Sweet potatoes and cigarettes must be Liu Mingqi¡¯s most important task in the next three to five years.
As long as they are spread out, Dakang's strength can be restored.
When the time comes, it will be easier to take revenge on the evil neighbors around you.
The overall business atmosphere of Dakang is similar to that of the Song Dynasty, but in terms of character and temper, it is much better than that of the Song Dynasty.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China more than 80 years ago, Dakang has never been violently beaten by these alien races.
"Now I have been slapped so hard one after another. Even if the emperor doesn't feel pain, all the ministers and generals will feel pain, not to mention the hatred of the common people.
Now in Jiangnan and Fujian, countless people are wearing sackcloth and mourning, and they are crying.
"It's all the fault of Japanese pirates."
Because of the vigorous development of maritime trade, the people of Dakang have not yet put down all weapons and only focus on farming life.
So according to the news brought by Chi Saner, in fact, recently, the folks in Jiangnan, gentry, officials and businessmen have all written to the court in droves, asking the court to avenge them and kill all the Japanese pirates.
Their letter also made it very clear.
"The taxation of Jiangnan has always been the highest in the world and has contributed a lot to the world. Now it is ravaged by Japanese pirates. Within a hundred miles of our Jiangnan people, all the people of Jiangnan wear sackcloth and wear filial piety. This is the shame of Jiangnan and the shame of Dakang."
"If the court doesn't care about this, and I, Jiangnan, work hard to contribute taxes and burn myself to warm others, what's the point? How can the court have the heart to treat us?"
"If the people of Jiangnan lose their hearts, the great prosperity of the country will be unstable, and the world will be shaken. I ask the emperor to think of the people of Jiangnan, and send troops to exterminate the Japanese pirates as soon as possible, so as to eliminate the hatred of tens of millions of people in Jiangnan!"
""
How else to describe the openness of Dakang¡¯s people?
"What you said to me, Da Ming, must be a big deal.
Putting it in my Qing Dynasty, I can copy the door directly.
But in Dakang, they dare to write like this.
And in fact, within Jiangnan, this wave of sadness, anger and panic is even stronger.
"Jiangnan Daily" has been reporting on tragedies in various places for many days in a row. The various tragic facts make people's hearts tighten when they read them.
On the one hand, they hate the Japanese pirates for being so cruel. They clearly inherited the teachings of China for thousands of years and were able to eliminate barbarism and enter civilization.
As a result, they used this method to "repay" the Central Plains, which is really intolerable.
On the other hand, most of the nobles and rich people in Jiangnan are afraid.
This time when the Japanese pirates attacked, except for some rich and noble people along the coast of Jiangsu who were unable to react at first, the rich and noble people in Jiangnan actually did not suffer much damage.
They ran away immediately.
¡°Either go to a big city like Huai¡¯an, where the Imperial Envoy Miao Yan is in charge, or go to Jinling, Suzhou, Yangzhou, Hangzhou, these important towns that are also heavily guarded.
Because of various reasons, the Japanese pirates have not even captured an eternal city this time, so they are relatively safe.
But what they heard before and what they saw after returning to their hometown was that it was a mess.
It¡¯s scary.
Naturally, these people¡¯s relatives and friends in the big city also knew this information, so everyone was afraid that the Japanese would invade the city next time, so they hurriedly petitioned the court.
In fact, the people who are really suffering can only silently lick their wounds.
They had no other choice but to hate the Japanese pirates helplessly and pray to God to protect them from further disasters.
¡°In a sense, all their sorrow and pain were written and disclosed by Jiangnan Daily.
These facts were directly cited by nobles, gentry, and businessmen and told to the court.
In fact, there is no need for them to mention it. The court and the emperor have already known these things from various channels.
But due to various pressures and difficulties, the emperor and the court have not expressed their stance.
¡°Now that petitions and letters from weeping people are coming one after another, the emperor and the court can no longer sit idly by.
¡°After all, as they say, if the people of Jiangnan lose their support and Jiangnan is in chaos, will the world be better off?
So during the time when Liu Mingqi was on his way back, Emperor Jinghe issued a special edict.
"The Emperor of Heaven has issued an edict: Today the Japanese pirates have invaded and insulted our Dakang people, causing countless indescribable disasters.But the types of vegetables were much fewer than in modern times, and there were no greenhouses. Even the emperor had to eat a lot of pickles in winter.
The young man was thinking in his mind, it is said that in the humid provinces in the southwest, it is precisely because of peppers that they can remove moisture, so should I be given a monument for this?
Liu Mingqi still doesn't know that in many places in Jiangnan, Fujian and Liaoning, many people have placed the sign of "His Royal Highness De Wang" next to the Bodhisattva statue, praying and blessing him every day, and bless the good man His Highness De Wang in his life. Safety.
But he knew another piece of good news.
That is Brunei's Zasuli's fleet full of iron trees and other trees. It has arrived at Quanzhou Port seven days ago and will arrive in Lianyungang in early October at the latest.
Then it went all the way from Lianyungang to the Grand Canal and arrived in Miaoyan Huai'an City in mid-October.
¡°After the canal shipyard begins to complete the preliminary cutting, drying, etc. work, they can be used to produce new ships in the next year at the latest.
I hope that in three years¡¯ time, when it is really possible for Dakang to recover his blood debt from the Japanese pirates, the four-masted ship he designed will also come in handy!
¡° If I could solve various technical problems in casting iron cannons during this period of time, I would be even more domineering.
The four-masted ship itself was built for a large number of cannons.
Under the bombardment of hundreds of cannons, the four Japanese islands had no choice but to be smashed to pieces!
