Although there are differences among the Yao people, they may not even understand the language. But as long as Zhao Han accepts a Yao girl, he will definitely be able to get closer to all the Yao people, at least one more bond to bring the ethnic relationship closer!
In the Ming Dynasty, there were 857 Yao Mountains and 26 Yao Villages in Guangdong Province.
This data has not counted the 43 Yaoshan Mountains in Huaiji County, because Huaiji County belonged to Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty.
? If you want to consolidate the rule of Guangdong, the Yao people must be appeased, and marriage is the fastest way.
And those who are familiar with Yao, if they are willing to register as Qimin, they should be treated normally, and they cannot be discriminated against at will.
The productivity of the mature Yao people is not low. They not only master the terraced field technology, but also "focus on farming and weaving" according to historical records, especially good at weaving "Yao brocade". During the Zhengde period, they rebelled and even made their own Lvgong chariot to attack the city. Many Chinese craftsmen could not make that thing.
Traveling south by boat, Zhao Han chatted with the Yao envoys all the way.
Then he was surprised to find that there are still Yao villages in Guangdong, and there are also big landlords in Yao villages.
Of course, these Yao villages are the first to be used for surgery. Apart from retaining the customs, they have been almost Sinicized, and even most of the Yao people can speak Cantonese. Directly hit the landlords to divide the land, and then build a school, and you can immediately reap the hearts of the Yao people at the bottom!
"Brother," Pan Maiwei suggested, "in the future, Yao officials should not be appointed by military generals, nor by people who spend money to buy officials. They are all very bad. Every time the Yao people rebel, It was these bad officials who forced it."
Zhao Han smiled and said, "I know all about it."
Yaoguan is a common name, belonging to the state government and county government, and most of the official positions are governors and master books. They have no other power to rule the Yao people full-time.
There are three main sources:
First, individual Yao people attached to the government.
Second, appease or quell the Han Chinese who have been in chaos in Yao.
Third, the local Han people who spend money to buy officials.
No matter which one, once you become a Yao official, you will crazily exploit the Yao people.
This phenomenon also exists in other ethnic minorities, who have been oppressed for a long time.
After careful consideration, Zhao Han decided to appoint "Tianchang Gong" as Yaochang.
The powerful Yaozhang is similar to the mayor of the town; the weak Yaozhang is similar to the village head.
At the same time, in the state government and county government, there are special "pro-Yao officials". After the school is established, everything will be on the right track, and the teachers of the schools in the Yao district will be promoted as pro-Yao officials first.
? After disembarking in southern Jiangxi, Zhao Han crossed Meiling and arrived at Nanxiong Mansion in northern Guangdong. Chen Maosheng had been waiting for a long time.
Continue to go south by boat.
In the cabin, Zhao Han discussed the Yao nationality issue with Chen Maosheng, and then discussed the large number of Hakka people.
Chen Maosheng said: "The Hakka people believe in feng shui, but if they can't find a feng shui treasure, they would rather not bury their coffins. In addition, there are also phenomena such as selling graves and stealing burials, fighting for mountains and dragons, and repeated burials. Some time ago , Liu Zhu led 3,000 people to attack Xingning, and Xingning's defenders were only 3,000, and there were only 6,000 people in a big battle. At that time, the Hakka people in Xingning were also fighting. In order to fight for a cemetery, the two sides dispatched a total of 5,000 people Many people."
Zhao Han couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this.
The two battles were fought at the same time, both with a scale of about 6,000 people. One battle is for the county seat, and the other is for the cemetery.
Chen Maosheng also said: "Not only in Guangdong, the Hakka people also brought the bad customs of Fengshui to Jiangxi, and brought the locals of Jiangxi to ruin. The school in Ganzhou taught sages and sages, and they moved three times in a century. It is out of Feng Shui considerations. As long as Ganzhou does not have a Jinshi for many years, the local gentry will relocate the address of the school in series."
Zhao Han asked: "How do you think this vulgar custom should be combated?"
? Chen Maosheng said: "The first is to legislate, and the second is to educate."
?Including Chen Maosheng, many outsiders can't understand why the people in southern Jiangxi, western Fujian, and northeastern Guangdong stop their coffins and relocate them many times.
Some people's parents died, and they couldn't find a geomantic place where they could put the coffin for ten years. There are also some people who, when they find a better cemetery, dig out their parents and rebury them, five or six times. These practices have seriously violated traditional moral concepts, because it is generally believed that "it is safe to bury in the ground."
"Selling graves and stealing burials" is even more disgusting. Dig out the bones from other graves and bury the bones of your own relatives quietly, so that you can occupy this geomantic treasure land, and it is rumored that you can also take away the luck of the original grave owner's family.
Zhao Han handed over the "Big Fellowship Covenant": "Add a few articles yourself, and add items specifically for non-burial and re-burial."
Chen Maosheng flipped through a few pages and said with a smile: "This thing is very good."
Zhao Han said again: "It is necessary to rectify"Zhang Bingwen and Hu Mengtai looked at each other, both sighing.
If he seized the world, Zhao Han would be the emperor, and Chen Maosheng would be the Minister of Rites. But these two play cards, and the gambling money is calculated by "literature". Who can be so honest and frugal among rebels in ancient and modern times?
And those northwestern rogues, when they captured Fengyang, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng fell out because they robbed eunuchs and ritual and music supplies.
Comparing the two, we know that Zhao Han is capable of ruling the world.
"Touch! Eight ropes."
"Don't worry, I'm fooling around! Hahahaha!"
There were bursts of laughter on the deck, and the fleet sailed towards Shaozhou Mansion, and the envoys of the Yao nationality were all on the boat behind.
Today's cloudy weather, no sun, sweltering heat.
Zhao Han's vest was drenched with sweat, but he was very happy. He was waiting to go to Guangzhou to deal with the merchants, and he personally wooed Zheng Zhilong by the way.
As for Ba Pai Yao, tens of thousands of rebels have dispersed, and each row is rushing to the beauty pageant. They want to choose the most beautiful Sha Yaomei.
