Chapter 540:This is a War

Baikov was finally disappointed and returned...

Because he refused to bow down, he was not summoned by His Majesty the Queen, and in short, the formal diplomacy between Russia and Daming ended as if it had never happened.

Baikov took his attendants on a journey, so that they did not return empty-handed, although they came to the festival, but in fact they were part-time merchants.The tsar gave them fifty thousand roubles, and at this time one silver rouble was roughly equivalent to one or two silver coins, so they went back after their frantic purchases.However, Daming gave them enough courtesy, such as Her Majesty the Queen's decree to Dzungar Khan, and ordered the latter to escort the Russian emissaries back to Tyumen, in case the half-way of these full-bodied fellows were robbed by the Dzungar Ministry.This year is not only dangerous to do business, but also when diplomatic envoys are also very dangerous, especially as they have crossed tens of thousands of miles by land.

When the Baikov mission returned with a map of the world given by the Empress Ming, their neighbors also arrived at Daming.

The Swedes.

The Swedish merchant ship Gothenburg arrives in Guangzhou.

The same merchant ship, which used the same name eighty years later, also brought the emissary of the Queen of Sweden, who was delivered to Nandu in Guangzhou from the Daming Navy's communications ship.

He was then summoned by Her Majesty the Queen.

And get the grace, they do not have to kneel when they meet His Majesty the Queen, in fact, they did not need to, are trying to open up the overseas market of Yang Qing, will not be too strict on this small problem.The emissaries of these countries do not need to bow down to the Queen, in fact, he occasionally invites these people to the palace, he has to kneel down only because, as Baikov himself said, he is discrimination against others.

The Swedes cannot discriminate.

On the contrary, at this time, the Nordics is still an ally that needs to be drawn, and the reason is of course to attack Russia, Queen Christina is about to abdicate, so that she can be counted as the cousin Karl X of the young horse, who and his children and grandchildren will continue to expand in Sweden.His grandson was Peter I's mitum, the Swedish little lion, and finally fifty years later, the defeat of the Great Northern War, allowed Sweden to completely withdraw from the stage of continental hegemony.But now that they are still in an ambitious period of expansion, that the territory of Sweden has not yet been established in St. Petersburg, and that antagonism with the Russians is inevitable, so they will be the best partners on the other side of Russia.

After knowing that Sweden was also under the reign of the female, Her Majesty the Empress of Daming even gave some of her private gifts, such as cosmetics, and the Da Ming perfume industry was also very prosperous.

As for trade, there is no need to say.

In addition, Da Ming is also very generous to Sweden to make concessions, to be precise, Da Ming to tariff relief, to encourage Swedish merchant ships to pay for the purchase of goods in Daming with copper...

They produce 70 percent of Europe’s copper.

** The high-quality copper mine of the Great Copper Mountain supports Sweden's external expansion, which is the reason why Northern Europe has inexplicably come out to dominate Europe in this era, which is equivalent to the European coinage machine, and the same Spanish silver hegemony in the same period.Copper is also Yang Qing most wanted, so that Swedes can use their most readily available copper to buy goods to Europe in exchange for the gold and silver they most want.And gold and silver is now not the most important thing for Daming, there is no shortage of gold and silver, as paper money becomes more and more popular, metal currency is gradually becoming a deposit in the bank warehouse.But Daming lacks copper, because with the planting of rubber trees about to start, Yang Qing can already use electricity, first of all, cable telegraph in the next ten years of planning, that is to say, the future demand for copper will increase dramatically.

The world must be filled with copper.

In short, the Swedes received a very different kind of preferential treatment in the Ming Ming.

“That’s it for the time being!”

Yang Qing sighed.

In this era, Europe can go to sea trade countries in fact, these are also these, basically all the arrival, two teeth, Anglo-Dutch-Fadam, Russia on land, as for the German system countries just ended 30 years of bloodthirting, southern European countries do not have the qualifications to go to sea, the Spaniards will not let them go out of Gibraltar casually.Moreover, the navigable countries of southern Europe also wandered around the Mediterranean, with no ability to fight the ocean, and the Venetians were still entangled with the Ottoman navy, and in fact they had to be entangled for a long time.

