Whether the party struggle in the Ming Dynasty is fierce or not, it can be seen from the miscellaneous newspapers, just like so many demon books in the Ming Dynasty, when the party struggle in the court is fierce, the miscellaneous newspapers are also full of firepower, when the party competition is fierce to the point of incandescent incandescent The miscellaneous newspapers will die down and quietly wait for the results of the party struggle.

Now, the miscellaneous reports of the Ming Dynasty did not focus too much on the entry of the three ladies into Beijing, nor did they focus too much on the internal strife between the northern captives.

In April and May, each with 50 three-masted plywood ships, and five five-masted ships were subscribed, but still on the same day, they were snapped up, and the trading house of Yanxinglou, in addition to the monthly subscription time, was very lively, and it was deserted on weekdays, and everyone refused to take out the tickets for trading, and there was no market, which did not affect the purchase of ship tickets.

The price of ship tickets is rising, and even if you just get your hands on it, you can make money and make people more enthusiastic about ship tickets.

Wanli seven years in June a new batch of ship tickets re-subscribed, at the same time, in April subscribed out of the ship tickets, also ushered in the first dividend, according to the planning of the Ministry of households, dividends should be calculated by year, this is also a common phenomenon in the Ming Dynasty, Wang Chonggu's plan is also planned.

However, at the beginning, Emperor Daming, Zhang Juzheng, Wang Chonggu, Tan Lun and others miscalculated the enthusiasm of the luxury households for the plan of ship tickets and everyone being the shipowner.

The development of things is not always according to the emperor's expectations, even Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun and others who are among the dragons and phoenixes among the people have miscalculations, but the system has been formulated, so the mistakes can only be made in this way.

"So much, a ship ticket can actually pay dividends of three taels of silver! This, this, this! "A Jin businessman looked at the bills in his hand, people are stupid, according to the expectations agreed by the Jin businessmen at the beginning, it is three years to return to the capital, followed by profits, and can be subscribed to a number of ships, so as to reduce the risk, according to the Ming ship return to more than eighty percent to calculate, about five years later, is the net profit.

Lying down to make money, this is the biggest charm of the Everyone Owner program.

However, this time the ticket dividends are as high as three silvers per vote, which means that it can be repaid in a year and a half, even if the loss of the ship is counted, it will take two years to return to the capital.

Zhu Yijun is in Yanxing Building, which is an important project of financial affairs this year, and it is a business completely managed by the emperor and the internal government.

"If they knew that this was the result of removing taxes, removing 30% of the profits of Songjiang Ocean Commercial Bank, removing state funds, and sharing profits with domestic funds, they would be afraid that they would rebel tomorrow, and they would have to raise their faces and blame Chen Shan." Zhu Yijun looked at the shouting crowd and said in amazement.

Songjiang Ocean Commercial Bank is a firm established by the Ming Dynasty, in which the official ships, that is, the ships that belong to the Ming Dynasty, all the profits in addition to the retention of three percent of the profits, there are also three percent to be directly handed over to the state treasury, and finally the dividends to them.

But even so, the return on the ship ticket completely exceeded their expectations.

"Merchants are all profit-seeking, they will anticipate the possibility of success, and raise the knife face to blame Chen Shan, isn't that rushing to raid Your Majesty's house? Just as His Majesty wants. Feng Bao was on the side, and said quite respectfully, 100,000 sharp soldiers in the Daming Beijing camp guarded the town, giving the Jin merchants bear heart and leopard guts, and they didn't dare to do this, His Majesty sharpened his knife Huohuo, and was always waiting to raid the house.

"That's right." Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "This business is done." ”

Zhu Yijun did not adjust the dividend strategy of Wanli for seven years, but still took the ship as a unit, and paid dividends every time he returned to the ship, and only after the eighth year of Wanli would dividends be paid on an annual basis.

Because the adjustment of the policy is a matter that affects the whole body, the decree of the court must be changed, the time for the accounts of the Songjiang Prefecture City Shipping Division to be checked must be changed, the accounts of the Songjiang Ocean Commercial Bank must be changed, the accounts of the Yanxinglou Trading Bank must also be changed, and the Treasure Money Bureau of the Ministry of Households, the Baoyuan Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, and the Military War Bureau of the Internal Department must be changed.

