Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 693

After hearing Luo Sigong's explanation, Taichang couldn't help frowning and thinking.

What should I say about this?

The Viceroyalty of Brazil was originally a Portuguese colony.

The Governor-General of New Spain, the Governor-General of Peru, the Governor-General of New Granada, and the Governor-General of La Plata are all Spanish colonies.

Question, was colonial rule right?
The colonization and plundering of countries in the world by European countries is a shameless act of robbery!

How could he support such a thing?
Originally, he was not aware of the colonial issues of Portugal and Spain.

When Luo Sigong reminded him like this, he actually remembered.

Daming absolutely cannot support this shameless act of colonial plunder!

Even if Portugal and Spain became Ming's vassal states, he could not support such banditry.

Moreover, this is also a good opportunity to change the world pattern.

What if the countries of continental Europe cannot plunder resources from the Americas?

They certainly cannot develop as fast as in history, and even with the full support of Ming Dynasty, the American Indian tribal alliance can develop better than European countries!

Yes, just do this, and you will make a difference in this world!
Thinking of this, Taichang couldn't help but smiled and said: "You did a good job in this matter, why did you do such a stupid thing?"

what?
Luo Sigong couldn't believe his ears.

Is this a good thing?

Alas, the emperor treats them as courtiers so kindly.

He froze for a moment, and then he couldn't help being moved: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, are you trying to comfort me?"

Taichang couldn't help crying and laughing: "What comforts you, I'm serious, you really did a good job in this matter."

Luo Sigong still couldn't believe it: "Is it really possible to do this?"

What will work?
Taichang didn't answer and asked instead: "Do you think it's right for the European barbarians to rob and kill and seize colonies all over the world?"

Luo Sigong said without hesitation: "Of course it's not right, they are acting like robbers."

Taichang continued to ask: "Then do you think our Daming can support this kind of banditry?"

Hearing this, Luo Sigong couldn't help being taken aback.

That's right, knowing that what they did was an act of banditry, how could Daming support it?

He was stunned for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what do you mean, don't we have to return the Brazilian governorate to De Sierra?"

It doesn't work either.

He can't keep his word.

Taichang shook his head slightly and said: "No, the Governor's District of Brazil, including the Governor's District of New Spain, the Governor's District of Peru, the Governor's District of New Granada, and the Governor's District of La Plata, we will eventually hand it over to De Sierra and Carinho To manage.

However, we cannot support their colonial plunder.

We can hand over these places to them, but they must follow the rules of Daming.

They cannot colonize and plunder the Americas. They can only help the Indian tribes develop mineral deposits here, just like Daming, so as to obtain a share of the proceeds. "

Uh, this, can De Sierra and Carinho agree?
You know, if you grab it directly, it will be [-]% of the profit. If you pay dividends, how much can you get?

The difference is not that big in general.

Luo Sigong thought for a while, then asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what if Deixeira and Carlinio disagree?"

Do they dare?

Taichang said indifferently: "If they disagree, then this king should not be king. Is it difficult to find a few people who want to be king?"

This is indeed.

Who doesn't want to be king?

Of course, these two cannot be kicked out casually.

After all, it is not easy to train such two puppets, and it is even more difficult to find such two people who know everything in Europe.

Taichang thought for a while, then waved his hand and said: "Okay, I'll talk about other things later, you go and call De Sierra and Carinho in first, and I will talk to them alone."

Hearing this, Luo Sigong got up quickly, bowed his hands and bid farewell.

Taichang thought for a while, then stood up, walked to the main seat behind the desk and sat down.

You can't be so polite with these two guys.

They haven't become kings yet, so they have to take advantage of this time to make good decisions and educate them.

Soon, De Sierra and Carinho walked in hand in hand.

They didn't know that Taichang had moved from the seat beside the coffee table to the main seat behind the desk.

It was normal for Taichang to meet them from the main seat.

They all cupped their hands and bowed: "My ministers see the emperor."

Taichang nodded slightly, and then pretended to be apologetic: "De Sierra, do you know that the Indian tribes here have great opinions on you Portuguese."

This is normal, since it is a colony, can you expect the natives here to have no problem with you?

De Xie La quickly nodded and said, "I know."

Taichang asked again: "Carlino, do you know that the Indians in the Viceroyalty of New Spain, the Viceroyalty of Peru, the Governorate of New Granada, and the Governorate of La Plata have more opinions on you Spaniards."

People not only have opinions, they often gather crowds to rebel.

