After conquering Colombo, Zheng Zhilong was not in a hurry. Colombo was a big port. The Portuguese rule reached hundreds of miles deep into the mainland with a population of hundreds of thousands. If you want to consolidate your rule, especially the future rule of your grandson, you must increase the number of Ming people.

If it were someone else, I might need to submit a memorial and ask the court for help, but who is Zheng Zhilong?

The ship king of the Ming Dynasty.

Besides, over the years, nearly 15% of the Ming Dynasty immigrants were transported out by the Zheng family's fleet. What is the Zheng family's best at? Isn't it just transporting immigrants!

So at the instruction of Zheng Zhilong, the Zheng family fleet specially drew 50 ships to transport immigration from the Ming Dynasty to Colombo. In the seventh year of the reign of the sacred people, after intentional or unintentional publicity by the government and newspapers, the Chinese people no longer regard overseas as a fear of their own way, and overseas immigration has long developed into an industrial chain.

First, the poor people from all provinces came to the coast under the organization of the government. At the same time, the rich gentry from all over the country subscribed.

"Immigration ticket" and "Immigration ticket" are ship tickets for transporting immigrants. The return is equal to the twenty-year land rent of the immigrant family for fifty acres of fertile land. You only need to spend twenty-thirty taels of silver to exchange for twenty-year land rent. This is a return of more than ten times!

In addition, the government has served as a security guard. In the past seven years, countless gentry and people have benefited from it and received generous returns. Therefore, the immigration of the Ming Dynasty has become the dominant government in the industrial chain, with the rich paying money, the poor immigrating, and the ship merchants transporting people.

The Zheng family was the last link, so it was natural to do this. Within two months, tens of thousands of Han people were transported to disembark at Colombo City.

Immigration comes, where does the land come from?

Because the local natives were numerous, they could not be driven away or killed directly. So they picked out the indigenous landlords. The men were executed for "resisting the army of the Celestial Empire", and the women were assigned to immigrants, and their land was also assigned to immigrants. Their slaves became official slaves, working in the south of the city to lead the water from the swamp in the south of the city, and transforming the south of the city into a large area of ​​paddy fields.

Cruel?

Colonization has never been gentle. Historically, when Westerners came to various places, they would be directly slaughtered. In this era, if you talk about "benevolence, righteousness and morality" with these people, you will definitely be yourself who is being kidnapped in the future.

Now, there is no need to be a bloody iron fist, and there will definitely be a big mess in the future!

Haven't you seen Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands commit countless murders in Southeast Asia. The natives not only obeyed, but also were as gentle as sheep. On the contrary, the Han people who valued benevolence, righteousness and morality became fat sheep in the eyes of Westerners and natives, and were repeatedly massacred by Westerners and natives.

Wolves eat meat when traveling for thousands of miles, and dogs eat shit when traveling for thousands of miles!

If you are not ruthless, others will be ruthless. You will suffer the loss. If you are ruthless, then others will suffer the loss.

"Hey, even the descendants of the king chopped their heads!"

Standing outside the city and looking at his head hanging in the wooden basket, Wang Jiezhi couldn't help but sigh.

Colombo City, once belonged to the Cote Kingdom on the island, nearly a hundred years ago, the inland state of Stavaca rose. After conquering the coastal lands of the Kingdom of Cote, the king was unable to resist the enemy and chose to convert to Christianity with his family, putting the country under the protection of the Portuguese. The descendants of the king were the biggest landlords here. Logically speaking, such "Yi Lao" should be pampered. But Zheng Zhilong directly cut off his head on the grounds of "helping the Portuguese resist."

"If we don't kill them all, we Han people come here. Where can we have land to cultivate? Kill!"

With Zheng Zhilong's order, hundreds of native landlords were killed, their wives and daughters became wives and concubines of immigrants, slaves became slaves of the government, and a considerable part of the property in the family became the private property of the officers and soldiers, and a part was tributed to His Majesty as tributes.

Faced with this "robbery behavior", Wang Jiezhi was inevitably extremely dissatisfied. To put it bluntly, he, who has been influenced by the articles of sages since childhood, inevitably has a kind heart, even if he knew that he could not only pay attention to benevolence, righteousness and morality to the barbarians, but his personality was like this.

