Chapter Ninety-Nine: Kindness
Countless people in the Great Song Dynasty wanted to travel to foreign lands and colonize, so naturally there was a dart game.
Walking overseas is a risky business. High income is always accompanied by high risk, and there is risk control and insurance in the future society of the earth, and there is a similar concept in this otherworldly Great Song Dynasty.
However, the original concept of risk control in the Song Dynasty was developed on the basis of the dart game money bank.
Merchants who go to sea insure their goods to the dart board, and then sail out to sea, at this time the dart board will be responsible for the maritime merchants.
Like pirates? Another example is the storm, the loss caused by various reasons will have a corresponding project in the dart game, and it is also because of the project you insured to bear the corresponding responsibility.
Or in places like Jinshan Port in the New World, where it is inconvenient for the imperial court to take charge, the dart game will also take action to protect each other. Where there is interest, there is the shadow of the dart game.
This is the traditional dart board in hundreds of years of continuous adaptation to change caused by many changes, and the Great Song Dynasty in the territory of those money bank some business is somewhat similar, in short, the Great Song Dynasty dart board has become a new industry, all related to overseas colonization, most of the dart board has provided business.
For the overseas explorers and colonial pioneers of the Great Song Dynasty, these dart bureaus that manage everything are almost everyone's wet nurses, and if you can't find an official place for everything, you just need to find the local dart bureau directly, and most of the dart bureaus will have a business that meets your needs. It's really everything, it's everything.
Therefore, it is conceivable that these dart boards have the power overseas.
If you have the ability to check the shareholder register hidden behind the dart board, you will definitely be able to see the names of many bigwigs who often appear on the cover of the newspaper, and you will suddenly understand why the dart game can obtain so many unimaginable resources.
Zheng Yiguan boarded his ship from Jilong Harbor in his hometown of Taipei, and looked back at the port around him, and behind him was a fleet of ships about to set sail.
The first one was extremely tall, far different from the ships in the port, it was Zheng Yiguan's car, and it was also the flagship of this fleet.
The boats in the harbor were all local boats, mainly small boats that walked near the South Seas, among them there were lucky boats, there were wide boats, and there were sampans that were only a few meters long, far less tall than the boats he was riding, and these boats were parked in the middle of the surrounding small boats, like giant elephants to dogs and horses, and it was inevitable that they would stand out from the crowd.
After all, Jilong Harbor is not Dinghai, and it is rare to see so many ships docked in a big port like Mengzhou.
And the ships in the fleet he led were all real sea ships, especially his flagship, which was to be used as a warship when necessary. How could there be no defensible warship?
At the beginning, he tried to ask someone to get this boat from the sailors of His Royal Highness King Dinghaining, just because it was coveted for its strong hull and could carry a few more cannons.
Such a ship is in the mouths of those foreigners from the West, it should be regarded as that kind of what, a third-class battleship? Oh no, how could he want that kind of stupid thing, they dart seamen, even if they really want a warship, and they will only want a good ship that runs fast and has a lot of firepower.
Cruiser? That's certainly the best.
However, it is a pity that the three overseas feudatories, no matter which one they are, will never sell to them. No matter how much money they come up with, it's impossible.
Yan Siqi patted him on the shoulder,
"What? Are you reluctant to go so far away, Jinshan Port! Tell your brother, you kid is definitely a fat deal this time! You don't even know how rich the New World Jinshan Port is. ”
Zheng Yiguan snorted and laughed,
"How rich can you be, is it possible, it is really a whole mountain of gold, if that is the case, our official family will not immediately send a warship to occupy it, and will let us dart sailors go there to help tidy up the place."
He was indeed a little homesick and missed the doll at home, who was only five or six years old, but when he heard Yan Siqi say it, he couldn't help but have a fight with Brother Yan.
Yan Siqi glared at a pair of bull's eyes,
"You know a fart, if it weren't for the fact that Jinshan Port was too far away from the Central Plains, and the news of the wealth of the gold mine spread too fast, there was no way to stop the people from going to pan for gold, wouldn't the official in Jinling City in the Central Plains want to send troops to occupy it? Even if there isn't a real mountain of gold there, I'm afraid it won't be much worse.
Wang Liu, who was in the dart shop before, just went to help a group of seafarers there dart, and finally came back with half a boatload of gold, several tons, several tons of gold! Now Wang Liu's shitty seed will not go to sea again at all, and I heard from the people in the head office that now he and his brothers are making a fuss there to wash their hands in a golden basin. ”
"Moreover, you have also seen the gold mines on the island of Borneo and Java, if so, the gold diggers in it are miserable, and from time to time they have to fight for themselves, after all, the wealth is moving, and the people who die every year in the gold mines are much more than those who get rich overnight by panning for gold.
My Song Dynasty official family has always boasted of being a holy monarch, and our officials disdain to do this kind of thing that dirties their hands, not only do the officials not do it, but you see which of those princes and marquis has to do it.
This is a hot potato, except for those of us who specialize in carrying the black pot for others, which big guy do you think is willing to stand up. ”
After listening to Yan Siqi's words, Zheng Yiguan was young after all,
"But they don't come forward to come forward, it's not them who come forward to buy gold at the port, not only those gold companies belong to them, but the restaurants in the ports and gold mines, brothels, money houses, and road traffic are all theirs, so that those miserable gold diggers go to pan for gold by themselves, and their own families don't need to go into the mountains at all, they only need to get stuck in the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the gold diggers, and those gold diggers who have worked hard from the mountains will not be obediently handed over to them in the end?"
"What they did was really a good business, and they got the gold in the hands of those people without much effort, and the gold diggers who seemed to flock to it didn't make wedding dresses for them in the end."
"Hey, hey! It's good that you know! ”
Yan Siqi patted Zheng Yiguan's shoulder again,
"This is how things are in this world, the weak eat the strong, if you and my brother hadn't worked hard to make such a future, would you say that we are much better than those gold diggers?"
"The world says that we bullied the weak everywhere, and we are ruthless in dealing with the natives, in fact, how do they know that compared to those big men above, they are already merciful and tight in the hands of our brothers."
Benevolent?
Hey!
When he said this kind of thing, even Zheng Yiguan blushed when he heard it.
