Section 339 The Zheng Family
The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty
When you meet your old acquaintance in a foreign land, don't come unharmed?
Thinking about it day and night, but it was this tone that was so faint that it seemed like an ordinary friend meeting each other, which made Ye Shaomei's heart even more sour.
The tears that had just barely stopped were uncontrollably gurgling out along the bridge of his nose, blurring his eyes in an instant, and the bitter smile on Brother Ming's face could be vaguely seen in the tears.
It's hard to continue, it's hard to continue. As smart as she is, seeing this situation, she understands that her fate has been lost, and she doesn't need to ask anything more, which will only increase her troubles and make people dislike.
"I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of interrupting me."
Ye Shaomei tried hard to stop the tears from flowing, raised her pretty face, and looked at Qin Haoming, as if she wanted to imprint his appearance deeply in her heart.
"As a country, no matter how difficult it is to Xu Qing, I wish you happiness."
Qin Haoming sighed silently after speaking, turned around and left resolutely.
He has no half-haired relationship with Ye Shaomei, and he doesn't want to be involved. As someone said, he is not the sun, and he cannot be the world in emotional matters.
A quick knife to cut through the mess may be the most appropriate way to deal with it. That's it, he still said tactfully in front of the nerd.
For a year, Ye Shaomei had many dreams, and there were other ideas, how could he have thought that it would be such a heartless short sentence.
Looking at Brother Ming's back as he walked away, tears rolled in her beautiful eyes, and she stared at him stupidly, "Brother Ming's heart is as strong as iron, but with Xu Jun's heart, it will be difficult to tolerate him!" ”
Compared to the scorching day, the summer night is always so intoxicating, and the dark sky is covered with a few shining stars, which is particularly dazzling.
A bright moon hung high in the air, and the faint light was like a light veil, fluttering and sprinkling in the sky, like sprinkled with a layer of broken silver, shining brightly.
Under the moonlight, Anping Castle stands quietly on the land of Nan'an, witnessing the glory of the Zheng family.
In the spring of the third year of Chongzhen, Zheng Zhilong built a luxurious mansion in Anhai Town, which lasted three years and two months, and Anping became Zheng Zhilong's military base and maritime trade base for self-defense.
The whole Zheng Mansion is located in the north of Anping Bridge, west from Xidai to Xigang, north to Xi'antou, south of Anping Bridge, straight to five ports, covering an area of 150 acres.
The main structure is a mountain type with 13 bays and 13 rooms, and a three-way door, a double fire lane, and a five-entry courtyard. On both sides, the wings, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions are opposite each other, and the ring is listed as a barrier.
There is Dunren Pavilion in the east, there is Taiyun Building in the west, the front hall is the Catholic Church, the middle hall is the filial piety hall, the scale is grand.
Behind the big house there is Zhiyuan Garden, the perimeter is protected by the wall, and the hills, pavilions, fine houses, ponds, small bridges, winding paths, beautiful trees, strange flowers and plants are sparse.
Until the ninth year of Yongli, Zheng Chenggong destroyed his family and restored his sight and set himself on fire.
In the center of the castle, in Zheng Zhilong's large study, there are several large crosschairs made of South Sea rosewood, each with a large tiger skin on it.
In the middle is a rosewood coffee table, on which are placed a bronze tripod and several books, a set of four treasures of the study.
A black slave was burning incense to make tea and wiping down the tabletop.
Zheng Zhilong had an army of 300 blacks, all of whom were Christians and trusted him with their loyalty to the Zheng family.
After a while, the three brothers Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Zhibao, and Zheng Hongkui came together to participate in the family meeting.
Hearing the sound of talking, a slender middle-aged man walked out of the back room, wearing a purple robe, with white skin, eyebrows like a crescent moon, eyes like stars, three strands of long hair floating on his chest, and a beautiful man in the world, this person is naturally Zheng Zhilong.
Let the brothers sit down, raise his hand to signal the servant to go out, Zheng Zhilong walked to the tiger skin chair in the middle and sat down, took out a stack of documents and handed it to the fourth child, Zheng Hongkui, who was responsible for reading the content on it.
The three brothers Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Zhibao, and Zheng Hongkui are not highly educated, and it is okay to read some straightforward texts, but if it is some obscure documents in the imperial court, it will be a little difficult to deal with.
Zheng Zhilong is a very capable but insightful character.
He is a bit like Wang Xifeng in Dream of Red Mansions in many ways, and his skills and skills are first-class.
However, they are uneducated, cannot see the overall situation clearly, have problems in grasping the overall situation, and are prone to make wrong strategic decisions.
In fact, Zheng Zhilong is somewhat aware of his shortcomings in this regard, so although he has always been despised by civil officials, he is very keen to turn his son and brother into scholars.
Zheng Chenggong has always been able to have a stable position in history, which is inseparable from his fame and a world-famous teacher.
"Wait a minute, this matter is suspended."
When he heard that the clansmen in charge of Taiwan affairs had asked for another 5,000 people to be emarmed this year, with three taels of silver and three cattle to be transported to Taiwan by sea boat to settle down, Zheng Zhilong raised his hand and interrupted.
"Big brother, but what's the problem?"
Zheng Zhihu asked suspiciously.
He is in charge of this affairs, and the Zheng family's immigration to Taiwan has been going on for nearly ten years, which is one of the long-term tasks of the family as a base area.
Since the first year of Chongzhen, it has never stopped.
In the history of Taiwan, Zheng Zhilong can be said to be the first person to organize large-scale immigration.
At that time, the Dutch East India Company ruled southern Taiwan, and built two cities, Geransha City and Puruminsha City, in Dayuan (present-day Tainan City), garrisoning nearly 2,000 people, but there were tens of thousands of mainland immigrants.
The Dutch did garrison Taiwan at that time and established Hongmao City. However, at that time, the Dutch did not control Taiwan, and they only borrowed the port to engage in Far Eastern trade with the permission of Zheng Zhilong.
Zheng Zhilong was the real ruler of Taiwan, and began an ambitious plan to emigrate from Fujian to Taiwan. As long as those who are willing to go, give silver, land and cattle, the stormy Ming government can't control it at all.
