Recently, good news can be heard every day.

For example, how many poor people the foundation has supported, how many public welfare undertakings have been done, and so on; Either the Republic's finances are improving, and this year it seems expected to reach a new high, and at the same time, the next year's banknote sales will be completely doubled or something; Then there are the two vassal kings outside, how much the sphere of influence has expanded, and how much the population under his command has increased.

With peace at home and no one outside daring to confront the Republic, the infiltration of the Great Wei was further carried out, and it was expected that in three years, the year after the first members of the National Assembly retired, the Great Wei would be able to peacefully evolve and become the territory of the Republic. There is no need for war to obtain the land of China, which is the highest realm of the art of war. In order to show the power of the weapon or something, it should not appear in the civil war.

The Ming Dynasty is busy dealing with the endless gambling industry in the country, which is very profitable, so many smart people are trying to imitate the welfare lottery of the Republic to make profits. However, whether it is Daming or Dashun, it does not have such a strong social monitoring force for the time being, so there is no way to organize the flood of the domestic gambling industry for the time being. At the same time, the two sides are also constantly preparing for war over the territory of Shandong, and civil war is not a strange thing for them.

At most, only the one that dominates the country, one is a small episode.

To sum it up as a common saying, "When you walk, do you pay attention to ants that have trampled to death?" ”

This is true for rulers such as Chongzhen who retain the ideas of the feudal era, and even more so for Dashun, who still retains a very heavy rogue's style. However, the Dashun Dynasty did at least one thing right, and after confirming that the Portuguese forces would no longer come to make trouble, they sent people to recover the ownership of Macau. In fact, it was he who fell in love with the shipbuilding technology and cannon-making skills of the Portuguese. It's just that what he doesn't know is that Portugal doesn't produce guns and artillery, they just buy these things in Italy and other places, and then buy them here in China for profit. But after dealing with these things for so long, it's not a problem to imitate them.

It's just that it is really necessary to imitate the guns and artillery that are clearly lagging behind the republic?

Or is it just the research ability of Portuguese technicians that Li Zicheng values? At least, Zhang Hongbin, who got this information, was puzzled.

It's a pity that he originally planned to send troops to take Macau by himself.

Then again, Li Zicheng may have known this possibility, so he simply took Macao ahead of schedule to save the Republic of China from inserting a nail in the border of Guangdong, right? But according to the saying of this era, isn't Hainan Island also under the jurisdiction of Guangdong?!

Originally, it was calm, and Zhang Hongbin also waited for the finance of Daming and Dashun to be infiltrated by banknotes, and even forced them to issue banknotes as well. Then, step by step, they controlled their finances, and finally forced them step by step, choosing to keep getting closer to themselves, carrying out in-depth reforms on their own, and finally being completely assimilated and digested by the republic.

Unless he was forced to do so, Zhang Hongbin didn't want to swing the butcher's knife on his own heads.

However, to outsiders, it is possible!

The Portuguese in Macao were driven away, and they took the few remaining sea vessels, first to the South Seas, and then to find a way back to India. It still belongs to the Portuguese for the time being, and Zhang Hongbin does not have the energy and strength to take down this predetermined territory.

But they took one thing with them, and it was only when they left Myanmar that it was passed to Zhang Hongbin by a special intelligence system.

At the time of their departure, it seemed that a lot of tea seeds were purchased everywhere. Zhang Liu thought it was strange, so he reported the matter, but perhaps in his opinion, it was not interesting to report this kind of thing. Such a stubborn attitude made the news come to Zhang Hongbin's imperial case a lot later.

Zhang Hongbin realized the problem as soon as he saw this information, and these Portuguese planned to support tea planting in other places. In fact, tea in later generations is no longer exclusive to China, and is cultivated in many East Asian regions.

Even in order to reduce the transportation distance of tea, the British deliberately tried to successfully plant in India, so that Indian black tea seized the tea market in China for a period of time. What's more, the bastard of India in later generations is still doing everything possible to shamelessly say that he is the origin of tea.

Not only that, in later generations, Japan introduced silkworm seeds in China and distributed raw silk in large quantities, and the national economy depended on the export of raw silk to maintain a large extent. Huaxia is really benevolent, others have their own exclusive things, and they smile and let the other party take more, otherwise they will not be able to show their own etiquette.

The American capitalists, especially the Rockefeller consortium, knew that they wanted to monopolize the oil industry, but the generation ruined by distorted Confucian scholarship was guilty of the second thing.

Even, under the triumphant smile of others, they still feel that the other party is infinitely grateful for their generosity in their hearts, right?

Such a thing, put it on Zhang Hongbin's body, can you bear it?

Someone once said: "Clear wear does not rebel, chrysanthemum set electric drill". So for Zhang Hongbin, it is: "If China is not overlord for a day, it is in vain to cross over." ”

The next day, Zhang Hongbin sent spies and even the navy to chase after the fleeing Portuguese fleet, hoping to recover the seeds before they could send them to India. However, Zhang Liu told him very panickedly: "According to the speed and time, the other party should have brought the seeds to India." ”

At that moment, Zhang Hongbin really wanted to give Zhang Liu a kick directly. But forget it, people in this era still have zài limitations in their vision...... No wonder.

"You can inform the whole territory of China that the products of my China can only be produced by my China. Whether it is tea or silkworm seeds, this original product is not allowed to fall into anyone's hands! Anyone who dares to give the original seed or sample to a foreign country shall be convicted of traitor from now on...... The Three Clans! Inform Da Shun and Da Ming, and of course Da Wei, don't try to challenge my bottom line. Zhang Hongbin waved his hand and announced to Zhang Liu.

Zhang Liu went down to arrange it as soon as possible, and the next day the "Daily" began to announce a large number of this matter, and many people were puzzled for a while.

Why, would His Majesty the Emperor value these things so much?

The Congress also has such questions, so it hopes that Zhang Hongbin will give an accurate reason. They won't stop this order, because it's for the good of China and everyone can see it, but as a state of etiquette in China, is it really good to be like a miser? They need a reason to reassure them.

Zhang Hongbin didn't care, he came directly to the Congress, no, he brought everyone directly to the square from the Congress.

This is not an explanation to the people of Congress, but a rhythm of interpretation to the Republic, and even to the whole world......
