Since Zhu Youxiao's goal was to open the sea on the Songjiang River, there have been more Ming private merchant ships between Shanghai and Nagasaki.Because the cotton and silk produced by the weaving bureau in Shanghai are so good and cheap.Therefore, even if you buy cotton cloth directly from the Weaving Bureau and sell it to the Japanese country, you can earn several times the huge profit.After all, the cotton cloth in the Daming Weaving Bureau has no competitors in the Wa country, whether it is excellent in texture and low price.Therefore, businessmen who are profit-seeking by nature will naturally not let go of such business opportunities.Almost the entire Susong area of the Ming Dynasty merchants were involved in this trade, and there were even overseas Chinese merchants from Huizhou.Even though Zhu Youxiao collected high tariffs in Songjiang Prefecture, it still did not prevent them from going to the Wa Kingdom to earn huge profits.As a result, a large number of Ming merchants and their employees and servants lived in the area of Nagasaki and Hirado in the Wa Kingdom.Because Nagasaki and Hirado were the only places where trade was allowed by the Tokugawa shogunate of the Wakuni in this era.Sun Jiahe, a relative of Xu Guangqi's wife's clan, came to Huangdao in Nagasaki with a boatload of cotton, silk and soap developed by the Daming Engineering Institute and which had begun to be marketed throughout the country and the East and South Seas."
Owner, this journey is going well, right?"
Wu Daoshen, the concubine and shopkeeper who stayed in Huangdao in Nagasaki for Sun Jiahe, talked with Sun Jiahe after he arrived in Nagasaki.Sun Jiahe replied: "It's going well, now from Liaodong to Ningbo, my Ming warships are patrolling, pirates don't dare to haunt at will, and business is better than before." ”"What the owner said is reasonable, presumably the owner brought more goods this time?"
Wu Daoshen asked with a smile.Sun Jiahe nodded.For a while, when he arrived at the store, Wu Daoshen shouted: "Little sister, the master is here, bring the babies out!"
”"Daddy!"
A little girl and a little boy shouted in Daming Wudi dialect while running happily towards their father Sun Jiahe.Sun Jiahe smiled at this time, squatting on the ground and preparing to hold his child.But suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and the little girl who was running in front was suddenly shot in the face, and then fell to the ground, her fair little face suddenly turned blood-red, and her laughter stopped abruptly.Sun Jiahe was stunned for a moment by this scene.Before he could come back to his senses, he suddenly found that a knife was slashing at his youngest son again, and suddenly, his youngest son also fell to the ground with his head in a different place, and the lake pen he was holding in his hand also fell to the ground.Sun Jiahe looked back and found that a widow wearing bamboo armor was grinning in front of him, proudly stabbing his little daughter.And behind this Japanese man, in the street where his shop is located, there is also a team of soldiers dressed in bamboo armor, this soldier bravely holds spears, firearms and wolf whisks, and also waives the banner of "Shogunate Army"."
Master, the shogunate army of the Nagasaki Matsuura Domain has made the first move!"
At the same time, Sun Jiahe also heard a soldier running in front of him say to a Confucian scholar on horseback beside him."
It seems that they can't wait even more, hurry up, these businessmen from the Ming Kingdom are willing to be lackeys to the tyrant Shilin scum, either the traitor Xu Guangqi's clan relatives or other traitors' clan relatives, otherwise they will not get the goods of the Ming Engineering Institute and the Weaving Bureau, so, these people are very generous, once they rob it, they will definitely be able to make a lot of money, although the shogunate is to let us assist the Matsuura clan to drive them away, but the Matsuura clan has begun to kill people, which shows that these Ming merchants are resisting the life of the shogunate, and they should be killed!"
It was Yang Sichang who rode the horse, and at this time, Yang Sichang commanded coldly.Ye Chuchun said with some reluctance in his heart: "Is it too much to kill people directly, what if the tyrant retaliates because of this?"
”"It's just a few businessmen, and he Zhu Youxiao will mobilize the people for these people?
Shouldn't he care more about whether there will be a rebellion in his homeland?
”Yang Sichang asked coldly.Ye Chuchun nodded: "That's right!"
”Then, in order not to be suspected, he had to add again: "In this case, it is better to kill cleanly!"
Let these Ming merchants not dare to come to Nagasaki to do business, and in the future, they can only cooperate with us!
”Yang Sichang smiled: "That's exactly what we mean!"
”And Yang Sichang's words happened to be heard by Sun Jiahe.But Sun Jiahe was too late to speak.Because he was soon killed on the spot by the guns of the shogunate army under Yang Sichang, his blood had already fallen to the ground.And Sun Jiahe's concubine had already fainted because her two children were killed, and was soon ravaged by these shogunate troops and shogunate armies.As for the side of the Shogunate Army, after Yang Sichang's order, they also immediately rushed into the shops and mansions of the merchants of the Ming Kingdom."
Bang!"
