Daming: My brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 383 When the Ming Dynasty rose, the foreign barbarians were terrified!
"The crime of deceiving the king!"

Zhang Gui replied, and said: "You have colluded with the rebels of the Ming Dynasty, harmed Lingnan, and attempted to overthrow the court of the Ming Dynasty; you also rented Haojing privately from the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi without permission from the central court of the Ming Dynasty. It belongs to the crime of deceiving the emperor. Therefore, you, the governor, and the officials under your name will have to be punished by the Ming Dynasty, and your soldiers and hired workers will also be designated as slaves, exiled outside the customs, and serve my Daming for 100 years! "

After speaking, Zhang Gui said again: "You can choose to resist, but the premise is that you can beat the guns in our hands."

Luo Lang also widened his eyes suddenly, and roared at Zhang Gui: "You are devils! A group of hateful devils!"

Zhang Gui smiled lightly: "You shouldn't face this Grand Master with this attitude, it's not good for you."

When Luo Lang also heard Zhang Gui's words, he was immediately discouraged. He hung his head and couldn't say anything. After a while, he said, "Can you forgive us once, even if you let us be your dogs?"

"Being my Da Ming's dog also requires qualifications, not everyone can be my Da Ming's dog."

Zhang Gui replied.

Next, Luo Lang and these foreign barbarians were all escorted onto the boat, waiting to be dealt with or directly assigned to the outside of the pass to serve as slaves to the Han people.

As for all facilities and administrative, medical and educational institutions in Haojing, they were taken over by the Ming court.

"The trade in Haojing still needs to continue, and a circular has been issued to all countries and states to allow them to continue to come to Haojing to participate in trade activities, including the small French country (Portugal)."

After Zhang Gui took over Haojing, he issued a new order, expressing that he would continue to welcome all countries to trade here in Haojing, and also specially set up a new city ship department here, and Xu Renlong, who was inspected by Guangdong, was also the city ship department. Promote and manage the internal and external affairs of Haojing.

At this moment, Liu Zongmin came to report to Zhang Gui that five Dutch armed merchant ships had come to Haojing, but they turned back before they arrived at Hong Kong.

After hearing this, Zhang Gui hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and come back!"

According to the original history, the ocean of this era belongs to the Dutch.

The small country of the Netherlands rose in this era, known as the sea coachman, with a large number of merchant ships, and became the new overlord in global trade.

Therefore, during this period of history, the Dutch also repeatedly attacked Haojing, trying to take away this important trading place from Portugal.

It's just that the Portuguese also attach great importance to Hao Jing, and they have been very tenacious in guarding it.

Of course, the strength of the Dutch to attack Haojing is still far behind that of Daming.

Therefore, the Portuguese in Haojing could withstand the attack of the Dutch, but they could not fight against Ming.

The five armed merchant ships from the Netherlands originally came this time in the name of trading with the intention of capturing Hao Jing.

But what they didn't expect was that as soon as they came near Haojing, they found a large number of Ming army warships gathered here. The scene was like a water snake strayed into a pile of crocodiles, and the five armed merchant ships in the Netherlands were so frightened that they were about to kill them on the spot. Back to India.

"We paid taxes, we paid!"

However, what the five Dutch merchant ships did not expect was that the warships of the Ming army also spotted them and stopped them with faster ships, and because of this, the leader of the five Dutch merchant ships, General Cohen, rushed to meet with them. Their Ming army admiral Huang Binqing handed over their tax payment vouchers, wanting to prove that they came here legally.

After Daming took control of Batavia City, Xichang established customs in Batavia City long ago, requiring passing merchant ships to pay customs duties. Not to mention the confiscation of all the money for the goods, and once they are robbed by pirates, they will not uphold justice for them.

By doing so, the West Factory is beginning to realize Zhang Guizai's first proposal for Tianqi to set up the West Factory and to collect taxes from all over the world.

