When the prince went to the wild and primitive New World to prove himself and was transformed by the difficult environment of the New World, the Ming Empire, the most powerful empire in East Asia, continued to play that game of chess in the world.

Compared to his son's outstanding performance at the beginning, Mao Jue, I fell a big fuck when I lifted my hand.

Time returned to the fourth year of the Kaihong period of the Northern Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, and the prince had just left the old continent by boat.

Southeast Asia, Annan’s ancient capital Cham.

Originally, the port city with developed industry and commerce fell into a depression almost overnight. A few months ago, the scene of the Great Depression in Wenzhou was re-staged here. Shops were locked down one after another. The inn gates were originally crowded. If this was in the Central Plains, it could be explained by the New Year, but in the Chameng Kingdom, this was a real economic crisis.

The precious sandalwood, mahogany, sea yellow and other precious woods were harvested from the deep mountains, and they were thrown into the port like broken wooden boards. The precious South China Sea pearls were covered with dust in the store, as well as various medicinal materials, jewelry, spices, and large quantities of unsold in the warehouse. All the popular Nanyang specialties were unsold.

The nobles of the upper class can still close the door and rely on years of plundering others and accumulating the wealth they have collected to continue to enjoy wealth, but when the capital chain of those small businessmen below breaks, they will immediately face the dilemma of bankruptcy.

However, the damage caused by bankruptcy is still the least. Those wooden people, medicine people, Zhu people, workers, etc. who rely on these industrial chains immediately lost their jobs. In just one month, the entire Chameng City had a population of only hundreds of thousands, and the unemployed people had reached more than 100,000. They had no jobs and had no land of their own. These truly proletarian citizens immediately faced the dilemma of starvation to death.

Merchants are always the scapegoat for the turmoil of the times. Are there no businessmen without traitors? Especially the Ming Dynasty merchants or outsiders. Even if the Champa royal family secretly contributed to the fire, soon Mingying and the East India Company became the target of public criticism!

Garbage, stones, and all kinds of debris were thrown overwhelmed. The pieces of flat glass that originally symbolized wealth and beauty of the East India Company were smashed to pieces, and the fragments were smashed down. A thick layer of broken glass was piled up at the bottom of the building. A large number of chammen shouted slogans and surrounded the company's gates frantically, roaring and attacking fiercely.

"This group of bastards snatched our money and our food! Let them get out of Champa!"

"Let them spit out all the money!"

"Burn these vampires to death!!!"

Fortunately, before building this place, Mao Jue had already considered security issues. The main building of the company was better than the city wall, and there were thick courtyard walls on both sides. The company's armed mercenaries were vigilantly holding muskets and blocking the gate. There were also big wolfdogs specially raised roaring there. In the port, more than a dozen armed sailboats were ready to go, and for a while, they were not afraid of these chaotic people rushing in.

The originally busy company settlement hall was already in chaos at this time. Business accounting managers were packing their information and luggage in panic. At the order of the mercenary officer, they evacuated to the port. The only thing that was operating normally in the entire company seemed to be the directors' offices of the five central and southern countries in South Asia.

Amid the clamor, Miss Luo Yu, a business genius in the Luo family, was still flipping through the transaction manuscripts page by page. She looked carefully, so anxious that the accountant girl Chu Tian was like an ant Huabei of No. 9, with her little face chirping, and her sad side kept urging there.

"Sister Luo Yu! Now is not the time to work hard. If you don't leave, the rioters will be in a while!"

"Can't call in!"

His eyes were not lifted from the documents, and while sweeping the data quickly, Luo Yu said casually: "The Chameng Department is the headquarters of the Five Central and Southern China companies. A company mercenaries equipped with regular military weapons. If even the rioters cannot stop this little chaotic, they will not be worth the company spending so much money to raise every year. Letting the staff evacuate first is to save them from making noises and screams annoy me!"

With a clamor, Luo Yu asked again in a hurry when he looked at the next one in his hand.

“Have the evaluations from the other seven divisions been delivered?”

"I was delivered this morning. After analysis by the manager team, the situation in the coastal defense branch was still good and it was not affected. The situation in Bangkok and other branches were similar to Chameng. In addition, news came from the other end of the Luzon company headquarters that many purchasing and marketing merchants gathered in Manila to protest to the headquarters. However, most of the other end were our own people in the Ming Dynasty, and there was no conflict. The company is also mediating!"

After a capable answer, Chu Tian immediately covered her head and complained anxiously like a prodigal girl who could not receive the express delivery on Double Eleven.

"What are these guys who are so good that they are going to rebel suddenly?"

These words made Luo Yu, who was reading the document quickly, froze. After a while, she shook her head with difficulty.

"What's wrong with the company this time?"

As early as three months ago, when I got the import and export distribution statement for this quarter, Luo Yu had already anticipated this situation today! The economic turmoil that affected most of Southeast Asia was really the blame for Mingying and East India Company!

In a few years, with the full support of Mao Jue, the company blossomed everywhere like the water hyacinth that later generations invaded China. The tentacles almost penetrated more than a dozen Southeast Asian countries, and nearly controlled 70% to 80% of the commodity circulation. It can be said that the company controlled the lifelines of these countries without the ruling princes and nobles unknowingly!

But this spring, the company's orders for purchasing specialties from Southeast Asia suddenly dropped, less than one-fifth of previous years, but the export volume increased by 10% more than the same year. Even if the dumping and plundering were not so cruel, it was simply a waste of fishing! In an instant, merchants of all countries who relied on trade with the company, and even the large spice planters in the Luzon colonies suffered a nearly devastating blow, which was equivalent to the company's destruction of the market that it had been raised for several years!

The report also sent more than ten consecutive reports back to the Hangzhou headquarters, but one by one, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, without any response! No wonder Luo Yu was distressed.

