When the British Blake and Worster lamented that this rich land in the southwest corner of the Southern Continent was about to fall into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, they even wanted to use the method of spreading Puritanism and republican ideas to "make trouble" for the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, they may not have thought that for the Ming Dynasty, which had been upgraded to a world empire, the southwest corner of the southern continent was definitely not considered rich. It was just a moderately wealthy colony.

The real "Land of the Tuhao" is, of course, the "United States of the Tuhao" belonging to Zhu Cixi's eldest son, the Tuhao King. However, at this time, the streets of Washington, the capital of the Tuhao Kingdom, did not look luxurious or extravagant at all, but instead seemed particularly simple and unpretentious.

.

Washington is not large in area. It is located on a peninsula that is only sixteen or seventeen miles wide at its widest. The urban area does not occupy the entire peninsula. It only occupies the western part of the peninsula near the bay. And there are not many blocks, but most streets.

It is open and straight, but there are not many houses on both sides of the street, there are many open spaces, and only a small part of the street is lively.

The head of the peninsula is very pointed. When viewed from a high altitude, it looks like a pointed hat, so it is also called the Hat Peninsula. To the west of the Hat Peninsula is a bay about seven miles wide, called Port Bay. As the name suggests, it is the bay where the port is located. Port

The port in the Bay is now the largest port in the United States of New Zealand!

The largest port in the United States is actually not that big. It has a ten-mile-long dock and berth area along the west coast of the Hat Peninsula. Although there are many docks and berths, most of them are deserted.

The pier and its surrounding areas are the most lively places in Washington, D.C., and the most prosperous places in the entire United States.

Of course, the prosperity here is relative to other places in the United States. If it were placed in the Ming Dynasty itself, it would be almost the size of a medium-sized city.

Before the opening of the Golden Gate Port in California and the Shanhai Port in the United States (so named because of its proximity to the mountains and the sea), Washington's port bay was once the first stop for immigrants from the Ming Dynasty to land in New Zealand... It really has an extraordinary history.

What a meaning!

The local tyrant king Zhu Hehao also landed at the port bay in the late autumn of the 21st year of Hongxing's reign in the Ming Dynasty, almost three months after he left the Ming Dynasty - it certainly didn't take three months to cross the Pacific, but he was in Japan

I stayed in Tokyo for almost a month, during which time I held a grand wedding with Xu Jingzi, the daughter of King Xu Guangguo of Japan. After the wedding, I recruited a bunch of retainers who seemed to be quite capable, and a group of maids who were enough to form a "big Austrian".

Only then did I leave Japan with great satisfaction...

Because there were too many people accompanying him, the first problem faced by the wealthy king who arrived in Washington was actually the housing problem.

The wealthy king actually lacks a house to live in - and this is in a wealthy country where he owns 30% of the shares.

Of course, the wealthy king himself would not sleep on the street, but his 300 female guards and Japan's "Big Olympic Troupe" had no place to stay. They had to temporarily stay around a large white house where the wealthy king lived, which looked very simple from the outside.

Many cabins were built.

The wealthy king's "white house" is located in the middle of the Hat Peninsula - actually close to the edge of Washington City. The surrounding area is empty and cold, but there is enough space to build a cabin.

The reason why the "White House" is white is because it uses a white granite stone produced in the Big Stone Mountains as a building material. The handicraft industry here in the United States of New Zealand is underdeveloped and cannot produce fuel and paint, so the exterior walls of the building are

It is the true color of the raw material. It is either the color of red bricks, the color of logs, or the color of white stone with a little bit of variegated color. This stone is called white granite and is produced in Washington City.

From the nearby Stone Mountains (Rocky Mountains), it was very expensive to transport it to Washington by waterway. Only wealthy kings could afford the cost of building a two-story "white house" with twelve bays.

Because of this expensive white house, Zhu Hehao's palace was also called Baiwangfu. Looking out from the window of the study on the second floor of Baiwangfu, Zhu Hehao could also see a red brick wall and a Western-style door.

