Chapter 953: Mayflower
"Twenty years is enough time for us to do a lot. We want to let China's own liliang create a more brilliant civilization in the New World with the Indians, Mayans, Incas, and Maori! ”
Akon and the book demon looked at each other and smiled, they knew that this was Zhang Fan's beautiful idea. Although the colonists of the Ming Empire would crowd out the European colonists, who can guarantee that the colonists from China would be kinder. It can be said that it is not very easy for the emperor of the Ming Empire to send a colonial fleet. However, with the concept of the Chinese emperor that 'the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king', he may really treat these local natives with a gentle policy.
But any colonization requires a strong national strength, as well as a stronger navy! I am afraid that these two points will not be easy for China, which is closed off from the rest of the country. Then this important task will fall to Zhang Fan's team, build a base with an industrial base, and build a powerful fleet that will be feared by the European powers!
But all this did not happen overnight, so in the early stage, we used the team's popularity and goodwill in the UK to balance the major shili, and on the basis of not attracting attention, secretly developed productivity and improved our own strength! But what's there to worry about? The United States of America, later known as the first superpower, was founded on a three-masted immigrant galleon called the Mayflower!
Now Zhang Fan's team has such a 'Mayflower', which is specially named after a three-masted sailing ship of similar tonnage in order to cater to history. Judging by the experience of the Pelicans being accepted by Drake, such an approach can indeed be recognized by history. But now the question is whether the 'Mayflower' will go to Plymouth Harbour in England or to mainland China.
Under the consultation of the three of them, the "Mayflower" still went to Plymouth Harbor to accept Protestant immigrants to North America, and perhaps a group of American founders were born in the team's planning, so that the team became the promoter of history and was recognized by the historical scene. However, there will also be a larger fleet that will go to mainland China, so that the Chinese who cannot survive in the Ming Empire, or who want to go to the new shijie, will come to the same continent! It is equally important to inherit history and to change it.
"We went to England first, and informed the Queen of England of the great geographical discoveries of this voyage, so that she could reward and support us. The attack on Hawkins' fleet will surely impress her. And will definitely support us in the confrontation with Spain too! And give us great policy preferences and other benefits, at least it shouldn't be worse than after Drake travels around Shijie! To bring some benefits to England, up and down, Elizabeth I, an old virgin, is a money lover, and she is very financially strapped right now. Akon began to lay out the task, "After I come back, I will fly to the Chinese mainland with the book demon and ask the Ming Emperor for an explanation." We are going to open up territory for China abroad, and we have to return to China to help annihilate the pirates and pirates, at least we can't let us do it in vain! ”
Zhang Fan nodded and asked, "Then what should I do here in Panama now?" ”
Akon thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to do the job of Captain Baca and let him stay in Panama and establish two hiding places here, one based on this Spanish colonial port, in the Caribbean." There is also one on the Pacific coast. In this way, the resources of the two sides can be used by each other, and the development should be very fast. The Chinese pirates and Maori stayed here to help with the construction. ”
"What if he refuses?" Zhang Fan asked.
Akon pondered for a moment and said, "Then leave Wang Cuiqiao here, maybe the construction will be slower." Later, we went to England and asked the Queen of England to help encourage some immigrants to come. Later, Chinese immigrants took root here, and then immigrated to San Francisco in North America. From there, it began to penetrate North America, which is also in line with the course of Chinese immigration to North America in later generations. ”
Speaking of this, Akon smiled, "I want to see if it is the group of American pioneers brought by the 'Mayflower', or our Chinese immigrants are more powerful!" Look at who this North American zuihou will be! By the way, what was the first ship to China? Changed the name of one of our ships......"
The book demon pushed the monocle and said lightly: "The first ship of the United States to China was on February 22, 1784, the birthday of President Washington, and the 360-ton three-masted sailing ship 'Empress of China' set sail for Huangpu Port in Guangzhou, China, was an armed merchant ship, and the captain Green was selected from the United States Navy. The shipowner, Morris, became the first U.S. Secretary of the Treasury because of this unprecedented successful trade......"
Akon waved his hand, interrupting the book demon's lengthy introduction, "It's called 'Queen of China'...... Hey, I remember that we had a three-masted armed galleon with that name? Have you already had this idea for a long time? ”
The book demon shrugged, "It's no harm to plan early......"
