Announcing the spice monopoly! All spice trading is owned by Nanyang Spice Corporation.

The Nanyang Spice Corporation is a joint venture company that controls the production and trade of spices in the area under the jurisdiction of the Southeast Province, and only it has the right to conduct business in spices, and the rest of the people are illegal.

Logically speaking, you can grow it for your own use, but it is illegal to sell it only to the "Nanyang Spice Corporation" and sell it to other people.

The total share capital of this company is 300,000 silver dollars, divided into 1,000 shares, of which 50% are "state-owned", that is, owned by the official of the Southeast Province, 30% owned by His Royal Highness the Consul, 10% subscribed by the upper echelons of the Southeast Province, and 10% used by the Southeast Government for reward.

For example, Governor Chen Tak received 3% of the share capital of the "Nanyang Spice Corporation", while Hong Xiguan received 1% of the share capital, like Miss Chen Yuxue, a key figure in the victory of the war, also had 1% of the share capital, and the latter two belong to the remuneration.

In the process of conquest, Yan Changwu practiced "equal interests", that is, everyone made a fortune together and was happy alone, not as good as everyone.

Ordinary people can get 50 acres of cultivated land for free, and those with good cultivation records can be given 100 acres of land, pay 10% rent, and serve one month of forced labor, and the government will not disturb them again!

The officer corps and the civil service class are richly rewarded for their merits, and they are promoted to knighthood.

And the rulers of the southeast province, the emerging magnates, and big businessmen set up development companies one by one to develop the land, and everyone made a fortune!

It can be said that in the tide of conquest, Yan Changwu took care of the interests of all aspects, and he used the law to protect everyone's interests, for example, if a businessman formed a development company, the magnates also had to respect his interests, unless Yan Changwu wanted to move the businessman, otherwise, the interests of the businessman were guaranteed, because the law protection agency of the southeast government--- the public procuratorate was under Yan Changwu's orders, and to a certain extent, even suppressed the arrogance of the magnates, so as not to resent.

For example, in Ambon, the aborigines became slaves, and all slaves were auctioned, and the highest price was obtained, and the proceeds went to the national treasury and army officers and soldiers, this is the law!

There will be no Chen De saying that these slaves are all owned by him and taken possession, yes, no!

Even the people of the mainland, the Hongmaofan, the Chinese followers, the Koreans and the Annamite people benefited.

The mainland's capital investment in the southeast province, to obtain dividends, the mainland people with hard work, hard work to grow tea, silkworms and porcelain, export abroad, even if only a small head, is better than digging in the soil.

Hongmaofan does business with the southeast province, such as transporting arms, supplies and slaves, and earns a lot of money, and he can't make enough money to give away!

Now there is a big business, "Nanyang Spice Corporation" announced that all export spices will be underwritten by Hongmaofan, and everyone is free to bid!

The southeast province focuses on Southeast Asia, and does not want manpower, transportation power and financial resources to be placed in the distant east-west routes, so it makes profits, and the spices produced are auctioned, and the one with the highest price wins!

Only the Hongmao Fan ships can be exported to the long distance, and the rest of the Chinese ships are allowed to run only the mainland and Southeast Asian routes in the southeast province, which has been hot.

The export of spices is only done according to business, public auction, no private sale, and there is no room for rent-seeking.

As for the Wa, Koreans, and Annamite, they worked for the Chinese, and half of the proceeds went to their government and half to them.

Even so, these incomes outweighed their incomes in their respective countries, and they often ate well, and there was hope that they would join the South-East Province as a subject----- and South-East Province would reach agreements with governments that would not prevent them from naturalization.

Yan Dashao set the ancestral family law, goods are not allowed to be tax-exempt without permission, and if there is no tax-exempt company, his sole proprietorship company must pay taxes!

He was afraid of the profound experience of the Ming Dynasty, which obviously had a large amount of silver entering the mainland from overseas, but the government could not collect taxes.

It is better to have ten thousand taxes than ten thousand pieces without taxes.

In order to revitalize the economy of Southeast Asia, the headquarters and exchange of the Nanyang Spice Corporation are located in Ambon.

The company's big shopkeeper is called "Chen Yichuan", this person is Chen Hebin, the minister of finance of the southeast province, his uncle, Chen Yichuan is the big shopkeeper of the Ruixing silver number in Yuegang, and he has an income of 100,000 silver dollars a year in the silver money business of Chinese and foreign import and export transactions in Yuegang.

However, the business of the Southeast Mansion was more prosperous, and Chen Yichuan went to the Southeast Mansion and became a professional manager, serving the "state-owned assets" of the Southeast Mansion and Yan Da Boss, and taking care of the business.

He said to Chen De: "Development is nothing more than three things: people, money and property, and now our head office has rich financial resources and lacks nothing!" ”

He explained: "We have bought 20,000 slaves! "---- is the aborigines here, and it's so cheap that it only costs a mere five thousand silver dollars!

Uncivilized peoples are very cheap in the "place of origin", and the price can only be more expensive when they are transported to Java City.

It doesn't cost much to raise slaves, after all, you don't have to pay for the work, at most it is a small favor, but the labor of the technicians and overseers is valuable, in order to reduce the expenses, you will hire the Chinese little followers who are the Japanese Annam and the Koreans to work, anyway, they will not be paid equally for equal work, who calls them not their own people!

Prepare to expand your port, build roads, provide water, build forts and camps, and build infrastructure!

Chen Yichuan came up with a good plan and asked Chen De to mobilize the third engineering battalion that came with him to carry out port and road construction.

Tran Duc also has an important job to do, the occupation of the Banda Islands.

The next step is to deal with the two kingdoms of Tidore, Denadi, and Halmahra, which are located in the north of Ambon, as well as some small islands that are clove-producing areas.

"The spice monopoly must be realized!" Chen Yichuan pointed out: "The price of one thing will fall if there is more, we must maintain the price of spices, ensure our profits, and use force if necessary, this is the advantage of having an army!" ”

Chen De understood and nodded frequently, realized the monopoly of spices, mobilized the military and police forces, confiscated the smuggled spices, and at the same time controlled the production of spices produced by various countries, this is the spice war!

……

Chen Yichuan was appointed by the Governor's Office to be in charge of Ambon's infrastructure projects, as well as spice plantations, agriculture, fisheries, etc.

Chen Yichuan is the chief treasurer of a private company, but he can instruct the third engineering battalion of the army, and at the same time mobilize the forces of the government to carry out large-scale construction.

In the grass-roots period of the southeast province, there was a lack of talents and manpower, so two sets of brands and one set of people worked together.

This is a period of great development!

Success is not a fluke, the Chinese in the southeast, the Chinese in the mainland, the Chinese who have been in Nanyang, the Chinese little followers, the red haired fan, the indigenous and even the West Asian people, and the three ethnic groups of the three are working together to fight for China's development of Southeast Asia!
