Now North America is not so important to the British, because the British industrial revolution has not yet started, and only a few British farmers came to North America.On the contrary, the British were more jealous of the trade profits in the Caribbean Sea. They directly robbed the Spaniards of Jamaica, established Port Royal, and became a den of pirates.

(In May 1655, a British fleet jointly led by William Bean and Robert Venables occupied Jamaica. In 5, according to the Treaty of Madrid, Spain officially ceded Jamaica and other places to Britain, and the British immediately ceded Jamaica The island served as a base for its piracy, and was once the "capital" of Caribbean pirates until Port Loire was destroyed by an earthquake in 1670.)

To put it bluntly, the eyes of the British are still fixed on the trade of the Dutch. They still want to learn from the Dutch to make a fortune in trade, but they haven't found their own way yet.

"Give loans to the British and let them go to war!" Zhu Youjian quickly found another object of financial aid.

Chapter 735: British Dilemma

National relations are actually the same as interpersonal relations. As long as you understand the other party's mind, you will have the initiative.

The current ruler of the United Kingdom is Charles II, who has a nickname "King of Joy".What's the meaning?It means that this person pursues "hedonism". To use a proper example, this guy wants to be Liu Chan.He is very smart, knowing that the royal power is no longer what it used to be, so he dealt with all parties cautiously, wise and safe.

However, at this time, Britain was facing interference from external forces, coupled with the defeat of the Anglo-Dutch War, because of some reasons, it was at odds with the Netherlands and France.Charles II was a lecherous man with countless mistresses, and he liked horse racing. Many horse racing rules of the British royal family came from him.

At this time, the Great Su Kingdom has built many new cities, and the government agencies have also been transferred to "Sunny City" (Kansas City), because it is named after more than 270 sunny days a year, and it is also named "Zhongjing".

In Sunny City of the Great Su Kingdom, Li Yan received the British envoy George Monk, who represented Charles II, to discuss diplomatic matters with the Great Soviet State, the largest power in North America.

George Monk is an old-fashioned British general, and the minister of Charles I. He finally brought old Charles' son back to China for restoration. He was thinking about how to kill the people in the parliament. He would consider the "Mayflower" more than 100 people. descendants of man?

"Dear King Su, I am the envoy of His Majesty King Charles of the British Isles. I came here specially to seek peace." George Monk said while looking at the clothes and attires of the people at the scene, and he tried his best to find Da Ming from them. shadow.

Li Yan sat on the high seat, pretending to be deep, did not speak, but raised his arm falsely.This action is also very common, and basically everyone can understand it.George Monk froze when he saw that the other party didn't make a sound, because he didn't know what language the other party was speaking.It stands to reason that he brought an Indian translator along the way, isn't it right?

"The famous General George Monk, Great Soviet Union welcomes you!" Unexpectedly, a familiar face dressed in gorgeous Ming Dynasty costumes came out from the side and rear of the hall, and followed him in broken English. George Monk says hello.

Not to mention, when this person appeared, King Dasu on the throne actually stood up and bent down to let the person walk straight to the throne.

What's happening here?George Monk was completely bewildered.

"General, this man is so familiar." James Brown, as George Monk's deputy, muttered softly.

""Buzz! " With one click, a gold coin flew down from the throne, and was held in George Monk's hand in an instant.

"I think Britain should also have such logistics!" Zhu Youjian, who was sitting on the throne, looked proud and proud.Even his sitting posture is oblique, no matter how comfortable he is.

George Monk let go of his palm, and a golden object appeared in his hand. He didn't need to look carefully, he knew that it was the legal currency of Ming Dynasty, and it was also the highest amount.But at this moment, even if George Monk was familiar with it, he still took a closer look.

"Ah!" James Brown screamed in surprise.

On the obverse of that gold coin, the portrait of the man on the throne was impressively printed, no wonder George Monk felt familiar.Even if the Europeans don't know how to identify the appearance of Ming people, they can already tell that they are meeting His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

"Kowtow to His Majesty the Emperor of Ming!" George Monk responded very quickly, and through the in-depth exchanges with Ming over the years, the British were already familiar with some of Ming's etiquette.

At this time, Britain did not have the confidence to say no to kneeling and worshiping, especially when seeing the emperor of Ming Dynasty, he had to kowtow and kneel obediently.

"Get up." Zhu Youjian waited abruptly until the British had finished kowtowing three times before saying.

"The envoy doesn't know what is the relationship between the Ming Empire and the Great Su Kingdom?" As a diplomatic envoy, George Monk must have figured out the basic logic.

"This is the former prime minister of the Ming Empire, and the current first king of the Great Su Kingdom——Li Yan." Zhu Youjian solemnly introduced Li Yan, and at the same time, he was telling the other party that the Great Su Kingdom and Daming had a different relationship.

"Don't you just want to say that this place is completely covered by you!" George Monk thought darkly.

"May I ask His Majesty the Emperor Ming, is the eastern coast part of the territory of the Great Soviet Union?" George Monk immediately thought of this question.

"Of course, the Indians are of the same family as our Ming people, and they are descendants of China. The Sioux family and our family have the same surname, and North America is naturally our own land." Zhu Youjian said this without blushing and heartbeat Anyway, no matter whether others believe it or not, first of all he has to believe it himself.

