Strength and status are fought through war.It is only by flexing your muscles that you can let others know your strength.Otherwise, what is not available on the battlefield will not get at the negotiating table.

The war, which lasted only two days, severely damaged the Portuguese rulers of Goa.The Portuguese army lost seven or eight hundred people, the artillery was almost lost, the two armed merchant ships sank and fled, the religious system in the city collapsed, and the spiritual pillar was completely broken.

The Europeans in the city are currently talking about the "Orient" and changing color, and there are merchants and residents who are in series, and no one can come up with a suitable solution.Until Muhammad, an Arab merchant in the city, brought back news that the kings of the East had asked the merchants and residents of Goa to send representatives to the meeting, and how to do business better.

"He came to Goa by His Majesty the Emperor of China, who was a strong and decisive man, full of majesty and flexible.He told me directly that the war was about showing you his strength.What follows is the hope that you will serve him better, and His Majesty the Emperor has prepared enough wealth to reward those who have pledged allegiance to him."

In front of the Church of the Merciful Jesus, which collapsed in the fire, Muhammad shouted on the ruins: "Anyone can get wealth from His Majesty the Emperor through trade, and he hopes that you will be able to go boldly to his fortress and accept his feast."This is not a mandatory requirement, but only those who are willing to serve him can be protected by him.”

No less than two or three hundred people gathered in front of the ruins of the church, all of whom were trembling merchants and residents of Goa.Hearing Muhammad's message, someone immediately asked, "Since it is to trade, why must we use war to bring us to our knees?"

“Because His Majesty the Emperor feels that a war can sweep away a lot of trouble, the key is that he is strong enough not to be bound by the old system.”

This makes people angry and speaks unrighteously.Another asked, “What do we need to pay to be protected?”Will you go to the Emperor’s party?”

"The property of the Governor's House will be used as compensation to offset the military expenses of His Majesty the Emperor, who does not intend to deprive you of your wealth, and he does not even intend to collect your taxes.He knows that you have doubts, so he does not force you to be loyal to him immediately.He even let go of the prisoners in this war.”

Lord Mohammed beckoned, and Anthony, with a white face, was pushed up, “Look, Lord Costa’s nephew is alive.”He also followed me to see His Majesty the Emperor.He could testify that I did not lie.He was even treated, or his Majesty the Emperor himself.I want to say once again that His Majesty the Emperor is stronger than you can imagine.”

Anthony's spirit was weak, but he said a few words.The Portuguese below asked him questions, and the whole answer lasted for a whole day.Anthony concluded, “The tyrant asked you to go to the feast tomorrow night.”He said verbally that he would keep you safe, but I just relayed it and didn't know if it was true.Take care of yourself.”

Anthony’s decadence was like a living sign, telling Goa’s white men that their original privileges had now been completely gone.

On the fifth day of the appearance of the Eastern Fortress, Zhou Qingfeng sent Ewenrulan, He Zhuo, and two Phoenix leaders to the receiving team to goa.They brought in hundreds of militiamen and began to accept the industries and wealth that had been under the control of the Portuguese Indian governor.

After the defeat of the Portuguese army, there was a large-scale looting campaign in Goa.But most of the men and sailors in the city were caught, and Governor Codino had not yet led the team to flee.And when the Portuguese officials began to retreat, they could not take away the huge wealth they had accumulated over the past hundred years.

More importantly, Zhou Qingfeng also mastered a lot of leading the way party, and Father Marcelo is one of them.Before Governor Cordino fled, he had secretly returned to Goa to recruit the right people for his new owner, stabilize the situation, and facilitate Zhou Qingfeng's rule over Goa.

"Madam, this is the governor's office in Goa."Marcelo himself led the way and brought the Manulan to the center of Goa's rule.

Governor Codino led the way, but he failed to take away a large number of native slaves in the governor's house.These people have basically survived, just a new owner.Even the original governor's butler remained because of Marcelo's recruitment.

Wen Ruolan was not interested in the magnificent architecture and decoration, but the ice phoenix liked to slip around and play tricks on the slaves inside.The former demanded that the steward immediately transfer all the property in the name of the Portuguese Indian governorate, and severely warned the other party that if they dared to conceal it, they would be severely punished.

When Wen Ruolan said this, Jia Gang, who was hiding his body in the shadow in her in a cloak, was behind her.Others can ignore the words of Wen Ruolan, but they are extremely afraid of the skeleton who can walk freely in the sun.Under such deterrence, the harvest of Wenrulan is extremely rich.

Governor Codino hurried away, but took a lot of gold and silver.However, a large amount of precious metals were still hoarded in the cellar of the governor's house.Most of the silver was brought from Portugal to prepare for the Far East trade, and gold was constantly seized by indigenous Indians - the local king especially liked gold, which is also an important source of gold stocks.

When the door of the local cellar was opened to Wenroland, the Portuguese changed owners immediately after the hard work of the past 100 years.Seeing the gold bricks piled up, even the fire Feng who was used to the world said, “The bad boy has made a fortune.”Across thousands of miles, the expedition carried out by the poor soldiers and the army returned at once.”

