"Your Majesty, the minister's suggestion is serious.
Everyone said that Ran Min had some kind of illness, and it didn't matter if he provoked a group of people at every turn, he recently proposed that all the male 1 slaves on the register be castrated.
Since the establishment of the Han Empire, Liu Yanming has secretly opposed castration many times, and the reason he came up with is not the words of the sage, but the fact that the Han people are few enough to artificially create people with defects that cannot be passed on.
The current Han Empire is also the first dynasty in which the imperial family did not use eunuchs since the establishment of a state in Zhuxia.
At this point, even those who were most hostile to the existence of the Han Empire, they all had to praise Liu Yan for finally doing a job.
Since Zhuxia entered the stage of royal power, eunuchs don't know when they began, but they exist with history.
The eunuch appeared because the king was afraid that his head would become a green grassland, but in fact, if someone was really bold enough to make the king's head green, it was not only the courtiers who could do it.
Miyagi always needs someone to guard it, so that the hermitage can be done by the eunuchs who have been castrated, and all the samurai who defend Miyagi will be castrated There is a scientific name for a hormone.
And male hormones are not only aphrodisiac, in fact, men are naturally stronger than women, and there are some differences between men and women in terms of bones, one of the secrets is in hormones.
If you are not brave and good at fighting, how can you be selected to be a member of the king's last line of defense, once you have a physical defect, or a flaw of a bird missing from your crotch, it really has nothing to do with bravery.
Guarding Miyagi has always been a priority for the selection of warriors.
In modern times, muscular men are known as walking hormones that are better able to attract women.
Then, in any era, with the exception of the Northern Song and Southern Song Dynasty, women should prefer strong men.
The king is afraid that the top of his head is green, and there are too many women possessed by the king alone, so he should understand that no matter what, he will not be able to satisfy them, so he will naturally be afraid.
Liu Yan is from modern times, and he knows very well that women want to plant a green grass on their men's heads, so they can find opportunities no matter what.
Ordinary couples, what can restrain both parties from cheating is either that they can satisfy each other, or they are only left with feelings.
The feudal dynasty restrained the women in the harem from planting grass on the top of the king's head, which came from the deterrence of royal power.
Liu Yan didn't know if he didn't use eunuchs, which gave Ran Min so much confidence.
The Han Empire currently has more than 13 million recorded slaves, of which more than 11 million are men, and most of the remaining women are over the appropriate childbearing age.
In terms of age, less than 500,000 were men and women1 slaves under the age of 14, and more than 2 million were men and women over the age of 35.1 slaves.
When plundering the population, the way the army calculates military merit based on the captured population is not a simple one-size-fits-all approach, but there are still normative rules.
For example, a young and beautiful woman is the highest in the calculation of military merits, followed by a woman of ordinary appearance but suitable for childbearing age, and then a young and strong male1 slave.
When the civilian slave hunting team carried out the captivity, although they could not obtain military merits because of the slave hunting, the reason for saying what kind of population was more valuable was actually the same.
The Han Empire began to hunt slaves on a large scale in the sixth year of Yuan Shuo, and the first country to suffer was Baekje, and then the three countries of the peninsula were flattened, most of their population of more than 3 million became slaves, and nearly 200,000 women of school age were rewarded to meritorious soldiers in the army.
The sixth year of Yuanshuo is just a harvest period, and the peak period of slave hunting is really in the eleventh year of Yuanshuo.
At that time, the Han army opened up the Indochina Peninsula, the army caught the wild tribes and fought continuously, and the civil slave hunting teams also poured in, and in just three years, the Han people plundered nearly 3.8 million people from the Indochina Peninsula, of which nearly 400,000 school-age women were either accepted as concubines by the generals in the army, or they entered the people and became the mothers-in-law of the people.
From the 11th year of the Yuan Shuo to the 12th year of the Yuan Shuo, another concentration of slaves was on many islands in the South Sea, and about 180,000 slaves were captured before and after.
Coupled with the slaves of various ethnic groups captured in the Central Plains, the number of officially recorded slaves in the Han Empire reached 9 million by the 12th year of the Yuan Shuo period.