Akon was overjoyed and said, "Then let this ship sail to China now, don't waste time." It's going to take more than a year to go like this, so let's leave early. I'm afraid it won't be until we come back from China. Oh, by the way, it's almost February 22, 1569, so let's choose this day to go, 215 years in advance. Hey! By the way, what are the goods shipped to Guangzhou? ”
The book demon still said lightly: "473 quintals of ginseng, 2,600 pieces of fur, 1,270 horses of feather yarn, 26 quintals of pepper, 476 quintals of lead, more than 300 quintals of cotton, these commodities are a little troublesome for ginseng." I had Captain Baka ready long before I left for mainland China...... In order to be able to bring more Chinese immigrants over, I suggest that I drive three more galleons to follow suit, and bring some hot goods along the way......"
"Of course! I love you so much! Akon excitedly hugged the book demon and kissed him, then spit out in disgust, and glared at everyone fiercely, "No one is allowed to say it......"
…………
Captain Baka was reluctant to leave his hiding place, but when Zhang Fan introduced him to Ms. Wang Cuiqiao, the old pirate's mind changed. To say that Wang Cuiqiao, as a very famous Chinese woman in history, seems to have a special attraction to pirates. Even the Pirates of the Caribbean, who are tens of thousands of miles away and across the ocean, can't resist her charm!
Moreover, Wang Cuiqiao's background also fascinated the adventurous Captain Baka, a beautiful noble woman of the Chinese Empire, who became a legendary wife of the Chinese Pirate King, and more interestingly, the Pirate King was once a monk. And isn't it God's arrangement that such a legendary widow has traveled thousands of miles to the New World to meet her?!
You must know that Europeans pay little attention to the issue of women's remarriage that the Chinese are very concerned about, and for the adventurous European captain, Wang Cuiqiao's experience only adds to his indescribable mystery and irresistible charm! Captain Baka, who has not been married for many years after losing his wife, is simply fascinated by Wang Cuiqiao!
For Wang Cuiqiao, being able to have a man willing to accept her made her very moved. You must know that a remnant of flowers and willows like yourself is controversial in mainland China! In addition to being the plaything of dignitaries, there is simply no way out! How did she know that on the other side of Shijie, the background of a mysterious aristocratic family of the Eastern Empire like her, and the experience that was as legendary as any first-class adventurer, coupled with her impeccable beauty, was obviously an advantage that the European nobility could not resist! If it were in European high society, it would be a glamorous courtesan, and it would even be canonized by the royal family! Pursued by countless nobles!
Captain Bacca, since he saw Wang Cuiqiao, almost went to learn from the gentlemen of Europe, and ran to pay homage to her, and serenade her with roses under her window. In fact, even Captain Hook was jealous. If it weren't for the prestige of Zhang Fan and Katarina, the two pirate captains might have duel for Wang Cuiqiao.
For such a result, Zhang Fan was surprised. But it made Akon daxiao happy. A thing that originally gave him a headache was solved without any trouble. By the way, he also seduced Captain Hook here. Originally, the Akon Book Demon was still worried about whether these exotic pirates would turn against the water, but with Wang Cuiqiao, these gloom were blown away by the wind......
In fact, Wang Cuiqiao's management ability is no worse than that of Captain Baka, but he does not have Captain Baka's mechanical manufacturing ability. But in terms of trade and base building, as well as finance, I am afraid it is even better!
Moreover, as the child of an official eunuch in ancient China, she has received the orthodox three obedience and four virtues, the three outlines and five constants, and the brainwashing education of loyalty to the country and family. Otherwise, she would not have persuaded the Chinese pirate king Xu Hai to surrender to the imperial court. This made Wang Cuiqiao have no objection to accepting the leadership of Zhang Fan's team, and even admired this noble leader from his homeland very much. With an almost religious superstition, he unconditionally obeyed the command of Zhang Fan's team.
In Wang Cuiqiao's view, Zhang Fan and his team represent the interests of the Ming Empire. To serve them is to serve the imperial court. One day, I will be able to get the approval of the imperial court, wash away the dust of my body, and let my persecuted father get a snow for a while, and no longer shame my ancestors! It can be seen from this that the brainwashing education of the three outlines and five constants and the three obedience and four virtues of feudal society in China for thousands of years has had a profound impact on the behavior of Chinese women! In the future, Zhang Fan's team persuaded these Caribbean pirates to submit to China, laying an unexpected chess piece......
…………
After settling these Caribbean pirates, Chinese pirates, and Maori, Zhang Van Akon and the bookdemon immediately flew to Plymouth Harbour, England. Here, they also had to deal with the British captain and admiral Francis Murphy, the first British captain and admiral of the infinite scenery in the future. Drake and John. Hawkins, one more political investment. The good thing about knowing history is that you will never make the wrong investment and hug the wrong thigh!
