Liu Peinianwan continued, "I not only want your own sea boats, but I also hope to ask you all to help me collect more sea boats as much as possible! In the next three months, I have important things to do!"
One person asked: "Dragon Prince, if this is the case, I'm afraid that a thousand sea boats will gather! How big a battle do you have to fight to need so many ships?"
Liu Pei shook his head and said, "This time I didn't gather so many ships for the sake of war. Actually, I have other arrangements. I just let me keep it a secret. I will not disclose it until the matter begins. I can only assure everyone that I will never use these ships to fight against the government!"
Everyone was relieved when they heard Liu Pei say this. For these maritime merchants, making money is important. If there is a conflict with the government, it will be troublesome if they can’t make money! But since Liu Pei refused to say what he wanted to do for a sea boat? Then everyone quickly turned the topic in another direction. That is the new waterway.
A middle-aged man said: "Dragon Prince, it's not enough to have a nautical chart. Now the South China Sea is very chaotic. The effects attack each other and do not have the value of doing business at all! What's even more hateful is that there are many pirates there, and a small fleet of ships will be robbed when they enter. I wonder if you have thought about this?"
The nai chart guided by Liu Pei said: "Of course I have thought about it. In the next three years, I will first set up two strongholds here and here, and rely on these two strongholds to sweep the South China Sea. It is planned to sweep all pirates in one year! These pirates have only two choices, one is to surrender, and the other is to be killed by me! Moreover, I not only want to eliminate the pirates, but also escort your ships! Of course, I only charge a small fee."
While Liu Pei was talking, he kept litting on the chart, depicting a beautiful picture of clothes for everyone present!
In this way, Liu Pei spread his plan out and told him layer by layer. Liu Pei's plan has been prepared for a long time. Southeast Asia is one of the places that Liu Pei must seize. On the one hand, Liu Pei is for funds and mineral resources. On the other hand, Liu Pei needs enough strategic space.
Now, the only ones under Liu Pei’s control are Ryukyu and Taiwan. It is said that they are two places, but in fact,
There are just a series of island fragments on it. This makes Liu Pei feel very insecure! People who grew up in the mainland always have deep feelings for the mainland, and they are uneasy when stepping on the island. They always have to step on the mainland to feel comfortable.
So based on these two points, Liu Pei formulated a plan to explore Southeast Asia. He was preparing to take advantage of the fact that European colonists did not have enough energy to pay attention to Asia, and he had to place Southeast Asia within his sphere of influence. After that, Liu Pei would be truly restless! Liu Pei could use Southeast Asia's rich resources to cultivate his army, industry and economy.
Liu Pei stood in front of the chart to explain his plan. It took half an hour to explain it alone. Within this hour, all the maritime merchants widened their eyes and raised their ears, fearing that they would miss every word Liu Pei had!
Especially when Liu Pei was expected to earn in every place at the beginning of the year, these people were breathing rapidly, their faces flushed, and their eyes almost turned into round outside and square inside!
After Liu Pei finished talking about the plan, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, waiting for everyone to report. At this time, everyone was so excited that they were in a very dissatisfaction and had close discussions with the people around him.
In the past, these maritime merchants had more routes to the north and fewer routes to the south. Because just now, there are many countries in Southeast Asia, and there are many conflicts with each other, and wars often occur.
And the most abominable thing is that there are many religious beliefs in the local area. Especially after the introduction of Islam, the local beliefs became even more chaotic! Things happened frequently in attacking each other for the sake of the gods.
After the European colonists intervened, they completely mixed up the water! At the same time, they also brought new religions. So now the entire Southeast Asia region is in chaos! It is not easy to untie this knot.
However, Liu Pei didn't think about being a world judge or commenting on them. What Liu Pei wanted was money, resources, and slaves! If you do business with me, then I will do business with you seriously! If you don't do business with me, I will grab it! Not only will you grab money, but you also grab people!
Anyway, these people are basically equivalent to monkeys in Liu Pei's heart. Especially those who like to play against China the most
The little Indonesian monkeys broke their roots early on by their ancestors, and the world became much more pure!
After Liu Pei finished a cup of tea, many maritime trades also came to a conclusion. They looked at Liu Pei eagerly, as if they were waiting for Liu Pei to give her order, and everyone rushed to Southeast Asia together!
Liu Pei put down the teacup and said, "Do you think this plan is like?"
A maritime merchant stood up and said, "Dragon Prince, I just don't know when this plan will be implemented. I am willing to sponsor the Dragon Prince's military expenses of 10,000 taels of silver! I just want to follow the Dragon Prince to go to Southeast Asia!"
As soon as they finished speaking, everyone expressed their support for Liu Pei's military pay and rations, and only asked Liu Pei to start this plan as soon as possible and were willing to participate in the first batch of actions.
Liu Pei sighed in his heart, it was indeed capital pursuing profit! Although this businessman donated a lot of money today, compared with the profits they obtained in the future, adding a zero after their donation is not enough! Moreover, it is not stupid for these people to develop Southeast Asia with two Liu Pei! Because the first batch of gains will definitely make a fortune!
Liu Pei waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down and said, "This plan is initially planned to start implementation in a year. Because I have too many things to do during this period! Don't you think that it's better to compare the number of ships in a naval battle, right?"
Everyone immediately burst into laughter. However, someone still had a smart person immediately expressed his opinion: "Dragon Prince, I have more than 40 ships in my hand, I have lent it to you! I can get almost 40 ships from my sworn brothers. In the past few days, I have asked them to drive directly to Penghu for the Dragon Prince to drive!"
It is good to deal with smart and powerful people! In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand sea boats were gathered! Liu Pei's guards immediately recorded the number of ships as if they had found treasures, and agreed on the banner and time for the meeting.
Chapter completed!
