Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhao Hongyu and Li Xiang discussed what business could be done here in Jiuzhou at the small bar.  Then Zhao Hongyu had an idea, so he chatted with Li Xiang about various Eastern gossips.

    ¡°About two hours later, Zhao Hongyu and Li Xiang separated, and they each left the tavern.

    After Zhao Hongyu left the tavern, he returned directly to the mansion. At the same time, he summoned his adjutant and asked him to immediately start building the Eastern Trading Branch of the 'Umbrella' Company and the Kyushu Branch of the Imperial Commerce Department.

    Since Kyushu has fallen into his control, there are some things that cannot be delayed any longer.

    After arranging these things, Zhao Hongyu found Emma and Sarah and told them to prepare to leave Nagasaki the next day and go to the Ming Dynasty.

    Yes, Zhao Hongyu has been wasted in Japan for a long time, and he doesn't want to be delayed any longer.

    ¡° Moreover, there are not many days left until the Chinese New Year.

    So, Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t want him to catch up with people celebrating the Ming Dynasty¡¯s festival when he arrived in the Ming Dynasty.

    If it gets to this point, it will be really sad.

    Because during the New Year period, everyone in the Ming Dynasty, from top to bottom, from the emperor to the small servants, had to take a holiday.

    Therefore, it is very likely that Zhao Hongyu will not be able to find anyone to do anything in the Ming Dynasty.

    Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, Zhao Hongyu was ready to leave here as quickly as possible when the affairs in Jiuzhou were almost settled.

    ¡°Anyway, I will leave genetic people to garrison here. As long as they are here in Kyushu, Kyushu will surely develop slowly and steadily.

    At the same time, Li Xiang's surrender gave Zhao Hongyu Jiuzhou Navy a strong guarantee.

    It can be said that even if I am not here in Kyushu, Kyushu has nothing to worry about.

    As the governor of Kyushu, Tokugawa Kayo managed the government affairs of all Kyushu, and the Japanese did not reject her.  Therefore, many government orders were implemented very smoothly, and there was no violation of the laws.

    ??And the military power is divided, and no one can dominate the family.

    Hattori Onizou, Kawabe Yuuji, and Iguchi Zozo divided the Japanese legions who had taken refuge under Zhao Hongyu.

    At the same time, each of them also has their own little calculation in their own hearts.

    Therefore, Zhao Hongyu is not worried at all that these people will unite and have any destructive impact on the stability of Kyushu.

    You must know that the political and military divisions were divided. At the same time, Zhao Hongyu was corrupting the Kyushu Japanese with various tangible commodities.  Under such a subtle influence, how did Tokugawa Kayo and others influence Kyushu?

    ¡°After all, they don¡¯t have the means like Zhao Hongyu to bring the same life to the people of Kyushu.

    When Emma and Sarah learned that they were about to leave here with their husbands, both of them were very happy.

    To be honest, they are tired of life here in Japan.

    Because there is nothing fun here, even the environment is not much better.

    Low houses, dusty streets.

    ¡°Compared to the bustling, lively and cleanliness of Manhattan in America, this place is simply like a garbage dump.

    ¡° If the empire hadn¡¯t started hiring Japanese people to build streets and lay cement roads these days, and at the same time started the construction of Nagasaki¡¯s commercial center, Nagasaki wouldn¡¯t have become so lively.

    Although Nagasaki is on the east side, it can be considered a lively port city.

    ¡°However, compared with Manhattan City under the Song Empire in America, Nagasaki is very rubbish.

    You know, some high-end communities in Manhattan are now connected to electricity, and even trams are in operation.

    At the same time, Manhattan¡¯s low sewage pipes extending in all directions, as well as the port that can accommodate 300 ships at the same time, are still being expanded.

    Especially the population of Manhattan has exceeded the two million mark at this time.

    Even Quebec has exceeded 700,000 people, and Ontario City has exceeded 1 million people.

    Counting other cities under construction, the population of the entire Song Empire is almost five million.

    Of course, the largest populations are Indians and Europeans who come from the other side of the ocean to make a living.

    The proportion of Chinese ethnic groups under the empire is still a bit lower.?.

    However, because some permissions were opened by Zhao Hongyu, those genetic people with administrative status, such as Song Huwangshan, they regularly cultivate Chinese genetic people every month to increase the proportion of Chinese ethnic groups in the empire.

    Therefore, the number of ethnic Chinese people is steadily increasing every month.

    It is only a matter of time before it becomes the largest population group in the empire.

