Chapter 334: The Sun Fool Disappears
Tokugawa Iemitsu is well versed in Chinese culture, and he actually really wears thorns on his back and looks shirtless.
Seeing him like this, Ming Jian laughed.
"Tokugawa Iemitsu, originally you were unforgivable, and you dared to be disrespectful to me, but since you are guilty of Jing, then I will let you go for the time being, and then, you must cooperate with my actions to persuade all the people under the shogunate to merge into the Qin State, and at the same time, persuade your bullshit emperor to abdicate, and the name of Riben will disappear from now on, do you understand?"
Ming Jian said bluntly to Tokugawa Iemitsu.
Tokugawa Iemitsu hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty's words, the criminal knows that he is wrong, and the criminal will do what His Majesty wants." ”
Tokugawa Iemitsu did not break his promise, and after returning to Edo, he forced the emperor to abdicate, and then issued a national name change announcement to the whole country, announcing that Nippon would henceforth change its name to Qin.
Ming Jian immediately vigorously let the Ming army attack everywhere, and with the assistance of Haneda Feng and Tokugawa Iemitsu, he immediately replaced the officials of the administrative units at all levels of the Qin State and sent people to control the army.
This process is actually very simple, but anyone who dares to resist will be killed. Kill a few more times, it will be easy, the stupid people are far from the spirit of not being afraid of death at this time, and the means of the Ming army are really powerful, so many people give up the confrontation and choose to become obedient people.
After this stormy and bloody suppression, the entire island country was completely controlled by the Ming army.
Based on his last experience in the Great Song Dynasty, Ming Jian immediately ordered Ri Ben to be divided into nine and appointed some of the meritorious officials of the Ming Dynasty as kings.
Wu Sangui, Yang Yizhi, Chen Song, Nian Qianyao, etc. all got the opportunity and became the lord of a country, and their country names were all sealed by Ming Jian, what Zhou, Zhao, Jin, and Chen were, anyway, it was much better than Riben.
And after these kings took office, they all declared that they respected the Ming as the suzerain, and they would never rebel from generation to generation. The key is still the army, which is still the army of the Ming Dynasty, which is at the disposal of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the king has no right to mobilize them.
At the same time, all countries have announced the opening of ports and trade with the Ming Dynasty, so that more of the materials of the Ming Dynasty have entered the markets of various countries, and the economies of various countries have developed rapidly.
The kings of various countries except Haneda Feng were all Han Chinese, and they all learned some of the means of the sword to a greater or lesser extent, and in the same way, they began to favor the lower classes, charging low taxes and distributing land, in addition to stabilizing people's hearts, they also broke the traditional social hierarchy.
In this way, the kings of the countries were quickly embraced, and their rule began to strengthen.
Of course, in order to better integrate into the local folk customs, Han and local people began to intermarry in large numbers, and the locals also took the honor of marrying Han people, according to this trend of development, or a few years, assimilation will be successful, the so-called Yamato nation will become history, and a new nation will be formed.
With the help of the development of various countries, Ming Jian continued to sell the materials of the Ming Dynasty to various countries, and at the same time developed industries in various countries, turning them into powerful economies, rather than vassals.
After all, the current population of the Ming Dynasty is not large, after so many years of development, it is still only a little more than 80 million, and most of them are not young adults, which means that Mingjian needs an overseas base, as an object to help the Ming Dynasty, this place is obviously a suitable object, and the population is about 30 million, and it is easy to develop the productive forces.
But at this time, envoys from all over the world also came to the island, and they also knew what happened on the island and were ready to come and get a piece of the pie.
The first to visit was the Dutch envoy Michel, who had become the new Dutch diplomat since Huntelaar defected to the Netherlands and defected to the Ming Dynasty.
Michelle wisely did not visit the kings of various countries, but came directly to Fukuoka Castle to visit Mingjian.
"Honorable Emperor Daming, on behalf of our Dutch King Wilhelm II, I would like to congratulate Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty has annexed Riben, and its strength has increased a lot, I don't know if Your Majesty can agree, let our Dutch merchant ships also dock for trade."
Michelle made his position clear as soon as he arrived, he just wanted to do business with the countries of the island.
Ming Jian looked completely stunned at this time, and in his arms sat a Qin girl named Michiko Haneda, constantly stroking her.
During this time, he was pampering this well-behaved girl from the Qin Kingdom, and he was no exception to foreign guests.
After listening to Michelle's words, Ming Jian said to the beautiful woman in his arms: "Aifei, what do you think of this Dutchman's words?" ”
Michiko Haneda frowned slightly and said, "This is a state affair, and the concubines don't dare to say anything." ”
"It doesn't matter, you can tell me, once you trade with them, will the countries on the island take advantage, or will they take advantage."
Ming Jian smiled.
When Michiko Haneda heard this, she said: "In this case, the concubines think that they must have taken advantage, and the Netherlands is so far away from the countries on the island, if it is not profitable, why should they wade into the water?" However, if they are willing to trade fairly, it will be fine, so that the countries of the island will be more prosperous and the lives of the people will be better. In addition, their troops are forbidden to enter the waters around the island, otherwise, once they enter, it will be considered a provocation, and the countries of the island can destroy it! ”
"Haha, Concubine Ai's words make a lot of sense, Lord Michelle, did you hear that?" Ming Jian reached out and slapped Michiko Haneda's buttocks, causing the beautiful woman to be coquettish for a while.
Michelle secretly scolded the faint king, secretly thinking how could such a person become the master of the Ming Dynasty? Isn't this the faint king? Ask a woman, is he playing tricks on me?
However, Michel also knew that it was time to enter the markets of the island's countries, although the Netherlands was known as the coachman of the sea, but the Kingdom of England and France also coveted the status of the Dutch, and Spain and Portugal were also waiting for an opportunity, if the Netherlands once it declined, then it could be replaced at any time.
"Your Majesty, there is no problem with such conditions, we can sign bilateral trade agreements with other countries, and the countries and the Netherlands will become friendly countries, and the goods of both sides will be exempted from entry and exit duties when they enter each other's countries, and business activities will be carried out entirely on the basis of the competitiveness of goods, Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Michelle then said.
His words made Ming Jian can't help but look at him with admiration, this is probably the most primitive tariff and trade agreement, and now this era is an era of plunder, and ordinary people will not agree to this condition.
However, Ming Jian smiled and said, "Very good! In this case, it is better to let Daming take the lead in establishing a World Trade Organization, and the countries that join this trade organization will abide by the regulations and enjoy the duty-free policy at the same time, so that the order of world trade will be orderly and beneficial to everyone, Your Excellency Michelle, what do you think? ”
Ming Jian immediately remembered the operation of the WTO in later generations, with this organization, no one would want to let Daming suffer.
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty also has a strong military force, which is the most convincing in this era.
