Chapter 29, the glorious and prosperous Qing Dynasty

Just when Zhu Daohua was busy engaging in diplomacy in Southeast Asia and other parts of East Asia.

Liu Guangliang and Vicente have arrived in Guangzhou.

Guangzhou Mansion is quite prosperous.

Ships come and go.

If you don't look at the thin bodies of the people walking on the road and the dishes on their faces.

and the words of the homeless beggars that can be seen everywhere around Canton Prefecture.

This Qing Dynasty can really be regarded as a glorious and prosperous era.

For a long time, the Qing Dynasty practiced a system of one-port commerce.

Only one trade port in Guangzhou will be opened.

And all trade is in the hands of the thirteen elements.

This time, Liu Guangliang and Vicente were going to meet the owner of the Thirteen Banks and Wu Dunyuan, the chief merchant of the Thirteen Banks.

As a result, the post of the two asking to see was sent.

It's been a few days.

There was no news.

Liu Guangliang spent money for several days to meet several people who had dealings with Jardine Bank, but he failed to get Wu Dunyuan's summons.

But that's normal.

Wu Dunyuan is a businessman though.

But it's also a top businessman.

As the general merchant of the thirteen lines, Wu Dunyuan carried the top of the four products on his head.

And Vicente is just a flag-bearer who has been decommissioned.

Needless to say, Liu Guangliang said.

In Lanfang, he is the son of the Jiatai of the Liu family.

Even if it weren't for the appearance of Zhu Daohua.

There is a high probability that he Liu Guangliang will be able to do a good job in the control of the Lanfang National Congress for several terms.

But that's only in the South Seas.

In the Qing Kingdom.

in Canton House.

Liu Guangliang's identity on his face is just a grass citizen.

And Wu Dunyuan is an official.

In the Qing Dynasty.

It is not easy for grass people to meet officials.

Liu Guangliang's silver money was used, but there was no response.

Just when he was about to go home.

A servant from Wu Dunyuan's mansion came.

"Liu Guangliang, Vicente, my lord wants to see you!!"

The little guy came in a hurry.

Liu Guangliang hurriedly stuffed a silver coin into the little girl's hand.

"This master, what is the situation this time?"

Originally, there was no news, and they were suddenly about to be summoned, and both of them were a little uncertain.

"How do I know, you just come along!"

The little guy accepted the money, but he was not very polite.

Liu Guangliang and Vicente glanced at each other, and hurriedly followed behind the little guy.

.......

At this moment.

Wu Dunyuan was anxious to go back and forth in the hall of the mansion.

The thirteen rows have ships that go out to sea for trade.

The main objects of trade were the Dutch and the British.

With the news that the Dutch were defeated by Zhu Daohua in the past few days, came.

At first, Wu Dunyuan thought it was a rumor.

Who is Zhu Daohua?

Who doesn't know about the "Pseudo-Prince Yiwen Case" five years ago in Guangzhou Mansion?

Although Zhu Daohua fled at that time.

But no one took it seriously

The Qing Dynasty is now a glorious and prosperous era.

Not to mention a descendant of Prince Yihe.

Even if it is the descendants of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty?

Although the people of the Heaven and Earth Society shouted every day against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty.

But if you really let those underworld with families and property rebel, they won't go one or two.

Five years ago, it was just a group of proletarian and jobless homeless people who picked up that Zhu Daohua.

This has been the case with every rebellion in history.

Only those who have nothing have the determination to rebel ....

So in this prosperous era of the Qing Dynasty, let alone a suspected Zhu Biao.

What if Zhu Yuanzhang is reincarnated?

However, the news from the sea made Wu Dunyuan very frightened.

Occupy Batam, expel the Dutch, and completely annihilate the fleet of the Dutch East India Company.

This is what a lost dog who fled from Guangzhou Mansion in panic could do?

And.

If Zhu Daohua has such strength....

His next goal.

It is very likely to be the Guangzhou Mansion.

