Although the Hawaiian Islands are called Danju, the names of the islands are similar to those of later generations, as they are transliterated according to the local vernacular.

For Chinese navigators, however, the islands were more literally named: Big Island (Hawaii Island), Two Islands (Maui), Three Islands (Molokai), and Four Islands (Oahu...... They are numbered from east to west according to the geographical location.

In that year, Li Quan led a fleet to sail, first landing on the big island, but set up a stronghold on the second island.

The reason is simple, the chieftains of the big island are too powerful to control. And the chiefs of the two islands, the territory is relatively small and the population is relatively sparse, so it is easier to knead.

Although the chieftain of the two islands carved out a leased land to house the wounded and sick of Li Quan's fleet, he was able to gain the moon near the water and quickly build up his strength through trade. Then he brazenly launched an expansion war, conquered and annexed the weaker Mishima, and learned some outside information, and actually declared the founding of the country as the king.

After the founding of the state, the king did not attack the four islands farther away, but directly challenged the power of the big island.

The two sides fought for 20 years, during which they won and lost each other. They constantly curry favor with the Chinese, exchanging local products for iron tools with Chinese merchants at better prices. Later, he took the initiative to cede the natural harbor in exchange for firearms in the hands of Chinese merchants.

The Chinese merchants took advantage of the fishermen's profits, deliberately delayed the war, and if either side won a big victory, they would secretly sell more supplies to the defeated side.

Eventually, the war came to an abrupt end with a plague.

It is also unknown whether it was the bacteria brought by the Chinese from the mainland, or the bacteria contracted during the trade in Mexico. Anyway, the plague broke out in the Hawaiian Islands, killing thousands of people in the first year, and tens of thousands in the second year, and the two native kings had to make a truce.

Unlike Western colonizers, the Chinese, instead of actively spreading the disease, really wholeheartedly helped prevent the epidemic - provided that the king gave enough money.

……

Directly east of the Big Island (Hawaiian Island), there is a bay that is a natural harbor.

According to the local dialect of the island, the transliteration of this Hong Kong is probably "Heino". The Chinese changed it and became more elegant, and finally named it "Huiruogang".

During the Twenty Years' War, the king leased the bay to the Four Seas Trading Company for an annual fee of one silver dollar and provided the king with 100 muskets at one time.

The king of Oshima was very happy at the time, but regretted it afterwards because he could not make gunpowder and had to spend extra money on ammunition for each battle. And since then, they have been bound by interests, and once they turn their faces with the Chinese, those 100 muskets will become burning sticks.

Cheng Mo took the envoys of the Itza Kingdom and landed in Huiruo Port on a Chinese merchant ship, and he must go to visit the Fei family.

Although Fei Chun's younger brother died of the epidemic, he left behind descendants.

And because of Fei Chun's continuous funding, he recruited Chinese from China and Mexico, and sent a few over every year. The Fei family, exiled to Hawaii, has acquired nearly 2,000 acres of arable land through purchases, has more than 160 semi-tenants and semi-homesteaders, and owns a large mountain for harvesting sandalwood.

Huiruo Port is quite "prosperous" and is the largest transit and supply station in the Pacific Ocean.

Not only the ships of the Shikai Trading Company, but also other domestic trading companies come here. Of course, the Spanish fleet was forbidden to dock, and once it docked, it was bound to be attacked.

At the foot of the hill northwest of the port, there is a fortress built against the mountain.

There were 50 regular soldiers stationed in the fort, all of whom had committed serious military discipline in the country and were thrown to Hawaii with their wives and children to atone for their crimes.

There are also civil servants.

The position of the chief official is called "Danzhou Colonial Envoy", similar to the colonial governor, but the rank is only the eighth grade, and he is promoted by the senior officials who take the initiative to sign up.

Next to the fortress was the residential area for the families of officials and soldiers, and further on the periphery were civilian residential areas and commercial areas. The business district is connected to the marina, and many of the island's indigenous people live nearby.

Those natives came from prisoners of war, and the two countries were at war, giving birth to prisoners of war, who were to be killed and sacrificed to the gods, or used as slaves to cut down trees and plant land.

Chinese gentlemen are kind-hearted and spend money to buy prisoners of war.

Moreover, prisoners of war from the Big Island,

All of them are located on Nishima. Prisoners of war from Futashima, all of whom were housed on Oshima. They can't run, and when they leave the Chinese immigration area, they are all mortal enemies.

The POWs also did not want to run because they were given freedom.

The first few batches of prisoners of war were arranged to work as porters at the docks. Gradually, some were hired by the Chinese as domestic servants or shop handymen. After the Fei family bought a mountain, they bought prisoners of war to work as lumberjacks.

These natives have learned to speak Chinese and are increasingly accepting Chinese customs and etiquette.

