The entourage is called Xu Gui, and compared with Zhong Sanri, Xu Gui has more reason to hate his father, because he has never been regarded by his father as his own son, and the trouble is that he doesn't know whether he is his father's biological son or not.

Xu Gui's father is Xu Fu, who used to be the general secretary of the Coral State Assembly, and now lives a leisurely life guarding a large farm. In the Coral State Rebellion that year, Xu Fu, who was just a farmer, suffered, his wife was raped by miners, and then gave birth to Xu Gui. Although everyone says that Xu Gui still looks like Xu Fu, but Xu Fu, who has a stalk in his heart, looks less and less like it, in this era, everyone has already known that it is unreliable to recognize relatives by blood, and this question has been carried by this family until Xu Gui grows up.

Xu Fu is an honest person, and he still does his duty to raise Xu Gui, provide him with school, and give him a future, but Xu Gui has no strengths other than sincerity, and even reluctantly finishes elementary school, in this regard, it seems that Xu Fu is really inherited.

Zhong Shangwei was kind enough to bring him to Nanjing and give his third son as a companion, not only to eliminate the internal troubles of the Xu family, but also to borrow Xu Gui to take care of his son.

Xu Gui did not hate his father, not only grateful for the nurturing grace of his parents, but also grateful for the care of Zhong Shangwei. In this era, there is no master-servant contract, but he still regards himself as a descendant of the Zhong family, calling Zhong Shangli the master and Zhong Sanri the young master. The young master's grudge against the master, he was very unaccustomed to it, and said urgently: "Young master, we have to go back quickly!" ”

Zhong Sanri stabilized his mind and sneered: "Go back!?" It will take four months for the news from the coral state to reach Lisbon, and by the time I go back, the old man's grave grass will be three feet high! What am I going to do when I go back? Maybe this family is doing things after the funeral, and scolding me for not being filial. ”

Xu Gui paused and said: "My brother said that the old man fell ill at the beginning of the year, and went back to Chengtianfu to recuperate, and he was a little better, but his condition took the turn for the worse in the middle of the year. When my brother left, the old man said that I would hold on until the young master went back, even if it was ......."

"Alright, alright! Anyway, I'm going to go back to do something big, so let's take a look at the old man. He wasn't dead by then, and he probably regretted it to death! ”

Zhong Sanri's face was strained, but his feet didn't stop: "What about Xu Shan?" Why did you come at night? I'll have to ask how my mother is. ”

Xu Shan is Xu Fu's second son, for Xu Fu. This is the first biological son of the truth. But in terms of personality, the smart and high-spirited Xu Shan is obviously not like his Lao Tzu, not only finished middle school, but was also admitted to the Hong Kong Maritime Academy, and is a top-notch figure in the second generation of Coral State. After graduating, he worked in the merchant fleet of the Western Company, and is now the acting captain of the merchant ship "".

Xu Gui chased after him, and said as he ran: "Isn't the dock still repaired?" There are only a few berths that can park big ships, the number is parked outside, the goods have not been unloaded, and Xu Shan is going ashore on a small boat. ”

Five years ago, Lisbon was hit by a massive earthquake that killed 30,000 or 40,000 people and destroyed most of the city. Anglo-Chinese kept this European bridgehead and borrowed heavily to help Portugal rebuild Lisbon. At the same time, it took the opportunity to expand the dock, which has not yet been completed. Of course, it is also a normal business practice to obtain the right to operate a part of the terminal in Lisbon. In order to repay the loan, Portugal also had to cede part of the right to operate tariffs, which also made the trade agreement between Seris and Britain have loopholes to exploit.

With Portugal as a bridgehead, the trade ties between the East and the West are becoming more and more stable, and with the support of this background, Zhong Sanri is full of confidence in his plan. His goal was to use the Jewish statehood to make the Fuxing Bank a VIP of Jewish bankers, and the Jews not only no longer had a hostile relationship with the Fuxing Bank, but also regarded the Fuxing Bank as one of their own and could participate in the financial enterprise of the whole of Europe.

Make this piece of pie really persuasive. Whether it is the family relationship or the official channels of Fuxing Bank, it is not enough, at least to make an outline of this matter. The key to Chung's persuasion of Velázquez also lies in the political delicacy of the matter. When Velasquez heard Zhong Sanri talk about this before, he ridiculed Zhong Sanri for yawning, saying that this matter must at least be discussed by Foreign Minister Seris to be slightly reliable. At that time, the tone was quite sad. …,

This grievance comes from the political sensitivity of the matter, and it is unlikely that Ceris will promote this matter from official channels, after all, the Jewish issue is an old issue that has entangled Europeans for thousands of years, and Ceris is too proactive in this matter, even if it is beneficial to all European countries, but all countries will doubt Ceris's intentions, and the conspiracy theory of Ceris in Europe in later generations is based on such a psychology.