Although the Dutch city of Batavia built by themselves was occupied and slaughtered, they still had to accept this rule and obediently paid the customs duties before entering Nanyang.

After all, for the Dutch in Xiyi, they cannot do without Ming's trade.

Who let Spain, Portugal and other Western countries snatch a lot of gold and silver back home after they discovered the American continent and started global trade, which made the whole of Europe very rich, and the demand for exquisite goods was very high.

And it is naturally Daming that can provide these exquisite products.

After all, Daming is the representative of productivity in this era, and there are many exquisite handicrafts that can be exported.

Therefore, even if the Dutch refused to trade with Daming, they would transport goods from Daming, trade them back to Europe, and exchange for profits.

Even if Da Ming occupied his Batavia city and slaughtered their people, it would not affect their desire to come to Da Ming to make a fortune.

This is also a place where Daming can be unscrupulous now.

As long as there are foreigners who still want to rely on him to make money, then he can do whatever he wants.

So the enemy that really hinders Ming Dynasty is still inside.

As long as the elites of the Ming Dynasty give up trying to suppress their own Han people to obtain wealth, and stop the country from plundering foreign barbarians to feed back the domestic people, don’t just think about maximizing their own interests, or even collude with and kidnap foreign barbarians The imperial court kidnapped the king to further squeeze its own Han people, and it would not cause hundreds of millions of Han people to end up as garbage but be ruled by less than 200 Manchus for more than [-] years.

The point is, as long as a little attention is paid to the interests of the country and the rights of compatriots, the strength shown by the Ming Dynasty is enough to crush the so-called rise of the Western Yi powers in this era.

For example, now, Daming only talked a little bit about the supremacy of the interests of the nation and the country, and only proposed that the Han people should be above the barbarians, and did not mention that everyone within the Han people is equal, nor did they mention that the interests of the Han people should be supremacy, and they have already exploded with great strength.

The large number of warships produced by the national power has overwhelmed the Dutch, and in terms of soft power, it has forced them to do business obediently even if they are slaughtered.

In the original history, because the Ming court did not do this, and was even deliberately prevented by its own bureaucracy from distributing global interests, all the benefits brought by global trade to Ming were put into the private pockets of local wealthy families and used by local wealthy families. Build all kinds of gorgeous gardens and raise a large number of beautiful wives and concubines, but the court has always been short of money, and the people have also been short of money.

Because of this, there were particularly many private gardens in the Ming Dynasty, and all the scholar-bureaucrats repaired gardens and built mountains with stones.

But now, all the money for building private gardens has been turned into warships, which naturally shows terrible military strength.

After Cohen took out the voucher tremblingly, Huang Binqing didn't even look at it, but only ordered the interpreter beside him: "Tell him, our supervisor wants to see him!"

So, not long after, the Dutch like Cohen saw Zhang Gui in Haojing, knelt down in front of Zhang Gui honestly, and explained again: "We are here for trade, really only for trade, there is absolutely no other mind. We have proof of tax payment.”

Therefore, Zhang Gui looked at the certificate and said: "My Ming Dynasty welcomes merchant ships to trade. As long as you abide by the rules, my Ming Dynasty will not make things difficult for you, and will even provide you with protection."

After speaking, Zhang Gui asked, "What business do you plan to come to Haojing for?"

After hearing this, Cohen hurriedly replied: "Buy some silk, tea, and porcelain to go to Japan."

Because of Iwami Yinshan, Japan is also very rich now, and has a great demand for Ming's products.

Therefore, the Dutch merchant ships will basically import a large amount of goods from Ming Dynasty in the Haojing area and sell them in Japan, and then use the money earned in Japan to return to Haojing to import a large amount of goods from Ming Dynasty, and then sell them back to Europe. Run two trades in a year and make money twice.

Zhang Gui also asked, "Why did you go to Japan?"

This Cohen also shows why.

After Zhang Gui heard this, he couldn't help thinking of something else, but he didn't say it clearly, he just continued to ask, "Are you doing slave trade?"
