Chapter 1304 Tokugawa called the domain
Gao Huan's new weapons also has another purpose, which is to enable countries to form a stereotyped image of better weapons and more advanced weapons.
The entire expo lasted for three days. In addition to opening to delegations of various vassal states, it was also open to the people. The purpose was to cultivate a group of people who love military affairs and care about military affairs, create a good social atmosphere, and allow more people to enter the military industry in the future.
The expo was very successful. Each meritorious house received large orders, not only selling a large number of guns and cannons, but also selling nearly ten gunboats and dozens of armed merchant ships.
The Gan Dynasty encouraged the vassals to participate in overseas expansion. When countries saw that the Luzon State gained benefits in expansion, there was something.
In addition, newspapers have been promoting recently that Western powers divide the world, reporting today where Britain occupies, and reporting tomorrow where France occupies, has a sense of anxiety in the hearts of all countries.
Seeing the world being divided up, all the vassals were anxious and they all hoped to go out to sea as soon as possible and get a share of the pie.
Sun Kewang gritted his teeth and bought three gunboats and ten merchant ships, and bought them at a higher price, so that Gao Huan could only give him three ships from the active warships.
In Ganchao Palace, Gao Huan was quite happy. She sat behind the table and listened to Du Yinxi's report. How many orders had the expo been won in total.
At this time, Du Yinxi finished reporting, "Your Majesty, this military industry expo is very successful. I think you should take this opportunity to hold another commodity expo?"
Gao Huan smiled and said, "My dear proposal is good, but wait a minute! This time, countries spend a lot of money, and it is estimated that there is not much money anymore. The commodity fair can be booked at the end of the year. After various countries collect taxes, the invitations will be expanded, not limited to the various vassal governments, but also merchants and rich people from all countries!"
This time, countries purchased weapons and bleeded heavily. Gao Huan felt that they should be allowed to rest and could not catch them and keep masturbating.
Du Yinxi smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"
After the expo, the ambassadors of various countries returned to the country. The State of Luzon took the first step, sending ships to eastern Africa, and then landed in Madagascar.
Following the Luzon State, Sun Kewang couldn't wait to form an expedition fleet. From Ganchao to hire sailors and sailors, hanging the Vietnamese flag, he also began his exploration journey.
Subsequently, Western countries, North Korea, and even Ryukyu joined the ranks of exploration and expansion.
At this time, although Western European countries demarcated their spheres of influence when they were in Madrid, they did not control their respective designated areas.
The Gan Dynasty did not recognize the so-called Madrid Treaty, so when the Gan Dynasty and the various vassal states landed in Africa, they immediately made Western European countries anxious.
The two major forces of the East and West have accelerated their pace of dividing the world.
Time flies June, and the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and nothing major happens.
On that day, Gao Huan was waiting in the pavilion, and Yang Yan came to report, "Your Majesty, the government has arrived!"
Gao Huan heard the words, "There is wind here, it's cooler, let him come over!"
Yang Yan bowed and soon brought Du Yinxi over.
"I pay homage to Your Majesty!" Du Yinxi said.
Gao Huan smiled and said, "You are asking for a meeting today, but you have something to report!"
"I have two things to report to Your Majesty!" said Du Yinxi.
Gao Huan pointed to the stone bench, signaled him to sit down, then turned his head and ordered: "Get a piece of shaved ice for Du Jingzheng!"
In recent years, the focus of Ganchao has shifted to domestic construction and development. Gao Huan has fewer matters, so he spent some time on eating, drinking and having fun.
Of course, he did not enjoy it all, but to improve the living standards of the people, to develop the tertiary industry, and to increase the tax revenue of the court.
Just talking about this shaved ice, after Gao Huan transformed it, it immediately became popular in Nanjing.
In addition, Gao Huan has improved many dishes recently, and has personally taken care of them to build several restaurants, which have become holy places in Nanjing.
Gao Huan waited for Du Yinxi to sit down, and then asked, "Your dear, what's the matter?"
Du Yinxie took the shaved ice, took a look, but did not eat it, but said: "Report to Your Majesty, the Tokugawa family sent an envoy to come and knelt down and begged to call the vassal state, hoping that the big fight could mediate the war in Japan!"
Gao Huan heard the words, put down the shaved ice and asked, "What's the war in Japan?"
Du Yinxie said: "After Ruan Dacheng brought back the arms, the Fusang army and the Tokugawa army fought in Kyoto, and each side invested nearly 200,000 people. As a result, the Fusang army won a great victory. Fusang general Wu Sangui defeated Tokugawa Izunobu and captured Kyoto and Osaka."
Gao Huan pondered for a while and asked, "What do you think about Japan?"
Du Yinxi hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, I can't say anything about this..."
Gao Huan put the shaved ice he picked up heavily on the table, "What's the point of saying?"
Seeing this, Du Yinxie hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Japan has a large population and is suspended overseas. Since the mid-Ming Dynasty, it has gradually become a threat to our Central Plains. I think that if we prevent problems before they happen, the court will never allow Fusang to unify Japan and completely defeat the Tokugawa family. Since the Tokugawa family is called a vassal, I think Japan can be divided into two, so they will restrain each other and will not pose another threat to the court."
Gao Huan nodded slightly when he heard the words, and also agreed with this suggestion. Although Gao Jian is his brother, this relationship is not worth mentioning in the face of national interests.
"I think this suggestion can be adopted by my dear friend." Gao Huan said in a deep voice: "Let the Lifan Court do the mediation matter!"
Du Yinxi was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Gao Huan actually adopted this suggestion directly. He calmed down and continued: "Your Majesty, another thing is about aiding the new merchant company!"
Gao Huan couldn't help asking, "Is there any news from Yinzhou?"
Du Yinxi shook his head, "There is no news coming back to Yinzhou. It was the China Merchants Shipping Company that they sent many batches of merchant ships to Yinzhou, but no news came back. Moreover, the first batch should have returned now, but no sailboat has been returned so far. Therefore, China Merchants Shipping Company suspected that the route to Yinzhou had been cut off by the Spanish."
Gao Huan frowned when he heard the words, "Have no ships come back yet?"
Du Yinxi nodded slightly, "No ships are back! Your Majesty, if the Spanish fleet is ambushing on the route and attacking our fleet, the Merchants and Shipping Company ships will go and go in batches but not back, it is not a solution!"
If the route is cut off and the ship sent by Ganchao is intercepted by the Spaniards, the more Ganchao sent, the stronger the Spaniards will be.
Gao Huan stood up and paced in the pavilion, "Let the Merchants and Shipping Company stop sending ships to Yinzhou first, and wait for me to discuss with the Council and notify them after I think of a solution!"