Although Velázquez did not say it explicitly, and there is no conclusive historical evidence to corroborate it, it is believed that the Jewish upper echelons approached the official Ceris and made such a temptation. The result is also obvious, Seris has no intention of interfering so deeply, at least not taking the initiative to interfere.

If there is a force from the private sector, such as Fuxing Bank, to complete the exploration of the underlying plan first, and find out the commercial interests clearly, then the official will come out to operate, and there will be a certain foundation. And at that time, I am afraid that it will not only be of interest to Seris, but also to the new hegemon of Britain, who is eager to change the old pattern of Europe.

In fact, it was Russia that created the opportunity to drive out the Jews in the future, and Britain was the first to enter the game, and Seris followed up in a covert manner. A hundred years later, Europeans shouted about Seris's conspiracy theory, and Britain was weak in heart, and secondly, he was unwilling to admit that he had jumped into the pit dug by Seris, so he had to remain silent.

The whole thing looks like a conspiracy, but if you break it down into two paragraphs, it is actually a normal business transaction that has elevated to a political operation, and it is composed of two conspiracies.

At this time, Zhong Sanri is playing the role of a trader who promotes the second Yangmou with the first Yangmou, so he must go back to his homeland.

On October 20, 1760, the forty-second year of the Holy Dao, Zhong completed the preliminary affairs on the third day, boarded the number, and embarked on a journey back from thousands of miles.

This return trip can be far more than 10,000 miles, and in the 30th year of the Holy Dao, Yinghua promulgated the "Huangying Weights and Measures Quasi-New System", replacing the old system of units with the metric system, and the mileage has also changed from miles to kilometers. And each kilometer is equal to 1,000 meters, and each meter is equal to 1 in 40 million of the circumference of the meridian passing through Tokyo. In this way, Zhong Sai's return voyage from Lisbon to Nanjing on the third day was 28,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to circumnavigating most of the world [1].

A super-fast three-masted schooner with a displacement of 2,000 metric tons, the Anglo-Chinese shipbuilding was the culmination of the sailing age, similar to the ultimate clipper ship of another dimension, but not for transporting opium, but for transporting high-end silk, porcelain, machinery and ordnance from Anglo-Chinese to Europe, and from Africa to the slaves. The ship was registered in a Western company, but it was employed by the British East India Company, which was able to avoid the trade agreement between Britain and the Anglo-Chinese. It can also circumvent the Yinghua slave prohibition law.

From Lisbon to the south via Las Palmas and Cape Verde to Monrowero, Accra, Malabo in West Africa and Luanda in Central Africa, the ship's cabins were gradually filled with black slaves. By the time of the Good Hope Fort. There were already nearly 600 black slaves on board.

Anglo-Chinese companies have been involved in the slave trade for a long time, and initially did not connect with the European slave trade, but only imported sporadic slaves from the direction of East African monks (Mogadishu). Later, due to the rising anti-slavery sentiment in the country, the relationship between the Nanyang natives and the Chinese was intertwined, and it was difficult to enslave at will, the demand for "Kunlun slaves" soared, and the evil capital pushed Western companies to jump into the tide of the global slave trade.

The plantations and farms in Nanyang and Nanzhou were in great demand for black slaves. Malacca also became a transit point for black slaves. The Anglo-Chinese merchant ships bound for Europe, because Europe did not provide enough value for the return trade goods, were loaded into black slaves, transported to Malacca, sold to black slave middlemen, and then resold by middlemen.

Because this route did not conflict with the European slave trade, and even because of the addition of Anglo-Chinese capital, the "resource exploitation" of African slaves continued to rise. All countries are happy to join hands with Yinghua on this matter. It is against this background that the Dutch dared to risk European condemnation and allow the Anglo-Chinese to set up a coal station at Fort Good Hope. …,

Past the Fort of Good Hope. Another stop at Maputo, although the Anglo-Chinese seafaring medical level was first-class, and the treatment of black slaves was slightly more merciful than that of Europeans, but there were still many deaths of illness along the way, and Maputo became the last place to replenish stocks. After that, we sailed north to Mogadishu.

It was already December when he arrived in Mogadishu, and Zhong Sanri had only walked a little more than halfway through the journey back to his hometown. During his few days in Mogadishu, Zhong paid a visit to the Red Sea Protector Semirin on the third day. This army general warmly entertained every Anglo-Chinese businessman who arrived in Hong Kong, which was not only a demonstration of the friendship of landlords, but also a way for self-businessmen to understand the latest situation in Europe. Just a few words are enough to taste for a long time.

