Fortunately, there is no good news coming back from Manila. At least the Bishop, His Excellency Melcho and more than a thousand other Spanish survived, which gave the Spaniard a glimmer of hope.

Since nothing happened to the bishop, it also means that God protects the empire.

Supported by this emotion, Spain across the Philippines began to act, with more than 800 Spanish troops and 2,000 indigenous troops starting to counterattack against Ganzhou City under the cover of more than 200 large and small ships.

However, this unstoppable momentum suddenly became a little funny when he met the large fleet composed of Fubo Division in Ganzhou Bay.

After seizing the Spanish warships in Manila, the fleet of the Fubo Division has expanded to have 12 large battleships, 41 medium-sized warships and 78 small warships.

Although these warships cannot be used all due to manpower, they are enough to make up for the lack of mobility of the Fubo Division fleet.

With the cooperation of Watch Island, on May 27, the Fubo Division won a great victory in the naval battle in Ganzhou Bay.

More than 50 Spanish warships were captured or destroyed. If the Admiral of the Spanish fleet had not ordered a retreat as soon as possible, they would have been afraid that the Spanish rule in the Philippines would have ended.

After experiencing this battle, the Luzon General's Mansion has gained a firm foothold in Southeast Asia.

The city of Ganzhou was officially lifted due to this incident. With the restoration of freedom in the Netherlands, Portuguese merchants traded everywhere in Southeast Asia, and various news about the Luzon General's Mansion gradually spread throughout Southeast Asia.

Anthony van Dimen, the Dutch Governor of Batavia, originally wanted to take the opportunity to attack Ganzhou City, but after learning about the Spanish's defeat, he had to stop.

However, all this has nothing to do with Liu Xi's life.

As June approaches, he still has to return to the capital, so he is busy completing the political system construction of the Luzon General's Mansion, selecting and appointing temporary officials at all levels every day.

Compared with the governance system of Liujia Village, the Luzon General's Mansion has several major changes.

One is in terms of finance. Originally, the Liu family's Yuluo money ticket printed with his own avatar and the pattern of Liujia Village. Now that Luzon General's Mansion has been established, this naturally cannot be continued.

For this purpose, he directly found a painter from Balian City, and designed the front and back of the money bill as the front Luzon Islands pattern, and the reverse side of the Luzon General's Mansion.

Of course, because the relevant equipment from the Money Box Office has not been shipped, it will take some time to wait until the Luzon banknotes are officially designed and used.

Liu Ximing made more reforms to gold, silver and copper coins. With the establishment of the General Mansion of Luzon, the Liu family could also begin to officially mint their own currency.

In the past four years, under the guidance of Liu Ximing, the Liu Family Workshop has gradually promoted the use of primitive machine tools. In conjunction with the newly named Jiangyuan River next to Ganzhou City, Luzon has already met the conditions for using machine coins.

For this reason, Liu Xi

The Mint under the Ministry of Revenue has arranged tasks and requires the construction of the mint as soon as possible with the cooperation of the workshop.

The current world is still a currency model of gold and silver. Liu Ximing naturally knows that under the control of the laws of the market economy, they will eventually enter the gold standard era.

However, the amount of gold mining is far from meeting economic demand at present, so he can only implement it in accordance with the gold and silver replication system first.

The second big difference is the House of Commons. After nearly four years of high concentration system, many problems within Liujia Village have begun to show signs, such as officials' single-mindedness, arbitrary behavior, bureaucracy, etc.

Liu Ximing has always seen these problems. Although the Liu family has carried out several rectification movements since the establishment of the housing management, due to the lack of institutional guarantees, this rectification movement is just formalism after all.

Now that the Luzon General's Mansion is newly built, Liu Ximing has made up his mind to lay a solid foundation for the future founding of the country.

In order to prevent problems such as bureaucracy, in Liu Ximing's view, he naturally can only rely on the people to participate in politics.

To this end, during this period in Luzon, he began to concentrate on forming a pilot house.

In Liu Ximing's idea, the House of Commons should be a role similar to that of the U.S. Rabbit Humans, but its functions are broader than that of the National People's Congress.

In the future, not only all laws will be formulated by the House of Commons, but some of the country's major policies should also be discussed in the House of Commons.

