Although when the Ming Dynasty publicizes it to the outside world, they say that the judicial results of the Ming Dynasty are solemn and solemn and cannot be changed!
However, this is only said to outsiders.
In the final analysis, the Ming Dynasty was just a feudal monarchy.
The current Ming Dynasty is at most a feudal monarchy that encourages the development of industry and commerce and has the germination of capitalism.
The authority of the emperor is greater than anything else. I am the country and I am not just talking about it.
It is true that judicial results are solemn and solemn, but we must also know who makes the law.
Isn't it a joke to say to those who make the law that judicial results cannot be changed?
If the emperor wants to change the judicial outcome, no one dares to say no.
Didn’t you see that the emperor is angry now?
…
In Nanjing, the Wang family’s machine factory!
Relevant staff from the Ming Dynasty Royal Chamber of Commerce came up with a shareholding agreement after inspecting the Wang family's machine factory.
"We are very satisfied with everything about Wangjia Machinery Factory. This is a shareholding agreement reached by the Royal Chamber of Commerce. Wang Yuanwai can consider it."
While talking, the staff of the Chamber of Commerce handed an agreement to Mr. Wang in front of him.
Wang Yuanwai took the agreement and started reading it.
Looking at the relevant contents of the agreement, Wang Yuanwai's eyes lit up, full of excitement.
Generally speaking, the shareholding agreement given by the Royal Chamber of Commerce is not harsh!
What the Chamber of Commerce wants is 40% of the equity of the machine factory, and what they have to pay is to solve the problems of building land, factory construction, recruitment of technical backbones, and patent applications for the Wang family's machine factory.
And more importantly, ensure that the car can be driven on the road instead of becoming an expensive ornament!
It's just 40% of the shares. What the Royal Chamber of Commerce wants is really not much.
Although the current car has been manufactured.
But especially the Wang family's production technology is not up to par, and the design manuscript is crude, the car still needs a lot of improvements before it can be put on the market on a large scale.
Without the technology and talents provided by the Royal Chamber of Commerce, the Wang family alone would definitely not be able to handle it.
And more importantly, the Royal Chamber of Commerce's investment can help the Wang family's machine factory to deal with all possible evil spirits and monsters that may arise.
Without the participation of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, the Wang family themselves would not be able to secure this major automobile project.
The consequences are unknown!
Thinking about these messy things, Wang Yuanwai chose to sign the agreement without any hesitation.
Wang Yuanwai knew that with this sign, his Wang family was connected to the royal family.
Then he spoke.
"The agreement has been signed. Sir, please take your time!"
The staff of the Chamber of Commerce nodded and said.
"no need to worry!"
"The Royal Chamber of Commerce will properly resolve the next matter..."
The two sides looked at each other, and then laughed together.
…
The time has entered July, and it has been a year since the Ming Dynasty's eastbound fleet left the Ming Dynasty.
Two months ago, after almost a whole year of sailing, the fleet arrived at its destination, San Francisco!
The name San Francisco comes from the name given by Zhu Hongyu, but no one knows why this place is called San Francisco.
But no one dares to ask!
What the emperor said was what he said, so the name of San Francisco was decided.
Then, after the Ming army arrived and settled in San Francisco, they immediately began to build ports, docks, and settlements.
Two months later, the port settlement, supporting urban defense facilities, and residential facilities were almost completed.
Du Wenhai, the commander of the eastbound fleet, ordered a prospector accompanying the fleet to leave the station and prepare to go deep into the hinterland of this vast continent to search for the legendary gold mine.
Accompanying the prospectors was a soldier of the Ming Army!
Each of these soldiers wore breastplates, carried muskets on their backs, and their sharp bayonets shone with cold light. They looked extremely elite.
Du Wenhai stood on a high observation platform, looking at the endless mountains in the distance and the endless plains.
At this time, he could finally understand why the emperor sent an eastbound fleet to explore the waterway to the New World.
Even if there is no gold here, it is still worth it just because of the fertile plain land as far as the eye can see.
The Chinese people's thirst for land in this era is something that many people cannot understand.
"Sir, the prospecting team has already set off."
The adjutant came to Du Wenhai and said.
Du Wenhai nodded.
"very good!"
"I hope they can bring us the news we want!"
After saying that, Du Wenhai got off the platform.
