The Red House starts from Liaodong

The most powerful Japanese navy is not the shogunate, but the Satsuma clan of Kyushu.

Relying on its favorable location, the Satsuma Domain participated in the tribute trade between the Ming Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, which promoted the development of the shipbuilding industry.

Most of the Japanese pirates who looted the coast of China came from here.

The country of Kyushu is the southernmost big island in Japan. It has strong independence, and the control power of the Japanese mainland here is low. Even after three generations of governance by the Edo shogunate, there are only two pro-vassal daimyos.

The pirates at that time were not the official actions of the Japanese mainland, but the spontaneous actions of the Kyushu Kingdom.

After Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified the country, Osaka became the central city of his rule in Japan and a distribution point for materials throughout Japan.

In the hands of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, it became an economic city for international maritime trade, so the shipbuilding industry developed.

Then his ambitions were furthered.

He took the deeds of the pirates from the Kyushu Kingdom in the past as a successful reference.

But I didn't expect that China's long coastline is indeed not easy to eliminate pirates. Pirates can fight guerrillas and are hard to defend against.

Although Xiyi can also obtain Dazhou commodities from Jeju Island, it is still not as convenient as the three companies.

At the end of his era in Japan, the new Edo shogunate rose, learned his lessons, and sent envoys to please Dazhou.

The first is their Dongchang firm, which takes the meaning of Dongtu Yongchang, and trades with Korea, Japan and Ryukyu.

"More than that."

These three are government-supervised business offices.

The more local and closer to Gyeonggi, the more numb the Japanese people become.

"Dongchang's advantage is not as good as the other two. If things go on like this, there must be troubles."

Therefore, along the coasts of various parts of Fujian, the government delegated power to the squires, built forts everywhere, and strengthened the defense capabilities of the people so that they could persist in the support of officers and soldiers.

The third firm was different.

It's just a battle of interests.

For example, the United Kingdom has adopted the method of recruiting pirates, approving the pirates' plundering behavior, and curry favor with the pirates as a country, hoping that the pirates will appreciate it and let the British merchant ships go.

Domestic talents have their advantages, while foreign talents also have advantages that domestic talents do not have.

Their ancestors were engaged in business and cultivated by their families. As long as their descendants are not stupid, they can live a carefree life.

"Overseas people don't follow the rules, you can't fail the big shopkeeper."

Everyone is dissatisfied.

Originally, in history, the rebel army failed to besiege Shimabara Castle in October, and it was not until the second year that they took down Shimabara Castle, which was out of ammunition and food.

"Don't be like the village women, wouldn't it make people laugh."

In addition to internal competition, there is also external competition.

And domestic businessmen also have his advantages.

Amakusa, Shimojima, Umijima, and rebels from all over Hondo gathered, took Hara Castle as the rear, took Shimabara Castle, and then broke through Nagasaki.

Overseas Han people fell into a comprehensive retreat, and finally the whole of Asia became the traditional power of Western countries.

Several big pengs were still staring at their positions.

Juniper interrupted several people's speech.

What kind of business is best in the world?

Generally speaking, the closer to the China Sea, the more the Han people won, and the farther away from the China Sea, the Western Barbarians generally won.

As for the business competition in Asia, with the rise of the Golden State and the policy of supporting overseas Han merchants, the Han people are regaining their right to speak.

Even if there is no overseas, there is still competition, but the object of complaint has changed.

Many firms have been established in Jinzhou and Jeju Island, but the largest one is three.

However, Guorong Company and Xingguo Company can also ship spices, ivory and other commodities.

The Japanese invaders landed silently, grabbed them and ran away. When the officers and soldiers arrived, there was only a mess left.

The geographical advantage of Shimabara Castle surpasses that of Jinzhou.

From the Qing Dynasty.

Because the third company's trading partners are Annan, Siam, Sanfoqi, Chenla, Myanmar, Sumatra, Java, Bayaba and other countries and forces.

Juniper finally spoke.

This is the case in North Korea, Japan, Ryukyu, and even Bayaba. Many Han people built cities in indigenous places.

If they want to compete with overseas Han people, domestic businessmen can only make it possible if they put in more effort.

Not to mention the rebel army without siege equipment, even if the Jinjiang army came to attack, it would be difficult to attack unless they were overwhelmed.

The government only needs to set the rules, and the merchants abide by the rules of the government and rely on their own abilities, which is the luck of the country.

Then the other two will be invincible unless Dongchang monopolizes domestic products.

The taking of Shimabara Castle allowed the rebels to obtain weapons, supplies and food, and also opened the door for them to occupy the Kyushu Kingdom.

Some became kings, some became governors, and in Asian countries, some became generals, some became prime ministers, and eventually they all mastered business.

"I hope Japan's war will never stop."

Otherwise, the deeper the government intervenes, not only will the merchants suffer greatly, but the business will only wither and not be able to exert the vitality it should have.

monopoly business.

The experience and knowledge of their ancestors for hundreds of years, not to mention all kinds, but only the language, is not comparable to domestic businessmen.

