Si Ye quickly asked someone to stop Lao Jiu, "You haven't finished speaking yet, you should come back!"
Then Lao Jiu was pulled back by Li Dequan, with the tears on his face still not wiped clean.
Si Ye called Lao Jiu to the map, "What are you occupying the place for? Of course it's for profit. But some places may not sound big, but their significance is immeasurable. There is one place that is very special..." Lao Jiu was not very happy.
After hearing this, it’s just very sad.
Si Ye pointed his hand on the map, "I saw this place. Zheng He stopped here six times during his voyages to the West..."
Lao Jiu was stunned for a moment, "Ma Liujia?"
right!
Si Ye said: "This place is a throat on the sea. During the Yonghui period of the Tang Dynasty, envoys were sent here to present five-color parrots. In the third year of Yongle, he expressed his willingness to be a county under the Ming Dynasty. Four years later, he arrived in Yongle.
In the seventh year, Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty at that time sent Zheng He to summon him and conferred the title of king on the local commander. After that, Malacca no longer belonged to Siam. Two years after the canonization, it was the ninth year of Yongle, and this vassal king once
He took the princess and five to six hundred followers to pay tribute to Emperor Yongle... From then on, they never stopped visiting until the end of Chenghua... [1] "
Lao Jiu understood immediately, "This place was occupied by the Portuguese earlier, and now it is occupied by the Dutch."
Si Ye nodded and looked at Lao Jiu, "I wonder if the vassal kings canonized by the Ming Dynasty at that time still have descendants?"
Lao Jiu turned his face and looked at Lao Liu: What do you mean? What do you mean? What do you mean by this?
Si Ye also looked at him: Whatever you understand means, that’s what it means.
Lao Jiu oh oh oh, I think I understood it right this time! He chuckled, thinking that even if we don’t occupy this place and only support the descendants of the earlier Malacca dynasty to continue to rule, we can still be here
Gain huge benefits.
If this place is not good, why will one after another people covet it? If you occupy it yourself, someone will sooner or later grab it. But only if it is tied to the interests of the local people can this last long.
Got it! If you say that, I won’t suffer any loss!
Si Ye sighed, in fact, Lao Ba is not too mean-spirited, so he has to ask Lao Ba to go to this place. Because Lao Ba has sold everything to others and still has the ability to help count money. If he is placed in such a place in the future, his power will definitely be intertwined.
This place couldn't be better. With Lao Ba's ability, he has been around here for a long time and can become the Supreme Emperor. He can control all kinds of forces. He just needs to stand on a high place. This place is not about using land.
It was determined by the size of the area, which had to be weighed in terms of importance. But Lao Ba was very clever, and using Lao Jiu as a springboard, he felt like he could step out with just one step.
Haha! Get out! We are not in a hurry! When you leave later, I will take Hongwang over and teach him. Are you running away? What a waste! In the future, your son will still have to bring back a piece of your territory!
Nowadays, it is okay to ask Lao Jiu to handle Malacca. Lao Jiu treats people with sincerity and pays attention to whether you win or I win in business, so asking him to do it is not a bad choice.
Lao Jiu thinks this is a little comfort. He really wants to live here. This is a steady stream of wealth. Huang Ama and these brothers are not cheating me! My hard work over the years can be considered recognized.
But I still feel sad, myna, myna, my brother has nothing wrong with you!
Regardless of how sad Lao Jiu was now, Si Ye only looked at several Han ministers: "My lords, is this unkind? And is it considered militarism?" No! It doesn't count! Because he was disturbed by Japanese pirates, how could he pacify them?
Can it be considered unkind? Taking the fight against Japanese pirates as an opportunity to establish prestige overseas is just to go abroad and establish diplomatic relations, which is a prerequisite for large-scale maritime trade.
Are they wrong? No! It makes no sense to attack others. But these things cannot be explained to the outside world, so people who don’t know them are not guilty.
Zi Ziye had a plan when he said it in the first place, so what kind of crime does he have? It can't even be considered as being careless in his words.
Anyway, don’t worry about what others did. Everyone who was fooled paid for it. Moreover, most of the people who took the money were Manchu nobles, such as the Ma Qi family and the Tong Guowei family. Don’t tell us that you didn’t go in.
Pay for it? We wouldn’t believe it!
Especially Tong Guowei, what do you want when you go back and forth with Lao Ba? Lao Ba deceived Lao Jiu, I hope Lao Ba did not deceive you.
Tong Guowei's lips trembled, probably because he was so angry at the shameless tricks of the royal family. In fact, the emperor would not have been so shameless in the early years, but in recent years, these princes have been manipulated into using all kinds of rogue tricks.
.
Don't say this is not a scam, haha! It's a scam for everyone! Why don't you invest your family's money in it? You may not get your money back in thirty to fifty years. It's hard to say that.
Then Thirteen spoke, "Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, from the nobles of the Manchu Dynasty to the ordinary bannermen, who has not reaped the dividends of the founding of the country. They have reaped the dividends of the court, but refused to use them when the court needed them.
, is this the upper and lower body sharing your worries for you?"
The third child hurriedly said: "Besides, who said I didn't take the money? I'm not rich, so I sent one hundred thousand taels to Prince Li. Who said I was standing on the dry bank?"
Prince Zhi hurriedly said, "The dowry money of the three younger siblings has been sent to my house. It was collected by Fujin. Whose family does it have? How much is it for each family? If you want to check, go to the emperor to check. This thing will be filed later."
