- Just when Palma discovered the Iroquois gathering point and forced its 3,000 left-behind troops into an ambush, Zhao Hongyu, Emma, ??and Serra had returned to Manhattan with more than 400 subordinates.
At this time, Zhao Hongyu and the others had left Manhattan for more than a month.
Now that she came back, Emma became excited when she saw the lively crowd on the street.
Children, they definitely like fun.
Sarah, on the other hand, looked around curiously. To her, everything in Manhattan was so new and made her curious.
A clean city, with orderly streets and pedestrians, and happy smiles on people¡¯s faces. There is no numbness and despair like the residents of European cities.
Even in Manhattan, Sarah didn¡¯t see a single beggar.
This had to surprise Sarah.
The Asans, whose heads were wrapped in red cloth that looked like big pineapples, patrolled in groups of eight with batons on their waists. Some vendors who had not rented a suitable store were selling their wares on the street.
In this city, Indians, white Europeans, black people, people with black hair and black eyes live in harmony, and everything looks so harmonious.
There are also Indians living in Quebec, but the white people there look down on them.
But this kind of sentiment does not exist in Manhattan.
Sarah fell in love with the city right away, and yes, she loved the atmosphere.
¡°The streets in the city are so clean.¡±
Sarah praised.
Zhao Hongyu smiled and said: "Of course, we pay great attention to the city's sanitation construction. It's not so bad in winter, but if we don't pay attention in spring and summer, it will bring diseases and epidemics. For the sake of everyone's health, , I also have to work hard on hygiene."
Afterwards, Zhao Hongyu told Sara everything about the planning and construction of urban sanitation.
¡°It¡¯s not a secret anyway, so it doesn¡¯t matter if I tell her about it.
Sarah listened quietly to Zhao Hongyu's narration, and her heart was filled with overwhelming emotions following Zhao Hongyu's words.
Emma sat on her horse carelessly, chatting with her maids.
Regardless of whether the Indians passing by on the street are male or female, they will stop when they see Emma, ??and then bow and salute to Emma, ??not caring whether Emma sees it or not.
It can be seen that the ¡®mascot¡¯ Emma, ??who represents the interests of Indians, still has a high status in the hearts of Manhattan Indians.
Because these Indians all know that the reason why they can be so easily accepted by Zhao Hongyu's 'empire' and allow them to live a happy life is entirely because of Emma's existence.
For their happiness, Emma married Zhao Hongyu.
Of course, the reason why Indians have such thoughts and concepts is also related to the Mohicans spreading some information and people from the imperial intelligence department adding fuel to the fire.
??For the Mohicans and Imperial Intelligence, making the Indians grateful to Emma is still the right idea.
At the same time, if Zhao Hongyu and Emma have a child in the future, this little guy with Chinese and Indian blood will take over the empire and the Indians will not object.
Zhao Hongyu told Sara about his city¡¯s sanitation construction and planning. After changing the topic, he started talking about the products he had here again, which shocked Sara even more.
"Yu, since you have so many commodities, why don't you build your own fleet. You must know that if you build your own fleet, you can make more profits instead of just making a small change like now. "This is what women are like. Sarah has already had a sexual relationship with Zhao Hongyu, and was personally promised an identity by Zhao Hongyu. Even Emma recognized her.
Therefore, now Sara has begun to enter the role and become a member of Manhattan.
?????????? But in Sarah¡¯s opinion, the business done by this little man of hers was very loss-making. A lot of profits have been made by those businessmen, which is intolerable.
How could Sarah not know how much profit her little man¡¯s products could bring if sold to the Mediterranean area? But the more she knew, the less valuable Sarah felt for her little man.
It¡¯s such a loss.
Now that I have become a part of this family, I have to think about it for this family.
Therefore, Sarah said the above to Zhao HongyuHere comes the words.
"Yu, don't you also have shares in the company of the royal family and the military? And the company also has shipping companies, why don't you do your own trade, so that the profits will not be made by those greedy guys. "
Sarah didn¡¯t understand this very much.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu smiled bitterly.
To be honest, he didn¡¯t know the issues Sara mentioned.
¡°Not only does he understand, but Wang Shan, Song Hu, and Zhang Tie all understand.
