- "Your Highness, we plan to open up more fertile land for growing food and vegetables after a period of time. There is a lot of land here but most of it is undeveloped. It can be seen that the Dutch have not made good use of the land in Cayenne. ."
In the Governor¡¯s Mansion, as the Chinese governor in charge of the colony, he was reporting on his work to Zhao Hongyu.
As a member of the military, Chelsea was of course retained.
Although he doesn¡¯t care about government affairs, after all, his identity is there, so it doesn¡¯t matter if he stays and listens.
"The climate here is very good, and the wild fruit resources are also very rich. If we can make good use of it, then we can have another area that produces fruit, and it will still be pollution-free."
The young governor of Chinese origin blinked at Zhao Hongyu.
Behind these words, there is another layer of meaning.
Zhao Hongyu still understands this meaning.
These genetic people in high positions all know that their majesty possesses a heaven-defying cheating device.
If this thing is used properly, the profits can be huge.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Zhao Hongyu to build such a huge empire and occupy such a large territory in just over two years.
Now, even the entire America is almost under control.
It can be seen how important the role of this heaven-defying plug-in is.
Unlike other countries, the materials and commodities produced by those countries are not only consumed by themselves, but also sold to other countries to earn the money the country needs.
But the problem is that in today¡¯s countries, most of the products are either insufficient or have various reasons.
The Song Empire was different. Because of Zhao Hongyu¡¯s heaven-defying plug-in, there was no need to worry about excess output.
Because, he can completely sell these substances to the virtual world.
After being sold to the virtual world, Zhao Hongyu can also use the currency to buy the "high-tech" products he needs to develop his own empire in the seventeenth century.
This point is unmatched by any country in this era.
The grain, fruits and even vegetables produced here are very popular in the virtual world.
The reason is very simple, it is green and pollution-free.
Even the cattle, sheep and pigs raised on Manhattan Island can be bought at a good price based on this.
Because the situation in the virtual world is exactly the same as that in the future where Zhao Hongyu lives.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu and the others don¡¯t have to worry about their output materials being backlogged or unable to be sold.
Such a situation is simply impossible to occur.
Therefore, when it comes to development, the administrators of the empire have always been very bold.
After listening to the administrator's development plan, Zhao Hongyu nodded: "You can make up your own mind on this matter. You all know that I have always been the boss who hands off the boss. I only want to see the results. As for the process, I will leave it to you." Think about it yourself. But the climate here is really good. If you can really take advantage of it, I think the output here will definitely be great."
Zhao Hongyu really didn¡¯t want to get involved in their plan.
After all, as the de facto ruler of an empire, Zhao Hongyu cannot do everything himself.
If that¡¯s the case, what should Wang Shan and the others do?
¡°And I¡¯m not a superman.
¡°If I really had to do everything by myself, I would probably be exhausted.
In a huge empire, there are so many decisions and things to do one by one.
¡°Zhao Hongyu still wants to live for two more years, and he doesn¡¯t want to die so early.
For Zhao Hongyu, as long as he controls a general direction, he can just let the people below do the rest.
This saves worry and makes it easier for your subordinates to do their jobs.
Therefore, after listening to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s words, the Chinese governor standing opposite him smiled and nodded in agreement.
Then, under his leadership and greeting, a banquet began¡ª¡ª
Dividing line¡ª¡ª
While a banquet was being held to welcome Zhao Hongyu to Cayenne, a warship flying the Dutch flag sailed into the Caribbean waters.
This Dutch commercial and warship was diverted directly from the east coast of Africa and did not return to Europe.
So, they still don¡¯t know that there has been a new ruler in the Caribbean.
For them, the current southern Caribbean region is still the territory of their Dutch.
In fact, this ship looks no different from other Dutch merchant ships.
However, on its deck, there was a person who was incompatible with the surroundings, which made this ship seem different.
On the deck, a tall man with black hair and black eyes wearing a robe was tied under a pole.
