Chapter 710: Deterrence

After the final announcement, there was no room for maneuver, and when the indignant people surrounded the mansion of the Japanese envoys, after which Wang Zhi appeared, and then after the proclamation of the official government, some people could not help but gasp.

These are the official and unofficial envoys of various countries.

It stands to reason that the envoy is the envoy, it is definitely officially recognized, and the official position is granted, it is impossible to be born in the wild road, but the Ming Dynasty is a special situation at the moment, and the exchanges between the imperial court and various countries are often at the level of the tributary system.

If you can't deal with the Ming court, who else can deal with it? After the new deal came out, the Zhizhejiang region suddenly became the focus, on the surface, this is only a corner of the Ming Dynasty, but on the contrary, people and the sea route pacification envoys, mastered trade and economic exchanges, and even a certain kind of process, but also decided the rise and fall of many states, at this time, do you want to send personnel, at any time to negotiate with others?

It's just that whether it is the Yamen of the Governor of Zhejiang or the Yamen of Zhejiang, or the six departments of Nanjing, they all have a characteristic, that is, sleek, sleek means that they will never give people a handle, the envoys of various countries have come to Hangzhou, and negotiate with the local Yamen of Zhejiang every day, which is also good, so many imperial envoys are staring at it, just waiting for you to be unlucky, I wish to find a reason to give you two bricks, if you are willing to accept, this is sick.

As a result, a new system emerged, in which the so-called states sent envoys, but did not recognize the identity of these envoys, who were often the nobles of the nation. or the royal family or the cronies of the powerful faction, or as a businessman, or as a study tour, all gathered in Hangzhou to make friends with officials in Zhejiang. Facilitate relations, and at the same time establish contact points to facilitate some of the country's contacts.

These envoys often stayed in Hangzhou for several years, and the old country gave them a lot of funds and gave them a certain right to make decisions. Life is not chic.

But under the good days, there are also hidden undercurrents.

The Ming Dynasty's crazy dumping of goods and trade have continued to grow in recent years, which has affected all aspects of many states at this time. Limited to the so-called tributary system, Annan recognized that the Ming Dynasty was the upper state of the Heavenly Empire, and the Ming promised that Annan would never conquer the country, and sent envoys to each other every three or five times. In fact, they are still estranged from each other.

It's just that now it's different, a large number of goods appeared in Annan by sea, causing Annan officials and nobles to flock to it, not to mention a large amount of silver, and some of the local industries in Annan have also been wiped out, at the same time, in order to expand trade, the pacification envoy has purchased land, built a port in Annam, and built a warehouse. Attracted a lot of Annam nobles and businessmen to do business with them, and the partners made a lot of money in Annam, in fact, on the surface, there seems to be no problem, after all, it is always the lower class people in Annam who suffer. In a sense, the dignitaries and nobles had more choices of goods in the Ming Dynasty, and they could even make a fortune together with the pacification envoys by sea, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

But in fact, there are still opposition parties in Annam, and the momentum is not small, at least the king of Annam is faintly a supporter of these opposition, but he does not dare to make it public.

The reason for this is also very simple, because we found that with the arrival of the sea route pacification envoy, the influence of the Ming Dynasty in Annam gradually deepened, and after the arrival of Ming goods, a fashion was quickly formed, and at the same time, many small and medium-sized handicraftsmen in Annam went bankrupt, and as commodities became the object of everyone's favor, cultural and other influences were also increasing day by day.

In fact, culturally, the Ming Dynasty has always had an influence on Annan, for example, among the upper nobles, they are proud of being able to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters, as for the classics of the saints, they have also spread in Annan, and the circulation is not shallow, and even the official system of Annan has mostly borrowed from the Ming Dynasty, but the exchange is limited to this, cottages, it is good to be able to use, and there is no need to go to the bottom of the matter, and study who the original creator is.

But now it's different, because of the emergence of the sea route pacification envoy, really began to affect Annam, in Annam, due to the best-selling goods, resulting in a considerable number of people's views on the Ming Dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes, on the one hand, they began to worship the Ming Dynasty extremely, the former abolished Chinese gradually began to become popular, and even some nobles, proud to speak Chinese, communicate with their children at home, but also abandoned the previous Vietnamese, the official language stipulated in the past, and no longer observed, at least among many ministers, Simply use Chinese characters to repair books and communicate.

