The sun never sets in America

Chapter 270 African Development: Wanghai City

The end of August in East Africa has reached the hottest season of the year.

On the African savannah, all things compete, wildebeest herds, antelopes jumping, lions and leopards patrolling.

After a full meal, there was a group of hyenas waiting to eat the leftovers left by the lions.

On the other side of the East African continent, in Madagascar, it is a different situation. Apart from the indigenous dynasty on the island, only the southwest coastal area has a civilized atmosphere.

The funny thing is that this so-called civilization was brought by the Han people, or to be more precise, it was brought by a group of careerists from Lanfang.

Wanghai City is an earthen city made of loess bricks. There are seven or eight old-fashioned artillery forts on both sides of the city head, which are in a cross shape, so that they can provide cross fire when the indigenous people attack the city.

(The old cannons that were eliminated by the Portuguese colonists in Mozambique were bought by Mr. Tang for peace of mind)

As for the forts that guard the coast, are there any? In fact, there are two, but they are basically useless and can only be used as decoration to scare others.

Wanghai City is divided into several areas, namely the outer city where indigenous people live, and the inner city where Chinese colonists live.

Then it is divided into military depots, granaries, watchtowers, and the most important city lord's mansion.

(According to the rules, Mr. Tang was appointed as the city lord and was in charge of civil affairs and property. Deputy Wang was appointed as the deputy city lord and was in charge of the army. This was also what Mr. Huang specifically explained at the beginning. The purpose was also very simple, to prevent Mr. Tang from getting bigger.)

The watchtower is composed of three floors. An observation tower is set up on the top floor to monitor the whole city. Soldiers are hidden on the middle and lower floors to deliver messages.

The City Lord's Mansion is said to be a mansion, but it is actually a tile-roofed house with two entrances. There are only a dozen local slaves cleaning up inside, and dozens of guards to protect Master Tang's safety. (Local natives were demoted as slaves)

(The guards were specially requested by Master Tang, euphemistically called to show the magnificence of the city lord and to deter the barbarians. At first, Deputy Ambassador Wang was unwilling to allocate troops to Master Tang, but considering his feelings, he could only allocate thirty people to Master Tang. Serve as guards, but put a few more trustworthy people inside as surveillance)

In addition to these, there is the newly established Wang Haijun. The so-called Wang Haijun is actually the original escort.

This was proposed by Master Tang on his own initiative, so he said to Deputy Ambassador Wang:

"Now that we have established a foothold in Madagascar, we have opened a mansion and built a city. Most of our men are young men from Lanfang. It is inevitable that they will feel homesick. If we still use them as guards, we are afraid that there will be resentment. When the time comes, one of us will be homesick. If people think together, if ten people think, then there will be hundreds of people, and so on, what should we do..."

"But if we let him go back home, I'm afraid Mr. Huang's great cause will be exposed, and then all the heroes will arrive. What should we do?"

Master Tang didn't lie when he said this, it was indeed what he said from his heart. After all, there was his wealth in it! !

Yes, in the eyes of Master Tang, Wanghai City has been his hard work. If it is gone, I am afraid that all his plans will come to nothing. Then it will be difficult to return to Lanfang and serve that ghostly Huang. Master, can't you do it? ?

When Deputy Wang heard this, he felt that it was somewhat reasonable and simply replied:

"Now that Master Tang has a solution in his mind, I can only act accordingly!!"

Then they greeted each other with fists clasped, but everyone could see that Deputy Wang was very reluctant to bow, and it could even be said that he had no choice but to do so.

Master Tang slapped the folding fan in the palm of his hand with a "pop" sound, and said in a heroic tone:

"Change the guards into the army, treat them with national courtesy, divide the land slaves and the strong men, dare to make them refuse to die!!"

"Master Wang, after the army is established, you still need to be in charge. I am a scholar and cannot see blood. After all, Confucius said benevolence and righteousness!!"

"Brush", the words benevolence and righteousness appeared in front of Deputy Envoy Wang.

At the beginning, Deputy Ambassador Wang was still very unhappy when he heard that Master Tang was planning to build an army. After all, wasn't this a naked attempt to seize his military power? ?

Now seeing Master Tang still acting like he is the leader, after Master Tang left, I couldn't help but sigh:

"Master Tang, you are still a kind person!!"

"It turns out I was the one who blamed him wrong!!"

