Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1330 The crown landed

   For gamblers.

  When they have lost nothing, they will not hesitate to use all means in an attempt to earn back with interest.

  Sir Andres now has the same mentality.

  The people in the Governor's Mansion were silent.

   Regarding Sir Andres's'suggestion', the first thing they felt was a biting chill.

  But... the situation is so bad that it cannot be worsened, what could be worse than it is now.

   Borrowing, continue... as long as you persevere, then...you can see the moon and the moon.

   Bulbs that have dropped slightly, the price is still seesawing, occasionally falling slightly, and occasionally rising slightly.

  But the countless dumping is still going on.

  Andres began to doubt life a little bit.

  Because...he couldn't understand why there are so many bulbs in this world.

   Where did these bulbs come from?

  The Spanish navy found out that a merchant ship under the banner of the Northern Province bypassed Portugal and headed for North Africa.

  But when the navy was planning to ambush, they discovered Ming's fleet. When these fleets that were responding here appeared, they immediately aroused the vigilance of the Spanish fleet.

  They didn't dare to approach rashly, but when they called the main fleet, those ships had already gone away.

Once a ship goes out to sea, in this era without radar and satellites, trying to find its trace is nothing more than looking for a needle in a haystack, unless the other party follows the established sea route... Moreover, even if it is an ambush, it is extremely difficult, After all, it is impossible for the entire Navy of the Kingdom of Spain to attack at any time, and the cost is too high.

  The national treasury itself is already stretched to the point where it cannot be added, and it is stretched.

  Is this a conspiracy by the Ming people?

   Sir Andres belatedly.

   At this time, it is the fourth day.

  Dumping continues.

  The reserve fund is almost empty, and even...they owe a lot of loans to merchants.

  But...the bulbs are still endless, and they continue to sell.

   It's over.

   Sir Andres's heart was completely chilled.

  When an official came to report to the Governor's Mansion, and there were three more warehouses that were dumping crazily, the Governor's Mansion fell into a deathly silence.

  Sir Andres's face was as pale as paper: "How much more can you buy?"

   "Your Excellency, the reserve fund is gone, we... have been sucked dry."

   "Your Excellency..." Someone rushed in and said, "The news has leaked."

  The news leaked out...

  Sir Andreas shuddered.

  News... How could it be leaked at this time, impartially.

  The only possibility is that... this is what his opponent spreads.

   "Clarify the message immediately."

  Andres gave the order decisively.

   But later, his face was sallow.

Clarify the news... The reserve fund has been exhausted, that is to say, the countries have united and almost emptied the treasury, and even the gold and silver that was borrowed at the expense of borrowing have been completely emptied, and there is not a single copper plate left. At this time, what area to clarify information.

  Sir Andres slumped down on the chair, staring blankly at the void.

   "Your Excellency..." Terrible news came one after another.

   "Words have spread, and now everyone, is peddling their bulbs, everywhere, the market has been chaotic, the crowds are overwhelming..."

   "Your Excellency...Your Excellency..."

  Sir Andres jumped up from his chair: "Arrest those criminals immediately, we failed, then let them be buried with them, and send our soldiers...soldiers!"

  The governor accepted the order with a ashamed face.

  The fall of Europe is inevitable.

  He could no longer imagine what would happen when the finances of all countries were looted and the wealth of all classes disappeared overnight.

  Europe, which has enjoyed decades of colonial dividends, is now... standing on a cliff.

   And now... before being destroyed, he must lead the soldiers to arrest all those damned people.

But…

   Chaos is everywhere in the streets.

   Everywhere there are people out on the street with their own bulbs, panicking enough to sell them to passers-by.

  Early in the morning, the price of the bulb was still more than twenty gold coins.

   But an hour later, when the news spread, the bulb was actually worthless.

   Not even a single copper plate can be exchanged.

Because everyone is selling their bulbs, the crazy people even blocked the way of the governor and hundreds of soldiers, they took the bulbs, bowed their bodies, begging: "Sir, do me a favor, three Gold coins, my bulbs, are the best in the world..."

   "Go away!" the governor thought to himself, I have more bulbs, do you want a gold coin?

   Soon, the soldiers behind him began to hesitate.

   There's a guy, slipping away.

