"Kunlun slave~"
Hearing Behar¡¯s words, Du Mingen couldn¡¯t help but say.
Hearing Du Mingen¡¯s words, Bihar also paused slightly, and then looked at Master Huiming.
"Master Hou is saying how can there be dark people in this world."
Master Huiming smiled and translated quickly.
"I don't know about this, but merchants in the Arab region like to sell these black people. They are strong and seldom get sick, so they are the best slaves."
Behar smiled and shook his head.
"The best slave?"
Hearing Behar¡¯s words, Du Mingen silently remembered this.
Nowadays, with the large-scale rise of factories and workshops in the Beijing-Tianjin area, the labor force required is very large. Many people will sell slaves from the grasslands, Korea, and the Japanese country to the Beijing-Tianjin area for sale, and the profits are considerable.
¡°If the traders in the Ming Dynasty knew this information, there would definitely be a large number of slave traders selling slaves to the world outside the Ming Dynasty.
"However, Africa is still too far away. Whether it's Nanyang or Tianzhu, the population is also very large. Even if you are trading slaves, you should start from these places first.
"To the west of the Ottoman Empire is the vast Mediterranean Sea. To the north of the Mediterranean Sea, there is a group of people who believe in Christ. They have been fighting against the Ottoman Empire for a long time, and they have been fighting against each other for countless years for their faith."
"In history, these people who believed in Christianity also established a very powerful empire, and even destroyed Persia at one time, and even tried to invade our Tianzhu."
Behar smiled and continued to speak slowly.
"Believe in Christ?"
Du Mingen frowned slightly, feeling that the people in these places seemed to be greatly influenced by sects. Buddhism, Indian sect in Tianzhu, and Lan sect in Arab area, and now they are coming out again What kind of Christianity?
This is completely different from the Eastern world dominated by the Ming Dynasty.
In the East, including the Ming Dynasty, Korea, Japan, and Siam, Annan, and Luzon in the Southeast Asia region, everyone does not believe in this aspect and does not care about it.
"This is a very noteworthy issue. If Ming Dynasty has long-term contacts with these areas in the future, it will definitely be greatly affected, but these miscellaneous things cannot be passed back."
Du Mingen thought quickly in his mind, and instinctively he had to be vigilant about these things.
"If they can compete with the Ottoman Empire, then the countries in these places must also be very powerful?"
Du Mingen thought for a while and asked Bihar.
"They are indeed very powerful. I heard that the year before last, a fleet called Portugal arrived in Calicut, our western Tianzhu."
Behar smiled and nodded slightly, and then said another shocking thing.
"Portugal?"
After listening to Bihar¡¯s words, Master Huiming didn¡¯t know how to translate the word Portugal, so he could only transliterate it.
"Are you sure they belong to a country north of the Mediterranean?"
Du Mingen frowned immediately. It seemed that it was not just the Ming people who were developing sea routes. These Europeans had also begun to develop sea routes.
¡°It can definitely be a country north of the Mediterranean, because their clothes are very different from those of the Ottoman Empire, and they all wear crosses.¡±
Bihar said with great certainty.
"This incident happened 2 years ago. It caused a huge sensation in Calicut at that time. We in the Kingdom of Andhra also have contacts with Calicut."
"Cross?"
Hearing this, Du Mingen couldn't help but nodded slightly.
Before coming out, Liu Jin had already told him some things about Europe. One of the most prominent features of the religion they believed in was the cross.
"They arrived in Tianzhu in the eleventh year of Hongzhi's reign. Their fleet must have come around Africa."
At the same time, Du Mingen also had a world map in his mind. The most convenient route to reach Tianzhu from Europe is to go around Africa and reach Tianzhu.
"It's a pity. It would be great if we could meet them here in Tianzhu."
Then Du Mingen felt a little regretful in his heart. The Portuguese arrived in Tianzhu from west to east, and he arrived in India from east to west.Busy.
Especially when I think that I can often communicate with Daming in the future, I am even more excited.
??Here in the Nanyang region, these countries are very welcoming to the arrival of Ming merchant ships, and they hope that Ming merchant ships will often come here in the future.
The reputation of Ming Dynasty is really good. Everyone likes to interact with Ming Dynasty.
Of course, this is also related to the strategy adopted by Du Mingen. Wherever he goes, he always gives gifts first. A set of glass products can bribe people in these places.
"Isn't it just to get a piece of land to build a communication base? What a big deal."
What's more, the Ming Dynasty is a great country, powerful and rich, and will not care about its own territory at all. Everyone believes this, so they are very happy.
So much so that Du Mingen brought cannons and strong soldiers along the way, but he had no use for them. He originally thought that if they disagreed, he would use force to make them obedient.
Now I didn¡¯t expect that these Portuguese people also mastered advanced navigation technology and continued to establish colonial strongholds on the routes. This is interesting.
"Of course~"
"Although they only have four ships, their artillery is very powerful" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