Looking at her frowning, Chu Tian persuaded her helplessly: "Sister Luo Yu, you don't have to worry too much. After all, we have His Majesty behind us and the Ming Empire! With these mobs, we can't make a big splash. At worst, we can wait for His Majesty to send an army to come!"

But these words once again made Luo Yu shake his head anxiously.

"Wrong! The reason why Your Majesty fully supports the company is because the company can replace the expansion of the empire and earn a lot of money for the empire, rather than treating it as a drag. If the company is useless, Your Majesty will find someone to replace us without hesitation! We must find a way to solve the situation in front of us!"

In Chu Tian's stunned eyes, she finally finished reading the last data and threw the things on the table. Luo Yu suddenly stood up.

"There is no news on the palace, and the palace worships Gasol?"

"Don't mention that old guy. He has been pretending to be sick three days ago. He has visited Manager Liu several times with gifts, but he has never seen him!"

"Let Manager Liu go again, no need to bring gifts! It doesn't matter if the old turtle doesn't show up. Leave him a message and give him another three days. If he can't solve the chaos in Chameng Port, the company will evacuate immediately!"

An extremely cold and ruthless suddenly appeared on the pretty face. Luo Yu was abnormal, with endless murderous intent in the gloom. He looked at the messy people downstairs, and she ordered fiercely again.

"Send people to order the coastal defense branch Li Dagui to give up the delivery plan this year in the name of the headquarters of the five central and southern countries. The company will immediately shrink completely. In addition, let people prepare for the ship to Qinghua. I want to meet Ruan Yuelian, the Minister of the Annan Chief Minister!"

"The coastal defense branch also stopped receiving goods?"

This order made Chu Tian open his mouth wide in surprise and asked in surprise: "Sister Luo Yu, the coastal defense branch of the Five Kingdoms and 7th Branch is still in operation now. If the activities stop, the coastal defense side will be in chaos!"

"It's just a mess!"

Listening to this, Luo Yu's face became even more fierce, and she snorted coldly. Her beautiful starry eyes were tightly behind the iron gauze net, and the glass shattered by the stones clenched her fists with murderous intent.

"Not messy, how can we let the pigs in the palace know how powerful the company is?"

…………

Another young lady from the Luo family tried her best to start the rescue operation. The headquarters of Mingying United East India Company in Hangzhou was in chaos at this time.

Luo Yu could see the chaos that was about to break out in this quarter. Can those who can get involved in the business community in the Ming Dynasty? There are even many old foxes who cannot adapt to Mao Jue's reformed officialdom and have abandoned their official positions and entered the business community. How could they not see the upcoming disaster?

In just three or four months, the board of directors was suppressed by Luo Ning, the executive chairman. She also had an ambiguous relationship with Mao Jue. There were rumors that His Majesty would marry her, a well-known Hangzhou merchant, to strengthen the connection between the royal family and the local family of Hangzhou, and the first major family of the East India Company, so the board of directors was also waiting for it.

But until now, the entire Southeast Asia has rioted. Every day, the money they lost is their money! What depreciated is their stock price! The company is facing a collapse, and these directors can no longer bear it!

Now, these directors are not only the group of local merchants in Hangzhou who suffered heavy losses when they first formed the East India Company. The leader is Ruan Dacheng, the leader of the opposition eunuch party who was forced to flee to Hangzhou during the Donglin coup. While walking, the old ghost who had always smiled at Maitreya in the officialdom was still roaring furiously.

"Miss Luo must give an explanation now! If you follow His Majesty's order to win over the bastards from Wenzhou, I will have no complaints! But if not, then you have to explain why you should pull Zhang Pu's group of animals who are forgetful and unsuccessful! Even if you make trouble at His Majesty, I will do whatever you want!"

“That’s right!”

At this time, the ruthlessness of these capitalists was truly exposed! Although it was not yet as good as going to the point of being in the face of those British men with the royal family, they dared to show their heads and fight for their rights. Behind Ruan Dacheng, a group of executive directors were all imposing, and they rolled up their sleeves and shouted fiercely.

A hundred shareholders killed themselves from the board meeting hall upstairs and gave Luo Xin, the little girl who was assistant to the executive chairman, was also frightened. She threw the documents she was holding onto the ground, and her arms grew up, erected her bulging breasts, and blocked her in panic and shouted.

"You can't go in! The eldest lady gave her instructions. Today, she has important copy to do, and she can't be disturbed... Ah!!!"

But now that he has exhausted his patience, who cares about her? He didn't even have a theory. In her scream, Ruan Dacheng actually pulled her aside. Then his fat body suddenly hit the gate. With a click, the Huanghuali gate from Nanyang was actually directly knocked down.

The documents in the office were splattering all over the ground with the strong wind. However, what shocked the directors' door was that the huge office was empty and broke in incredible. Then, he pushed open the door of the lounge without hesitation. Ruan Dahusband returned to the many directors looking at each other with a gloomy face. Suddenly, he shouted loudly and stretched out his hand.

"Take this girl off!"

With his roar, several company bodyguards mobilized to press the fear of retreating assistant Luo Xin to the ground. In her scream, she pulled her delicate little hands hard to the back, and her slender and strong legs were also tied together. In the sound of a thud, the solid and heavy handcuffs were directly handcuffed to her back.

The delicate ankle was dragging its shackles of only ten centimeters. The female assistant was chasing her back in fear and was pushed and carried to the security room downstairs by several bodyguards. The people from the Luo family publicly could not even think about it in the past, but now, even the old shareholders of the Luo family did not say a word! Looking back at the scattered large desk, Ruan Dacheng finally clasped his fists again and was angry and helpless.
Chapter completed!
