Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 693
Zheng Yiguan stood on the port with excitement on his face.After drifting on the sea for such a long time, Zheng Yiguan finally stepped on the ground.

At this moment, Zheng Yiguan felt that the ground under his feet was so solid and so thick.

Hong Chengchou came to Zheng Yiguan with a group of followers.

Hong Chengchou recognized at a glance that the unshaven man with a rough face was Zheng Yiguan.

Zheng Yiguan had met Hong Chengchou several times before, so they also knew each other.

"I'm Zheng Yiguan, I've met Master Hong!" Zheng Yiguan cupped his hands at Hong Chengchou with a smile on his face.

At this time, Hong Chengchou was as kind to Zheng Yiguan as his natal family.

"General Zheng, it's been two years since we left. How is the general?" Hong Chengchou bowed back and said with a smile.

Zheng Yiguan said: "It's hard to describe in one word, I'm afraid only I know the bitterness of it. Fortunately, I finally completed the task assigned to me by the commander-in-chief!"

Hong Chengchou shook his head, "General, it's inappropriate to call you Lord Commander now!"

Zheng Yiguan was taken aback for a moment, and then a smile filled Zheng Yiguan's face.

"Master Hong means that your lord has already ascended the throne?" Zheng Yiguan looked at Hong Chengchou with piercing eyes, for fear that Hong Chengchou was lying to him.

Zheng Yiguan thought of this all at once.

"Has the world settled down now?"

"Your Majesty has been enthroned as emperor, the country is named Huaxia, and the year is named Qiyuan. It is now the first year of Qiyuan.

Although the world has not been completely pacified, Huguang, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi and Sichuan have been taken down.Because of the outbreak of the epidemic in Qingyang Mansion, Shaanxi, His Majesty did not rush to march as he had been doing all he could to deal with the epidemic.

It is estimated that His Majesty's next target will be the remaining places.General Zheng's return at this time is a good time to make contributions. "

Hong Chengchou basically told Zheng Yiguan what happened during Zheng Yiguan's departure.

Zheng Yiguan stared straight at Hong Chengchou without missing a word.

"General Zheng, this is not a place to talk. I have sent people to prepare the general's residence. Let's go back and talk about it in detail." Hong Chengchou said.

Zheng Yiguan nodded, "Master Hong is right, this is not the place to talk."

Zheng Yiguan turned his head and looked at Zheng Zhihu who was following behind him, "You tell me to get all the crew on the fleet down and take a good rest."

Now that Edo Castle has been taken by Hong Chengchou, Zheng Yiguan is not worried about any accidents with the cargo that the fleet pulls.

"Lord Hong, His Majesty ordered those things in the fleet by name. Please send some soldiers to watch carefully, so that no accidents will happen." Zheng Yiguan looked at Hong Chengchou.

"General Zheng, don't worry, I will order someone to take good care of it." After Hong Chengchou finished speaking, he turned around and made a gesture of invitation, "General Zheng, please!"

Zheng Yiguan also made a gesture of invitation, "Lord Hong, please!"

Not long after, Hong Chengchou took Zheng Yiguan to a house not far from the governor's office.

This house is the house of a retainer of the Tokugawa family. It is not luxurious, but it has everything that should be there.

Hong Chengchou took Zheng Yiguan to the main hall of the house.

After coming to the main hall, Hong Chengchou asked Zheng Yiguan to wait here for a while.He went out of the main hall by himself and arranged to receive Zheng Yiguan's subordinates.

After Hong Chengchou finished these things, he returned to Zheng Yiguan's house.

Hong Chengchou and Zheng Yiguan sat in the hall, and Hong Chengchou told Zheng Yiguan the changes in Xuanzhen in recent years in detail.

At this time, the crew of the fleet led by Zheng Yiguan also got off the ship and came to the port.

Under the leadership of the people arranged by Hong Chengchou, these people went to the city in a mighty way.

These people today are like beggars, without any image at all.

"Hey, are there any good-looking ladies in the city? Get some of them here. I've been holding back for so long. I need to relax!" A tough man shouted at a soldier leading them in front of him.

"That's right, get us some young ladies, we won't sleep tonight!"

This person's words quickly aroused everyone's response, and all kinds of obscene words came out of these people's mouths.