Carinho nodded quickly and said, "My minister knows."

Taichang sighed slightly, and then asked again: "Do you think that if you do this, can you rule these colonies for a long time?"

Who knows.

Neither Deixeira nor Carinho had thought about this question yet, and they didn't know how to answer it.

Taichang then said earnestly: "Do you know that what you do is leaving disasters for future generations, no matter how primitive or backward the people in these colonies are, they will always develop to a certain level after decades or even hundreds of years.

Think about it, what would happen if they could make muskets and cannons themselves? "

Uh, I'm afraid the result will be miserable!
Portugal and Spain don't have much population, and the population of their colonies is at least ten times that of their native population.

If people in these colonies know how to make muskets and cannons, they will definitely not be able to suppress them.

It is also true that one day, they will lose control of the colony.

Especially for small countries with small populations like Portugal and Spain, it is impossible to suppress the resistance of the colonies.

When De Sierra and Carinho heard this, there was a look of panic on their faces.

It would be terrible if the people in the colonies of their two countries could make muskets and artillery.

Taichang immediately asked again: "You should have seen all the subjects of the Indian tribes in North America.

If Ming wants to colonize North America like you, do you find it difficult?

Have you ever wondered why I don't do this?

I can tell you clearly that colonial plunder like robbers is wrong.

Doing so will only lead to hatred.

You have also seen the result of me conversely helping others develop.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if I recruited 100 million Indian warriors to go to Europe to fight against the anti-Habsburg alliance, they would not have a little opinion. "

Indeed, the Indian tribes in North America were absolutely loyal to Daming Na and obeyed what they said. The 10 horses they sent this time proved it.

What does the emperor mean by these words?

Is it to let them abandon the American colonies?

Hearing this, De Sierra and Carinho showed embarrassment on their faces.

This American colony is not a little big, but it is a territory many times larger than their homeland!
Seeing their expressions, Taichang couldn't help but secretly sighed.

Alas, these people in Europe are already accustomed to colonialism and plunder, and the bandit gene has almost penetrated into the bones of each of them!

I still have to reverse the thinking of these two people.

Taichang immediately said earnestly: "You should also know that you are not the heirs of some king, and you have no foundation.

You can't always count on Daming to support you, after all, Daming is tens of thousands of miles away from Europe.

If you want to win the throne, or even secure the throne, you have to build a solid foundation for yourself, otherwise, you will be kicked out sooner or later. "

Indeed, those nobles in Europe are not vegetarians.

If Daming couldn't back them up, and couldn't send troops to support them in time, what would happen?
When the two of them heard the words, there was a look of panic on their faces.

OK, almost there.

Taichang saw that these two guys were afraid, so he took advantage of the situation and taught: "Think about it, how do you build a solid foundation for yourself?
Obviously, Continental definitely won't work.

Because the European aristocrats are basically relatives, if you seize their kingship, other people will definitely help and attack you.

You still think that others can help you, but that is impossible.

This solid foundation you have built only in America.

If you can learn from Ming Dynasty and no longer engage in colonial plunder, but help the development of the Indian tribes here, they will be grateful to you.

At that time, wouldn't it be easy for you to recruit hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops to fight for you?
And, don't just stare at the petty profits you've snatched.

If you can really help the Indian tribes here to develop and let them willingly farm land and develop mineral deposits for you, even if you take a [-]-[-]% bonus, it will be much more than just grabbing money.

You guys, can you understand this truth? "

After hearing the words, De Sierra and Carinho thought about it carefully, and it really made sense.

If they can win the support of the Indian tribes here, then they don't have to worry about the counterattack of any European nobles.

How many troops can the Spanish and Portuguese nobles pull?

30, 40 is enough.

It is impossible for nobles from other countries to support them with all their strength. It would be nothing if they could send tens of thousands of horses to help.

And the Indian tribes here can easily summon millions of troops!

When De Sierra and Carinho heard this, they couldn't help but looked at each other excitedly.

In the end, it was Carinho, a money-greedy guy, who asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, what percentage of the bonus do you think we should take?"

Count you acquaintances.

Taichang thought about it carefully, and then said decisively: "How about this, Da Ming will help them develop in the early stage, and the dividends obtained in the future will be divided into [-]% for the Indian tribes here, and the remaining [-]%. How are you feeling?"

Thirty percent should be a lot, the key is to recruit people here to help.

Both De Sierra and Carinho cupped their hands again and again: "We all listen to the emperor."
