In Fu Ning's eyes, there is no concept of unclear teaching and acceptance between men and women, and the current Liuqiu is also the same; In a country that is completely immigrant, the inherent concept has been broken, the thinking is very open and advanced, and the Department of Culture has not spared no effort in propaganda for several years, so the feudal concept of unclear teaching and acceptance between men and women has been gradually diluted, so Fu Ning couldn't imagine that the reason for Qin Keqing's collapse was "his own support". Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The doctor came quickly, and didn't find anything wrong, thinking that Qin Keqing might be a little tired, just rest more; And Fu Ning couldn't continue to ask for the time being, so he took a book to read, waiting for Qin Keqing, who was "pretending to be asleep", to wake up, so he could continue to ask, but Qin Keqing didn't want to "wake up" for a long time, so Fu Ning had to let people "take good care" and then leave.

Zhang Wu of Yanshantang received Fu Ning's order in early August, and then received a "special allocation" of 300,000 taels of silver tickets from the Intelligence Department; In Zhang Wu's opinion, it would be easy to just take away one or two people from Jiafu, but Fu Ning's order was too difficult, "Almost all the young women in the Rongning Second Mansion of the Jia family, as well as more than thirty related relatives and related women, the mission operation must be secret and not cause any casualties!" First of all, it is necessary to transfer Qin Keqing and his maid Huan of Ningguo Mansion, Yahuan Qingwen and Jin Chu'er of Rongguo Mansion! This is a big problem for Zhang Wu; Fortunately, Fu Ning just asked Zhang Wu to do his best, and if he could transfer one, there was no time limit.

Zhang Wu was very confused about this task, but the system of intelligence officers is "to understand and execute, and not to understand!" So Zhang Wu couldn't complain, so he could only find a way to steal Qin Keqing and his maid ring first; Then someone pretended to be a wealthy Shandong Xiucai and gave Mrs. Wang 15,000 taels of silver to secretly buy Qingwen and Bai Jinchuan, together with Bai Yuchuan and Bai Lao's daughter-in-law, they all made gifts; Because at the beginning, "Shandong Xiucai" negotiated with Mrs. Wang for 5,000 taels of silver Qingwen and 5,000 taels of silver for Jin Chuan, so on the surface, Mrs. Wang "married" Qingwen and Jin Chuan "for free" to Shandong Xiucai, and also pasted a dowry of several hundred taels of silver in vain, and her face and reputation were gone, but Mrs. Wang was actually able to get 15,000 taels of silver for nothing, and she agreed.

Bai Jinchuan was very scared after being picked up by "Shandong Xiucai", and shouted that he had to bring his sister Bai Yuchuan and his mother Bai Lao's daughter-in-law, otherwise he would seek death and life; "Shandong Xiucai" couldn't, so he had to discuss with Mrs. Wang again, bought Bai Yuchuan with an extra 5,000 taels, and took Mrs. Wang to "give" a white old daughter-in-law for free, and the "intermediary" Zhou Rui's family secretly got a "brokerage fee" of 1,000 taels of silver, and the transaction of "buying a wife" was completed.

Mrs. Wang got 15,000 taels of silver and didn't want to make a noise, so she agreed to the proposal of "Shandong Xiucai" to "keep a low profile", so only a few people in Rongguo Mansion knew that Bai Jinchuan and the three were hastily released to marry, and many people didn't know that Rongguo Mansion was missing three maids and an old family servant.

Qingwen didn't expect that she would be "sold" silently, although she brought her cousin and sister-in-law, she was still heartbroken; The unknown future is always frightening, just like Qin Keqing's mood when he was first kidnapped; Fortunately, they arrived at Tanggu Port in three days, got on the boat and were taken over by the female guard, and the three maidens were much more stable, knowing that they were not actually bought by "Shandong Xiucai", but to serve something "very noble nobleman!" ”。

The news that Qingwen "was let out to marry by Mrs. Wang" was soon known by Mrs. Jia's mother, because Qingwen was pointed out to Jia Baoyu by Jia's mother and used to serve Jia Baoyu, and Mrs. Wang "released" Qingwen silently, so Jia's mother was very angry and made a little fire to Mrs. Wang, but the wood was already in the boat, after all, there was nothing to be done.

There is only one Jia Baoyu in Jia Mansion who is sad because of this, and it is useless to "splash and roll" to entangle Jia's mother, and Jia Baoyu is honest as soon as Mrs. Wang gets angry; Jia Baoyu once went to Qingwen's aunt and cousin Wu Gui's house to find Qingwen, but the neighbor said that Wu Gui and his wife followed Qingwen, so Jia Baoyu was even more sad, but the sadness was only "three minutes of heat", and it was quickly forgotten.

Qingwen Jin Chuan's three daughters arrived at the chicken coop hall before Qin Keqing, and were placed in an orphanage called "Badou" after Fu Ning slept once, until three years later, Qingwen recognized Baoqin who came to the orphanage to inspect and knew Fu Ning's true identity, but at this time, the three daughters had already married others and lived very well.

