In the autumn of the 11th year of the Apocalypse, Macao was officially set up as a prefecture, and the first prefect was the Jinshi Guan Shaoning in the eighth year of the Apocalypse. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Before Guan Shaoning took up his post, Zhu Youxiao specially summoned him to the Qianqing Palace to ask for a face-to-face order, which can also be seen Zhu Youxiao's ardent expectation of relying on Macao to open up a new window for maritime trade.

Moreover, it was not only directly elevated Macao, which was still a small town, to a prefecture-level administrative body, Zhu Youxiao also ordered a decree to Gu Sanmazi, the chief officer of the South China Sea Fleet, ordering him to be stationed in Tuntian in Xin'an County (now Hong Kong) and rebuilt into a port.

Zhu Youxiao planned to temporarily turn this place into a military port, and then gradually make it an important trading port outside of Macao, and form a corner with Macao, so as to prepare for his military strategy when the Franc machine man returned.

It is even foreseeable that after a few years, the Pearl River Delta with the bases of Guangzhou, Xin'an County and Macao will form the Ming version of the economically developed Pearl River Delta.

Guan Shaoning, who was also the prefect of Macao, will officially announce the Ming tariff collection regulations and trade encouragement policies for them.

In the same way, the governor of Guangzhou, Shang Zhou Zuo, was also ordered to officially ban the maritime ban policy of the Guangzhou government and encourage the common people to go to sea, but when it comes to bulk goods and goods that need to be controlled by the state, they must also be specially approved and inspected by the municipal shipping department before they can be allowed to import and export.

For example, some alien animals and plants have also been included in the scope of control, although people do not know what biological invasion is now, but according to the past experience and the special instructions of the emperor Zhu Youxiao, a special agency has also been set up to control this pass, and all creatures that are not in the Ming Dynasty will be subject to strict inspection measures before they can be allowed to enter the Ming Dynasty.

Turia could not give up the temptation of the supermarket of Daming, and finally accepted the invitation of Guan Shaoning, the prefect of Macau, to set foot on the land of Macao again as a representative of Francophone merchants.

However, this time, if he wanted to live in Macao for a long time and run his own business, he had to pay the taxes prescribed by the imperial court, and was not allowed to deal in any goods that were prohibited from trade, and of course smuggling.

As for what extraterritoriality is, Guan Shaoning also specially explained this to these foreign businessmen.

Therefore, after returning to Macao again in Turia and learning about the attitude and policy of the Ming Dynasty towards these foreign businessmen, he was approached by the Macau public security and escorted to the prison of the Macau prefect on suspicion of smuggling opium and killing innocent fishermen.

In this way, Turia became the first prisoner to be held in Macao since the establishment of the government, and the first foreign prisoner.

Turia was very annoyed by this, he didn't expect the Ming court to be so untrustworthy, originally it was good to invite these foreign traders back to Macao to discuss the deal, but who knew that he had just finished talking about the deal, and arrested himself.

"What extraterritoriality, I want to see your prefect! I am the baron of the Franco, when it is your turn to be imprisoned and judged, you are restricting my freedom in life! ”

Turia grabbed the cell door with both hands and kept shouting, but no one paid attention to him, and after shouting for a long time, the original residents of Macau, who were appointed as a prison by Guan Shaoning because they were proficient in the language of the Franco, couldn't help but scold: "What's the howl, haven't you read the Daming Daily, Your Majesty has issued a clear decree half a year ago, and will add an extraterritoriality to the Daming Law, the purpose is to control you Westerners, don't think that if you break the law in my Daming, you can really be opened by Yousi because it is a foreign fan;

It is written in the law of the Ming Dynasty, no matter what country or region, as long as the laws and other rules of the Ming Dynasty are violated in the Ming Dynasty, you must follow the rules of the Ming Dynasty! Not to mention that you are a Franc machine, that is, in the mission from the Korean country, because a member of the royal family killed a common man in the envoy and was immediately beheaded, it is said that he is still the crown prince of the king of Joseon, and many ministers have advised His Majesty to open up the net for this reason, after all, the death of an ordinary person to kill a crown prince will affect the relationship with the Korean state.

But His Majesty the Emperor was a man who loved the people, and immediately reprimanded the ministers, saying that they did not take the people seriously, and said that this kind of thing had to be done according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, and that the prince was guilty of the same crime as the common people, and the crown prince of Korea was also beheaded.

And who do you think you are, what kind of Franc machine, and Lao Tzu's chicken is big, and I still want to let you be put on it, dream about it! ”

Turia listened to this man's words, and for a while he could only sit depressedly on the wetland covered with straw, and at the same time regretted that he should not have returned to Macau so easily, but he did not expect that he would become a prisoner like this.

……

However, although Turia, these foreign merchants who participated in the siege of Guangzhou and sold opium, were imprisoned by Guan Shaoning, who rebelled, the absolute majority of foreign merchants were still treated favorably by Guan Shaoning, except for those who refused to pay taxes or apply for residence permits.

Few merchants were willing to follow the Ming court, which had taken full control of Macau, and even though they learned that some of them, such as Turia, had been imprisoned, they still did not show strong protest.

Because they knew that protests were ineffective, and they desperately needed a bright market, most of them chose to cooperate with Guan Shaoning's new policy.

As a result, in just one month later, a large number of foreign sailing ships began to gather near Macao, but now most of them are pure merchant ships, and the Macao government originally stipulated that no armed merchant ships were allowed to enter the port of Macao, but after these Western negotiations and explained that now piracy is rampant, they must have a certain ability to defend themselves, and after obtaining the permission of the imperial court, Guan Shaoning allowed these caravans to bring small armed merchant ships into the waters near Macao.

Then, less than three months after the establishment of the prefect's yamen, Macau's prefect received more than 7 million silver dollars in taxes, which was the first quarter and a time when much trade had not been fully opened.

At the same time, the Royal Industries Company and the Royal Weaving Bureau also began to establish their own branches in Macau, among which the high-quality glass products of the Royal Industries Company were all bought by these big traders in less than half a month after they appeared in Macao, and the Royal Weaving Bureau was the same.

Gong Yonggu and Mao Yisheng both played for Zhu Youxiao at the same time, and within half a year, it may allow the imperial court to add tens of millions of silver dollars per year.

Zhu Youxiao was naturally overjoyed when he found out, and while crowning Gu San Mazi as the governor of the left capital, he also made Shang Zhouzuo's right deputy capital imperial history directly changed to the right capital imperial history, and at the same time, Guan Shaoning also added the title of deputy envoy of the sea route, in order to prepare for the opening of Guangzhou and Xin'an County after the door of Macao was fully opened.