And around their camp, there are reclaimed and neatly planned farmlands everywhere.
No matter where they go, the Chinese like to cultivate land and plant some crops.
This place was thousands of miles away from the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, and the imperial court was unable to provide food and fodder for the expansion of the fleet.
If you want to establish a foothold in this new world by expanding your fleet, farming your own land and raising livestock is a very necessary thing.
Du Wenhai knew this, so he attached great importance to the farming work in the camp.
…
The prospecting team advanced all the way inland along the river. After walking all morning, everyone was a little tired, so the team stopped to camp and rest.
Some people went to fetch water from the river, while others cut down trees to collect firewood and prepared to make fires for cooking.
At this moment, the people who went to the river to fetch water couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
"Oh my god...oh my god!"
"There is gold in the water, there is gold in the water!"
"So... so much gold!"
"Find the gold mine!"
"..."
The other members of the prospecting team were also attracted by the screams over there.
A prospector strode towards the river.
He pushed through the crowd, came to the front, and waded directly into the river.
Looking at the faintly visible specks of golden sand under the clear river water and in the river bed, the prospector's eyes widened instantly.
Gold sands, lots of gold sands!
He picked up the Luoyang shovel he had on hand and thrust the shovel into the place with the most gold sand in the river bed.
After he lifted up the Luoyang shovel and looked at the amount of gold sand in the riverbed silt and gravel that he shoveled, the expression on the prospector's face could no longer be controlled.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Gold, so much gold!"
"Hahaha, we finally found gold!"
"..."
Amidst bursts of cheers, countless people raised their arms and fists with great excitement.
Everyone had a casual lunch, and then prepared to return and report the good news of the discovery of the gold mine.
The group of people quickly set off, heading towards the camp at a faster speed than when they came.
But at this moment, a team member who was walking at the front and responsible for exploring the path jogged all the way to the front of the large army and spoke.
"Captain, something happened. Our people encountered a group of indigenous people in front, and the two sides were confronting each other!"
The captain of the prospecting team was carrying a bag of gold sand on his back. Hearing this, he said with a bad look on his face.
"what is going on."
"Did the two sides have a conflict?"
Although the Ming Dynasty was not afraid of the indigenous people, they were unfamiliar with the place in this completely unfamiliar new continent, and they did not want to offend the local forces at will.
"There is no fighting yet, but the two sides are confronting each other."
"Squad Leader Yang, who is leading the team, wants to talk to the other party, but it's a pity that we didn't bring an interpreter with us this time."
The team member opened his mouth to report.
When the captain heard this, his face didn't look very good, but he still spoke.
"Lead the way, I'll go take a look!"
After saying this, the captain led the people to the place where the two sides were confronting each other.
In a dense forest, surrounded by lush vegetation, there are silhouettes of people looming among the shrubs and grass.
On the other side, Ming soldiers wearing breastplates protected the members of the prospecting team behind them, raising their guns to confront them.
A man stood up on the opposite side, chattering something.
Even speaking and gesturing, the body movements are very rich.
Someone from Daming's side also stood up and talked and gestured.
It can be seen with the naked eye that both parties want to communicate with each other.
It's just a pity that no matter how strong the desire to communicate is, it's useless if you can't understand what the other person is saying.
At this time, the large force of the prospecting team also arrived at the scene.
As the number of the prospecting team increased, the two sides continued to confront each other for a while. When the Indians saw the number of people in the prospecting team, they disappeared deep into the dense forest one after another.
It can be seen that they do not want to conflict with the Ming army!
Seeing this scene, the prospecting team also breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to return to the camp.
After the prospecting team returned to the camp, the captain carried a piece of gold sand on his back and went to report to Du Wenhai.
"Lord Qi, we found a gold mine, but on the way back we encountered..."
The captain of the prospecting team reported the matter to Du Wenhai.
After Du Wenhai heard this, he pondered for a while and said.
“Well done on the gold mine!”
"Everyone in the prospecting team will be credited with a great achievement!"
"As for the native Indians, don't worry about it for now. Our camp is right here."
“Let’s wait for the other party to come to us to talk!”
The Indians in the New World are actually not particularly warlike. Under normal circumstances, they are also very kind and like to communicate with the outside world.
