Chapter 281: Back to Luzon
I have to say that Ming Ting's move was also well-intentioned, but the results were obvious.
Obviously, the Quang Nam monarchs and ministers present were all fooled.
Even Ruan Fuwei's face showed a bit of surprise and solemnity.
"This time, I Guangnan and Daming trade, Daming has such a strong ship and cannons to keep the sea route unimpeded." Ruan Fuqin on the side hurriedly said.
"I, the Great Ming Sailor, am here to protect the peace of Luzon and resist the invasion of the Spaniards in the South Seas." Wang Li, who had been silent, also hurriedly played the round.
This meeting was also a success.
At least the Guangnan ministers finally acquiesced in the Ming court's power in the Jiading area, and at the same time were willing to trade with the Ming court.
The Minh Dinh was allowed to open the Four Seas Merchant Pavilion in Hoi An Port and Hue City.
Although there were a large number of merchants from all over the world in Hoi An and other places, they all came and went as merchants from Guangzhou in the Qing Dynasty.
From today onwards, merchants from all over the world can finally enter and exit the territory of Quang Nam as Luzon Ming people.
"Congratulations to the Chinese businessmen, this time Guangnan and the Ming Court trade, I believe that in time, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce will definitely hold the business community." After leaving the main hall, Ruan Fuqin greeted Su Langqing, Wang Li and others.
"This time, thanks to the prince, if it weren't for the prince's love for my Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, I'm afraid that we and other Chinese businessmen would not be able to persuade Ruan Fuwei to trade with the Ming Court." Su Langqing replied.
The reason why this trip to Guangnan was able to win the approval of the Guangnan ministers so quickly was that in addition to the fact that the Ming court had previously planted a large number of hidden personnel in Guangnan to go around to find out information and buy officials, the support of the prince of Guangnan was also very important.
If it weren't for the fact that this prince of Guangnan had opened the door in Hoi An when Guangnan and the Ming court were at odds before, I am afraid that merchants from all over the world would still be turned away by Guangnan at this moment.
"The Ming court was originally the Han people in China who were unwilling to submit to the Jianzhou Tartars, so they founded the state in Nanyang."
"We thought that the Nanyang Ming people were isolated and in a difficult situation, but these days and looking at the Nanyang Chinese merchants and today's firearms dedicated to my father, it is enough to see that the Nanyang Ming Court can be described as strong and strong, and the country is rich and the people are safe." Looking at the group of Chinese businessmen in front of him, Ruan Fuqin said approvingly.
This is not a compliment from his heart, but a heartfelt statement.
As early as when the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce had just entered Hoi An, he noticed that these Nanyang Chinese merchants who stayed in Han and wore Hanfu were fundamentally different from those Qing merchants with pigtails.
Although the Chinese merchants who came to Hoi An always claimed to be wealthy merchants of the Celestial Empire, in Nguyen Phuc Qin's view, these Qing merchants with pigtails and pigtails were nothing more than slaves.
However, these Ming merchants, who claim to be Nanyang Chinese businessmen, always give people a sense of superiority.
It has to be said that investing in these businessmen from all over the world is Nguyen Phuc Qin's biggest political gamble.
"Brother Su, can you stay in Hue City for a few more days?" Ruan Phuc Qin knew that Su Langqing came from Luzon, and now Quang Nam had agreed to trade with the Ming court, and even recognized the Ming court's rule in Jiading, so now Su Langqing should naturally return to Luzon to resume his life, so he opened his mouth to stay.
"My lord is still waiting for me to go back to my life, thank you for the kindness of the son." Su Langqing said with a smile.
"If the prince is in need in the future, my Four Seas Chamber of Commerce will definitely be the greatest reliance of the prince." Su Langqing also knew the plot in the heart of the prince of Guangnan in front of him, so he smiled.
"Then thank you, Brother Su." After Ruan Fuqin received Su Langqing's clear answer, he seemed to have a trace of confidence in his heart.
