Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 400 California Protectorate

Messaging in this era is measured in months, if not years.

Just when Europe is joining forces and is about to form a "new crusade".

The Ming Empire at this time.

Another bumper harvest has come.

At this time, it was the eighth year of Guangfu, the autumn of 1779 AD.

If someone counts the grain output of the Ming Dynasty in the Han area, they will find that the grain output of the Ming Dynasty has reached a new high.

The price of food has dropped to a considerable level.

Strangely though.

The phenomenon of tenant farmers being evicted from their tenants is not uncommon at all.

Those landlords who took back their fields and hired people to take care of them made more money than before-of course, if they were allowed to choose, they still missed the Qing Dynasty, after all, they were not only landlords at that time , or a gentry, a gentry with a great political status.

Where is it like now.

There is money, but he is a land rich man.

Political status is not as good as it was in the Qing Dynasty—of course, if someone in the family ranks first in the imperial examination, it will be different.

Grain from the Northeast and Southeast Asia poured in.

The price of grain was further reduced to a point where the local rich lords in the Han area sighed and stomped their feet.

But they are not small farmers, but agricultural capitalists with means of production and capital.

Food prices have come down.

In the southern provinces, many manors began to grow other cash crops.

Under the impact of capitalist agriculture.

More small farmers were forced off their land.

Or they entered factories in Shanghai and Guangdong to work, or they set foot on passenger ships thousands of miles away.

Don't know when it started.

Perhaps it started after the imperial court contracted the shipping to North America to major shipping companies.

The ferry ticket to Jinzhou Protectorate's Mansion has been reduced from 40 Ming Yuan to 15 Ming Yuan each.

Such a low price.

The number of immigrants going to the Golden State Protectorate once exceeded the number of immigrants going to the Northeast and Northwest.

in this fall.

Destined, there are still a large number of farmers, dragging their families and carrying their mouths, boarding the ship to the New World, and embarking on the journey to the legendary Golden State where everyone has meat to eat, everyone has land to plant, and the ground is full of gold. ——Either to say that getting a good name is very important.

Golden State.

It must be much better than Liaobei.

This place in northern Liaoning is bitter cold when you hear it.

Jinzhou is very rich when you hear it.

Therefore, those who go to northern Liaoning are basically collective farms organized by the imperial court.

And to the Golden State.

A considerable proportion of them are "owner farmers" who bought their own boat tickets to go there.

Sailing ships departing from Shanghai, Qingdao, Tianjin and other places usually have to resupply in Japan.

So in addition to the Chinese, many Japanese also went by boat.

But their destination is not Golden State.

It is the La Plana Plain at the southernmost tip of South America.

There, the new Yamato Castle belonging to the Kingdom of Japan has been established, and it has also attracted a large number of poor Japanese samurai.

This piece of land was a reward from Ming Dynasty to Japan for "voluntarily" abolishing the emperor and welcoming the sixth prince of Ming Dynasty Zhu Yixin as the king of Japan.

Today, in the new Japan surrounding the new Yamato Castle, there are already 10,000+ Japanese poor samurai, plus some farmers who immigrated from North Korea, the population has reached more than [-].

This number is enough to make them a South American bully.

The Spanish colonists there were in bad luck.

In order to defend their own territory, these Japanese short warriors fought crazyly.

The Spaniards could bully the Japanese at sea—but the Ming Empire dispatched a dispatch fleet to station in New Japan.

And on land.

The Spaniards just can't get enough of them.

A large number of Japanese samurai who once served in the Great Ming Japanese Armed Forces formed the backbone of the New Japanese Army.

Facing these Japanese who killed countless people in Nanyang.

The ferocity of the Spaniards bullying the natives of South America is not enough to watch.

A piece of land was torn from the Laplana Plain by these Japanese lunatics soon.

And after owning this piece of land.

Some Japanese samurai who served the Ming Dynasty also had a place to reward them.

For example, first in Nanyang, he helped Daming carry out the Nanyang population reduction plan, and then he followed Tokugawa Manhime to Kyoto to help the emperor to be ousted from power. Tian Shanyue, a Japanese samurai of the Soldier Force.

Now he is a vassal of New Japan who has obtained [-] acres of land in New Japan!

Of course.

If Tian Shanyue doesn't want to go to New Japan.

