    For Manhattan and the Song Empire, as well as the rich American continent.

    This is the country that almost all European celebrities yearn for, just like many third world countries in later generations yearn for the rich United States of America.

    For the poor Europeans of this era, the Song Empire on the American continent was an ideal country.

    It¡¯s rich and beautiful there, much better than in Europe.

    There are not many exorbitant taxes and no teachings of nobles. As long as you work honestly, you can get the life you want.

    Yes, a happy life.

    The Song Empire treats everyone fairly. As long as you abide by their rules, regulations and laws, you don't have to worry about anything.

    And there are very few taxes there, not as complicated as here in Europe.

    At the same time, the Song Empire has a strong military, so you don¡¯t have to worry about war coming In short, the benefits are too many to mention.

    Where, it is simply what God calls the Garden of Eden, the paradise on earth.

    People who have been to Manhattan basically don¡¯t want to leave.

    At the same time, these people informed their relatives in Europe about the situation in Manhattan, hoping that they could take a ship to come to America to live with them.

    In this way, as people spread word of mouth, Manhattan became the country that all Europeans yearned for.

    In addition, Europe was experiencing frequent wars at this time and was very turbulent.

    Many Europeans left their homes and found merchant ships and came to America.

    For a time, the Manhattan Pier was filled with makeshift shacks, which became the residence of those newly arrived from Europe.

    "It's like a ghetto suddenly appeared in Manhattan, and it happened very suddenly in time.

    Fortunately, the empire stipulated that people who were not citizens could not leave the port area. Otherwise, if these people poured into the city, it would bring great instability to the public security.

    But even so.  The security at the port has also become much worse than before.

    Crimes such as petty theft and even robbery have increased sharply during this period.

    In order to deal with this, Zhang Tie took advantage of his privileges and purchased a batch of template Ah San to act as security team members, and then suppressed this symptom.

    Brother Asan is indeed a good bastard who fights against the power of others. With the support of the empire, they will show no mercy to those who dare to disobey the rules of the empire. Once discovered, they will beat them up.  Then thrown into a cell.

    What¡¯s worse, they were thrown directly into the road construction team.

    These Europeans are not stupid, and they have become honest after a few times.

    They know that Americans are not good people, they are also very scary.

    But as long as you don¡¯t commit crimes or break the law, life here is actually pretty good.

    In addition, they learned about it from some old Europeans who had been in America for more than a year, so the security gradually improved.

    The stubborn guys have basically disappeared.

    Some of the remaining people.  I don't dare to do anything.

    The port area has expanded a lot.

    Because of the continuous influx of Europeans, the port expansion plan was once again placed in front of Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    And because of the arrival of these people, the number of laborers at the port suddenly increased.

    Originally, the labor force has been very scarce, but now it has finally been alleviated.

    Cargo loading and unloading of merchant ships.  No more worrying about time.

    And because I have a job, I can make money.

    People¡¯s willingness to take risks and commit crimes gradually faded away.

    "It's really unexpected. The turmoil in Europe has led to the influx of so many refugees here. How many people are pouring into the Manhattan Port every day now?"

    For these Europeans.  Zhao Hongyu labeled them all "refugees".

    In fact, the label Zhao Hongyu is not wrong. After all, they came across the ocean to America, wasn't it because of the frequent wars in Europe?

    Wang Shan stood in front of Zhao Hongyu.  He picked up the document and looked through it, then replied: "According to the survey, almost four hundred people arrive at the Port of Manhattan every day and live in shantytowns. If this rate is maintained, it will take less than a month for the port to be completely empty."  There will be a lot of pressure on the side.¡±

    Although having more people is a good thing, it is also a bad thing.

    ¡°After all, after these guys came to Manhattan, they built and built things indiscriminately and ruined the port.? Paint.

    At the same time, these people defecated everywhere and turned the originally clean port into a smoky mess, which made Zhao Hongyu unbearable.

    And it also made those Europeans who came to Manhattan to live here last year who were accustomed to clean and fresh air dislike it very much.

    Yes, cities in Europe are so stinky. It was only after we came to America that we discovered that life could be so clean.

    After getting used to such a clean environment, who would want to live a dirty life?

    But these Europeans who came to Manhattan because of the turmoil in Europe brought bad habits from Europe to Manhattan.

    "If that doesn't work, send these people to Quebec or Ontario City. Our population in Manhattan has exceeded 500,000, and the city can't bear any more. We need to know our health system and city services  The facilities are simply not adequate to provide coverage for more than half a million people.¡±

    Zhao Hongyu said to Wang Shan with a headache.

