Just when Parma discovered the Iroquois gathering point and lured its 3,000 remaining troops into the ambush circle, Zhao Hongyu, Emma and Sierra had already returned to Manhattan with more than 400 subordinates.

At this time, Zhao Hongyu and the others have been away from Manhattan for more than a month.

Now when she returned, Emma became excited to see the lively crowd on the street.

Children, they must like to be lively.

Sarah, on the other hand, looked around curiously, for her everything in Manhattan was so new and curious.

Clean cities, well-behaved streets, happy smiles on people's faces, and no of the numbness and despair of European city dwellers.

Even in the city of Manhattan, Sara didn't see a single beggar.

This had to surprise Sarah.

Dressed in a red cloth that looks like a large pineapple, and carrying jǐng sticks around their waists, they patrol in groups of eight, and some vendors who have not rented suitable storefronts peddle their wares on the streets.

In this city, Indians, white Europeans, blacks, people with black hair and black eyes live in harmony, and everything seems so harmonious.

There were also Indians living in Quebec, but the whites there looked down on them.

But this sentiment is not present in Manhattan.

Sara fell in love with the city at once, and yes, she loved the vibe of the city very much.

"The streets of the city are so clean."

Sara exclaimed.

Zhao Hongyu smiled and said: "Of course, we pay a lot of attention to the city's sanitation construction." Winter is not yet there, but when it comes to chūn days and summer, if you are not careful, it will bring diseases and epidemics. For the sake of everyone's health, I also had to work hygiene. ”

Subsequently, Zhao Hongyu told Sara about the planning and construction of urban sanitation.

Anyway, it's not a secret, and it doesn't matter if I talk to her.

Sara listened to Zhao Hongyu's narration quietly, and her heart continued to follow Zhao Hongyu's words and the waves were overflowing.

Emma sat on her horse heartlessly. chatting with his maids.

The Indians, both men and women, who passed by on the street, would stop when they saw Emma and bow to her, not caring if Emma saw it or not.

It can be seen that Emma, the 'mascot' who represents the interests of the Indians, still has a very high status in the hearts of the Manhattan Indians.

Because these Indians all know that the reason why they can be so easily accepted by Zhao Hongyu's 'empire' and let them live happily is entirely because of Emma's existence.

For their happiness. Emma will marry Zhao Hongyu at this time.

Of course, the reason why the Indians have such thoughts and concepts is also related to the spread of some information by the Mohicans and the promotion of people from the Imperial intelligence services.

For the Mohicans and Imperial Intelligence, it was still the right idea to make the Indians grateful to Emma.

At the same time, in the future, Zhao Hongyu and Emma have children, this little guy with Chinese and Indian blood, if he takes over the empire, the Indians will not object.

Zhao Hongyu told Sara about the sanitation construction of his city and the planning. As soon as the conversation changed, he began to talk about the goods he had here, which made Sara shake even more.

"Yu, since you have so many goods. Why don't you build your own fleet? You should know that if you build your own fleet, you can make more profits. Instead of just making a small fraction of the money as it is now. Women are like this, Sara already has a ** relationship with Zhao Hongyu, and was also promised an identity by Zhao Hongyu himself, and even Emma recognized her.

So now Sara has begun to enter the corner sè and substitute herself as a member of Manhattan.

And in Sarah's opinion. This little man of his own did this business at a very loss. A lot of the profits were made by the merchants, which was intolerable.

How could Sara not know about these goods of her little man. How much profit can be brought by selling to the land and sea area, but the more she knows, the more Sara is worthless for her little man.

What a loss.

Now that he has become a member of this family, he has to think about it for the sake of this family.

Therefore, Sara said the above words to Zhao Hongyu.

"Yu, the company of the royal family and the military department, don't you also have shares. And there are sea ships under the company, why don't you do your own trade, so that the profits will not be made by those greedy guys. ”

Sara didn't understand that.

Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu smiled bitterly.

Honestly, he didn't know what Sara was talking about.

Not only he knows, but Wang Shan, Song Hu, and Zhang Tie all understand.

But now, with only the few ships Manhattan has, it is unrealistic to want to trade.

