Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 671 Conditions
For Sun Chuanting, he doesn't care about other things, he just cares about the Liaodong War.

Emperor Chongzhen discussed with him, and he naturally thought of the Liaodong War.

After thinking for a while, he played to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the Dongjiang General Soldier is under the most pressure now. If these Dutch people can reduce the pressure on the Dongjiang General Soldier, I think it is worth letting them do it." !"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately thought about these aspects in his mind, but then he shook his head and said: "Although I can let these Dutchmen send problematic guns and poisonous food to the past, the most basic point , These Dutch people are all sailing boats, but currently there are no sailing boats on the capital side, and the few sailing boats captured are all in the Luzon Expeditionary Army."

That is to say, if the Dutch use Fuchuan to send things to Jianlu, this does not conform to the logic of normal Dutch people.Thanks to Emperor Chongzhen and Liu Weichao talking a lot, otherwise, he would never have known such details.

Sun Chuanting was similar, he didn't know much about Xiyi, and he didn't even think about poisonous food.At this time, after hearing what Emperor Chongzhen said, he pondered for a while and proposed: "Then can these Dutch people be our internal correspondents in the country of Wa and provide us with information about the country of Wa?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, then nodded and said, "This is possible. Is there any more?"

Sun Chuanting thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "My minister is dull, I can't think of anything more for the time being."

Hearing his words, Emperor Chongzhen was a little disappointed. Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, the eunuch on duty beside him happened to be Wang Chengen, the eunuch in charge of the chief of ceremonies, and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Long live, since this Dutchman wants to do something for you." My Ming used it, as did the Portuguese, and they all happened to be involved in the Annan turmoil. If this is the case, they can be ordered to assist the court in quelling the Annan turmoil!"

As soon as he said this, Sun Chuanting was at a loss.On the contrary, Emperor Chongzhen slapped his head, thinking of this matter, and immediately smiled and pointed at Wang Cheng'en and said, "You should remember, okay, okay, that's a good idea!"

"The world map of the Long Live Lord, the servants all remember it in their hearts, and the servants just remembered the mention of the Long Live Lord." Wang Chengen heard it, and quickly played back, which made Emperor Chongzhen laugh out loud.

Regarding this, he was not wrong.The situation on Annan's side is exactly in the North-South dispute, and the Portuguese and the Dutch just happened to support one side.

This matter was actually mentioned by Liu Weichao when he introduced the situation, and it was not news from Dongchang.When Emperor Chongzhen marked the various forces on the world map, Wang Chengen could naturally see it.Therefore, he had this proposal.

At this time, upon being suggested by Wang Chengen, he ordered Wang Chengen to immediately hang the world map on the screen, and discuss matters based on the world map.

In the past, Sun Chuanting's gaze was really not that far away, but now he was compared with Wang Chengen, he felt a little awe-inspiring, and immediately warned himself that the current Daming is no longer the former Daming, and it is time to open your eyes and see the world!
Thinking of this, he also became serious, looked at the power distribution map on the world map, and at the same time thought, after returning home, he had to do his homework and recognize the situation in the world.

After looking at the map, let alone, the distribution of power in the world is clear at a glance.Among them, there are quite a few territories related to the Dutch colonists, extending all the way from Europe.

Sun Chuanting just doesn't understand the world situation, but his mind is still very flexible.After looking at it, he immediately played to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I think that the Netherlands, as well as Francine...Portugal, can indeed be used, so that we can shorten the time for our Ming Dynasty to expand its territory!"

Afterwards, the three of them discussed the world map for a while, and finally came to a result.

Emperor Chongzhen did not go to meet these Dutch captives in person, but notified them of the Ming Dynasty's request through the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment.

First, the Netherlands recognizes Ming as the suzerain, and its consuls must be conferred by the Emperor of Ming before they can take office, otherwise they will be invalid.

Second, Ming, as the overlord, has the right to recruit the Dutch army to serve Ming, and the Netherlands cannot refuse.

Third, the Netherlands is obliged to protect Ming overseas foreigners without any injustice.

Kui Yi and the others, after hearing these three items, looked at each other and were immediately dumbfounded.

Although they have been in the East for a long time, they know that these three items are the basic requirements for the vassal state of Ming Dynasty.However, making the Netherlands a vassal state of Ming Dynasty is always emotionally unacceptable.

Because they have always known that the Orientals are inferior to them, and it is most normal for them to be colonized by them.

This is also the understanding. Once they arrived at Daming's side, they aggressively demanded trade, or they would fight you.It's just a pity that Zheng Zhilong happened to rise up and was taught a lesson by Zheng Zhilong relying on the court.

