Zhang Tie's idea is very good, but he can't do anything about it.

Because of the promotion of Zhao Hongyu's administrative level, it depends on whether it can achieve the satisfaction of the virtual trading system.

No matter who they are, there is no way to do this.

If Zhao Hongyu wants to be promoted to the administrative level of county magistrate, he needs to have a large number of Chinese people under his command. Even after three years, it's still a little bit close.

Now that it's another winter, there's no hope for this year.

Therefore, Zhang Tie lost this mind.

In fact, Zhang Tie also very much hopes that Zhao Hongyu's administrative level can be improved, and then bring them new changes and new development opportunities.

However, with the development of cities on the side of the American Empire, the amount of capital required was too great for the increase in population to be able to achieve such explosive growth.

Therefore, Zhang Tie could only wait patiently.

Earlier, Song Hu and Professor Liu sent him a message, telling him that Ontario's development momentum is very good.

The shipyard plan that Song Hu planned two years ago has now been basically completed and has begun to put into production.

It will only take a year, that is, this time next winter, then the Song Empire will have 600 copycat Dutch-style ocean-going commercial warships at one time, and 120 giant battleships like the Sea King.

At that time, the waters of the Song Empire will be completely able to be patrolled by its own domestically produced warships.

Moreover, even if there is a naval battle and is heavily damaged, the empire can be replenished in a short time.

According to Song Hu's prediction, as long as they are given five or ten years, then the Song Empire will become the hegemon of the sea. And in this era, there will be no other forces that can compete with them at sea.

Because according to the speed of shipbuilding on the Ontario side, more than 700 warships can be built in a year. This is already a very remarkable thing.

According to Song Hu's calculations, in ten years, the Song Empire will have more than 7,000 warships that are completely used for naval warfare, which is definitely an awe-inspiring maritime force.

It is important to know that the shipyards of the Song Empire were not just in Ontario. Manhattan also has more than 200 shipyards of its own. There are also more than 200 shipyards in Quebec in the north, and even in the west on the Wangshan side, the construction of shipyards has begun.

Therefore, ten years later, the Song Empire will definitely have more than 7,000 warships, which will definitely be more than that.

It's just that it's not the same as Ontario City. Not all of the shipyards in Manhattan and Quebec were used to build warships, half of which were built with large ocean-going fishing vessels.

After all, now for the Song Empire, the abundant fishery resources on the eastern coast of the Americas are also a channel for them to earn money from the virtual world.

So, how could Zhang Tie give up.

Relative to Manhattan and Ontario City, Quebec's main development is agriculture.

Hence the development of Quebec. On the contrary, it is not as fast as Ontario City or Manhattan City. However, because Quebec developed agriculture and cultivated large tracts of farmland, Quebec became the granary of the Song Empire.

Basically, Quebec's grains and vegetables. The surplus was sold to the virtual world realm. And because of the pollution-free and additives and pesticides, these grains and vegetables are selling very well.

As a result, the Song Empire's current trade with the virtual world depends entirely on Ontario's coal resources and Quebec's agriculture. and Manhattan's gold mines and fishery resources to support it.

However, Zhang Tie and Song Hu, as well as Professor Liu, felt that the minerals of the Americas were being exchanged for the funds they needed for development. It's just a temporary stopgap for now.

If they can, they want to find another way to make a profit.

After all, the resources of the American continent should not be left to their children and grandchildren if they are not developed now.

It's just that for the current Song Empire, they don't have that much strength to carry out this matter.

Fortunately, just by virtue of the current trade, it can already be exchanged for the development needs of the Song Empire.

Wang Shan arrived in San Francisco on the west coast and began to exploit the rich gold resources there, which greatly eased the pressure on the Ontario coal side.

At the same time, the news that Australia had been discovered and stationed in Manhattan was also transmitted back to Manhattan.

Therefore, Zhang Tie wrote to Song Hu and Professor Liu and expressed his views on them.

That is, if the conditions are ripe or allowed, the empire can use destructive mining methods to plunder Australia's resources and use Australia to develop itself.

Zhang Tie was confident that after the empire developed in twenty years, what kind of large machinery could be used, the empire could completely exploit Australia's resources in a hundred years.

When the time comes, Australia, which has exhausted its resources, can also sell it to the Arabs for a profit.

After all, compared to the sandy Arabs, the climate in Australia is definitely a paradise.

Even, Australia can be exchanged for desert land in the Middle East.

In this way, at a very small price, it can be exchanged for the Middle East with rich oil resources for the empire, and this transaction is definitely a good deal.

Regarding Zhang Tie's bad idea, Song Hu and Professor Liu complained and expressed their support very much.

It's just that with the strength of the Song Empire, there is no way to estimate the resources of Australia. Therefore, we can only temporarily garrison and occupy this territory, and wait until the strength is enough.

But no matter what, this tone has been set by Zhang Tie and Song Hu.

Because Zhao Hongyu went to the East, the main decisions of the Song Empire now are made by Song Hu, Zhang Tie and Professor Liu.

But even if Zhao Hongyu knew it, he wouldn't refuse this proposal and plan it, wouldn't he?

Anyway, the Song Empire and himself don't suffer, it's others who suffer, right.

In short, even if Zhao Hongyu is not there, there is no mistake in the operation of the Song Empire, but it is still thriving and developing very well.

For all this. Zhang Tie was still very satisfied.

"Is there any news from His Highness lately?"

Zhang Tie, as usual, wandered around the wharf, looked at the black slaves who were sold to the Americas by Arab merchants, and then looked at the European people who came here on ocean-going merchant ships to beg for a living, and after eating a bowl of small horse-drawn noodles near the wharf, he came to his office with a happy mood.