There is a Japanese-style iron gate gate. There is a group of red-coated female soldiers standing guard at the gate, carrying flintlock rifles. They stand upright and still, which is very eye-catching!

Letting female guards stand guard was not because the wealthy king had no male soldiers at hand - there were four battalions with a total of 2,000 "Old Guards" who followed him to the United States of New Zealand. In addition, more than 500 Japanese retainers also followed him

He came to the United States and formed the "Local Knights".

In addition, there are a large number of Shaanxi military households from Sichuan, who are constantly arriving in Pacific sailing ships... Therefore, the local tyrant king has the strength to gather a large number of men carrying guns.

But after understanding the national conditions of the United States of New Zealand, the local tyrant king felt that neither the Old Guard nor the Samurai Order were enough to demonstrate his strength.

It turns out that here in the United States of New Zealand, the most indispensable thing is men who can carry guns. Because of the continuous expansion of the United States and the rise of the fur fever and gold rush, the conflicts between the Indians in the stone mountains of immigrants from East Asia have intensified, and it is difficult to

reconcile!

Moreover, the Indian tribes at Stone Mountain also received muskets "aided" by New France, posing an increasing threat to the East Asian immigrants in the United States of New Zealand.

So now everyone in Xinzhou has a gun - in fact, muskets are the largest commodity exported from the Ming Dynasty to the United States of Xinzhou!

In the United States, there are men carrying guns everywhere, but there are not enough girls carrying guns to form families with them... In the early days of the United States of New Zealand, when there were few people in the United States, girls could be "introduced" from Japan.

Marriage. But now the population of the United States of New Zealand is hundreds of thousands, of which men account for nearly 67%, and the gap of women is as much as 200,000. Where can we buy so many Japanese girls? And with the Kingdom of Japan

Riding on the Chinese Empire, many Japanese have gone to Southeast Asia in recent years. Many "non-eldest men" who were originally unable to marry and have children are now

Therefore, here in Xinzhou, it is not unusual to have 2,500 men who can carry guns. But to have 600 young and beautiful East Asian girls who can carry guns...that is the real rich king!

Therefore, outside Prince Bai's Mansion, there are always many men with muskets stuck in their waists and big gold chains hanging around their necks. They look eagerly at the girl standing there with her chest puffed out and her belly drawn up, almost drooling...

After watching for a while, someone wiped their saliva and started to listen.

"Where did they come from? They are so beautiful!"

"You are still carrying a gun, you are a heroic woman!"

"Standing for hours without moving... How long does it take to practice this?"

"Look at those breasts, they are so tall! Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Some thick-skinned men came up to him and began to fight through the iron gate.

"This female officer and soldier, let me ask, where are you from?"

"Well, I'm from Shizhu, Sichuan!"

The person who answered this shameless man was Du Mulan's sister Du Mu Mian. Her sister is now Zhu Hehao's woman and no longer serves as a female bodyguard, so she fills the gap - Zhu Hehao's female bodyguards and Da'ao

The number of people in the group is fixed, each group is 300 people. When one person leaves, one person will be added.

"Sichuan? Isn't it occupied by rogue bandits?"

When he heard "rogue bandit", Du Mu Mian frowned slightly and felt a little unhappy - he was obviously a superior soldier, so why did he become a bandit?

"Sichuan has been recovered!" Someone answered for Du Mu Mian, who was also a gold digger with a big gold chain around his neck. In the past few years, shallow buried gold deposits have been discovered in the four states of the United States of America, China, Poland, and Canada.

of gold, thus setting off waves of gold mining craze. Of course, most gold diggers want to break their dreams of the New World, but a few people have made a fortune.

These gold diggers hanging around Washington DC with gold chains are owners who have already made a lot of small fortunes before their big fortunes have arrived... When you have some money, of course you will miss your wife.

But I don’t want to go back to my country to marry a wife—not to mention how much it costs to go back, it’s a waste of time, a waste of time digging for gold!

And if you have to ask someone to "bring" a wife to the New World, it costs a lot of money, and it's easy to be cheated... You may end up spending a sky-high price to marry an ugly daughter-in-law, which will be a huge loss.
