Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 407 The fierce Han people

Hawaiian Islands in the Central Pacific.

Now it is a municipality directly under the central government of Xiazhou in the Ming Dynasty - Xiazhou is directly under the jurisdiction not because of the importance of this port in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

It's because the nearest provincial administrative regions are too far away.

Xiazhou is under direct jurisdiction just to save administrative costs.

Now, Xiazhou Port has become a transfer station for many Pacific immigration ships departing from Shanghai Port, Qingdao Port, Tianjin Port and Edo Port.

Whether it was the Japanese, Koreans who went to New Japan, or the Chinese who went to North America.

Many ships choose to dock in Xiazhou for repairs.

This also makes the "tourist economy" in the entire Xiazhou City extremely prosperous.

There are many small businessmen who come to the port area to open restaurants and restaurants.

But apart from the tourist economy.

The main economic income of Xiazhou City is the sugar factories established on large and small sugar cane plantations and the whale oil industry chain brought by the whaling industry.

The demand for whale oil has been increasing over the years.

More and more whaling ships are coming to Xiazhou, plus immigrant ships coming for repairs.

The prosperity of Xiazhou Port is even comparable to that of Guangzhou, Ningbo and other places.

However, the usually busy port is now temporarily closed.

Several steamships rumbled into the port.

The white smoke from the chimney of the steamer covered the sky and sun, and it slowly docked at the port pier like a steel behemoth.

Although steamships are no longer a rarity in this era.

But long-distance voyages like crossing the Pacific mainly rely on sail power.

The range of a steamship was limited by fuel.

Therefore, in Xiazhou Port, at most we have seen hybrid sailing and steam-powered ships - but occasionally steam-armored battleships towed by sailing ships enter the port.

But it was a warship.

So everyone is not too surprised.

The steamships that are coming now don't look like warships - after all, they don't have huge main guns, only small-caliber cannons on both sides that don't look particularly thick and are used for self-defense.

At the same time, the wide and towering hulls can also be seen - these steamships are unlikely to be warships, but are obviously large ships designed to carry cargo.

"Using steamers to carry cargo? Is the cost affordable?"

"Which shipping company's ship is this?"

"Is the Tuanlong flag hanging above it? Could it be that some prince is here?"

"Is it the King of Japan? Some time ago, the samurai group who heard about New Japan sent a letter, hoping that the King of Japan would go to New Japan to take charge."

"No! It can't be the King of Japan.",

"Hey, don't you know? This must be King Qin!!"

"King Qin?"

"Yes! King Qin wants to conquer Jinzhou. In the future, Jinzhou Mansion will be the territory of the New Qin Kingdom!"

"This means that the imperial court is about to attack the North American continent!"

The news spread.

The people watching throughout the port became excited.

Many people even shouted.

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Long live Daming!"

“Long live China1!!”

"Open up a new continent and make an unparalleled contribution!"

"Man, why don't you take Wu Gou and collect hundreds of states in the New World!"

"Go to the Mississippi plains!! That's the real valuable land!!"

"The fertile farming land is comparable to the Central Plains! Now it will all belong to our Chinese people!"

The news of King Qin's arrival obviously stimulated the emotions of the Han people in Xiazhou. Various slogans filled with nationalism made Bai Ning and Shen Song in the crowd look a little unhappy.

Bai Ning is Aixinjueluo Linning, the former Qing Shengqing general, and Shen Song is Song Shan'e, the deputy commander of the Northeast Eight Banners and Xianglan Banner.

Now the two of them came to Xiazhou and started a sugar cane farm.

They also opened a coolie business at the port - many Northeastern Eight Banners who escaped from the Northeast changed their names and followed Lin Ning, now they are Bai Ning, and started doing business with Bai Ning, Aixinjueluo.

Anyone who can open a coolie business in the port must have some underworld skills.

The remnants of the Eight Banners in Northeast China cannot defeat the Ming army in a battle.

