Whether it was prohibiting marriage with people of the Great Tang, or banning their proselytizing, or requiring them to fully comply with Tang laws, exchanging Tang currency, and so on, everything was a restriction.
Gu Jing's oversight of these foreign merchants far exceeded what history originally recorded.
This was merely Gu Yi's intervention, using the Spirit Communication Jade to interfere with some of Gu Jing's ideas.
He wanted to develop maritime trade not only to continue expanding the Gu Clan's influence but also to let Kyushu be the first to see the world and the benefits hidden within.
And not to harm the entire Kyushu.
Gu Yi remembered very clearly, in the original history.
Especially in the late Tang period, these people brought significant trouble to the Great Tang, be it economically, or through foreign customs, buying officials, colluding with pirates, etc.
Although all of this now seems to have changed.