As for the Indian Ocean countries that had been expelled from the sea trade, except for the Omans' activities on the coast of East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, the other Ottomans and Persians, even the Mughal Empire, had no capacity for maritime trade.

They didn't think it was useful.

Neither the British Dutch nor Daming’s Nanyang will allow competitors to appear again.

“So it seems that maritime trade really cannot support the economy.”

The Queen said.

“The significance of maritime trade is simply to supplement the amount of our currency, to sustain the prosperity of the country through domestic demand, even if we order the closure of the country now, with sufficient domestic demand, can still ensure economic prosperity.”Even the lack of money is nothing at all, Taizu years rely only on treasure bills to maintain the economy, but the biggest fear of domestic demand is the serious imbalance of wealth, when the wealth is all concentrated in a very small number of people, and the vast majority of people are in extreme poverty when talking about domestic demand is a joke.Only when all have idle money in their hands can a truly strong internal market be formed, and all this is based on the first-ever average land, which is the basis for the formation of a domestic market.”

Yang Qing said.

This is also the basis of the modern domestic demand market.

Why India also has a large population but fail to achieve China’s achievements is that their land system limits the formation of a strong domestic demand market, and people who can’t eat enough to eat have the purchasing power.

The export-oriented economy...

The export-oriented economy is still based on domestic demand, and unless a small country such as Singapore, there must be a domestic demand market before there can be an export-oriented economy.

The premise of the domestic market is still a land reform.

What is the basis for South Korea’s success in building an export-oriented economy?It is because since 48 years, South Korea has carried out land reform, and the land reform under the banner of liquidation has finally increased the proportion of farmers in South Korea from 30% to nearly 90%.

Why did Japan succeed?

Because after the war, Japan also carried out agrarian reform under the leadership of the United States, the government forcibly acquired the land of the landowners and then sold it to the sharecrops, as for the acquisition method, like Yang Qing, it was similar to the land vouchers of the national debt, and the sale to the sharecrooge was to let the latter use the state loan.But when these reforms were completed, Japan frantically printed money in the 50s, artificially created so much inflation that farmers could repay their loans with only thirteen packs of cigarettes, and in this way they would also complete the agrarian reform.

No need to say anything about the Bay.

The consequences of the non-reform are the wonders of Mexico.

Of course, there are special ones too.

For example, it is not good to be in the black uncle.

“Let’s see if the owners will listen to you honestly.”

The Queen said.

“Do they dare not listen?”

Yang Qing said, “They are vegetarians when the sabres in the hands of these old bandits are vegetarians!”

At this time, Chen Yang, Texas.

“This place is good!”

Liu Fu, the second team leader of the Qingdi Department of the Land Reform Department of Daming Land, sat on horseback and talking to admire the spring on both sides, as a Guanzhong person looking at the green mountains and waters in the south, his mood is still very comfortable.He is to supplement the Hebei soil reform staff shortage, from Guanzhong's promotion, after all, Yang Qing's agrarian reform team was originally responsible for the scope of up to one or two provinces, the entire north of the agrarian reform can not cope with.During this period, not only from the middle of the transfer, but also the promotion of the north of the local also raised a lot, and finally let Yang Qing have enough cadres to carry out agrarian reform in the whole South.

The first step in the conversion is cleanup.

Although it had been carried out before, it was impossible to change these years, and it was not possible at the time, and it was also impossible to conceal it, and it was now necessary to re-criereve, and at the same time, a comprehensive and detailed registration of the occupation of the population, including the type of crops.

This includes mapping.

Each village must draw a detailed map.

“It’s good to look in the balloon!”

A young man next to him smiled.

This is a surveyor, also a graduate of the Kunxing College in the Imperial City, belonging to the Tianzimen, the descendants of the fallen officers, and in Kunxing College is studying mapping, he is followed by a carriage, the car is loaded with a small hot air balloon and various drawing tools.Yang Qing certainly can not equip them with so many high-end instruments, these people's mapping is just a lift to draw a map of the field of view, and then splicing the map ...

