Chapter 945:Post-War

“Did the Spanish and the Dutch surrender?”Heathrow saw the white flag of the Spanish fleet on board the ships of the East India Company, and although he had long thought that the Great Ming Marines could defeat the Spaniards, when this came, it made him feel incredible, and he did not expect victory to come so quickly.

“This is no longer the time of the Armada, and the strength of the fleet of Asia is far from being comparable to that of the European fleet.”His colleagues also gave birth to the bunny and fox, so comforting themselves, but in his heart has been mugging, even if the European fleet comes, will they be able to win?

"It seems that we had to give the information of India to the emperor."Heathrow lamented that he had thought it would be years from now, but now it seemed that he would have to be sent away immediately, after defeating the Spaniards and the Dutch, Manila and Malacca would fall under the control of Daming, which also opened up their sea route from Sanya to India, and that Da Ming's entry into India had almost become a foregone conclusion.

“We have made high profits from the previous trade, and as long as we can keep Surat and Madras, it does not seem to be a bad thing for us to enter India.”His colleagues replied that India was not yet the crown jewel of the Queen, and they did not yet realize how much India could bring them, and that Britain was now focusing on the war in Europe and the colonies in North America, unable to draw much attention to the situation in Asia.

"May the majesty give a generous return, and yes, His Majesty the Emperor has given a list, and let us invite these European scientists to lecture in Da Ming, and to tell the truth, these rewards are really to make me jealous, why should I choose to be a merchant and not a scientist in the first place?"Heathrow took a letter from his bosom, “Iscartes, Ferma, Galileo, William Harvey... where did His Majesty know these names?”

Li Yu had to regret that Pascal was still young, and Newton and Leibniz were not yet born, which made him miss the greatest scientists of the 17th century.

“Maybe from Toby?”Hisirot's colleague shrugged, "We are merchants, and since the intermediary fees given by His Majesty the Emperor are so high, we only need to do as he says, why should we tangle the reason?"In order to invite these scientists to Da Ming, Li You gave generous conditions, as long as he found any scientist on the list, he would give the East India Company a heavy reward of two hundred gold, in addition, even if it is not on the list, as long as he can get the approval of His Majesty the Emperor, he can also give the East India Company a reward according to his ability.

This made the shareholders of the East India Company wish to sell scientists throughout Europe to the Ming, but the benefits of these people would be far more than gold.

"Well, I think we should part ways, and I go to Daming to offer Indian intelligence to His Majesty the Emperor, and you shall return to Europe to collect the scientists for His Majesty."Heathrow began the assignment, “and we need to know as early as possible what Daming will do with the defeated Spaniards and the Dutch, if only to drive them out of East Asia.”Now, in a sense, the Spaniards and the Dutch were competitors of the East India Company, and if they were to be driven out, the Asian road to Europe would fall into their hands.

On the Da Ming's warships, the court's Chinchai and the fleet's admiral are also discussing how to deal with these enemies, "if it is in the will of Admiral Ben, these red hairs have all been killed, these people have committed my great Ming genus for no reason, and then successively harassed Penghu, Liushu and other places, but also slaughtered my Ming people, it is a crime to forgive."

“Of course, the officials and soldiers who participated in the massacre of the people of Daming cannot be let go, but it is not good to kill everyone, after all, it is ominous to kill prisoners.”Qin said with a smile, before leaving Beijing, he had already obtained Li You's will, if the Spaniards and the Dutch completely resolved, then the Asian road to Europe will all fall into the hands of the British and the French, the goods produced by Ming will be less than two buyers, which is not a good thing for Daming.

And now the Spanish to buy the gold of Daming goods is mostly shipped from South America, not from the mainland of Asia, if they do not even earn this money, so in the people of Daming revenge, Manila and Malacca and other strategic interests to the Ming, and then fiercely extorting them, Daming will still keep the peace with the Spaniards and the Dutch, let them compete with the British, the French, so that Daming in the trade.

After defeating the Spanish fleet, the Da Ming Marines immediately moved to fight on the 6th, and the elite Daming soldiers quickly solved the governors who tried to rely on the castle to block their defenders, captured the Spanish governors, and after trial, all the Spanish criminals who had committed massacres in the calendar years were put to death, and then confiscated the Spanish and Dutch colonial gains for many years, took off strategic areas such as Manila and Malacca, and firmly took Daming's route to India in their own hands.

And at a time when the governors of Spain and the Netherlands were extremely depressed, Daming sent a trade agreement: "Your sins have been duly punished, and I believe that you now understand that the East Asian countries are my great-meared genus, and it is not that you can harass them."

“Yes, we understand, we paid the price, so what is this deal?”The Spanish governor seemed to see a glimmer of hope in the deal.

"Your Majesty the Emperor welcomes the merchants of all countries to come to me to buy goods, and if you are willing to continue to do business with Da Ming, then you can bring these goods, and I will sell them to you."Qin Chai pointed to the list and said that it was all about the goods that were urgently needed, such as rubber.

“No problem, just this price...” The price and demand of the goods satisfied them, but for profit they seemed to forget the danger of the new one, and began to bargain with them.

At the same time, Hesrow and his party have arrived in Daming territory and are ready to continue to go north to Beijing and meet Li You again.
