"Constraint? It's better if you get used to it."

After Shi Daxuan adapted to the rules set by Zheng Zhilong, he felt that this was better. At least the mess of trampling on his feet when he went out would not happen again.

The city was full of traffic, and there were fewer disputes and quarrels.

From the initial disagreement to the current feeling, Shi Daxuan saw the strength of the entire Zheng Group.

"How do you say this?" He Bin asked.

The strength of the Zheng family was laid after Zheng Zhilong completed the separation of military and business. This is the common cognition of He Bin and the Dutch. In He Bin's cognition, this is the power of "order" and the embodiment of "system".

"Rules are implemented from top to bottom, from the army to the people, and they are implemented in one go. There are rules in the army, and the people must also have rules in the people. This is carried out at the same time."

If this is order and the power of the system, then what makes the Zheng Group powerful is from the foundation to the branches and the whole!

"You may have been very dissatisfied at the beginning, but in Anping, my brother's meaning is more useful than the imperial edict."

In this world, you can always encounter some things that you cannot resist, and at that time you can only accept it silently.

For example, there is not a single beggar in Anping City now. Those beggars with good hands and feet were sent to the officials to open up land and farm for labor and reform, while the little beggars inside were sent to the boy camp. Some truly disabled beggars were sent to the welfare home. To be fair, is this not good? Zheng Zhilong was full of compassion.

But there are certainly some people who are unwilling to do so, but they dare not and cannot resist.

There are also people who throw garbage, spit out shit, pee, or even urinate and defecate on the street. They must be dissatisfied when they are caught.

Not only do you have to hurt money, but you also have to wear a yellow vest with the words "labor reform" to sweep the streets and clean up the garbage in the trash can. You have to meet an acquaintance, not to mention how embarrassing it is.

No matter how much dissatisfaction or even resentment is, under the suppression of absolute power, there is no reaction.

Zheng Zhilong never thought that his rule would satisfy everyone. His changes to the rules of the people seemed to have touched the interests of many people, but those people were injured only.

Habits become nature, and when a rule is persevered, this habit will soon become a custom.

"No matter how many rules are there, no one will object to it as long as it is a good rule. Don't you think Anping is good now? We are all rich people, and we are in and out of Malaysia Express, but if you don't step on the shit, urine and garbage on the street, you can always smell the stinking, right? Isn't it good like this now?"

"You can breathe fresh air all day without smelling the stench. In the words of my elder brother, this is also a kind of happiness. As for life, living in Anping City is much better than living in Dayuan Town (outside Rhelan Chateau). Don't you think?"

Shi Daxuan stared at every change on He Bin's face. He didn't believe He Bin couldn't hear the implication of his words.

Of course, He Bin understood that 'smelling' refers not only to the sewage and garbage in Dayuan Town, but also to the smell of the Dutch. So his face suddenly changed and he grabbed Shi Daxuan's hand, "Have you decided to do it?"

He Bin, who had been doing business for the Dutch for many years, knew very well about the power of the Dutch, which was a powerful force.

"Just relying on the large plywood ships parked outside Anping City? There are hundreds of such ships, and they are just merchant ships. They also have dozens of professional warships. They are larger and stronger than merchant ships, and have stronger firepower. The power of the Zheng family's navy should not be underestimated, but rashly becoming enemies with the Dutch is not the best strategy!"

"Can the Dutch withdraw from the senior official?" Shi Daxuan disagreed with He Bin's words. The Dutch are very powerful, but the stalls they have opened are also very large, right?

This is like the Ming Dynasty, the thieves or the Qing Dynasty, and only talking about national strength, even the Ming Dynasty can crush them now, right? But what about reality?

"Exit the senior official?" He Bin immediately screamed as if he had heard a huge joke, "Do you know how much profit the Dutch can make from the senior official a year?"

"As for the seniors, the Dutch could input 200,000 deer skins to Japan a year. The output of sugar was enough to supply Japan and Persia's needs. In addition, trade with Zheng, spices, pepper, amber, ivory, lead and tin, cotton cloth, silk fabrics, ceramics, and ironware from the Ming Dynasty. The Dutch had 35 trading points in the East, and the income of the seniors was second only to Japan. According to Paul, the seniors accounted for one-quarter of all profits of the Eastern trade."