The error is certainly small.

But in this era, such a map can be hung.

Every village, every stream, even every mountain, every forest, including some isolated houses in the mountains, is drawn on such a map, which is the level of secret archives of the Ministry of Land.

“Don’t sit still, I’ll be soft when I get to heaven!”

Liu Fu said.

He is obviously afraid of heights.

In his vision, a little Mars flashed in the green...

“The enemy attack!”

He screamed without hesitation to jump to the horse.

The inexperienced surveyor looked at him with amazement, followed by a splash of blood on his shoulder, falling under the impact of a bullet, and the whole team of the cedulator and the escort of the militia was in chaos, and everyone was looking for concealment as soon as possible.Almost at the same time more Mars flashed, white smoke rose a little in the green mountains, bullets whistling constantly falling in the crowd, and the two clean-up crews were immediately shot.

“Hold on, don’t lie down!”

Liu Fu shouted.

Then he raised his short gun and aimed a swinging figure in the mountain forest to pull the trigger.

The latter fell down.

Other Qing team members have taken off the back of the gun shot back, but their opponents are obviously also a flapping gun, they are hidden in the woods, constantly shooting bullets out.

"Ma, Laozi thought that the landowners of Jiangnan could be honest, and they did not expect a virtue in the north and the south!"

Liu Fu scolded while playing.

Obviously, this kind of thing has been experienced for him many times, including many of his old players who have also been obviously tested for a long time, hiding behind trees or rocks, and calmly loaded and targeted fire.Only the newcomers who had just joined and the militia who had not experienced the fighting were somewhat flustered, but several veterans of the militia were equally calm and reprimanding their subordinates while shooting.

Liu Fu immediately fired a second shot.

Then he rushed to the side of the surveyor who fell to the ground as quickly as possible, and after a comatose guy dragged to the tree, at the same time a bullet fell at his feet, and the broken gravel hit the mapper's face, and the unlucky child, who had just graduated this year, woke up immediately, and then issued a scream...

“What’s your name, just a little hurt!”

Liu Fu shouted.

The surveyor was so scared that he shut up.

Liu Fu took out the first aid kit, quickly sprinkled the wound on his shoulder, and threw the bandage at him.

“Captain, these dog stuff wired rifles!”

A team member shouted.

Then another team member was shot.

Liu Fu looked across, the chaotic shooting is indeed a precise musket, in the constant targeting of his old team members, the vast majority of the shooting is actually to contain them, to this line of rifles loaded bullets to buy time.However, the attacker's wired rifle is not a rare thing, this kind of thing with those barrel quality smoothbore guns can be changed, hand pulled a few simple rifles is not difficult.

But at this point, he can already determine the number of enemies...

“Go to the knife!”

He yelled.

Then he pulled out his knife.

Those old players and the veterans in the militia quickly pulled out the bayonets and loaded them, and the newcomers looked at each other in panic, and it was obvious that they were not very suitable for such things, after all, as civilian clearances, they really did not think that they had to charge the same slapstick as on the battlefield.

"The old team members in the former new team, do not have soft legs, go out and give my cat to run around!"

Liu Fu shouted.

Immediately he looked across the other side, a new round of bullets across the face.

“Run!”

He screamed.

With the knife in his hand pointing forward, he rushed to the woods at full speed, and the old team members behind him shouted with the spear with the bayonet, and the new people infected by it were hot, and they rushed up with guns.

However ...

The enemy quickly retreated.

These guys were obviously familiar with the environment, and when they rushed over, only a few dead bodies were left, and even the original injured were cut off by their companions when they left, lying dying in the woods.Liu Fu picked out the head of the bag on their heads with a knife, revealing the moon head that the abstinent must keep.

“Fake, feet are different!”

A member of the team looked at the attacker’s feet and said.

“That’s the trouble!”

Liu Fu frowned and said.

"Immediately go to Guangde to report, and apply for the transfer of the army to clear, whether it is a slave is not important, the important thing is that someone dares to fight by force!"

He said immediately.