Zhong Sanri can understand Yue Shenglin's longing for his family, his predecessor and nephew Yue Jingzhong is fighting on the European continent, the older generation of Liangyue has passed away, and now the new generation of Liangyue is rising, shouldering the heavy responsibility of Yinghua Buwu in the world.

"Jewish statehood. Well, I wish this could be done soon. I am very familiar with many Hanlin scholars, so I recommend a few to you, and you can blow the wind with them when you return to China. ”

Yue Shenglin was very interested in Zhong Sanri's plan, and he enthusiastically extended a helping hand, and Zhong Sanri could understand. Anglo-Chinese had no interest in the vast land of East Africa, and the colonial company that contracted Mogadishu was losing money, and no one was willing to take over it, so the country had to take over. It is not only to pave the way for the future Suez Canal, but also to maintain a forward base for the east-west maritime trade route, and at the same time to provide a foothold for the Western fleet.

Yue Shenglin, the protector of the Red Sea, is only responsible for guarding Mogadishu, a city of only four or five thousand people, including two thousand red clothes under his command, which is not as good as a small town on the mainland, which is really boring. If the establishment of the Jewish state can be carried out, it means that Egypt will make a big move, and if Egypt moves, Ottoman Turkey will have to move, which is to open up another battlefield, and the Red Sea protectorate will also be useful.

When saying goodbye, Yue Shenglin made a request: "When you come again, bring some Japanese or Korean fresh girls, Kunlun girls really can't get into the mouth, Tianzhu girls taste too strong, and many of my subordinates are infected with Longyang's disease." ”

The Anglo-Chinese garrison in Mogadishu, including the Red Sea Protectorate, rotates every three years. For ordinary people, the past three years are almost a mismatch, and the Anglo-Chinese soldiers are used to it. Yinghua now has nearly 300,000 red clothes, more than half of which are outside the mainland.

Most of the red-coated officers and men spent two-thirds of their term of service outside their homeland, and only had a third of the time to be transferred back to their homeland, which of course included Luzon, Funan, and Bagan, which had become provinces directly under the central government.

Not to mention the navy, especially the Western Fleet, once the graduates of the two naval academies in Hong Kong and Wusong are selected by the Western Fleet, it means that they will leave their homeland for at least five years, and those cries at the graduation ceremony every year are caused by this.

Although the environment in the Western Regions and Liaodong is harsh, they are important places to garrison after all, and the needs in that area are easy to be satisfied. There are many women, either Mongols or Turks, and it will not test the aesthetics too much.

And overseas is in trouble, with Mogadishu as the most, in the British and Chinese army, the Red Sea Protectorate is nicknamed "Longyang Mansion". The officers and soldiers who have stayed here will have an additional title: "Longyang Army". Yue Shenglin is not a womanizer, this is asking for women for his troops.

Zhong Sanri is not a trader, so this matter is not to be discussed, and Xu Shan, the captain, has a lot of business autonomy. He hesitated and said: "The price of Japanese and Korean fresh girls is relatively high......"

Since there is the black slave trade, there is the "Japanese and Korean domestic trade", but it is different from the slave trade, this is a legitimate "labor trade", and the Japanese and Korean fresh women are considered hired workers, with a certain personal security and a contract period. The country was less sensitive to the slave trade. The reason is that in traditional thinking, there is no consensus on whether Kunlun Nu belongs to "people", and the righteousness of equality has not yet been extended. …,

Yue Shenglin said: "In addition to the original price, I will make up a Kunlun slave for every time I come, don't be surprised, we have subdued dozens of chiefs around us, they pay tribute to hundreds of sturdy Kunlun slaves every year, and ......"

He whispered to Xu Shan: "There is a castration method taught by an old eunuch in Beijing. These Kunlun slaves are guaranteed to be docile and safe. ”

Xu Shan said yes in a continuous voice, while Zhong Sanri watched the two of them pat their shoulders and smile, and said in his heart that he was struck by lightning every day. It will be too late to regret what you have done. He was a radical who believed that all people were equal, regardless of race, and that he himself would never be involved in human trafficking. Of course, the fact that he lent money to slave traders was particularly positive was understood to be legitimate business dealings, and slave traders were his good customers.

Another shipment was replenished in Mogadishu, the hold was full, and the ship sailed for Mumbai. Mumbai was also a transit point for the slave trade. However, it was mainly used to buy and sell black slaves for special purposes. Moreover, Bombay was the location of the British East India Company, and the number had to go there to register for the return voyage.

In late December, the ship arrived in Mumbai, and as soon as he got off the ship, he heard cheers in the port, and Zhong Sanri and the Xu brothers thought it had something to do with them. Just when I was inexplicable, I heard someone on the dock shouting: "Long live my emperor!" General Jia is mighty! ”

What happened?

pulled over a Yinghua businessman with a flushed face and jumping and jumping, and when he asked, Zhong Sanri and the Xu family brothers were also stunned.