Zhang Wu couldn't think of a way to get out of Qingwen and the three of them, and he wanted to let those Yahuan's family members come forward to redeem a few people at a high price, but this method may not be able to get a few people, but it will startle the snake, so Zhang Wu was very confused and couldn't think of a good way.

"The operation must be secretive, and there must be no casualties!" , this is Fu Ning's order to Zhang Wu, but it is also the most difficult place for Zhang Wu to do; It wasn't until the end of August that Jia Yuanchun and Baoqin's handwritten letters were delivered to Zhang Wu that Zhang Wu came up with an idea; That is to directly ask for someone in the name of Jia Yuanchun, and ask the Jia family to keep it secret.

Zhang Wu's plan was first sent back to the chicken coop headquarters, and then sent back to Yanjing after Fu Ning's comments and prompts, so it was finally finalized to start the plan at the beginning of the first month of the second year, and at this time, Zhang Wu's "special operation fee" had also been raised by Fu Ning to 500,000 taels of British and Korean silver tickets.

In September and October, the navy launched 20 new main ships one after another, and the navy set up a second main fleet, and after a month of adaptation training, it sailed to the Bohai Sea to forcibly occupy Lushun, which belonged to the Bohai State, and then cleaned up all the aliens and began to build a large naval base in Lushun. The 9th and 10th Marine Divisions began to be formed in Yingju Hasekiseki-jeong in October, preparing to forcibly occupy Jeju Island in Goryeo and build a large naval base after the Chinese New Year. By the end of March 1724, the navy had realized the strategic layout of 10 naval bases, including Arthur Hall, Jeju Island, Shimonoseki Hall, Nagasaki Hall, Xiaoliuqiu, Jilong Hall, Penghu Hall, Manila, Cebu Hall, and Boni Hall, and fully controlled the East Asian seas. The 1st Marine Division was stationed at Arthur Hall, the 9th and 10th Divisions were stationed at Jeju Island, the 2nd Division was stationed at Xiaguan Port on Yingzhou Main Island, the 3rd Division was stationed at Yingzhou Island, Daiyu Island and Yuanqiao Island, the 4th Division was stationed at Changjo Island and Nagasaki Port, the 5th Division was stationed at the Chicken Coop Hall and the Reserve Motor, the 6th Division was stationed at the Penghu Hall, as well as the Chiji Hall and Changhua, the 7th Division was stationed in Luzon Province, the 8th Division was stationed at the Boni Hall, and the East China Sea Guards Division was stationed at the Chicken Coop Hall to guard. The First Fleet of the East China Sea was transferred to Nanyang to guard the sea surface from Boni Hall to Jilong Port, and the Second Fleet of the East China Sea guarded the sea surface from Jilong Port to Lushun Port; Wireless communication battalions began to be stationed at each garrison to establish and maintain immediate communication between the garrison and the chicken coop headquarters. So far, the military strength of the East China Sea State is 10,000 guards under the direct management of Fu Ning; There are more than 50,000 people in the Logistics Department, two naval fleets and 10 marine divisions under the jurisdiction of the Military Affairs Department. The total military and armed forces of the East China Sea State have exceeded 150,000.

In August 1723, the East China Sea began its economic transformation, steam-powered ships began to fully replace wooden ships, and small steam ships and various wooden ships began to be sold, which led to a series of favorable and unfavorable consequences; On the positive side, it mainly increased finance, expanded the import of raw materials and the export of industrial products; On the downside, it led to the exodus of small steam-powered ships and technology, and the most direct consequence was the increase in piracy in the South Seas. In the past, the control of steam ships by the Ryuqiu forces was very tight, and it was difficult for outside forces to obtain them; With its superiority in technology and strength, the Ryukyu forces have no rivals and harassment at sea; The sale of small steam ships has led to an increase in the number of converted pirate ships, and there have been incidents of pirates harassing ships in the East China Sea in the South Sea; Fu Ning can understand that those new corsairs must have been remodeled and disguised by the ships bought by the Europeans, and it is too normal for the Europeans to only focus on practical profits, and one thing on the face and one behind the other; Therefore, Fu Ning's response can only be to "remind the Europeans to restrain themselves", and at the same time send the First Fleet of the East China Sea Navy to severely crack down on all kinds of pirates who dare to harass the ships of the East China Sea State.

In 1723, the East China Sea Kingdom had a contract with European merchants for 600,000 quintals of cotton, and in September of that year, Lao Yue also announced that he had prepared an offer for the demand for 1 million quintals of cotton in 1724, and an offer for the export of 300,000 boxes of porcelain; For this reason, the Europeans began to prepare to expand the colonial war against Tianzhu, and strive to seize Tianzhu, a very important cotton production area in the world, as soon as possible.

