Chapter 751 Jointly Establishing the Governor's Mansion
Several old people from the Shi family who were walking also heard what Shi Jinqing just said. The first one walked straight towards Handu. After the ceremony, he asked with tears in his eyes: "Dare I ask my uncle, is the Central Plains now a country with Chinese clothes?"
Is the world under heaven?"
Han Du straightened his expression, raised his hands toward the north, and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, commanded the power of the gods, and raised your troops in civilian clothes. In fifteen years, you destroyed the Yuan Dynasty, expelled the Tartars, and restored China. Your Majesty founded the Ming Dynasty, and the year was named Hongwu. This year is the seventeenth year of Hongwu."
Years have passed. The land of the Central Plains is naturally dominated by Chinese clothes."
"Okay, okay!" The old man looked excited. It was as if Lao Zhu could win the world, and he was even happier than Lao Zhu.
Next, Han Du told the old man about his plans to establish the Ming Dynasty Old Port Propaganda Department in Old Port and let Shi Jinqing serve as the first Propaganda Department.
The old man naturally asked the same worries as Shi Jinqing.
But this time, without Han Du having to explain to him, Shi Jinqing interrupted and whispered the plan to the old man.
The old man was not as excited as Shi Jinqing was at that time. Instead, he frowned, looked at Han Du attentively and asked, "Why did you give the Shi family such great benefits?"
There is no hatred without reason in this world, and there is no love without reason. Since Han Du has promoted the Shi family to be the new master of the old port, it is such a great benefit. If Han Du said that he has no other purpose, I am afraid no one will understand it.
letter.
It was natural for the old man to ask clearly about such an important matter.
Han Du smiled and said: "Those who are not from my race must have different minds! I don't know if this reason is enough in the eyes of the old man?" Han Du said this sentence has two meanings. One is that in fact,
It is true that the Shi family is the most likely to gain his trust, and secondly, it also shows that Handu is willing to re-accept them, the Chinese survivors.
But even so, the old man still shook his head and said: "Not enough."
Those who are not of my race must have different minds. This is the truth, but in a Palembang such as Old Port with a superior geographical location, race alone means nothing.
The position of the Lord of the Old Port, let alone the race, I am afraid that even brothers would not hesitate to turn swords against each other in order to fight for the Old Port.
Han Du smiled and continued: "The Ming Dynasty will set up the Old Port Xuanwei Department here, and will also set up the Old Port Governor's Office. The governor will be sent by the Ming Dynasty, and troops will be stationed to maintain the tranquility of this place and protect the interests of the Ming Dynasty and you.
.Is this enough?"
"That's enough." The old man relaxed and replied with a smile.
The old man can naturally see what impact the Ming Dynasty will have after he comes to garrison here. It can be said that by that time, the old port will be completely decided by the Ming Dynasty.
On the surface, it seems that Shi Jinqing's official position as a consolation envoy is of no use, and the interests of the Shi family have been greatly damaged. After all, they have gone from being loyal to others to being inferior to others.
But in the eyes of the old man, this is not the case at all. Since Jing Haibo now has the strength to destroy forces stronger than the Shi family, he can naturally destroy them. Even if they become the masters of the old port and develop rapidly
, he will not be Jing Haibo’s opponent in a short period of time.
In this case, we cannot rule out the possibility that Han Du pushed the Shi family out to stabilize the old port in order to temporarily maintain the stability of the old port. After all, the old port is a port and is the fourth port.
It is a place where merchants from all over come to do business. If there is no stability and weapons are everywhere all the time, then who would dare to come here to do business?
The greatest wealth of the Old Port is the merchants who come here. If there are no merchants here, the Old Port will be just a deserted land and worthless.
In the eyes of the old man, although Han Du has the absolute power to overthrow Old Port, destruction is definitely not Han Du's purpose, but gaining profits is. And Han Du, a new face who has just arrived, may not be able to do anything even if he says it nicely.
No businessman dared to believe what he said. Let alone doing business, it was already good to dare to come here.
No one dares to come to Old Port to do business. Even if Handu takes over the entire Old Port, what's the point?
And since Han Du said that the Ming Dynasty would not only set up the Xuanwei Department in the old port, but also set up a governor's palace, and send people from the Ming Dynasty to serve as governors and garrison, this allowed the old man to dispel his doubts. Only in this way did the Ming Dynasty want to run the old port well.
Meaning, instead of killing the goose that lays the goose to get the eggs, just like pirates, just grab a vote and run away.
Don't blame the old man for having this idea, but after all, Ming Dynasty is too far away from Old Port, and no one knows what Ming Dynasty thinks of Old Port.
The dinner was extremely lively, and the Shi family had a little say in Old Port, otherwise Shi Jinqing would not have participated in the discussion of war or surrender.
The whale oil candles thicker than an arm were arranged densely, and the bright firelight illuminated the place as if it were daytime. Various local delicacies were brought to the table in a smooth flow.
Han Du sat at the front seat, surrounded by people from the Shi family respectfully.
Seeing that Han Du took a few sips of wine and then put it down and stopped drinking, Shi Jinqing couldn't help but wonder, "Uncle, is the wine not good?"
"I'm afraid the wine in the wild land is much worse than that in the prosperous land of the Ming Dynasty. It's natural that my uncle is not used to drinking it." The Shi family elder laughed, relieving the embarrassment.
This brewing technology was brought by the Shi family from the Central Plains, and this is also the basis for their foothold in the old port. Just imagine, people who have been floating on the sea for a month or two will already have birds in their mouths. At this time,
If there is a bowl of wine, it will not cost real money or silver.
"No," Han Du shook his head and said, "Although this wine is different from Daming's, it's just the difference in ingredients. In fact, it has a different flavor when you drink it. It's just that there is a big show to watch tonight. After watching the big show,
Wouldn't it be more enjoyable to drink it?"
As soon as Han Du finished speaking, everyone laughed meaningfully. Seeing the other forces' unclear expressions, they even laughed coldly in their hearts.
Other powerful people didn't know what was going on with Han Du and others. They didn't understand the language, so naturally they couldn't talk to Han Du. They just watched Han Du and others laugh, and they also picked up their drinks and laughed in agreement.
Information asymmetry is really a dimensionality reduction blow, and you don't even know how you were killed.
At this moment, fireworks shot up into the sky from several different directions. This was a signal from the Ming Dynasty Navy that they had succeeded.
After Han Du saw it, he immediately put down his drink, smiled and said to Shi Jinqing: "Shi Xuanzhi, you can take action now."
When Shi Jinqing saw the fireworks, he was surprised. They didn't know what they were, but after hearing Han Du's words, they understood that this was the signal sent by the Ming Navy. Several Shi family members were walking towards
The old man also heard what Shi Jinqing just said. The leader walked straight towards Han Du. After the ceremony, he asked with tears in his eyes: "Dare I ask my uncle, is the Central Plains now a world dominated by Chinese clothes?"
Han Du straightened his expression, raised his hands toward the north, and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, commanded the power of the gods, and raised your troops in civilian clothes.
