Chapter 761: Japan's Policy
After perfecting part of the plan, Chen Xi convened a collective meeting of the Government Affairs Office.
Although everyone works together, usually not everyone is there unless necessary.
They were all surprised that Chen Xi deliberately called them together this time.
When Chen Xi brought out the human trafficking plan, they were even more surprised.
"Human trafficking? Is this the solution you came up with to solve the population problem?" Li Ru looked at Chen Xi in surprise. Could this guy really be darker than them if he were cut open?
It is really outrageous that such a cruel thing could come from Chen Xi's hand.
No one in the Government Affairs Office said anything. What a joke! Chen Xi has been criticized so badly recently. Is he planning to flip the table?
Look at the outrageous remarks here.
First, they killed 10 million people as a warning, then relocated children from Japan to various places in batches, and finally, they took those who broke the law and some of the upper class in Japan to the Northeast to farm.
The core of the whole story is just two words - cannibalism.
In response to Li Ru's question, Chen Xi nodded.
He has no good solution to the population problem. Encouraging the population, improving medical care, and raising living standards are already the limits of what can be done in this era, or the limits of what can be achieved by human beings.
The problem is that these will not produce results in a short period of time. It takes at least fifteen or sixteen years from the time a person is born to the time he or she can barely use their equipment. From the country's perspective, this process is terribly slow and the resources invested are also terribly slow.
Moreover, this was an era when a person's name was worth less than grass. The reason why they were willing to accept the Hu people into the Han Dynasty was also out of this consideration, in order to obtain quick labor.
It is actually very easy for everyone to accept the fact that Japan is trafficking in people. After all, it is more or less a waste to let the young and strong people who have been raised with great effort do the most basic farm work.
However, if we buy people from outside to do such basic farm work and their people are responsible for management, we can save resources and costs to the greatest extent possible and improve social welfare at the same time. Why not do it?
"I agree with this, but I think relocation is not necessary for the time being. After we conquer Japan, we can directly impose military control, and then select the restless people to be centralized in the Northeast until the overall Japanese society is stable, and then gradually relocate the population for education. How about that?"
Cheng Yu immediately expressed his opinion. The plan that Chen Xi came up with was exactly what he wanted. Such decisive measures should be used to deal with the barbarians.
"If I remember correctly, there are also a lot of captives and people in Kushan. Can we still think of ways to start from there?" Jia Xu said, touching his chin.
"If we do it right, we can develop a whole group of lower limits."
The corner of Chen Xi's eye twitched. He listened to what these words were. Isn't this the routine of stationing US troops in Japan, developing public intellectuals, and cultural invasion?
"Yes!" Although it was twitching, it was useful after all, so Chen Xi directly added what he had just said into the plan.
"Also, tell me your opinions!"
"Why don't we send people from Goryeo to trade with Japan first, and then support Goryeo to fight against Japan, while we just stand by and watch?" Sima Yi said after pondering for a moment.
"Brilliant, really brilliant! This trick of diverting conflict is well used!" Jia Xu clapped his hands and cheered after hearing it. In his opinion, Sima Yi's idea was just like driving a tiger to devour a wolf.
"Limited Xiao Xiba and limited Xiao Sakura, right!" Chen Xi nodded and had to admit that this was indeed a good idea.
The best way to prevent two ungrateful people from appearing at the same time is to let them become enemies first. This way, they will never be able to trust each other, and the contradiction between the rulers and the ruled will be directly transferred to the shelf, causing them to split internally.
"Why don't we learn from the system of the Kushans, assign specific tasks to specific groups, and then make temporary adjustments later?" Chen Qun said.
"I have studied the Brahmin social system. Although their social division of labor has many disadvantages, its advantages are obvious."
"As expected of you, the Nine-Rank System is really ingrained in you. In such a good environment of the Han Dynasty, you can still come up with this thing. It's really admirable!"
Chen Xi looked at Chen Qun deeply. He would not allow the other party to replicate the Nine-Rank System in the Han Dynasty, but it seemed like a good idea to replicate it in Japan and Goryeo.
Chen Xi hated the caste system, but he knew very well that this kind of targeted training could indeed more effectively control such a dependent country.
From a certain perspective, if large numbers of people are directed to Japan and Korea, it will be helpful for popularizing education.
After all, from a national perspective, people are needed to take the professional path. If it does not sacrifice the country's own people, trafficking in people from Japan is the most worthwhile path to try.
"Go on. All of your ideas are very effective, but I remind you to pay attention to the bottom line. There are some things we can accept, but they may not be effective a hundred years later. So the bottom line is very important."
Chen Xi emphasized his attitude and then continued to preside over the meeting.
After hearing what Chen Xi said, Li Ru hesitated for a moment and did not say what he had imagined. After all, from a legal point of view, his approach was indeed a bit destructive to human nature.
In fact, he wanted to use Japan and Goryeo as a dumping ground to squeeze out the last bit of value from them. However, as Chen Xi said, this method of destroying human nature is not a long-term solution after all. If he wants to completely religiousize these vassal states, he still has to have a necessary bottom line.
"Speaking of this, Zichuan, are you familiar with the Shinto of Japan? I got some very interesting things here, should we give it a try?"
Guo Jia suddenly said that some of the intelligence he got back from Japan was indeed very inspiring to him.
The most inspiring of these is the Shenxiang system, which seems to be another kind of imperial will, very similar to the Kushan system of gods, but also completely different.
After all, the gods and Buddhas in Kushan are mainly secluded from the world, while in Japan, the gods and Buddhas are the dominant ones. The two are similar but very different.
"We can give it a try. With the summoning ritual we got from Great Britain and the god and Buddha system from Kushan, we can try to drag some mountain and sea beasts out of the other world."
Chen Xi nodded. This thing was indeed useful. The Han Dynasty's internal energy and storage of wild beast meat were basically all summoned in this way.
If the level of research can be increased, it will be of great benefit to the overall development of the Han Dynasty.
"By the way, the general told me that the characters from the previous dynasty have basically been banned. You don't need to pay attention to them, and focus on studying the content related to the exotic beasts."
Seeing everyone's excitement, Chen Xi couldn't help but give a weak warning.