In Huiruogang and surrounding villages, there are fewer than 2,000 Chinese (including indigenous wives and mixed-race descendants). However, the number of Sinicized natives has exceeded 3,500 people, and there are even indigenous ship repair craftsmen.

Cheng Mo landed at the port, and not far away, an indigenous rickshaw driver asked in fluent Chinese, "Do you want to take a car?"

"No, I don't." Cheng Mo is not a person who is greedy for enjoyment.

From the wharf to the business district, there are Chinese buildings along the way, and those who don't know think they are in southern China.

Cheng Mo took the envoy of the Itza Kingdom and first went to the fortress to visit the colonial envoy of Danzhou. Then turn south, through the commercial area and the wharf, to a large suburban farming area.

Rice is planted here, the fields are even strange, and the chickens and dogs smell each other, which is a rural scene in southern China.

This is the only Chinese farming area on the island, and the amount of arable land controlled by the Fei family accounts for one-fifth, all of which Fei Chun bought for his brothers.

Cheng Mo came to a house, which was nothing in China, but it belonged to a mansion in Hawaii.

He handed a message of worship to Menzi: "Please report, Cheng Mo asks to see."

Not long after, Cheng Mo was taken into the house.

Fei Chun's nephew, Fei Liangfu, was exiled here with his father in his early years, and now he is over half a hundred years old. He personally came to the court to greet him, and said with a hearty smile: "Xiaoyou is a rare guest, I haven't seen you for a long time!"

"Tan Weng is in love, and he actually welcomes it here." Cheng Mo returned the salute.

He had been on adventures all over the world, had settled in Hawaii for a year due to illness, and was hired by Fei Liangfu as a tutor.

"Meet the teacher!"

A few children of the Fei family saluted together.

Although the Fei family is in exile, they are very persistent. Children and grandchildren are not allowed to marry indigenous women, and they must keep their blood pure, but in view of the cruel reality, it has been relaxed to the point that they can marry Chinese mixed-race women.

Cheng Mo was invited into the living room, and an indigenous maid came with tea.

The maid is twenty-eight years old, cultivated since childhood, and her every move actually carries the charm of Jiangnan. Unfortunately, due to racial issues, the skeleton appears slightly larger, and the appearance is more similar to the Northland Rouge.

Fei Liangfu smiled and introduced, "Little friend, try it, this is a small kind of river red sent by the old cousin."

Cheng Mo didn't know how to taste tea at all, so he pretended to take a sip and immediately praised: "This is the best."

Fei Liangfu said triumphantly, "Not only is it the best, but it is also a tribute. Two years ago, His Majesty had an edict to set the lead mountain and small river red as a tribute, and 20 catties of the highest grade were purchased from the palace every year. Most of the small river reds of this quality are going to enter the palace, and ordinary magnates can't buy them with money."

The smile on Cheng Mo's face did not change, but he sighed secretly in his heart.

He already knew from the maritime merchants that Datong China had changed emperors, and it was now Zhao Han's grandson, Emperor Zhanglong, Zhao Shixuan, who reigned.

In the second year of his succession, the new monarch was pushed to war, took the initiative to attack the Spanish colonies, and took the entire South Philippine Islands. He immediately ordered the Joseon to pay tribute to eunuchs and train eunuchs from young children, as if to restore the eunuch system.

Taizu Zhao Han and Taizong Zhao Kuanghuan will not issue an edict to set anything as tribute.

And the new emperor has begun to play the trick of tribute, although the royal family still has to spend money to buy, but after a long time, there will definitely be many ills.

Cheng Mo has been adventuring around the world all year round, of course, he is talking nonsense: "Tan Weng enjoys it so much, the best Xiaohe red that the powerful in the country can't drink, and there are actually some in Danzhou, thousands of miles away. If it were not for the blessings of Totanion, where would I, a toiling man, taste half of it?"

Leadshan County produced famous tea in the Song Dynasty, including Zhoushan tea, white water tea, and Xiaolongfeng group tea.

In the Ming Dynasty, more than 10 kinds of famous teas were produced one after another, among which the lead mountain and river black tea was sold all over the world. The land of Longxing in the Datong Imperial Court can also be regarded as a lead mountain, so the fame of lead mountain river black tea has risen again, and it belongs to the first-class tea in the country.

With the financial resources of the Hawaiian Fei family alone, they can't afford it at all, and the price will increase more than ten times if it is shipped thousands of miles.

Isn't it relying on the support of the domestic Fei family?

"Father, father, there is a domestic urgent letter......

Halfway through the tea, Fei Liangfu's eldest son Fei Gongyan came to see that something really happened like this.

Cheng Mo immediately got up to say goodbye and was personally sent out by Fei Liangfu.

When Cheng Mo left, Fei Liangfu asked his son, "What does the letter say?"

