Chapter 129 Everything is for gold coins
Is the Great Lakes area?
When Wang Shan proposed the Great Lakes area, Zhao Hongyu fell silent.
Of course he knew how rich the mineral resources the Great Lakes region possessed were.
Moreover, the Great Lakes area is not too far from the Manhattan City he established, and it can be fully developed for genetic immigration.
This area has great advantages.
At the same time, in addition to rich coal and iron resources, the Great Lakes region also has a rich wildlife resource, after all, it is not the 21st century now.
In the 21st century, due to excessive hunting by humans and the encroachment of animals' living space, wild animals have become very few.
Although the United States has also begun animal protection measures, it is still far from enough compared to 1620.
In the forests of the Great Lakes, there are animals such as American elk, bear, wolf and fox. In the lake, there are also American minks, water monkeys and beavers, and even groups of American bisons appear, which can provide rich meat for those living there.
At the same time, there are also such rich aquatic products and fish in the Great Lakes, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to obtain protein.
There is a treasure land given by heaven!
If a city is established in that area, you can see Canada in the north and control North America in the south. It is really a place that can be attacked and defended.
At the same time, the Great Lakes also have natural river channels, which connect the Hudson River and can directly reach Manhattan Island and enter the Atlantic Ocean.
Therefore, the Great Lakes area is a treasure land that cannot be given up.
In the future history, the United States established the heavy industrial city of Detroit in the Great Lakes region.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu thought about it and said to Wang Shan: "We can consider the Great Lakes area, but it is obviously unrealistic to start mining under our existing conditions. We do not have such technology and manpower, after all, we cannot use machinery to mine now."
Wang Shan nodded: "Of course, it is not realistic to mine minerals in machinery, and we are not enough manpower. But we can build a city first and control that area before we talk about it, that is, it means occupying territory."
Zhao Hongyu thought about it and felt that this was not impossible.
Compared to Manhattan, the Great Lakes area is firstly a little far away from the sea, which can avoid attacks from the sea.
If there is a real war, whether it is the attack of the French from the North Quebec or the British from the South Virginia area, he has a lot of room for maneuver.
The terrain there is much better than the one in Manhattan City now.
"Well, when I go back, I will send someone to see the situation, but I think that even if I need construction, it will be next year. Now it is already autumn, and winter is coming. It is difficult to build in winter."
Wang Shan knew that Zhao Hongyu was telling the truth. The land was frozen in winter. It was purely a burden to carry out construction at this time.
Moreover, it is very cold in North America, so it is not as comfortable as staying at home.
The two were chatting on the deck, while the Genetic Sailors were busy with their own affairs.
...Divideline...
Williams, you devil!
God will punish you!
In the plaza of the port, hundreds of men were forced there by soldiers from Jacquesari.
The bearded captain who had seen Zhao Hongyu was in the crowd, looking angry.
"Fight with them!"
The bearded captain raised the scimitar in his hand and shouted and rushed out.
Ao!
The sailors around him followed him.
The residents around the port had been driven away long ago, and Williams didn't want too many people to know about this.
How could these people have a conflict with Williams?
It turned out that after Zhao Hongyu left, the three captains who had snatched the ship touched their heads and discussed the possible cooperation that might arise in the future.
However, they ignored another person, Mr. Williams, the Governor of Virginia.
Williams knew how much profit would bring in trade with Zhao Hongyu, and how much wealth would be brought in porcelain.
agent?
In Williams's opinion, it's enough for him to have an agent.
If it's too much, what else can he make?
When Zhao Hongyu was there, he was hard to say anything and did not do anything.
But when he left, Williams was not so easy to talk to.
Everything is for money. If it weren't for the exquisite ceramics brought by Zhao Hongyu's men, Williams would have killed the three genetic people as soon as possible.
It can be seen that Williams is not a good person to talk to.
Under the inducement of wealth, Williams famous man forced the three gangs to snatch the captain and sailors of the ship away by Zhao Hongyu, and forced them to the port.
He wants to kill all these people!