You know, these Indians can take the initiative to provide help even when facing a group of yellow-haired and green-eyed barbarians.
Without their help, the ungrateful bastards on the Mayflower would not have been able to establish themselves in the New World.
What's more, those in the Ming Dynasty are Han Chinese who have the same black hair and look like them?
The two sides just lack communication now.
After there is communication, there is a high probability that the two parties can get along peacefully.
…
There are two high mountains on both sides of the plain!
The mountains are lush with trees.
Two high mountains turned the plain into a basin, and in the middle of the basin, there was a river flowing.
Surrounding the river is a large area of dark thatched houses.
Throughout the tribal camp, eagle totems can be seen everywhere.
This tribe with the eagle as its totem is called the Eagle Tribe.
They have lived in the basin for generations and make a living by simple planting and hunting.
There is very little external communication!
If we say that there are still Aztec, Inca and other Indian forces in South and Central America.
North America is basically a piece of loose sand!
The Indians of North America were divided into tribes or tribal alliances and were scattered throughout the New World.
On this day, sacrifices are being held in the Eagle Tribe!
A strongly mounted bison was carried to the altar and slaughtered by the high priest himself.
The blood was released and caught in a copper basin.
The high priest smeared his whole body with fresh cow blood, and then while dancing to the great god, he patted his chest vigorously to show his strength.
From time to time, strange screams came out of his mouth, as if he was communicating with the existence in the underworld.
Under the altar, everyone in the entire tribe was kneeling and kowtowing to the altar.
The leader of the Eagle Tribe has several bright feathers on his head, showing his special status.
However, he was also kneeling on the ground!
After a while, the sacrifice ended.
The high priest was exhausted during the dance and was helped off the altar.
Then he came to the clan leader and spoke.
"Chief Anru, I received a revelation from the gods. The gods said that guests from afar have come to our land."
"Guests are here to make friends with us!"
"The gods want us to live in harmony with our guests!"
Hearing this, Chief Anlu nodded and said.
"I see!"
"Please tell the high priest to the gods, and I will warn the people!"
While talking, the two looked at each other and understood the deep meaning in each other's eyes.
Today's sacrifice was, to put it bluntly, a scene performed by the patriarch Anru and the high priest.
It has been almost two months since the Ming Dynasty's eastbound fleet arrived in San Francisco!
Within these two months, a port settlement was built.
The territory of the Eagle Tribe is not far from the port, so it is impossible to not notice it.
Now that they are aware of it, how to deal with it has become the biggest problem facing the Eagle Tribe.
After thinking about it, Anru, as the patriarch, prepared to join forces with the high priest to stage such a scene.
That’s what happened today!
To put it bluntly, Anru was going to use the name of the gods to ask his tribe to live in peace with those mysterious visitors and not to offend anyone.
The reason is simple, because Unruh is sure that the warriors in his tribe will not be the opponents of those mysterious visitors.
After the Ming army arrived in San Francisco, they also carried out large-scale construction in order to build a camp.
During this period, explosives were often used for mining and quarrying.
Anru once watched the Ming army use explosives to open up mountains.
I have seen Ming soldiers pulling field artillery to hunt bison, brown bears and other large animals.
Anru knew that the Ming army had weapons that were extremely powerful and terrifying!
This is why he doesn't want his people to conflict with the Ming army!
Otherwise, Anru would not mind his people showing off their bravery and fighting skills.
The high priest nodded.
"This is what I should do!"
"..."
Just then, the hunting team came back.
Brown Bear, the hunting captain and the first warrior of the Eagle Tribe, came to the clan leader Anru and reported to the clan leader what happened when he and others encountered the Ming army in the woods.
"You didn't have any conflict with each other, did you?"
After listening to the brown bear's narrative, Anru asked.
The brown bear nodded and said.
"We were anxious to bring the prey back, so we just confronted each other for a while and then returned."
An Lu nodded and said.
"That's good!"
Anru now suddenly realized that with the passage of time, contact between his tribe and the Ming people was now an imminent matter.
Now, the two sides have their first official meeting.
Now that the other party is aware of their existence, communication is unavoidable.
Anru turned around and ordered.
"I ordered you to prepare some prey as gifts, and be prepared to have contact with those mysterious visitors..."
These Indians also understand that it is not strange to treat others with courtesy.
