    Tianjin harbor.

    Liu Jin came here again, looking at the extremely busy scene in front of him, with a smile on his face.

    The Tianjin Port in front of you is very busy. The docks are filled with large ships. The dock workers are busy loading and unloading goods. Four-wheeled carriages are constantly transporting goods.

    The dragon flags of the Ming Dynasty are flying on the big ships, and then there are the flags of various trading houses. There are even many merchant ships from Korea and Japan. You can see many Koreans and Japanese people at the port.

    The signing of the Treaty of the Ming Dynasty vassal states is equivalent to the removal of restrictions on the exchanges between the Ming Dynasty and the Ming vassal states, and they can freely travel and do business and trade.

    The Ming Dynasty was their suzerain country, and it had an extremely huge market and massive commodities. There were also many Koreans and Japanese people who came to the Ming Dynasty to do business.

    Even in North Korea and Japan, there are people who come to Ming Dynasty to work.

    The income from working here in the Beijing-Tianjin area of ??the Ming Dynasty is very high, including food and accommodation. It is no problem to just earn 2 taels of silver a month. What's more important is that people are needed here, and the more the better.

    Factories, workshops, trading houses, transportation companies, etc. are all places that require a large number of workers. Small factories and workshops have hundreds of people, and large factories have tens of millions or tens of thousands of people.

    The Beijing-Tianjin area is like a huge melting pot, not only attracting people from the northern provinces to slowly gather here, but also attracting people from North Korea and Japan to come and work.

    For this reason, an industry was born. Some people went to North Korea and Japan to recruit people to work in the Ming Dynasty, thereby extracting benefits from both sides.

    Standing at the dock of Tianjin Port, Liu Jin saw a North Korean merchant ship. Many North Koreans disembarked from it, all of them young and strong. Each of them was carrying packages and looking at the prosperous Tianjin in front of him with curious eyes.

    There is no doubt that these people came to work in Daming.

    Liu Jin is still happy to see such a phenomenon.

    Before the large-scale use of machinery, manpower was an extremely important resource. Although the Ming Dynasty may have a huge population of hundreds of millions, the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, and it will expand globally next.

    This population is definitely not enough. It is also a good thing to be able to use the manpower of Korea and Japan.

    It is better to use Koreans and Japanese people than to use other people. At least they are of the same origin and the same species. Moreover, according to the Ming Dynasty vassal treaty, Korea and Japan are popularizing Ming Mandarin and Chinese characters for a long time.  , in fact, the difference between them is not big.

    If the manpower cannot be replenished, the future may be like the Europeans in history, selling black slaves on a large scale. When thinking of the black uncles who will only make trouble in future generations, Liu Jin feels that it is better to use Koreans and  The Japanese people are good.

    No matter how scarce the population is in the future, Kunlun slaves cannot be used. There are plenty of people around the world.

    Well, the key is to find a way to let the people of Ming Dynasty spread their branches and leaves.

    Shaking his head slightly, Liu Jin walked towards a dock.

    There are dozens of large ships moored at this pier. The flags of Tianjin Ocean Trading Company are hoisted on the large ships. At this time, preparations are being made for setting sail.

    These dozens of large ships are the ships sent by Liu Jin to open up routes to Australia.

    Australia is a good place. It has a vast land, sparsely populated areas, and extremely rich resources. It has extremely rich reserves of iron ore, gold, silver, copper, etc.

    The most important thing is that in Australia, there are no people at all. Not only are there very few indigenous people in Australia, but the most important thing is that their civilization is also very backward.

    Historically, the British occupied the entire Australia with just a few hundred people. It is conceivable how weak the fighting power of the Australian indigenous people was. Some TV programs in later generations even specially featured some Maori people to dance a war dance, and then they all  Licking makes me feel sick just thinking about it.

    ¡°If they were really good at fighting and extremely brave, they wouldn¡¯t have become aborigines, and those who were killed would need to be protected.

    Such a chosen land must be occupied.

    " Moreover, Australia can also lead to the South Golden Continent, opening up a new route to the Golden Continent. Its importance is even greater, and it needs to be captured even more.

    "Sir~"

    Seeing Liu Jin coming, Guo Ye, the leader of the fleet this time, quickly took him away and said respectfully.

    "Hmm~"

    Liu Jin looked at Guo Ye and nodded. Guo Ye is also an old man under his command. He has been with him for several years. From a poor boy at the beginning, he is now responsible for several things., that is silver.

    Du Mingen went to Golden Continent for the first time and brought back 30 million taels of gold and silver. Even the most ordinary crew member could get several thousand taels of silver.

    Cases of getting rich overnight have also inspired countless poor people to join the ocean.

    Many people are willing to go to sea with sailors and learn navigation experience and techniques even for no wages. Every time Tianjin Maritime College enrolls students, countless people squeeze their heads to get in.

    Because everyone knows that the income of crew members is very high. If you can become a captain, your income will be even higher.

    Although going to the Golden Continent is hard and tiring, a trip to the Golden Continent in about two years is enough to earn more money than you can spend in a lifetime. There are too many people who want to go to the Golden Continent.

    At Tianjin Port, the trading houses that knew that Tianjin¡¯s ocean trade was going to open routes to Australia and the South Golden Continent also sent fleets to follow them, all wanting to follow them to Australia and the Golden Continent to make a fortune.

    Gold and silver are the most powerful driving forces, everything else is fake.

    Soon, as the sailing bell rang, large ships began to leave the port one after another, forming a huge fleet and slowly moving away between the water and the sky.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