The dividends in front of the counter are mainly in the form of the accounting currency of the acceptance bill, not to carry the cash to the person, but to issue the acceptance bill by the Baoyuan Bureau, and to withdraw it from the Baoyuan Bureau, and to carry out the embossing of the silver coin.

This is also the reason why the merchants, luxury households, and village sages and gentlemen who are not afraid of the imperial court embezzling silver, it seems that everything is traded in the Yanxinglou trading house, but behind it are countless joints, if you want to get through these joints, you need to have hands and eyes to the sky, and you need to be able to open up all the departments involved in it, and there are only two people in the Ming Dynasty who can do it, Emperor Ming and Yuan Fu Taifu.

Emperor Daming and Yuan Fu Taifu really want to deal with them, where do they need to be so cumbersome? If you want to do it cleanly, let the tax office issue a few collection bills for arrears, but fail to pay them on time, and just invade the door and clean up the house, who hasn't owed any taxes? If you are really in a hurry, directly let the riders buckle a rebellious hat, directly raid the house, bypass the intermediate link, and the speed is faster.

Ti Cai and Jin Yiwei are themselves a yamen between the outer court and the inner court, a spy agency, and a very unreasonable knife in the hands of the emperor, but His Majesty is unwilling to be unreasonable, and he does not want the country to lose his trust, so he never does it.

"Is that the cowardly guard of Lady Zhongshun?" Zhu Yijun frowned, he saw a person wearing a left hat, looked at it for a while, and recognized this person.

Feng Bao took a closer look, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, indeed." ”

"Go and ask what you are doing in this Yanxing Building." Zhu Yijun asked with some confusion.

Feng Bao left for a while, and then came back, he said with a strange face: "Back to Your Majesty, come to subscribe for the ship ticket." ”

"Huh?" Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment, and Zhang Hong, Zhao Mengyou and others who accompanied him were also full of surprise, did this plan of everyone become a shipowner, and even the grassland people were attracted to it?

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "It's not the day to pledge, I rushed to a late meeting, and asked the eunuchs to give some, with a thousand certificates." ”

The unit price and dividends of a ship ticket are about the same, they are all fifty taels of silver, and the dividends are also the same, Zhu Yijun is a trader, of course he has a bunch of tickets in his hand, since the three ladies want to buy this thing before leaving, and they want to participate in the plan of everyone being the shipowner, then Zhu Yijun is also willing to make it convenient.

"Remember it's selling, it's not a gift, otherwise the account of the internal money can't be done, it's a sale! That's fifty thousand taels of silver. Zhu Yijun carefully told again, it was not a reward, it was a sale, one sum was one sum, and the brothers still knew the accounts.

Zhu Yijun has a ship ticket in his hand, the whole Chu, the whole Jin, the whole Zhejiang hall, if necessary, you can go to Zhu Yijun here to ask for a holy family, it can also be regarded as a means of controlling the courtiers' halls, as the actual controller of the Ming Jin Kingdom, the three ladies are an important dividing force in the Ming Dynasty on the grassland.

After entering the summer, the rainfall in Beijing gradually increased, rainy days are often there, the three ladies stayed for a few days, it was because of the rain, the road was slippery and not easy to walk, and when the weather was clear, the three ladies suddenly received the emperor's gift before leaving, and they were quite happy, even if they were sold to her, but this ship ticket was not something anyone could buy.

Jingshi is extremely sought after for the Ming ship tickets, and a steady stream of funds has been injected into the Thirteen Prefectures of Nanya, and the matter of opening the sea is in full swing.

In Wanli Haitang, the Daming Water Division recovered three more plantations, and the Daming Water Division divided into three routes and launched attacks in Java, Borneo and the Strait of Malacca.

"In the first four months of this year, we have recovered a total of 18 plantations, and 54 plantations, and the most difficult bone to gnaw on is near the Strait of Malacca, where the country of Mangarat has been effectively destroyed, and the Strait of Malacca is under the direct control of Meneses, the Governor of Goa, and Barreto, the Governor of Diu, as assistance, and it is extremely difficult to attack." Deng Zilong kept scratching on the map.

In the direction of Borneo and Java, the Ming Dynasty made very good progress, but in the direction of the Strait of Malacca, the Ming Dynasty's offensive resistance was extremely great, and it can even be said that not an inch of work was established and an inch of land was not taken.