In the spring of 1724, when Fu Ning heard that a war had broken out in Tianzhu, he thought that the Europeans were fighting each other, but the European businessmen who saw the mutual harmony in Jilong Port realized that it was not the Europeans who fought each other, but worked together to expand the colonial war against Tianzhu; It turned out that the Europeans had begun to learn to cooperate in the Tianzhu Colonial War, and now the situation in the whole of Europe is quite stable, with almost no waves, only Britain and France are fiercely competing for colonies in North America, and other countries are busy plundering and expanding their colonies, and there is no sign of infighting at all.

Fu Ning knew that he had taken it for granted and miscalculated the situation in the world; After sorting out the current affairs of the intelligence department on the countries of the world, I figured out that during this period, except for East Asia and Tianzhu, there were almost no wars in the world, of course, the small-scale wars in which the Europeans expanded their colonies did not count, in fact, the East China Sea State had become the only "source of war" in the world at this time.

The Europeans were only in the early stage of colonial expansion at this time, the feudal empire of Spain and Portugal had declined, the commercial empire of the sea coachman Netherlands had also been defeated and declined by Britain and France, and only the backward "little brothers" England and Francois were the craziest and now "catch whoever bites whom", and they have long been "biting" each other in Tianzhu and other places in North America. The colonies occupied by the Europeans were mainly coastal cities and islands in Asian, African, and American states; The Americas were relatively mature colonies, with Portugal and Spain occupying the largest territories, but most of the inland territories were only official and on paper; By then, a large number of British and French territories had been added to the east coast of North America. Africa was occupied mainly by coastal ports, and only South Africa was more mature under Dutch control; The Middle East is the "meat in the pot" of the behemoth "Ottoman Empire". As for Tianzhu, the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb had been dead for seventeen years, and the empire had in fact long since it was torn apart, reduced to a place of commercial plunder and dumping by Europeans, whose influence had spread all over the coast; In particular, in the past two years, the Europeans began to widely use the Nimi bomb technology that had been lost by Liuqiu, and the war against the interior of Tianzhu jointly launched by the Europeans in 1724 was just a major exercise of Nimi bomb technology; The territory of Tianzhu was almost completely reduced to a colony, and the resources and territory were divided by the Europeans through negotiation, and the majority was the British who had just popularized the Nimi bomb.

In East Asia, a decade of industrialization in Ryuqiu has created miracles, and massive commercial interests have attracted a large number of European merchants. Spain lost Luzon and its activities in East Asia turned to commerce, with more than 4,000 Spaniards resident in the chicken coop hall alone, and large fleets of ships traveling between the island of Liuqiu and Mexico; To the west, it occupied many of the coastal ports of Tianzhu and, in 1724, a large part of the territory of Tianzhu, trading resources and industrial goods to the island. Although Spain has long since begun to decline, it is still a commercial "big player" in Liuqiu Province by virtue of its American colonies, and Spain is also the earliest European colonial power to "deal with" in Liuqiu.

At this time, the Netherlands was the hegemon of European finance, and although its naval and land power had long since been defeated by Britain and France, its large colonies and sufficient finance were still the inherent capital of the Netherlands. There are still large colonies in the western part of Tianzhu in Asia, as well as Ceylon, Malacca, Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Dutch Guinea and other places, which can sell resources to Liuqiu to transport industrial products nearby; Moreover, after August 1723, almost seventy percent of the ships sold in the East China Sea were bought by the Dutch, because the Dutch were the richest.

England is a rising star in Europe, since the "Glorious Revolution" basically established Europe's maritime supremacy, in just a few decades has been rapidly expanding its colonies in North America and Tianzhu, showing a strong upward momentum. In East Asia, England was also the only power competing with the East China Sea for cotton resources, because both sides needed a large amount of cotton for the textile industry. At the same time, England is also the best at learning, and the Nimi bullet used by Fu Ning when he unified Ryukyu Island ten years ago was also the first to be imitated and spread by England; Moreover, the latest information obtained by the Intelligence Division from European merchants indicates that the English army has begun to be equipped with Nimi ammunition on a large scale, and that imitations of the Ryuqiu steam engine have appeared for use in the textile industry.

As for the Fur Machine, they are now mainly engaged in North America, with almost no colonial interests in Asia and only a small number of commercial interests, and several small bases in Tianzhu have also been taken away by the British in recent years, until the beginning of 1724, when the British and Dutch "East India Company" were preparing to jointly launch a military operation against Tianzhu, they returned those small strongholds to the Franc Machine, in exchange for the cooperation of the Franc Machine in East Asia, and the realization of the military action against Tianzhu by various countries at the same time, but that was all in 1724.

European power began to spread Nimi bombs and steam power, and Fu Ning did not know and could not judge whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for the East China Sea countries; However, as far as the current situation is concerned, there are no European forces hostile to the East China Sea, and only the English are competing with the East China Sea for Asian cotton resources.

In September 1723, Fourning was not idle, and his main concern was the launching of the navy's new capital ships, and occasionally the consideration of whether to seize the Natuna Islands.