At the beginning of the thirteenth year of Yuan Shuo, the Han Empire ushered in the peak of the sudden increase in slaves because of the destruction of the Gupta Empire, and only then did it have the terrifying number of more than 13 million slaves at the beginning of the fourteenth year of Yuan Shuo.
If you count the women of different races who have become the wives and concubines of the Han family, the number can increase by about two million.
There are official records of those, and no one doubts that the people will hide private slaves, it should be said that there will be no registered slaves, but no one can be sure how many there are.
"How can there be one or two million?"
Seeing Liu Yan silently looking at the city in the distance, Ran Min said anxiously: "That's fifteen million."
I think that at the beginning, the Jin Chamber only accommodated more than 800,000, and in less than 20 years, Zhuhu increased to more than 400,000.
It is impossible for ministers not to use slaves, but there are more than 15 million slaves now, and how many will there be in another 20 years?"
Liu Yan was not unable to agree to Ran Min's proposal to castrate slaves, on the contrary, he was very interested in this.
There is such a very critical issue, except for the slaves of the official office, the slaves who are rewarded for military merits, including slaves owned by the people, are already personal property.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Han Empire, Liu Yan very clearly put forward the rule of "the sanctity of private property", and said that the emperor burned the table and sacrificed to the heavens was written in the table.
Written in the burning of the watch and the sacrifice to the sky, it has basically become a part of the "ancestral family law", not to mention that it is the burning of the table and the sacrifice of the emperor when he is called the emperor, then it is equivalent to unless the old Liu family loses the country, or whoever dares to modify the rule of "the sanctity and inviolability of private property" is not only disrespectful to the "Taizu", but also a major event that attempts to shake the foundation of the country.
Now Ran Min proposes to castrate male 1 slaves, and Liu Yan, who belongs to the slaves of the official office, can of course be in charge, but the private slaves of the people can only be promoted.
The Han Chinese are no strangers to slave ownership.
From ancient times to the southward migration of the Western Jin Dynasty, or to the demise of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Zhuxia has always had the habit of keeping slaves.
If there is any difference, it is that Liu Yan explicitly forbade the keeping of Han people as slaves, but he also took advantage of the fact that he was still fighting the world, and forced it to be promulgated and enforced.
After Liu Yan emphasized that "private property is sacrosanct", even if some people still have Han slaves at home, the government can no longer use coercion and can only choose other methods, such as persuasion.
Of course, it is best if the persuasion is effective, and if it is not effective, don't blame the government for being "stuck" or targeted in some things.

The matter proposed by Ran Min is different, it is not about the interests of a very small number of people, but it will infringe on the interests of the vast majority of people.
What is the appearance of the families without slaves in the Han Empire now, that is, those families who have no male servants have served in the military, and there is no title as the basis for owning slaves, so they do not own slaves.
No, some people do not have titles, but there are people who secretly keep slaves.
This is because the local authorities are indulgent, but they never dare to go too far.
In the Han Empire, the slave-owning group was only the most basic, and the higher the title, the more slaves were owned.
They will understand that their slaves are slaves when they give birth to children, and that according to established customs, the children born to slaves are naturally their own property.
Although it is said that only a very small number of slaves have the right to mate and mate, there are always them Then there is no shortage of smart people to do things that they think can be profitable, such as the fact that a black woman is not expensive, and if you buy one or a few within your allowable range, can you let the rest of the male slaves mate with the black woman to produce offspring "Someone is already doing that."
Ran Min just fired the map cannon: "Those scum in the south, why don't they want to think about how they desperately indulged slaves to give birth decades ago for the sake of those petty profits. ” Liu Yan knew that that kind of thing would happen, but he really didn't expect it to come so early.
"Black doesn't slip away" Liu Yan almost couldn't help laughing, but he really couldn't help it, laughed for a while, and said: "They deliberately bought black women as fertility tools" "It's not just a fertility tool."
Ran Min said angrily: "They found that black women are very capable of working, and coupled with the ability to have children, the market has become extremely hungry for black women." ” That is to say, the price of a black-skinned woman slave is going to rise, and perhaps it will go up exponentially.
