Chapter 135: The East Falls for You

If that's the case.

For Zhu Youzhen, it was really a blood loss to his grandmother's house.

Of course, he actually has a deep concern for the so-called world trading powers...

The things that are not in the West are not very important, and the Ming Dynasty at the moment is actually full of all kinds of development potential.

Inside the main hall.

Today, Zhu Youzhen specially placed the place where the Dutch were summoned in the Jinluan Hall, which is only used by the court on weekdays.

"Count Plitt of the Dutch East India Company met with His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire...".

Pulit was a little confused by the summons of His Majesty the Emperor in front of him.

After all, he had been here earlier.

But that time.

He brought the Dutch East India Company a lucrative Oriental trade at the same time.

It also tied the Netherlands and Daming completely.

The most important thing is, of course, the imperial bond that has not yet been clearly enacted by the Ming Empire...

But as long as those mentally retarded people in the Netherlands can believe this story, and believe that the Ming Empire, the rich empire of the East, will not be in debt...

So what does all this have to do with him?

"You Dutchmen have been doing good business in Daming lately, aren't they? I heard that you are also preparing to invest in the Beijing-Tianjin Industrial Park and open a garment factory? ”

"Returning to His Majesty the Ming Empire, it is indeed the case, we found that there is a large number of cheap spinning yarns in the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, there is also this low-priced but high-quality wool...

So we want to open a factory in the Beijing-Tianjin Industrial Park, and in the future, these textiles will be shipped back to Europe by us..."

Zhu Youzhen nodded fakely, in fact, Zhu Youzhen had already heard about this matter, and he also deliberately gave the green light to this group of Dutch businessmen.

He didn't believe that these people could make money in Daming at all.

When they threw down a lot of silver.

They will find out why the cost of the textiles they produce is even higher than the selling price of the textiles produced by Daming.

If a country can be destroyed by commercial means or industrial means...

Then Zhu Youzhen seems to have seen these European countries that will consider themselves to be the first industrialized European countries in the world for hundreds of years.

It may never be possible to develop your own industry...

After all, in such a society, no one will ever do unprofitable business...

What's more, Zhu Youzhen is also preparing to organize the Daming Trading Company with Daming Royal Capital as the core after quelling the current war.

Overseas interests also made Zhu Youzhen excited...

"I came to you today, not just to talk about this matter, I mainly want to ask you Dutch, are you preparing to start a war with my Ming Empire?"

!!

Plitt couldn't believe what he was hearing.

The young emperor's face in front of him changed from the smile just now to the iron blue, and the process was comparable to the folk art called "changing face" in the Ming Dynasty that he had heard of.

The words that can be said make him feel the same fear and panic...

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. I don't understand what you mean by this sentence ... The Dutch East India Company and our Dutch merchants have always been law-abiding in Daming, and they conduct business activities in accordance with the laws of Daming... We don't dare to do anything out of the ordinary."

Plitt hurriedly explained.

"Then tell me...

Why is there a pier on the island of Taiwan now flying your Dutch flag? There were even warehouses, bunkers, living quarters, and even someone saw a casino there... Qinglou.."

After his company had to drive out the Portuguese in East Asia, he would take over the fact that they secretly concealed the dock set up by the Ming Dynasty on the island of Taiwan.

Pulit is actually in the know...

But I didn't expect that the emperor of the Ming Empire in front of him was actually very angry about this, and if you didn't know about this matter, I, Daming, would think that you wanted to start a war with me.

This made Pulit even more uncomfortable, standing in the middle of the hall...

I was a little speechless for a moment, but it didn't last long...

"Say! Tell me how you Dutch businessmen do business in Daming!? ”

Bang!

Zhu Youzhen slapped the armrest of the dragon chair on the side of his hand..

Indeed, there is a secret sentence in my heart.

"Nest grass.. It hurts me! ”

Zhu Youzhen and Pulitt were not the only ones in the hall, and many officials of the New Political Affairs Bureau were greeted by Zhu Youzhen, and such a grass platform was temporarily set up to meet with the Dutch.

Of course, the most important thing in this is the assistance of the Ministry of Rites, a set of rules and processes to go down. Let Pulit think that he has come to Daming again, and at this moment he is here on behalf of the Dutch East India Company and the country behind him..

Unknowingly, even by the Ministry of Rites through such a way..

Let Pulit become the Dutch speaker in Daming in a trance... In fact, if this old man can be more sober, it is estimated that he can distinguish some cats...

Like what.. Why did he only call him alone this time?

It's all about the big things between countries, are these things really things that he can handle in Pulit?

Is it really what he needs to come out and face?

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. On behalf of the Dutch East India Company and my country, I would like to express my deep apologies to you. The affairs of the island of Taiwan are not essentially set up by us there.."

"Oh? Not you? Who would that be? Zhu Youzhen's expression was cold, and he asked lightly.

"Your Majesty . . . All this was done by the cunning, dirty Portuguese, and we Dutch merchants never invaded or tried to invade any country and occupy any inch of his land. We are nothing but peace-loving merchants on the sea."

The shamelessness of the gray-haired old man in front of him, who was holding a cane tightly in his hand, was also much beyond Zhu Youzhen's expectations.

The Dutchmen of this year, all the European merchants of this year to be exact...

Is there a good thing?

Zhu Youzhen expressed deep doubts about this, and he did not think so.

You must know that the first group of merchants were fishermen who were willing to survive at sea, and the fishermen of the Tessie countries in Europe today are really fishermen who pick up fishing nets...

But if you put down the fishing nets... Pick up muskets and knives with them.

Live is synonymous with piracy...

"In this case, didn't I say that I misunderstood you?"

Prit nodded vigorously, as if he felt that there was still a possibility to talk about this matter: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire... Your talent and wisdom make the whole East willing to fall for you.."

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen's heart.." What's that? ”