As night fell, candles were lit in Zheng Yiguan's house.

Hong Chengchou sat in front of a table in the main hall, which was filled with all kinds of food, and Zheng Yiguan sat opposite Hong Chengchou.

Hong Chengchou looked at the candles placed in the main hall, and said, "It's better to be in Xuanzhen, the electric lights there are really bright, and it's not comparable to candles at all. It's better to be in Xuanzhen!"

As soon as Hong Chengchou saw the candle, he thought of the electric light in Xuanzhen. Compared with the electric light, the candle was really dim.

"Is that electric light really that magical? Can it be lit without fire or oil?" Zheng Yiguan looked at Hong Chengchou curiously.

Zheng Yiguan had never seen an electric light before. When he heard Hong Chengchou talk about it just now, Zheng Yiguan racked his brains but couldn't figure out what the electric light looked like.

Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "That's natural, this electric light is a very magical thing. At night, the street lights in Xuanzhen will be turned on, and the whole Xuanzhen will be brightly lit like daytime.

Let me tell you, the best places to go in Xuanzhen at night these days are the night markets in Xuanzhen.Tsk tsk tsk, the last time I went back to Xuanzhen for business, the taste is really indescribable. "

Hong Chengchou's reminiscence expression made Zheng Yiguan greedy.

"It's really comfortable. It's not like me. I was like a savage in that America. The rough and gravel I ate every day was hard to swallow." Zheng Yiguan sighed with envy.

"By the way, what about America? Is there anything else besides rubber? I've heard His Majesty say that there seem to be a lot of mineral deposits there, and there are countless gold mines and silver mines. Is this true or false? of?" Hong Chengchou looked at Zheng Yiguan.

Zheng Yiguan patted his thigh, picked up the jug on the table in front of him, poured Hong Chengchou a glass of wine, and then poured himself another glass of wine.

Zheng Yiguan picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it down.

"I am dissatisfied with you, there are really many gold and silver mines in America. When I came back this time, I also brought some ore from there. In addition to gold and silver mines, there are also copper mines.

When I arrived in America, I robbed several silver and copper mines established by the Saxons.

Originally, I wanted to let people mine it, but because the rubber plantation urgently needed manpower, I didn't mine it.

In addition to the few mines I robbed, I also asked people to find mines that had not been discovered.The hard work paid off, and I really discovered a few mines.

Because of manpower, I asked people to mark these mines on the map, and I will bring more people back in the future to develop these mines. "When Zheng Yiguan mentioned this, his eyes lit up.

In this era, gold, silver and copper mines represent money.Zheng Yiguan was born as a pirate and has a natural passion for money.

"Is that true? There is an Iwami Silver Mine here in Japan, and this Iwami Silver Mine produces a lot of silver every year. If you add the mines in the Americas, you can get a lot of silver without doing anything all year round. "Hong Chengchou's eyes lit up.

There is no one in this world who doesn't like money. Although the money has little to do with Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou is still happy.

"I have stayed here before in the country of Wa, and I know about Iwami Yinshan. Let me tell you this, according to my exploration, this Iwami Yinshan is not ranked in the Americas at all." Zheng Yiguan Said with a look of disdain.

When Hong Chengchou heard this, he became excited, "There are so many? Then did you send people to guard these mines? Now you have brought so many people back, what should you do if they are coveted by outsiders?"

"Hehe!" Zheng Yiguan sneered, "That's up to them. If they dare to covet those mines, I will make them regret coming to this world."

The weapon in Zheng Yiguan's hands was so powerful that he didn't pay attention to those people at all.

The two chatted like this until the middle of the night.

When Hong Chengchou came out from Zheng Yiguan's place, he asked someone to arrange for a few Japanese women to go there.

Hong Chengchou is also a man, so he naturally knows what Zheng Yiguan wants to do most now.

In addition to Hong Chengchou, Zheng Yiguan's subordinates also had a carnival in Edo Castle.

The smell of hormones is constantly wafting in Edo Castle.

The sun rose from the horizon, and it was not until noon that Zheng Yiguan opened his sleepy eyes.

Last night, Zheng Yiguan tossed and tossed until the early hours of the morning.

After washing up, Zheng Yiguan walked out of the house and came to the study.