After a simple count, just more than ten tons of silver is worth more than a few hundred thousand silver dollars, plus more than a ton of gold.A small half of the military expenses of this expedition were recovered.And this was only in stock of the governor's house, and then Mr. Wen Ruo'an also checked the property of the Catholic Church in Goa—the governor's office was a beggar compared to the church.

The war destroyed many churches in Goa, and priests and priests were able to take very little when they fled, and they were reluctant to destroy their religious buildings.So the wealth of the church was basically left behind—the power of religion to amass wealth was more than a hundred times stronger than the governor.

When the words of the magic of the Worran removed the ruins of the Church of Mercy Jesus, she saw directly a prayer room made of gold, which was used by successive archbishops of Goa.The prayer room alone used two or three tons of gold.

“Luxury, too extravagant.It's a lot of desire."Even if the whole church building has been burned down by fire, it can be seen from some decorations and objects that are preserved between the ruins and walls, and it can still be seen how the high-rises of these churches are like soil.

Archbishop Xavier died in his prayer room, physically transformed into a corpse.Fire Feng covered his nose and looked into the house that had been burned beyond recognition, and ordered the militiamen to come and clean up.There is also a silver coffin of the saint Shayoko, the whole coffin weighs more than a dozen tons, all poured with silver.

It's so rich.

This is only part of the church’s wealth.Relying on the payment and worship of the faithful, the church has more than ten times more wealth than the governor's office.Exactly how much, even the local Portuguese themselves do not know.But as long as we talk about the church, everyone knows that the clergy are particularly rich.

Xu Bing once said that the development of the "Revolutionary Army" was too rapid.Due to the lack of gold and silver, the issuance of currency is insufficient.Now with these gains from Goa, she must have been happy for a while."He is in charge of the inspection of the church.When a large number of gold and silver products were taken out and piled up in a carriage, she also felt that this trip to Goa was not white.

In addition to gold and silver, Zhou Qingfeng received a large amount of wealth this time.Most of the cities in Goa belong to the governor's house and the church, and a large amount of agricultural products piled up in the warehouse.

Limited by capacity, the colonists rarely transported low-priced goods such as agricultural products in the early days.It does not mean that they will not hoard, after all, controlling food is equivalent to controlling the population.Goa is a tropical monsoon climate, and the local rice production is not small.In addition, a large number of Indian cotton and earth cloth were shipped from here.

"I have initially seen that there are about 20 or 30 large granaries in the city, which are specially used to meet the food needs of tens of thousands of people here.The exact number is not good, but at least there are millions of stones.”The fire just looked at it casually, and it exploded a fairly high value.

This is just a rough sealing data for the morning, and the detailed figures will certainly be even greater.Even the most conservative estimate is that Zhou Qingfeng's direct wealth in Goa will not be less than 20 million silver dollars.

On the fifth day of the Eastern Fort, the hard-working flat hair flew back in a biplane.Several finance personnel from the Ministry of the Interior of the Revolutionary Army came from the biplane.According to Xu Bing's original words, if my man had not been able to get the fat sheep of Goa for five days, he would not deserve to sleep with her mother.

The financial staff who came naturally did not dare to repeat the original words, they only said that they had been ordered by the Minister of the Ministry of the Interior to accept the inventory, for the commander to solve the problem - Zhou Qingfeng was happy with this statement.He worked hard to fight, but the benefits were all Xu Bing.But he still let these accounts go to inventory and file, to ensure that the harvest of this Goa Raiders is not discounted.

After all, gold and silver wealth needs to be transformed by Xu Bing to become a real strength.

Receiving the property of the Portuguese governorate and the church was only the first step in Zhou Qingfeng's control of Goa, and he also sent people to promote recruitment outside the city.The local indigenous labor force cannot be wasted, and a large amount of food can be pulled.Although these people are extremely poor in quality and have a lot of problems, they can be whipped and beaten, and they can still be used for construction.

In addition, Zhou Qingfeng also needs more professionals, such as some local Portuguese have lived in Goa for several generations.Some of them are good at winemaking, some are familiar with the route, and some are skilled in hand, and these people can be used.As for the questions they are willing to be unwilling, they will certainly be happy when they are cornered.

The construction of the city of Goa is not very good, and the style is completely based on the dirty and messy of European cities.The hired indigenous people first had to clean up the ruins of war, build roads, repair sewers, and clean up municipal waste.

In this year, most of the European cities are garbage dumps, because the garbage has accumulated for hundreds of years, and it is even more to affect the extent of groundwater.Goa inherited the same problem.

Seeing the Orientals in Goa for receiving and cleaning up, the merchants and residents of the city were rested.This at least means that the emperor of the East was not intended to completely destroy this important commercial city, but that he really wanted to take advantage of the city, the population and commerce network of the city.

In this case, many people decided to go to the emperor's dinner.Let’s put aside first, the history and traditions of Europeans don’t care about that.
