is business, integrity is the basis, and mutual benefit is the principle. It is impossible to say who thanks whom! In the long-term trade cooperation with you, we have also made huge profits." Although we knew that the other party's gratitude would be conducive to further consultations, Masato Sect of Luo also knew that dealing with people from these ethnic groups with a condescending attitude would definitely cause disgust, so he said seriously:
"Although the north is cold and the roads are far away, the production in the south is extremely valuable! You occupy this treasure land and reliably accumulate strength. It will not be difficult to open up a vast world in time."
"I'm too proud, and the hard work here is not worthy of being told by outsiders!" Facing the description of Luo's Masajong, Hazard shook his head and showed a helpless smile on his face, "The land of the Estuary is cold and freezing, and there is only less than five months a year to cultivate! Although the land is fertile, the water conservancy is scarce, and the crops produced are really limited. Although this clan is good at animal husbandry, the aquatic plants of the Estuary are really... really..." He couldn't think of what kind of adjective to use for a moment.
"If we provide support to the nobles here and cooperate with both sides, what do you think?" Luo Shi Masajong suddenly said at this time.
"Ah?" Hazard obviously did not expect that Masato Sect of Luo would mention this sensitive topic so quickly. He was a little stunned. After waking up, he looked at Masato Sect of Luo hesitantly and said, "Sir, this? Are you?"
"Haha." Faced with Hazard's hesitation, Masatozong of Luo said with a smile, "I am here to seek cooperation. The reason why I say this is because I am not planning to leave any 'trump card' in my hand! Perhaps the cooperation proposed by me is a choice between life and death for both of us, so I do not want to have any suspicion between each other! Of course, I am not hoping to get any promises immediately. Maybe I am here to stay with you for a while and give a detailed explanation to the tribe members here in person."
"Do you hope that the cooperation between us will be carried out in that field?" Seeing that Luo's Masato Sect was so straightforward, Hazard no longer hesitated, so he asked immediately.
Rao Masajong did not immediately answer Hazard's question, but asked back: "Your current situation is full of difficulties, right?"
"Yes!" Hazard nodded and admitted, without any intention of hiding it.
"So do you want to get rid of it?"
"This dream is always the case!"
"Okay, that means that we both have the preliminary foundation for cooperation!" Luo Shi Masazong stood up slightly, supported the table with his hands and stared at Hazard in front of him, "Is the eagle willing to be tied up with wings? Is the Cang Wolf willing to spend his life in the cave like a mouse? Is the king giant bear on the snow field satisfied with filling his belly with moss on the frozen soil?"
"Your meaning... I understand!" After a while of silence, Hazard nodded heavily, "But as the Lord said just now, such a decision is tantamount to a life-and-death choice for the tribes below! So please forgive me, I must take a long time to consider and coordinate."
"I understand and agree with this!" Luo's Masatozong showed enough magnanimity and enthusiasm, "No matter what the final result is, this is a good opportunity for us to deepen our understanding between each other!"
"Thank you for your understanding!"