And for Wu Dunyuan, he is more concerned about another thing...

That is the current trade rules on the surface of the South Seas, and it must be used... Ming Yuan.

I also have to pay taxes to Zhu Daohua.

If you don't follow this rule.

Those thirteen lines will not be able to go to sea.

If you follow ....

Well, that's not a decision that Wu Dunyuan, a thirteen-line general merchant, can make.

However, Wu Dunyuan also had a headache about the true and false news that came intermittently in Nanyang.

How are the Dutch doing now?

Do they still have the ability to buy raw silk on a large scale?

There is news that the Dutch Batavia Governor's Palace was destroyed by Zhu Daohua.

There is also information that the Dutch simply had their fleet destroyed.

In a word.

Even if he knew more about the outside world in the Qing Dynasty, he could be regarded as squinting at the thirteen general merchants of the world.

For things from the ocean.

It's also half-understood.

The entire Qing Dynasty had no systematic source of intelligence on Nanyang.

"Master, Liu Guangliang, a citizen of Nanyang, and Wei Cente, the deported bannerman, brought it."

"Quick. Let them in. ”

Soon.

Liu Guangliang and Vicente walked in with their heads down.

The two quickly knelt down.

"Grass people meet your lord!"

"Do you have any information against the Ming? Can you know how far the trend of the reverse Ming in the South Seas has become? ”

Liu Guangliang hurriedly said: "My lord, the puppet king Zhu Daohua first occupied Batam, and now he has destroyed the Dutch fleet, and now he wants to take Lanfang into his pocket." ”

"What?"

Wu Dunyuan was taken aback.

Lan Fangguo also knew.

Located in West Borneo.

The population is not very large.

But if it comes down to Zhu Daohua.

The population under the command of the puppet king is afraid that it can exceed 100,000.

That's a big force.

"The Dutch fleet is really wiped out?"

"It's true, the villain said lightly what he saw..."Liu Guangliang said honestly.

Wu Dunyuan walked back and forth a few steps when he heard this.

"Come with me!"

Wu Dunyuan looked up and said.

Then he wrote a letter.

"Come on, send the letter to the mansion of Lord Guo, the governor of Guangdong!!"

"Prepare the car!!"

Liu Guangliang and Vicente looked at each other.

This is going to meet the governor of Guangdong.

......

The fast horse delivered the letter and entered the official residence of the governor of Guangdong.

Seeing this, Guo Shixun, the governor of Guangdong, immediately sent another letter to the Liangguang Governor's Mansion in Zhaoqing.

According to the rules of Qing Dynasty officialdom.

The governor and governor are not in the same place.

Take Guangdong, for example.

The governor of Guangdong was stationed in Guangzhou.

The Governor of Liangguang was stationed in Zhaoqing.

If the governor wants to meet.

It is necessary to meet in Sanshui between Guangzhou and Zhaoqing.

In order to reflect the principle that the local "superintendents" are not subordinate to each other.

At the same time, Guo Shixun also immediately ordered people to prepare horses.

Hurry up and rush to Sanshui.

At the same time, he also asked people to take Wu Dunyuan and others to Sanshui to meet the governor.

Liu Guangliang and Wei Sente met Fukangan, the governor of Liangguang, and Guo Shixun, the governor of Guangdong, at the government office in Sanshui

Wu Dunyuan's four-grade top is worn in front of the two local officials, and there is no gold content.

Guo Shixun is the banner man of the Red Banner of the Han Army.

Fukangan, on the other hand, was the vice-capital of Manchuria with a yellow flag.

This kind of status is a high-ranking person who can call himself a slave in the Qing Dynasty.

It's not comparable to Han people like Wu Dunyuan and Liu Guangliang.

Liu Guangliang and Vicente didn't expect it either.

This time, I was able to see such a big person, and I didn't dare to come out after coming in.

Wait for Wu Dunyuan to kneel and worship.

He also hurriedly bowed down with the big bow.

The top of the head is on the ground.

Ass pouting old high.
