Tanegashima was not mentioned in the Kagoshima Treaty, so there is no need for Hua Jun to mention it. Anyway, it has been completely occupied, and it does not need the Satsuma domain to admit it.

The people from Satsuma Domain were also lazy to mention it. Anyway, if Dahua was mentioned, it would be impossible to return Tanegashima to the Zishima clan, which would only add to the embarrassment.

After the treaty was signed, Kojima Rongkang, a neglected daimyo, could only find a corner to cry alone, and then went to the custom shop to find the comfort of his mother, Sang.

A young and beautiful woman relies on her beauty, and an older mother, Sang, relies on her endless tenderness.

For those who have been psychologically battered and traumatized, this kind of mother san is more popular than a young girl.

After the Kagoshima Treaty was signed, the Chinese army left 3,000 people in Kagoshima, and the rest moved to Ibusuki City.

The Fuso people in Ibusuki City did not have too strong resistance to this. Anyway, they did not identify much with the Shimadzu clan of the Satsuma domain.

Shimadzu Mitsuhisa was too ruthless to collect taxes, and many people even hated that Shimadzu Mitsuhisa could die sooner.

At first, the Fusang people did not resist, but with the arrival of the Dahua merchant ship, they became happy.

In the past, a piece of cloth in Fusang cost three taels of silver, while Dahua’s cloth cost two taels.

The prices of the two places are very different.

After all, in Fusang, it is easier to pick up a piece of silver in the mountains than to spin a piece of cloth.

Prices have been greatly reduced, and the locals are naturally full of joy.

This means that they can live a better life later on.

In the past, I might only be able to hang a piece of linen on my body, but now I may be able to wear a decent dress.

Don't underestimate this little change, it's quite effective in improving happiness, especially for women.

However, two taels of silver is also a huge amount for ordinary people, and most of them still cannot afford it.

So what to do?

Dahua will tell them not to worry, Dahua's father is absolutely caring and loving.

Dahua merchants promised that they would buy the yarn from the Fuso people at a high price and encourage them to grow mulberry trees.

At the same time, Dahua businessmen will also provide them with jobs and let them go to Shanghai to work.

Men go to build roads, and women go to textile factories, earning as much as two yuan and one yuan a month, plus room and board.

This price is twice as cheap as recruiting locals in Shanghai.

And the people of Ibusuki may not earn two yuan a year in Ibusuki, so the merchants of Dahua are happy, and so are the people of Fuso.

Hearing this news, many Fusang people were moved.

After all, in Fusang farming, after paying taxes for one year, there is almost no balance left.

And to work in Dahua, not only food and accommodation, but also a dozen taels of silver a year. Even the woman accepts the other party, which is a considerable advantage.

In Fusang, except for custom shops, there is no longer a sideline that women can do.

Not all women are willing to go to the custom shop, even if they go to the custom shop, it is more profitable to go to the custom shop of Dahua.

Of course, not all Fusang people will be tempted. Some people do not dare to travel across the ocean to Dahua easily out of fear of the unknown.

There are also some people who are concerned about language problems, fearing that it will be inconvenient to live in Dahua.

Others are wary of going to foreign countries and are easily bullied.

In short, there are many reasons, and everyone will have their own considerations and choices.

But in general, there will be many people who will go to Dahua. It is human nature to yearn for a better life.

At Ibusuki port, nearly a thousand Fuso people are preparing to board the ship.

Among them, women are the majority.

They are workers who are about to go to Shanghai.

Sahako is one of them, and she is full of fear for the future.

But she had no choice, because if she didn't get on the boat, her family would sell her to a custom shop.

It's impossible not to sell, her family has been unable to open the pot, and Shimadzu Mitsuhisa recently added a national disaster tax.

When this happens, ordinary people can only sell their sons and daughters.

Compared to being sold to a custom shop, Zohezi chose to work in Dahua's factory.

Although the money may be less, at least you don't have to face different men every day.

When going to Dahua, Dahua's businessmen will also pay a salary in advance to help her family tide over the difficulties.

It was for various reasons that she set foot on the ship to Dahua.

For a woman like her, it would cost six or seven hundred.

Everyone got on the boat, and the topic became Dahua.

They were all curious about where they were going.

"I heard that Dahua is full of gold, and the food that can't be eaten is thrown everywhere."

a woman said.

If it is so outrageous, there are still many people who believe it.

"I heard that Dahua's women don't have to work. If we also find a Dahua man to marry, can we not work every day and still have food?"

another woman said.

"Aren't you afraid of marrying a big Chinese? You can't understand what they say."

"If you don't understand, you can learn it. I'm learning the dialect very quickly. After I stayed in Edo for two months, I learned Kanto dialect."

"I just want to earn more money in the factory and send it home."

......

Sahezi listened to everyone's discussion, her mood was much better, and she was less worried.

The optimistic attitudes of others affected her and made her

I don't think Dahua should be that scary.

After more than two days of wandering at sea, they finally arrived in Shanghai.

Looking at the ships going in and out of Shanghai Port, these Fusang women opened their mouths one by one, speechless in surprise.

In Ibusuki, they had seen fishing boats that could seat a dozen people at most.

This time, Dahua's merchant ship was already the largest ship they had ever seen.

They originally thought that this was the largest ship in the world.

However, when they came to Shanghai, they discovered that the boat they were on was only considered to be average.

Some boats as high as several stories passed by them, causing them to raise their heads involuntarily.

Countless large ships were only the first shock Dahua gave them.

The goods on the dock made them even more dazzled.

They really couldn't figure out how many people needed to use up so many goods.

After getting off the boat, they were taken to a collective dormitory.

Then, three days of language training must be given to them, not requiring them to master communication skills, at least some basic instructions must be able to understand.

For example, yes, no, continue, stop and other words, they need to master some.

After language training, they are also trained in skills.

Spinning and weaving with a machine is also a skill, but this skill is relatively simple and can be learned easily.

Once you have learned the basic skills, you can work formally, work during the day and learn Chinese at night.

What Dahua wants is for them to be fully integrated, and it is absolutely impossible not to speak Chinese.

At such a high price, these factories will not lose money.

Because these female workers signed a ten-year contract and could be squeezed for many years.
