Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 779 The Three-Year Covenant
Although Zhu Youjian had already made an idea, the details still had to be considered.

It can only be said that this unification war is worthy of being fought.

There is also a war to be fought at sea.

Daming Nanyang Company was the first to bear the brunt.

After the victory in the South China Sea, the entire European maritime forces in East Asia faced the suppression of the Nanyang Company. After losing ground this year, they finally had a decent cooperation situation.

They stabilized the Strait of Malacca and hoped to negotiate with the Nanyang Company for peace.

The Nanyang Company's fleet fought many times with the European Combined Fleet on the west coast of Brunei. Although they were victorious on the water, the company's intelligence proved that it was difficult for them to break through Malacca where there were a large number of shore-based forts and fleets.

Without this route, the Nanyang Company's fleet would be unable to travel to India and the Middle East.

This has a great impact on the company's sea trade.

After losing his temper several times, Wang Chengen had to temporarily compromise and try to negotiate with the European United Fleet.

However, the main maritime power of the Nanyang Company has completely shifted its target to Indonesia and many other archipelagos, and has begun to open up routes and overseas colonies towards the southern continent.

On the Qing side, it was the colonial expansion of the East China Sea and the Americas.

Mainly because there were no opponents, the colonial path of the Qing Dynasty seemed very bland.

The Spaniards barely count as one.

After they got the news that the Qing Dynasty had begun to explore the Americas, they were all frightened and rushed to spread the news to the mainland. Some Spanish ships even followed the Qing Dynasty fleet to explore the East China Sea, hoping to find out more about the Qing Dynasty. Has America really been found?

Spain just lost Manila in Luzon.

We cannot lose South America again.

This was the time when the triangular trade was at its peak. If South America were lost, the whole of Europe would be plunged into unprecedented turmoil.

But if this news is sent to the Spanish mainland, and then sent to Spanish Peru and Spanish New Spain, two large colonies in South and Central America, then these two colonies may have known about it for a long time.

In fact, the Spaniards now have close contacts with the Black Flag advance team in America.

It’s just limited to two people.

"It's very simple. We charge much less than the Spaniards. We give your tribes the opportunity to work in our city. They can exchange wealth through work, in exchange for iron tools and better cloth than your linen.

Our planting technology has also been learned by your tribe. You are also secretly learning our veterinary technology. You are also learning our city-building technology. You have gained so many benefits from us, which cannot be easily overcome with just a word of thanks. "

Two Spaniards with iron chains on their feet acted as translators, and at the same time they had to relay the meaning in Spanish. If there was a big difference between the two translations, the one whose translation was inaccurate or wrong would have one of his toes cut off. or fingers.

If they weren't the only two people who could serve as translators at the moment, then this kind of punishment would not be on the table in the Qing Dynasty, and would only be despised by slave owners.

A slave who deceives his master is the most desperate person, so cutting off his toes and fingers is nothing!
Although this will make negotiations particularly cumbersome, civilized communication without language barriers may cause big problems if the meaning is not conveyed properly.

"It's the same as you handing over tributes to the big tribes. Moreover, we are stronger than Spain, much stronger. In our empire on the other side of the sea in the west, the Spaniards only gave us slaves. You should be glad that we belonged to the ancient times. People of the same tribe.”

Sun Qin's words were very straightforward, which made the faces of several Indian tribal leaders opposite him turn red and tangled.

The purpose of negotiation is simple.

It was just to allow the surrounding tribes to pay tribute to the Qing Dynasty.

In Zhu Youjian's plan, there were only two optimal initial locations for the colony, and they were also given code names in advance.

One is called San Francisco and the other is called Los Angeles.

The base is not at the optimal location, but it is relatively close to 'Los Angeles', so the name of the advance team's colonial castle is now Los Angeles.

Of course, this is just a code name.

Zhu Youjian will be officially named later.The castle is located in America. Once advanced civilization takes root and develops, all surrounding tribes will naturally be affected.

In addition, the castle did not exclude Indians, nor did it forcibly enslave local residents. It was also a holy place for the surrounding tribes to treat smallpox, so the surrounding tribesmen quickly became frequent visitors to the castle.

Sun Qin would not let these workers go.

Since everyone gets along so harmoniously, the next natural step is to start collecting taxes.

"You are just as much an outsider as the Spaniards! You cannot be trusted!"

A tribal leader spoke with a red face.

Indians are thin-skinned. Even if they are leaders, the shame will appear on their faces when they say a few nonsense words.

"It doesn't matter that you're sorry for us, but are you sorry for yourself!?"

After simply retorting, the leader actually looked a little ashamed and angry.

Can this be the same?

The Spanish brought smallpox, and the Han came to treat it.

The Spanish actually controlled the territory and cities, and the Indians could only enter as slaves, let alone learn anything secretly.

The Han people have no secrets about those precious planting techniques, simple manufacturing techniques, especially veterinary techniques!

Of course, there is a big misunderstanding here.

Some techniques cannot be learned by just watching them from a distance for a while.

The most important thing for these Indians is that it gave them a national identity in the mouths of the Han people.

Tribes and tribes are different.

Although there is no reproductive isolation, they consider themselves not the same race.

But among the Han people, they, all their tribes, from south to north, the Han people showed them what the land under their feet looked like, and all the people on this land became a race among the Han people.

People from Yin Di'an.

This is what the Han people call them.

The Han treated them in a very equal manner, instead of calling them unbelievers like the Spaniards, treating them as slaves, claiming that they were sinful, and claiming that they were not worthy of being human beings.

The more civilized and powerful Han people not only called them Yin Di'an people, but also said that they had a common ancestor with the Han people.

They worship the same heaven, earth, gods and spirits!
Yes.

We are so similar.

Whether you really feel similar or you are just climbing up the pole.

Indians who have no national consciousness and identify with their race encountered the Han civilization, which was far more civilized than them and treated them well. Even if they were proud of their own race, their pride was not worth it in the face of the attraction of this civilization. Mention it.

“What can you get in exchange for paying taxes!”

The tribal leader who said this was also very red.

At present, it is basically natural to pay a small amount of tax, but they still shamelessly want more.

And Sun Qin's answer even made them a little shocked.
