"Your Highness, do you know? This French Quebec turned out to be the widow's family territory, that is, the private territory of Count Samuel's family. It does not belong to France."
Wang Shan whispered to Zhao Hongyu with an excited look.
What?
Zhao Hongyu was also surprised when he heard this. He did not expect that Wang Shan would actually say such words.
"you sure?"
Zhao Hongyu felt that this was too impossible.
Wang Shanqi replied seriously: "Nothing is impossible, it is the fact. And the little widow's personal safety is somewhat dangerous, because all the men in Earl Samuel's family are dead, so the title of noble is passed by this little widow. She inherited it. And Quebec, the territory belonging to the Samuel family, was also inherited by her."
When Wang Shan said this, Zhao Hongyu understood a little bit.
It seems that the problem must lie in the Quebec Territory.
Sure enough, Wang Shan continued: "All the men in the family are dead. It is impossible for a widow to obtain such a large territory without attracting the prying eyes of others. The nobles and royal families are all eager to make the territory their own. .¡±
In one night, Wang Shan got a lot of information from Leon.
¡°Besides, Leon didn¡¯t think about hiding Wang Shan, after all, they had no interest in this issue.
The reason why Leon told Wang Shan this was because he hoped Wang Shan would give them some time to deal with the Quebec issue.
After the matter in Quebec is settled, the matter of opening up trade routes can begin.
¡°But Leon and the others don¡¯t know that what happened here in Quebec is Zhao Hongyu and the others¡¯ goal.
And they are now painstakingly dealing with a young widow, which just gives Zhao Hongyu and the others a very suitable opportunity.
"Your Highness, you can imagine this. A little widow guarding such a large area of ??land is like a little sheep telling the big bad wolf to come quickly."
Wang Shan pinched his nose and played tricks, but Zhao Hongyu couldn't laugh.
After looking at Zhao Hongyu, Wang Shan continued: "The chief executive, military officials, and tax collectors here are now people from other forces. And those who are loyal to the Samuel family have basically been dealt with. Or disappeared.¡±
Zhao Hongyu¡¯s heart was filled with excitement as he listened to Wang Shan¡¯s story.
He had to sigh that he would do anything to benefit people.
"For Quebec, is it worth it for those nobles to do this?" Zhao Hongyu said quietly. But soon, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.
does it worth?
Of course it¡¯s worth it.
Not just the land, it is also rich in natural resources.
¡°The furs alone can bring millions of gold louis to the Samuel family in profits a year, which is definitely not a small amount.
Therefore, Quebec is a cornucopia in the eyes of those nobles.
The royal family also regrets very much why they turned this land into the territory of the Samuel family in the first place.
And even Zhao Hongyu himself is also thinking about this land now.
So, he was wrong to question whether it was worth it.
"Of course it's worth it, Your Highness." Before Zhao Hongyu could explain, Wang Shan spoke: "Let's not talk about animal furs. The metal minerals here are very rich. You should know this, Your Highness. Even if we are not For those metal minerals, the land occupied can also be used to cultivate and grow food."
In Wang Shan¡¯s eyes, the land of Quebec is worth it no matter how dirty the means.
So, he didn¡¯t think there was anything wrong with what Leon and the others did.
If Wang Shan were to do it for him, he would probably do it worse than Leon and the forces behind them.
The process is not important, what Wang Shan values ????is the result.
"These guys have tampered with their income and handed over the furs collected in Quebec directly to the major forces behind them for sale without paying the bills. The Samuel family basically has no control over Quebec except in the name of ownership. " Wang Shan sat upright and his voice gradually became louder.
"And the widow noticed this strangeness, so she came to Quebec in person, preparing to clean up these people." Wang Shan relayed Leon's words exactly, and asked Zhao HongyuFind out what's happening in Quebec right now.
"The widow has some skills. Before she came, she had arrested all the family members of these people and hid them in other places. It seems that she was forced to panic."
Wang Shan finally said to Zhao Hongyu.
After Zhao Hongyu heard Wang Shan tell this information, he did not speak immediately, but pondered and digested the information.
Later, he asked Wang Shan: "People like Leon won't sit still and wait for death. Don't they have some means? I don't think the forces behind them will give up this place of wealth, so I think they will definitely take action." of."
