vs 216 Wang Yang's allegiance
The greatest chieftains of Little Luzon did not dare to say anything, and made a new set of silk clothes for each of his women. They are chiefs, and the materials they exchange with the Ming do not mean that they belong to them personally.
It should belong to an entire tribe or a city-state.
A leader of the troops guarding the docks is much richer than them, but he is still poor.
"What about the general?"
Wang Yangxin said that you finally had a reaction, and immediately said: "Remember the other day, the fleet with hundreds of ships on the sea? The great general gave this fleet thirty loads of silk every day. It's every day. ”
Thirty quintals a day, a month is a thousand quintals of silk, is the people of the Ming Dynasty rich, or the people of Luzon are too poor.
"You used to be from over there, what good ideas do you have."
Wang Yang shook his head: "I don't count, my ancestors are from the Yuan Dynasty." The Ming Dynasty was a new dynasty that defeated the Yuan Dynasty and was stronger than the Yuan Dynasty. I can only say that it is the Han people of the Central Plains, the same root. But it has nothing to do with Daming anymore. In fact, in the eyes of the Ming people, I am also an outsider. ”
Wang Yang deliberately emphasized that this sentence is indeed meaningful.
"I don't know, how to become Daming's own person. Is it possible to have hundreds of loads of silk, or even thousands of loads? "The chieftain of Moron is concerned about this.
"It's hard to say."
"Think about it, what a good way to do it. Let's become human beings too? Many chiefs asked this.
Wang Yang still shook his head, in fact, he already had an idea in his heart, but it was impossible to say it immediately. So he took a step back: "I think it's better to be like this, please ask Bai Gongzi to give us some boats, and we will borrow these boats to control Luzon, Misha, and Medan." Then you can give a gift, or you can leave a part for yourself. ”
The faces of several chiefs were visibly unnatural.
What is the benefit in their hearts? Do you want to give to others?
Wang Yang sneered in his heart, just rely on you greedy fools, but Wang Yang saw an opportunity in the eyes of a young man behind Chief Molong. Immediately changed the subject: "It seems to be off topic, this time I want to say that Sulu in Medan is farther than us." But the price of coconut fruit is the same, and this matter always has to be solved. ”
The big chiefs didn't speak, still thinking about how to get greater benefits for themselves.
Since he couldn't talk about it anymore, Wang Yang had no choice but to say that he would continue to talk tomorrow.
Back at his residence, Wang Yang was also thinking. He understood that the white crane reached out here, and that Little Luzon simply did not have a kingdom in the true sense of the word, to ten times. A hundredfold number of troops was dispatched once, just because there were people in Sulu who founded the country, and from here the ocean can feel that the white crane has ambitions here.
I say that I am from the Yuan Dynasty, but in fact I am also from the Ming Dynasty, and my heart is still towards the Ming Dynasty.
Wang Yang was thinking about how to further lure these chiefs who didn't know anything, there were not a few people from the Central Plains here, and these people were easy to unite. But how to act needs to be further pondered.
While Wang Yang was thinking, there was a dense sound of footsteps outside. Then someone burst into their house.
A steel knife, this knife is still Da Ming's knife, but the person holding the knife is the young man who was sitting on the side of Chief Mo Long just now.
"Mr. Wang Yang, this is the sincerity of my Molong tribe." A human head was placed in front of Wang Yang, and the human head of Chief Mo Long, his eyes were still open. The blood has not yet clotted.
Wang Yang didn't speak, and the young man spoke: "From today onwards, my name will be Mo Long." I already have the support of several elders, and there are no more chiefs in our tribe. I, Mo Long, have read the books of the Ming Dynasty, and a thousand years ago there was an identity called a retainer. I, Mo Long, am willing to start from a family. ”
Amazing, ruthless, and decisive, a man more ruthless than a wolf.
Just as Wang Yang was thinking, a few more people came in outside, all young people.
"Mr. Wang Yang, the three chiefs have all been replaced, and the seventeen chiefs around Manila Port will all be replaced before dawn tomorrow. Now, please tell me how you can have more wealth and more power. There is no way for people who are too greedy to survive, and there is no reward if they don't give. ”
From the current situation, could it be that this Mo Long has already controlled the form?
Could it be that as soon as the Ming people came here, there was already civil strife in Little Luzon.
"Seeing Bai Gongzi, you need a reason, including this!" Wang Yang pointed to the human head on the ground.
Moron replied, "The reason is simple, he has taken the proceeds of the transaction for his own and has not distributed them to the tribesmen. Several elders asked for it, but he did not assign it. The hundred quintals of silk were originally supposed to be divided into the Baguio chieftains, but because the Baguio chiefs were young, he and the other two big chiefs swallowed the silks. ”
Good reason, good excuse, it's just whether it's true or not.
From the eyes of a half-grown child beside Mo Long who was only a teenager but had chieftain ornaments, Wang Yang felt that this matter was believable.
"In that case, I'll go and ask to see Bai Gongzi, and you can deal with the matter of the dock. The loading of goods cannot be stopped, and the transportation of coconut fruit and abaca in various places cannot be heard. Chief Mo Long is waiting for my news, if Bai Gongzi is willing to see you, it will definitely be a good thing. Wang Yang thought about it again and again, and also thought that this matter was a good thing for Daming no matter what.
