Too deep!

Hidden too deeply!

Today's majesty has quietly exerted such profound influence on the local area. He can mobilize the power of any place without anyone knowing. His will and the new party's local foundation have truly controlled the country and turned the tables.

Cover your hands with clouds and make rain.

At least the entire north, plus Jiangnan, and the port military towns on the southeast coast are all firmly controlled by the emperor and the New Party. The emperor and the cabinet's decrees can directly bypass the Ministry of War and the Donglin Party. The Dikou military towns are all controlled by the emperor and the New Party.

The New Party is firmly in control, and the emperor and the cabinet's will can directly bypass the Ministry of War and the Donglin Party and exert influence on local areas, but the Donglin Party has nothing to do about it!

But thinking of this, Qian Qianyi suddenly became alarmed: It seems that he has gained a lot from this battle, but for His Majesty who has a great goal and intends to become an emperor through the ages, comparable to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, his appetite is really

Are you satisfied?

Nowadays, Zhang Haogu, the second chief minister of the Ming Dynasty who is worthy of the name, has a reputation among the people that is comparable to that of Yu Shaobao and Zhang Jiangling. Is he really satisfied with the current situation?

After all, when it comes to foreign development, the New Party is the real main force!

Thinking of this, Qian Qianyi's originally troubled heart suddenly calmed down, and his demeanor was calm: "Don't worry, everyone, there is still room for twists and turns on this matter."

The businessmen looked at Qian Qianyi's sudden change of attitude. Look at me, I look at you. Some monks were confused. What did Qian Xiang think of?

Step by step through the imperial examination, Qian Qianyi's brains must be among the smartest in the Ming Dynasty. Neither the new party nor the old Donglin party can change this.

Because to put it bluntly, the New Party and the Old Party still recognize the past years and policy ideas of the psychological or practical schools of thought, and those who can climb up in the fame and fortune fair of the Ming Dynasty officialdom are all talented people.

After thinking through the thoughts in his mind and sorting out the Da Ming Bao and Nei Cun he had read during this period, Qian Qianyi asked: "Everyone, how much do you know about Nanyang?

"How many countries are there in Nanyang? What is the culture of each country? Are they denying our Chinese civilization? How many people do they have? How many soldiers do they have? Have you ever understood these?"

"Do you know how many cities, soldiers and horses the Hongyi people have in Nanyang, and what their armaments are?"

The merchants on the southeastern coast of the Ming Dynasty have come step by step since their voyages to the Western Seas during the Yongle period, to the subsequent sea bans, and the relaxation of the bans during the Jiajing period, to the Longqing switch, and the Wanli sea ban.

There is always a lot of understanding.

These understandings are valuable knowledge that they rely on to make a fortune and maintain their own strength.

Now that Qian Qianyi was asking questions, they naturally wanted to answer Qian Qianyi in detail.

The businessmen looked at each other and one of them asked, "May I ask if Prime Minister Qian has a globe in his home?"

The globe Zamarudin, a native of the Western Regions in the Yuan Dynasty, cast a primitive globe depicting the distribution of the earth's land and sea for the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties. It was only the most primitive and rough version.

The Ming Dynasty naturally collected this globe. Subsequently, the Ming Dynasty also relied on the globe to gain a certain understanding of the world, including the seven voyages to the Western Seas during the Yongle period.

But the best ones are the globe made by Matteo Ricci for Emperor Wanli during the Wanli period and the complete map of Kunyu and all the kingdoms. Influenced by these, in the 31st year of Wanli, Li Zhizao produced the first globe of the Ming Dynasty.

Since Zhu Youxiao implemented the New Deal, Zhang Haogu wanted to let the monarchs, ministers, merchants and common people of the Ming Dynasty have a detailed understanding of the world and realize the importance of opening up sea trade, and also to smoothly draw blood from all over the world to supply the Ming Dynasty during the subsequent industrial development.

To develop industry, he used various means to promote the circulation of globes and maps in the Ming Dynasty.

Large-scale productions like the Complete Map of Kunyu and All Nations are naturally impossible for the people to have, but there are globes and some simple maps among the people. There are many gentry and wealthy families, wealthy businessmen and students. After all, the court is currently selecting these for officials.