This kind of thing is almost a matter of course, because the red hairy fan has ruled the local area for more than sixty years.

In the fourth year of Zhengde, the red-haired fans, who had occupied Cochin, an important port in western India, set their sights on Malacca, the capital of Manca.

This city is a prosperous city, with a circumference of more than forty miles, even in the Ming Dynasty, it can be regarded as a huge city, and this city is home to the local Mangarat and Persians, as well as a large number of Tamils, Bengalis, Gujaratis, as well as Ottomans from Tessy and Armenians from Tessi.

It is a veritable city of nations.

During the Chenghua period, the Mangarat Kingdom converted from Buddhism to return, with the aim of uniting people of different colors, languages, and cultures in the city of Malacca.

In the fifth year of Zhengde, the Sakra fleet of the red-haired colonial fleet returned in front of the city of Malacca, and the following year, the great conqueror Albuquerque led eleven Carrick galleons, three light galleons, and two galese warships to attack the city of Manila, and there were only 600 red-haired people on these sixteen warships.

In August of the 6th year of Zhengde, Albuquerque conquered the city of Malacca, the king of Mangarat and his two princes fled, and Mangarat declared the kingdom dead.

Since the sixth year of Zhengde, Hongmaofan has ruled the Strait of Malacca for more than 60 years, and in these 60 years of operation, it cannot be said that it is impregnable, but it can also be said to be an impregnable wall.

Almost all the ports that can dock ships have been occupied by Hongmaofan and built a strong fortress, and the remaining Mangara forces have also been wiped out, and those forces who do not accept Hongmaofan's colonial rule have also gradually died out in the long struggle of sixty years, and the people here have long been accustomed to Hongmaofan's rule, and will even help Hongmaofan resist the attack of the Ming Dynasty.

Daming's fleet really has no way to start.

"Difficult." Masashige, surnamed Guo, also had a headache for attacking the Strait of Malacca.

The most important thing is that the red-haired fans are shrinking the front, and when the Ming army came, under the control of Menezes, the governor of Goa, the red-haired fans retreated to the narrow Strait of Malacca, relying on the port defense that had been in operation for many years.

This retreat is to exit a turtle shell that has no way to eat.

After the Ming Dynasty announced the attack, Meneses immediately abandoned all the colonies and plantations on the Wanli Sea Pond, concentrated all their forces and defended the Strait of Malacca, forming a local advantage, and then negotiating with the Ming Dynasty.

Meneses had already sent three emissaries to Manila, and Meneses had made the following conditions: the port and the shipping lanes were opened, and the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty could pass freely; All merchants in the Ming Dynasty will implement a 6% tax on the distribution of points; Menezes can provide all charts in the Malacca Channel to ensure the smooth navigation of the Ming fleet and prevent grounding; Daming can hire local porter barges to deliver the goods; Stopping at the Malacca waterway, without any points and taxes, he requested to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty in the name of the Mangara State;

Meneses's conditions, in fact, are to sum up that the dove occupies the magpie's nest, the governor's palace of Goa, and continues to rule in the name of the state of Mangara.

"Our attack on the Strait of Malacca will inevitably attract the support of the Goa Governor's Mansion and the Diu Governor's Palace, either to storm and win the battle, or to gain an inch, but in this way, our Ming Dynasty's losses will be very large, and it can even be said that the gains outweigh the losses." Zhang Yuanxun leaned on the back of the chair and said with an extremely solemn face.

Goa's Governor Meneses proposed such lucrative conditions in order to make the Ming feel unworthy, increase the cost of Daming's decision-making, and then abandon the conquest of the Strait of Malacca.

"What did Your Majesty say?" Yin Zhengmao looked at Deng Zilong, he returned to Songjiang Mansion with a five-masted foreign ship, and took a boat into Beijing Miansheng.

"Your Majesty said that thousands of miles away from Luzon, Your Majesty does not know the details of Luzon, but with the surname of Surabaya Boguo Zhengmao and Yingyang Bo Zhang Zongbing, if you can't catch it, you can ask for help from the imperial court." Deng Zilong parroted, repeated His Majesty's words, and even took out the holy decree.

The emperor's holy decree to Yin Zhengmao summed up in four words, that is, to act cheaply.

