Chapter 568: I Can't Change It! (Page 1/1)
Jonlong Harbour has a warm climate, and even in November, it still feels cold. A fortune ship gradually approached this new and prosperous trading port, and before it got close to the port, it saw the new Taiwan city on Sheliao Island from a distance.
The Xiyi people on the ship retracted the clairvoyant mirror and nodded, the location of this island is really good.
Not only can it block the storm on the sea, but it can also control the entire Chicken Coop Bay. It is no wonder that both the Gan Wax people and the Changxing army built the fortress on this island.
As they approached Joncoop Harbor, they saw several sea boats coming in and out, showing the prosperity of the place.
This man couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, the Ganlasi people almost starved to death after occupying this place for more than a year, why did the Changxing army only come here for a few months and turn this place into a trading port?
not only brought the chicken coop back to life, but also robbed them of the market share that should have belonged. As a result, their income plummeted, and they had to come to Chicken Coop Harbor as lobbyists.
That's right! This person is the speaker of the Parliament of Macau, Doug, who is also the governor of Macau. Since Macau was looted by Zhang Dou, it took a year to recover.
With the addition of ships and a large loss of personnel, Doug had to hire a large number of Ming people. This wise decision put Doug in the position of governor, because thanks to the efforts of the hard-working Ming people, Macau quickly recovered.
It didn't take long for the recovered Macao to be suppressed by the Dutch, and their ships to do business in the Wa Kingdom were often robbed by the Dutch.
Moreover, the Dutch also tried to establish a trade point on Taiyuan Island and rob the trade of the Ming Dynasty. Fortunately, there are Gan Wax and Dutch enemies, and the two sides have fought many times, and no one can help the other.
Doug took advantage of the contradictions between the two sides to support the situation in Macau. What he never expected was that such a situation would be broken.
It's still those damn Ming people, and Doug still can't forget that young face and the shameless Alan.
What terrified him the most was the strength of that group of people, who were able to defeat the Ganlasi people and occupy the entire northern part of Taiyuan Island in a short period of time.
When he first heard the news, Doug felt like he was in a dream. His first reaction was disbelief, the navy could not be trained in a day or two.
Even the casting of artillery cannot be completed in a short time, and it takes a lot of time just to dry the mud film.
But anyway, the gang did. And he did a very good job, he came to Jilong Harbor this time to negotiate at the behest of the Gan Lasi people.
Since what cannot be obtained by force, they will get it at the negotiating table. When there is no way out, they will not give up the wealth they have acquired.
Doug also had a reason to come to Chicken Coop Harbor, the rise of Chicken Coop Harbor in recent months, coupled with the fact that pirates were largely liquidated by the Changxing Army, merchants were more willing to transport goods to Chicken Coop Harbor to sell when there was no danger.
The trading floor here is a real boon for merchants, where everything is clearly priced. Don't worry about not being able to sell the goods, and don't worry about being deceived.
Under such circumstances, Macao's business was very bleak, and the Japanese state also forbade them to do business, and Macao, which was originally making money every day, became uncared for.
With a common appeal, the Europeans in the far east united and planned to jointly test the pressure on the Changxing army. Doug is a pathfinder who was sent, and he can't do it but solve it by force.
The Europeans believed that all the forces of the Europeans gathered in the East would definitely be able to defeat the hateful Changxing Army.
Doug got off the ship and went to the trading floor first, and as soon as he arrived, he was attracted by this novel way of trading. No wonder merchants come here, Joncoop Harbor is simply a merchant's paradise.
Here he saw well-dressed Europeans and Arabs with scarves on their heads, as well as the Ming people in fine clothes sitting together like shrews arguing.
I also saw a few merchants and natives in animal skins drinking tea and chatting, and everything here turned Doug's perception upside down. He wondered if Macau could replicate everything here.
Soon he himself came up with a negative answer from the tribe, and all this required a premise, that is, a strong guarantee of force.
Without strong force, everything here is a fat sheep in the eyes of others. And the Changxing Army has exactly this kind of force, so the chicken coop port will prosper in the shortest possible time.
……
Xing Shenyan of Tamsui City showed a mocking smile on his face when he learned that the Francophile had come to negotiate. According to his estimates, the Dry Silk Man should have come a long time ago.
Now that only the Franc machine people have come, it means that the dry wax people are scared, and they don't plan to come to Taiyuan Island again until they are not sure about safety.
It seems that Zhang Huan's killing in Manila was too ruthless, and if the Ganlasi people no longer transported silver from the New World to Daming, I am afraid that the business of Jilong Port will also be affected.
……
Doug walks the streets of Freshwater City, feeling the atmosphere of this newly built city. The people here do not have the numbness on the faces of ordinary people, on the contrary, everyone has a smile on their faces.
The most strange thing for Doug is that it is also very lively, and there is no depression at all as he imagined. There are many shops and restaurants in the wooden buildings on both sides of the street, which does not look like a new city at all.
Towards Doug came a young man and a woman, the man with a baby face. A blue officer uniform of the Changxing Army Navy looked particularly handsome on him, and his sun-tanned face made his immature face more mature.
The girl beside him surprised Doug, with brown-red hair, big eyes, and fair skin, and she looked like a European.
The girl was not very old, only sixteen or seventeen years old. The gauze skirt made her unable to walk fast, so she had no choice but to lift the skirt with both hands and chase after the young officer.
"Zhang Huan! Stop! If you don't stop, I'll call someone! The girl shouted as she glared at the boy's back.
The slightly jerky Chinese made Doug stunned, even if he lived in Daming for a long time, his Chinese was similar to this girl.
Intrigued by the strange pairing, Doug paused to observe the man and woman.
The boy ignored the girl and walked briskly forward. Seeing that the threat was ineffective, the girl opened her throat and shouted: "Indecent! Strong ......"
Before the word could be spoken, the boy in front of him ran back quickly, reached out to cover the girl's mouth, and scolded angrily: "You are crazy! You don't want to be innocent, I still want it! ”
The girl smiled smugly when she saw the boy return. The smile was like a blooming flower, and the boy who watched it was stunned.
Then the boy smiled bitterly: "Melissa! What do you like about me? Please sue me, I can't change it! ”
