- The Great Lakes region?
When Wang Shan proposed the Great Lakes region, Zhao Hongyu fell silent.
Of course he knows how rich the mineral resources are in the Great Lakes region.
¡°And the Great Lakes region is not too far away from the Manhattan city he founded, so it is completely possible to carry out genetic human immigration development.
This area has great advantages.
At the same time, the Great Lakes region is not only rich in coal and iron resources. There are also rich wildlife resources. After all, this is not the 21st century.
In the 21st century, wild animals have become very rare due to excessive hunting by humans and the encroachment of animals¡¯ living space.
Although the United States has also begun animal protection measures, it is still far from enough compared to 1620.
The forests of the Great Lakes region are home to animals such as American elk, bears, wolves, and foxes. There are also animals such as American minks, water monkeys, and beavers in the lakes. There are even herds of American bison, which can provide a great opportunity for the people living there. People are provided with abundant meat.
At the same time, there are abundant aquatic products and fish in the Five Great Lakes, so you don¡¯t have to worry about not getting protein.
It is simply a heaven-sent treasure land!
If a city is built in that area, the north can peek into Canada and the south can control North America. It is truly a place that can be attacked and defended.
At the same time, the Great Lakes also have natural river channels, which connect the Hudson River and directly reach Manhattan Island and enter the Atlantic Ocean.
So, the Great Lakes region. It is a treasure that cannot be given up.
In future history, the United States established the heavy industrial city of Detroit in the Great Lakes region.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu thought about it and said to Wang Shan: "We can consider mining in the Great Lakes area, but it is obviously unrealistic to mine under our current conditions. We do not have such technology and manpower. After all, we cannot use mechanical mining now. Bar."
Wang Shan nodded: "Of course it is unrealistic to mine minerals mechanically, and we don't have enough manpower. But we can build a city first and control that area, which is just to occupy the land."
Zhao Hongyu thought about it and felt that this was not impossible.
Compared to here in Manhattan. Cities established in the Great Lakes region were first farther away from the sea to avoid attacks from the sea.
If there is a war, whether it is an attack from the French in Quebec in the north or an attack from the British in Virginia in the south, he will have a lot of room for maneuver.
The terrain there is much better than now in Manhattan.
¡°Well, I¡¯ll send someone over to check on the situation when I get back, but I¡¯m thinking that even if we start construction, it won¡¯t be until next year. It¡¯s already autumn, and winter is coming. It¡¯s not easy to do construction in winter.¡±
Wang Shan knew that Zhao Hongyu was telling the truth. The ground was freezing and hard this winter. Construction at this time is purely looking for trouble.
¡°And the winter in North America is very cold. There is nothing better than staying at home.
The two were chatting on the deck, while the genetic sailors were busy with their own affairs.
¡¡Dividing line¡¡
Williams, you devil!
God will definitely punish you!
In the square of the port, hundreds of men were forced to stay there by the soldiers of Yaksali City.
The bearded captain who had seen Zhao Hongyu before was in the crowd, looking furious.
"Fight them!"
The bearded captain raised the scimitar in his hand, shouted and rushed out.
Ouch!
The sailors around him followed behind him.
The residents around the port have long been driven away, and Williams doesn¡¯t want too many people to know about this.
How could these people come into conflict with Williams?
It turns out that after Zhao Hongyu left. The three captains who had snatched the ship from him bumped heads and discussed possible future cooperation.
However, they ignored another person, Mr. Williams, the Governor of Virginia.
Williams knew how much profit would be brought by starting trade with Zhao Hongyu, and how much wealth porcelain could bring.
Agent?
¡°In Williams¡¯ view, he is enough as an agent.
If there are too many, how much money will he make?
And when Zhao Hongyu was here. It's not easy for him to say or do anything.What?
But after he left, Williams was not so easy to talk to.
Everything was for the sake of money. If it weren't for the exquisite ceramics brought by Zhao Hongyu's men, Williams would have killed the three genetic people immediately.
Visible. Williams is not an easy person to talk to either.
Under the inducement of wealth, Celebrity Williams forced the three groups of captains and sailors who had been robbed by Zhao Hongyu to the port.
He wants to kill all these people!