Fei Gongyan said, "Today's saints, with their ambitions all over the world, have ordered the acceleration of overseas immigration. Here in Danzhou, there will be 200 immigration places next year! This is a big deal, this island has been multiplying immigrants for decades, and the Han people are only nearly 2,000. The two islands next door are even less, and there are 1,200 Han people in Manda. But the imperial court will send 200 next year, and if this continues, the population of the Han people will double in a few years."

"More people are better, more people are better!" Fei Liangfu was overjoyed.

Zhao Shixuan, the emperor of Zhanglong, although he planned to restore the eunuch system and reorganized the list of tributes, he was really not a faint king.

It seems that the war with Spain was carried out with reckless force, but in fact, it was the use of foreign wars to transfer internal contradictions, and by the way, to increase the prestige of the new monarch with military victories, so as to quickly control the power of the court.

Accelerating overseas immigration is also a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

The population of the country is explosive, and many cities are even full of beggars, and there are all kinds of idle gangsters. The population is overpopulated, the gap between the rich and the poor is widening, and the crime rate is also increasing year by year.

Then clean up the beggars in the big cities first, and the felons who are not enough to die.

to Siberia, to the Western Regions, to the South Seas, to India, to the Americas...... Wherever it is closer, it is necessary to organize migration.

Anyway, with the strong family foundation saved by Taizu and Taizong, the imperial court would no longer be burdened with huge debts, and there was too much silver in the treasury to be used up. It is just right to take advantage of large-scale official immigration to clean up the surplus population of cities and prisons, and by the way, enrich the number of immigrants in the colonies, accelerate the development of the colonies and obtain wealth.

The imperial grandson who was under Zhao Han's knees back then is now Emperor Zhanglong, who shows his fangs.

The decades of operation of the two successive emperors have shown amazing explosiveness in the hands of Zhao Shixuan, and the official attitude has triggered a violent public reaction.

Maritime merchants were the first to notice the change in the direction of the wind and expanded their immigration business, and poor young people in coastal provinces also sought loans from maritime merchants to take the initiative to go to sea. They formed a "so-and-so colonization team" based on clan and place of origin, and took advantage of the policy to launch a more bloody colonial movement.

It is only because the emperor encouraged overseas development and increased military spending, so that overseas garrisons can help immigrants open up the situation!

Take the Hawaiian Islands, for example, 200 new immigrants have not settled in the long-established islands of Oshima, No. 2, and Mishima. Instead, led by the local garrison, they headed straight to the four islands farther away, where the sandalwood trees had not yet been cut down.

Kill chiefs, capture slaves, and grab land.

Those new immigrants, some of whom became plantation owners, and some of whom became forest farm owners, to put it bluntly, were like the European colonizers, but the distribution links were very different.

The Fei family, who took root on the big island, also sent people to colonize the four islands, taking the opportunity to obtain a large area of sandalwood forest.

This was the case in various colonies.

In some places, things went well, while in others there was chaos, causing a surge in military spending in many colonies. In order to make up for the loss of military spending, the governor of the colony had to pull down his face and squeeze the profits of the colony to the maximum, which then led to riots, and had to spend money to send troops to suppress them.

Domestic public opinion is also divided into two factions, one in favor of iron-blooded colonization and the other in opposition to reckless militarism.

This frenzied colonial campaign ended with the death of Emperor Zhao Shixuan. The result was a multiplication of the size of the colony under its control, with the negative effect of corruption in the official immigration process, which resulted in many migrants dying of illness at sea. As for the financial impact, it is really not clear whether it is good or bad, and it costs a lot of money and increases

The income is also more.

In the case of the Hawaiian Islands alone, the pros definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

The new Han Chinese immigrants quickly occupied the islands. But the indigenous population is still too large, and after killing the chieftain, the status of other tribal leaders must be recognized. In this way, the Han people and the natives coexisted in conflict and integration, and gradually assimilated into one.

The two kings of Oshima and Nishima quickly corrupted after the truce.

Since there is no point in fighting, then just lie flat. The royal family and the aristocracy, obsessed with Chinese luxury, sold their profits and oppressed the people in exchange for their own long-term enjoyment.

And China's customs and culture are also affecting the people of the two islands, they can't stand the privileges of the nobility, can't stand the cruel criminal law, the kind of law that kills people and sacrifices to the gods at every turn is too perverted. It is outrageous that ordinary people basking in the sun on a particular beach should be sentenced to death.

Eventually, at the instigation of Chinese officials, civilian uprisings broke out in both countries, and the royal families of Oshima and Nishima were all killed, and even some tribal leaders were killed.

As a result, the entire Hawaiian Islands came under the rule of the imperial court.

At the beginning, the Danzhou Governorate District was established, and decades later it was changed to Danxian County, and the main port city was opened. With the continuous sinicization of the islanders, Danxian County was promoted to Danzhou, Danzhou Prefecture, and Danzhou Province, and it did not break away from the central rule until the end.