"The average net profit of 400,000 guild per year is available."

Dutch guil is a kind of gold coin, 50 guilt contains one ounce of gold, and 400,000 guilt contains eight thousand guilt guilt from the perspective of precious metals alone, about 248.8 kilograms of pure gold. In terms of purchasing power, in Europe at this time, 192 guilt can buy 2 tons of butter, and 30 guilt can buy a pig.

"If it were you, would you give in to me?"

He Bin looked at Shi Daxuan with his eyes, looking like "You are already crazy."

"So, Zheng Laosi advocated fighting." Shi Daxuan spread his hands and told He Bin to lose his words.

Yes, I just know that the Dutch will not give in, so I am going to fight. This is nothing wrong.

"The Zheng family is not Zheng Laosi's decision. It depends on the first official. Does he want to fight too?"

"That's not." Shi Daxuan replied casually, his expression did not seem to be fake. This is what He Bin's emotions have become much more stable.

"That's why we have to negotiate. We just need to ask whether the Dutch are willing to withdraw from the senior officials. If they are willing to withdraw from the senior officials, the eldest brother is willing to let Nan'ao Island go and allow them to set up a shopping mall to trade freely with our Daming maritime business."

In other words, Zheng Zhilong was willing to give up the meat he cut from the Dutch after the Battle of Luowan. The Chinese goods needed by the Dutch to trade with Japan must be transported to the senior officers through Zheng's hand. After the transfer, the Dutch side was transported to Japan for sale.

This is quite a lot of money.

He Bin's face shook when he heard Shi Daxuan's words.

Zheng Zhilong was willing to give up such a huge profit in exchange for the Dutch withdrawal from the Dayuan Island, which was a huge sum of money. It would be fine if things were done, but if this matter could not be done, the backlash of Zheng Zhilong, the Minhai King, could be imagined.

And for this negotiation first, this is not an obvious warning to the Dutch. The Dutch will definitely report to Batavia, and the latter will definitely send fleets and troops to reinforce.

Is Zheng Zhilong so confident that he can defeat the Dutch in one fell swoop?

Moreover, "What is the purpose of the first official? We must drive the Dutch away from the senior officials?"

This is He Bin’s biggest puzzle.

Judging from the conditions given by Zheng Zhilong, it was definitely not because of trade disputes or interests. Moreover, the Dutch did not make any provocations against the Zheng family in recent years. In the sixth year after the Luowan War, in the 12th year of Chongzhen (1639), the Dutch sent Lang Bizhirigo to lead nine warships to harass the Chinese coast and defeated the small fleet of the Ming Dynasty navy several times. However, in the end, Zheng Zhilong sent people to swim with bamboo tubes filled with gunpowder, burning five ships in a row. Lang Bizhirigo returned with a defeat. Until this time, the Ming Zheng fleet seized all the East Asian sea control rights from Japan to the South China Sea.

Now four years have passed, as far as He Bin knows, Batavia is no longer ready to attack the Zheng group.

So, what did Zheng Zhilong go crazy to completely drive the Dutch away from the senior officials?

"Old Seventeen, by the way, Brother Jiu won't hide it from you. There will be drastic changes in the Central Plains, and the Ming Dynasty is probably over."

He Bin's face also changed drastically. He didn't know much about the Central Plains and the North. Although he knew about bandits and the Qing Dynasty, he never thought that the Ming Dynasty, which was such an unshakable behemoth in his eyes, would be ineffective?

"The Ming Dynasty was not good in the Central Plains, but there was still a try in Jiangnan. If it was lost, Yanjing, wouldn't there be Jinling? Crossing the river and heading south, there was still room for galloping. It is true that the Tartar bandits were very powerful on the plains of the Central Plains in the north, but when they came to Jiangnan, what was they doing on the water?"

"In the future, there will be another north-south confrontation."

"In such a chaotic time, a great master is a hero of the world, so he naturally has to do something. But how can he do it without a stable retreat? He must drive away the Dutch from the top officials and take the entire top officials as himself. Only then can he advance, attack, retreat or defend?"

Shi Daxuan's words were half true and half false, but they were enough to make him evade He Bin in front of him.
