At the gate of the magistrate's office, Lan Daoxing turned around and asked before leaving, "Do you really not care who is the culprit of this riot?"
"Of course you do, it's just that Jin Yiwei has already It's taken over. It's not easy to ask. Aren't there new Jinyi cavalry arriving one after another these days?" Gao Hanwen replied carefully.
"Haha, Master Gao is so kind to the city, but they can only blame themselves for their own misfortune.
Blessings and Infinite Heavenly Lord" seemed to have only remembered the slogan of his Taoist sect before leaving. After saying this, he led a group of high-level practitioners and others away.
Different from the traditional idea that every grievance has its owner and every debt has its owner, Gao Hanwen disdains this kind of point-to-point attack. Because this time, no one can escape easily.
After saying goodbye to Xu Youzhi, he went to the sprint class to lead the two new disciples, Yan Shaoting and Yan Hong, to Taixi Square.
As a Westerner with an official status of leading this group of pirates, merchants, and East India Company, Gao Hanwen, a key figure who can allow them to open up the market of the Great Ming Dynasty, is quite popular and well-received. .
But only after a while,
they discovered that
it seemed that the previous welcome and courtesy were not enough.
Several burly men with long hair and beards lined up to give Gao Hanwen a kiss and hugged him for a long time.
On this point, the two disciples behind him did not escape. Yan Song might have never imagined that his grandson could be so ravaged by these rough guys.
Originally, the two young men wanted to run away, but Teacher Gao accepted it happily and could only give them a hug and hold their breath for a while. Bathing is not popular among these people these days. Even if you come to live in Daming, the interval between bathing is always monthly or quarterly.
Gao Hanwen, who was leading the way, was somewhat better off because he was mentally prepared. The two disciples behind him had red cheeks and dizzy heads by the end. Fortunately, I persisted.
The fundamental reason is that this time, Gao Hanwen brought an offer that these people could not refuse.
That is to use these Portuguese and Spanish East India Company warships to help the Ming Dynasty implement the maritime ban and complete the construction of customs.
In addition, Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, Hangzhou Shipping Department, Zhejiang Inspectorate, Hangzhou Magistrate, Jinyiwei Dongcheng Qianhu Station and other departments jointly issued troops to suppress bandits. Anyone who smuggled was regarded as treason, and all goods were suppressed. All accounts are divided into 30 and 70. The Ming Dynasty is three, and these Thai and Westerners are seven.
The condition is,
The boatmen of the forbidden sea law enforcement ships along the southeast coast must employ mostly Ming workers, and the sailors and mates must also employ mostly Ming people. And after these registrations are made, Jinyiwei will check them every year and issue authorization orders.
These conditions were unimaginable to the Portuguese and Spanish businessmen who had been defeated after many battles with the Ming Navy at Haojingao. How can we still have such a favorable treaty after losing so many times?
In addition, it also promised Hangzhou CityShipping company’s customs commission. If the Taixi Merchant Ship comes to declare customs, 20% of the net profit will be regarded as a kickback to these people.
"Master Gao, oh, my Lord, is this true? I can't believe it. I heard that you all have to wait for the decision from the Beijing Palace. Can it be done this time?" Francis simply said I can't believe how lucky I am.
Francis came here just last month to replace the previous manager of the Maohuashi District of the East India Company. He was just a new knight, and he had not experienced the hardship of going north to meet the emperor before. I didn't expect that arriving early would be better than arriving by chance. As soon as the front-foot manager and other old men left with the fleet, the opportunity fell to him, a newcomer.
In this era, in Europe, Portugal often acted in alliance due to its kinship with the Spanish royal family. But although Henan is a small country, it is already on the rise. In various European waters, the Dutch navy is almost always competing with the Spanish and Portuguese naval fleets.
I used to think about conquering the Ming Dynasty, seizing wealth,
and then trying to conquer Europe in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, although the previous war failed,
it got the opportunity to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty military.
It is conceivable that there are so many smuggling along the coast of the Ming Dynasty every year, and that Europe needs to import so many goods from the Ming Dynasty every year. What a bright future this is. It is even possible to create a baron or even a viscount in one fell swoop.
Thinking of this, Francis kissed Gao Hanwen again excitedly.
These southeastern smuggling merchants would probably never imagine that they could just use Japanese pirates to create coastal unrest and implement maritime bans to monopolize maritime trade. Now the imperial court actually wants to borrow foreign forces to retaliate. What Gao Hanwen wants is to follow their path and leave them with nowhere to go.
