- Ever since Zhao Hongyu decided to start his journey to the East, everything in Manhattan began to revolve around this theme.
Seventy-two warships were densely docked at the Manhattan pier, which shocked the European laborers.
Three heavy battleships were enough to stun them.
Especially the densely packed gun ports on both sides of the battleship.
? All of them illustrate the powerful artillery power of the battleships and declare the battleships¡¯ powerful combat effectiveness.
With such battleships guarding the imperial waters, what other enemy can come to provoke us?
No matter who it is, it is purely seeking death.
After experiencing and seeing these battleships with their own eyes, the European laborers working in Manhattan all had this idea in mind.
They all lamented the empire's strong military power, and at the same time, after comparison, they felt the weakness of the European countries.
With last year¡¯s pirate incident, it seemed like they really didn¡¯t know what was going on.
Externally, Zhao Hongyu and others said that due to piracy, the imperial capital in the hinterland of America felt that the crown prince's territory lacked military strength, so it dispatched a royal fleet to strengthen coastal defense.
These warships are basically warships currently in service in the empire.
No one would doubt such an excuse.
It saves a little trouble.
It¡¯s spring now. Now that he has decided to go to the East, Zhao Hongyu feels that there is no need to delay.
Some things are always better to be resolved early than late.
??Besides, now that the empire¡¯s territory has expanded a lot, the population is still somewhat insufficient just relying on the cultivation of the virtual world.
Firstly, it takes too long and consumes a lot of money.
Now Zhao Hongyu needs to expand the population in a short period of time to make up for the gaps in the empire's territory.
Therefore, it has become a top priority to get people from the Eastern Ming Dynasty who are also of Chinese blood.
think about it. I have been in the American continent for three winters and two summers.
Doing the math, that¡¯s a little over two years.
But the empire¡¯s population of Chinese people has not yet exceeded 500,000.
Even if genetic people from other ethnic groups are included, the population of the empire is only over one million.
¡°But the number of European laborers working and living in the empire has exceeded one million.
¡°This does not include hundreds of thousands of other black slaves and hundreds of thousands of European prisoners.
It can be said that the Chinese population is still at a disadvantage here in America.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu and the others must think of ways to make up for this disadvantage.
Years ago, Zhao Hongyu saved a year¡¯s worth of funds. In the end, only 77,000 Chinese genetic people were cultivated.
At this rate, it is unlikely that the Chinese population will increase much within five years.
Even five years later, because of the coal and iron ore resources in Ontario City, a lot of funds can be exchanged from the virtual world and used to cultivate genetic humans.
But it is foreseeable that that will not allow the population to exceed the three million mark.
What is the concept of three million people? It is basically worse than Portugal.
Even the Portuguese in this era have a population of four million.
There is no reliable population. The empire also negotiated construction and development.
And the entire American continent is so big, even with a population of just a few million, it is impossible to control the entire America.
This is a very dangerous thing.
"If one day Europeans know the reality of the empire, they will definitely be in big trouble.
so. Bringing people from the East to America has become a very important matter.
The reason is very simple. After Wang Shan, Zhang Tie and Professor Liu¡¯s calculations, if Dongfang¡¯s trip goes smoothly.
? Then it only takes a year. This would add almost 2 million people to the population of America.
After all, today¡¯s world is plagued by constant disasters and many homeless people are bankrupt.
2 million unsafe and dangerous refugees. It can still be sold to him with the consent of Ming Dynasty.
And the number of 2 million people is more than the amount of using the time and space trader to cultivate genetic people in one year.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off???
But if you can put itTo quell the Ming Dynasty and convince them to sell the refugees to themselves, the Chinese population can increase by 2 million people in one year.
This is such a good thing.
With these 2 million people, Zhao Hongyu can establish 200 settlements on the American continent, with 10,000 people in each settlement.
Although it is impossible to control the entire American continent with 200 settlements, at least North America can control it reliably.
No matter what, it is better than what it is now.
When the time comes, let the genetic people of Chinese origin serve as officials in these settlements and let them manage the immigrants from the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking about it, it won¡¯t cause much trouble.
You must know that the immigrants in the Ming Dynasty were actually very well managed.
As long as you give them some land and give them hope, they won't cause trouble.
This is much better than Europeans.
??Chinese people are the most hard-working and best-managed ethnic group in the world.
How could Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan, who are Chinese, not know this?
Although France has now sent little Louis XIII as an envoy, he is on his way to the Song Empire in America.
At the same time, Zhao Hongyu and the others also analyzed the intention of little Louis XIII's visit this time.
