Chapter 741 Batavia New Deal ([-])

This time, there was no need to summon Kapitan and Lei Zhenlan, and people crowded over spontaneously.

After completing the ceremony of entering the city, the Marine Corps also began to line up to maintain order, guard the surrounding area, take over the defense of the former Governor's Palace, and do a good job of guarding against the Dutch who were stubbornly resisting.

Liu Yu and Li Yan, since they were going to let Niu Erde be favored by this big man, they didn't stay long in front of the crowd, and went straight into the governor's mansion, and only called Jiabidan and others from the original city into the governor's mansion.

Niu Er didn't feel nervous when he looked at the thousands of people gathered over.He is also the person who has done a lot of great things in the Brian'an area, and he is also in charge of the military and political affairs of tens of thousands of people.

I have just experienced the standard of welcome when I enter the city. Of course, there is nothing to be nervous about the people in front of me who are Chinese like myself.

Thinking that if he was the governor of Java in the future, he would have to deal with these people in the city frequently.

This is the first time I have dealt with these people as a person from the imperial court. I feel that it is important, so I use the accent I learned from the former sugar factory slave workers in Boliang'an in the past few years, according to the accent of Li Yan and Liu Yu. There are three chapters of the contract.

After the three things were finished, there was an instant burst of enthusiastic applause in the square.

These three things are indeed what they are most concerned about right now.

In other words, within the scope of the court's jurisdiction, they are most concerned about.

As for the passenger flow of hotels and restaurants; middlemen in foreign trade and so on.Although it was due to the changes caused by the imperial court going to Nanyang, it seems that the imperial court has no obligation to resolve these matters, so the expectations are not too high.

Besides, it's just a rough convention now.It seems that the governor sent by the imperial court is very talkative. He also said that if you have any grievances in the future, you can directly send them to ask. expectations have increased a lot.

Outside the governor's mansion, when there was thunderous cheers.

Inside the Governor's Mansion, Liu Yu and Li Yan are being greeted by Chinese Kapitan and Lei Zhenlan from the former colonial government.

After a bunch of nonsense, lies and nonsense, Liu Yu didn't expose it, let alone nonsense, and said directly: "Although you are close to the Dutch, you have been Jiapidan and Lei Zhenlan, but you still know your ancestors' characters, I have also read some books by the sages. Did you have a "Moving Maoling Order" until the Han Dynasty?"

Including Lian Fuguang, everyone had met Liu Yu before.

Before Liu Yu went to Europe, he had been to Batavia and lived in Lian Fuguang's house.

I also saw the scene when Liu Yu went to the Wuzhi fans workhouse in Batavia and mocked them in front of the ledger.

But no one expected that after meeting again, Liu Yu would be so straightforward and directly threw out the "Order to Move Maoling".

Lian Fuguang has read the book and knows this thing.

And some Lei Zhenlan didn't know very well, and didn't know what was going on at all.

But listening to Liu Yu say something like "I think my ancestors can still recognize their characters", I feel that if I don't know, I might offend the two people in front of me.

However, those who knew it were directly shocked into a cold sweat.

Is the Xindao court really going to swallow up his own property?

I thought that once the matter here was over, and the imperial court sent a governor to take over, I would do another operation.

I never thought that I would meet a prince and a marquis directly. Although everyone loves money, it is impossible to directly bribe at this juncture, right?

Besides, with such a high status, if you want to eat all your property, why would you accept bribes?
Lian Fuguang was in a cold sweat, thinking that if this was the case, then what was he trying to do by taking such a huge risk to revolt?
Isn't it just to make an excuse for yourself after the imperial court comes?Although there is no need to die, if the money is gone, it would be meaningless.

While panicking, Liu Yu said, "Lian Fuguang, please tell them. Last time I stayed in your manor temporarily, I saw that you also have a study. I think you have read books and can read."

Lian Fuguang swallowed his saliva, and when he said what the "Order to Move Maoling" was, those few people who didn't know what it meant before turned pale in an instant.

This is not the time when the Dutch ruled. Facing a marquis or a prince of the court, they must kneel on the ground to answer.

At this time, I just felt that my back was full of sweat, and my clothes were wet, sticking to my body sticky, I couldn't breathe, and I was sweating more and more.

For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely stagnant, and no one dared to ask questions, nor did they know what to ask.

After a long silence, Liu Yu said: "Actually, to put it bluntly, you are the top snakes of Nanyang. As the saying goes, a raptor cannot cross a river, and a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. The imperial court wants to control Nanyang. If you don't leave, the imperial court will feel uneasy."

"Lian Fuguang, let's talk about you instead of others. Your mother is a Christian and has a good relationship with Westerners; your brother-in-law is from Kapitan in Ambon; your wife's family is from Cirebon. Lei Zhenlan. In the whole of Nanyang, it can be said that you are related."

"Is it not an exaggeration to say that you are powerful in Nanyang?"

"There is one thing to say. When the Dutch were here, they needed you to be Kapitan and Lei Zhenlan to rule the Chinese. Now that the court is the court of the Chinese, do you still need you to be Jiapitan and Lei Zhenlan? "

"You are actually useless to the court."