From that day on, Deputy Ambassador Wang trusted Master Tang more and more. He would discuss every major matter with Master Tang, and he would accept Master Tang's advice without fail.

Even when Master Tang said that he would hold a ceremony to divide land and slaves in the city lord's mansion, he agreed without even thinking about it.

…………

On the school field that is half an acre in the city lord's mansion, there are hundreds of young men from Lanfang standing.

At this moment, everyone on the school ground was in a happy mood and beaming with joy. After all, just a few days ago, the Lord of Tang City issued a notice saying that he would allocate fields and native slaves to them around Wanghai City and let them all become masters.

"Brother Jun, how much land can we allocate this time? They said it was five hundred acres. Is it really that much??"

"Brother Jun, what do you think of these indigenous women? It is said that they will be divided among us!!"

"Brother Jun..."

Zhang Jun really couldn't stand Xiaowu's scratching noise next to him, so he directly said:

"A child is hairless, and if he wants to stir up a big vat, he is not afraid that his little caterpillar will fall into it and he won't be able to get it back..."

Xiao Wu didn't understand it at first, but then he suddenly realized something and replied with a blushing face: "Brother Jun, I have hair, look at it."

As he said this, he was going to show off his enemy's clothes.

But Zhang Jun gave Xiao Wu a slap in the face, which turned into fifty cents.

"Brother Jun..."

"Brother Jun, you said..."

"Stop shouting, Master Tang is here!!"

“City Master Tang, why didn’t I see it??”

Xiao Wu looked around but didn't see Master Tang.

At this moment, I heard shouts from behind the stage:

"The Lord of Tang City has arrived!!"

"City Lord Tang has arrived..."

As the call ended, Mr. Tang, wearing a white silk gown and a white top hat with black brim, walked out, holding a folding fan in his hand.

Master Tang looked around at the tall and tall guards below, with a smile on his lips and a glimmer of desire deep in his eyes.

Then he took the copper trumpet handed over by the servant and shouted:

"The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying!!"

"Weijiahai is returning to his hometown..."

"The warriors are here to guard the four sides..."

"What is a warrior, what is a hometown!!"

"That's it everyone!!"

Master Tang's face turned red and he shouted passionately. The high-pitched voice spread through the entire city lord's palace through the loudspeaker.

clap clap clap...

The uncultured guards below just felt that Master Tang was really good at talking and spoke very nicely. One person took the lead and hundreds of people applauded.

Master Tang directly opened his sleeves, revealing his thin but strong arms, and pointed the horn at his mouth:

"We are all loyal and loyal people. We just came from poor backgrounds and had no choice but to come to Africa..."

“But we must have the backbone to overcome all difficulties and build a new home!!”

Master Tang first said some long-winded but encouraging words, and then got to the point:

"Everyone comes to Madagascar for wealth, reputation, and future generations, and so do I..."

"And what should we do if we want our descendants to last forever? We have no other ability, that is to rob, rob those local sons of bitches!!"

"We conquered Wanghai City some time ago, built the city, and acquired the territory, but in my opinion, it still doesn't work. Why? Because the brothers didn't get the benefits, I feel uneasy!!"

When Master Tang said this, he even shed tears and his nose was about to drip out. The guards below were very moved. Look, this is our city lord. What a good person. He does all good things for us first! !

Master Tang sucked back the snot from his nose with a whoosh, his throat moved slightly, and then he continued to shout in a rough voice:

"I won't say too much nonsense. Anyone who beheads five or more people will be rewarded with 600 acres of land, three Huangman maidservants, and twenty slaves..."

"If you behead five or more people and three or more, you will be rewarded with 400 acres of land, two Huangman maidservants, and fifteen slaves..."

"Anyone who beheads three or fewer people will be rewarded with 200 acres of land, one maid, and eight slaves..."

(Yellow indigenous people on the island)

After hearing this, there was a lot of discussion below.

"Brother Jun, I killed four. According to what City Master Tang just said, there are four hundred acres of land, two maids, and fifteen slaves..."

“Brother Jun, I’m going to get rich!!”

Xiao Wu excitedly cheered to the frosty Zhang Jun next to him. In his opinion, this time he came to Africa, he was lucky enough to make such a big fortune and have slaves. This, this is not the old days of Mr. Huang.

