Human purgatory.

In fact, the casualties caused by hundreds of soldiers were not too many. Except for the first round of fire, the impact of the sword and shield hand only killed a few hundred people in total.

However, trampling in the crowd is the biggest casualty.

Panic spread rapidly. At this time, there is no need for strong force. You just need to run faster than others to survive.

The weakness of human nature is fully exposed, and if you push each other carelessly, you will fall down.

Because of the previous demonstrations, the crowd density was extremely high, and if they fell down, they would never have a chance to stand up again.

Especially for some women, the strength itself is not as strong as that of men. In the face of life and death, there is no distinction between men and women. It is good to be able to take care of yourself.

"Foreign barbarians dare to violate my Ming law, this time I will let you learn the lesson."

"Send the order, withdraw the troops."

Chikichi Chito said with a sneer.

Of course, he didn't intend to kill all these people. From now on, Hong Kong Island will be where his Thousand Households will be stationed.

If he really wants to kill everyone, not only will Shangfeng blame him, but he will probably run out of oil and water.

As long as these barbarians know that to make a living in the territory of Ming Dynasty, they must be honest and good people.

Anyone who dares to violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty will be taught in blood.

The parade team quickly dispersed, leaving behind a lot of wounded and dead bodies.

These things of cleaning the battlefield have nothing to do with the Qianhu Office, and the Public Security Office is responsible for finishing it.

Hundreds of yamen servants rushed over.

The leader is Chen Tao, director of the newly appointed Hong Kong Public Security Bureau.

Looking at the devastation, Chen Tao said helplessly to a foreign businessman next to him, "Eddie, what a fool, what are you doing against the government? I really thought that Daming is such a small barbarian place, and if you gather some people, you will oppress the government."

"The law does not blame the public. There is no such thing. In our Daming, there is only the difference between good people and mobs."

The foreign merchants came from the Angkor Dynasty in Nanyang, that is, Chenla. They are well-known maritime merchants and are also nobles.

Ordinary people obviously don't have the qualifications to be able to do sea trade business.

"My lord, it was our mistake this time, which angered the Ming government. I will present an apology gift to the leader of the army to appease his anger."

"But with so many casualties this time, they will definitely report to the envoys of the capital and sue the honorable Emperor Ming for the unfair treatment they received. On this point, I hope Director Chen can understand."

In Eddie's tone, there was a trace of fear and a trace of grievance.

Chen Tao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, go ahead and appeal, but I want to remind you that His Majesty is not so nice, and this time involves illegal occupation of land, you must know that my grandson of the Ming Dynasty once made a law on this matter , Any land is not allowed to be bought or sold without permission.”

Eddie suppressed his anger when he heard the words and said: "This place represents more than a dozen countries, and there are a large number of nobles among the casualties."

Chen Tao shrugged: "That's all right, do you think our Daming will worry about this?"

"I'm just telling you as a friend. If you don't believe me, go ahead. If you are targeted by the guard, don't pretend that I didn't tell you in advance."

"You have to know that the Ministry of War is integrated, and the Daming Navy also belongs to the Ministry of War."

Hearing the words Daming Navy, Eddie immediately got stuck in his throat.

They are all living at sea, if they encounter the evil hands of the Daming Navy in the vast sea, there is really nothing they can do.

"Okay, think about it for yourself. Right now, we are cooperating with our public security station to treat these criminals who dared to attack the barracks."

After Chen Tao finished speaking, he didn't care about Eddie any more, and went forward a few steps to maintain order.

Hearing the word "criminal", Eddie's eyes became even more angry.

He didn't expect that at this time, the security station would take advantage of the fire to rob.

Ke Ren was under the eaves and had to bow his head.

These foreign maritime merchants still have many contacts in the coastal area of ​​Daming.

Does money lead the way?

A large number of pleading papers began to be passed around in various yamen, all of which were aimed at Qianhu Xiji of Qianhu Office.

In these descriptions on the sea, Qianhu Xiji is a devil who kills innocent people indiscriminately, slaughtering unarmed people wantonly, causing thousands of deaths and injuries.

Not only seriously damaged the friendship between the various countries and Ming Dynasty, but also jeopardized the safety of maritime trade.

There are even many maritime merchants clamoring that if Daming does not give a satisfactory answer, they will consider Daming's commercial security, and may not have business relations with Daming in the future.