But even so, they were actually unconvinced, thinking that the reason why they couldn't beat Zheng Zhilong was only because Zheng Zhilong was a local snake.Generally speaking, they still feel that they are stronger than the Orientals.

Now, although they have become the captives of Daming, they still feel that it is because of the large number of people and boats on Daming's side. If they have the same number of people, they may not lose.

Under such psychological expectations, it is naturally a bit difficult to accept that they should be inferior to Daming.

Not to mention, they have no way of deciding on this matter.

Therefore, after the Minister of Rites made the announcement, the Dutchmen all looked at each other, and no one answered.

On the side of the Minister of Rites, he did not urge them to make a statement, but continued to announce: "The Ming Dynasty will open up foreign trade in the future. As long as it is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, it can go to the place designated by the court to trade. Pay with one hand, and deliver with one hand, as long as the money Enough is enough, there is enough goods, no limit!"

Hearing this, Kui Yi and the others' eyes lit up immediately.

The person they most wanted to trade with was originally Daming.Now that he has seen the prosperity of Ming Dynasty with his own eyes, his desire for trade is naturally more urgent.You can think with your toes, how much money they can make if they can trade with Daming!
The Netherlands is actually a country of commerce. In layman's terms, it is a country dominated by a group of businessmen.They take money very seriously, to what extent?

To the extent that you can sell your country!
This is not an exaggeration. In the original history, after the rise of the Netherlands, Britain followed closely, and the two countries began a war for maritime supremacy, that is, the Anglo-Dutch War.

In this war, the Dutch actually had the upper hand at the beginning.And guess what?

The British had no money to fight, and they were going to lose because they had no money to fight again.As a result, the British borrowed money from the Netherlands, and then went on to fight the Netherlands.

Such an unbelievable thing, think it is impossible, right?

In the end, the Netherlands really borrowed it!

In the end, the British used the money of the Dutch to defeat the Dutch, so incredible!

This shows how greedy they are for money!
At this time, when these Dutch people heard that they could do business with Daming, they were immediately moved.

At this time, the Minister of Rites went on to say: "If the vassal state is attacked by other countries, Daming, as the suzerain state, will also consider sending troops. In short, if the Netherlands is recognized as the suzerain state, then Daming will protect the vassal state!"

The Dutch were already moved. When they heard this, to be honest, they didn't pay much attention.After all, the Netherlands is thousands of miles away from Ming Dynasty. Even if the Netherlands is attacked by the enemy and needs help from the suzerain country, the day lily will be cold by the time the suzerain country rushes over.

But, no matter what, this is also a reason for the Netherlands to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty!

The Dutch looked at each other, all focusing on Kui Yi.Although they also knew that Kui Yi had no right to agree, but no matter what, he was their leader, and they hoped that Kui Yi could make a statement.

Seeing that they were not straightforward, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment sneered and said, "You don't have to drink a toast, and you don't eat fine wine. Based on their rebellion and alliance with Daming, they can kill you first, and then go to destroy that Bada Via, in the future, as long as it is an enemy of Ming Dynasty, it will destroy the country! Although the Netherlands is far away, it will be punished!"

What he didn't expect was that Kuiyi ignored these threats at all, and just looked at the Minister of Rites and asked: "My lord, please excuse me, if it is really a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, it can have the right to trade and will not be restricted. What? As far as I know, it was very difficult for vassal states to do business with Daming!"

After hearing the translation, the Minister of Rites replied: "Your Majesty is wise, the policy towards foreign countries has changed, and we will vigorously develop maritime trade in the future, which is very different from before."

After a pause, he added: "Actually, it doesn't matter at all whether you become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty or not. It's just that His Majesty is kind enough to give you a chance. In Portugal, His Majesty thinks that they are always more obedient and will notify them soon. , can be a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty."

When Kuiyi and the others heard that Daming would vigorously develop maritime trade in the future, it was all money!When they heard that the Portuguese would enjoy such treatment, they immediately became anxious.

Kui Yi quickly asked: "My lord, if the Netherlands is willing to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, can we not use the Portuguese as a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty?"

Needless to say, he wants to monopolize.

As for the answer, of course it is impossible.

This time, Kui Yi was in a hurry.If the Dutch do not agree, then the Portuguese will monopolize Ming's sea trade, and all the money will be earned by the Portuguese. How can this be possible?

And Daming also said that if the Portuguese were attacked, the Ming army would help.At least around Daming, they will definitely not be able to grab the Portuguese.

At this time, the Dutch were robbing Portugal's colonies in Brazil, Sri Lanka and other places, and the two sides were fighting.
