"Now that the Weigan Chamber of Commerce has fallen, the Wuli father and son have also been subdued." Liu Yu looked at Wu Dadao softly.

Wuda looked lonely, Wu Li was good to him, and he had been doing his best as a port official he had promoted, until the Ming army took over Vigan.

When the mercenaries rebelled, the desperate Wuli set fire to the private house and buried the whole family in the ruins.

When Wuda got the news, the huge Wu family's mansion had already been empty.

"Since the black house is empty, then you can move in." Liu Yu said.

Uda was stunned,

"My lord, this is not a joke," Uda shuddered, a little incredulous.

Liu Yu glanced at the Weigan officials who were stretching their necks to look at them.

"It's not just the Wu family's mansion, but the manor and plantation outside the city belong to you." Liu Yu said.

"Master Xie." Wuda was so excited that his legs trembled, and he knelt down involuntarily, and quickly kowtowed loudly.

The Vigan officials on the side were stunned,

Liu Yu is not disgusted with these Luzon Tufan, who were civilized by the Spaniards and managed the affairs of Luzon for the Spaniards, and they were quite competent.

Today's Luzon Ming Court is the time to employ people, and the number of Chinese in Luzon is far lower than Liu Yu expected.

made Liu Yu have to change his attitude and began to support some Luzon Tufan who worked for the Ming court.

Such heavy use of Uda is also an attitude to the local Tufan of Vigan.

I am much more enlightened than the Spaniards, as long as I can serve the Ming, then glory and wealth are just around the corner.

"Get up, now that everything in the port is under your control, you have to do your best to manage the port of Vigan for my Ming Court." Liu Yu said earnestly.

"Please rest assured, the villain will live up to the trust of the adult."

Seeing that the play was over, Liu Yu turned around and walked towards the dock.

The Vigan officials who were waiting on the side stepped forward to congratulate,

Wuda directly left these wine bags and rice bags and followed them all the way.

Since the Ming army took over the Chamber of Commerce wharf, the ships of the Four Seas Commercial Bank have also sailed here one after another.

Looking at the various ships moored at the berth, Liu Yu was very satisfied.

"Uda, how many ships are moored in the port of Vigan?" Liu Yu asked.

"Back to my lord's words, after the collapse of the Chamber of Commerce, the ships under the jurisdiction of the Chamber of Commerce merged with the ships of the Four Seas Commercial Company, and now there are more than 100 large and small ships, including a total of 30 three-masted ships with ocean-going capabilities." Uda1510, who trotted all the way, replied.

"My lord, due to the ban of the Ming army and the rampant piracy, merchant ships cannot go to sea to trade, fishing boats dare not go out to sea to fish, and today's Vigan caravans, sailors and fishermen are unable to make a living." Uda muttered quietly.

Liu Yu naturally saw it, most of the ships moored at the dock were deserted, and there was no one on board.

"It's not that my Ming court doesn't care about the livelihood of the people of Weigan, but that piracy is rampant, and all the ships that go to sea to trade have been spared, so I have no choice but to make this decision." Liu Yu said indifferently.

"Don't hide it, a few days ago, some fishermen secretly went out to sea to fish because they couldn't make a living, and finally died tragically under the pirate knife, and only one escaped back."

Hearing this, Liu Yu was startled,

"Pirates are so rampant, if it weren't for the fact that they wanted to trap Wigan." Liu Yu made a difficulty.

Just as the two were walking and talking, several Ming army generals were also rushing here.

"The last general will see Hou Ye,"

"General Li Du, how is the fleet?" Liu Yu came here to find out what was going on with the several armed merchant ships under the jurisdiction of the Chamber of Commerce.

"My lord, while the mercenaries were plundering around last night, our army took advantage of the situation to take down the large and small ships of the Chamber of Commerce, and the six armed merchant ships were also under the control of our army." Li Du said.

"Good." After listening to Li Du's words, Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

This Li Du is also an old man in Shuishi Town, and like Liu Quan, he was born in Shuishi Town.

At the beginning, he was wounded by Qing artillery in the Battle of Penghu and fell unconscious.

Xiao Wu loves talent, and when he defected to Luzon, he also took him with him, and it is a miracle that he did not take his life after more than ten days of wandering on the sea from Taiwan to Luzon.

On weekdays, he has been recuperating in Mingcheng, and Liu Quan led his troops to take over Weigan, and he also followed.

handed over the fleet that he had finally taken over, and Liu Quan was relieved.

"This mercenary is also ruthless, and he actually killed all the sailors on the ship, and when our army took over, they were already empty ships." Perhaps because the injury had not healed, Li Du's face turned pale.

"But fortunately, the pirates are besieging Vigan, and many merchant fleets are struggling to make ends meet, and when our army recruited sailors this morning, many sea-going soldiers who could not make ends meet came to serve our Ming army." Li Du barely smiled.

"In this way, now our Ming army has formed a sailor division." Liu Yu's eyes lit up and asked.

"Vigan is a port in Luzon, so naturally there is no shortage of seagoing experts, and these people have enough manpower to form a sailor."

"But," Li Du grimaced.

"Any questions?" Liu Yu sighed in his heart and hurriedly asked.

"Most of the guns equipped with the caravan are small cannons, and the small cannons are poorly powerful, and there are only a few cannons on each merchant ship, at most, they are shelling the pirate clippers that come to attack them, and they can't fight with the Francos." Li Du said.

"I should also think of it, how could this Franc man leave such an armed fleet under his nose." Liu Yu sighed.

But when he thought about it, something is better than nothing,

He immediately said to Wuda: "The Ming army controls Vigan, so can the Weigan dockyard build a big ship for the Ming army."

"If you want to build a big ship, the dock can naturally build it, but it costs more silver and wood."

"It's not a problem," Liu Yu shook his head,

"Last time, Su Langqing came forward to build two armed merchant ships for our Ming army to house artillery decks, and this time I hope that more such ships can be built in the dock."

Liu Yu is not short of ships now, and even has a shipyard that can build big ships.

Although merchant ships were obviously at a disadvantage against the Spanish ships, they were still able to deal with the Qing army or pirates.

But now the most critical question is artillery, how to get those heavy guns.

"I think Wigan also had a workshop for gunpowder and firearms."

Liu Yu remembered that Su Langqing had said that more than 20 small cannons had been seized in the port, indicating that Weigan did have a workshop for the production of firearms.

"It's all the chambers of commerce that privately recruit craftsmen to imitate the Spaniards' large cannons." Uda was undeniable.

"These cannons are easy to produce, not easy to blow up, and they are also quite useful against pirates, so the Chamber of Commerce secretly imitates them." Uda smiled bitterly.

"So Wigan's firearms workshop can really make some small two- or three-pound cannons." Liu Yu muttered.

For the Chamber of Commerce, these two- or three-pounder cannons are really useful.

However, for the Ming army, it is not enough to see at all.

"Let's recruit sailors first, the most important thing in Vigan now is good sailors."

"From the major caravans, we will hire experienced veterans from the ocean to join the Ming army, prepare in advance, and ask for the silver taels directly from the four seas merchants." Liu Yu didn't care so much, so he asked Li Du to recruit sailors first to prepare for the formation of a sailor.