Xu Zongsheng, a Ming official and merchant who was in charge of transshipment of iron ore imported from the West for the Imperial Court City in Nagasaki, was inspecting and preparing a batch of iron ore to be transported back to the Ming Dynasty, when he saw that the gate was broken open, and some soldiers wearing bamboo armor directly cut his hired workers to the ground.The shogunate army of these reactionary gentry was very short of armor, so it was the bamboo armor that was mostly used like the Japanese shogunate army.And Xu Zongsheng mistakenly thought that it was a rebellion by the Japanese people, and was about to use the Japanese language he mastered to ask questions, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, it turned out that he had been stabbed through the stomach by these shogunate troops who rushed in."
Husband!""
Husband is me!"
At the same time, Xu Zongsheng's newly married wife was also dragged out.Yang Sichang was already very happy to see the iron ore mine full of courtyards, but when he saw that Xu Zongsheng's wife was quite beautiful, and she was also a daughter of the Han family, he was even more happy, and couldn't help shouting and ordering: "Take these iron mines, and that woman, all away!"
”"Bold!"
Xu Zongsheng said a word because of this, and his mouth was full of blood.For a time, the Ming merchant gathering area in the entire Huangdao directly became a purgatory on earth, and a large number of Han people were killed, and women, children and children were not spared.The key is that the reactionary gentry such as Yang Sichang also took the initiative to kill their compatriots.Naturally, Sun Jiahe's shop was ransacked along with that of other Ming merchants, and even the fortune boat he had purchased with a lot of money was taken away."
The Japanese country is relatively closed, because it is surrounded by the sea on all sides, so there are few negotiations with the outside world, it is a country dominated by land warfare, does not pay attention to coastal defense, and the naval war is not only inferior to the emperor, but also not as good as North Korea, and its warships are not as good as my Ming ships and fortune ships, and they are inferior to the new soft sail ships of the Ming Dynasty!
Therefore, in the opinion of the ministers, the naval battle is not very difficult, and the only challenge is the land war after the landing, the reason is: the Japanese slaves have always been brave and ruthless because of the narrow island, so they have always been brave and ruthless, even if their own lives are not taken seriously, plus the Japanese country is different from Korea, they have their own emperor, and the influence of Confucianism is not as deep as Korea, so they have their own consciousness of being the center of the world, and there is no reverence for the Celestial Empire, so in the Toyotomi Hideyoshi period, there is a desire to annex my Central Plains!
Presumably, after the shogunate was forcibly borrowed seven million stone grains by my Ming Dynasty this time, while being unwilling, he was more angry, such as the arrogant Yelang, who thought he was the lord of the world, so he intended to take revenge on my Ming merchants. ”Shen Yourong was summoned to Beijing by Zhu Youxiao because he was familiar with the affairs of the Japanese Emperor, and now he also talked to the Ming Emperor and a number of important military ministers about the Japanese State in his eyes at the Privy Council.As early as the Renchen War, he and Guan Jin Xuezeng conspired to lead troops to attack the Japanese homeland, for this reason, he also spent a lot of energy to investigate the Japanese state, and even installed a detailed work, but later the plan was not put into practice, and Shen Yourong thought that this matter would be over, but he did not expect that after many years, in the current Apocalypse year, the Ming Emperor Zhu Youxiao would let the hard work he spent many years ago be used again."
Shen Aiqing is reasonable, the shogunate is dissatisfied with my Ming Kingdom is one of the reasons, in my opinion, the original reason is that our Ming Dynasty's textile skills and other skills are too advanced, the progress is too fast, and the goods are too good and cheap, so they have robbed too many people's profits, not only the shogunate is dissatisfied, but also the reactionary gentry who are dissatisfied with the imperial court, these people who are dissatisfied with our Ming court must have colluded together, and they drove our merchants, and even slaughtered our merchants, whose original intention was to block our trade, Cut off our market and make our goods unsellable!
”Zhu Youxiao said."
If this is the case, it will cause chaos in the world, a large number of unsalable government-run goods, will cause a large number of workers in Jiangnan to go bankrupt, which will directly lead to the chaos in Jiangnan, after all, now Jiangnan Shimin can now live and work in peace and contentment, all rely on the government industry to bring them a lot of income, in addition, for Jiangnan government and private industry to manufacture all kinds of advanced equipment Tianjin workers will also go bankrupt, now Tianjin workers have reached one million, if Tianjin also follows the chaos, that is, the north and the south will fall into turmoil."
Bi Ziyanxian, who has a strong understanding of the economy, said with a solemn expression, and said to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty!
In the opinion of the ministers, these foreign and reactionary gentry must not succeed!
Even if the treasury is exhausted, this widow must be taught a hard lesson!
”"Not just once."
Zhu Youxiao said with a serious expression, and then instructed Shen Yourong: "Chen Xin has led the First Water Division Battalion of the Guards Army to Nagasaki!"
You led the Denglai sailors to follow up, and sent another message to North Korea, and he also sent sailors to conquer the Japanese together, not expecting the North Korea to help, but to let him know what the national prestige of the Celestial Empire is, so as not to be uninteresting in the future like the current Japanese state!
In addition, I still say that the military discipline I have promulgated against the people is only valid for the people of my own country!
It is too late to save our Ming people living in Nagasaki, but if the Japanese people in Nagasaki are really slaughtering our overseas Chinese, according to my will, kill as many people as I want, and make the Japanese country pay a hundredfold compensation, and slaughter our overseas Chinese for as many days as possible!
”"Obey the order!"
Shen Yourong replied.