"I guess you have thought about this, and you probably have the idea that having money can make ghosts turn mills. But since you have read the book, you also know a story in "Moving Maoling Order"?"

"The hero Guo Xie found the general Wei Qing through his relationship, and said he was not powerful. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sighed: Those who can directly entrust their relationship to the general are not powerful. So what is a strong man like?"

"So, don't try to use your brains on this matter. The most taboo of the court is the collusion between military and businessmen. If soldiers can use money from merchants, the court will definitely not accept it."

"Trust us, you are putting us on the fire. What will His Majesty think of the businessman entrusting the relationship directly to the governor of the court, the navy and the deputy envoy of the Privy Council?"

"Trust someone else, do you think I dare not accept this money, how dare they have the courage to accept this money?"

"So, don't think about it. Let me talk about the policy of the imperial court. You should listen to it first. If you have any ideas, you can bring them up in a while."

A few simple words directly blocked all the roads of Lian Fuguang and others.

And these words are very serious. Lian Fuguang and others dare not accept such big hats as collusion between military and businessmen, and soldiers taking money from businessmen.

Lian Fuguang quietly wiped his sweat, and boldly said: "Your Highness, Jinghou, how can I be considered a powerful man? How can I compare with the hero Guo Xie? If I really have that ability, why should I be bullied by the Dutch?" Like this?"

As he spoke, he cried bitterly in his heart.

Xin Dao said that he is not so powerful, the hero Guo Xie can find the general directly.

I'm in the imperial court, who can I find?Who cares about me?Who knows me?

General of the Han Dynasty, what level is that?I'm afraid that the Lord Marquis and the prince in front of him will not be able to catch up, right?

Not to mention finding someone at the level of a general, but going to the Fujian Jiedu envoy, can you get in their door?

Most of my family property is taken by the imperial court, so what's the point?
What did you say about moving to Maoling? My family’s roots are all in Java. After moving away, wouldn’t I be a fart?The imperial court respects officials again, and if they go to other places, isn't it just being squeezed by others?How can I fill the gates of the yamen with this little money?

Regarding his own property and family, Lian Fuguang could only bite the bullet and say that he was really not a powerful man, and he was not qualified to say that the raptors could not pass the river.

If I can make Batavia unable to live without me, if I can make the imperial government's yamen enter the Batavia court's rule but not enter Batavia, then that's fine.

But how can I have this ability?

Yes, a bunch of relatives in my family are all Jiapitan and Lei Zhenlan from all over Nanyang, and at the last time they are also fans of Wuzhi.

But it is said that the in-laws should be in the same family, so is it possible that I, a Kapitan in Batavia, went to marry a slave worker in a sugar factory?Isn't it normal to marry each other?Lian Fuguang said in his heart, I don't believe that you nobles are not married to each other?The emperor didn't say to marry his daughter to an old farmer, did he?
I am a dignified Batavia Kapitan, the highest status of the entire Nanyang Chinese, it is not normal to find a few well-matched people?
There are too many things I want to say in my heart.

But I really didn't dare to say it out of my mouth, so I could only falter and say that I was just a little ant.

Liu Yu smiled and said: "Do you think you can change anything by debating the definition of tyranny? Don't think that the imperial court is interested in your wealth. Why is there no excuse for the crime? You were a taxpayer and Jiapidan before, you know what you have done, and there is some reason for the court to punish you for your crimes."

"But after all, I still gave you a chance to make meritorious deeds anyway. Do you think that without you making meritorious deeds and causing trouble in the city, I would not be able to attack Batavia?"

Lian Fuguang was so frightened that his head was sweating, how dare he say anything else?I just kept slandering in my heart, saying that the imperial court was indeed inferior to the Dutch.

He didn't know his own destiny in the original history, and he still feels that the Dutch are law-abiding, have lawyers, and are reasonable.

After changing the court, they can be brazen and say directly, "There is nothing wrong with wanting to commit a crime."

However, there are cheering Batavian people outside, which proves that Liu Yu is right. The court itself is a Chinese court, and there is no need to engage in some Jiapidans. Even the local indigenous Jiapidans are more meaningful to the court than They are big.

There are thousands of well-armed troops out there, with more artillery and larger warships than the Dutch.It is also true that Batavia can be captured without him having to cause trouble in the city.

Thinking of all the strange things these days, Lian Fuguang had a glimmer of hope again, thinking, yes, if the court really wants to swallow his family property, why give himself a chance to make meritorious deeds anyway?
With this glimmer of hope, Lian Fuguang hurriedly said: "I dare not think so. The soldiers of the imperial court are majestic and mighty, and the navy is huge. Naturally, they can conquer everything. Batavia is nothing to worry about."

"Just...just..."

He didn't know what to do, he could only hope that Liu Yu would really let him go.When the Dutch ruled, they did not have the power to resist, or the courage to resist.Now that there is a new government that is stronger, bigger and more army than the Netherlands, how dare they resist?

People are knives and I am fish, even Fu Guang thought, that's all, what else can I say at this time?