What's even more terrifying is that due to the close connection between the sea route pacification envoy and some dignitaries, such as the goods of the sea route pacification envoy, many people often distribute them, and these people have become agents of the sea route pacification envoy in a certain way, after all, such a large piece of fat, the profits in it can be imagined, ordinary people will never be able to touch, and those who can touch are all people with absolute influence in Annam.

After getting benefits, exchanges were frequent, and even the general banner of the Jinyi Wei Baihu Office under the pacification envoy by sea arrived in Annan, and just arrived at the place, before he explained whether he was here to collect information or just to visit, there were countless invitations handed over, so that some children of the royal family actually had fun, and they didn't want to think about the identity of the other party, but they only knew that this person's status in the pacification envoy was not low, so they tried their best to win over.

As a result, the emerging interest groups in Annan and the sea route pacification envoy wore a pair of pants, not only did everyone's interests combine together, after the exchange, and even in other aspects, there was a lot of contact, the naval division general of Annan was the most obvious example, this person was originally to escort Annan, but as a result, this guy was haunted by the port built by the pacification envoy in Annan almost every day, and every time he was drunk and dreamed of death, and the military attachés of the pacification envoy drank and talked. There was a riot in the port against the pacification envoys, on the grounds that Annan's foot power was too low for the pacifying envoys' cargo ships, and they did not let the sea route pacify the envoys at all. Seeing this, the king of Annam was furious, and was about to clean up the general, who knew that it immediately attracted the opposition of many important people, and even the uncle and two uncles of the king of Annam, through various connections, told the king of Annam that the general had not made a mistake, and if it was disposed of, it might cause trouble.

Troublesome......

King Annan was dumbfounded, how can this be reasonable, what kind of matter is this, I am in charge of my territory, this Annan or the lonely king has the final say?

At this time, King Annan finally realized the problem, of course, he was also afraid of trouble, but once he was wary, naturally, he quietly cultivated a group of lock-up factions, although he did not dare to turn his face now, and he was not as tendoned as the lock-up faction of the Japanese state, but he was also looking for an opportunity, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to give the so-called 'enlightened faction' a fatal blow.

The reason why everyone waits and sees is because they want to see what the consequences will be after doing this, and some people even secretly celebrate with their crowns, hoping that they will set a good example.

It's just that the attitude of Zhizhe and the appeasement envoy dispelled all their illusions at once.

It's time to get your hands dirty.

So many people secretly went back and forth, asking for news everywhere, wanting to see how powerful the Ming Dynasty was, and whether the Ming Dynasty could withstand the pressure, and even many people secretly prayed, hoping that the Japanese State could resist the enemy and deal a fatal blow to the sea route pacification envoy.

Pingwa's bonds have been released by Ruyi Money, a total of 4.6 million taels of silver, if the pacification of the division wins, the benefits are amazing, for a while, by the rush to buy, what is even more ridiculous is that many Japanese businessmen are actually in the rush to buy, some related Japanese businessmen, and even the client everywhere to buy.

This news was released by Ming Pao, but it is difficult to say whether it is credible or not, but it is just for a while, which makes the Japanese people a laughing stock.

However, according to the people of Ruyi Qianzhuang, there are indeed many Japanese merchants who have bought bonds, in fact, for merchants, it does not matter whether there is a national border, as long as there is a profit, it is now that the Ming army has entered the Japanese country, burning and looting everywhere, and it has nothing to do with them. Historically, there has indeed been such a thing, Britain and the Netherlands fought for hegemony, the British issued war bonds against the Netherlands, and the Dutch merchants scrambled to purchase, and the British used the Dutch silver, just because the British bonds benefited more and profited the most, and the British relied on the Dutch businessmen to 'fund', repeatedly defeated the Netherlands, and soon swept the Netherlands into the dustbin of history. The Dutch merchants took the opportunity to make a fortune, and as for the ordinary people killed by the British army, the Dutch officers and soldiers who were stained with blood, and the destroyed Dutch cities and ports, it had nothing to do with them.

The power of the sea route pacification envoy is amazing, its mobilization ability is almost staggering, millions of silver military expenses, in fact, only overnight, has been raised, at the same time, these silver into countless materials, and through the busy and convenient waterways of Zhejiang, quickly gathered, in the port of Ningbo, hundreds of ships are filled with all kinds of supplies, countless new troops have already dressed up and boarded the ships.

What amazed many people was that it only took seven days, and after seven days, 17,000 new troops were trained, nearly 20,000 officers and men of the sea route pacification mission, and hundreds of ships were all prepared.