Yin Zhengmao received a total of three cheap decrees, the first was the holy decree of Emperor Longqing when he went to Guangzhou in the fifth year of Longqing, and the second was the first year of Wanli, in order to show his support for Yin Zhengmao, when Lin Afeng surrendered and was about to oppose Yin Zhengmao's viciousness of demolishing the door and moving the bed, the third is now.

Generally speaking, since the five years of Longqing, Yin Zhengmao has always been in a state of cheap acting under the imperial concession, that is, he has the power to make independent decisions, and then report to the imperial court afterwards.

However, Yin Zhengmao couldn't kill Ying Yangbo Zhang Yuanxun, that was the martial arts of the imperial court, when Yin Zhengmao and Zhang Yuanxun really met each other, Yin Zhengmao could arrest Zhang Yuanxun and escort him to Beijing.

Wuxun is a superb, and only the emperor can judge Wuxun.

"Acting cheaply, I don't know what to do, I don't have an idea to listen to Your Majesty's opinion, Your Majesty let us act cheaply." Yin Zhengmao finished reading the holy decree, and was a little helpless, His Majesty gave him the greatest support, but he didn't dare to exercise this power.

"Anyway, I can't beat it for a while and a half, report to the imperial court, anyway, from Luzon to Beijing, it's only a fifteen-day sea route, it's really not good, I'll go again." Deng Zilong thought for a moment and said.

Zhang Yuanxun immediately nodded and said, "Report to the imperial court!" How can a governor, a commander-in-chief, and a commander decide such a big matter? ”

"Okay." Yin Zhengmao approved Deng Zilong's proposal, he sat up straight and said: "My idea is to fight, no matter how difficult it is, you have to take it, otherwise these red-haired fans can enter and leave Wanli Haitang at will, and from any place, they will attack my Ming Dynasty's merchant ships, plantations, ports, and villages, as well as directly threaten my Ming Dynasty's long coastline." ”

"No matter how difficult it is, you have to take it down, take it down, and you have to keep it, but you can't just give up like when you gave up the Old Port Propaganda Division."

The rule of the Ming Dynasty in the Strait of Malacca, starting from the third year of Yongle and continuing until the end of the fifth year of orthodoxy, the control of the Strait of Malacca, since then completely weakened, the nine years of orthodoxy, Ming Yingzong ordered to build a fortune ship, to go down to the West again, that year, the fortune ship was burned by the people.

In Yin Zhengmao's view, the Strait of Malacca is the Jiayuguan of the Ming Dynasty on the sea, Jiayuguan is the first Xiongguan on land, and the Malacca Strait is the first Xiongguan on the sea.

If you want to make Wanli Haitang become the back garden of Daming, the Strait of Malacca must be in the hands of Daming.

No matter how difficult it is, it is still more difficult than when you still owe 110,000 yuan to repair an imperial mausoleum, and the Ming court can only do it for three months?

"I think that the Ming court, the will we received will only be to fight, Your Majesty does love soldiers like sons, and does not want soldiers to take risks and pay soldiers, but when it is time to be in charge of the army, Your Majesty will definitely not hesitate." Deng Zilong said with great conviction.

When Yin Zhengmao saw the emperor, the emperor was only twelve years old, at that time His Majesty was still young, and everything in the Ming Dynasty was actually on Zhang Juzheng's body, Yin Zhengmao saw from His Majesty that he was just hiding under Zhang Juzheng's wings, and when Deng Zilong faced the saint, he felt completely different, His Majesty had grown up, and His Majesty gave Deng Zilong the feeling that it was a sword out of the sheath, and when it was time to come out of the sheath, it was definitely sharp.

Yin Zhengmao believed Deng Zilong's words, but he read from the Di newspaper that Daming now has a smell of Xingwen and Wuwu and Ma Fang Nanshan, after all, the overall strategy for the North is reconciliation, he thought for a long time and said: "We have to be prepared with both hands." ”

"As for how to fight, I have an idea, we have to hire a large number of local savages, put them into the battlefield with a little training, and when attacking fortifications, in order to minimize casualties, we will use these savages."

"In summary, we will not stop attacking until the last wild man is dead."