It is obvious that this man looks very different from the people around him.
"You red-haired ghosts are going to die a good death. Even if I am a ghost, I, Liu Da Scar, will not let you go. Come into your mother's house and give me a good time. If you are a man, don't be like this."
A series of oriental languages ??were shouted out from this man's mouth. It turned out that he was an oriental.
There is indeed a long scar on his face, which makes them look very fierce.
No wonder he calls himself Liu Da Scar.
It¡¯s just that this is a Dutch ship.
As an Oriental, how did he get on a Dutch ship and be transported from the East to the Caribbean by the Dutch?
And judging from his current situation, it is obvious that his current situation is not very good.
It¡¯s very possible that this guy pissed off these Dutch people, otherwise he wouldn¡¯t have been tied to the pole.
At this time, the sky was bright and the sun was shining brightly.
The hot sunshine shining on the sea is not so comfortable.
But anyone who runs on the sea knows that basking in the sun on the sea is definitely not a good thing.
And this Liu¡¯s scarred lips have been sun-dried and cracked, and his voice has begun to sound hoarse.
"My son, stop being so impulsive. These red-haired ghosts really killed people when it was too busy. What should I do, old man?"
At this time, from an unknown direction on the deck, another person shouted.
A Dutch sailor walked to the center of the deck, stopped at an iron bar and yelled in weird Chinese: "Stop shouting. If you shout again, I will throw you all into the sea."
Well!
Liu Dashen, who was on the pole, had already passed out from the sun, so his cursing had stopped.
The man who was imprisoned in the cabin below also stopped speaking after hearing what the Dutchman said.
Seeing that these people stopped talking, the Dutch sailor left with satisfaction.
"Old man, where are these red-haired ghosts going to take us?"
Under the iron bars was a cabin where slaves were held.
At this time, there were no less than two hundred people in ragged clothes, with dirty faces, and black hair and black eyes imprisoned in this cabin.
"If Zhao Hongyu were here, he would definitely know where they came from if he heard the language they used in their conversation, plus their clothes and hairstyles.
Yes, these people are the people of Dongfang Ming Dynasty.
But, for some unknown reason, they appeared on the Dutch ship and were imprisoned here by the Dutch.
And there is no description of Orientals being trafficked to the Americas in history.
Of course, this refers to the seventeenth century.
By the 19th century, this statement no longer existed.
During the late Qing Dynasty, when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Beijing, and during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, many Orientals were sold to the United States to build railroads.
But in this era, there is really no news about Chinese being brought to America.
The reason is simple. It is far less convenient to get people from the East than from Africa.
The journey to the east is far and long, and it also takes a long time.
¡°And everyone doesn¡¯t know what price Orientals can sell them for.
Besides, Dongfang at this time was far from as weak as it was in the late Qing Dynasty.
Although the Ming Dynasty in this era has begun to decline, it is not something that Europeans can bully.
At the same time, the pirates on the eastern coast are beyond the ability of Europeans to deal with.
Therefore, it is simply unrealistic for Europeans to want to increase their population from the Ming Dynasty like Africa did.
Coupled with the possibility of not making money, this is why such a thing has not happened in history.
But the problem is, after all, there are people from the Eastern Ming Dynasty on the Dutch ship.
This is a bit interesting.
ShipThe conversation continued, and Liu Dashang, who was dizzy from the sun on the pole, was put down by the Dutch and thrown in again.
It can be seen from Liu Dashen's reaction that his current condition is very bad.
After being exposed to the sun, his entire body was severely dehydrated.
Even if he is in good health, no one can say for sure whether he can survive now.
"Old Master Wang, please think of a way. Let us know whether we can survive."
In the darkness, a group of people in the cabin gathered around.
¡°Obviously, they are all led by a man who is over fifty years old and looks very old.
Old Master Wang, that is, a skinny little old man surrounded by everyone in the center, his whole face trembled when he heard the person next to him ask such a question.