"Agra wins! The Demon Governor won Tianzhu for His Majesty! ”

The merchant shouted, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes.

In the forty-second year of the Holy Dao, on November 12, 1760, Jia Hao, the capital of Yinghua Tianzhu, led 20,000 red-clothed and 100,000 native soldiers from Indian states to defeat the Mughal Empire army controlled by the Persians at Agra. The main force of the 50,000 Persian army that marched south and the 200,000 troops raised by the Mughal Empire were wiped out. The Persian prime minister and generals, as well as the Mughal puppet emperor Shah Alam II, were arrested.

The Anglo-Chinese had been encroaching on Tianzhu for more than 20 years, and the first step was to get Bengal and aid the Marat alliance against the Mughal puppet empire supported by the Persians and Afghans in the north. Thirty years after the Holy Path, Marat was defeated repeatedly, and Yinghua personally went into battle to help with the soldiers of the princely states of Bengal. However, because of the rise of the Afghans, the Marat alliance has always been infighting, and considering the cost, the Anglo-Chinese only buried themselves in Bangladesh and maintained the situation with princely soldiers.

By the late thirties, the Anglo-Chinese sphere of influence in Central Asia was growing, the Persians were moving into Afghanistan and Tianzhu, and the Mughal puppet empire was crumbling. At this time, Jia Hao, who had been in Tianzhu for more than ten years, saw the opportunity and began to start from both the political and military sides, planning to embezzle the entire Tianzhu.

In the forties, the haze of the First World War gradually rose, Russia joined hands with the Ottoman Empire, Persia was suppressed, and suddenly broke out and invaded Tianzhu in a big way. The Marat Union was difficult to resist and was close to collapse.

At this time, Jia Hao stood up on behalf of Yinghua and said that Yinghua was willing to drive away foreign enemies, but on the condition that Yinghua obtain the suzerainty of the Tianzhu princely states. At this point, the princely states represented by the Marat Alliance had to bow their heads, anyway, the suzerainty of Tianzhu has always been held by foreign races, what is the difference between the Anglo-Chinese and the Mongols, Persians and Turks?

Compared with the cruel and greedy other alien races, the Chinese are more tolerant and gentle, and the Tianzhu princely states do not have much resistance. Before that, when the Anglo-Chinese had ruled Bengal for more than twenty years, Kolkata and Chittagong were more prosperous than Mumbai, and the people lived and worked in peace (the Shudras and untouchables were not among the "people"), so what reason was there to refuse the deal?

The battle that decided the fate of Tianzhu unfolded in Agra, two hundred kilometers south of Delhi, and in just one day, the Mongols and Persians collapsed, and the Britons who watched the battle patted their thighs and scolded Walpole, all of whom felt that the Mughal Empire was just a paper elephant. …,

Well, now the whole of India is in the hands of Anglo-Chinese, endless resources, huge market, with India, Britain wants to turn against Seris, the price will be extremely high.

"At the time of the Battle of Ceylon, the great wheel of history was still stuck in the quagmire of the struggle between Britain and Seris, but now, the great ship has broken free and rolled in the direction of Seris, and we Britain have been left far behind. Now the only thing we can count on is North America, and I hope that the old men of parliament will face up to the hidden dangers of the North American colonies, and not be carried away by the failure of losing India and go to the other extreme. ”

The commander of the British garrison in Bombay, Klevu-Robert, wrote this passage in his diary of a spectator, from which he later became known as the "crow's beak".

When the Mughal Emperor presented his crown in Agra in front of the princely kings and announced his abdication to the Anglo-Chinese Emperor, all the Anglo-Chinese were excited.

Jia Hao held the crown and bowed to the east, and the words he shouted will remain in the annals of history forever: "Dedicate this crown to my emperor!" Since then, I Yinghua has been a double body of Huaxia Tianzhu, and my emperor will also have the position of double emperor! ”

Although the meaning of the crown of Tianzhu is completely different from that of Yinghua, and the land and people he rules are completely different, at least in the face of the princely states, this "emperor" is more like an alliance leader, and he has to continue to operate in order to obtain real profits, but this does not prevent the Yinghua from being proud of it.

After understanding this shocking news, Zhong Sanri and the Xu family brothers were also full of blood, clenched their fists, and shouted to the sky, and the shouts merged into the cheering boom of Mumbai port, and then gathered with the shouts of the city, and the whole Mumbai was drowned in the boiling heat.

"Long live my emperor!"

"Long live Yinghua!"

In the shouting, Zhong Sanri silently read one more sentence: "Old man, what exciting news, I feel that I can fly now!" With this great joy and joy, how can you hold on until I go back.