What's more, there are two maids. Xiao Wu can't imagine how good he will be in the future.

This was something he never dared to dream about, and now it has come true! !

Zhang Jun didn't say anything. At this moment, he was already thinking about how to take Ajie over to enjoy the blessing.

At this time, Master Tang saw that the atmosphere below was almost complete, and said again:

"This little land is nothing, and this little female slave is nothing!"

"Let me tell you, as long as we expand to the island every time in the future, everyone will have a share of the territory we conquer. By then, I am afraid that there will be a group of maids in the house and the fields will not be able to see the edge!!" "Haha..."

The members of the escort team below laughed one after another, and even the calmest Zhang Jun smiled.

Seeing this, Master Tang started what he really wanted to do:

"I discussed it with Deputy Ambassador Wang and decided that since we all have families and farm slaves on the island, the company will help everyone bring their families to the island for free so that they can enjoy their happiness in our Wanghai City..."

"Finally, considering that we are always using the name of the escort team, it is too ugly. People who don't know better think that you are servants."

"So I decided to create Wang Haijun. From now on, everyone will be a soldier, and we will honor our ancestors and have a system!!"

"Everyone, please tell me, okay?"

Master Tang continued to ask with a loudspeaker in hand.

"it is good……"

"City Lord Tang is a good man, we will all listen to him from now on!!"

"Yes, City Master Tang did it for our own good, I did it!!"

"I did it too!!"

Zhang Jun wanted to refuse several times, but in the end he couldn't bear the cheers of others and could only remain silent and express his agreement.

Master Tang looked at the lively audience on the stage with a sinister smile on his lips.

In a luxuriously decorated house on the other side, Deputy Ambassador Wang was having fun with two Portuguese prostitutes that Mr. Tang bought for her, completely unaware that her authority had been unknowingly... Replaced by Master Tang.

.............................................

Boom boom...

Old fire bombs hit an indigenous tribe's military formation a hundred miles west of Wanghai City.

When the smoke dissipated, it was so miserable.

In the words of Mr. Tang later:

"The mountain of corpses turned into the sea of ​​blood, the stumps were connected to the muscles, the men died in their hometown, the women were humiliated, the children cried... What a tragic word!!"

Passing by a tribe that had been burned to the ground, Master Tang rode on a Portuguese horse and shouted with a sad face:

"What a sin, what a shameless act!!"

After the crying was over, Master Tang ordered people to search for property and take away everything valuable.

Its beautiful name is:

"The sages taught that wealth cannot be discarded or destroyed. What I am doing now is also following the example of the sages!!"

Faced with those who insulted women and killed and robbed them, Master Tang just said lightly:

"It has happened in ancient and modern times, no need to be surprised!!"

When meeting some beautiful and beautiful women, Master Tang would always say:

"This girl is beautiful, why don't you hurry up and send it to Deputy Ambassador Wang!!"

When he saw those precious gems and artifacts, Master Tang also said the same thing:

"Such wealth is rare in the world. I am a scholar and a disciple of a saint. I regard money as dirt. Why don't you give it to Deputy Envoy Wang!!"

Deputy Wang, who was looking after the house at the rear, looked at the beauties, gold, silver, jewelry, and even some sacrificial trinkets used by the indigenous tribes that were constantly being sent to him. He grinned and said happily:

"Master Huang always told me to keep an eye on this Master Tang. Now it seems that Master Huang is not as smart as he thought. Isn't this Master Tang very good!!"

"Not greedy for money, not greedy for sex, not greedy for fame, this, this is a great person!!"

"It turns out that I am actually jealous of him. I really shouldn't be!!"

Deputy Wang's face showed regret.

(When Master Tang sent the battle report from the front back to the rear, he promoted the victory under the wise command of Deputy City Lord Wang. Deputy Wang was so elated that he repeatedly called Master Tang a good man and a great man!!)

On the front line, Master Tang's wisdom spread throughout the Wanghai Navy, and everyone praised him.

Because Master Tang once saw an injured soldier and personally helped him mount his horse and led him along.

He was also called Master Tang by some soldiers who liked Master Tang. Because he carried a folding fan with benevolence and righteousness, he was also called Lord Renyi and later also called Wanghaigong! !

Master Tang was noncommittal about this, and even explained angrily:

"I am lucky enough to have Mr. Huang as my arm, and now I have Mr. Wang as my assistant. How dare I claim the title of public servant or master? You have done me a disservice!!"