In fact, Wang Yang really found a problem for Bai Minghe.
Not to mention the white crane, even Xing'an can't eat dinner.
I can't help but admit that now is indeed a good opportunity. A good opportunity to reach out here, but this qiē came too quickly. It's so fast that people don't have to be prepared for it.
"What do you think?" Xing'an thought about it for a long time, but he didn't come up with an idea.
"Dilemma!"
"Shira-naa, there's no dilemma in this matter, you have to make a choice. If you dare to go to the South Seas and send troops, you must have a decision and a solution to this kind of thing. "Xing'an will never let the white crane be muddy at this time.
Bai Minghe sighed: "Pick it up, I'm afraid of falling notoriety here." Who dares to be smart, so it's easy to be suspected that I'm ambitious, and it's clear that I'm going to annex this place. This is not the main one, at most ruthless. Kill more smart people. The most terrible thing is in the court, accepting retainers and building private soldiers, this is an absolute taboo, without the permission of Long Live Grace, this matter will be passed this time. It's hard to guarantee that it won't be a knife hanging over my white crane's head in the future. ”
Xing'an nodded approvingly, Bai Minghe was indeed calm enough.
"If you don't pick it up, there are more disadvantages. It will affect the supply of goods here now, unless I raise an army to destroy this place. But after the war, do I have enough people to collect those coconuts, and abaca? Obviously, this Wang Yang wants to make a contribution to me, and it also proves that he cares about the Ming Dynasty and is still from our Central Plains in his bones. ”
"It chills people's hearts. But it's taboo! Xing'an added.
"After much thought, I decided to take it. not only received, but also gave him 500 materials to 1,000 materials and 100 sea ships. At present, the sailor sea ship no longer uses five hundred materials, and the number of these ships is not small, originally I thought it was used as a transport ship to and from the capital, but now I will call it first, and eight hundred sea ships will be built in two months. Just open more shipyards. ”
"Bai Minghe, the miscellaneous family really can't underestimate you." Xing'an was very satisfied with Bai Minghe's statement.
Then. Xing'an said again: "You are a member of the royal family, and you accept retainers on behalf of the royal family." There is no fault with this reason! ”
"What a good idea!" Shirana Crane smiled, smiling very happily.
Bai Minghe found Deng Hailong to discuss again, Deng Hailong can fight, but he can't play with his heart. But Deng Hailong also has his own strengths: "It's okay to give them boats, but these boats can't be wasted." An adjutant is assigned on each ship. All the shipwrights are being transferred from the Fujian Metropolitan Division, and another 1,000 skilled shipwrights are being dispersed to these ships. ”
"So, how do you use it?"
"Suppress the forces around here, and then gather all the supplies in Manila. There is no time to hesitate, build a raw material mill here, and the rough processing of all raw materials will be changed here, so as to reduce the number of shipping materials and increase the transportation capacity. Deng Hailong talked about strategy.
Xing'an also added: "When the miscellaneous family was in Fuzhou, I saw a businessman, but he was a hard-working and capable person. Recruit him to come and build a palm mat workshop here, just this coconut skin is the best profit! ”
At this time, Bai Minghe muttered: "I want to go back to Guangzhou City." ”
"If you can put it down, just go back." Deng Hailong smiled and replied.
Bai Minghe was helpless, he knew very well that he couldn't go up now. The matter here has not been decided, and it is absolutely impossible to return to Guangzhou City lightly, and the shape here is getting better and better, and there is more and more need to worry about it.
It was evening, and Shirana Crane wrote more than a dozen letters. Twelve of them were to be sent to the capital. One was a letter to Sun Yuanjun, but he didn't mention the princess's golden scroll, only saying that he was very busy and would return to Guangzhou City later. There are also three letters for the two merchant gangs in Guangdong and Fujian, and the last letter is for the head of the bank.
The next day, Bai Minghe met Wang Yang and Mo Long on his Great White Shark.
Mo Long could speak some Chinese, but it was not accurate, and Wang Yang temporarily made an interpreter and sat between the two.
"Mo Long, this son is a member of the Ming royal family. You can't accept retainers privately, but you can collect vassals on behalf of the royal family. My imperial brother is the current Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and you, as a courtier, are naturally the courtiers of the imperial brother. "The white crane has already regarded himself as a royal family.
The frightened face of Deng Hailong, who was accompanying him, turned white, and this white crane dared to say anything.
But it's not right to think about it together. Bai Minghe has not gone crazy enough to do this, and the governor of Dongchang Xing'an is listening in the dark room next to him, if Bai Minghe is disrespectful, he doesn't have to wait for the capital to react. Now Hung Yen will take down the white crane.
Xing'an didn't move, which proved that Bai Minghe's words were true.
But why does the white crane call Banzai the imperial brother, what is the reason, it is very strange.
Wang Yang also explained the meaning of the white crane to Mo Long in the local language on the side, and Wang Yang was also secretly surprised in his heart, this white crane really came from a lot of background, and it turned out to be the Ming royal family.
Mo Long was ecstatic, he already knew what the Ming Emperor represented? It was a big man who was angry and bloody. (To be continued......)