Things started to ferment very quickly, and many envoys from the capital had already appealed to the Ministry of Rites, demanding that the murderer be severely punished.

The Ministry of Rites has no clue about the diplomatic matters involving more than a dozen countries, and finally this matter came to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"How many people died?"

"About 400 people, including thousands of injured people."

"We heard that it was these barbarians who stormed the barracks, and the Qianhu Office suppressed them after repeated warnings?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is true."

"Then there's nothing else to say. These people are nothing but mobs. Not only did Qianhu have no faults, but they have made merit and should be rewarded. Isn't our eldest grandson in the Guangzhou mansion? Let us pass on our ideas and let grandson decide. "

"Follow Your Majesty's order."

The big reversal came so fast that the envoys of the capital didn't even react.

The original aggressive appeal, but after the word from the Ministry of Rites came down, all the flags died down.

They are not those maritime merchants, envoys who have been living in the capital, and they are very clear about their position.

The alliance has no meaning at all. For the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, the whole world should belong to Ming Dynasty, and many countries here are regarded as subordinate countries of Ming Dynasty.

Guangzhou Fucheng.

Zhu Ying laughed.

"Do they think that if Daming doesn't do business with them, it will bring great losses to Daming? I have ordered to investigate the businessmen who said these things, and from now on it is forbidden to enter the territory of Daming."

"Follow the order of His Majesty the Grandson."

As far as the current overseas market is concerned, it can be said that it is completely Daming's home field.

However, the vast territory of Ming Dynasty is rich in products and can be completely self-sufficient. For overseas goods, most of them can only be regarded as a curiosity, not a necessity.

Especially now, Annan and the Kyushu of the Wa Kingdom are completely under the control of Daming, which is no different from direct jurisdiction.

The mineral deposits that were relatively scarce in the past are now transported in large quantities by the Wa Kingdom.

The Nanyang area is mainly food, and the best-selling tropical fruits and the like, all of which Annan can provide.

For Daming, with the continuous upgrading of the industrial base.

Although the scale of industrialization has not yet been formed, the situation of the cluster has rapidly increased the output of various handicraft products.

With the establishment of craftsman schools and the suppression of the imperial power, we are now under widespread attack, and more boutique production methods have begun to become popular.

As the sea trade became more and more prosperous, the market demand began to increase, the number of private factories increased, and more and more goods were naturally produced.

In the international market, the industrial products produced by Daming have become the mainstream.

This is unmatched by other countries, Central Asia, India, and Europe.

In this troubled world, only by doing business with Daming can one earn enough profit.

Soon, these foreign businessmen who made harsh remarks were found out, and they were businessmen from the Ayutthaya Dynasty.

After getting the news, Zhu Ying issued an order.

The first is to impose economic sanctions on these businessmen, including their families, to expel them all from the country, and to ban them from entering Daming territory forever.

Secondly, the tariffs on all customs goods of the Ayutthaya Dynasty will be increased by [-]% within three years as a punishment.

This way of handling is like a bolt from the blue to all overseas businessmen.

No one expected that the grandson of Ming Dynasty would impose such a severe punishment.

The [-]% tariff, although there is still money to be made, is a huge blow to all the nobles of the Ayutthaya Dynasty.

There are also subsequent consequences.

Because the merchants of the Ayutthaya Dynasty offended the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, merchants from other countries also deliberately alienated the Ayutthaya Dynasty in order to avoid their own interests being affected.

The reason why the Ayutthaya Dynasty is so arrogant is naturally closely related to their geographical location.

If HNA wants to leave Nanyang and go to Central Asia, India and other regions, there are only two options.

Either through the Straits of Malacca.

Either through the territory of the Ayutthaya Dynasty.

With this geographical advantage, the goods purchased by the Ayutthaya Dynasty from Daming can be more conveniently transported to Central Asia, India and other regions.

The farther away, the higher the price and profit of the goods.

Since the Ming Dynasty opened the sea, among the maritime merchants of various countries, the Ayutthaya Dynasty is undoubtedly the one with the highest income.

But now, maybe a lot of changes are about to happen.

"I have been preparing to deal with them for a long time, and now I am still hitting the muzzle, which is really a good excuse."

Zhu Ying came to Guangzhou Mansion.

In addition to the affairs of the Daming Ocean Trade Chamber of Commerce, they are also planning to mobilize the navy to occupy Malacca.

