Chapter 822： Global layout

In October, a mixed fleet of Chinese military and merchants arrived in the Persian Gulf.

Earlier, Dahua and the Persian Empire negotiated a deal for the sale of territory. Dahua spent one million taels of silver to purchase Bahrain from the Persian Empire.

This is a controversial business. The Navy firmly opposes it, but the civilian officials strongly support it.

In military terms, if Bahrain is needed, they can go and fight directly. Can they afford to buy it?

However, some of the civil servants stepped forward and used an abacus to calculate in the court, and found that the military cost far more than one million to smash Bahrain.

Moreover, they will be at odds with the Persian Empire.

Dahua is certainly not afraid of the Persian Empire, but now Dahua has no plans to regain Persia, so there is no need to offend it in advance.

Too many enemies is not a good thing.

Therefore, what the civil servants meant was to just spend money to buy Bahrain.

Anyway, the Persian Empire also agrees with this business, and both parties are very happy.

After some argument, the civil servant won, and Wu Changqing approved the purchase of this plan.

Ever since, Dahua bought the small place in Bahrain from the Persian Empire.

Dahua bought this place because of its oil resources.

Dahua also has a lot of local oil, and it will definitely not be used up.

But the problem is that the oil on Dahua's mainland is hidden deep underground, making it difficult to extract.

In contrast, oil in the Middle East is very easy to extract, and in some places, even a well can be dug out.

Therefore, Dahua would rather go to Bahrain for mining and then transport it back to China when the technology is not yet developed.

Although it is a bit troublesome, at least there is no technical bottleneck and it can be achieved.

Wu Changqing is bound to win the oil in the Middle East.

Therefore, there is no harm in going to the layout in advance, so I agreed to this plan.

For the Persian Empire, selling territory is more or less less glorious.

If the Ottoman Empire made this request to them, they would definitely refuse it without hesitation.

But, who makes the buyer Dahua?

For the extremely powerful and prosperous Great China Empire, the Persian Empire chose to please.

Anyway, a small place in Bahrain can sell one million taels of silver, which is not a loss.

In Persia, where the commercial economy is not well developed, one million taels of silver is a huge sum of money.

This one million taels is enough for their royal family to spend a long time.

During the same period, UOB's first fleet to North America landed in San Francisco.

The Spaniards had already arrived in San Francisco in 1542, but they were not able to occupy it immediately, mainly because they were few in number and were not rivals to the local natives.

Until the middle of the eighteenth century, Spanish talents would send a large amount of manpower over to take the actual occupation of San Francisco.

Prior to this, the Spaniards were only a verbal occupation.

They said that this place belongs to them, but European countries have chosen to ignore this kind of nonsense, and the local indigenous people have also chosen to ignore it.

Dahua’s textbook also says that the entire world is Dahua’s territory, but now it has not been regained for the time being, and it has been occupied by barbarians.

In addition to cursing a few shameless words, other countries also chose to ignore it.

In short, when Dahua's gold rush fleet composed of pure merchants arrived in San Francisco, there was no battle.

In the port of San Francisco, there are only two Spanish buildings, and no more than twelve Spaniards have lived here for a long time.

When they saw Dahua's dozen or so big ships with heavy smoke, they didn't even know what they were.

Western Europe already knows a lot about steam engines, but there are still many places in the world that have never heard of steam engines.

Dahua came to nearly 3,000 people at one time, including three companies, namely Nanjing Tong's House, Nanjing Chen's House, and Songjiang Du's House.

Among the 3,000 people, more than 2,000 are laborers hired by the three of them, and there are more than 400 armed forces who are their respective families.

The rest are some talents in minerals, as well as servants.

With such a huge team, the Spaniards didn't even emphasize and declare that this is their territory. They didn't have the guts.

As for the locals, they want to express their dissatisfaction.

The two parties who don't understand the language are arguing that the chicken and the duck are talking.

Before arguing for a few minutes, the argument turned into a push and a fight. Finally, the Chinese chose to shoot and kill hundreds of people at once, which scared the indigenous people away.

So far, Dahua has its first stronghold in North America, and relying on this stronghold, began to explore the surrounding area.

The main thing is to look for gold mines. It is said that there are many gold mines here.

This news was naturally leaked by Wu Changqing.

Wu Changqing is actually not sure, but he vaguely remembers that there are many gold mines in San Francisco.

The biggest driving force that drives people to sea is the gold mine.

A Chinese fleet passed through Java and reached the Australian mainland, where it established a stronghold.

Because they are here to look for gold mines, in order to please the good luck, they named this place Jinshan.

In fact, it is Darwin.

Jinshan is a wilder area than San Francisco. San Francisco has aboriginals and Spain anyway.

When the Majestic Fleet arrived in Jinshan, no one had come across here, and all they had encountered were strange animals.

The Australian continent is isolated from other continents and has developed into a unique climate and environment.

Therefore, the animals here are basically unique.

However, the Chinese come here not to appreciate novel animals, but to find gold mines.

In the riverbed, they found a small amount of golden sand, which made them extremely excited.

This means that there are indeed gold mines here.

As long as you look for it upstream along the river, you can find a gold mine sooner or later.

After establishing the stronghold, they were divided into two parts. One part stayed behind and continued to search for gold mines, while the other part returned to Dahua to report on the situation and migrated more people over.

Regardless of whether there is a gold mine or not, there is no reason to leave them vacant in this vast land of no owner. It is also good to be used for farming.

Buying an acre of land in China still costs seven or eight yuan, and it cannot exceed fifty acres.

However, in foreign countries, there are no relevant regulations yet, and the limit of 50 mu can be exceeded.

More importantly, there is no money for overseas land.

As long as he goes over, swings two stones there, and declares that this place is his own, Dahua will not take care of it.

As long as they are not too outrageous and declare that the entire Jinshan is theirs, the court will not care.

Or in other words, I won't care for the time being.

Only when the large-scale immigration wave starts in the future and the immigration problem has formed, will Dahua possibly issue new laws.

These borderless lands are a great tool for attracting immigrants.
