Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 598 Champa style
Champa was called Linyi Kingdom in ancient Chinese documents, and it was also called Champa Kingdom because it was built by the Zhan people.

Zhanren's hometown was originally Xianglin County in Rinan County in the Han Dynasty of China.In 192 A.D. (one theory 137), the son of the meritorious Cao of Xianglin County, named Qu Kui (also known as Qu Da or Qu Lian, also known as Shili Moluo), killed the county magistrate, named himself king, and founded the Champa Kingdom .The king has all the power.Shili Moluo and subsequent monarchs tried to expand northward, and had frequent wars with the Chinese feudal dynasty that ruled northern Vietnam.But it also pays tribute to China from time to time and conducts trade.

Champa was deeply influenced by Indian culture, using South Indian script, and introduced Brahmanism and Buddhism from India (now Champa believe in Christianity), worshiped gods such as Shiva and Vishnu, and adopted a caste system.

This place is an important sea route connecting Southeast Asia, West Asia and other places. As a maritime transit trade station between China and Southeast Asia, India, and West Asia, the level of civilization is actually not low.And the people here also made a fortune by robbing merchant ships, and they had a high level of civilization and navigation skills.And Lin Yiguo also quickly made a fortune by blocking roads and robbery, and the most glorious moment of this place was ushered in the seventh century AD.

According to the original history, at the beginning of the eighth century AD, this group of white-eyed wolves who paid tribute to Comrade Li Xiaoer would turn their faces again like their ancestors, attack China and occupy our territory. Add obstacles to us on the Maritime Silk Road.

Because of its geographical location, it guards the sea route from China to the Balo Dynasty in Tianzhu (today's northeast India), Srivijaya (today's Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and the west of Kalimantan Island) and Heiyi Dashi. So the gang of turtles immediately realized that this place was an important transit point on the Maritime Silk Road, which could make them rich.

So when a space-time tourist set his sights on this place, the pragmatic Li Xiaoer immediately asked to be stationed here.However, they are obviously not very willing to welcome the arrival of the army of the Celestial Kingdom.And as a member of the tributary system, the great empire, which has always paid attention to its reputation, can't do anything about it.

Moreover, there were too many threats on land at that time, and Datang couldn't afford to teach them a lesson.However, since it is a national policy to go to sea to find the states of Australia and the United States, it is not acceptable to ignore them.Moreover, as sea-going ships become larger and their voyage capabilities become stronger and stronger, Lin Yiguo's behavior of plucking wild goose has dissatisfied a large number of people.

No matter whether it is an agent with a noble background or a sea merchant who has made a fortune from sea trade, they can't bear to let these aboriginals exploit themselves.In their opinion, what is Lin Yiguo?There is not even a Confucian temple or a family temple. Can a country composed of some tribal leaders be called a country?
Ever since, I don't know whether it was the empire's intentional indulgence or something, some professional soldiers pretended to be ordinary people, and the weapons and armor eliminated from the army slowly armed this group of businessmen.

Interestingly, there seems to be a tacit understanding on both sides.When entering the port of Datang, it will automatically disarm; when it goes out, it will be automatically armed again.The country has the dignity of the country, and some things cannot be done; but the private behavior of these merchants does not matter.

Anyway, the ruling class of the Tang Dynasty should keep their eyes open and blindly encourage them secretly through various channels, making the first batch of pioneers of Southeast Asian economic strategy become big merchants like Zhang Chunrui.

They came in groups, not only hiring Japanese, but also hiring Chenla people, Kunlun people (Malayan), and Javanese people who had enemies with Champa.Pay a very small price and let these poor foreigners work for themselves.

The germination of capitalism made these merchants show their blood, and used extremely bloody means to forcibly occupy coastal cities and ports.

In the face of hundreds of times the profit, all morality will be trampled!
After a preliminary bloody sweep, they worked out a set of effective management methods for colleges and universities.Through methods such as wooing the aborigines, cultural cleansing, and medical treatment, they quickly won people's hearts.And when Lin Yiguo's army came to sweep, something ridiculous happened.

A group of armed natives acted as the vanguard, and the high efficiency and firmness of the cement also made the city built by the Tang Dynasty unbreakable.After all, how could a group of Zhanren who couldn't fully arm themselves with iron weapons be Datang's opponent?Even if they are civilian armed forces, hang and beat them!
But it's okay if they don't fight, once they do, it will be completely confirmed.Datang quickly dispatched troops under the guise of protecting the overseas Chinese.Now it doesn't matter whether you like it or not, as the actual occupier, Tang Jun naturally settled here and built it as his own home.

The model of taking the private forces of the Tang Dynasty as the vanguard, provoking troubles and then letting the state take over was quickly replicated to Southeast Asian countries.This mode is also known as "Champa mode".Over the years, both the imperial court and these big merchants have been very familiar with this model, and it is still being upgraded.

After being baptized by civilization, these aborigines naturally yearn for Datang.This time they saw so many boats passing by in waves, they were instinctively excited.

Gao Qiao didn't even spend much effort, he picked a bunch of experienced people and brought them back to the medical center in the city.There, the men had to go through various medical tests, have their hair cut, and scrub themselves with soap before boarding the boat.

Although Datang has made great medical progress in recent years, the horror of infectious diseases made them have to be cautious.Especially when going to sea, once someone brings the disease on board, the crew of that ship will almost be over.

Zhang Chunrui traveled to sea all the year round, and he was very familiar with the handbook for going to sea jointly written by the empress and Taoist priest Sun Simiao. He would never make such a mistake.

