"Now that the Wei-Gansu Chamber of Commerce has been destroyed, Wuli and his son have been sentenced to death." Liu Yu looked at Wuda and said softly.

Wuda looked lonely, and Wuli was very good to him. As the port official he promoted, he had always done his best until the Ming army took over Weigan.

During the rebellion of the mercenaries, Wu Li, who was desperate, set fire to burn his private house and buried his whole family in ruins.

When Wuda got the news, the huge Wu family house had already been empty.

"Since the house is empty, then you can move in." Liu Yu said.

Wuda was stunned,

"Sir, this is not a joke," Uda shivered, a little disbelief.

Liu Yu glanced at the Weigan officials who were stretching their necks to look at them.

"It's not just the Wu family mansion, but also the manor plantation outside the city belongs to you Wuda." Liu Yu said.

"Mr. Xie." Wuda was extremely excited, his legs trembled, and he knelt down involuntarily, and quickly kowtowed and said loudly.

The Weigan officials beside him were stunned.

Liu Yu was not disgusted with these Luzon Tucao. These Luzon Tucao, which were culturally employed by the Spanish, managed Luzon's affairs in all sizes and sizes for the Spanish, and were quite competent.

Today, the Luzon Ming court is at the moment of hiring people, and the number of Chinese in Luzon is far lower than Liu Yu's expectations.

This forced Liu Yu to change his attitude and start to support some Luzon Tufans who served for the Ming court.

Reusing Uda in this way is also an attitude to give Weigan's local Tufan.

My Ming Dynasty is much more enlightened than the Spanish. As long as I can serve the Ming Dynasty, my wealth is just around the corner.

"Get up, now you are in charge of everything in the port. You must do your best to manage the Weigan Port for my Ming court." Liu Yu said earnestly.

"Please rest assured, the villain will definitely live up to his trust."

Seeing that the show was over, Liu Yu turned around and walked towards the dock.

The Weigan officials waiting on the side came forward to congratulate.

Wuda directly left these wine bags and followed them all the way.

Since the Ming army took over the Chamber of Commerce Wharf, the ships of the Sihai Commercial Bank have also arrived here one after another.

Looking at the various ships parked on the berth, Liu Yu was very satisfied.

"How many ships are there in total moored at the port of Wuda and Weigan?" Liu Yu asked.

"If you are the master, after the destruction of the Chamber of Commerce, the ships under the Chamber of Commerce were merged with the ships of the Sihai Commercial Bank. Now there are more than 100 ships of all sizes, including 30 three-masted ships with ocean-going capabilities." Wuda, who was jogging all the way, replied 151.

"Sir, due to the Ming army's ban and the rampant pirates, merchant ships cannot go out to sea to trade, and fishing boats dare not go out to sea to catch fish. The current Weigan caravan, sailors and fishermen cannot make ends meet." Wuda murmured in a low voice.

Liu Yu naturally saw that most of the ships anchored at the pier were abandoned and there was no one on the boat.

"It's not that my Ming court disregards the livelihood of the people of Weigan, but that pirates are rampant, and all ships going to sea trade are immune to the disaster. They have to come up with this bad plan." Liu Yu said calmly.

"To be honest, some fishermen were unable to make ends meet a living a few days ago and went out to sea to catch fish and finally died tragically under the pirate's knife, with only one escaped."

When he heard this, Liu Yu was shocked.

"Pirates are so rampant, if you didn't want to trap Weigan to death." Liu Yu was in trouble.

Just as the two were walking and talking, several Ming generals were also rushing here.

"I will meet the Marquis at the end."

"General Li, how is the fleet?" Liu Yu came here to find out what the situation was like for several armed merchant ships under the Chamber of Commerce.

"Sir, while the mercenaries were plundering everywhere last night, our army took advantage of the opportunity to take down ships of the Chamber of Commerce, and the six armed merchant ships were also under the control of our army." Duke Li.

"Very good." After hearing what Li Du said, Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

This Du Li is also an old man from the Shuishi Town. Like Liu Quan, he was born as a general from the Shuishi Town.

In the Battle of Penghu, he was injured by Qing army artillery and was unconscious.

Xiao Wu loved talents and brought him with him when he defected to Luzon. It was a miracle that he had been wandering on the sea for more than ten days from Taiwan to Luzon.

He had been recuperating in Mingcheng on weekdays. Liu Quan led his troops to take over Weigan, and he followed him.

Liu Quan was relieved to hand over the fleet he had finally seized.

"This mercenary is so cruel that he actually killed all the sailors on the ship. By the time our army took over, they were already empty ships." Perhaps because his injuries had not healed, Li Du's face turned pale.

"But fortunately, the pirates besieged Weigan, and many merchant fleets were unable to make ends meet. When our army recruited sailors this morning, many ocean-going experts came to serve our Ming army." Duke Li reluctantly smiled.

"So, now our Ming army is forming a navy again." Liu Yu asked.

"Vigan is a port of Luzon, so there is naturally no shortage of ocean-going experts. These people are enough to form a navy."

"However," Du Li looked embarrassed.

"Is there any problem?" Liu Yu asked in his heart and asked quickly.

"Most of the artillery equipped with the caravan are small cannons, and the power of the cannons are small and poor. However, there are only a few cannons on each merchant ship. At most, they can bombard the haunted pirates and clutches, and they cannot fight with the Flangers." Li Dudao.

"I should have thought of it, how could this Folang Jiman leave such an armed fleet under his nose?" Liu Yu sighed.

But he thought about it again, it was better to have it than not.

He immediately told Wuda: "The Ming army controls Weigan, so can the Weigan dock build large ships for the Ming army?"

"If you want to build a large ship, the dock can naturally be built, but it consumes more silver and wood."

"This is not a problem," Liu Yu shook his head.

"Last time Su Langqing came forward to build two armed merchant ships for our Ming army to install artillery decks. This time I hope the dock can build more such ships."

Liu Yu is not short of ships now, and even has a shipyard that can build large ships.

Although merchant ships were obviously at a disadvantage against the Spanish warships, they were still OK to deal with the Qing army or pirates.

But the most critical question now is artillery, how to obtain those heavy artillery.

"I remember Vigan also has a workshop that produces gunpowder and firearms."

Liu Yu remembered Su Langqing's statement that more than 20 small cannons were seized at the port, which shows that Weigan does have a workshop for producing firearms.

"It's all the Chamber of Commerce recruited craftsmen to imitate the Spaniards' large-sized rotary cannons," Uda said undeniably.

"These small cannons are easy to produce, not easy to explode, and are quite useful to deal with pirates. Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce secretly imitates them in private." Wuda said with a wry smile.

"So Weigan's firearm workshop can indeed make some small cannons of two or three pounds," Liu Yu murmured.

These two or three-pound cannons are indeed of great use for the Chamber of Commerce.

However, it was not enough for the Ming army.

"Let's recruit sailors first. What Weigan lacks the most now is excellent sailors."
