NOVEL NEXT Chapter 56
Chapter 55: The Slave Trade Begins (Second)
The war was soon over.
Thousands of pirates, in addition to capturing more than a hundred people, were all buried in the sea, and the fate of these more than a hundred people will not be much better after all. Next, they will be sent to the mines. I’m afraid they can only spend it in the mines.
And with this attack.
Zhu Bo couldn’t help but be more vigilant.
The first thing that needs to be done is the establishment of the fortress.
Originally, in his thoughts, he waited until after entering the age of empires, and then started construction, and then the fort could be built directly.
But if you want to enter the Age of Empires, you can’t reach it by 100,000 people.
More than half a million people are needed.
A full tenfold difference.
In this case, it is impossible to gather such a large population in a short period of time.
Just build the fortress first.
More importantly, in this day and age, Zhu Bo found that the fortress was actually enough.
The huge rain of arrows is enough to shoot all incoming enemies into a hornet’s nest.
Construction started soon.
Stone is further consumed.
Zhu Bo suddenly discovered that the fastest consumption was not gold, but stone.
No way, he can only further mine the stone.
And time is passing by inadvertently.
in the next time.
every ten days.
The island country will send some slaves over there.
In less than a month, the number of slaves in Sanya Bay has exceeded 10,000 and approached 20,000.
This is undoubtedly a terrifying value.
After all, the entire Sanya Bay today is only close to 200,000 people, which means that almost two people have one slave.
There will definitely be problems in this way.
That’s why Zhu Bo hesitated for a moment before heading towards Guangzhou Port with a boat of slaves.
Originally in his plan, the slave trade was going to be slowed down again.
But now it seems that there is no way to slow down.
It can be expected that the number of slaves provided by the island country will only increase. At that time, he will not be able to consume so much.
Only dumped to the mainland.
Correspondingly cheap slaves, the mainland will probably be very happy.
As for what to exchange for.
No doubt there can be many.
The big ship is moving.
A few days later, we arrived in Guangzhou.
Then the mighty slave trade began.
History has turned a complete inflection point at this moment.
in the original trajectory.
The real large-scale slave trade was only caused by waiting for the advent of the Age of Navigation.
But now, with Zhu Bo joining, hundreds of years ago, the slave trade has begun to rise.
in the port.
One by one, the figures with their hands and feet bound were pulled down.
It instantly attracted the attention of countless people.
Even the officials of the Guangzhou government were instantly alarmed.
Although human trafficking has always existed, in ancient times there was still a profession of tooth people.
But the key thing can only be done secretly. Now that it is carried out so blatantly, even the officials of the Guangzhou government feel terrified.
In a short time, he came with a catcher.
It was just that when they came over, they were instantly stunned.
Especially when they saw Zhu Bo, they only felt that their heads suddenly became bigger.
“His Royal Highness, human trafficking is a serious crime!”
Wen Jiuquan couldn’t help but speak.
“This king knows!”
“Don’t be nervous, these are not my people of Ming Dynasty, just some barbarians.”
Zhu Bo opened his mouth with a smile.
And his words made Wen Jiuquan stunned for a while.
“Not the people of Ming Dynasty?”
Looking a little surprised.
“Yes, these are Japanese pirates who have invaded our seas and territories all the year round. Now they have been captured by this king. Of course, they need to be forgiven for their crimes. This king has demoted them to slaves. What do you think of the government!”
Zhu Bo opened his mouth with a smile.
Since he was going to start the slave trade, he naturally thought of a reason.
But for the great scholar-officials, all that is needed is a reason.
“Japanese pirates!”
“This is a Japanese pirate!”
Wen Jiuquan was stunned, and then his eyes couldn’t help but bring a fierce light.
As the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture, Wen Jiuquan was also deeply victimized by Japanese pirates.
“Like a fake replacement!”
“Lord Prefect, just report to the court according to the facts, no need to worry!”
Zhu Bo nodded again.
“The subordinate understands!”
“Then you won’t bother me anymore.”
Wen Jiuquan nodded, the fierce light filled the air, and then ignored it.
Since he is not a citizen of Daming, what does it have to do with him.
Even if there is a problem, it is Zhu Bo’s responsibility.
Wen Jiuquan left, and Zhu Kuai also left quickly.
And this result suddenly made many people’s eyes light up.
In the port, someone soon came to inquire.
Fortunately, Zhu Bo brought someone here.
You don’t have to go out in person.
Otherwise, even if there is no problem, there will be a problem.
And the people who asked, heard the price of slaves, and even became livestock, many people suddenly became more thoughtful.
Soon someone chose to buy.
And with the first person who buys, there will undoubtedly be a second and a third.
For a while, the port seemed to be lively.
Some tooth man agencies want to make trouble.
But looking at the standing soldiers of Zhu Bo, they had to give up their thoughts.
This time Zhu Bo brought a total of 4,000 people.
I was going to sell it for a few days.
But in less than three days, 4,000 slaves were robbed.
The silver tael in his hand also increased by nearly ten thousand taels at this moment.
During this Hongwu period, the income of nearly 10,000 liang can be said to have been distributed in an instant.
Of course, it was useless for him to take the money, and soon, he turned it into the cost of purchasing, and even the cost of immigration.
When he returned, there were already more than 1,000 Ming people on board.
There are also many books.
Although it seems that more than 4,000 people exchanged for more than 1,000 people, it is a bit of a loss.
But one is a Japanese, and the other is a citizen of the Ming Dynasty. This nature can be said to be completely different.