But when it comes to bullying and bullying the underworld, Bai Ning is still the one who can speak out in Xiazhou Port.

"It's really Zhu Er who's here!"

Next to Bai Ning, Song Shan, who changed her name to Shen Song, whispered. "Emperor Zhu is really going to take action on the New World."

Bai Ning sighed and said.

"Hmph! Emperor Zhu is probably going to lose his mind if he sends a little kid with no hair to lead the army." Shen Song said coldly.

Bai Ning shook his head slightly: "You can't say that. I heard that Zhu Erpo is very capable. Haven't you heard? Many people secretly compare the second son of the Zhu family to Li Shimin!"

"Li Shimin led the troops, and Zhu Er also led the troops. Haha, but how many Li Shimins can there be in history!" Shen Song sneered.

"It doesn't matter whether Zhu Er is Li Shimin or not, what matters is them."

Bai Ning pouted at the enthusiastic people on the pier.

"Does Li Shimin have so many fanatical people under his command?"

Shen Song fell silent upon hearing this.

After a long time, he finally said helplessly: "Nowadays, the Han people are so fierce."

Shen Song felt a little dazed sometimes.

Are these unbelievably fierce people really Han Chinese?
Everyone holds a gun, everyone dares to fight, and everyone wants to fight!

If the Han people are really so fierce, how did our ancestors get into the country?
Just now.

A ladder was lowered from a large ship.

Just now.

The black-clothed detectives from Xiazhou City's Patrol Division came in line with short sticks and revolvers strapped to their waists.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin has arrived, everyone needs to step back and stay more than 150 meters away from the port pier! Civilians bend down, nobles bow, and soldiers or retired soldiers salute!"

A green-robed civil servant holding a loudspeaker shouted loudly.

soon.

The onlookers began to salute in a chaotic manner to welcome Zhu's second child.

Etiquette is mostly not very standard.

There are also many civilians who are bent over, but their eyes are looking forward in an unruly manner.

At this moment.

From a steam ship, a young man wearing a Ming army uniform and a prince's crown stepped off the ship. Behind him, two sturdy guards held two large flags.

On one side is the big bright sun and moon flag.

On one side is the Qin Wang Wang Banner.

The people of Xiazhou, who had no rules, began to chatter again.

"It looks like it!"

"Yes, yes, he is almost carved out of the same mold as the current saint in the portrait."

"No wonder some people call him Zhu Shimin."

"Hey, Emperor Taizong of Tang was also the King of Qin before."

The police officers in Xiazhou also had a headache when they heard the noisy discussion, but they really couldn't control these people with guns, so they could only let it go.

At this time, Dai Qu, the magistrate of Xiazhou City, was also fully dressed and came to greet him.

"Your Majesty, Dai Qu, pays homage to His Highness the Prince!"

Dai Qu was in a trance when he saw Zhu Laoer for the first time. He almost thought he saw Emperor Zhu in person - before coming to Danzhi City, Xiazhou, he had heard Emperor Zhu teach in person at Daohua University.

He is one of the first graduates of Dowa University.

I still have a certain understanding of Emperor Zhu, the teacher of Daohua University.

"I'm free of charge." Zhu Yixin's face was stern.

"Mayor Dai, can Xiazhou City prepare a supply of coal, fresh water and other materials?"

When Dai Qu heard this, he began to shake his head in his heart.

This second Zhu looks like Emperor Zhu, but his personality is nothing like him.

Xu Shi has been in the army for too long, and his whole behavior is completely military. He looks like a general, not a prince.

Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not look that much like Emperor Zhu.

But that kind of personality smiles at everyone.

On the contrary, it was copied almost exactly like Emperor Zhu.
These two brothers.

One looks like Lao Tzu.

One has a personality like Lao Tzu.

From the moment Zhu Lao Er arrived, he seemed to have a rigid and direct business style.

He is definitely not Zhu Shimin.

The so-called threat to the prince.

I'm afraid it's just random speculation by some ignorant people.
