Rebirth of South America as King

"Master Liang, please stay."

After the conversation, Liang Xing was about to leave and was stopped by Wu Jin.

"When is Wu Chengzhu still?"

"When I was at the port this morning, I met a few Lanfang businessmen who asked to invest in Songkhla. Wu felt that there might be another reason, so he asked Master Liang if he would like to accompany Wu to meet with him tomorrow. See them. "

"Lanfang businessmen are not in the minority doing business in the Malay Peninsula. Maybe there are people who can use this time. Learn more from them about the situation of the various kingdoms in the Central Malay Peninsula. That's bad. "

"Yes, Wu also believes that more contact with them will have some benefits for the next military operation." ...

The next morning, the seven Lanfang businessmen gathered early in the parlour and whispered to each other.

"Ancient treasurer, is Songkhla City going to fight? Yesterday, more than a dozen ships came to the dock, all of them were equipped with uniform breech rifles. The bright bayonet on that rifle looked really good."

"Nine out of ten are about to fight. Yesterday, not only did more than ten soldiers come to the dock. There were eight gunboats and gunboats docked in the port outside the dock. There are at most five or six small steamers in the hands of the Thais, and both the tonnage and the cannons on board are far worse than the gunboats in Songkhla. "

"I want to say that it was a pity that Jiatai did not choose to cooperate with the Nanyang Army six years ago. If the target of cooperation with the Nanyang Army is Lan Fang, it is said that the eight warships outside the port will now dock at Dongwanlu Port. ".........

The Liu family's control over Lan Fang has gradually strengthened. Since the first generation of the family owner Liu Taier took the position of Lan Fang Jia Tai, the Liu family has already appointed four people who hold the position of Lan Fang Jia Tai, and has controlled Lan Fang for almost 40 years .

In the process of the Liu family's expansion of power, the four old families of the original Lanfang, Luo, Chen, Gu, and Jiang, were excluded from the center of power. Their power and financial resources were deprived and weakened, and the two sides accumulated. The contradiction is better than ever.

"The Lanfang company is the foundation of the four families of Luo, Jiang, Chen and Gu. The Liu family only got the position of Jiatai with the support of the Dutch. Today, the Liu family and his son ignore the Lanfang in order to please the Dutch. 300,000 people died, allowing the Dutch to send an administrative officer to supervise Lan Fang's internal affairs, and then let the Liu family's unbridled development continue, and Lan Fang's death was in sight.

Ladies and gentlemen, our foundation and family business are in Lanfang. If Lanfang dies, even if we can escape, we will lose the land and wealth accumulated over a century, without wealth and power, you will really be willing ? "

"There is no way to be reconciled. Lan Fang is in the hands of Liu's father and son. Dongwanlu and Shakou's customs, docks and ports are all supervised by Dutch-appointed administrative officers. We just want to make a difference. Nowhere to start. "

"It is not impossible. There are more than a thousand armed merchant groups directly under the control of the four major families. If they can go online with the Nanyang Army through Wu Chengzhu, and smuggle some weapons and ammunition from the Nanyang Army, it may be impossible to bring Liu Asheng and his sons together. Get out of office. "

"The Lord Luo is true. Yesterday, my fellows saw the Songka army removing boxes and boxes of goods from the ship. The wooden boxes were more than two meters long and half a meter wide. It takes three or four people to lift it, and then contact the Nanyang Army to dispatch the Natuna Islands garrison to Songkhla. Those boxes are definitely muskets and ammunition given to the Lord of Song. "

"Yeah, that is to buy two or three hundred rifle rifles from the Nanyang Army. We are not afraid of the threat of the Liu family."

Everyone talked and expressed their dissatisfaction with Liu Asheng.

"Master Luo, your ancestor was the ruler of Lanfang's entrepreneurial lord, Luo. It is also your idea to come to Songka to visit Wu Chengzhu this time. You said to come up with a charter and tell us what to do. We all listen to your arrangements."

