The trade route with Myanmar was successfully opened, and the Ayutthaya Dynasty of Myanmar did not dare to be too arrogant to the Ming Dynasty at this time.

In particular, the news brought by the Portuguese to the Burmese showed that the Ming not only defeated and expelled the Spanish and Dutch, but also achieved successive victories in the north. It made the Ayutthaya Dynasty of Burma dare not disobey the trade demands put forward by the Ming Dynasty.

The relationship between the Portuguese and the Ayutthaya Dynasty of Burma is relatively good, the Burmese often hire Portuguese troops to fight, in recent years, the Burmese king has been replaced, but it has been divided a lot, no longer causing trouble, and the whole Myanmar has also shown a stable pattern.

In the face of such a stable situation and a country that is afraid of the Ming Dynasty, it is indeed easy to meet the trade requirements, but the trade with India is in trouble.

The coastal states of India did trade with the Ming Dynasty, and it was quite smooth, but the problem was in the national pattern of India.

Because of the topography, the whole country of India has been divided into more than a dozen federations, each of which has its own independent market, unlike China, which has formed a unified market since ancient times.

It is equivalent to the goods sold to India, which are taxed every time they pass through the federation. Moreover, the Mughal Empire is also in an unprecedented period of prosperity, and once the volume of trade expands, threatening the Indian economy, there will be problems with trade.

In Zhu Youxiao's eyes, India is definitely a huge piece of fat. India has 2.4 billion acres of arable land and a population of at least 150 million, which means that India can provide a large number of industrial raw materials and commodity markets to Daming, and wants to go straight to India for a long time. In the end, only force can be used.

It's just that the current Ming obviously doesn't have the energy to engage in India. There are also times when there are not so many commodities that a large external market is needed.

This year, Japan's trade in Nabian was already in trouble. As Japan began to restrict the outflow of precious metals, the seventh year of the Apocalypse restricted the import of some goods.

After receiving the report, Zhu Youxiao finally decided to take action against Japan, and all kinds of signs show that Japan is not only restricting the market at this time, but is also ready to make a move against Zhendong Province.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since the Tokugawa shogunate is not willing to do good business with us, it is better to trade with the Sendai Domain of Japan. And give them some military assistance, let them wrestle with the Tokugawa shogunate, and then our Ming Dynasty will mediate and reap the benefits of the fisherman. Yang Guorui suggested to Zhu Youxiao.

"That's a good idea, it's accurate." Zhu Youxiao nodded in agreement, and Yang Guorui immediately went to arrange, and now Daming's foreign policy is basically linked to business.

What the Ming Dynasty needs is to seize overseas interests, and the Japanese Tokugawa shogunate is idle at this time, and the Ming Dynasty goods are indeed having their own troubles. After all, in recent years, the number of Daming goods pouring into the Japanese market has been increasing. It has already had a severe impact on the Japanese economy. The problem for Japan is not only the outflow of precious metals, but also the massive unemployment of handicraft workers. In addition, natural disasters began to occur frequently in Japan at this time, and it was very normal for the Tokugawa shogunate to make such a move.

But the dead friends don't die in the poor, Zhu Youxiao doesn't care about the situation in Little Japan, anyway, the commodity market in Little Japan is going to be decided, and if the market is not opened, it will be fought until they open up.

It's just that for the time being, I don't want to send troops directly to Japan, so I will first support the Sendai Domain and the Tokugawa Shogunate to wrestle their wrists and see the effect. If the effect is mediocre, then the only way to do this is to directly use force, or to completely block and sanction the entire Japan.

Japan is indeed a bit of a chicken feeling for the Ming Dynasty. There is a lot of interest in the commodity market, but it is also not very big. On the contrary, Japan's labor force is what the Ming Dynasty needs at present.

Daming is now developing overseas resources everywhere, and the demand for labor is very strong. If we can get a large number of Japanese laborers, the speed of development will be much faster. But when these Japanese laborers were sent to overseas colonies, they were worried that little Japan would not be honest.

So when you think about it, it's really chicken!

However, Zhu Youxiao immediately stopped dwelling, regardless of whether he had ambitions for Little Japan or not, he would make a mess of Little Japan first.

Anyway, as long as the Ming Dynasty rises, Little Japan will not be able to rise in Asia, and when the time comes, Little Japan will only have ambitions that are higher than the sky and whose life is thinner than paper.

But North Korea is very peaceful now, and it's not okay to be restless! The military, political and commercial forces of North Korea have been controlled by the Ming Dynasty, and the entire Korea is now under the colonial rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Commercially, North Korean industry and commerce are in total defeat. The cotton cloth market in its territory has been occupied by Daming's cotton cloth. Various other commodities are not much better, and the steel products are even worse, which is basically completely occupied by the steel products of the Ming Dynasty. A large number of Ming goods poured into North Korea, and a large number of handicraft workers in North Korea lost their jobs, causing a lot of social problems.

However, after all, North Korea was under the indirect rule of the Ming Dynasty, and it was not possible for people to starve to death. Those unemployed Koreans have now become laborers and have gone to work in the Northeast and the South Seas.

There is nothing wrong with these North Korean laborers, and although they are not as hard-working as the local workers, they are not far behind. On top of that, the cost of these North Korean labor is very low, only three silver dollars a month are given, which is half the salary of the workers in the Ming Dynasty.

Even if the wages of these North Korean laborers are about the same as those of the Ming workers, they can still be used. Because most of this money will eventually be earned back by the Ming state-owned capital consortium through consumption, taxation and other channels. Moreover, the development of overseas has a large demand for labor.

Nowadays, it has become a practice for the Ming Dynasty to send a governor to North Korea and station troops in North Korea, and the whole of Korea has become more and more a puppet state under the condition that the Ming state-owned capital consortium has entered in a big way.

North Korea's import and export trade, as well as the commodity market, have been completely controlled by Ming capital. North Korea also borrowed a lot of money from the Daming Central Bank for infrastructure construction, in fact, after the completion of these infrastructure construction, it was more conducive to the commercial plundering of North Korea by Daming capital.

North Korea's land, minerals, forest farms and other resources are also more and more controlled by Daming capital, and basically only enter but do not leave.

The annexation of a large amount of land and the development of mines and forest farms have become the main theme of plundering North Korea.

Every year, North Korea wants the Ming Dynasty to export cotton, minerals, timber, fur, medicinal materials and other commodities, while the Ming Dynasty exports all kinds of value-added industrial commodities to North Korea.

The state-owned capital consortium has made a terrifying profit from the year's maritime trade, reaching hundreds of millions of silver dollars. However, some of the profits are generated directly from the acquisition of gold and silver. Among them, the Portuguese are the main source of the increase in the amount of silver in the Ming Dynasty, and since the Spaniards could not trade directly with the Ming Dynasty, all the oriental goods they needed were handled by the Portuguese.

The silver plundered by the Spaniards from Central and South America was still flowing to the Ming Dynasty in large quantities.

At this time, the sphere of influence of the Ming state-owned capital consortium covered the South Seas, Korea, the Ryukyus, the Indochina Peninsula, and a Japanese region.

In this area, the population is not small, adding up to almost seventy or eighty million people, the commodity market of these seventy or eighty million people, is not fully digested by the Ming Dynasty at present, and now the supply of goods by the Ming Dynasty itself has not been fully satisfied, and the digestion of these external markets is sometimes a little overwhelming, so for the fat meat of India, there is no intention to swallow it in one bite for the time being.

Anyway, let's get in touch first and find out the situation in India before we talk about it. (To be continued.) )
