New Ming Empire mixed in America

The inquiry into these two unimportant targets progressed very quickly. Although McGee-Birmingham emphasized that he was worth tens of thousands of pounds in ransom, it was a pity that Li Mingqi didn't care at all.

Tens of thousands of pounds?

How long does that take for the printing press to work?

Now the foreign trade of the Xinming Empire has almost banned the payment of bills in pounds sterling.

However, when purchasing, you still have to pay in pounds, but you have to go through a member of the Umbrella Youth League or the Lightning League.

Change the identity of this brand new pound sterling, such as deposit certificates issued by various colonies or certificates issued by banks in other countries.

As for the Xinming Empire, it has long stopped using the Xinming version of the pound.

The same goes for the U.S. dollar. The green banknotes issued by Mr. Lin are easier to copy than the British pound. If the Civil War is over now, Mr. Lin will probably find that the quantity of green banknotes issued by Mr. Lin after the war is at least more than

one third.

And basically all the extra green money was spent on the main body of Daiying.

Well... to be specific, these extra green banknotes were used to purchase various materials in Daiying, such as merchant ships, various raw materials, etc.

Anyway, the capitalists in Daiying very much recognized Lin's national debt. Even the weapons and gunpowder of the Northern Federation were mostly purchased from Daiying, so there was no obstacle to the circulation of green banknotes in Daiying.

Not to mention the pound sterling, which is used all over the world. Members of the Umbrella Youth League and the Lightning Group used merchant ships to transport brand-new pounds sterling and deposited large amounts in banks around the world.

Then I took the deposit certificate and returned to Daiying to buy various raw materials and so on. Who said that Daiying at this time was known as the world's factory.

Dai Ying gathered wool from the colonies, and Li Mingqi gathered Dai Ying's wool, thus forming a good supply and demand relationship.

They also help the UK to promote the pound for free. According to statistics compiled by the UK government, their pound has occupied most of the world's currency markets in the past two years.

At least one twentieth of the contribution came from the Xinming Empire.

Anyway, shipyards in various countries will receive some customized cargo ship business, which is settled in pounds sterling.

According to Jin Yiwei's statistics, this kind of business can be carried out for at least another year. Because it takes too long, it is inevitable that a large number of pounds of the same number will meet in the same country.

The tone of this attack on the Manila port was quickly set. After all, there were many ways to obtain daily necessities, but ammunition was a bit troublesome.

So I thought I could only get a foothold as soon as possible while I had enough ammunition.

Although Ryukyu is delicious, it now belongs to the territory of the puppet Qing Dynasty. Without the restraint of the Taiping Army, it is conceivable that the proposal to disband the Hunan Army, which had been shaved, has already been discussed in the puppet Qing court.

If Li Mingqi went to the territory of the Puppet Qing Dynasty to obtain a lease area at this time, the Puppet Qing court would definitely jump up and fight to the death.

The Hunan Army who once had his head shaved probably has another place to use.

The Xinming Empire is different from the foreigners. It can shrink from the foreigners' pseudo-Qing Dynasty, because everyone knows that what the foreigners want is money.

But the Xinming Empire was different. In the eyes of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, the Xinming Empire was a Han-dominated country.

If we don't risk our lives with the Xinming Empire, it is estimated that there will be a wave of anti-Qing rebellion in the country.

The troubles of the Taiping Army had just been suppressed, when the New Ming Empire jumped out to set a benchmark for all anti-Qing forces, and the consequences can be imagined.

One wants money, the other wants his life.

As long as all the officials in the Puppet Qing Dynasty don't have water in their heads, they will definitely fight against the Xinming Empire.

By that time, I believe that the British and other European countries would definitely be happy to see the New Ming Empire fall into the quagmire of the Puppet Qing Dynasty.

All kinds of aid will fall on the head of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty for free.

In the end, even if the Xinming Empire achieved final victory, it would probably take more than ten years.

Not to mention having to deal with various political issues within the Qing Dynasty. Just one academic issue could take the Xinming Empire more than ten years.

Not to mention the hindrance and counterattack of the gentry class. With the size of the New Ming Empire, even if it drove away the puppet Qing Dynasty and dominated China, it would still end up being assimilated.

Hundreds of thousands of people of the Xinming Empire were thrown into the hundreds of millions of people in China, and with the existence of various classes that held them back, it was impossible not to be assimilated.

By the time Li Mingqi has finished sorting out China's affairs, it is estimated that the war will be over.

It is better to stay overseas and develop your own power little by little, and take advantage of the Europeans to fight together. At the same time, intervene in the war between the Europeans and let them shed more blood.

At that time, the Xinming Empire will go back with hundreds of millions of people, and it won't take a minute to beat up the pseudo-Qing Dynasty?

Those academic lords, warlords, gentry and the like had their ashes raised.

Li Mingqi never thought about the peaceful unification of China. He was already ready to fight the entire territory of China again.

He doesn't have the patience to play politics with various forces in the country, and to be honest, he can't do it.

His only attitude is that all the beneficiaries of the pseudo-Qing rule must be liquidated, sorry.

The Confucian scholar-lords of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, the various warlords of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, and the various business families of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty.

These moth vampires must die!

Since we are going to cut it across the board, we should do it in a big way. No matter how ruthless it is, the life of the people will not be much worse.

Could it be more miserable than during the turmoil of the late Qing Dynasty?

Don't tell me whether more people will die if Li Mingqi does this.

As long as Li Mingqi fights fast enough, only the original ruling class will die.

If these people die more, Li Mingqi will not have any psychological burden.

In this general environment, these guys can live freely and freely. Li Mingqi doesn't believe it if they don't step on the bones of the lower class people.

Moreover, Li Mingqi would not be so crazy as to kill all the gentlemen who were doing small business or teaching. He was targeting the big families.

But if these people were deceived into going against the Xinming Empire during this period, then Li Mingqi would not be lenient.

He still knows the difference between crying as a family and crying together.

"Long live my lord, go to bed early. We will arrive at the Manila port this afternoon."

At around three o'clock in the morning, Liu Erhe finally couldn't help but start to persuade Li Mingqi to rest.

Li Mingqi, who had been thinking all night, rubbed his eyes, looked at the various plans he had recorded on the table, and sighed.

There is not much use in thinking about this now, as the world is changing day by day.

Maybe there will be a better way to deal with the false Qing Dynasty by then.

Now that the Xinming Empire can protect its own interests, it's already good. Let's focus on the Pacific Ocean.

While the great powers have not set their sights on the Pacific yet, it is most important for the Xinming Empire to seize the opportunity to establish its identity as the hegemon of the Pacific.

By the time other countries take a closer look, the Xinming Empire will probably have established a solid power in the Pacific.

After studying for a few more hours, Li Mingqi returned to his room to rest.

While Li Mingqi was sleeping all night over the next development of the Xinming Empire, Governor Birmingham of Manila was also a little unable to sleep.

The large city of Manila is in a mess as far as the eye can see, with ruins caused by the earthquake everywhere.

The renovation work of the Governor's Palace and the Cathedral has not yet been completed, and the clean-up work in the city is continuing.

What troubled him was not the indigenous corpses buried in the ruins that had not yet been cleared up.

It was the European businessmen blocking the Provisional Governor's Palace.

These guys in gorgeous clothes are much more difficult to deal with than the civilians lying in the ruins.