"Thank you Brother Liang and everyone for your love, Luo was not a greedy for money and wealth, but just watched the foundation inherited by his ancestors. He was betrayed by a villain like Liu Asheng and his son. It ’s really hard to feel safe, so for the time being the Luo family "In the name of this, we asked all the heads of household to form an alliance to oppose Liu Asheng and his son, and to take back Lanfang's leadership."

Luo Yibo directly and unequivocally stated his resolute opposition to the rule of the Liu family and his rule of Lan Fang. He continued to say that “Originally, Lan Fang ranked first among many Nanyang Chinese influencers, but in the past two years, Songka has received support from the Han country. The armed forces have surpassed Lan Fang. If we want to bring down the Liu family father and son successfully, we can only choose one way with the help of the Han forces. "

"Master Luo, the relationship between Han Dynasty and Lan Fang has not been very good. Will they promise to help us?"

"Will they help us, and I have no firm determination."

Luo Yibo shook his head, his tone rising, "But opportunities are being fought for. If we don't work hard to create opportunities ourselves, Lan Fang will only have a dead end."

"I heard that the King of the Han Dynasty likes beauty. Lord Luo, otherwise, you marry your sister to His Royal Highness Han, and the two form a marriage with their relatives. In that case, the Nanyang Army will definitely help the Lord Luo to deal with Liu's father and son. After the Liu family father and son and the Dutch, the Liu family owner was able to play the role of state owner. "

"Go and go, Boss Zhou has some uncontrollable puppetism. If His Royal Highness is as greedy and wealthy as you think, he will be able to hit South America for free, not to mention that the sister Luo has once married, and is a big yellow girl. , Others may not be able to catch the eye. "

"That is not necessarily the case. Wu Cheng mainly does not marry his daughter to His Royal Highness the Han Dynasty. He can get such strong support from the Han Dynasty. As I said, he still has to find a way to marry His Royal Highness."

"It's a good way for the two parties to get married, but there is no suitable candidate for the Luo family and your family for the time being. The marriage can be temporarily postponed. However, we can do a few things for the Nanyang Army and Wu Chengzhu."

"Master Luo, please tell me clearly."

"One is led by the four major families, which brought out 700,000 pairs of silver, and the other three companies each took out 100,000 pairs of silver, making up one million two whole numbers, and handed over the silver to the Nanyang Army unconditionally in the name of helping the war, and told the Han Dynasty The sincerity of our cooperation with the Han country,

Second, the family behind the seven homeowners sitting there, the Zhou family at the latest in the Southern Ocean, has also been operating locally for three or forty years, and each has more or less business dealings in the Malay Peninsula ~ www. wuxiaspot.com ~ During the world peace period, our business dealings in the Malay Peninsula were not very useful, but now the Nanyang Army and Wucheng mainly use force in the central area of ​​the Malay Peninsula. With our eyeliner operating locally, we can help. It's easy to say that we can play a significant role simply by reducing conflicts with local British businessmen. "

"The Lord Luo is convinced that the Nanyang Army will participate in Songkhla's internal affairs?"

"You can't go wrong. More than 40 years ago, the rebellion of the King of Kedah, Songkhla violated the order of the Kingdom of Thailand and refused to send troops to assist. He did not rashly intervene in Songka ’s internal affairs by force, and did not take advantage of the mutual restraint of Thailand and Britain to unify Songka ’s internal military and political affairs. He missed the opportunity and will not have such good luck in the future. "

The Lanfang Chinese walked the various kingdoms of the Malay Peninsula to conduct business and mine. The collection of local history, religion and culture was an extremely important task. Luo Yibo combined his understanding of the Malay Peninsula and the intelligence support provided by other families. Analyze the key points of the integration of the Nanyang Legion in the central part of the Malay Peninsula, that is, pay equal attention to politics and military affairs, carefully handle the intricate local political situation, limit the military operation area to four provinces and one state, and infiltrate the British economic and political forces. The deeper Kedah, Terengganu and Perlis have adopted the policy of maintaining the status quo, using the Nanyang Army to acquiesce the British to control the three places and the display of their own force, and to eliminate the British Straits colonial government's meddling in fish and opportunities. As a result of this, Songka's internal military and political power was concentrated and a smooth transition was achieved.