¡°In this way, he can be the agent of Europe by himself.
At this point, the previous scene appeared.
Although the sailors are very brave, they are too few in number. Therefore, how could he be the opponent of the soldiers of Yaksali City? This is very unrealistic.
When the last sailor fell to the ground, there was no need to guess the outcome.
Why should profits from such a profitable business be shared? Williams doesn¡¯t want to share the wealth with everyone.
Just find a few agents at random, and they will quietly make money behind the scenes.
It¡¯s all about gold coins, there¡¯s nothing wrong with that.
Zhao Hongyu did not expect at all what happened in Yaksali City.
He had no idea that his kindness in trying to compensate those unlucky people would end up sending those people to hell.
"But with Zhao Hongyu's current mentality, even if he finds out about this matter in the future, nothing will happen.
"Williams killed those people for profit, but the method is not very understandable, but how much of any accumulation of wealth is clean?"
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t care too much if he doesn¡¯t go back.
Because when Zhao Hongyu becomes stronger, in order to fully control the American continent, he will also invade Virginia for land.
Williams from the Governor's Mansion received the report from his subordinates. After knowing that all the unlucky ones had been dealt with, he happily hummed a ditty in the room.
He came to the porcelain and looked at the porcelain in front of him greedily.
This is simply a gift from God. In addition to bringing wealth, it can also bring fame and status. Williams could even predict that when these porcelains were shipped back to the British mainland, the royal family would definitely be very upset.
And he will also get corresponding rewards.
A title or something else?
Williams himself didn¡¯t expect it, but it would be beneficial anyway.
At the same time, you can also make a lot of money by privately bringing porcelain trade to a region.
Haha, for the first time, he felt that the American continent was a good place, not a backward world full of indigenous people.
But soon, Williams woke up from his excitement.
He slowly walked to his desk and sat down, his brows knitted together.
This kind of wealth can make people jealous and even crazy.
Originally, the American continent was a sterile place, and no one who did well in the country wanted to come. Basically, the people who came here were people who couldn't make it in the local area, people who had no property or people who were homeless.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????There is a silver mine here? In fact, no one else can get involved in that silver mine. Because the director of the silver mine was someone personally sent by the royal family as an official to manage it.
But if a country that can produce exquisite ceramic products and unlimited supply of food appears here, then this place that was originally a place where birds don't shit will become a cornucopia.
Those guys in China will definitely rack their brains to come to this place.
¡°As a result, wouldn¡¯t my position as the Governor of Virginia become unstable?
After Williams considered this issue, he couldn't help but worry about himself.
If he can continue to be the governor, then he can make money.
But if he is not in this position, everything will be empty talk.
What methods should you use to keep your position?
Williams thought about it very seriously¡ª¡ª
Dividing line¡ª¡ª
"Your Majesty, we have brought such great benefits to Williams, but we have also brought him danger. Can he see this?"
While Williams was worried about his future and wealth, Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan were also talking about him.
Haha, Zhao HongYu smiled: "As long as he is not a fool, he will definitely be able to see this problem clearly, but we can also use this incident to see whether he is a person who can support us. First, let's see how much he treats us in Yaksali City. What is the reaction to the recruitment matter? If he turns a blind eye, we will support him. If not"
hey-hey!
Zhao Hongyu¡¯s words are very clear, and it means that it depends on Williams¡¯ attitude.
You give me benefits, and I will give you benefits and even support you.
If you don¡¯t do me any favors, then you¡¯re done.
??For Williams, the benefits are ceramics and food.
For Zhao Hongyu, the benefits are population and skilled workers.
But unlike Williams, Zhao Hongyu has full control over ceramics and grains, and you have to trade with him to get them.
But the Governor of Virginia was unable to control all the people in Yaksali City.
"I understand what you mean. In fact, if he thinks about this problem, it is actually very easy to solve." Wang Shan nodded and said. "As long as he contacts us and explains the benefits of cooperating with us, then we may not support him. Anyway, it is not cooperation with anyone. It may not be easy to deal with another person."
Yes, if it were another person, he would see such huge benefits and wealth. If he gets carried away by money, Zhao Hongyu doesn't want another war to happen. - Didn't finish reading?