At this time, the total number of ships at sea in various European countries was almost 30,000 or 40,000.

And there are only a few Manhattans.

There's no way to compete with others.

Especially when there are so many pirates on the sea, Zhao Hongyu doesn't want to be a big fat sheep for others.

Besides, the waters of Manhattan also need ships to defend them, and he has so many ships there to do trade.

So, Zhao Hongyu said to Sarah: "I also want to do trade, but I don't have enough ships on hand." Otherwise, I wouldn't have made such a huge profit for those guys, but I really can't help it right now. Zhao Hongyu made a small explanation of the current situation in Manhattan with a bitter face to Sarah.

The army here in Manhattan is strong, but the navy is ...... Hey, then don't say it.

This time, Sara understood.

"I'm about to buy a boat from Europe, but I don't think it's big. I have heard that the eyes of European countries are on the sea, and shipyard orders in all countries are scheduled for three years later. ”

Thinking of the conversation between himself and Jubert, Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Today, the shipyards under the umbrella company cannot build large ships, and they cannot buy ships. This made Zhao Hongyu very unhappy and made him very helpless.

Originally, there was a space-time trader, but the problem was that the space-time trader couldn't buy a boat there, not even a small fishing boat. Because the place he controls in the Metaverse is in a small inland village, the system can't determine it.

"It's a pity that these porcelain, tea and spices are very sought-after goods in all countries of the earthly sea. It was even more valuable if it was sold to Alexandria, Egypt. After all, she had just come from Europe, and Sara knew a lot about it.

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "You're right, those seas have been raised by us now." But give me some time, and when the shipyards under the umbrella company can build big ships, we'll take the trade back into our own hands. ”

After chatting with Sara for a while, Zhao Hongyu asked Emma to take Sara back to the castle and arrange a room for Sara by the way.

And he himself took Wang Shan to the military headquarters to see Song Hu, and at the same time asked Wang Shan to bring Zhang Tiezhao over.

After about an hour, the four finally met.

"Your Highness, has this trip gone well?"

When Zhang Tie came to the military headquarters and saw Zhao Hongyu and them, he asked.

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "It's okay, it's not dangerous, everything is going according to the plan." ”

Zhang Tie walked over and did it to Song Hu's side.

Song Hu asked, "Your Highness, now that the Iroquois are estimated to have started a war with the French, I have sent a lot of intelligence officers out, and when the time comes, we can find a suitable time to intervene according to the intelligence." ”

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "This opportunity is very advantageous for us, we can occupy Quebec and the Great Lakes region in one fell swoop." And it is very important for us to destroy two powerful forces so that our north will never encounter an enemy again. ”

According to Zhao Hongyu's plan, after the French and Quebecers were settled, they would occupy a large area of land.

And in this land, there are more abundant natural resources.

When the time comes, they will be free to solve Virginia's problems.

"Your Highness, the borderless land that separates us from Virginia is occupied by the British. According to intelligence, the British sent 10,000 troops on their homeland and landed in large numbers, naming it Pennsylvania. It seems that these British people have bad intentions. ”

Wang Hu suddenly said the news from the British side.

"Oh, there's such a thing." , Wang Hu's information made Zhao Hongyu stunned. As Song Hu said, he also felt that the British didn't have any good ideas.

After thinking about it, Zhao Hongyu said to Song Hu: "Don't worry about them for the time being, now we have to deal with the French and Iroquois with all our might, and only after solving these two forces that we have no worries about can we turn our heads and deal with the British." ”

Song Hu nodded and stopped making a sound.

Wang Shan said at this time: "When all the surrounding forces are resolved, we can develop to the west." At that point, we will be able to bring Canada and the United States into the empire, which is a big territory. ”

When he said this, Wang Shan's eyes flashed with jīng light.

Song Hu and Zhang Tie also looked excited.

"Hehe, by the time we have consolidated the empire's territory, this process may take about ten years. When the time comes, we can move south and finish off the Spaniards and the Dutch in South America. The entire American continent will be ours. ”

Ten years?

Zhang Tie pursed his lips: "Maybe it won't take ten years, after all, our Highness has an artifact in hand." ”