"To be honest, whether they can survive and where the Dutch are going to take them is a question that he can't answer.
Now that their life and death are in the hands of the Dutch, what can he say as one of them.
¡°It¡¯s hard to say~¡±
Old Master Wang sighed deeply.
"Perhaps, these Dutch people don't want to kill us. Otherwise, why would they bring us so far to this place?"
Recalling what happened to them, Mr. Wang also had some hope in his heart.
Yes, the Dutch did not kill them. It is obvious that these people have some value.
They may be taken to a certain place to do hard labor, or they may be trafficked to other countries.
Annam or Siam, or the countries in the South China Sea?
"How many days have we been at sea?"
Old Master Wang asked in a deep voice.
Someone immediately replied: "It's been five months and eighteen days in total. I've been counting."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
Yes, five months and eighteen days, I was locked in a dark cabin like this, aimlessly.
What are the plans of these Dutch people?
?No one understands.
If you want to kill them, the Dutch have plenty of ways and opportunities at sea.
If you just tie them into a bunch and throw them into the sea, they will die, and there will be no hope of survival.
But the Dutch didn't do that.
¡°If they were to be sold, it would be impossible for them to stay at sea for such a long time for no reason.
¡°Because in terms of time, whether you are going to Annan or Japan, or Siam or the countries in the South China Sea, you will have arrived by now.
Is it possible
Master Wang thought of another situation.
However, he was soon interrupted from his contemplation.
"Father, Master, Liu Dashen is awake."
Ouch!
Since Liu Dashen was thrown in, someone has been taking care of him.
Now that he woke up, someone immediately whispered to Mrs. Wang.
From this perspective, Liu Dashen¡¯s status among these people is not low.
Mrs. Wang came back to her senses, groped in the dark and came to Liu Dashen.
"The situation is not very good, my body is very hot."
After Master Wang came over, a young man who was looking after Liu Dascar whispered to Master Wang.
Mrs. Wang nodded and looked attentively.
Liu Dashen woke up and opened his chapped lips.
"You thief, didn't Hongmao throw me into the sea?"
Dare, he thought he had been treated by the Dutch.
Mrs. Wang quickly said: "Boss Liu, have a good rest. Don't go against the red-haired people. Now the life and death of us people are in the hands of the red-haired people. You have to think about it. They are now Obviously they don¡¯t want us to die, so that we can hope to live. Only by surviving can we have a chance to take revenge."
Mrs. Wang¡¯s words made Liu Da¡¯s scarred eyes flicker in the darkness.
Alive! revenge!
"Zheng Zhilong, if this bastard hadn't colluded with Hongmao and the Portuguese, how could our brothers end up like this?"
Liu Dascar said in a hateful voice.
However, due to long-term exposure to the sun, his physical condition is no longer very good.
Therefore, he speaks very weakly now, so he has no momentum.
But from himBut it can be heard in the words that these Easterners locked in the cabin were all killed by a man named Zheng Zhilong.
The young man who was looking after Liu Dasheng raised his head and placed it on his lap to make him feel more comfortable. Then he said: "Boss, Master Wang is right. Hong Mao and usual It's not the same. If they had caught us, we would have been thrown into the sea, or they would have been hanged. They wouldn't have kept us for such a long time, so I think they didn't want us to die, so we had a chance to survive. "
Through the window made of iron bars not far away, I could vaguely see the little sunlight leaking through. The young man taking care of Liu Dashen was very young. In future generations, he would only be fifteen or sixteen years old.
"As long as we survive and have a chance, we can take revenge."
After hearing what this young man said, Master Wang sighed in his heart.
Thought: I hope it won¡¯t be like what I thought. If this is the case, although we can survive, it will definitely be worse than death. As for revengedon't even think about it
Because what Master Wang was thinking was that these red-haired ghosts might want to take them back to Europa.
"Otherwise, this ship would not have been at sea for such a long time. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