    People who have never been there will not understand the prosperity and excitement of Manhattan.

    But anyone who has been there will definitely fall in love with this open city of the Song Empire.

    Many maritime merchants from the Arab world and Europe basically have this idea.

    After these people came to Manhattan, they immediately fell in love with this clean and tidy urban environment with well-proportioned streets.

    Especially the people here are not as decent as the lower class people in Europe or the Arab world, and at the same time they are very moral.

    This makes many businessmen who have been to Manhattan very curious.

    In fact, they know that when people can make enough money through their own abilities and abilities, few people will do such illegal things.

    Because it¡¯s totally not worth it.

    The seventeenth century was originally an era of change where ignorance and enlightenment intertwined.

    Human beings still need to explore for a long time before they can slowly find the path to modern development.

    However, because of the arrival of Zhao Hongyu, great changes have taken place in this time and space in the seventeenth century.

    The American Song Empire was born out of nowhere. After it appeared at a staggering speed, it appeared in front of the world with the attitude of a strong man and a strong neighbor.

    Of course, the only people who know how powerful the Song Empire is now are Europeans.

    Although the Ottoman Turkish Empire, which established diplomatic relations with the Song Empire, inquired about some information about the Song Empire from Europeans, the Turks did not believe what the Europeans said at all.

    Like the Song Empire was very powerful, both in terms of navy and army.

    The Ottoman Turkish Empire recognized that the Song Empire¡¯s army tactics were novel and very effective.

    The warships in the navy also look very fierce.

    However, after all, the two empires have never fought before, so we can only imagine how powerful each other is.

    Especially the Ottoman Turks, they thought that the Europeans were exaggerating and that the Song Empire was a bit fake.

    In the eyes of the Ottoman Turks, if there is any army in the world that is the most powerful, then only the army of their empire is the most powerful.

    You know, when they came here in Europe, they beat the Europeans to the point of crying for their fathers and mothers.

    And Europeans also call them the whip of God.

    Therefore, the Ottoman Empire is very proud of their own combat effectiveness.

    Moreover, at this time, the territory of the Ottoman Turkish Empire was very vast.

    It is far larger than the Turkish Empire in another time and space, and the territory it controls is much larger.

    After all, this is still the seventeenth century, isn¡¯t it?

    Because the communication technology of this era is not very developed, countries in the world are unable to grasp and understand the situation in the Americas in the first time.

    In this era, only the Song Empire could produce shocking products.

    When Zhao Hongyu decided to take his two wives to Daming the next day, people in Manhattan, far away in America, suddenly discovered that there were several more large iron towers in the city and suburbs.

    In fact, the construction of these towers has been going on for some time.

    ¡°When construction just started, these towers were not very conspicuous at all, and people didn¡¯t think these towers had any purpose.

    So, no one cares about these towers.

    However, people only noticed it after the tower was built.

    "However, people still don't have much interest in these towers.

    Because the people in Manhattan, except for citizens of Chinese descent, have no idea what changes these towers can bring to their lives.

    In the eyes of these residents living in Manhattan, as well as those maritime merchants and diplomats from European countries in Manhattan, the American Song Empire must have built iron towers to show off because there was too much iron ore.

    Yes, in this era, because smelting technology was not as developed as in later generations, people collected and refinedThe products are not that sophisticated, and the iron production in various countries is not very high.

    It is not like that of later generations. Let alone iron, steelmaking alone is calculated in tens of millions of tons.

    In this era, if a country can produce dozens of tons of iron billets every year, it means that the country is very powerful.

    But look at the Song Empire. The quality of the materials used to build the iron towers is much better than the iron produced in other countries, and the hardness and endurance are also much stronger.

    No matter how they look, they can¡¯t tell what kind of technology they are using.

    ¡°And the Song Empire actually had so much iron raw material, so much that they could use it to build iron towers instead of weapons.

    ? Iron raw materials are still strategic materials in this era.

    Because in this era, although muskets have begun to appear, the mainstream is still dominated by cold weapons.

    Only the Song Empire used muskets as the main weapon of war because of their sharp muskets.

    But even so, the Song Empire would equip its musketeers with machetes and bayonets.

    It can be seen that cold weapons have not withdrawn from the stage of history in this era.

    Therefore, the demand for iron raw materials in various countries is still very large.

    Regarding the Song Empire's waste of iron raw materials to build iron towers, diplomats from various countries have expressed contempt, envy, admiration and other emotions (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!  )