As a cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty, Qian Qianyi naturally also had a globe.

After ordering someone to fetch the globe, a businessman stood up and came to Qian Qianyi to explain to him the culture, nationalities, military and civilian conditions of the Southeast Asian countries.

When Qian Qianyi heard

There are large areas of fertile land in Nanyang that can be harvested three times a year, and there are many gold and silver mines and many plantations. Qian Qianyi is even more convinced that the imperial court will definitely take action in Nanyang!

Businessmen can find out all this information, so there is no reason why Jin Yiwei doesn't know about it.

The Jinyiwei, as the most legitimate troops under the control of the Ming Emperor, had spies all over the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention the hundreds of officials in the capital, the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei was around the governors of various places, including Mongolia, Liaodong, and Southeast Asian countries.

During the Wanli period, whether it was Japanese pirates invading North Korea or turmoil in the northwest or trouble in the southwest, the Jinyiwei were the first to know about it. For example, Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded North Korea and attempted to use it as a springboard to attack the Ming Dynasty. None of the North Korean monarchs and ministers knew about it.

By that time, Jin Yiwei had already received the news and informed Emperor Wanli.

The development of the Jinyiwei is also closely related to the emperor himself. When an emperor can truly take charge of the world, then with the power of the emperor, the Jinyiwei can spread all over the Ming Dynasty like Hongwu and Yongle, and an emperor is ignored by civil servants.

At that time, the Jin Yiwei was naturally the sword in the hands of the cabinet.

Zhu Youxiao was naturally a truly powerful emperor. He was even ranked among the most powerful emperors in the history of Chinese dynasties. He had enough power and money, so Jinyiwei and Dongchang were able to vigorously develop and recruit people for development.

Offline.

Qian Qianyi has reason to believe that Jin Yiwei definitely knows a lot about the situation in the southeastern countries.

So an emperor with real power and ambition who knows that the southeastern countries have fertile land, rich resources, and large quantities of minerals, will he let go of Southeast Asia as a piece of cake?

After making up his mind, Qian Qianyi said with a smile: "It's not enough for me to know these things.

A wealthy businessman asked: "Mr. Qian, do you mean that your Majesty should know this?"

Qian Qianyi glanced at the wealthy businessman. I'm afraid there is something wrong with this wealthy businessman's mind. How much did you and I talk at the party today? What kind of tea did you drink? Even what kind of clothes you wore and what carriage you came in. Jin Yiwei can give it to you.

I feel it clearly. Do you still need to let Your Majesty know about these things?

"Ahem, these things are not for Your Majesty to know, but for the common people in the world and other businessmen to know." Qian Qianyi slowly stated his request.

The businessmen were in trouble now.

We are all businessmen from the southeastern coast, and we are all connected. We have always done overseas business. It doesn't matter if the people know about it. The stock price will rise again. But if the gentry and merchants in the north know about it, wouldn't it mean that they will have to fight with others?

Is everyone grabbing business?

Originally, I could earn ten yuan, but in the end I could only earn five yuan or even three yuan. Who would want to do this!

Seeing that the businessmen looked embarrassed and didn't say anything, Qian Qianyi was just drinking tea by himself. There was no need to speak too clearly, it was enough to say so much.

Next, it depends on whether these businessmen can recognize the reality.

Soon, after discussion, these businessmen came up with one person: "Don't worry, Mr. Qian, we will spend a lot of money when we get back, so that the people and businessmen in the north and south Zhili will know how rich Nanyang is."

Qian Qianyi gave another reminder: "The key point is those Red Yi people, that is, the Dutch, how much land they have occupied in Southeast Asia, how much wealth they have plundered, and how many gold and silver mines and plantations they have robbed.

The businessmen nodded: "We understand, don't worry about your money."

After the merchants left, Qian Qianyi slowly put down his tea cup.

What's the use of promoting how much money can be made by transporting goods from the Ming Dynasty to the West?

This is a rough journey, drifting on the ocean for several months, and risking a shipwreck. Are you willing to participate in this kind of thing?

Moreover, the imperial court sent troops to fight against the Hongyi people. If you go to do business and make money, what will people in other places think?