Yin Zhengmao is a jinshi, he is a scholar, as a scholar, some of his ideas, and the generals are a little different, the Ming is not very able to accept the huge loss of sea power, because the Ming power in the sea is still weak, far inferior to the Yongle period, and now the enemy entrenched in Malacca is not the Haikou Chen Zuyi, but the well-trained Hongmaofan.

At the same time that the enemy is very strong, the current sea power of the Ming Dynasty is still very weak, and the huge casualties are unacceptable to the Ming court no matter what, so how to fight to minimize the losses?

With the hired servant army, before the last monkey is killed, Da Ming will never stop attacking, which is Yin Zhengmao's plan.

This plan can be described as extremely cruel and has no morals at all, but Yin Zhengmao is a scholar, which makes things reasonable.

"Is this not enough to be scolded by the country? Tsk, when the time comes, the Spring and Autumn Period will judge, I'm afraid that I will give the country the surname of a butcher's nickname. Deng Zilong tasted Yin Zhengmao's words seriously, and the corners of his mouth twitched, this move will inevitably lead to infamy, and it is infamy.

Yin Zhengmao said with a very strange face: "When Liangguang dismantled the door and moved the bed, my infamy had already piled up, are you still afraid of this?" Speaking of which, I have to thank Ling Yunyi, he opened the killing ring in Liangguang, and the luxury households in Liangguang praised me very much. ”

"Hahaha!" Zhang Yuanxun and Deng Zilong immediately burst out laughing, and the Luzon Governor's Mansion was filled with cheerful air.

Yin Zhengmao dismantled the door and moved the bed, but as long as he cooperated with the pledge, Yin Zhengmao would not kill, but Lingyunyi would, and he would kill people at every turn, Lingyunyi had been the governor of Liangguang for three years, and Yin Zhengmao's reputation had risen sharply, approaching the ranks of the great benevolents.

Yin Zhengmao wrote the note, Zhang Yuanxun and Deng Zilong wrote their names, stamped the letter, and handed it over to the Manila Coastal Defense Inspection Department, which will be sent to Beijing by the coastal defense inspection water flyers, a total of five letters were written, to prevent the music from being lost on the road.

At this time, Manila was completely different from Manila occupied by Hongmaofan.

Manila was established at the mouth of the Bashi River, the Bashi River divided Manila into the north and south banks, when Hongmaofan occupied, the difference between the two sides of the Bashi River was huge, only the south bank was prosperous, but now standing on the boat, looking at Manila, the gap between the two banks is very small, the townhouse is large, and there is no end in sight.

The trestle bridge of the port has changed from five to twenty-five, and in order to prevent the tide of the sea, a long large jetty extends from the mouth of the Bashi River to both sides, and the waves beat on the bluestone of the jetty, and there are bursts of waves, and the waves are sprinkled on the bluestone road, which alarms the children who run, causes bursts of laughter, and is blown far away by the sea breeze.

These children wear bamboo hats, because of the coconut trees by the sea, they always fall coconuts and hit pedestrians.

Behind the townhouses along the port are countless handicraft workshops, six percent of these workshops belong to the Luzon Governor's Palace, three percent belong to the Ming merchants, and one percent belong to the local people, these factories include sugar making, oil extraction, rice milling, textile, printing, pharmaceutical, rubber, copper smelting, etc., and even on the north bank not far from Tongxiang Town, there is a steel factory under construction.

The boat slowly sailed in from the Bashi River, and within five miles along the river, you could see a school, which was originally a church, and after Manila was captured by Yin Zhengmao, it became a school, and the sound of reading was heard even on the boat.

Along the river for dozens of miles, you will see a piece of official road post road, stretching from Mani to the distance, this is the official road post road built by Yin Zhengmao in recent years, all over the entire Luzon Island, one is to defend against the counterattack of Hongmaofan, to prevent the attack of the sea bandits, the Governor's Office can respond quickly, and secondly, it is convenient for the department stores of Luzon Island, which can smoothly arrive in Manila and start the Ming Dynasty.

Hongmaofan, who is entrenched in Mindanao, has long since given up the idea of counterattacking, counterattack? Let who go and who will not, because before their boat leaves the port, they have been informed by the fishermen of the Luzon Governor's Palace, and before they have approached Luzon, the ship of the Ming sailors has already come with the wind.