The businessmen in Jinzhou are thinking about how to develop, which shows the situation of Jinzhou today.

Everyone said something to each other, and the more they talked, the more excited they became, and it seemed like the general was asking to go back.

"Bullshit."

Juniper is stressful.

The more prosperous Dongchang is, the more their children and grandchildren can find a future in Dongchang.

Shimabara Castle was built on a hillside at an altitude of 31 meters, with cliffs on three sides, surrounded by sea water, and deep wet fields and soil on the other side.

Domestic businessmen need to hire interpreters, but they can communicate directly with local people and understand other people's customs.

For example, if the old man in the family dies, he has to pay "pocket money", and if a child is born in the family, he has to pay "head money", etc. It is ridiculous.

Even Qi Jiguang in history created the Qi family army that would win every battle, but he also had a headache for chasing thousands of miles away.

This is the summary of later scholars.

Da Dang is his confidant.

From Nagasaki, the momentum is overwhelming.

In short.

Since Xiyi arrived in Asia, they came here for their own interests. Of course, they must first suppress the local Han people and regain the right to speak in business and trade.

The official supervises the business office.

As the war destroyed Japan's traditional maritime trade power, the firm headed by Jinzhou Dongchang became the only supplier in Japan.

Hundreds of goods arrived in Osaka, Kyoto, Kyushu, Hiroshima, Mie, Kochi, Kanagawa, and Chiba.

"Your thinking will only ruin Dongchang."

Da Zhou is powerful and cannot be offended.

In the local business competition, Xiyi and Xiyi did not fall behind because the three firms controlled the products of Dazhou.

The former tends to be conservative and good at governance, while the latter tends to be radical and good at competition.

They have strong domestic relations, control domestic products, and have a large number of local people and a large body, and the talents who can make it to the top are one in a million.

This situation promoted the emergence of Zheng Zhilong in history, which represented the strength of the overseas Han people, and they clearly realized that in such a situation of great competition, they cannot do without the support of the local people.

Japan's enfeoffment system has strong local control, which makes the people unable to resist, not the people's unwillingness to resist.

A big pen finally told the truth.

In addition to doing business, they also supported Luzon and Dongning Han people against Spain, and supported Ma Dayin, Yalesha, and the natives of Jiaodao against Spain.

As the big shopkeeper of Dongchang, he personally took charge of Japan's business, which shows that Dongchang attached great importance to this business.

Compared with Western countries, not only did not eliminate the pirates, but they had no choice but to compromise in the end, which shows the consumption of China.

It's just to reduce some competitors. After all, overseas Han people are indeed better than domestic businessmen in terms of sea trade.

Right time and place.

They are convinced.

The first two are large, comprehensive, and complete, while the third branch has strong independence and is not completely controlled by the head office.

The samurai purchased weapons, the daimyo's old retainers purchased luxury goods, and local Japanese businessmen purchased them collectively and then sold them in the mainland.

The country of Kyushu has always been a place with little influence in Japan. Even if it is the famous downfall of later generations, the country of Kyushu is the most important.

"We should propose to the general that Dongchang Company should be responsible for domestic products, so as to maximize Jinzhou's interests."

The original shopkeeper of the Xue family came from Juniper, which has now established a Dongchang company. Jinzhou holds 170% of the shares, and the rest of the merchants together account for [-]%.

If Juniper doesn't make progress, overseas talents will not stay behind him obediently. After all, there is only one big treasurer.

Another person was dissatisfied.

The current sea trade is not smooth sailing, but full of competition, the competition is very fierce, and the forces of all parties cooperate and fight, it is difficult to distinguish between friends and foes.

"The two of them monopolize spices by relying on business, but you want to use power, isn't it putting the cart before the horse."

"Out of the three companies, overseas people control two, and there are also many overseas Han people in our Dongchang account, and they are not satisfied."

The warship of the Satsuma clan was defeated the year before last, ending the navy of Kyushu.

He will not die, and will be killed by his subordinates sooner or later, because the strength of his subordinates has surpassed him.

Years of painstaking efforts were destroyed, not only lost prestige, but also lost strength, which contributed to his death from illness.

"Dongchang Company is responsible for countries such as Japan and North Korea. You have advantages, so why be so discouraged."

Two hundred warships, with fifty new-type warships as the core, were divided into more than ten patrol teams to stare at the excellent ports in Japan.

Winter gave them time to breathe a sigh of relief. With the footsteps of spring quietly walking in, the rioters in Kyushu were the first to move.

Therefore, Tokugawa Ieyasu ordered that ships not be allowed to go to sea, and only ships with the permission of the shogunate can go to sea for business, so as to prohibit people from going to sea, worrying that the behavior of wandering samurai would cause revenge from Dazhou.

In the end, the 20 veterans he saved were wiped out by the Zhou army in North Korea.The warships built in Osaka were also wiped out by the Dazhou Navy on the Korean coast.

It's about overseas and domestic shit.

Shimabara City originally had internal support from the rebel army, but the city was reinforced, and the sneak attack still failed, but it is not what it used to be.

