Chapter 229
Zheng Zhilong is now gradually dispelling the road to seeking officials!
In the past, he also wanted to follow Da Ming, but Da Ming was too ruthless and did not play cards according to common sense.
Once he became the general of the Ming Dynasty, the Zheng family's losses were huge and not in his interests.
That's why I joined forces with the Southeast Maritime Merchants and the Hao clan to force the palace, thinking that ~ I could make the Son of Heaven kneel.
Unexpectedly, the Son of Heaven slapped them with a backhand and directly stunned them!
The northern Tatars cleaned up, turned around and suppressed them, just a bastard with no Wende and no martial arts!
Zheng Zhilong was very desperate, but in despair, he saw the hope of being the master of his own house.
After winning Dongfan, Zheng Zhilong's ambition skyrocketed.
After seeing that the population of Dongfan was already 1.2 million, he realized that the official he had been pursuing was in his own hands.
It's like following the Ming Emperor, and worrying all day long, isn't it fragrant to build a country by yourself?
Although it is impossible to build an empire like the Ming Dynasty, there is no problem in building a kingdom level.
There are many principalities in Xiyi, and the kingdom is already the highest, and there is no empire like the Ming Dynasty.
Although there was once an empire in Xiyi, it is now fragmented and war-torn fought.
He built a kingdom based on Dongfan, which was safe, and it was much more fragrant than a Ming Sanpin water master.
It's not that there are no talents around him, although he is a pirate, but the connection with the southeast is too deep.
There are a lot of talents who have been driven away by Zhu Youzhen, a ruthless man, and the time to make full use of these talents and establish a kingdom is approaching.
Immediately summoned the core personnel of the Zheng family together for a secret meeting of the Zheng family.
Zheng Zhibao said: "Big brother, do whatever you say, we will listen to you." "
This kid is a warmonger, and he also knows that the opportunity of the Zheng family lies in Dongfan.
The brothers can be said to be very excited, they used to be pirates, and they have been killing in the blue sea.
I wanted to go ashore, find a comfortable place to retire, and then develop the Zheng family into a pirate family.
Unexpectedly, just had such an idea and was ready to go ashore, but the Ming Empire underwent great changes.
Originally, the gentry were in the world, but they were directly beaten by today's son and lost the privileges of the gentry world.
Zheng Zhilong watched the Ming Empire play like this, so the Zheng family had no chance to get ahead, and it was impossible to get an official from Zhu Youzhen.
Unless the Zheng family is willing to disperse all the wealth and seek officials, they must be obedient, which is a condition that Zheng Zhilong cannot accept.
Zheng Zhihu laughed and said, "Fourth brother, you can do it, I can also see that my Zheng family is about to run in time." "
Zheng Zhifeng said: "Who would have thought that today would be so fierce that my Zheng family would pick up a big bargain." "
The Zheng family is very optimistic, and the Zheng family's sea fleet is currently the hegemon of the East and can confront the existence of Xiyi.
As for the Da Ming Sailors, in their eyes, as long as they want to, dare to appear on the sea, they have the confidence to extinguish.
Especially the navy of the Ming Dynasty, the Zheng family did not believe that the Ming Dynasty could be established within ten years.
After all, most of the soldiers who understand water nature and water warfare have fallen into the pockets of the Zheng family.
Sailors and generals on the water are very difficult to train!
The Zheng family has also gone through twenty or thirty years of development to have such a scale!
At the same time, the Zheng family annexed a large number of pirates at sea, do you really think that the navy is like the army, and it only takes a year and a half of training to become an army?
Training in the navy is quite difficult, and it also requires familiarity with various maritime knowledge such as sea routes, climate, and reefs.
They can fight with Xiyi because they are familiar with the terrain of the eastern sea and all kinds of safe water passages!
Zheng Zhipeng said: "The decision of the elder brothers is, anyway, it is impossible for our Zheng family to work for Daming. "
Zheng Zhilong laughed and said, "It seems that all the brothers have seen it, very good! Our Zheng family has indeed picked up a big bargain." "
After that, Zheng Zhilong said proudly: "In the past, what the Zheng family lacked most was scholars, lack of management talents, and lack of population.
But now those fears have been addressed.
However, the population is not enough, and it will continue to expand through smuggling channels to complete the scale of 3 million to 5 million.
With these population bases, then the foundation of our Zheng family is completed. "
Zheng Zhipeng said disdainfully: "This tyrant is stupid, and he has taken advantage of our Zheng family in vain."
Hehe, who would have thought that he would be so ruthless and directly destroy his foundation. "
Zheng Zhihu nodded and said, "Now we just need to focus on developing well, especially our greatest advantage, the navy."
With a strong navy, with the weak naval strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is not our Zheng family's dish at all!" (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "So as long as our Zheng family completes the task of a minimum population of three million this year, our Zheng family can establish a country." "
Zheng Zhilong was also quite excited in his heart, to establish a country, and he would be the king in the future, it was too fragrant!
As for the emperor, he doesn't have the courage yet, if he stimulates Zhu Youzhen, he will directly control the coastal area.

Then he's going to cry![]
At present, Dongfan has not been developed and requires a lot of resources.
And these materials and resources are inseparable from Daming, and they cannot be self-reliant.
originally wanted to kill Liu Xiang, but now Zheng Zhilong doesn't think so, he can recruit him and become his own admiral.
Liu Xiang's ability, he knows it very well, is not a simple character.
And the Zheng family won Dongfan first, and Liu Xiang lost the opportunity to be the boss.
Moreover, Liu Xiang has been pressed by Xiyi step by step, without his support, Liu Xiang's demise is a matter of time.
Zheng Zhifeng said worriedly: "Big brother, I'm worried that Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three southeastern provinces, will be wary of us..."
Zheng Zhilong said: "Don't be afraid, as long as Xiong Wencan is still serving as the governor of Fujian, then we can continue to smuggle people." "
He has sent a special envoy to meet Xiong Wencan secretly, and has received a letter from the flying pigeon, informing Xiong Wencan that he has agreed.
However, how to fool the population, that is their business, Xiong Wencan cannot end up.
But Xiong Wencan is also a ruthless person, and a common man shouts for ten taels of silver.
Zheng Zhilong also pinched his nose and recognized it!
There is no way, Xiong Wencan is the only one who communicates with them at the moment, and the other feudal officials have no chance at all.
If your identity is revealed, you will be arrested immediately and beheaded.
Zheng Zhihu knew this information, gritted his teeth and said:
"Big brother, this Xiong Wencan is too greedy, he doesn't do anything, he just acquiesces to us to emigrate, and he asks for ten taels of silver, regardless of the old and weak, women and children, this..."
Zheng Zhilong shook his head and smiled: "Second brother, don't care about this bit of silver.
When the money is gone, we can make it, but once the population misses this opportunity, it will be difficult in the future. "
He didn't have such a vision, but analyzed it by the advisors around him.
He thinks it makes a lot of sense!
As long as there is a sufficient population base and 20 years of development, the Zheng family's great cause can be achieved.
Although he also felt distressed and had a pain in his liver, he thought that the Zheng family could establish a country, but he felt that this bit of silver was too well spent.
Especially the gentry, the Zheng family is really not lacking at present, and he is sincerely grateful to Zhu Youzhen for his cruelty to the gentry.
If there was no ruthlessness like Zhu Youzhen, these gentry would not follow the Zheng family.
This is very important, the problems he was most worried about have been solved, if the Zheng family misses it, he will be a big idiot.
