As soon as Liu Yu said something, the Dongpu messenger in the lobby was shocked.

They came to Luzon under the orders of Chen Shangchuan of Dongpu.

The reason why Chen Shangchuan in Dongpu contacted the Luzon Ming court was largely to test the strength of the Luzon Ming court.

The Ming people who fled to Annan did not establish themselves, but forced a piece of land from Zhenla under the influence of Guangnan.

To put it bluntly, the Ming people in Annan were actually just relying on Guangnan.

Although the number of Ming people in Annan was far greater than that of Ming people in Luzon, Chen Shangchuan had only a few thousand troops.

The number of troops is roughly comparable to that of the Luzon Ming Army Army.

But the problem is that the Ming court of Luzon defeated the Spaniards with its own strength, forcibly captured the northern part of Luzon's northern island, and strongly suppressed the Tumen in Luzon. Only the Spaniards' reinforcements were less than a day, so the Ming court could rest assured and even planned to counterattack Taiwan Island.

The Ming people in Annan could only succumb to Guangnan's strength, and the surrounding forces such as Zhenla were also eyeing the Ming people in Annan.

Chen Shangchuan and several other Ming leaders did not guarantee whether the land under his feet would be taken back by Zhen La one day, or even directly annexed by the powerful Lord Ruan.

Therefore, Chen Shangchuan and other Ming leaders in Annan decided to form an alliance with the Luzon Ming court.

I hope to use the power of the Luzon Ming court to ensure the survival of the Annanming people.

However, Chen Shangchuan, who has become the local emperor in Dongpu and other places, will never agree, including several Ming leaders stationed in other areas.

After all, everyone has selfish intentions. In addition, the reason why the Annan Ming people can survive in this land is because of Nguyen Phuket's power schemes. Nguyen Phuket hopes to suppress forces such as Zhen La through these Ming people, which is a strategy to swallow wolves and drive away tigers.

Ming leaders such as Chen Shangchuan also surrendered to Nguyen Phuc, and to some extent, they were also ministers of Nguyen Phuc, but they only had a high degree of autonomy.

The purpose of coming to Luzon to contact the Ming court was to increase the bargaining chips against Ruan Phuc by contacting the Ming court of Luzon, but this does not mean that Chen Shangchuan, Yang Yandi and others want to be loyal to Liu Yu.

So after testing the old man's reaction, Liu Yu followed the flow and gave Chen Shangchuan what he wanted.

These firearms, silver, are actually meeting gifts, representing the support of the Ming Dynasty in Luzon to support the Ming people such as Chen Shangchuan to become independent in Dongpu and other places, and to lead the Ming people to survive in Annan.

The Dongpu merchants present showed joy, and the assistance from the Luzon Ming court was indeed timely rain.

The Ming people in Dongpu lacked weapons, especially firearms. As an old general of the Ming Yongli, Chen Shangchuan, born in the Zheng Group, Yang Yandi naturally knew the power of firearms, especially when dealing with local Tufan forces such as Zhenla, the importance of firearms and other weapons.

However, when they led 3,000 people and fifty warships to Nguyen Phuc, Nguyen Phuc just laid a piece of land for them on the territory of Zhen La. After taking the land, everything was done by Ming people themselves. From reclaiming deserted fields to building houses, from villages to towns, almost everything started from blanks. It was impossible for a firearm workshop to produce firearms. Even the muskets and cannons brought with the ship were damaged due to disrepair, and Nguyen Phuc was even more impossible for them to give them these things.

So the gift given by Liu Yu is not light.

The old man obviously didn't expect Liu Yu to be so generous, so he bowed gently to Liu Yu.

"The people of Annanming will never forget the kindness of the great man."

"After returning, I told Chen Shangchuan that Yang Yandi and others asked them to develop Dongpu and other places to protect the Ming people. The Sihai Chamber of Commerce will also carry out trade with Annan. Nguyen Phuc is also a wise master. We will never forget the kindness of protecting the Ming people." Liu Yu could only try his best to appease the leaders of Annan and other Ming people. After all, he did not have the ability to send the Ming army to Annan to fight. Guangnan's army is not comparable to those of Luzon's life.

All Liu Yu could do was to let it go, because according to historical development, it was already in the early 18th century that Nguyen Phuc had taken over Dongpu, and it was a few years later that Yang Yandi was killed.

"If the Ming people in Annan were willing to come to Luzon, the Ming court was willing to distribute land, ploughing tools, etc., the merchants could also come to Lavague to do business."

The Ming court also had a lot of land and Luzon's arable land. Although most of it was in the hands of local local zodiacs, the Ming army still took a lot of land from local Spanish merchants through forced buying and selling and selling.

If Liu Yu could move the Ming people from Annan to Luzon and enrich the population of the Han people in Luzon, Liu Yu would be quite happy. After all, there are many idle people in the Ming court now?

The Sihai Chamber of Commerce, Yamen, Navy, and Lu Zhen all wanted to break people in half to call them.

Soon, the envoys from Dongpu were arranged by Liu Yu. Many of these people were Chinese businessmen in Annan. After all, only Chinese businessmen in Nanyang could have the conditions to come to Luzon from Annan.

These merchants came to Luzon and were naturally doing business. Annan has many specialties, and local minerals, cotton cloth, etc. can also be sold well in Luzon.

The Sihai Chamber of Commerce is naturally happy to do business with the Ming merchants in Annan. After all, they are all Ming people and want to open up the trade in Annan through the Ming merchants in Annan now.

Just as the Ming court arranged for the envoy to stay in the restaurant, an old man slowly walked out of the restaurant. He looked at the brightly lit pier not far away with his face, and then slowly walked towards the street next to him.

Late at night, Liu Yu was flipping through books left by the Spanish Governor in his bedroom.

Since the Ming army took down Lavag, Governor Lavag's residence has also become Liu Yu's private residence.

These Spanish nobles all like to store books. Sir Brent did not take away much before leaving. After all, his property was basically recorded in the name of the Spanish government, so he was naturally detained by the Ming army. Brent, who was ashamed, naturally did not take away these books.

I have to say that Brent has a wide range of knowledge, including European books on astronomy, geography and even military, and many of them are military and cultural works from Europe in this century.

Although Liu Yu does not understand Spanish, Wuda can do it. On weekdays, he will ask Wuda to help him translate these books, and occasionally learn a sentence or two of Spanish.

"Sir, the messenger of Dongpu is asking for a visit."

"Oh, the old man from Dongpu." Liu Yu was a little surprised and put down a European sailing book in his hand.

"Let him wait in the hall." Liu Yu's face was solemn. He vaguely felt that the old Dongpu messenger today was very unusual.

After simply tidying up his clothes, Liu Yu came to the hall, and the old man was sitting on the sofa waiting for Liu Yu quietly.

The origin of sofas can be traced back to ancient Egypt around 2000 BC, but the true soft-pack sofas appeared from the late sixteenth to the early seventeenth century.

At that time, the sofas were mainly made of natural elastic materials such as horse hair, bird feathers, and plant down as fillers. The outside was covered with velvet, embroidery and other fabrics to form a soft human contact surface.