Staying in Daming, you can also become Ming officials and nobles as a Ming soldier—most of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Japanese Armed Forces can speak fluent Nanjing Mandarin and can also write Chinese characters.

And warriors like Tian Shanyue who worked hard all the way up from the bottom.

He even got a letter of retention written by Zhu Daohua, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

"Written by the Son of Heaven, Mr. Tian Shan, are you really going to South America?"

In the official office of Heilongjiang City in northern Liaoning Province.

Chen Zhongliang, a fourth-rank senior official of the Ming Dynasty who was the head of the Northeast Reclamation, looked at his old partner and said.

Chen Zhongliang was the main executor of the collective farm system in Northeast China.

It took three years to work in the Northeast.

According to his merits, the next one will definitely become a land seal!
Or the governor of a province, or the governor of a certain Protectorate.

In short.

Chen Zhongliang will definitely join the cabinet in the future!
So in the Northeast, many people have started to burn his stove.

But after a few years in the Northeast, Chen Zhongliang, a white-faced scholar in Guangzhou, now has the appearance of a rough guy in the Northeast.

Because being an official in the Northeast is not as peaceful as in the pass.

Although on the map.

From Dalian to the north to the Arctic Ocean, this large area is the territory of Ming Dynasty.

But in fact, the current government office of the Ming Dynasty has also arrived at Hailanpao City in the North Xing'an Mountains.

Most of the area to the north of Hailanpao City still belongs to the territory of the map, and the rule of the Ming Dynasty government cannot reach this.

even.

Conflicts, large and small, continue.

Conflicts between collective farm households and local indigenous tribes often occurred.

The Russians left here merged with the remnants of the Eight Banners and indigenous tribes and became brutal bandits in the dense forest.

So much so that the collective farm households in the North Xing'an Mountains area must now have guns and be ready to fight at all times.

Guns are the necessities of life in the North Xing'an Mountains. If someone doesn't have a gun, even Zhuangzi can't get out.

Chen Zhongliang has long been accustomed to this.

Wasn't it the same in Borneo?
The only difference is that in the North Xing'an Mountains, the enemies here are more ferocious and cunning, and their weapons are also more advanced - of course, no matter how advanced they are, they are not as advanced as Ming Dynasty.

As the Ming Army summed up the experience of the Battle of Leliuhe, the army began to fully replace the rear-loading guns, and the infantry companies began to equip mortars and mountain artillery platoons to make up for the disadvantages of the rear-loading guns. Grouping for fire output.

This caught some gun factories that had mass-produced front-loading rifled guns by surprise. In addition to the rifled guns in stock, a large number of rifled guns replaced by the army were also looking for buyers everywhere.

As a result, the price of rifled guns was knocked down immediately.

Now in the hands of farmers in the Northeast, there are not many people who still use muskets-the consumption power of farmers is generally higher than that of farmers and workers in the customs.

"If the wild boar skin had raised troops, the people of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty would have been armed with guns and dared to fight. Let alone the thirteen sets of armor, he would have 13 sets of armor, and he would have been beaten into a hornet's nest."

Chen Zhongliang said with emotion.

"If everyone had a gun, the officials of the former Ming Dynasty would not dare to oppress the people too much." Tian Shanyue said.

To sum up, the demise of the former Ming Dynasty is the obvious learning of the new Ming Dynasty today, and even the emperor talks about the experience and lessons of the demise of the former Ming Dynasty every day.

So Tian Shanyue said it casually, and did not commit any taboos.
"Speaking of which, brother Chen has been operating in the Northeast for many years, and the emperor must also remember his contribution. In my opinion, the time for brother to be promoted is not too far away."

Chen Zhongliang smiled wryly. To be honest, being an official in the Northeast is very hard. Although he is a high-ranking official, the people with guns here in the Northeast are not as afraid of him as the people in the pass are when they see a high-ranking official. .

If the policy is not in line with people's hearts, people dare to make trouble on the spot.

The common people of Ming Dynasty here are really difficult to manage.

If Chen Zhongliang were to choose by himself, he would rather go to be a magistrate in the pass
Just when the two were talking.

A green-robed official came in a hurry.

"Director Chen, the government affairs council has transferred orders! Congratulations on your promotion!"

"Gao Sheng? Where are you going?"

"Promote Chen Zhongliang as governor of the California Protectorate?!" Chen Zhongliang was stunned, "Where is California?"

"In the New World!" (End of this chapter)