Because these soldiers will be stationed in Malacca for a long time, instead of temporary transfers like before, in order to better stabilize the morale of the army and improve the loyalty of the soldiers, Zhu Ying came here in person.

The Strait of Malacca is connected to the Ayutthaya Dynasty, and the plan was to take all the land across the strait.

"Your Highness, although there is no need to worry about these foreign businessmen, if they talk nonsense, it will still affect my Ming's business."

"Would you like Di Baosi to explain this?"

It was Guan Xianghai who spoke.

About him, a letter has already been sent to the capital.

As soon as the imperial court arranged for a new Zuo Buzheng to come, Guan Xianghai went directly to the Daming Ocean Trading Chamber of Commerce as a steward.

Recently, it is natural to listen to Zhu Ying's teachings.

The Jingshi Mansion Newspaper is distributed all over the world, and in the other [-] Chengxuan Political and Envoy Divisions, with the development of the Mansion Newspaper Division the year before last, local Mansion Newspaper Divisions have been established.

What Guan Xianghai meant was to publish this incident on the Guangdong Dibao Newspaper.

Zhu Ying nodded: "The conflict this time was mainly caused by the illegal parade of chambers of commerce in various countries. It was mainly because of the secret guidance of the merchants of the Ayutthaya Dynasty, including the illegal purchase of land, which was also caused by the bribery of the Ayutthaya Dynasty."

"During this conflict, the main casualties were not caused by our officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, but by the mutual pushing and trampling of the crowd. This must be made clear."

"It must be stated in the residence newspaper that illegal parades are currently prohibited in Daming, and any parade activities must be approved by the government before they can be held."

"Any demonstration of a private nature will be defined as a riot."

"Finally, I would like to warn the people of the world with this matter. To enter our Ming Dynasty, we must understand our laws and abide by our laws. Any illegal transactions will not be protected by Ming Dynasty. This is what every foreign businessman needs to abide by. Behavior."

Guan Xianghai bowed slightly: "I will convey the grandson's meaning to the residence newspaper department."

Guangdong Dibao may not be read by everyone, but everyone must read it, whether it is a Ming businessman or a foreign businessman.

Because on this, the latest business policies will be described, including some real-time developments.

The punishment for the merchants of the Ayutthaya Dynasty was also announced on it.

"I didn't expect the Ming government to think that the merchants of the Dacheng Dynasty secretly led all of this. The mansion newspaper department is too arbitrary. It seems that they didn't even investigate much, so they settled down like this."

In the house of Hong Kong Island Yahang, Eddie and several Chenla businessmen gathered together to discuss the current situation.

Following the final conclusion of the Emperor Ming's coffin at the capital, they were all ready to run away, but this matter somehow fell on the head of the Dacheng Dynasty.

"There is a saying in Ming Dynasty that a big tree attracts the wind. The merchants of the Ayutthaya Dynasty were too arrogant and arrogant. They increased their wealth by blocking the Strait of Malacca, and forgot who gave them the wealth."

"Perhaps the Ming government has been eyeing them for a long time, but they just took this opportunity. No matter who planned this parade, they will be blamed."

In Eddie's words, there was a bit of rejoicing.

He knew that the nobles of the Dacheng dynasty in Daming were finished, especially those who were clamoring.

Not only no one dared to do business with them, but they would also be squeezed out by domestic nobles after they returned home.

This is the influence of the Ming Dynasty. Just a decree from the grandson of the Ming Dynasty can cut off the future of many nobles.

"I heard that the grandson of Ming Dynasty will take his vows at the Hong Kong port the day after tomorrow. Are you going to watch it? You are allowed to watch this time." Eddie's companion on the left asked.

Eddie smiled and said, "That's the legend of Daming, we're all going there, and we have to go early, otherwise we won't even be able to grab the seat."

"The grandson of Daming, this is the most powerful person in the world right now."

"If anyone can get his favor, then he can really go straight to the top."

There was hope in everyone's eyes.

Compared to Daming, his own country is like a dilapidated village.

Why do they try their best to buy land in Daming? Their biggest wish is to obtain Daming household registration.

But Daming's household registration is too difficult.

Especially the recent rumors that because too many foreign businessmen have caused security troubles to Daming, a foreign visa policy may be introduced.

That is to say, without the household registration of Daming, one will not be allowed to stay in Daming territory for a long time.
