The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 620 The Popular North Korean Slave (Subscribe)
The North Korean officers and soldiers in charge of maintaining law and order received the general's order, pulled out the sabers around their waists, and slashed at the chaotic crowd.

Use the simplest and most brutal means to disperse the mob gathered at the pier!
In the face of Japanese pirates, Jiannu and other foreign invaders, the officers and soldiers of North Korea were obedient.

Facing the obedient people of their own family, they are all able to strike hard!

The knife is sharp!
Slices of knife shadows flashed, and blood sprayed.

Some people's hands and feet were cut off, while others were simply hacked to death.

Blood was flowing everywhere, and the smell of blood was soaring!

As these North Korean officers and soldiers slashed and killed, the originally chaotic crowd also returned to silence.

The crowded pier has been cleared out of a vacant lot!

If one ignores the horrific wounds and bloody corpses in the open space, everything will be incomparably beautiful.

After these North Koreans docked for Ming's ship, the people on board could disembark to clear the rich space.

At this moment, the eyes of the businessman surnamed Zhao who was sitting on the sedan chair changed.

Because, he saw a ship in that huge fleet.

This ship is not outstanding in size and shape, that is, an ordinary sailing battleship.

However, the flag hoisted on this ship is the key to the key!

On the high mast, the flag representing the government of Ming Dynasty fluttered high!

That big banner is clearly telling everyone!

This is an official ship!
Not a merchant ship!
What you need to know is that the flag cannot be hung randomly.

If a merchant ship flies the flag of an official ship, the entire ship, from the largest captain to the sailors below, will all be punished.

After Zhao Yuanwai saw the merchant ship, his eyes changed, and the laziness in his original expression disappeared.

Getting up from the sedan chair, he dragged his fat body and walked quickly towards the pier, ready to welcome the envoys from the Daming government.

While trotting, he also gave instructions to the North Korean general.

"See that boat?"

"That's not a merchant ship, it's an official ship!"

"Don't just stand around stupidly, go to the city and notify the Sheriff, and tell him that Daming has sent an emissary!"

This is the first time that envoys have been sent to North Korea since the restoration of the Ming Dynasty.

Although I don't know the purpose of coming here, Zhao Yuanwai felt that there would be nothing wrong with going up to make a familiar face.

Regarding the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea's feelings from top to bottom are actually very complicated.

But generally speaking, I am quite happy. After all, the former Daming's father is back, and they can hold their thighs again in North Korea.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty has been restored, but North Korea has never sent people to pay tribute, the reason is actually very easy to understand.

The threat to North Korea from the Manchus in the north is too great!
As long as North Korea is so disrespectful, the Manchu Qing can send troops to drive straight in, and reward North Korea with a defense of Seoul for fun.

Before Da Ming's father showed his absolute advantage in the battle against the Manchus, no one in North Korea dared to stand up rashly and take the initiative to go to find his father.

But not daring to take the initiative to express one's opinion is one thing. Da Ming's father even sent envoys, and North Korea did not dare not to accept him.

This is why Zhu Hongyu did not notify North Korea in advance before sending the envoy.

Otherwise, North Korea would send a minister at the level of the Six Cao Judgments to receive the envoys from the Ming Dynasty if they were the most conservative.

Even a prince or chancellor is not out of the question!
……

Liao Zhou stood at the bow of the boat, the patch of a fourth-rank official on his chest was extremely conspicuous.

The black cloak behind him is hunting in the wind!
Looking at the Incheon Port not far away and seeing the chaos in the port, Liao Zhou couldn't help asking.

"Is North Korea so impoverished now?"

"Are the people of North Korea living in such poverty?"

Li Weiliang is the imperial merchant of Ming Dynasty, plus the Li family owns a large share in this fleet.

He is qualified to board Daming's official ship and face Liao Zhou's questioning.

Li Weiliang just spoke.

"Returning to Lord Liao, North Korea was originally a narrow land and densely populated. Over the years, Japanese pirates first invaded the dynasty, and then established slaves in Liaodong to grow, and repeatedly invaded the dynasty..."

"North Korea is naturally poor!"

"In addition, the Manchu Qing used troops everywhere in order to maintain its rule in the Central Plains. Over the years, they have squeezed North Korea a lot and forced North Korea to confess to it."

"North Korea is really poor now!"

With a serious expression on Liao Zhou's face, he just nodded and asked.

"If that's the case, then what kind of business does my Daming do with North Korea?"

Liao Zhou was very curious, if North Korea was really poor, what kind of business did Daming do with North Korea.

When Li Weiliang heard this, he just spoke.

"North Korea is indeed poor, but the poor are only the people at the bottom of Guizhou, and the rich and powerful at the top are very rich."

There is a huge gap between the rich and the poor in North Korea now, as poor as the bottom is, as rich as the top.

"Furthermore, I, Ming Dynasty, do business with North Korea, not only in and out!"

"We also have to buy a lot of goods in North Korea, and transport them back to the mainland of Ming Dynasty for sale."

"Doing business is all about going back and forth between the two parties!"

The North Korean goods mentioned by Li Weiliang exclude the special products of North Korea, such as traditional items such as paper, Dongzhu, Korean ginseng, Korean knives, and Korean porcelain.

The bulk is actually various minerals, such as gold, silver, copper and other precious metals.

And food crops!

That's right, North Korea is exactly the same as my third brother.

Although a large number of people at the bottom are starving to death, it does not prevent the top people from selling food to foreign countries for profit.

In addition, the real big head is actually human trafficking!
Due to the current prohibition of the Ming court that Chinese people are not allowed to be slaves, Korean slaves suddenly became very popular.

Gao Linu and Silla maids are all famous existences.

As long as you are an adult North Korean man and woman who can work, you don't have to worry about sales.

Even if those dignitaries of Ming Dynasty suddenly thought about it and stopped keeping slaves, it didn't matter.

Now Daming is short of labor everywhere.

But don't dislike too many people!
Especially the North Koreans, who can be assimilated easily, and there is no need to worry about leaving troubles for future generations of high-quality labor.

Of course, no matter how short of labor force Da Ming was, he would not want black slaves who had not been castrated!

This thing, one generation of black generations of black, cannot be assimilated.

If you don't prevent it in advance, something will happen sooner or later.

Zhu Hongyu's solution to this is that black slaves must be castrated before they can be used, as well as prohibiting marriage with black slaves, prohibiting black slaves from landing in the mainland of Ming Dynasty, etc...

However, the matter of human trafficking is disgraceful after all, and Li Weiliang can't say it directly, so it's over after a haha.

As an official, Liao Zhou didn't understand the ins and outs, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Next, Daming's fleet began to call at Incheon.

The official ship that Liao Zhou was on was the first to go up.

Lowering sail, lowering anchor, mooring...

As the pedals were placed on the pier, Liao Zhou walked off the ship in square steps, surrounded by a group of Ming soldiers.