But now, it is very unrealistic to carry out trade with only the few ships owned by Manhattan.
At this time, there were almost 30,000 to 40,000 ships on the sea from all European countries.
And there are only a few ships in Manhattan.
There is simply no way to compete with others.
Especially since there are so many pirates on the sea, Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t want to be someone else¡¯s big fat sheep.
¡°Besides, the waters of Manhattan also need ships for defense. There are so many ships there for trade.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu said to Sara: "I also want to do trade, but I don't have enough ships on hand. Otherwise, I will definitely not make huge profits for those guys, but now I really have no choice. ", Zhao Hongyu gave a small explanation to Sarah about the current situation in Manhattan with a grimace.
The army here in Manhattan is very strong, but the navyhey, let's not talk about it.
This time, Sara finally understood.
"I am preparing to buy a ship from Europe, but I guess it is unlikely. I heard that European countries are all looking at the sea, and shipyard orders from all countries are booked for three years."
Thinking of the conversation between himself and Joubert, Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Today, the shipyards under the Umbrella Company cannot build large ships, and it is impossible to buy ships. This made Zhao Hongyu very unhappy and made him very helpless.
There was originally a space-time trader, but the problem was that you couldn¡¯t buy boats from the space-time trader, not even small fishing boats. Because the place he controls in the virtual world is in a small mainland village, the system cannot determine it.
"It's such a pity. These porcelain, tea and spices are very popular goods in Mediterranean countries. If sold to the Alexandria area in Egypt, they would be even more valuable." After all, he just came from Europe. It can be said that Ra knew these things very well.
Zhao Hongyu nodded: "You are right, those seas have been very fattened by us now. But give me some time, when the shipyards under the Umbrella Company can build large ships, we will regain control of the trade rights It¡¯s in your own hands.¡±
After chatting with Sara for a while, Zhao Hongyu asked Emma to take Sara back to the castle and arrange a room for Sara.
And he himself took Wang Shan to the military headquarters to see Song Hu, and asked Wang Shan to bring Zhang Tie over.
About an hour later, the four people finally met.
"Your Highness, is this trip going well?"
When Zhang Tie was the last one to arrive at the military headquarters and saw Zhao Hongyu and the others, he asked.
Zhao Hongyu nodded: "It's not bad. There's no danger. Everything is going according to plan."
Zhang Tie walked over and came to Song Hu's side.
Song Hu then asked: "Your Highness, the Iroquois are probably at war with the French. I have sent a lot of intelligence personnel out. Then we can find a suitable time based on the intelligence to get involved." .¡±
Zhao Hongyu nodded: "This opportunity is very beneficial to us. We can occupy Quebec and the Great Lakes region in one fell swoop. And eliminate two powerful forces so that our north will never encounter enemies again. This is for us. very important."
According to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s plan, after the French and Quebecers are eliminated, they will occupy a large area of ??land.
And in this land, there are richer product resources.
By then, they will be free to solve Virginia's problems.
"Your Highness, the unclaimed land between us and Virginia is occupied by the British. According to intelligence, the British sent 10,000 troops to the mainland and landed a large number of immigrants, naming it Pennsylvania. It seems that these British people have bad intentions."
Wang Hu suddenly revealed the British news.
"Oh, there is such a thing." Wang Hu's information made Zhao Hongyu look stern. Just as Song Hu said, he also felt that the British did not fight anythinggood idea.
After thinking about it, Zhao Hongyu said to Song Hu: "Don't worry about them for the time being. Now we have to deal with the French and Iroquois with all our strength. Only after these two forces have been resolved and we have no worries, can we turn around and deal with them." England."
Song Hu nodded and said nothing.
Wang Shan said at this time: "When all the surrounding forces are resolved, we can develop to the west. At that time, we can incorporate Canada and the future United States into the empire's territory. This is a big territory."
When he said this, Wang Shan¡¯s eyes flashed.
Song Hu and Zhang Tie also looked excited.
"Hey, when we consolidate the territory of the empire, this process may take about ten years. At that time, we can send our army south and eliminate the Spaniards and Dutch in South America. The entire American continent will be ours. .¡±
Ten years?
Zhang Tie curled his lips: "Maybe it won't take ten years. After all, our Highness has a magical weapon in hand." (To be continued.