Compared with the previous governor Francisco Sander, all the people in Luzon, whether it is the local uncivilized natives, or the merchants and red hairs of the Ming Dynasty, prefer the current governor Yin Zhengmao and the rule of the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty is not only plundering, but also kingly, and the Luzon that has not changed for thousands of years is full of vitality as far as the eye can see.

"Compared with the Ming Dynasty, everyone in Luzon praised, Francisco is hated by everyone, even the red-haired fan is no exception." Luo Lian wore a bamboo hat, stood on the seawall, regardless of the eyes of others, lazily leaned on Deng Zilong's arms, stretched out her hand to the scorching sun, and the sunlight sprinkled on her body along her fingers.

"You yourself are a red-haired fan, where do you call yourself like this?" Deng Zilong sneered, Da Ming's official name for Hongmao Fan is Franc Man, but Luo Lian does not contradict the word Hongmaofan.

Luo Lian said with a smile on her face, "Don't you like my red hair the most?" ”

"Ahem, it's outside!" Deng Zilong and Luo Li'an have been together for six years, but Deng Zilong still can't stand Luo Li'an's words, and he jumps out of everything.

"Good news for you." Luo Lian left Deng Zilong's embrace, in the sea breeze, turned around, the big red skirt fluttered, she looked at Deng Zilong and whispered: "Deng Zilong! I'm going to be a father, and I've got your child. ”

"I have good news, too." Deng Zilong leaned over, he actually already knew that when he first came back to the Luzon Governor's Palace, someone was happy.

The surname of the country is Zhengmao, and the governor of the Luzon Governor's Mansion always thinks that Luo Lian, a Taixi woman, is too debauched, and is afraid that his subordinates and brothers will be deceived by this beautiful woman, so he got a few backers to be the servants of the general's mansion in Fandu, and Luo Lian is pregnant, and the Governor's Mansion knows the news first.

"Your Majesty promised me to marry you." Deng Zilong had already married Luo Lian, but he had never applied for an edict from the imperial court.

Da Ming has to canonize his wife for the civil and military of the fourth grade and above, Deng Zilong has not applied before, and it is impossible for the Ministry of Rites to approve it, Luo Lian is a Taixi person, how can a Taixi person be the wife of Da Ming?

This time Deng Zilong entered Beijing, and when he faced the saint, he begged for the edict, Luo Lian was his Deng Zilong's stepfamily, and his child was not a wild species, let alone a mongrel.

"Husband, do you know why Da Ming is so strong? Rome is dead, but China is still there. Luo Lian was extremely surprised, she stared at Deng Zilong with wide eyes, stunned, the Ming court is an extremely conservative court, that is, more conservative than conservative, Luo Lian never thought that there would be a day when the edict was issued, of course this is the holy family of the Ming Emperor, why not her husband insisted?

Deng Zilong can marry another one, Luo Li'an also asked a helper to deal with Deng Zilong in bed, according to Luo Li'an's self-positioning, according to Da Ming, she is the concubine who entertains people with sex, and according to Taixi, she is the mistress who can't see the light.

As a result, Deng Zilong now told her that the decree had been brought back, and from then on, Luo Lian could call herself a lady.

When Deng Zilong, as a pawn, personally went to Manila to investigate, he provoked Luo Lian, and he has been responsible until now.

Luo Lian didn't know how to express her surprise, but asked a question, Rome is dead, the civilization of the Ming Dynasty is still continuing, as a Tessie, Rome is the civilization that has lasted the longest and has the most extensive influence in Luo Lian's cognitive world.

But Rome is dead, and completely, the Taoism of the Central Plains, China, and the Ming Dynasty are still there.

"Why?" Deng Zilong didn't know why Luo Lian said this.

Luo Lian said sincerely: "Because, Da Ming and her husbands are all husbands. ”

In ancient times, since the Zhou Dynasty, they all called themselves China, Qin was China, Han was China, Tang was China, Song was China, Ming was also China, this China was: the Emperor paid the Chinese people to the first king, the Zhou Dynasty was mandated by Heaven to rule the people of the Quartet, and the Middle was the Mandate of Heaven; It is the emperor who is in the middle, so it is called China, and the emperor is in the middle; It is Yu Qi's house in China, since the people, is the center of the world, and China is the center of the world.