The secretary replied, "Yes, there was a ship from San Francisco early this morning, and the people on board brought back news from His Highness the East. ”

When Zhang Tie heard this, he immediately said: "Hurry up and report to me, Your Highness has been gone for such a long time." I guess everything went well with him. Let's hope nothing dangerous happens, he's our backbone. ”

The reason why Zhang Tie was so nervous about Zhao Hongyu's side was that he was worried that his Royal Highness would encounter some big trouble in the East. Especially when Wang Shan sent back the news from San Francisco, saying that when Zhao Hongyu left, he left 12,000 troops in San Francisco, Zhang Tie's worry has never been put down.

Of course, Zhang Tie also understood why Zhao Hongyu would do this. After all, the Indians in the San Francisco area at that time were fighting large inter-tribal wars.

In order to let Wang Shan have enough strength to cope with everything. At the same time, he ensured his development in the San Francisco area, so Zhao Hongyu decided to leave the army under his command to Wang Shan.

It was precisely because Zhao Hongyu made such a correct decision at that time that Wang Shan relied on his strong military strength. Settled in the San Francisco area and began urban planning, construction and development.

If there were no troops of 12,000 people, although Wang Shan could also develop, the momentum would not be so good.

And those Indians in the San Francisco area are precisely because they have seen the power of Wang Shan and his army. Only then did they become vassal tribes under their command, so that Wang Shan was like a tiger with wings.

After the secretary heard the news that he wanted to know about the East, he hurriedly went to the confidential room. took the news file sent back by Zhao Hongyu.

Then the secretary told him all the above news.

After listening to the secretary talk about the news from Zhao Hongyu's side, Zhang Tie waved his hand and asked the secretary to retreat.

When the secretary left the office, a worried look appeared on Zhang Tie's face.

In this news, Zhao Hongyu did not hide anything about what he did in the East. For example, everything he did in the Wa Kingdom, and the plan to control Kyushu in his own hands.

At that time, when the news was passed back, Zhao Hongyu had just shelled the commercial town of Osaka, and he had not yet experienced the siege of Osaka Castle.

And when Zhang Tie now knew the news, Zhao Hongyu had already signed an alliance with the Japanese side of the city, and forced the Japanese to cede Kyushu, and at the same time, Zhao Hongyu himself personally led the army and began a military operation against Kyushu.

After all, the information transmission in this era cannot be as developed as another time and space, for example, Zhang Tie was able to get Zhao Hongyu's news in two months, which can be regarded as very fast.

In this era, it would take at least half a year to nine months for these people from the British colonies in the Americas to send news back to Britain.

Therefore, in such a comparison, the speed of information transmission on Zhao Hongyu's side is already very good.

However, Zhang Tie also understands this truth, which is why he is so worried.

The secretary had made it very clear just now that the news had arrived in the morning by a ship from San Francisco.

And when this news was sent, it was not a short time now.

During this period of news transmission, can His Highness who is far away in the east be able to deal with the Japanese people?

Although His Highness's plan is very good, it seems that the Japanese people are not so easy to deal with.

Besides, when His Highness left San Francisco, he also said that the army of 12,000 people was left behind and handed over to Wang Shan, so there was no land combat strength on his side, except for the navy and Emma's Indian guards, as well as the European clothed slave cavalry of 300 people, and the dozens of European knight guards around Sarah.

Of course, those genetic sailors in His Highness's fleet can also draw a group of people to form an army.

However, even if these people are drawn out, how many people can there be?

What's more, His Royal Highness wants the Japanese to cede Kyushu, which is not a trivial matter.

With the temperament of the Japanese people, they will definitely not agree to this matter, and at the same time it will cause great hostility.

Therefore, war will definitely break out.

There are only a few people around His Highness, in case he can't handle it...... It was precisely because Zhang Tie thought of these that he had a worried look.

At this time, Zhang Tie didn't know that his Royal Highness had not only broken out a conflict with the Japanese people, but also captured the emperor and shogun of the Japanese people, and at the same time really forced the Japanese court to cede Kyushu.

It's just that the daimyo in Kyushu don't want to give up everything they have now. Therefore, in order to protect their own interests, they have already broken out a big war with their own highness in Kyushu.

In this conquest battle in Kyushu, Zhao Hongyu defeated the 150,000 troops combined by the 13 daimyos of Kyushu with a disadvantage of less than 10,000 troops.

At this moment, Zhao Hongyu had already taken the opportunity to make the thirteen daimyos of Kyushu suffer a lot of vitality and start the battle of conquest of Kyushu.

Moreover, now the attack momentum on Zhao Hongyu's side is very good, as long as Kyushu will fall after a while.

For all this, because of the distance and the backwardness of communication, it is impossible for Zhang Tie to know the Tao.

His brows furrowed tightly, and he complained a little about Zhao Hongyu in his heart.

He thought to himself, this His Highness is really uneasy.

You said that you are such a precious person, how can you have a hard encounter with such a dick as a widow.

If something happens, there will be no tears to cry and no place to regret.

Although Zhang Tie complained in his heart, he had no way to deal with it.

After all, he himself is now on the American side, and he can't do anything about the East side.

Therefore, he walked around the office a few times with some anxiety, and finally stopped in front of the map of the world that was posted on the wall in the office.

Zhang Tie looked up at this map of the World Continent that he had purchased from the Virtual World Realm, and it took a long time.

I saw his eyes flickering, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart at this moment.

However, following his gaze, you can see that Zhang Tie's gaze on the map of the world has been wandering between Australia and Southeast Asia.

Your Highness, Your Highness, I hope nothing will happen to you.

If something goes wrong, what do we do?

Maybe I should do something about it.

In the end, Zhang Tie's eyes were fixed on the Southeast Asian islands in the northwest of Australia...... (To be continued......)