The third child: "...Yes! Who among you has not spent all your money?" This unlucky woman even spent more money on her dowry, but I don't know! It's over this time, and I have to tighten my belt to live a good life.
Fourteen guilty conscience, why don’t I just have to pay nothing?
Just listen to what Prince Li said, "Even the Fourteenth Emperor sent me 50,000 taels."
Fourteen: "..." I didn't know that I, Fujin, was going out to give away money.
Prince Zhi also said, "That's not a small amount. I also gave you fifty thousand taels."
Fourteen: "..." This prodigal woman gave away all 100,000 yuan, does she still have any money at home?
Prince Li and Prince Zhi each said that Fourteen was not easy, and Fourteen was very understanding and took the overall situation into consideration.
Then Lao Ninth and Lao Ten both looked at Fourteen: Who do you belong to? It’s so exciting to tell us, as soon as the money is mentioned, you cry poverty and don’t even give out a penny. You are secretly talking to the boss and the second child behind your back.
You are flirting! You are a three-way bet, so you won’t go short!
Lao Ba sneered in his heart. He already knew that Fourteen was that kind of person! In essence, he is no different from Lao Si and Lao Liu. Anyway, they just want to be stable and want to win. They don’t make bets but always want to make big money. This is Lao Si and Lao
Six’s style!
Fourteen was looked at by so many people with all kinds of weird looks. He was a little thirsty. What could he say? He said I didn't know anything and it was the old ladies at home who did it behind my back.
No one believes it, and I can’t afford to be embarrassed!
He could only bite the bullet and said that this was what he should do and was not worth mentioning.
Then when the emperor said goodbye, they came out one by one. Fourteen was immediately slapped in the face by Lao Jiu and Lao Ten. From now on, he felt that being shameless was synonymous with him.
He turned to look at Lao Ba, snorted, and then shouted: "Brother Ninth, aren't you waiting for Brother Ba?"
Old Eighth glanced at Fourteenth and smiled slightly. Fourteenth suddenly felt that Old Eighth was plotting against him. He sneered and hid behind Old Fourth: I can't play with you, I won't play anymore.
Lao Ba secretly said it was a pity and left first.
Fourteen followed his fourth brother and sixth brother, and then went directly back to Lao Liu's house.
Si Ye asked Fourteen: "Knowing that you want to continue teasing me, how will I use you?"
Tch! Am I so afraid of him? Siye snorted coldly, "Japanese pirates are rampant in the Ryukyu area. It's not easy to defeat, but it's even more difficult to govern. It's like the Manchus entering the country. Was it difficult at first? I want to domesticate that place.
A man as kind as Lao Ba would not do anything like raising a butcher's knife. But when it comes time to do it, who will do it?"
Fourteen's expression changed, and Lao Ba wanted to pull himself into the knife in his hand. He swallowed hard, "When he finishes killing people, he can destroy this knife to appease the public's anger."
Yes!
Shi Shi asked with difficulty, "If he didn't plot against me this time, then who would he choose to make this knife?"
The fourth child looked at him as if he were a fool, "We have the same interests, and we trust each other. The status cannot be too low, but it will not be a pity to throw it away after use. Who else is around the eighth child?"
"Nian Gengyao!" Fourteenth suddenly understood. This person had many inappropriate behaviors during the process of requisitioning grain and grass. Anyone who exceeds the deadline will not be spared. It doesn't matter if he says he has strict military laws or if he says he is cold-blooded.
He may be a cruel official, but he doesn't look like a good person anyway!
When I thought about it, I suddenly understood: "Lao Ba is now in Lao Jiu's house, telling Lao Jiu his next plan from the bottom of his heart. There are too many things involved here that cannot be told to others, so
, Lao Jiu is afraid that he will still cooperate with Lao Ba to win Ryukyu first..."
right!
Old Fourteen felt a little angry and said to his Sixth Brother, "You have any ideas in your mind. Can you let me know if you can talk about it in private? Such a large area will be Old Eight's territory from now on! He is the only one among the brothers who has
Prince of the fiefdom." Wouldn't it be nice to give this place to my biological brother?
The fourth child no longer wants to talk to the fourteenth child. We just tell you everything. Are you capable of managing it? If you don’t want to lose your life, just stay there.
Fourteen was really unconvinced, and his grievances were not yet understood by his brothers. He stood up to leave. It would be better to avoid doing something during this period. There are too many twists and turns in these people's minds. Maybe now
What is revealed is not necessarily the trump card.
With this thought, he got up and was about to leave. When he reached the door, he stopped again and looked at his sixth brother: "...Have you told my sixth sister-in-law about these plans? I heard that sixth sister-in-law gave them to my elder brother.
Two hundred thousand, I gave two hundred thousand to the second brother, and two hundred thousand to the ninth sister-in-law... This payback period is not ordinary long, does the sixth sister-in-law know?"
Siye changed his expression slightly: No! Tongtong doesn’t know.
Fourteen smiled proudly, I knew it! You think you are smart, Huang Ama, the boss, the second child, the fourth child and you, and the eighth child, you don’t need to discuss it, your brains are all jumping on the same line. In this world
Everyone has been deceived by you!
But my good sixth brother, why don’t you even tell the truth about the person you sleep with?
How about brother, I go and tell Sixth Sister-in-law that after cheating Sixth Sister-in-law of so much money, I can’t ask Sixth Sister-in-law to love you properly?!
With Sister-in-law Six's hand strength, she can draw a first-class bow with the strength, it will be so painful - it will definitely hurt!
No! Your sixth sister-in-law actually doesn’t need to know