After leaving the palace, Su Langqing said goodbye to the king and hurriedly walked to the post station.
"This trip has gone well, and I can return to the Ming Court later." Wang Li let out a long sigh of relief.
It has been nearly a month since Jiading went north to Guangnan, and it is not long, but it has also made Wang Li and other Chinese businessmen worried.
"Since Quang Nam allows Sihai to open commercial offices in Hoi An and Hue, then Brother Wang should stay in Quang Nam to deal with trade affairs first." Su Langqing said.
"It's fine." In this regard, Wang Li has no objection.
Now the far sea is developing south of Luzon Island, and the Ming Sea is dedicated to serving the Ming court, and the mountains and seas are shrinking on the main island of Luzon, and only the land and sea can reach into Guangnan.
In terms of affection and reason, Wang Li has to stay and deal with the related
of things.
"This time, thanks to Mr. Su, I have solved a worry for my Ming Court." Wang Li said with a smile.
"It's just to take advantage of the power of the Ming Dynasty, I will leave for Luzon tomorrow, and the commerce and trade in the Jiading area of Guangnan will be handed over to President Wang." Su Langqing said.
"I'm going to return to Luzon Island so soon, shouldn't I go south to Jiading to rest for a few days and casually say something to Lord Xiao?" Wang Li was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.
"Xiao Wu is just a commander, and I will go to Guangnan on the orders of the Ming Lord, so naturally I will return to Luzon Island to report to the Ming Lord."
"And we have been waiting for a month to go north to Guangnan, and I am afraid that the rebellion in Jiading has already been quelled by our army, and there is nothing to do if we stay in Jiading, so I can't return to Luzon Island as soon as possible."
Unlike several other chamber of commerce presidents who always do it themselves, Su Langqing is more accustomed to sitting in the rear, and the most important thing is that Su Langqing is standing in the officialdom of the Ming Court, so he is naturally reluctant to leave the Laoag Royal City for too long.
"If there are people who are willing to go south to Luzon, they can be encouraged to settle in Luzon, but now the situation in the South Seas is unstable, and only Luzon is the place where we stand." Su Langqing instructed.
On the second day, Su Langqing left Hue City with Ming Shang and his entourage and rushed to Hoi An Port.
Wang Li and other land and sea merchants were left to deal with trade between the two countries with Quang Nam Hue officials.
When Su Langqing and his entourage left Hue City, Jiading and Xiao Wu led the Ming army reinforcements to the city of Mei Di.
It took only ten days for the Ming army to quell Huang Jin's rebellion, and the entire territory of Meidi was recovered by the Ming army.
For Meidi, this time the military disaster was not big, and it did not have much impact on the people, but it was not as traumatic as Xiangdongpu.
However, for the sake of prudence, after Xiao Wu discussed with Li Du, he still divided his troops and stationed them in various counties in Jiading.
When the Ming people in Jiading were recruited before, due to the weak strength of the Ming army, they had to order the local Ming generals to lead troops to be stationed in various places in Jiading.
And this time Huang Jin rebelled, but it gave the Ming army the best excuse to cut off the power of the Ming people in Jiading.
It happened that Li Du's Fubo Town carried three battalions of soldiers to Jiading.
After Li Shi discussed with Xiao Wu, fortunately, the troops of Liwu Town and the left and right battalions were dispersed, and the troops were deployed to various towns in Jiading.
The battalion soldiers and township soldiers in the Jiading area were also reorganized and reorganized by the Ming army.
In this regard, Yang Yandi, who had already known that the general trend was gone, had no opinion, and although Chen Shangchuan and other Dongpu factions were dissatisfied, due to the strong strength of the Ming army in Jiading at the moment and the fact that Dongpu had already suffered a great loss of vitality, they were no longer able to balance the Ming court, so they had no choice but to allow the Ming court to rectify the battalions in various places.
