Chapter 362 - For the General
"Youwei and Zheng Sen both sit down."
He Yu pointed to the chair and motioned for the two to sit down, and then instructed Yu Shan to bring tea to the two.
"The two of you came on the same boat is also fateful, and I recommended you, and you will have to rely on each other when you come to Australia in the future." He Yuyu looked at the two of them earnestly and said.
After all, with Zheng Sen's identity, he will inevitably be reused when he returns to Daming in the future, and he is different, it is difficult to get an official position without fame and family support.
"Thank you for your teaching."
"Instructor, when I first came in, I saw that outside the barracks there were all civilian prisoners, and I didn't know what they would do." Zheng Sen finally asked the doubts in his heart, the young man surnamed Guo actually had a kind heart in his heart, even those humanized outsiders couldn't stand it.
"Those people are dealt with by their own Malacca and Army General Staff, but they are by no means as simple as civilians, what you see may not be real, but what is fake may be true, don't be deceived by what you see in front of you."
He Yu actually wanted to tell Zheng Sen that he couldn't look at the surface of things, many things were by no means as simple as they seemed on the surface, and even more so as a general who commanded the army.
In the future, Zheng Sen will lead 100,000 Zheng family troops, such a powerful force, if you only see the surface and can't see the deep things, you can imagine what will happen.
"So, these people aren't actually civilians in the full sense of the word."
Zheng Sen, who didn't know much about Southeast Asia, asked again. However, He Yu was not disgusted by his questioning. If the policy formulated by the Congress remains unchanged, a big warlord like the Zheng family will definitely not be able to stay in Fujian in the future, and they must be allowed to move out. The best place to do this is Southeast Asia.
Now that the future successor is asking, it doesn't hurt to give him a science popularization.
"The land of Southeast Asia, the rainforest, the indigenous people here are also soldiers, there is no complete boundary between them, once there is a war, almost all the male young people of the tribe go out to fight, which is very similar to the nomadic tribes in the north of the Ming Dynasty."
So if you think of them as civilians. You will definitely be stabbed to death by each other's spears on the battlefield, He Yu put away his smile and said to the two of them very seriously.
"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about the rest. If you have difficulties in Australia, you can find my friends, Zhao Shijie, that is, Mr. Zhao, Zheng Sen, you should know. He will help you. ”
Zhao Shijie is currently in the limelight in the local area. It can be said that people from all walks of life are very face-saving to him, and the quota of the Ministry of Foreign Trade that controls import and export trade is not comparable to others, and how much goods the old Zheng family wants to take from Australia can be said to be directly decided by Zhao Shijie's Ministry of Foreign Trade.
In fact, Zheng Sen will have any trouble when he enters the school to study, but He Yu introduced some Australian magnates to him to get to know and make friends, of course, the smart Zheng Sen also knows.
After thanking He Yu and saying goodbye, Zheng Sen and Fang Kewei left the barracks and prepared to return to the cabin to rest. What he saw and heard today actually shocked the two of them quite a lot.
Knowing that Australia is not what it seems to be peaceful on the surface, especially Fang Youwei. He also saw the strong side of Australia, expanding its territory, the Australian army is so strong, if he wants to return to the Ming Dynasty, he may not be his opponent.
As for what Zheng Sen has learned, it is a little different, for the general, he should not only look at the surface, but also look at the deeper phenomenon to find the problem. The defeat of the Zheng family at the hands of the Australians was not because of weapons, but also because of the big problem of conceptual thinking.
Zheng Sen is not a completely traditional figure, but a young man who can accept new things, and with such thinking, his future progress is unlimited.
At noon the next day, the ship departed on time and headed for the next stop, Batavia, but it was only a short stop here, and it would not stay overnight, and some of the cargo on board would be unloaded and then sailed directly to the port of Manchester City, Australia.
Now that Australia is open, the prosperity of Manchester Port is no longer comparable to that of the Flying Fish Port on Christmas Island, and merchant ships from all over the world can directly reach here, and the route is no longer a secret.
However, there are still fewer merchant ships directly from Daming, after all, the distance between the two places is too far, and the most ships to Manchester Port are still Spanish and Dutch, as for the Portuguese, there are not many Portuguese.
So the ship docked in Batavia for only an hour and a half and headed for Manchester City, and three days later, the ship officially entered the port.
Ke Kewei and Zheng Sen both arrived in Australia for the first time, and when they got off the boat, they could see buildings with oriental characteristics and buildings with red hairy people.
According to immigration regulations, all foreign nationals who want to enter the urban area of Australia must enter the epidemic prevention station for disinfection.
So the two of them inevitably entered the epidemic prevention station, but a little unpleasantness happened during this period.
According to the entry introduction letters of the two of them, they are here to study, so not only will they have to be disinfected in the epidemic prevention station, but their hair will also be shaved, which can make it difficult for the two.
"Parents who have been exposed to the hair and skin of the body, how can you shave it easily, Brother Ming, you say no." Fang Kewei looked at the staff proudly and then said to Zheng Sen, as if he wanted to find an ally.
However, this Zheng Sen is obviously more receptive to new affairs, and in addition, he has learned a certain customs in Australia, so he is a little calm, even if the concept of body hair and skin is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, he still said helplessly to the staff, "Shave it." ”
Seeing that his allies had shaved their hair, Fang Wei, who was in a dilemma, looked at the staff member helplessly, closed his eyes, and motioned for a haircut.
The staff at the epidemic prevention station did not laugh at the two for not cutting their hair, they knew that the two must be new immigrants, so after shaving their hair, they patted them on the shoulder.
"Big brother, don't think about it, this hair will still grow, and if you are thinking about renewing it, no one will stop you."
"Well, thank you for this," Zheng Sen, who had already finished his haircut, thanked the little brother, and then comforted him.
"Brother Expedition is still depressed about shaving his hair, this is not good, since he has arrived in Australia, he has to follow the customs, and the little brother in the person also said, whether it is to continue the hair or keep it for his own convenience in the future, don't worry about this little thing, we are new to Australia, it is a little late today, it is better to go to the city to find an inn to rest, tomorrow we are walking around this Manchester City together."
"Hey, how can the parents of the body hair and skin be easily shaved off, Brother Ming, you say, is this Australian still inheriting the country of the former Song Dynasty, such a saint's words even the country savages know, it is really insulting." (To be continued......)