As soon as this statement came out, it was quickly spread throughout the army by those who were interested. Everyone praised Master Tang for his benevolence, loyalty, filial piety, and great deeds, without forgetting his master! !

After such publicity, in less than a week, Master Tang took the seats of Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang and Mr. Wang Haigong. It can be said that it is not magical and fast! !

.............................................

"Master Wang, Master Wang!!"

"What's the matter? Didn't you see Mr. Wang that I was watching a peep show??"

Deputy Wang walked out of the back hall, saw Luo Kui in front of the hall, and scolded him with a dissatisfied look on his face.

The peep show that Deputy Ambassador Wang mentioned was a white West Asian Arab slave that Master Tang exchanged with the looted property in Mozambique. He was good at belly dancing, which made Deputy Wang feel itchy and he came to see it every day.

Luo Kui looked at Deputy Wang, who was disheveled and with a red face, and knew that he had used some Indian magic oil again.

Looking at Deputy Ambassador Wang, he could only shout:

"Master Wang, people in the city now only know him, Master Tang, but they don't know you, Master Wang!!"

“Master Wang, please wake up quickly. If this continues, who has the final say in Wanghai City? It’s not certain yet!!”

"Master Wang..."

Luo Kui kept telling Deputy Ambassador Wang about the current serious situation.

Deputy Ambassador Wang was sitting on the soft lion skin couch sent by Master Tang. The buttons on the top were wide open, revealing the black chest hair. He replied with blurred eyes: "Master Tang is a good man. Look, this lion skin , this ivory chair, and that Persian carpet, which one was not sent by Master Tang..."

Deputy Wang pointed randomly and counted the rare things in the room with a satisfied expression on his face.

He has lived half his life and followed Mr. Huang for fifteen years, but he is not as good as half of the people here. What do you want Deputy Wang to think? !

And that Master Tang gave him things, money, and beauties every three days, including local beauties, Western beauties, and Arab beauties. That belly dancer was so swaying that it really made people numb.

What a wonderful day it was, it was so exciting that he didn’t even want to go back to Lanfang! !

Luo Kui suddenly knelt down on the ground with a plop and kowtowed to Deputy Wang. After kowtowing a few times, he raised his head and persuaded Deputy Wang:

"Master Wang, at this time, the whole Wanghai City calls people named Tang as Duke Tang. Master Tang, it is Duke Wanghai. What about you, if you go out now, who will recognize you..."

"If this continues, will Wanghai City's surname be Huang or Tang!!"

"Master Wang..."

After saying that, he continued to kowtow "bang bang".

At this time, Deputy Wang seemed to be a little more awake. He pointed at Luo Kui who was kneeling under him and asked, "Is this really the case?"

"It's absolutely true, everyone in the city knows it!!"

Luo Kui raised his head and answered Deputy Wang's words with sad eyes.

Deputy Wang was also panicked at this time. He was greedy for money and lust, but he was not a fool. At this time, he suddenly remembered what Mr. Huang said before leaving:

"Master Tang is a treacherous person. Although he has talents and abilities that can be used, he cannot use them all. You can listen to him for the time being on major matters. After everything is settled, you can alienate this person. After I come, you can make plans!!"

Thinking of this, Deputy Wang's back suddenly got wet. He almost missed Mr. Huang's important event.

I really regarded Master Tang as a brother, but now that I think about it, is his surname Tang really a brother? ?

Looking at everything around him, Deputy Wang suddenly woke up and understood the reason for everything.

Then he asked Luo Kui in a pretended calm tone: "How many brothers are there who are loyal to us in the city??"

Luo Kui replied with some embarrassment:

"Back to Mr. Wang, Mr. Tang used your name to transfer many people away a few days ago, and they were all scattered. Now, I'm afraid there are only thirty people available!!"

Thirty people were exactly the number of people he had escorted Master Tang some time ago.

Thinking of this, Deputy Wang looked horrified and asked in an almost trembling voice:

"What can you do??"

Luo Kui raised his head and said with murderous eyes: "What harm does it matter if we do what Xiang Yu didn't do again!!"

Boom...

There was thunder outside, and soon it began to rain heavily.

　Monthly pass, monthly pass, there is a shortage of monthly pass