However, Zhao Hongyu did not want to delay his trip because of the imminent arrival of little Louis XIII.
¡°Anyway, let Zhang Tie handle the matters regarding little Louis XIII.
Thinking about it, Zhang Tie can handle it very well.
Don¡¯t you just hope that you can provide assistance? In fact, there is nothing difficult about it.
As long as the French can come up with collateral, then aid is not a problem.
Even if the French want to turn against each other in the future, they can still have a normal excuse to invade Europe, right?
But right now, it is more important to go to the East and build up the population.
¡°And on this trip to the East, Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t just want to get people from the Ming Dynasty.
If the situation allows. Even the populations from Vietnam, Siam, Korea and Japan are not impossible to get back.
When the time comes, the Chinese people will be treated as first-class people, and the immigrants from the Ming Dynasty will be treated as second-class people to manage the immigrants from other countries. Otherwise, the immigrants from other countries will simply be treated as slaves.
Calculated in this way, it is not certain that the population of the American continent may even exceed the four million mark within one year.
At this rate, it will only take five years. By then, the population of the American Song Empire will reach the 20 to 30 million people he boasted at the beginning.
Of course, as the population increases, some hidden dangers will also appear.
But, that¡¯s all for the future.
For now, everything should be focused on increasing the population.
Who allowed the empire to control too much land but not enough population to utilize and occupy it?
This is also something that there is really no way to do.
Therefore, it is impossible for Zhao Hongyu and the others to be picky.
Unless they just keep developing, they will use genetic people and develop for decades.
But how could Zhao Hongyu wait for such a long time.
This is very unrealistic.
Moreover. Professor Liu is right. Now that we have come to this era, we must go to the East to see more.
Even Zhao Hongyu can go to the north of Ming Dynasty. Let¡¯s experience for ourselves whether ¡®we, the Qing Dynasty¡¯, are as enlightened and powerful as those ¡®brick masters¡¯ and ¡®calling beasts¡¯ of later generations said.
Manhattan Pier
Groups of private soldiers lined up neatly on the deck and boarded their respective battleships.
Zhang Tie and a group of Manhattan civil servants also came to the pier to see him off.
Zhao Hongyu and Zhang Tie started chatting here. Zhang Tie told Zhao Hongyu to be careful.
Black Bear also came to the dock, he came to see Emma off.
And the widows of the Samuel family also came to see Sarah off.
Wang Shan and Anais stood beside Zhao Hongyu. The two people were whispering something.
Because Anais was reluctant to leave Wang Shan, Zhao Hongyu asked Wang Shan to simply take Anais with him.
¡°Anyway, when we get to the west coast, Wang Shan can get off the ship.
By then, a settlement has been established, and Wang Shan can be there with AnaisYou've been living a stable life for a while, haven't you?
In the end, Wang Shan agreed.
After all, he is a little reluctant to leave Anais now.
"Your Highness, after going to the East, everything was done with money. Professor Liu said that all the famous officials at this time were greedy for money. If we want to implement the immigration plan smoothly, then money must not be used less."
Zhang Tie kept reminding Zhao Hongyu that he must pay attention to this.
These words were all given to Zhang Tie by Professor Liu, who left Manhattan after the Chinese New Year.
Zhao Hongyu nodded repeatedly after listening to Zhang Tie's instructions.
Money is nothing to him. The Song Empire has nothing but plenty of money.
¡°If the gold and silver can be exchanged for the needed population, there is nothing wrong with Zhao Hongyu.
Things like gold and silver are only useful if you say they are useful. But if you say they are useless, they are of no use at all.
You can eat it or not, but it¡¯s just cold metal.
To be honest, these gold and silver are not as useful as food.
??????????? At least, food can fill the stomach, so people don¡¯t have to go hungry.
"Don't worry, I know everything myself. We are not short of money. It can even be said that money is nothing to us, but population is the most important thing."
Zhao Hongyu nodded and said to Zhang Tie.
Seeing that Zhao Hongyu had such an understanding, Zhang Tie smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness, the populations of Annan, Siam, Korea, and Japan cannot be wasted. No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat."
Finally, Zhang Tie winked at Zhao Hongyu for a while.
Zhao Hongyu certainly understood the meaning of Zhang Tie's words.
"Don't worry, of course I know how to harm them. We have money."
After Zhao Hongyu said this, he and Zhang Tie laughed sinisterly together. (To be continued. Mobile phone users please go to read.) - Didn't finish reading?