At the same time, in order to avoid the raging of bureaucracy, the House of Commons must work with the Censorate to supervise the bureaucratic system, and have a media under its jurisdiction, striving to truly speak out for the people.

Liu Ximing naturally has to control the appointment and removal of officials, but this does not mean that officials only need to be responsible.

In the future, in the General Office of the Luzon and even within the Liu family's regime, officials in key positions such as the State Council must be in the hands of Liu Ximing, and the election will eventually be carried out by the House of Commons.

Therefore, when it comes to the selection of the House of Commons, Liu Ximing attaches more importance to its class and representation. He is well aware that the bureaucratic system is inconsistent with his ability, he directly stipulated the proportion of various groups in the House of Commons.

The proportion of officials and cadres at all levels cannot exceed 30% of all personnel. The rest must be selected from farms, factories, military and other places.

However, many of his in-depth ideas have not been known to officials at all levels in Luzon. In addition, given the uneven quality of the staff of the House of Commons, the House of Commons is only given the function of collecting public sentiments and opinions by Liu Ximing.

According to Liu Ximing's requirements, the House of Commons held a meeting every three months, and Da Nayan submitted government rectification opinions and suggestions to the State Council.

Regarding the opinions and suggestions put forward by the House of Commons, the General Affairs Department of the State Council must give a written reply to Liu Xi’s order to be investigated.

Only after these actions were done can the entire Luzon General's Mansion be fully constructed.

After the promise to return to the Ming Dynasty,

After selecting family managers to take over the work of the General Mansion of Luzon as soon as possible, and dispatching two other battalions of troops to garrison Luzon, Liu Ximing officially left Qianzhou City under the escort of the fleet.

Liu Ximing was very satisfied with this trip to Luzon.

Although the plan cannot keep up with the changes and many of the original plans failed to be implemented smoothly, the final result was unexpectedly good.

Just as attacking Luzon, the Liu family not only formally established the banner and inspired all the Fubo soldiers, but also obtained an excellent base.

From now on, some things that the Liu family did not dare to do could be started. In the past, in order to avoid excessive attention, the Liu family in Shaanxi, Henan and other places did not dare to recruit refugees in large quantities.

But now it is different with Luzon. Although it is thousands of miles away from the mainland and the transportation cost is very huge, the Liu family had to set up shops in various southern provinces, otherwise his family would not be able to find the next one if they had tens of millions of pieces of cloth a year, and these refugees could also be transported to Luzon in batches.

After consulting with many Dutch and Portuguese people in Tongganzhou City, Liu Ximing suddenly discovered that the cotton market in Southeast Asia was not big enough.

The cotton cloth shipped from China to Nanyang is mainly sold to Luzon Island, and there are Han vendors traveling from street to street to all parts of the island. The Spanish Manila trade will also buy some to ship to Mexico.

As for Siam, Manzhebayi, and Aceh, due to its close proximity to India, the cotton market is under great pressure.

However, the total number of native Han people in Luzon is only 600,000 to 700,000. Now that Ganzhou City is occupied by the Liu family, it is still a matter of whether the Spaniards will continue to trade.

Before the Zheng family could not defeat the Zheng family to develop trade between North Korea and Japan, the Liu family's cotton sales could only focus on the mainland, so building a commercial network throughout South China was imminent for the Liu family.

Under this situation, Liu Ximing immediately thought of the logistics network of later generations. Since it can transport goods, it can naturally transport personnel.

In addition to these, Liu Ximing's direct profit on Luzon Island was even greater.

From the Spanish alone, Liu Ximing had seized 7.8 million taels of gold and silver. After that, when Fubo was sweeping the entire island, he collected 1.5 million taels of gold from several tribes in the Northern Jinshan Mountains.

In order to improve the lives of the people of Luzon, Liu Ximing provided 4 million pieces of cotton to the General's Mansion.

In addition, through low-price dumping, more than 6 million pieces of cotton cloth were sold to merchants in the Netherlands, Portugal and other countries, and recovered 700,000 taels of silver.

As for the remaining 20 million pieces of cotton cloth, Liu Ximing did not intend to continue to bring it back to mainland sales, so he could only stay in Luzon as the fiscal revenue of the General's Mansion of Luzon.

All of this combined, the Liu family earned a total of 10 million taels of silver in cash during this trip to Luzon, which is not counted as money in Annan.
Chapter completed!