  Seeing such a horrible scene on the street, he thought he would use his life savings to exchange bulbs, hoping to appreciate in value.

  As soon as the soldier left, the other soldiers became even more disturbed.

  In the distance, angry people began to smash the bulb on the ground. The bulb slammed to the ground and broke in two, and a strong smell of garlic came out.

  The smell of garlic is everywhere.

  People saw the soldiers, and someone shouted angrily: "It's them, it's them..."

   Angry people don't care who ransacked themselves.

  Because those who rob themselves may be far away. But when you go out and turn left, you can always find the governor.

   People who were once humble have become mad in despair.

  The feeling of everything being wiped out overnight is enough to turn any gentle person into a robber.

  In the beginning, they were throwing bulbs at soldiers.

   Angry soldiers try to fight back.

  But then, there are more and more people like this.

  When the governor took the soldiers to find several warehouses with difficulty, and found that there were still unsold bulbs in the warehouse, the place was already empty.

  They had a difficult start and hunted down several merchants who coordinated the shipment.

  The merchants looked at them tremblingly, and told the governor that he was in contact with a British merchant from York, and the British merchant just entrusted them to sell.

   After spending half a day finding York's trace, the British businessman honestly confessed that he was employed by a Portuguese.

  As for the Portuguese, he has long since disappeared.

   Soldiers blocked the port.

  There have been no boats coming in and out here.

  Until someone told them that there was an island overseas that had been rented out and many suspicious people came in and out, so the governor arrived at the island with his sailors.

  In the island, everything is as usual, but some facilities have been built, but... still empty.

   It is said that as early as two days ago, the people here got on the boat and disappeared.

  A small fleet from the Northern Province is ready to go to bring these **** liars to justice.

  Sir Andres issued such an order, and on the other hand, a messenger brought worse news. The fleet of the Northern Province attacked the port, and they declared a rebellion.

  The reason is simple, the vast majority of officers and soldiers have gone bankrupt, and they have expected that Spain can no longer afford their salaries.

   Now there is chaos everywhere, people are precarious, and resentment and resentment have been bred.

  The fleet that was originally ordered to go to sea has long understood that the sea is vast, and they simply chased those businessmen, so the angry officers and soldiers decided to do something.

  They hoisted the flag representing the Netherlands and rushed into the port. Instead of being resisted, they were quickly welcomed by countless people.

  People roared angrily, and countless people followed the sailors, and quickly raised a new flag in the city hall, and announced that the Northern Province would no longer accept the brutal Spanish royal rule.

  The governor had been killed, and a trembling nobleman was embraced by the soldiers and put on a crown.

  As for Sir Andres... he held a quill in his hand, and looked at the messenger in astonishment.

  The messenger said: "Your Excellency, we should immediately go back to Spain via France. This place has been surrounded by anger, and there are rebels everywhere. They have lost their minds."

  Andres said: "What about the other guests?"

   "They have all gone. We should go south and enter France through Lorraine, because the northern provinces of France also have a tendency to riot. Many people claim to kill the king and hang the merchants."

  Andres looked pained: "These barbarians!"

   In fact, no one suffered more than Sir Andrés. On the one hand, the mob was looking for him, he was against him, and there were calls everywhere to hang him. But...even if he returns to Spain, so what, he will become a scapegoat and is also hated by the royal family.

  People will only blame him for all mistakes.

   But in fact, from the moment he was ordered to come to Northern Province, he had no choice.

   "Fate..." He sighed.

   Then straightened the white hood on his head, and stood upright in a well-dressed manner: "This is just the beginning, not the end."

He said to his entourage: "Soon, this place will be in a mess, there will be wars everywhere, the crown will fall to the ground, countless castles will lose their masters, and all property will be sold at a low price. With gold and silver coins, you will become the master of this place. I firmly believe that those damned people will not run away, and they will come back in a different way in a short time. Maybe next time, they will call themselves French or French. An Englishman, or a Venetian, whoever they are, will easily pick up the fallen crown...but..."

Sir Andres closed his eyes in pain: "No one will remember that this group of people used to be eloquent liars and robbers who stole astonishing wealth. People will only remember that he landed on land with a huge amount of wealth, Be a great benefactor to many."