    Wang Shan picked up the pen and made a note on the document.

    "Okay, Your Highness. I will take care of this matter as soon as possible. There is a shortage of miners over Lake Ontario, and I heard the salary is good. Although it is a bit harder, I think these Europeans will not be picky."

    After making the record, Wang Shan said to Zhao Hongyu.

    Yes, it would be nice to have a job for them these days. Anyone who is picky is going to die.

    ¡°And the salary of miners in Ontario is 30% higher than that of laborers here in Manhattan. It can be said to be a very good profession.

    The level of the princes in the empire is very high, and at the same time, prices are very low.

    Compared with Europe, the living conditions are really like paradise.

    Rather than starving at the Port of Manhattan, it would be better to go to Ontario City.

    Wang Shan already has a clue about this and knows what he should do.

    Zhao Hongyu continued: "Let's put this matter aside for now. How many warships can we use now? The British colonies are already in our hands, so the next step is to conquer the Caribbean. Now that the American continent is constantly at war, Spain  Both China and the Netherlands have been held back by the war. This is a good opportunity for us. It is a great sin to not take what God wants."

    When Zhao Hongyu mentioned this matter, he also used an unreliable word.

    Wang Shan heard this and quickly replied: "Now we have thirteen heavily armed warships and one hundred and sixty-five Dutch imitation warships. At the same time, we also captured more than two hundred Galenic ships from the British some time ago. These ships we form  We have formed thirteen fleets, among which the flagships are mainly heavy-armed battleships.¡±

    After Zhao Hongyu listened to Wang Shan¡¯s report, he calculated it carefully.

    The number of fake Dutch warships plus the more than 200 British warships detained there is almost 300 to 400.

    If assigned to thirteen fleets, then one fleet will have at least thirty warships.

    Such a maritime force is not weak.

    Leave it to summer.  They can even compete with those pirates.

    Zhao Hongyu is very satisfied with this.

    "You also know the situation on the Caribbean side of Central America. The Spanish and the Dutch have mobilized a large number of warships, and regiments have returned to the mainland to participate in the war, so the colonies in Central America can be said to have very strong military strength.  Weakness, we must take advantage of this opportunity to win it in one fell swoop.¡±

    Zhao Hongyu said to Wang Shan seriously.

    Wang Shan nodded: "Yes, Your Highness, the Intelligence Department has intelligence information about the West Dutch Colony in Central America. Of course I know this. You are right, the military power in the Caribbean is very weak now.  This is a huge good thing for us.¡±

    Having said this, Wang Shan paused for a moment, and then observed Zhao Hongyu's expression.

    When he saw that Zhao Hongyu was very interested, Wang Shan continued: "And with the maritime military power we have now, it is entirely possible to invade the Caribbean. As long as we occupy all the Caribbean colonies in a short time  Control, then even if the Spaniards and Dutch know about it in the future, we don¡¯t have to be afraid, right?¡±

    Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu laughed: "Yes. It's good to be separated by the Atlantic Ocean. By the time they know the news that the colony has been occupied, it will be too late to come back for rescue. The Spaniards have now held them back in the local war.  , so don¡¯t worry too much. The Dutch war in the Netherlands will not end in a short while, and their war will also spread to the sea, and the main battlefield will also beAsia.  So we don't need to worry too much.  "

    Of course Zhao Hongyu knew what Wang Shan meant.

    Now is an absolutely good opportunity for them.

    After acquiring the Caribbean Sea, the entire America will belong to the Song Empire.

    At that time, all Zhao Hongyu has to do is to develop the American continent well.

    A complete American continent, if developed well, would be enough for Zhao Hongyu to conquer the world.

    "Let the Navy, Military Intelligence and Intelligence Departments draw up a combat plan as soon as possible. I hope to send troops before the Chinese New Year and end the Caribbean Raiders in the spring."

    "Your Highness, don't worry, we will definitely be able to complete this strategy."

    Wang Shan responded confidently.

    "The best is when we can achieve the greatest results with a small cost. If there are no casualties, that would be the best. Of course, I also know that this is a bit unlikely, but I still hope that when you draw up a battle plan,  , can take this into consideration.¡±

    Zhao Hongyu made a small request at this time.

    Faced with such a request, Wang Shan smiled: "It's not difficult. I already have a plan in my mind. But it's not very mature yet, so let's wait until we make a plan and I'll submit it to you."  Take a look."
