El Salvador, its full name is San Salvador next to Halloween Bay.
This is the main city of the Bayinya colony and the core of the entire Brazilian Governor's jurisdiction.
The city of El Salvador was also the first serious city established by Portuguese colonists in the jurisdiction of the Brazilian Governor, and it has a history of more than a hundred years.
The streets here are neat and tall buildings are lined with them, and the prosperity is even far beyond that of most cities in the continent.
Especially the Governor's Mansion, it is even more luxurious and elegant than the royal palace in Europe.
Prince Kong Dai sat on a throne covered with gold and gems. Looking at the two ministers under him, he couldn't help but feel proud.
Hehe, who would have thought that three important leaders, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, would fight for a country.
Of course, this country does not refer to France, the Netherlands, or the United Kingdom, but their ideal country.
In the end, their country may annex France, the Netherlands and Britain and become a superpower, just like it has annexed Spain in Portugal at this time, even stronger!
He was secretly proud and then said seriously: "Duke Minuyonte, how many shipbuilders have you contacted, and when will you come here?"
Of course, Minuionte is not a duke.
This was their private agreement, and once a new kingdom was established, he would confer the Dukes of Minuionte and Breck.
If they can fight back to the continent and take away the position of King of France, then Minuyonte will be the Grand Duke of the Netherlands, and Blake will be the Grand Duke of the United Kingdom. He will help Minuyonte and Blake to take over the Netherlands and the British mainland, so that they will both become the lords of a country.
Well, such a big temptation is indeed irresistible.
Therefore, Minuyinte and Blake both secretly ruled out their own country and were ready to follow Prince Kong Dai wholeheartedly.
Minuionte also said seriously: "His Majesty the King, if you want to build a large ocean-going ship, you must at least have thousands of skilled craftsmen.
These craftsmen are treated very well in the Netherlands, and it is a bit difficult to impress them.
The confidants I sent secretly convinced less than 500 people. If they were to reach the scale of a thousand people, it would probably take half a year."
Is the salary very high?
Prince Kong Dai said without hesitation: "Then double the wages they pay. In short, it must be faster, the faster the better."
Uh, the wages doubled!
The original wage was about one pound of silver per month, and they all offered people two pounds of silver per month, and if they doubled it, it would be four pounds of silver per month.
A thousand people make four thousand pounds of silver a month!
This is almost the same as the price of a boat of mahogany and teak.
Minuionte couldn't help but be surprised and said, "His Majesty the King, do we really pay such high wages?"
Prince Kong Dai said in a silence: "Is wages important?
The important thing is that they can come here as soon as possible to build a ship for us!
If we can take South America and dominate the continent, what is four pounds of silver a month?”
Well, this means cheating. As long as you cheat, you can't help these people!
Minuyinte nodded slowly and said, "I understand."
Prince Condai continued to ask: "How are you in contact with the slave-trafficking merchants? Can they send us 100,000 slaves every month?"
This is a bit difficult.
Minuyinte could only explain: "His Majesty the King, these slaves were captured one by one. It was a bit difficult for them to capture tens of thousands a month, but it was indeed a bit difficult to capture hundreds of thousands a month."
Is it difficult?
Prince Kong Dai couldn't help but snorted: "If they don't work, please contact a few more companies.
You should know how much we need slaves at this moment.
It has been more than a year since we cut down almost one fifty of the primitive jungle here. If we cut down slowly like this, it will take fifty or sixty years just to cut down the jungle here.
There is also a farm, and one farm requires hundreds of slaves. We need to open at least hundreds of farms a month. How can we do without slaves?”
All right.
Minuyinte could only nod and said, "I try to find a way to contact other slave traders.
”
Prince Conde said to Blake again: "Duke, are you in touch with the people who build the steamship?"
Brock was quite embarrassed: "I have contacted this, but the British king attaches great importance to these people. Not only did he offer them extremely high wages, but he also sent hundreds of troops to watch over them in the name of protecting them. It is difficult for us to take people over!"
No matter how difficult it is, it must be done.
Prince Kong Dai said without hesitation: "How much does it cost to pay?
How much does the British king open? I will double it for them!
As for hundreds of army, it is impossible to send thousands of people to pretend to be pirates and make them.
In short, these people should be brought over quickly.
At that time, with the craftsmen from the Netherlands, we will be able to build a large number of steam ships.
The Dutch and the British had brain problems. They were all right now, but they didn't know how to cooperate and work hard to build steamships.
They can’t do it, let’s do it!”
Well, we are Dutch and British, too, okay?
Blake thought for a while, then said carefully: "His Majesty the King, if I ask my subordinates to kill those hundreds of people, they may be a little unwilling to do so."
It is indeed not good to kill one's own people, and it is easy to cause problems.
Prince Condai said decisively: "You sent your confidant to bring Minuyonte's people over.
In short, we must build a large number of steam-powered warships as soon as possible.
You should have seen how powerful the warships driven by the steam engine are.
The navy of the Ming Empire was all steam engine-driven warships, and naval battles were almost invincible!"
Things in the world are so coincidental. As soon as they talked about the Ming Empire, the Ming Empire really came.
"Report, Your Highness, the Western Front urgently."
His Majesty the King was just the private name of the three of them, and he was still the prince in front of outsiders.
When Prince Kong Dai heard this, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Come in."
They are discussing important things. What urgent reports can be important?
Soon, a guard walked in with an envelope.
He took the envelope and opened it, and couldn't help but look shocked.
Hundreds of thousands of iron-armored cavalry suddenly rushed out of the jungle to the west and snatched the black slaves under their command!
What yellow and black people?
The only one who can bring out 100,000 iron-armored cavalry in this world is the Ming Empire!
He was stunned for a while with shock on his face, and then waved his hand to instruct the guard to retreat.
Seeing this, Bulake carefully approached and asked, "His Majesty the King, what's wrong?"
What's wrong?
Prince Kong Dai directly put the urgent report in his hand into his hands.
Blake took it and looked shocked.
What's going on?
Miuyinte went up to see it and was also shocked.
The Ming Empire is the Ming Empire again!
They all suffered losses at the hands of the Ming Empire, so they naturally knew the strength of the Ming Empire.
In this world, only the Ming Empire can bring out 100,000 iron-armored cavalry.
what to do?
The three of them were stunned for a while with shock on their faces. Then Prince Kong Dai gritted his teeth and said, "The Ming Empire is too bullying!"
What does this mean is to fight against the Ming Empire?
When Bulaik heard this, he said with a trepidation: "His Majesty the King, are we going to go to war with them?"
Minuoyinte was also worried and said, "Your Majesty the King, the Ming Empire is too strong, so why don't we avoid it?"
avoid?
Where to avoid?
They finally tricked tens of thousands of troops to capture such a territory that could establish a country.
This is their foundation!
