As the warship returned with 20,000 civilians and prisoners, Zhang Qiang gradually learned about the battle ahead.

He didn't care how the Xinlu Mansion was arranged, he was now receiving Zheng Chenggong's envoy Zheng Keshuang.

The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Zheng Keshuang finally said the purpose of his coming here, "Your Majesty, today Xiaosheng is here for my father to ask Xiaosheng to ask Your Majesty for something, my father hopes to immigrate some Han people from the Huaxia Kingdom to Australia, oh, Australia is still the name given by His Majesty, for which my father is very grateful, so he named it Australia, referred to as Australia, and my father said that Australia is good, it is this vast and sparsely populated place." ”

Of course, Zhang Qiang knew that Australia was vast and sparsely populated, otherwise he would have sent troops to occupy the place, so what about Zheng Chenggong's turn to be an old pirate?

The reason why he fooled him away was because he wanted to annex the treasure island and wanted one less enemy, if Zheng Chenggong was here, he needed to maintain the peace of the entire sea frontier, it was impossible, although the Huaxia army was strong, he couldn't play the old fox Zheng Chenggong.

"Where do you have a population now, and what is the composition?" Zhang Qiang interrupted Zheng Keshuang's words and asked.

Zheng Keshuang is a little unhappy, he is the prince favored by his father in the family, since Zhang Qiang became the king in the Huaxia Kingdom, Zheng Chenggong has long been called the king overseas, he is the real king, is the king of Emperor Longwu, Zhang Qiang is actually just a marquis in Longwu, and it is not yet time to be called the king, but he has already created such a big foundation, called the emperor, according to the wishes of the people now, it is not an exaggeration.

But Zhang Qiang didn't want to be the emperor when he didn't completely unify the original Ming territory.

He is still a king, and the people below don't dare to be too presumptuous, otherwise these people at the bottom will all want to be kings, and they can't stand their hard work if they don't seal a few kings of the opposite sex.

Zhang Qiang didn't want the people below to have no hope and no goal, and the founding generals of the dynasties that had succeeded in the final rebellion once the master became emperor, they wanted to enjoy it with peace of mind, so they created a lot of second generations of officials and rich second generations, and then began to go downhill.

We must maintain the blood and motivation of the people who follow us, otherwise these people may have a sense of slackness after settling down, and then some people begin to think, whether they can be called kings, and some people think about rebellion, so the founding emperors of the past dynasties began to kill heroes, if they don't kill, they can't do it, and the country they have laid down is about to face collapse.

Zheng Keshuang was unhappy, Zhang Qiang saw it in his eyes, and he was very contemptuous in his heart, you are the son of a pirate who was beaten by Lao Tzu and fled, what do you think? Dare to look at Lao Tzu, isn't this looking for a fight?

In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless.

However, at this time, his cultivation is still very high, after all, he has been a prince for so long, and he is not so easy to get angry or emotional.

Zheng Keshuang finally broke free from his emotions and endured it: "Your Majesty, at present, our Han population has reached one million, and there are nearly 500,000 Nanyang natives, but Australia is too huge, and some of the Southeast Asian natives you sold us last time are still not enough for nearly 200,000 people, they are too lazy, my father heard that you attacked Japan, he stayed in Japan, and knows that the Japanese have always followed our Han Dynasty, and they themselves are also very hard-working and know how to endure, The adaptation is much stronger than that of the indigenous people of Southeast Asia. ”

Zhang Qiang nodded, Zheng Chenggong is scheming, he is looking for the right point, he knows that he is promoting sinicization, but the Japanese have a high degree of sinicization, but it is not easy to assimilate, so he wants to ask for someone from here.

"Did your father mean that the natives of Southeast Asia don't want it?" Zhang Qiang asked.

The indigenous people of Southeast Asia always have such and such problems, with Zhang Qiang withdrawing some of the Han people from where, where the population advantage of the indigenous people in Southeast Asia is still quite large, so Zhang Qiang implemented a policy to immigrate some of the indigenous people in Southeast Asia with a high degree of sinicization from where they immigrated back to the core area, and later found that some of the people were still a little difficult to naturalize, so they lost part of them to Feng Quan of Xinlu Mansion, so that they could occupy the territory of the Japanese here, improve the advantage of the Han people in power here, and weaken the population advantage of the Japanese.

Where did the third prince lose the most, reaching more than 400,000 people.

"Yes, Australia is so big, we have developed five cities, each city has 200,000 Han Chinese, 50,000 Southeast Asians, 10,000 immigrants from Japan to my father's old department. However, it is still not possible to feed the population, where there is not much arable land, so we need to develop more arable land, we need to continue to open up the city, my father has already demarcated five cities, and our brothers each have a city, and now we need at least a million people to fill the place, so my father asked us to go back to our hometown to see if we can immigrate some Han people. ”

Zhang Qiang was silent, Zheng Keshuang meant Han people, mainly Han people, it seems that Zheng Chenggong also hopes that Australia is dominated by Han people, but the land is vast and sparsely populated, and some Southeast Asian natives need to be treated as slaves, and the Japanese are to be treated as laborers.

With these slaves and Japanese labor to feed two million Han Chinese, then the population needed is not a small amount.

"I promise you, what good do I have, or how do you get so many people from us?" Zhang Qiang asked.

Zheng Keshuang quickly replied: "Of course, you can't let the Huaxia Kingdom give it to people in vain, right?" Zheng Keshuang smiled and turned to the topic, they made a profit, of course they were happy, "That's the case, my father meant, we pay the money," Zhang Qiang rolled his eyes and looked at him, the silver stored in the treasury of the Huaxia Kingdom is already 200 million taels, relying on these 200 million taels of silver, the Huaxia Kingdom can issue one billion Huaxia yuan, not to mention the gold, the gold has reached 10 million taels, which Zhang Qiang has scavenged for so many years.

Fighting pirates, digging pirates' dens, beating Zheng Chenggong, and putting all Zheng Chenggong's wealth on the treasure island in one pot, at least tens of millions of taels of silver, nearly one million taels of gold, it can be said that one-twentieth of Zhang Qiang's treasury was contributed by Zheng Chenggong, and there was also a fight against Longwu Nanming, but Longwu Nanming is a poor country, and the money was scavenged from those landlords and old wealth, and at least one-twentieth of the weight.

Later, he destroyed the Lu Kingdom, the Yongli Ming Dynasty, the Li Dingguo of Yunnan, the Qiongzhou Island, the small country of Annam, the small country of Laos, the small country of Burma, and the warlords and vassal kings who fought the Qing Dynasty, and looted a lot of gold and silver treasures.

These gold and silver treasures, the Huaxia Kingdom is now enough to issue 10 billion Huaxia Yuan, but there are too many banknotes that cannot be issued, otherwise it will cause the depreciation of the banknotes, so now Huaxia Yuan has only issued about 300 million, which is enough for the Huaxia Kingdom to turnover.

Zheng Keshuang seemed to see through Zhang Qiang's thoughts, and continued with a smile: "My father is going to buy some warships and warships of the Huaxia Army, compared to us, the warships and warships of the Huaxia Army are very tall and advanced, my father has already purchased three hundred tons and one hundred and eighty tons of warships from the Huaxia Kingdom, and now my father wants to buy some six-hundred-ton warships, eight-hundred-ton warships, of course, it would be better if he could buy some thousand-ton warships." ”

Zhang Qiang smiled, this Zheng Chenggong is really getting older and more cunning, he is having a headache about the warships of the Navy Division for more than ten years, the warships are old, and he is ready to develop new warships and warships, so he has come to fight his own ideas.
