The next morning, there was a layer of morning fog on the sea, and the sun rose from the eastern sea, and the clear blue sky was sparsely falling, and there were only a few elegant clear clouds;

A strong wind blew away the mist on the sea, and the white water revealed four Western sailing ships and a peninsula -- it was Lijiawan.

Nathaniel was now washed, his head held high, and he wore a wig and a tricorne on his bald head, which he had shaved only yesterday, and the wig that was used by Judge Joseph Cow in modern times.

Zhang Yanzhi's storage space is really everything.

Not only that, but his captive uniform was also changed, and he was replaced by a baroque aristocratic dress popular in Europe in the 17th century;

As a European aristocratic style of dressing, the Baroque style is vulgarly called 'trench'!

The use of the most expensive fabrics, the use of a large number of elaborate embroidery, lace lace, and the use of dazzling gold and silver embellishments, thus giving the Baroque style clothing a strong aura.

This set of Baroque aristocratic costumes is provided by Su Ming Anime.

What made the captives even more stunned was that he had a matching sword and a short-barreled flintlock musket hanging from his waist!

Obviously, and ironically, the captives who rolled on the ground yesterday are now nobles again!

"You traitor!" Captain Wild pointed at him and shouted!

"You betrayed the country!"

"You can't die well!!"

A burst of shouting and scolding erupted from the mouths of the middle and upper captives of the fleet!

Their eyes can breathe fire: jealousy, envy, and hatred flood their brains.

"Aha-haha!" Nathaniel laughed, and then his face changed:

"You dare to say that you didn't say it yourself?"

Everyone was ashamed and abnormal, but there was no way to refute it. His face was flushed.

"Hmph, a bunch of cowards. He will always be worthy of being a lowly captive. ”

"You-"

"Don't talk nonsense, you can pick a few people to accompany you back." Zhang Yanzhi was not interested in watching them dog-eat-dog. urged.

"Don't forget who you are."

"Yes, sir!" Nathaniel nodded obediently.

Zhang Yanzhi's words pierced Nathaniel's heart like a thorn, his life is still in this hand, and this person will use this group of people to coerce him in the future

-- This group of people clearly knows that they have betrayed their homeland, and they can testify to it.

Oh, God! Your hard-won wealth and status must not be lost again!

"Ricardo, Robinson, out of line!"

The Portuguese Ricardo and the translator Robinson were ecstatic, they were actually named by Nathaniel, and they were about to have their own? Is this true?

"Ricardo. Don't forget that you've betrayed Portugal and the Trench Mirror—"

"And you Robinson, the matter between you and the Countess has let the Count know that the consequences are serious!"

"Willing to serve sir." Both had control over Nathaniel and had to hurry to show their allegiance.

"Y-traitors?!" Captain Wild had given the least of the explanations last night, and now he was going crazy, and he rushed up almost crazy-

Then there was a fat beating by the soldiers of the Pinghai Sea Army at Wild.

"Hahahaha-" Nathaniel smirked as the two now swapped places, looking down at the beaten Captain Wilder from above

Then Nathaniel did not dare to delay, and went away with two of his men;

Ricardo's other identity is the younger brother of a member of the Entrenchment Council, but Ricardo, who failed the mission and betrayed the motherland, naturally will not go back to his brother;

Ricardo would get on a Portuguese boat through connections. returned to Europe with two others;

They also carried a 'trade permit' and a letter from the 'governor' of the East—

These three people have a difficult future, they are the 'three musketeers' who defend the British royal power, and the number one enemy of Cromwell in the British Parliament

After dealing with the British prisoners, Zhang Yanzhi ran to Pinghai and Goose City on his bicycle;

He arranged a bunch of people who worked hard for themselves to work and study -- he said that he would organize a group to brush Yangcheng.

Zhang Yanzhi of modern Yangcheng is familiar with it, but he has not been to Yangcheng at the end of the Ming Dynasty!

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Yangcheng was not only the capital of Zhujiang Province, but also the intersection of Chinese and Western civilizations, and the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road.

In the feudal dynasty's Shinong industry and commerce. Under the environment of 'emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business', Yangcheng is a city that has been open to the outside world for a long time because it is located in the 'border of the imperial dynasty'. The commercial atmosphere is very strong, and mercantilism prevails;

It has become very common for local gentry, literati, and ordinary citizens to do business. has reached the level of 'no official and no official';

But no matter how 'mercantient'. In the final analysis, Yangcheng at the end of the Ming Dynasty was still the initial stage of bureaucratic capitalism;

Do some small business, as long as you pay the 'protection fee' on time, no one cares about you;

But the business is bigger, don't you want to find a backer with the corresponding status?

That's just congratulations, hehe!

Zhang Yanzhi unfortunately belongs to the type of people who want to buy and sell big, and he doesn't know that he has been hit three times by the government-business association.

As a result, he failed every time, he turned defeat into victory every time, and he went further every time, and he is still tenaciously doing his own business.

Zhang Yanzhi also has his advantages, as an overseas person, or even a foreign nobleman;

According to the 'fine tradition' of Huaxia of 'giving preferential treatment to crooked people', his whereabouts are uncertain, and it is not something that local officials can manipulate at will.

Officials will be cautious if they don't want to cause diplomatic trouble and if they don't know who he is.

On this trip to Yangcheng, Zhang Yanzhi does not plan to run away-

On the one hand, he wants to participate in the 'Lingnan Four Talents Competition', strive to be famous, and advertise Australian Song goods!

Then, naturally, the sub-base will also be opened to Yangcheng!

After all, the two bases of Goose City and Pinghai are too small, their influence and radiation scope are far from enough, and the throughput of Australian and Song goods is limited;

Yangcheng is different, it is definitely a new level.

In the end, he helped the Yan family to get out of the relationship, and at the same time, he took the opportunity to help the Yan family get out of the relationship, and he took the opportunity to get involved with the 'pirate deputy envoy'.

You must know that the Portuguese settled in Macao by bribing the 'pirate deputy envoy' of Zhujiang Yangcheng!

It can be seen how much power the 'pirate deputy envoy' has: the full name of the deputy envoy of the sea lane, the deputy envoy of the sea route who is sentenced to patrol the sea route according to the prosecutor;

It is subordinate to the three provincial-level departments according to the judicial department (1), but it is independent in power and is directly responsible to the imperial court, dealing with coastal defense and other affairs in coastal areas, and is also in charge of trade diplomacy;

If a 'deputy sea route envoy' is established, it will directly replace the functions of the original relevant full-time agency and become a provincial-level coastal defense official with multiple functions and powers.

That's right, Zhang Yanzhi, a black-hearted capitalist, is really dark and bad;

In doing so, he is equivalent to using the Yan family's connections to develop his own connections.

If you are like the Portuguese, it would be good to get the deputy envoy of the sea route and make a special zone for yourself!

Some people want to say that Xiangjiang is too small, the vision is too low, and the eyes should be on the whole country;

Zhang Yanzhi is about to spray immediately: people don't be too greedy, the meal must be eaten in one bite, and the road must be walked step by step:

How can you do big business without a back office?

How can there be a regime without force?

How can we rule without talent?

How can we talk about the whole country without territory?

In other words, in the Ming Dynasty, the legal occupation of Xiangjiang was not greedy enough?

____

(1) Three Divisions: Judicial Division (Provincial High Court), Political Envoy Division (Provincial Imperial Court), and Metropolitan Command Envoy Division (Provincial Military Region);

You see, the 'separation of powers' advocated by the US imperialists in the Ming Dynasty is already being implemented, laugh. (Differences: military power and legislative power) (To be continued.) )

PS: It's on time today, hahaha!