It is better to publicize how tyrannical the Hongyi people are in Nanyang, how they bully the imperial vassals, and how much wealth they have accumulated. In this way, everyone can be brought in to wipe out the Hongyi people in Nanyang. The imperial court occupies the land, and everyone takes the money and shares it together.

Benefit.

The Hongyi people disappeared in Nanyang, so why don’t they go to the land of Thailand and do business wherever they want?

As a Daming Pavilion elder who is well versed in human nature, Qian Qianyi feels that he can mobilize Daming people in just three sentences.

When local gentry and merchants come, my position as the elder of Daming Pavilion is really worthy of its name.

Soon, less than seven days had passed since the news that the Ming Navy had defeated the Red Yi pirate fleet, new gossip spread in Zhili, north and south of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, it’s about how the Hongyi people did evil in Nanyang.

In a teahouse in the capital, a small landowner said to his friends around him: "Hey, have you heard about it? Those Hongyi people in Nanyang are so abominable!

Someone asked: "Why are they so hateful?"

The small landowner said: "I heard people say that they are occupying land all over Southeast Asia, building their own cities, and enslaving the people. Isn't it a bad thing that good Thai people don't stay in the land of Thailand and come to us to do evil?

Someone asked again: "What does the Nanyang matter have to do with us?"

Some people were unhappy when these words came out: "Why doesn't it matter? Which of those countries in Southeast Asia is not a vassal of our Ming Dynasty? The Hongyi people oppressed the king, enslaved the people, and made money wantonly in their land. Isn't this attacking our Ming Dynasty?"

Face?」

As soon as this was said, everyone quite recognized it.

After all, everyone's life is getting better and better now. The Ming Dynasty is becoming stronger and more powerful, conquering all directions, conquering the south and the north. The people of the Ming Dynasty have straight backbones and high energy.

When the people of the Ming Dynasty were so arrogant, news came that the Hongyi people were bullying the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang. Isn't this the same as you bullying my little brother and deliberately hitting me in the face?

The proud people of the Ming Dynasty can't bear it. Anyway, I am not going to the battlefield. The face of the Ming Dynasty must not be lost!

Immediately, someone slapped the table: "Huh! Even the barbarians from the West dare to show off their evil deeds in the East! The imperial court should send a royal army to wipe out the barbarians and let those people from the West see how powerful the Ming Dynasty is!"

Then someone immediately echoed: "That's right, our Ming Dynasty has conquered the whole world in our battles in the south and north, and the whole world is full of kings and ministers. Since these Southeast Asian countries are vassals of our Ming Dynasty, how can we tolerate the oppression of the Westerners? If we don't punish them,

Let him tell you about the majesty of Ming Dynasty. Where is the majesty of Ming Dynasty?"

These words attracted the support of a large number of people around them. Yes, if we don't punish these barbarians, where will the power of Ming Dynasty be?

Anyway, the new army of the Ming Dynasty was invincible in all the battles in the south and north. Anyway, there was no need to go to the battlefield to fight desperately. The majestic capital of the Ming Dynasty was at the feet of the emperor. This must be a good demonstration of the courage of the men of the Ming Dynasty.

Just as he was talking, someone else whispered: "Hey, do you know why the Hongyi people in Taixi risked offending the Ming Dynasty and committed evil in Southeast Asia?"

Seeing everyone shaking their heads, this man said proudly: "My younger brother works in the south of the Yangtze River. He often goes to sea. According to him, Nanyang is very rich!"

"Rich? How rich?" Some people were puzzled.

The man said proudly: "According to what my brother-in-law said, the land in Nanyang is extremely fertile and fertile. It is normal to have three crops a year. Sow a handful of seeds and they will grow into food in a few months. And Nanyang

There is no winter there, the weather is warm and there is enough rain. The chickens, ducks and geese in Nanyang grow fat and strong one by one, which is called a shiny and shiny place."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened. Isn't it? The climate in Nanyang is hot, there is a lot of rain, and there are naturally a lot of bugs. There are mosquitoes, spiders, and centipedes. Chickens, ducks, and geese eat these all day long. How can they grow fat?