"As far as I know, Indians are still barbarians." Of course, George Monk didn't believe what Zhu Youjian said. Who doesn't know what kind of virtue the aborigines here are, can they be the same as you Ming people?

"Is the general doubting the power of my Dasu Kingdom?" Li Yan was unhappy, and he had to flex his muscles.

"No, no, the British Empire believes in the strength of the Great Su Kingdom." George Monk quickly corrected.

Just kidding, isn't the strength of the Dasu Kingdom equal to the strength of Daming!It's purely taking off your pants and farting, who can't see it?

"Daming and the British Empire are traditionally friendly states, so naturally they won't hurt their peace over a small matter. What do you say, General?" Zhu Youjian answered the words, directly threatening them.

At this time, Britain's internal and external troubles really need a strong foreign aid, and Ming Dynasty is the best target.The United Kingdom is known as the "shit stirrer" of Europe. In fact, the relationship with all countries in the European continent is average, but it wants to intervene in the affairs of the European continent to realize its existence.

"Since the Great Su Kingdom is a traditional friendly country, can the ships of the British Empire be allowed to get supplies along the eastern coast?" George Monk turned his head and ignored the British on the East China Sea coast of North America.

"It's easy to say that the Great Su Kingdom needs to build several shipyards along the eastern coast, and the related technology needs to be purchased from the British Empire. At the same time, we are also very willing to sell the most advanced warship technology to the British Isles." Zhu Youjian knew very well what the British wanted what do you want.

First, the British want trade rights, especially the sudden emergence of the Great Su Kingdom, which is a big deal; second, the British want military assistance from Ming to help them defeat hostile forces on the European continent.

"The envoy will go back and tell my king, may the friendship between Daming and the British Empire last forever!" George Monk felt like a cat's paw when he heard it, and there was no time to wait.

As a matter of national destiny, George Monk came and went quickly.

But this incident disrupted Su's plan. If the eastern coast was prioritized, they would not have the strength to visit the indigenous people in the Great Lakes region for the time being.In fact, the most concentrated place where North American aborigines live is the Great Lakes region, such as the famous Mohicans.

"Your Majesty, will this delay our affairs?" Li Yan asked Zhu Youjian after George Monk left.

"Have you forgotten what system your Su country was founded on?" Zhu Youjian said leisurely.

"Slavery!" Li Yan blurted out.

"Where's the slave?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"" Li Yan was speechless.

Chapter 736: The Destination of the Japanese One

It has been some time since Hattori Zhengchen came to Dasu Kingdom. As a normal man, he fell in love with a woman from the Sioux tribe.

This woman is young and has a special charm, especially behind the clothes of the Ming people on the boat, she has a wild and gentle beauty of a Japanese girl, these two temperaments are perfectly combined on her body.Hattori Masato had seen quite a few beauties, but none of them were as perfect as her.

At dusk that day, Hattori returned to Ligao City to rest. He could only sit on the stone outside the city wearing the clothes of the Ming army and watch the women of the Sioux tribe go about their business.This kind of time is too rare for Masato Hattori.

For a while, he was a little fascinated.

"My lord, have you taken a fancy to her?" A ninja asked behind Masato Hattori.

"Baga! How could I fall in love with her? I only like our Japanese women." Hattori Zhengchen's subordinates saw through their thoughts and were a little annoyed.

"But there are no Japanese women here, and there are even very few Ming women here." The subordinate retorted: "There are only indigenous women here, and they are the only ones who don't dislike us."

Hattori Zhengchen was at a loss for words for a moment, he knew what his subordinates were telling the truth, the only Ming women here were the family members of high-ranking officials and the medical staff of the army.Fortunately, the military discipline of the Ming army was strict, and some things were always under control.But the Ming people obviously couldn't control the Japanese people. Those Japanese people have always been open about these things, and they are more accepting of indigenous women who have not yet integrated into civilization.

Indigenous groups provided soldiers to go out to fight. Immigrants from the Ming Dynasty, especially those sent by various surnames, became the actual clan heads of various ethnic groups in various places. They had the right to distribute labor, use a large number of slaves, spread culture and various agricultural and industrial technologies .And the army of new immigrants from the Ming Dynasty is mining in the western coastal enclosure, vying to be the mine boss.

According to the new policies of the Soviet Union, the government will not levy mineral taxes on a large area in the west within five years, and mine them at will.This is tantamount to deliberately giving the new immigrants the opportunity to make a fortune, and various myths about getting rich overnight have spread throughout North America and Ming Dynasty.Ming people crazily believed in these dreams of getting rich, and flocked to North America desperately.

When batch after batch of immigrants came ashore, batch after batch of goods from Ming Dynasty also came to San Francisco at the same time, and at the same time, there were more transport ships sailing far and wide in the Pacific Ocean.However, the immigrants are all gentlemen, and there are very few women.Unlike the Japanese, Ming people prefer to get rich, and they have little interest in indigenous women for the time being.

What are the Japanese doing?The Japanese were all placed on construction sites in various new towns, working hard, but they had no chance of benefiting at all.The hard-working laborers basically gave all the money they earned to the aboriginal women, which promoted the consumption concept of some aboriginal people, and they finally began to like the beautiful clothes of Ming people.
