Chapter 342: Europe is on the move

Soon, Williams followed the guards into the living room.

"Hello, General Zhou."

Williams smiled at Zhou Yu.

"Hello, Mr. Williams, please take a seat!"

Zhou Yu stood up and reached out to hold Williams.

"General Zhou, please forgive me for my intrusive visit." Williams sat down and said with a smile.

"It's okay, just tell me what's going on."

Zhou Yu didn't waste any time and asked directly.

"General Zhou is indeed straightforward. In that case, I will speak frankly.

"I came here mainly to tell you a piece of news, and also to discuss trade between our two countries."

Williams drank a cup of tea and put down the teacup.

"Oh, what's the news?"

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"The news is that the English fleet is on its way to the South Pacific, and their target is none other than Australia."

Williams said in a heavy tone.

"Is this serious?"

Zhou Yu was shocked.

"It's true."

Williams affirmed.

"Where are they now? When will they arrive? How many warships are there?"

Zhou Yu asked quickly.

"General, don't worry. In fact, the English fleet has just set out and it will take at least two months to arrive in the South Seas."

"As for the size of the fleet, there are about thirty warships and more than fifty merchant ships."

"I can tell the general their plan. They will first capture Malacca and then use Malacca as a base to advance towards Australia."

"And the reason I came here specifically to tell you this, General, is because I hope to establish a friendly relationship with you and promote trade between us."

Williams said with a smile.

"So that's how it is. Of course there's no problem with that."

"But trade has to be reciprocal, you understand."

"General Zhou, rest assured. Trade must be equal. We in Spain will never let you suffer any loss!"

Hearing this, Williams' eyes lit up and he quickly made the promise.

"Okay, in that case, this general can agree to your request!"

"But I still have a question. Why did Mr. Williams tell me such important news? Is it just for trade?"

"Haha, General, it's actually very simple, because we and England are enemies."

"We, Spain and England, are sworn enemies both in Europe and in Africa!

"So we hope to use your help to kill them!"

Williams explained with a faint smile.

"Oh, I see."

"But you just mentioned Africa. Does that mean you have black slaves too?"

Zhou Yu seemed to suddenly react and asked.

"Of course! And this is exactly the part of the trade I just mentioned. I know your country is in need of a large number of slaves now."

Williams said proudly.

"You mean, you are willing to sell black slaves to us?" Zhou Yu frowned.

“Sure, why not?”

Williams said with a smile.

"Haha, Mr. Williams is such a straightforward guy."

"Very good, the general agrees to this matter. You can send the black slaves here, but the price must be fair."

Zhou Yu laughed out loud.

Both Australia and America now need a large amount of labor, especially those strong black slaves.

Zhou Yu believed that if enough black slaves could be purchased from Spain, the problem of labor shortage could be solved.

"Of course, General Zhou, don't worry.

"The price is absolutely fair and reasonable, I can guarantee that."

"Okay, it's settled." Zhou Yu said with a smile.

"No problem, I wish us a happy cooperation."

Williams said with a big smile on his face.

Then, Williams said a few more pleasantries and left.

After Williams left, Zhou Yu immediately returned to the room and reported to Ning Quan using the intercom.

Ning Quan was of course very happy when he got the news.

Just as Zhou Yu thought, Australia and America are in urgent need of population and even more so of labor at this stage.

If we could buy a large number of black slaves from Spain, it would definitely ease the current pressure.

"General Zhou, you are fully responsible for this matter!"

"You can first transport the slaves to Australia, and then find a way to transfer them later. This way the distance is shorter."

"promise!"

"And about the English fleet."

"Since it dares to come, let it never return. I will send a large ship back to assist you and try to destroy the English fleet!"

"Also, America needs a large number of soldiers, at least 30,000."

"I will order the transport fleet to return. You must immediately organize your forces and send the fleet here!"

"As you say!"

Zhou Yu replied respectfully.

After ending the call, Zhou Yu immediately began to prepare.

On the one hand, he dispatched soldiers, and on the other hand, he prepared to fight the English fleet.

......

the other side.

After Ning Quan finished the communication, he immediately made arrangements.

He ordered the large ships and transport fleet to return immediately to transport the soldiers.

"Your Majesty, the situation in the city has stabilized."

"Generals Guan Yu and Li Cunxiao also led their troops to launch a full-scale occupation of the Inca Empire."

"But Your Majesty, there is no problem occupying the remaining land, but we are unable to keep up with the subsequent management. We currently have no officials to govern."

"I suggest recruiting officials from the mainland immediately."

Li Ji suggested.

"Yes, I understand. I have already sent the fleet back to transport the troops."

"A large number of officials will arrive at that time, so let's just hold on for a while."

Ning Quan nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Ji bowed and said.

"Oh, by the way, how's the treasure count going?"

Suddenly, Ning Quan remembered something and spoke.

The wealth of the Inca Empire is world-famous. After Ning Quan occupied the imperial city, he immediately found the gold and silver treasures hidden by the Inca royal family. The amount was huge and beyond imagination.

"Your Majesty, we're still counting. We've already counted approximately 43 million taels of gold and 100 million taels of silver. In addition, there are also jewelry, gold coins, jade, and other items."

"The final amount may be doubled, Your Majesty. We are rich this time."

Li Ji said excitedly.

He also didn't expect the Inca Empire to be so rich.

This huge fortune is enough to support the expenses of the entire Daqian period for five years, and it may not even be used up in ten years.

"Well, then continue counting. When you're done, let me know and I'll take them all away."

"In addition, there is the wealth of the people. The common people's wealth can be left alone, but the property of officials and nobles must be confiscated."

"Especially temples and the like. Not only should they be confiscated, but they should also be completely destroyed. We in Daqian do not need temples."

Ning Quan said indifferently.

Ning Quan could not, like Japan did, wipe out all the people of the Inca Empire, after all, there was no blood feud.

And the Inca Empire had tens of millions of people.