Annual tribute, taxes and so on are varied.

At the beginning of this year, it defeated the shogunate's warship in Osaka, ending the Japanese navy.

The establishment of the Yuan Dynasty caused countless Han people to leave China and take root overseas.

I am even more afraid that officials will meddle indiscriminately, and domestic nobles and eunuchs are a bottomless pit that cannot be filled.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi could not be satisfied with the partial actions of the Kyushu Kingdom, and felt that he was not worthy of his martial arts, so he mobilized the power of the whole country to conquer the Great Zhou with dignity.

Only then did everyone suddenly understand, and were convinced.

After the combination of the two, Xiyi was defeated step by step, and it was maintained until the emergence of the Qing Dynasty.

The Han people are capable of writing and martial arts, and have brought advanced civilization, so the Han ethnic group is high-level everywhere.

A large amount of Japanese silver, cheap raw materials such as iron, copper, sulfur, etc., and even urgently needed grains were continuously imported into Jinzhou.

The second one is Luo Shi, an overseas businessman. Xu Ning is the big shopkeeper. He established Guorong Company, which means national prosperity. The target is Luzon, Dongning, and supports Ma Dayin, Yalesha, and Jiaodao.
Guorong Company is not a pure company name.

Such a natural fortress has built a moat.

If Dongchang has them, so do the other two; if Dongchang doesn’t have them, the other two have them.In contrast, Dongchang still needs to purchase products from the other two companies.

Everyone can see the prosperity of Jinjiang Town, and everyone wants to join it, especially the general's charisma, fairness and justice, which has attracted countless ambitious talents.

In the COSCO Marine trade, it still belongs to the traditional sphere of influence of Xiyi.

There was a fierce conflict between the two, each winning or losing.

Originally inferior to the ships of the Great Zhou, and now they have been set back for decades, so when the navy of the Jinjiang Army appeared in the Japanese waters, they easily wiped out the Japanese warships.

move.

The pricing power is in his own hands, and the right to speak is protected by force. Of course, Juniper hopes to last forever.

He also wants to improve.

Plus the organizational power left by the missionaries, and the disasters of the past few years.

It belongs to the situation where the local Han people are the mainstay and Jinzhou is the assistant. Because of the needs of the situation, it is different from the previous two firms.

Therefore, the tenacity of Shimabara Castle made the rebels miss the opportunity to expand their strength, which paved the way for the defeat.

Zhang Dehui, the general manager, is old, but his sons are active in the firm.

"It's not easy for us to have today."

In addition to the regular tax, the common people in Japan also have to perform labor labor. In the remote Kyushu country, they pay food instead of labor labor.

There are only dozens of ships a year, and this move has destroyed Japan's shipbuilding industry.

The local defense, coupled with the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers, dealt a heavy blow to the pirates and made them useless, so the remaining pirates returned to the Kyushu Kingdom.

His shogunate was soon overthrown by his subordinates as evidenced by this.

Da Pang under his hand smiled.

"The Guorong Company and the Xingguo Company have a monopoly on spices, so we should have a monopoly on silk, which is only fair."

Juniper sighed.

Seventy to eighty ashigaru, Feng Gongren, thirty blacksmiths, a total of more than a hundred people went out of the city to meet the rebels. The defenders in the city were weak, resulting in a small number of troops at the gate of the city. city.

Knife, sword, bow, arrow, cotton coat, silk, brocade, fan, oil umbrella, screen, jewelry, ivory, coral, spices...

And Japan started the war again.

It is difficult for people in the game to have a clear understanding, such as Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

When the Ming Dynasty was established, there were already Han Chinese all over Asia.

"Yeah, that's right."

So the pirates headed by Zheng Zhilong voluntarily surrendered to Daming.

"Don't you want to return to the country? You will definitely hurt yourself in the end."

The third is Li Wen, an overseas businessman, with Mao Rong as the big shopkeeper. He established a Xingguo firm with the intention of prospering the country.

170 merchant ships came in mid-air and returned with full loads. The water level was so deep that the silver became ballast stones instead.

It's a pity that the shogunate had assembled more than [-] troops to counterattack at that time.

And Tang Qing'an's layout indirectly caused the troops of the Kyushu Kingdom to leave, like a raging fire cooking oil.

Hearing the complaints of the people below, Juniper smiled, but did not follow their words.

After doing monopoly business for a long time, what I think about is not competition, but how to expand the monopoly.

Shimabara Castle seemed to be a shackle, and the rebel army who opened the shackles became a man-eating tiger.

Saga, Fuchu, Kurume, Fukuoka, Yanagawa and other cities all fell into the hands of the rebels, and the people in the Hizen, Chikuzen, Buzen, and Chikugo areas joined the rebels one after another.

Half of the Kyushu Kingdom became the territory of the rebel army.

See the time has come.

Peng Dahai didn't wait for Jinzhou's reply, and ordered arbitrarily, the army attacked, divided into two groups, and directly captured Satsuma and Osumi, intending to occupy the southeastern part of Kyushu.