After all, Ran Min said that dark-skinned women work no worse than men, and they are even five times better than Nanyang monkeys, three times better than Ah San, and twice as good as Zhuhu.
Liu Yan suddenly understood something.
He said that from last year to this year, the number of ships ordered by shipyards from various parties has increased rapidly, not only because of the prosperity of maritime trade, but also because they saw new slave fishing interests and went to Africa to hunt slaves.
Ninety percent of the shipyards that can build ocean-going ships are owned by the state, and there has been a significant change in the data, and someone will definitely tell Liu Yan in particular.
Shaofu is crazy about the sharp increase in orders, and the profit of building an ocean-going ship is basically more than eight times the cost, which is equivalent to selling one and using the profits earned to build seven more ships.
Zhang Shi initially asked for an additional 10 docks, and did not request another 30 docks in more than two months, which shows how hungry the market is for ocean-going vessels.
At the same time, the percentage increase in the number of applications for civil shipbuilding licenses by the private sector has increased by 400 percent.
Shipbuilding is not an easy thing, especially to build a big ship, or a big ship that can go to the sea, that is an even more difficult thing, not just money can be built, but also have that technology.
Shaofu sells shipbuilding technology to the private sector, and there are different prices according to the different levels of ships.
Taking the technical price of the smallest ocean-going ship as a conclusion, the buyout is 30,000 gold coins, and the share is the cost of 300 gold coins for each transaction.
The price of the smallest ocean-going vessel was 2,000 gold coins.
So far, it has risen to 3,800 gold coins, and it may not be possible to buy it with money. applied for a shipbuilding license, and at the same time bought out from Shaofu, and there were three before the thirteenth year of Yuan Shuo.
From the thirteenth year of Yuanshuo to the fourteenth year of Yuanshuo, it suddenly increased to seventeen.
Not in the buyout mode, but in the commission mode, the number of companies has soared to 76 in two years.
These "homes" refer to the quantity, and there are more and more joint forms of financing in the future, and there are even hundreds of families financing together, which is enough to show that people can make money from shipbuilding sales.
Liu Yan shuddered when he thought of something, and said, "Castration, must be castrated." ” This time, Ran Min was overjoyed, but he listened to Liu Yan continue to speak.
"Negro, that's a negro" Liu Yan said with great seriousness: "Except for the sect that has not yet appeared, the whole world uses the womb to achieve the goal of the war, and it belongs to the black."
"Ah" Ran Min was stunned for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty said that only black people are castrated" "The black slave trade has just begun, and even if there are black slaves in the country, the number is very small."
Liu Yan said reasonably: "There are not many Han people who own black slaves, so it will not cause too much trouble. ” "What about the rest of the slaves" Ran Min said bitterly, "others didn't see it, Your Majesty should see it."
Indulge the slaves and give birth to special students, and if my generation fights bloodily and can't keep it, one day it will become a fight for them. ” Of course Liu Yan knows, he knows better than anyone else.
The number one power in modern times is not just a lot of hard work, I don't know how many generations have climbed the mold, and how many intrigues have been spent, and all the efforts will inevitably become efforts for the black people.
"I know, but I know even more" Liu Yan patted Ran Min's shoulder and said sullenly: "Yongzeng, have you ever thought about the price of being too direct?"
Ran Min's first reaction was to roar: "Do they dare to rebel?"
"There may be some rebellion in the rebellion, but I believe there are more people who want to live."
Liu Yan looked at Ran Min faintly, and chose to say it more bluntly: "Although the resolution can be passed, Yongzeng will make enemies in the world." ” "It turns out that Your Majesty is talking about this" Ran Min said nonchalantly: "If the minister leaves a name for eternity, it will be an honor to be felt."
Liu Yan knew that Ran Min would not be afraid.
But he has changed the fate of Ran Min, although Ran Min still has a mixed reputation in historical evaluation, but at least he was not finally killed by Hu Lu in despair.
If he could, Liu Yan still very much hoped that Ran Min would have a good reputation and a good result.
Ran Min said impassionedly again: "For the sake of future generations, the minister is willing to bear the hostility of those scum":
