Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 818 The Godfather of East Asia ([-]rd watch)
Become the king of Korea in advance? !Li Yan was slightly startled, did Chu Yun intend to support him to replace his father as the king of Koryo?
"Inappropriate, inappropriate, my father is in his prime, the king naturally belongs to my father, how can I rebel and make trouble, this is disrespectful..." Li Yan quickly rejected Chu Yun's proposal.

"You should understand that as a king, your power is far greater than that of a prince. If you become a king, your chances of winning against the civil servants will be greater, and you will be able to change your country according to your own will." Chu Yun tapped lightly Get off the table.

As a native of Koryo who was close to the Kyushu Army, Chu Yun wanted to support Li Yan as the king of Koryo. On the one hand, he wanted to help Li Xuan, and on the other hand, he wanted to control Koryo in a special way.Conquering Nanyang, which was relatively less influenced by Chinese culture, used force directly, but Koryo and Dongying are now submissive. Chu Yun really has no excuse to attack, and now the finances are used for industrial construction. The markets of Korea and Dongying have been destroyed. Open, Chu Yun has enough time to ask them to join in as peaceful a way as possible.

"Although I am very eager to change, this is against the way of father and son. I still hope to impress my father and let him support my ideas." Li Yan said.

"It's not bad for you to think so. But being born in an emperor's family, sometimes you need to learn to protect yourself. Do you understand what I'm talking about?" Chu Yun said to Li Yan meaningfully.

"Understood." Li Yan sighed helplessly.

"As an old acquaintance, I will ask the Far East Trading Company to take more care of the factory you opened. I also hope that you can increase your influence in the East Kingdom by building factories, and then gain the support of some merchants and citizens. Yu Cheng, will Bring us our return gift." Chu Yun did not insist on immediately supporting Li Yi to ascend the throne of Koryo.

As long as Japan is taken down, there will be only one country of Korea left in East Asia, and it will be a matter of time before it is incorporated into the territory.In the future, the territory will be the sea, and there will be no more territorial disputes.

Yu Cheng also took out the gift box he had prepared long ago, and inside lay an exquisite mechanical pocket watch with a golden outline, which was extremely textured.

Li Yan felt as if he had found a treasure. He had seen a pocket watch in the Academy of Sciences before. This metallic industrial product contained elements of industrial technology.In his opinion, a pocket watch is much more precious than a few top-quality Korean red ginseng.

"Thank you, Commander!" Li Yan said quickly.

"Reciprocity is a gift." Chu Yun was already very happy when he saw that Li Yan got a pocket watch, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly. The industrial country and the agricultural country give each other gifts. The industrial country can produce various industrial products, but the agricultural country can only produce special products such as ginseng. It is a treasure of heaven and earth.

Li Yan and Chu Yun complained about their bitterness, mainly because they wanted to gain Chu Yun's support.In order to dig deeper into the Korean market, Chu Yun was naturally willing to help Li Yi build a factory.To be honest, if it wasn't for Li Yi leading some Koryo people to build along the coast, Chu Yun might not necessarily want a poor and white Koryo country.

After Li Xuan left, Chu Yun would summon two envoys from Dongying Kingdom.

"I have a headache, why do I seem to be the godfather of East Asia? I have to intervene in the affairs of Korea and Dongying..." Chu Yun felt that both Korea and Dongying depended on him after seeing Yu Cheng send Li Yi down. Although the expression on his face was good, it made him worry a little bit.Just after listening to the reports from the Sixth Ministry and other departments, before Chu Yun had time to rest, the three envoys arrived soon.

At present, Chu Yun is focusing on the construction of the Central Plains, and then there are relatively backward areas such as Southeast Asia and the Western Regions to establish order. The affairs of Japan and Korea can only be ranked third.

What Chu Yun first received was not the envoys of the shogunate, but the envoys of the Shimadzu family.

"It's okay for the Kyushu Army to rank Koryo Bangzi ahead of us, but now even the Shimadzu family is ahead of us! Our shogunate is the representative of Japan, not the Shimadzu family!"

"It is a contempt for our shogunate to rank the Shimadzu family ahead of us!"

The shogunate envoys were waiting outside Chu Yun's mansion. When they saw the Koryo envoys coming out, they were not supposed to enter, but the Shimadzu's envoys. They couldn't help being angry.

The shogunate is the official regime in Japan, and the Shimadzu family is just a daimyo of the separatist regime!Putting the Shimadzu family's envoys ahead of the shogunate's envoys is simply a humiliation to the shogunate!
Sakai Tadakatsu witnessed Shimadzu Mitsuhisa leading people in, and what he thought about was not why the Shimadzu family envoys lined up ahead of them to meet Chu Yun, but what the Shimadzu family's intentions were when they came to Chu Yun.The Shimadzu family is one of the leaders of the rebel army.

"Sakai-kun, what kind of mission do you think Mitsuhisa Shimadzu brought to China?" Aoyama Yukunari asked Sakai Tadakatsu.

"It's hard to say. I personally guess that it is very likely that the rebel army was under the blow of our shogunate and began to lose their support, so they wanted to ask the Kyushu Army for help." Sakai Tadakatsu said.

"If it is as you think, our shogunate may face a lot of pressure. The Kyushu Army, the rebel army, and the Huaxia Society are in danger." Aoyama Xingcheng said.

After Chu Yun met Li Yan, he also met Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, the current head of the Shimadzu family.Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, like Li Yan, knew Chu Yun a few years ago.However, Li Xuan has more respect for Chu Yun than Shimadzu Mitsuhisa.

Chu Yun's attitude towards the Shimadzu family is more complicated.The Shimadzu family was the spokesperson of Chu Yun in the Dongying market before. Later, the Shimadzu family grew stronger because they monopolized the overseas trade of Dongying.Then the Kyushu army turned to support the shogunate to repel the allied forces.In order to prevent the shogunate from completely defeating the Allied Forces, the Kyushu Army did not stop trading with the Shimadzu family while supporting the shogunate.

Chu Yun's strategy of not allowing either the shogunate or the allied forces of the fallen shogunate to make a big deal was regarded by the Shimadzu family as a "check and balance" strategy for the Kyushu Army.

"Shimadzu Mitsuhisa, your Shimadzu family betrayed me once, what are you looking for this time?" Chu Yun sat on the main seat and asked coldly.

Hearing what Chu Yun said, Shimadzu Mitsuhisa was sweating all over his back. It seemed that Chu Yun still cared about the downfall of their Shimadzu family organization.

"Great military lord, our Shimadzu family thought that fighting against the shogunate was only an internal matter of our Japan, and we are deeply sorry for the arbitrarily launched movement to collapse the curtain a few years ago." Mitsuhisa Shimadzu said respectfully.

"Then you mean I did something wrong?" Chu Yun asked.

"No... our Shimadzu family acted without authorization and affected the trade between Huaxia and Dongying..." Mitsuhisa Shimadzu was afraid that Chu Yun would be angry, so he said quickly, although it seemed that the collapse was indeed an internal matter of Dongpu...