In this way, European agents can be done by him alone.
At this point, the previous scene appeared.
Although the sailors are very brave, they are too few after all. So how could they be opponents of the soldiers in Jaquesari? This is very unrealistic.
When the last sailor fell to the ground, there was no need to guess the ending.
Why do you have to share the money with such a profitable transaction? Williams doesn't want to share the wealth with everyone.
Just find a few agents, and he used the silence behind the scenes to make money.
Everything is for gold coins, nothing wrong with that.
Zhao Hongyu had never expected what happened in Jaques Sali City.
He had no idea that he had a good intention for a moment and wanted to compensate those unlucky guys for their actions, but he ended up sending those people to hell.
However, with Zhao Hongyu's current mentality, even if he knows about this in the future, it won't be so good.
Williams killed those people for profit but it was just a means of not understanding, but how much of any wealth accumulation is clean.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu cares too much if he doesn't go back.
Because when Zhao Hongyu became stronger, in order to completely become the control of the American continent, he would also invade Virginia for the sake of land.
Williams from the Governor's House received a report from his subordinates. After knowing that all the unlucky guys had been dealt with, he happily hummed a small song in the room.
He came to the porcelain and looked at the porcelain in front of him with greed eyes.
This is simply a gift from God, which can bring wealth and reputation and status. Williams could even imagine that when these porcelains are shipped back to the British mainland, the royal family will definitely be very authentic.
And he will also receive corresponding rewards.
Title or something else?
Williams himself could not have imagined that there would be benefits in any case.
At the same time, I brought the porcelain trade in a region in private and could make a lot of money.
Haha, for the first time he felt that the American continent was a good place, not a backward world full of natives.
But soon, Williams woke up from his excitement.
He slowly walked to his desk and sat down, frowning together.
These wealth can make people jealous and even make people crazy.
Originally, the American continent was a place where birds could not shit, and no one was willing to come to those who were good at home. Basically, those who came were people who couldn’t make money in the local area, those who had no property or those who were homeless.
Although there is a silver mine here, in fact, no one can insert the silver mine at all. Because the supervisor of the silver mine is a person sent by the royal family to be the official management.
But if there is a country where exquisite ceramic products can be produced and unlimited supply of food appears, then this place where birds do not shit will become a treasure pot.
Those guys in China will definitely rack their brains to come to this place.
In this way, wouldn’t my position as the governor of Virginia be unable to sit steadily?
After Williams considered this issue, he couldn't help but worry about himself.
If he can continue to be the position of governor, then he can make money.
But if he is not in this position, everything will be empty talk.
What kind of means should you use to maintain your position?
Williams thought very seriously.
---------------
"Your Majesty, we have brought him such great benefits to Williams, and it also brings him danger. Can he see this?"
Just as Williams was worried about his future and wealth, Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan were also talking about his affairs.
Haha, Zhao Hongyu smiled: "As long as he is not a fool, he will definitely see this problem clearly, but we can also use this matter to see if he is a person who can support him. First, let's see how he reacts to our recruitment in Jacquesari. If he turns a blind eye, we will support him. If not..."
hey-hey!
Zhao Hongyu said this very clearly, which means it depends on Williams' attitude.
You give me benefits, I give you benefits and even support you.
If you don't give me any benefits, then you'll be done.
For Williams, the benefits are ceramics and grain.
For Zhao Hongyu, the benefits are population and technicians.
But unlike Williams, Zhao Hongyu has full control over ceramics and grain, and you have to trade with him to obtain it.
But the people in Jaques Sali were unable to control them all.
"I understand what you mean. In fact, if he thinks of this problem, it is actually very easy to solve." Wang Shan nodded and said in response. "Just contact us and explain the benefits of cooperation with us, then we may not be able to support him. Anyway, who to cooperate with is not a cooperation, and it may not be easy to deal with if someone is replaced."
Yes, if someone else came here, he would see such great benefits and wealth. If he was blinded by money and another war came, Zhao Hongyu would not want it to happen.