When eating sea food, a small mistake may bring about annihilation of the whole army, so we must be cautious and careful.

After getting ashore, Zhang Chunrui entered Xianglin County built by the Tang people.Now that the old place has been conquered, it is natural to continue to use the previous name.As for whether the king of Linyi Kingdom is happy or not, they don't care.In the eyes of the Tang people, the whole of Southeast Asia will be theirs, it's just a matter of time.

Walking in the bustling Xianglin County, Zhang Chunrui is full of emotions.When they came here by boat, it was all barren.Most of the natives here are naked.Today, people of all colors are mixed here, but no matter what skin color they are, they all speak Datang dialect, rubbing shoulders together, and it is very lively.

The stable Xianglin County is a holy place yearned for by local indigenous people.The convenience brought by advanced civilization has changed this land unconsciously.Today's Xianglin County has become a bright pearl on the westward route.

The slightly salty sea breeze blows across Xianglin County, bringing a sense of freshness.It was dusk now, and the afterglow of the setting sun glowed red, dyeing the whole city into a golden red.

There is no curfew here, no rule of "doors must not be opened across the street", and there is a breath of freedom here.This made Zhang Da, a rich but little-status merchant in China, feel very comfortable.

Here, he can gain more respect than at home.The admiring eyes of these natives and Takahashi always gave him a little satisfaction.

He bought a grapefruit casually. Although the grapefruit here is not as good as the red heart grapefruit in China, it is edible for a person of his status.The pomelo here is very famous even in later generations, for its juicy and sweet flesh.The special geographical location and climate have created the great reputation of Hejing pomelo in later generations.Grapefruit, which is quite expensive in China, is not worth anything here.

After buying a pomelo, Takahashi behind him consciously stepped forward to help hold it.And Zhang Chunrui continued to wander around.Since it is a city near the sea, there are naturally a lot of fresh seafood.Relying on advanced fishing boats and fishing methods, you can always buy the seafood you want in this city.

These seafood caught from the sea do not require too much cooking, and can be eaten by simply blanching them in clean water.And maintain its delicious flavor to the greatest extent.Lao Zhang is from Zhejiang and Mingzhou.Since the advent of soy sauce, especially the soy sauce brewed from moldy broad beans, it has been loved by Mingzhou people.

The delicious seafood is scalded with clean water and then eaten with light soy sauce. It goes without saying that it is delicious.Especially the prawns that are abundant in this place, after cooking in this way, peel off the prawn shell, dip the crystal clear prawn meat with a little soy sauce, eat it in your mouth, the prawns are full of sex, and the trace amount of soy sauce is extremely delicious. Dadi raised the delicacy of shrimp meat to a higher level.

At dusk, a large number of fishing boats return to the shore, and it is the right time to buy seafood at this time.

As a foodie, Zhang Dashangjia has never been reserved on this point.Especially here overseas, he always likes to go into the market and pick the ingredients himself to cook in restaurants.Most importantly, the atmosphere here is very down-to-earth, without so many class divisions, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Takahashi followed behind obediently like a loyal guard, and a group of his compatriots lined up neatly. When the eyes of the natives swept over, they all straightened up in unison, as if they were particularly honored.He didn't care about his identity as a porter and thug at all, as if it was a special honor for his master to let them work.Especially the work of helping the host's family to carry things is what they like to do most.

Because this can best reflect their value of being reused.The so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, Zhang Dashang, who has no political status in the country, is a celebrity here.

And as subordinates of celebrities, these devils naturally feel honored.

The body is straight, the chin is slightly raised, and the eyes are looking straight ahead.But the irrepressible sense of honor on that face betrayed their hearts.

The setting sun gradually sank, and the small harbor town did not fall silent after a noisy day.The lights on the seaside are lit up, and there will be sea ships approaching here constantly these days.Although it is impossible to enter the port at night, the lights on the shore will not go out, guiding the direction for those who sail at night.

Zhang Chunrui and his party stayed here for three days, and after selling a little porcelain, glass, soap, etc., they collected a lot of camphor, sandalwood, lead and tin.After replenishing fresh water supplies, boarded the boat in the early morning of the fourth day, and headed for the next destination...

　In fact, the book is coming to an end. Originally, the author thought that it was almost the end of Li Shimin's death.The last volume was originally not designed with such a specific navigation content, because I was afraid that it would not meet everyone's taste.After all, it is a female frequency book. Girls are sensual, and should be more interested in emotions, so the author here originally wanted to convey it with a few strokes.Then in the last volume, I will finish the book after explaining some things about the heroine and the heroine being the masters.But I saw a big message, so I added these contents.However, the author's knowledge base has too little information on this aspect, so the recent chapters are quite tiring, because there are too many materials to check, and the author is a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Reasonable, the author read the materials for two days and slept for a total of six hours. I couldn’t write the last chapter yesterday, so it may be like this in the next few days. The update time will be a little out of time. Please bear with me!In addition, I also hope that everyone will leave a message. Are you interested in such content?If you don't like it, then the author will pick up a few important strategic locations and write them down, and then the book will be ready!Finally, thank you again for your long-term support and encouragement.The success of this book depends on everyone's support. Even a simple word of encouragement will make the author very happy.The new book is already in preparation and it is expected to be released next month. I hope everyone will continue to support me!This paragraph of text is written in "The author has something to say" and is not included in the main text, so there is no charge...