Hearing this, Wang Shan smiled and nodded and said: "Your Highness, you are right. People like Leon will definitely not sit still and wait for death. After all, millions of gold Louis is not a small number, and it is impossible for them to give up this wealth. of."
"Does the other party have any plans?" Zhao Hongyu asked.
"They have already sent people to Manhattan, preparing to board a merchant ship to Europe, and tell the forces behind them what happened here. Here in Leon, they will definitely stabilize Sara, and at the same time, their family will be protected by the forces behind them. Come to the rescue, and after the family is rescued, I don¡¯t need to explain the fate of Sarah, the widow.¡±
Zhao Hongyu fell silent. How could he not know the methods of these people?
"Your Highness, this is an opportunity for us." Wang Shan looked at Zhao Hongyu with twinkling eyes, "Didn't you sleep with that widow? As long as you can capture her heart, we can completely use the power of Manhattan to occupy her. Quebec. And get the reputation of justice, no one can say anything."
Wang Shan expressed his plan.
Zhao Hongyu smiled bitterly: "By some chance, I had a relationship with that widow, but I guess she's not a fool and she can't fail to see our purpose."
Wang Shan curled his lips: "It's just a woman, it depends on your methods, Your Highness."
Zhao Hongyu thought about it and felt that this kind of thing might not be a bad idea.
"By the way, Wang Shan, I consider myself a handsome guy, but what happened yesterday was too strange. Is that girl a nymphomaniac? Otherwise, how could something like that happen the first time you meet me? What's going on?"
Zhao Hongyu has been wondering about this matter.
Seeing Zhao Hongyu asking, Wang Shan smiled like a weasel trying to steal a chicken.
"Your Highness, this is actually what happened" Wang Shan then told Zhao Hongyu about the perfume. Only then did Zhao Hongyu understand why Sarah, a young widow, was in such an abnormal situation.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? This is the method that Ganqing used. It made me think that the woman was a nymphomaniac.
It turns out that all the problems lie in the perfume.
"I said Wang Shan, you are a bit unethical in what you do. You didn't tell me this first. I thought my charm was so great that people couldn't hold it back after seeing me." Zhao Hongyu looked at Wang Shan helplessly and said.
"Your Highness, didn't you look good yesterday? I'm doing this for your own good, so it's okay to hold it back all the time." Wang Shan found a high-sounding excuse.
"I asked you, why did you insist on sprinkling some perfume on me after looking through the telescope yesterday? It turns out that you saw that woman a long time ago, and then you had this plan."
Wang Shan didn¡¯t reply when faced with this question, he just kept giggling ¡®hehehe¡¯.
Anyway, Wang Shan knew that Zhao Hongyu would not do anything to himself on this issue. After all, he had been tossing with that woman all night.
Speaking of which, Zhao Hongyu got a big advantage.
"Your Highness, what do you think of this issue now?"
"What else can we do? Let's just pretend for the time being. In short, we can't let Leon and the others see anything. Let me get along with that Sara first. It will take half a year for Leon and the others to deal with Sara."
After calculating the time for the merchant ship to come and go in Europe, as well as the time to rescue Leon and his family, Zhao Hongyu said to Wang Shan.
Wang Shan thought for a while: "Half a year is enough for us to do a lot of things."
"Your Highness, this is the first thing. I want to tell you the second thing, which is also very important." After talking about the widow Sarah, Wang Shan changed the topic.
"Oh, what else happened?" Zhao Hongyu came back to his senses.
Wang Shan's expression became extremely serious this time. He said to Zhao Hongyu: "People like Leon are planning a war with the Iroquois."If the war continues, Sarah, a widow, will not be able to make a big splash. When it breaks out at the same time, they can also take the opportunity to get rid of this woman, so you have to guard against it. "
Zhao Hongyu frowned. He knew that if Sara died, Wang Shan's plan would be shelved.
After all, what Wang Shan needs is for Sara to be alive and to use her name to send troops to Manhattan.
With the reputation of righteousness, no country in Europe can say anything.
But without this righteous name, things will become more complicated.
"As for the war between Quebec and the Iroquois, Zhao Hongyu and the others also need to plan carefully so that they can obtain the maximum benefits from this war.
"Do you think we should inform the Iroquois about this?" Zhao Hongyu asked.
¡°Of course we have to tell them, but I guess it¡¯s impossible for the Iroquois to believe us. After all, we are not very familiar with them and don¡¯t have much contact with them.¡±
