Chapter 169 Spring
Of course, Zhu Youjian didn't intend to use alcohol to express himself.
Anyone who drinks alcohol knows that as long as the person is not drunk, the person's consciousness will not be affected too much. At most, it will only make the person more impulsive.
The reason why I have to act so calmly.
Just prepare an excuse to leave at any time.
But this left Kalama and others confused.
What is Wuerte going to do?
There is also this banquet. There is nothing wrong with the dishes. Once you taste it, you can tell that it is the work of the master of the large canteen in Black Flag City that is exclusively for public officials and the bannermen can eat for a fee.
But the seats and benches are quite rough.
Obviously we can still squeeze out some good tables and chairs made of good wood.
The entire hall is extremely simple. All the gorgeous decorations and furniture that were previously placed in Ulte's hall are now gone. The only thing that can be seen is a lot of animal skins and a few animal heads hanging in the room.
But Kalama and others who shouldn't ask didn't ask.
Under the biting ice and snow, a large army will inevitably suffer losses.
If you are so poor, you probably won't be able to get a few taels of silver out of your hands.
Not to mention the cold weather, the city is full of savages, and the residences are crude. What did the Ming Dynasty official sleep on in the past? It was a silk quilt! Is it fair to cover it with animal skins to keep warm here?
We left without asking for any benefits, and we did not deduct the rewards from the court. We were taking care of the savages.
Joy is joy.
If the territory occupied by the Mongolian tribes in the north is vast, the people can be killed endlessly, and there are soldiers and armor.
"Guangshi! Send 500 additional troops to Alchuka Fort and set out tomorrow. At the same time, send an order to Alchuka Fort to let them place the main hunting spot at the front flag of Guo'erluosi."
And when Zhu Youjian was entrenched in Black Flag City and waiting for spring.
Jin Yiwei reached cooperation with the North Korean Navy and also established an information channel to the Ming Dynasty. It also reached the front line in Shandong and could directly obtain first-hand battle conditions of the Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition from Lin Qingye.
The servants who had been with him for many years were secretly amazed.
In short, first obtain the name, rewards, and cooperation channels for Zhengheiqi.
Wang Chengen feels that his spring has come.
Without him, the sugar factory's profits would be too high.
Even if Li Chuang is not destroyed, Jiannu will have to guard against him.
No matter how submissive you appear, the sound of sharpening knives within the Ming Dynasty will never stop.
If you are poor, small, and weak, as long as you have two of these three things, then Ming's attitude towards you can be described as kind.
After all, they couldn't quite understand what Wuerte and those Koreans and Han people were saying.
Congratulations, you will gain the favor of the Ming Dynasty. Not only can you join the kind family of the Ming Dynasty, become a member of the tributary country, receive rewards from the Ming Dynasty, and enjoy many benefits, but the Ming Dynasty will also interfere with other tributary countries.
And maybe you will be lucky enough to become a member of the "Nation without Conquest".
As soon as they left, Zhu Youjian naturally asked the group of maids to come out and re-decorate the furniture. They also laid out bearskin rugs, incense burners, and Tiger Skin Chairs from the Mountain King.
As the audience becomes wider, the income will naturally be particularly terrifying.
Just keep eating and drinking and that's it.
The reason is also very simple.
"Practice ink."
Even if Wang Chengen only takes 30%, it will be more than enough to maintain the arms manor and treasure shipyard.
Thinking of this, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but sigh secretly.
If he wasn't worried about being backstabbed by Ming in the future, there would be no need for him to play this trick.
After the siege of Yue Lebu, the Jiannu surrendered a large area of land.
But now, it is obviously a good time to make progress, Zhengheiqi has to be bound by the cold winter and cannot move easily.
But in their eyes, Black Flag City is not a place for humans.
"yes."
And Zhu Youjian's fingers also began to wander on the map drawn by him.
Now coupled with poverty.
Upon seeing this, the North Korean envoy was delighted to have an extra supporter when he fought against the Qing Dynasty in the future.
So that Zhu Youjian can get the information about Jiannu faster when the situation arises.
This also made some Ming court officials who were involved in the sugar industry particularly hostile to Wang Chengen.
Even the cold weather in winter did not dampen his spirit at all. He walked in the arms manor with a vigorous pace, his back straight, and at first glance, he did not have the incomplete Yin energy that a eunuch should have.
The simplicity and scale of Black Flag City are enough to show that the ethnic group of Zheng Heiqi is not large.
So Zhu Youjian's finger finally stopped in the Shenyang area, but then he sighed again.
"As you command!"
All that's left is to wait for spring when the ice and snow melt.
Even the words he spoke were full of energy.
The maid waiting nearby did not dare to look at the map, but after hearing this, she obediently started studying the ink.
With such a stronghold, the cavalry could spy on the movements of the slaves who had retreated to Shenyang.
Three maps were hung in a row, with the hand-drawn map in the middle. Zhu Youjian was twirling his beard.
However, the cavalrymen who are galloping on horseback can still move around, but the heavy snow will greatly slow down the cavalrymen's movement speed.
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youjian was very aware of the attitude of officials in the Ming Dynasty towards foreign forces.
In the end, after a simple banquet, the Ming envoy got the answer that Black Flag Uerte had great intention to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
The paper unfolded with a bang, and a huge hand-drawn map unfolded. Next to it was the map of Ming Dynasty and Liaodong, and a topographic map without any labels.
Fortunately, winter is not a good time for large-scale migration of Jiannu.
But at least.
Thinking about it, Zhu Youjian moved his fingertips and then stopped at Alchuka Fort.
A sense of superiority.
As for why he made the banquet and his office hall and living room shabby.
The large amount of white sugar output squeezed out the original sugar industry of the Ming Dynasty, causing the price of white sugar to drop. In the past, desserts that could only be found in the hands of rich and powerful households can now be tasted by some small farmers.
The most important thing is the map.
The previous reliance on bitter cold and heavy snow in winter made the Azigh army's logistics tight and it lost its determination to fight for a long time.
Immediately in the eyes of the Han envoys and the North Korean envoys, Zhengheiqi became an extremely easy target to control and appease.
The next day, the two groups of envoys left in a hurry.
During the Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition, Jiannu had to guard against it.
Whether this attitude is good or bad depends on just three words.
Zhu Youjian naturally had to let people take Alchuka Fort under his control, so as to ensure that Zhengheiqi could take over the secure general territory after the snow melted, and it could also be regarded as a place for surveillance.
But finally having a reliable source of internal funds, Emperor Longwu naturally tried his best to protect Wang Chengen.
After tasting the sweetness of white sugar, he naturally began to think of exporting, so apart from the Northern Expedition, Longwu focused the rest of his energy on the expansion of sugar factories and sugar cane for sugar production.
With the support of Emperor Longwu, it was much easier for Wang Chengen to do things, and he was naturally proud of himself.
Because of this, Chao Zhongzhong Lin was even more repulsive towards him, and even called those who had interacted with Wang Chengen and done some business and transactions as Wang Chengen's followers.
