Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 918 Received the title of Wandan King

At the beginning of China's modern history, since the tablet war, the Europeans squeezed a large amount of China's wealth through the export of tablets, and China was reduced to a semi-colonial country due to tablet compression. It is no exaggeration to describe it as a ruined country.

Now the opportunity has come, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, there is nothing to say, shameless Europeans, Europeans who will do everything for capital accumulation, have you ever imagined that one day, karma will reincarnate and retribution will be unhappy?
Although the use of compressed tablets can be traced back to 3000 BC, it is still not used by humans on a large scale. This is a good opportunity. It seems that the Europeans do not know how powerful this thing is.

Liu Hongjian hadn't thought about earning money by pressing tablets. After all, he had many ways to earn money. As long as the technology kept rolling, Daming could round and flatten the Europas at any time.

There are two ways to ensure technological leadership, one is to accelerate the technological research and development of one's own country, and the other is to hinder the technological research and development of hostile countries.

Liu Hongjian would naturally urge the former, but as for the latter... hehe, tablet compression is a blow to dimensionality reduction.

Liu Hongjian intends to package this product as a high-end product that only the aristocrats can enjoy. He wants to paralyze the aristocracy as much as possible by pressing tablets, and slowly slow down or even stagnate the superstructure of a country.

It’s best to upgrade the tablet to a newer version, otherwise people in Europe who are not black and white will know this thing, so it’s not easy to fool.

However, further processing and purification seems to be a bit difficult, so is it possible to change the color of this thing, such as black into white?yellow?

Hmm... At worst, it must be made into cigarettes. Even if the papermaking technology is not up to par, it must be made into cigars. Aren't the aristocracy rich?Cigarette pots are too cheap, they must be disposable.

Yes, cigars!What a great idea to make it a must-have for high-end people!
Sitting on the throne of the governor's mansion, Liu Hongjian squinted his eyes and fell into obsession, which frightened the bully stick beside him, thinking what's wrong with the master?
Just now he was furious, wishing to send that tablet into the [-]th hell, but now he is holding a piece of tablet and giggling, maybe he lost his mind and went crazy?

"Master, master?" Niu Dazhuan patted Liu Hongjian's shoulder lightly and said.

"Huh?" Liu Hongjian came back to reality after a trance, and he glanced at Niu Dazhuai as a condemnation of this guy for disturbing his dream.

"That prince from Wandan wants to see you! Just wait outside!" Niu Da Bangchui didn't care, pointing outside.

The royal palace of Banten Kingdom has long been abandoned, and was forgotten by the Dutch in the south of the city. The palace was not big and half of it was demolished, but the people of Banten did not dislike it at all. After getting Liu Hongjian's permission, Harold killed everyone immediately. So he took his men to the palace to clean up.

Harold didn't mind that there were so many Ming troops in the city at all. On the contrary, he believed that the Ming troops could still provide security for them. After all, the guards in his hand were not enough.

"Let them in!" Liu Hongjian asked his subordinates to take away the tablets on the table, and waved his hands.

At least five or six Wandan people in black official uniforms surrounded Harold and entered the Governor's Mansion. Liu Hongjian sat in the main seat, and on both sides were Qi Yuangong, Zheng Sen, Lin He and others.

After Harold and others entered, they saluted Liu Hongjian, looked around and sat at Lin He's lower seat, while the rest of the subordinates stood behind Harold knowingly.

"My lord, the Dutch have all been killed. On behalf of more than 300 million people in Banten, I would like to thank Daming again for his help." Harold stood up and bowed to thank him.

Montell, as an interpreter, quickly got up and saluted and repeated Harold's words.

"It's just a little effort, I don't know why His Majesty Harold is here?" Liu Hongjian waved his hand to signal Harold to sit down and talk.

Harold seemed a little embarrassed when he heard the words and didn't say a word. Montel helped Harold to sit down, walked to Liu Hongjian and said:

"My lord, it's like this. The last king of Banten Kingdom left in anger 20 years ago. His Royal Highness Harold swore at that time that he would slaughter all the guinea pigs to avenge the former king and the oppressed Banten people. , otherwise he will not be crowned for life.

Now that the Dutch invaders have fallen, the people of Banten cannot live without a king. These subjects hope that His Royal Highness Harold will inherit the throne as soon as possible. "Montel whispered to Liu Hongjian.

"Oh, this is a good thing! Hasn't your palace been cleaned up? But you still need my king's help?" Liu Hongjian still thought it was something, because His Excellency the Crown Prince couldn't wait to become a king.

"Return to the lord, Your Highness Harold would like to invite you to preside over the ceremony!" Montel said solemnly.

It is an extremely honorable thing to be crowned a king, and it must be done by a person who is highly respected and in charge of power. Wandan Kingdom is also an independent country, so it is even more important in this respect.

Letting Liu Hongjian preside over this matter must be to express his sincerity to the suzerain country. In fact, the appointment of the king of the subordinate country must be approved by the suzerain country before the final conclusion can be made.

"This is a trivial matter, the king has agreed, but when do you plan to hold it?" Liu Hongjian said casually.

The king of the subordinate country belongs to the county king level in the Daming title system, and his status is below the emperor and prince. To be more precise, in addition to the emperor in the Huaxia title system, it is king, duke, marquis, uncle, etc.

Later, in order to distinguish the status, the first level of king was divided into two levels, that is, one-word king and two-word king. King Yan and King Qin belonged to the first-level nobility, and they were also the highest titles except the emperor.

The King of Joseon and King Wandan belong to the second level, but compared to the princes and county kings of Daming, although the kings of Joseon and Wandan are not high in status, their power and territory are stronger than the princes of Daming in the mainland. too much.

From Liu Hongjian's point of view, as a one-word prince with a feudal country, it's no problem to give a county king the whole conferring ceremony.

It's just that Liu Hongjian didn't plan to stay in Batavia any longer, and his destination was not here at all. After dealing with the legacy of the East India Company, he planned to send his troops westward to capture Malacca, which would take about two to three days. time.

"My lord, you can't! The appointment of a prince must be discussed by the cabinet and His Majesty. If this violates the ancestral system, all officials may be criticized!" Qi Yuangong agreed when he heard Liu Hongjian so easily, and quickly got up to remind him.

"This place is tens of thousands of miles away from the capital, and it takes three or four months to go back and forth. You have all seen the situation here. Since King Wandan is a vassal state of our Ming Dynasty, this king will definitely help him stabilize the situation here. The king will write a memorial to explain to the emperor about the matter of the seal, it's nothing serious, let's step back!" Liu Hongjian waved his hand and said.

"But..." Qi Yuangong was still uneasy, he felt that it was very inappropriate for Liu Hongjian to honestly violate the Ming Dynasty's system.

"But bastard, do you know how many islands there are in Nanyang? How many soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can be dispatched abroad? The purpose of my king's opening of the Nanyang sea route is for business!" Liu Hongjian said without doubt.

I really want to colonize the earth is not easy, I don't know how many soldiers will die, and who can stop the national awakening and independence crisis in the future?

Isn't he good at opening up routes to earn money?

Liu Hongjian didn't care about Qi Yuangong's advice at all. He thought that Qi Yuangong wanted to occupy this land, but he didn't realize that he didn't take the so-called ancestral system seriously.

"Let's just leave it at that, I don't have much time, and the ceremony of enshrining will be held in two days!"