What Zheng Yiguan has to do is to write a memorial and send it to Xuanzhen.

Zheng Yiguan plans to leave the day after tomorrow, so this memorial must be written in advance.

After Zheng Yiguan finished writing the memorial, he came to the governor's office.

The Governor's Yamen is not far from Zheng Yiguan's residence, so Zheng Yiguan didn't have to search hard.

After Zheng Yiguan handed over the memorial to Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou asked people to send Zheng Yiguan's memorial and the memorial he wrote to Xuanzhen.

As the governor of the Wa Kingdom, Hong Chengchou was in charge of the affairs of the Wa Kingdom. Although Zheng Yiguan was not in his charge, he had to report the matter.

Zheng Yiguan took a few entourages around in Edo City. He looked at the Edo City that has changed a lot, and he was deeply moved.

At that time, Zheng Yiguan made his fortune from the Wa country. At that time, the Tokugawa family in Edo city was like a mountain, and he couldn't breathe.

Unexpectedly, it has only been a long time, and the Tokugawa family is like a rat, missing.

During the time when Zheng Yiguan was wandering around, the Japanese women lying on Zheng Yiguan's bed also got dressed and hurried out of the house.

They had smiles on their faces as they walked outside.

It must be a surprise for people who don't know the truth.However, for these Japanese women, this is great luck.

Why do you say excited?Because this is the fastest way for them to improve their status.

With the expansion of Zhao Wen's influence in Japan, the old forces of the Tokugawa family quickly collapsed.

During this period, more and more people from the mainland came to Japan.Because of the victory in the war, the status of the people in the interior in the Wa country is getting higher and higher.

The local Japanese people have the lowest status due to various reasons.

In today's Wa country, the highest status is from the interior.The second is the wild samurai Sakata Arii who surrendered to Zhao Wen, and those who surrendered to the Japanese people. As for the lowest status, those Japanese who were captured by Hong Chengchou.

For this reason, the people of the Wa country at the bottom desperately wanted to climb up.

When the Tokugawa family ruled, there were no major wars in the country of Wa, and for various reasons, the way to climb up was completely blocked.

These Japanese people can't see the channels for promotion, so they completely give up and don't think about it anymore.

But now, there is a way to rise, how can these Japanese people deal with it calmly?
Now that the war continues, these Japanese people also see the hope of rising.As long as you make contributions, you can hope to rise.

Therefore, in the place occupied by Hong Chengchou, almost all the people of the Japanese country try their best to climb up.

Although the men of the Wa Kingdom are not tall, they have a lot of strength and can serve as soldiers or work.Although it is dangerous and tiring, it can also be promoted.

Among the various ways to ascend, the fastest and safest is to conceive the children of the people in the mainland.

As long as she conceives a child of an inland commoner, the woman who conceives a child of an inland commoner will be more expensive than the mother, and she will quickly get rid of the status of "untouchable".

For this reason, when women in Edo City see people from the mainland, it is like seeing a golden pastry.

Even those who are married are no exception, even their husbands will encourage them to do so.

Of course Hong Chengchou knew about these things, and to a certain extent, this was deliberately promoted by Hong Chengchou.

Although Hong Chengchou's reputation in history is not good, he is a fine man.He knows what method is the best and safest way to solve the Japanese problem.

The key is that this method is not unprecedented in history, and there are countless examples of this kind in history.

Didn't the Xianbei people who ruled the world back then just disappear without a trace?
For this reason, these Japanese women who had served Zheng Yiguan did not feel ashamed, and even felt honored.

They stroked their bellies and walked out of Zheng Yiguan's house with smiling faces.

In addition to the smiling faces of the women serving Zheng Yiguan, even those women serving Zheng Yiguan's subordinates are also smiling.

In today's Wa country, many women of the Wa country are very keen on this matter. They don't understand the righteousness of the country and the feelings of the country.As long as they can live a good life, they don't care so much.

The transformation of the Wa country is silent. After 200 years, when the newborns cover the entire Wa country, will they still think that they are from the Wa country?

This method implemented by Hong Chengchou is a method of digging people's ancestral graves, but these people in the Wa country have no way to refuse.

Of course, Zhao Wen, who was far away in Xuanzhen, knew all this, and Zhao Wen also very much agreed with Hong Chengchou's method.