However, Zheng Zhilong, who was born as a pirate, was different from the officials in the court. He didn't say anything about killing people without blinking, and he had no scruples at all. It was precisely because of this that Zheng Zhilong's atrocities in Colombo spread to the Ming Dynasty and even caused a sensation. The uproar was caused by Zheng Zhilong's tribute.

When a sea ship brought boxes of gems, gold and silver into the treasury as tributes, there were constant accusations in the newspapers, and the reason was that "as a general killed people and robbed money, he was really shameless." Of course, he also called him "the crime of deceiving the king". Why? Because he used the stolen things as tributes. Isn't this apart from the emperor?

Of course, no one dares to say this, but it can be explained that the emperor is unaware of it, so Zheng Zhilong committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!

When the newspapers were talking a lot, Zhu Guoqiang was enjoying the "dirty things" in the imperial garden of the imperial city. Although he was used to seeing treasures, the artworks covered with gems still made people feel quite fresh.

"Your Majesty, I heard from the newspaper that Colombo is a Buddha country, but the Portuguese attacked Buddhism there, many temples were destroyed, and monks were forced to convert. Buddhism was lost. If our Ming Dynasty wanted to continue to be in Changzhi Colombo, we might as well send elders to spread Buddhism to Colombo."

Standing in front of a Buddha statue, Li Jingyun looked at the Buddha statue inlaid with gems and said thoughtfully. She believed in Buddhism and even built a Buddhist temple in Nanjing, so she had this idea.

"Well, that's true. Not only is the lost Buddhism in Colombo, but the entire Ceylon is almost the same."

Unlike India, after Buddhism was introduced to Ceylon, Buddhism was the mainstream of the local area. When Indian Buddhism was destroyed, from the end of the 12th century to the mid-13th century, the local throne was occupied by foreign tribes, the capital was destroyed, and Buddhism was also destroyed. Many temples were destroyed and monks were forced to convert to the sect. It was not until the end of the 15th century that their revival began. However, their Buddhist teachings had been lost. King Vimalakirat, who ascended the throne in 1592, had to invite Burmese Buddhist elders twice to revive Thesaurus. In the following two hundred years, the local royal family continued to invite Buddhism. Siam sent Buddhist scriptures and statues that were not available in Ceylon, and sent many elders to give precepts, so that Theravada Buddhism gradually revived.

Siam can be given, why can’t the Ming Dynasty give it? Not only can it be given to Ceylon, but it can also be given to India. After all, compared with the Green Sect, Buddhism is more in line with the needs of rule.

"We want to spread Buddhism throughout Ceylon. If someone stops it, the local church will be demolished."

"Your Majesty, if my father demolishes the local Catholic church again, the newspaper may say something about destroying people's temples."

Zheng Jiumei said in a resentful tone:

"Your Majesty, they said that his father was a robber in Colombo, which was completely a robbery. He also said that his father was born as a pirate and did not change his gangster nature..."

"What's wrong with the pirate's origin!"

Li Huimei, who was beside her, said loudly.

"My father is also a pirate..."

Even if Li Ying and Zheng Zhilong were sworn brothers and had personal grudges, but in the harem, Li Huimei and Zheng Jiumei were good sisters. Why? Because the ones with the most similar backgrounds as fathers are all from pirates.

Ming Zhengze, who was standing beside him chuckled:

"Sisters, why bother to talk nonsense in newspapers? Those newspapers dare not say anything to attract attention."

Listening to their grievances, Zhu Guoqiang said as he looked at the treasures sent from Ceylon.

"Well, since it's dirty... then let's hide it, hide it in...the museum!"

Zhu Guoqiang said with a smile.

The dirt is not only not hidden, but also placed in a glass cabinet to display it, so that the visitor can appreciate it from all directions.

How about it?

Even if their descendants come in hundreds of years, they can enjoy it through the glass window cabinet.

They knew clearly that it was their thing, because the plaque next to it clearly stated that it was their thing, and there was also a passage to explain how important this thing was to him and their culture.

Want to go back?

Of course, it is completely impossible for us to agree.

If you want to see it, you can come and see it. Do you think it seems familiar? Be familiar!

Well, that's what the British and French do.

You want to go back, but there is no door!

Of course, in the end, Zhu Guoqiang rewarded a large amount of jewelry to the concubines in the harem. For a moment, the imperial garden was filled with gratitude...
Chapter completed!
