The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 408 Connecting the World

Chapter 408 Connecting the World

Due to the Hamada Yahei incident, the relationship between Japan and the Dutch is now in a tense situation, and the war is imminent. The Japanese General Zhengyi also imagined that Ming could help Japan and the Netherlands when they went to war.

Without any surprises, the share of copper ingots became 200 million catties during the next trade negotiation, the price dropped by 50%, the supply of rice became [-] shi, and the price remained unchanged.

Huang Sheng also gave General Zhengyi many business opportunities. Daming purchased a large number of dried seafood, such as sea cucumbers, abalones, scallops, jellyfish skins, shark fins, dried shrimps, shark and whale meat, and so on.

Huang Sheng accumulated a lot of wealth through sea trade and sea plunder, and he had a lot of money in his hands. Of course, he had to buy high-protein food and transport it back to Daming.Nowadays, because the food of the people in the Huang family system is meaty, they often have seafood, poultry, eggs and meat to eat, and the food they eat is much less.

In the past, an average strong laborer in the Ming Dynasty could eat about two catties of grain a day. A shiny face.

When Huang Sheng came to Japan, Li Guozhu was of course warmly received. Huang Sheng stayed in Li Guozhu's private port on Hirado Island for three days.

Li Guozhu built a bastion at the port that is exactly the same as Zhongming Fort. It was named "Lijiabao" after his surname, and it was equipped with twenty artillery pieces. The granary in the fortress was enough to store 20 shi. The work of an engineer.

Huang Sheng attended the unveiling ceremony of the "Huaxia Big Bank" and "Lijiabao" branch, and depositing and withdrawing silver in Japan has become possible from now on.

Merchants from various countries who went to Daming to do business could withdraw cash from any place with a semicolon by virtue of the money order issued by the "Huaxia Big Bank".

Now all the merchants think cash is too inconvenient, and they are all willing to use "Huaxia Tongbao" gold and silver coins for settlement, because there is no fire consumption, and the profit is much higher.

More and more businessmen and ordinary people use "Huaxia Tongbao", and the "Huaxia Big Bank" branch that continues to take root has sprung up like mushrooms after rain. It is no longer a dream to connect the world.

Huang Sheng has already considered negotiating with the Spanish governor in Manila next year, trying to open a "Huaxia Big Bank" Manila branch there, and Fei Fu can also consider doing so.

Huang Sheng led the largest navy in Asia to go around in a large circle from Nanyang and Dongyang to snatch more than a hundred merchant ships.

It was already mid-October when I returned to "Huaxia Island" again. After a year of continuous immigration, there are 10,000 to [-] military and civilian households, [-]+ people, and more than [-] mu of farmland.

Because the temperature of "Huaxia Island" is suitable, the land can not only be double-cropped, but also can be interplanted with many economic crops. Next year, after meeting the supply of "Huaxia Island" military and civilians, there will be a surplus of more than 20 shi of rice and wheat.

The military and civilian output of the Huang family system is already sufficient for self-sufficiency, and the continuous import of food is entirely for the tens of thousands of Han people in the Ming Dynasty.

Huaxia City has already taken shape, and will soon become a city with a population of more than 20. Since the place was operated with an open concept from the beginning, "Huaxia Island" has prosperous commerce and numerous shops.

Of course, most of the merchants are from Daming, because they don’t have to worry about transportation issues. Nanzhili merchants can even place orders and pay for them in Nanjing, and the Huang’s fleet will deliver the goods from Manila at Wangjiangmen Wharf at the agreed time.

Merchants settle and deliver orders in "Huaxia Island". Maybe the real delivery is completed thousands of miles away in the capital, and it is also possible in Manila thousands of miles away. The modern business model has already begun to take shape here.

Under the care of Zhao Rui and Zhao Shimin, brothers and sisters of "Huaxia Island" can be said to never pick up lost items and never close their doors at night. The tax rate here is transparent and very few. Westerners and Orientals flock here.

Foreigners bought cheap and high-quality goods in "Huaxia Island". As long as they hired "Huaxia Haiyun" to deliver the goods, they could reach any port about [-] miles away. "Compensation for the value of the goods.

The credit of "Huaxia Big Bank" has gradually been recognized by Ming merchants, Huaxia Tongbao has also begun to circulate, and even Eastern and Western merchants have begun to use it.

"Huaxia Investment Company" has successfully sold [-]% of the houses in just over two months. On the contrary, the mid-to-high-end commercial houses are sold out first. The customers are all businessmen who come and go. Bright glass windows.

No one thinks it's too expensive, everyone thinks it's worth the money.

This is normal. With the construction cost and the low land price, "Huaxia Investment Firm" just added [-]% to double the profit on the basis of the cost price. Compared with the housing prices of later generations, it is simply a free gift.

Many wealthy businessmen did not buy the villas they were looking for, so they had to use the method of ordering in advance to ensure that the second phase of the "Huaxia Investment Firm" project's mid-to-high-end commercial houses had only completed infrastructure construction, and half of the houses had received a deposit of [-]% of the price. Also for selling off-plan houses.

Zhao Rui, Bai Mudan, Lan Meiniang and other members of the board of directors were dumbfounded, and then they remembered the joke that the master said that there is no need to complete the whole building to buy and sell.All of them worshiped the omnipotent master even more.

On November [-]th, a sentry horse boat came from Huangjiawan Island, and Heihu, who was already a general, actually came here as a messenger himself.

Huang Sheng didn't ask anything. When he saw Heihu, he scolded his head and covered his face: "Heihu, you kid still think you are a big soldier? It's been a long time since I've beaten you? A general has to go on a sentinel boat for four days and three days. You don't want to live at night?"

Heihu knew he was wrong, and he also knew that the adults were worried about what would happen to him, so he said with a smile, "My lord, the military situation is urgent, and the humble job is afraid of making mistakes!"

"Military situation, isn't it just that slaves have entered the customs, Yuan Dudu has five years of ability to flatten the Liao Dynasty, what do you want to worry about?"

Heihu froze on the spot for a moment, he said suspiciously: "My lord, how did you know that Jiannu entered the customs? Could it be that you can pinch and count?"

Huang Sheng is not able to pinch and count, but knows the history. He knows that Jiannu will enter the bandits at the end of the second year of Chongzhen, but he doesn't know the exact date.

Seeing the general Heihu rushing to "Huaxia Island" in a hurry, he naturally guessed that something big happened to Daming. What could be bigger than Jiannu's entry into the pass?

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me why you came here, how the situation in Beizhili is, and what happened to the court. I'm in Ding You, and the court can't lead the army without Duoqing!"

Even though Huang Sheng said that, he was very excited in his heart. He messed up the history. Fortunately, he didn't completely change the history. Fighting is for the sake of arrogance.

The opportunity to wait depends on whether Houjin will try his best to detour for more than [-] miles and enter the Daming Pass like in history. If Baxiao still does this if he is bold and reckless, Huang Sheng's opportunity will come.

Hei Hu, who came here anxiously, was not in a hurry when he saw the confident and calm face of the Patriarch, and he began to explain the cause and effect in detail.
