Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 415 Are You Willing To Join Daming?

Taichang already has a certain understanding of the situation in Europe.

At this moment, the European countries are fighting in chaos, which is a good opportunity for Ming to expand.

However, Daming doesn't seem to need mercenaries like Desiera!

Moreover, core secrets such as the steam engine cannot be seen by these Europeans. Once they see it, it is estimated that they will be able to imitate it soon.

After all, many things are just a matter of inspiration. With inspiration, it is not difficult to make it.

To be honest, he didn't want to hire Desierra.

However, he has learned so many things from people, and then kicked people away, which seems a bit too unkind.

How to deal with this matter?
Taichang thought for a while, then asked: "Do you really want to stay in Daming?"

It looks like it's going to be done.

De Sierra nodded quickly and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, we all want to stay here, we really don't want to go back to Europe."

Taichang asked again: "Why did you choose to stay in Daming? Don't you have many colonies overseas in Portugal? And the Dutch, like you, are rebelling against Spain. You should be regarded as an alliance?"

Uh, how do you say this?

De Sierra was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help sighing: "Your Majesty, you may not know that our Portuguese overseas colonies have nothing to do with us civilians or mercenaries, they all belong to the nobles, and we There is no benefit at all.

As for the Dutch, they can't see their own strength clearly. It is impossible for such a small country to dominate the world.

Now countries such as England and France are just using them. Once they unite to defeat the Habsburg Dynasty, it is estimated that they will attack the Dutch.

Therefore, there is no future to follow the Dutch, and it will be over sooner or later!
Your Ming Empire is different.

I have seen with my own eyes that the size and population of your Ming Empire cannot be matched by any European country.

More importantly, your guns, artillery, and warships have far surpassed those of European countries.

I heard that you even wiped out Japan.

You are much stronger than the Dutch. The Netherlands will be finished sooner or later. The future maritime hegemony will be your Ming Empire.

So, we want to stay in the Ming Empire. "

Oh, this guy has a bit of vision!

Not bad.

Although this guy is a bit suspected of flattering people, but what he said is basically correct.

The current Daming is not so strong, the future sea overlord must be Daming!
Taichang nodded slightly and said: "Well, as you can see, our Ming Dynasty is already strong enough, and our Ming Dynasty has a large population, so we don't need mercenaries."

Ah!
Hearing this, De Xie La was stunned, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

Since you don't intend to hire us, why are you talking so much?

The big ups and downs in life came too fast now, and he really couldn't stand it.

Just a moment ago, he thought that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire would hire them soon.

As a result, someone immediately said that there is no need for mercenaries!

Watt, Fack.

What's the matter?
De Xie La was stunned, but Taichang was still looking at it with great interest.

It seems that this guy really wants to stay in Daming.

OK, I'll give you a chance.

Taichang smiled slightly: "We don't need mercenaries, but we need talents in other fields."

What does this mean?
Don't do this!
Whether you want it or not, you give me a sentence!
You seem to want it for a while, and you don’t seem to want it for a while, I can’t stand it!
De Xie La couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, what kind of talents do you need?"

Taichang didn't answer and asked instead: "Did you know about the Dutch East India Company?"

Of course I know this.

Deixeira nodded without hesitation: "I know."

Taichang said calmly, "Actually, we in Daming also have a similar company, Daming Western Company."

I have never heard of this Desierra.

Because at this moment, the Daming Western Company is almost devoting all its energy to Dongying.

They are busy monopolizing the trade with Japan and developing marine resources over there, and they have no time to expand to other places.

Is the Daming Western Company similar to the Dutch East India Company?

Desierra couldn't help but asked with hope on his face: "What do you mean, the Daming Western Company needs mercenaries like us?"

Why do you keep thinking about being a mercenary?
Can't you think of something else?

Taichang shook his head slightly and said, "No, no, Daming Western Company doesn't need mercenaries either."

Oh, cakes.

Don't you do this?

Hearing this, De Xie La almost fainted.

It seemed like he wanted it for a while, and he didn't seem to want it for a while, he really couldn't bear it.

Seeing this, Taichang still asked calmly: "I heard that there is an East India Company in England, do you know?"

Deixeira nodded weakly and said, "I know."

Taichang continued to ask: "Where is their main business now?"

De Sierra said without hesitation: "They mainly compete with us in the Mughal Empire and the Safi Empire."

Oh, it turns out that the British East India Company grabbed territory in India and Persia.

It seems that this guy really knows a lot about European countries, and he also knows a lot about the overseas colonization of European countries.

Taichang nodded, and then smiled slightly: "We can hire you and your subordinates, but we don't need you to fight, and we don't need to work hard. You just need to help Daming Western Company to expand its business, understand? ?”

understand!
What you mean is to help Daming Western Firm to grab business and land!
Where can I find such a good thing without working hard and earning money?

You said it earlier!

De Siera nodded excitedly, "Understood, I understand."

Taichang then asked, "How much does it cost to hire you?"

This is really hard to say.

De Sierra thought about it, and then said cautiously: "If we need to work hard, according to the calculation of your Ming Empire, we need ten taels of silver a month, but if you don't need to work hard, you can use less. I'll go back and discuss it with them." , it is estimated that it can be halved.”

This is not expensive.

Compared to the profits of the Daming Western firms, a few taels of silver a month is not worth a sprinkling of small money.

last question.

Taichang nodded slightly and said: "I can let Daming Western Company hire you, but there is one condition."

Are there conditions?

Deixeira asked carefully: "What conditions?"

Taichang stared at him, and said solemnly: "You should also know that many secrets of a company or a country cannot be known by outsiders. Therefore, if you want to join the Daming Western Company, you must first join Daming. You can only become my people. , I can use it with confidence."

Ah!
Desiera couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this.

Join the Ming Empire?
He really didn't think about it.

Of course, he understood what Taichang meant, and they wanted them to treat themselves as members of the Ming Empire before they could use them with confidence.

This, will it work?
In fact, they are tantamount to subjugated people, and the name Portugal is a bit unfamiliar to them.

Because Portugal has been annexed by Spain for more than 40 years.

They also tried to resist, but the result made them desperate again and again. They couldn't beat the mighty Spain at all, let alone the thriving Habsburg dynasty.

For decades, they have not seen any hope of recovery.

If this continues, they will spend their entire lives in despair!

Perhaps, joining the Ming Empire is a good choice.

After all, the strength of the Ming Empire was not something that European countries could compete with.

Perhaps, one day they can return to Europe as masters!

Thinking of this, De Xie La slowly nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to join Daming, and I believe that they will all be willing too."

That's it.

Daming needs such talents right now, who are familiar with navigation, colonies, and European countries.

Daming's goal is to fight for world hegemony, but he really wants to go to Europe!
With these European natives, at least, it’s better to have people who are familiar with the way to lead the way when they seize the colony or even fight to the European continent, it’s better than blind eyes.

Of course, these people cannot be appointed immediately after joining Daming.

Taichang thought for a while, and then said to Natong: "Take him to study at the Guangzhou Academy of Arts and Sciences. Anyone who wants to join the Ming Dynasty must learn the culture of the Ming Dynasty."

Immediately afterwards, he said to De Xieira: "I will give you one year. If you want to join Daming, you must at least learn the language of Daming. At that time, if you have mastered it, you can join Daming Western Firm."
