The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 621 The Panic of the King of Korea
Just landed on dry land from a rocking boat!

In a trance, Liao Zhou still felt a little uncomfortable.

It felt as if the hard ground under his feet was still shaking slightly.

At this moment, a North Korean official came forward and greeted him.

"I don't know that angels come from afar!"

"There is a long way to go, really a long way to go!"

Liao Zhou glanced at the North Korean official who appeared in front of him, and just spoke.

"I'm here on the order of Emperor Da Tian, ​​and I'm going to North Korea as an envoy!"

North Korean officials spoke up.

"Please come to the angel of the kingdom!"

"The lower official has prepared a post house for the angel to receive, and sent someone to report the news to Seoul."

"My lord, please rest for a while. I believe that the king of the country will send someone to welcome you to Beijing in a short time!"

Hearing this, Liao Zhou just nodded slightly.

"It's work!"

When speaking, Liao Zhou was always putting on airs.

Expressing the majesty of the angel of the kingdom!
And North Korean officials are not the slightest bit dissatisfied with this.

In his opinion, the lord in front of him, as an angel from the kingdom of heaven, came here on behalf of the Son of Heaven, so naturally he should have his own majesty.

It should be carried!
If the grown-up in front of him had no airs at all and got along with him, he would feel uneasy in his heart.

The North Koreans who were watching the excitement all around, looked at Liao Zhou who was surrounded by the crowd in the center, and kept exclaiming.

"Your Excellency of Shangguo, you are really majestic!"

"Master Angel's clothes are so beautiful!"

"It's amazing, the county guard needs to go to greet the angel, and I will be so majestic in the future!"

"Those soldiers are also very tall and strong, and their clothes are really impressive!"

The guards around Liao Zhou were all elites drawn from the Ming army.

They are wearing breastplates and carrying muskets, they are very majestic!

Especially the kind of murderous aura that only belongs to the soldiers that rushes towards the face is even more frustrating!
The merchants and people in North Korea have seen all the bad soldiers of North Korea before. Where have they seen such murderous elite soldiers!

Just meeting the eyes of these Ming army soldiers, they felt full of murderous aura.

……

Liao Zhou was arranged to rest in a post house in Incheon City.

The merchants on the Incheon Wharf also officially started trading, and the North Korean laborers swarmed forward, vying for job opportunities.

The sailors of Ming Dynasty commanded the laborers of North Korea to remove a large amount of goods from the ship!

Cotton cloth, white sugar, porcelain, silk, tea, hardware products...as well as various Ming specialties such as perfume, soap, clocks, glass products, etc. were carried to the wharf.

North Korean businessmen also brought their own goods and gathered towards the pier.

The two sides spontaneously formed a market and started trading.

The North Korean merchants spoke broken Chinese, and the merchants from the Ming Dynasty were selling their goods.

Due to the admiration and yearning of Koreans for Ming, there is no shortage of goods from Ming in North Korea.

They are as sought-after as the Korean slaves in Daming!
Li Weiliang stood with Zhao Yuanwai, they looked at each other the same way, Li Weiliang spoke.

"Zhao Yuanwai, how is the preparation of the goods this time?"

Member Zhao stretched out three fingers and said.

"Three thousand men and women in the prime of life, not one of them!"

"Basically, they are all young and strong high-quality laborers. There are also many family members of criminal officials assigned by the king of the country. These people are all literate."

As for what characters they know, of course they are Chinese characters!
As the pro-son of Ming Dynasty, North Korea has the highest degree of Sinicization among the vassal states of Ming Dynasty, not even one of them.

Most of the high-ranking dignitaries in North Korea understand Chinese!

For North Korean high-level officials, Chinese is the language they use to communicate with each other.

And Korean is just something for the lowly untouchables, dogs don't even learn it!
Li Wei nodded and said.

"That's good!"

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao!"

Zhao Yuanwai nodded slightly when he saw this, and then asked.

"Did Li Yuanwai's goods arrive in place?"

Li Wei nodded.

"That's natural. The goods of my Li family, whether it's porcelain, silk, or perfumed tea, are all tributes for the royal family!"

"Quality and quality, that is guaranteed!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

After all, Li Weiliang took Zhao Yuanwai to inspect the goods.

Along the way, the two walked side by side, Zhao Yuanwai asked curiously.

"As the imperial merchant of Ming Dynasty, Li Yuanwai, do you know the purpose of sending an angel to North Korea this time?"

When Li Weiliang heard the words, he laughed and said.

"I don't know either!"

"Don't look at my Li family's name as an imperial merchant, but to put it bluntly, it's just a merchant, but it can't get involved in the court."

"The purpose of the angel's visit to North Korea will not be told to me, a businessman."

Don't say that Li Weiliang didn't know the purpose of Liao Zhou's visit to North Korea. Even if he knew, he would definitely not say anything.

Although he and Zhao Yuanwai are old acquaintances, the two parties have cooperated several times.

But he didn't know much about Zhao Yuanwai's details!
Although on the surface, Zhao Yuanwai is the white glove of the Fengyang Zhao family, but in fact it is hard to say.

Who knows what is the relationship between Zhao Yuanwai, or the Zhao family in Fengyang and the Manchus in the north?
Li Weiliang was able to bring the business to where it is today, and he was able to handle many things clearly.

……

North Korea, Wang Jing Seoul!
Seoul is not too far from Incheon, and it takes one or two hundred miles to cover it all. If you work hard, you can make a trip in one or two hours.

Daming's official ship has just arrived in Incheon, and there are fast horses to send a message to Seoul.

On the same day, King Li Wei of Joseon received the news that the Daejang Angel had arrived in North Korea.

Even if he was a little panicked, he summoned the prince of the Joseon Dynasty, as well as the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to discuss matters.

After everyone arrived at the Joseon Palace, Joseon King Li Wei expressed his worries with some trepidation.

"Da Ming sent an angel to North Korea. Is it because the emperor of Ming wants to blame this king?"

For North Korea's betrayal of Ming Dynasty and its recognition of Manchu Qing as its suzerain state, Li Wei was reluctant at all.

Now that Daming has recovered, he feels even more guilty.

If Daming sent people to North Korea to question him, based on Daming's huge influence on North Korea, Li Wei might have to abdicate early and let the eldest son inherit the throne.

Now most of the officials in North Korea are pro-Ming faction.

There are not many pro-Qing factions!

Cui Xiangyou, the left leader of North Korea, heard the words and stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, please be at ease. We have heard that the current Son of Heaven is extremely lenient. He doesn't care about the past of those ministers who once surrendered, and can still reuse them."

"That's why Daming can be restored in just a few years!"

"I think the Son of Heaven sent envoys here this time, it shouldn't be to question the king."

"Otherwise, it's not Da Ming's envoy, but Da Ming's fleet!"
