I'm really not doing business

Chapter 371 His Majesty’s military talent is higher than the mountains

Five hundred taels can buy 50,000 catties of pork belly in the Ming Dynasty. The price of a catty of pork belly is eighteen cents of Feiqian or seven cents of large coins. Feiqian is a thin iron coin, and big coin is Tongbao, which is a big coin weighing three cents. One tael of silver, one hundred catties of pork belly, and one shi of rice. The time varies, about three to four qian. Even if the most expensive price is five qian, one tael of silver can be sold for two shi of rice, so five hundred taels. That's one thousand shi, which is 150,000 kilograms of rice.

This is still the best place in the capital. If it were not in the capital, it would be a little more. Everything in the capital is expensive, and it is not easy to live there for a long time.

Yao Guangqi is no longer the wealthy young man he used to be. When Wang Qian stood in front of the door and asked someone to bring five hundred taels of silver to Yao Guangqi for daily expenses, Yao Guangqi really wanted to call him "adopted father" on the spot.

His wife, a lady from a well-known family, divorced him because he bought two hundred taels of food for disaster relief!

Wang Qian actually envied Yao Guangqi. The less he had, the more he envied him. When he wanted to go to Luzon, he also had great ambitions and ambitions to worry about the world first and enjoy the world later. However, in the end, Didn't happen.

Yao Guangqi took five hundred taels of silver and left gratefully. As soon as he returned to Huitongguanyi, Wang Chonggu's younger brother Wang Chongyi had someone come to his door to propose marriage.

Wang Chonggu is a businessman. Yao Guangqi not only has a kelp business with a profit of 100,000 silver a year, but also has a big credit. Things will change later. Wang Chongyi hurried to the door and cooked rice as soon as possible before the matter spread. Don't let the two old dogs of the Yao family come back to their senses.

Seven days later, Yao Guangqi was a little confused in his new home. In a small courtyard with two entrances, Ming Media was marrying Wang Chongyi's daughter. Similarly, Wang Chonggu held a banquet at the Quanjin Guild Hall, which was considered as the old Wang family officially recognized Yao Guangqi as their son-in-law.

All this happened so fast. When Yao Guangqi was still a little confused, he became the son-in-law of the Wang family, had a house in the capital, and a wife. And the kelp business that he cared about was directly contacted by his father-in-law Wang Chongyi.

This has to mention an old incident from that year.

On April 4, the fifth year of Longqing's reign, the imperial censor Gao Yongchun inspected the salt affairs in Hedong. At that time, Gao Yongchun said: The bad salt law is due to the patent of Dashang, which must be based on the situation. Because it was pointed out that the fathers of the governor-general, Wang Chonggu's younger brother, and the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Zhang Siwei, were great merchants, and they worshiped the ancients and were influential in Siwei. Please punish them for advocating the ancients and dismiss Siwei.

This matter finally came to court discussion. The Hedong Salt Case was also an incident in the dispute between Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong over the chief minister.

Wang Chonggu's younger brother Wang Chongyi, Zhang Siwei's father Zhang Yunling, uncle Zhang Xialing, and third brother Zhang Sijiao were all the targets of the censor Gao Yongchun's denunciation. Even though Zhang Siwei made all kinds of pleas, he eventually ended up becoming an official.

Wang Chongyi, a salt merchant, was very successful, and now that Yao Guangqi had become Wang Chongyi's son-in-law, the business would naturally become even better.

The next day, Yao Guangqi also found out that his wife was not Wang Chongyi's biological daughter, but a distant cousin of the Wang family. Wang Chongyi did not have a daughter of suitable age for marriage, so he had to adopt one from a distant house. Obviously, Wang Chonggu and Wang Chongyi did not want to hide it from Yao Guangqi. Otherwise, the rhetoric would have been made up long ago.

But Wang Chonggu held a big banquet at the Quanjin Guild Hall, and Wang Chongyi recognized his son-in-law as his father-in-law. He was not his daughter, but his daughter. Wang Chongyi specially sent two big shopkeepers to Shandong to officially start the business.

Yao Guangqi is still very grateful to Wang Chonggu. Their Wang family business is also big in business. This kelp business can earn 100,000 silver a year. If it is not done well, it may lose money. Wang Chonggu can completely avoid this, but Wang Chonggu still I got this business and really took action.

Yao Guangqi received the reward at the Ministry of War. This was a reward for military merit. The group of pirates he wiped out was enough for a water village of 300 people to receive a fifth-class merit reward. The 500 soldiers who participated in the suppression of bandits could be awarded to everyone. A reward of twenty silver coins.

Yao Guangqi finished his work at the Ministry of War, and as soon as he walked out the door, he saw a little yellow gate hurriedly walking towards the noon gate. As soon as the little yellow gate saw Yao Guangqi, he immediately recognized him.

To be an official in the Ming Dynasty, you have to be good-looking, otherwise you will be moved to the second place because of your appearance. For example, Qiongzhou Qiu Jun, the same Qiu who wrote "Extensions of the University" and "Labor Theory of Value" Jun, the first Jinshi in Hainan, was passed over by the number one scholar just because of his appearance.

The long scar on Yao Guangqi's face was so eye-catching that he was immediately recognized by Xiao Huangmen.

Xiaohuangmen grabbed Yao Guangqi and said, "But Yao Guangqi, the official of the Mizhou Shipping Department, is in person?"

"Exactly." Yao Guangqi said quickly.

"Your Majesty declares his presence." Xiao Huangmen took Yao Guangqi to Zuoshunmen, asked him to wait here for a while, and then led him to wait in front of Wenhua Hall, which lasted for half an hour.

Yao Guangqi wanted to ask. He was a little thirsty after drinking the salty soup in the morning, but Xiao Huangmen stood motionless and very serious beside him, which made it difficult for Yao Guangqi to speak.

"Announcement of Yao Guangqi's visit." A team of eunuchs lowered their voices and passed down the heavenly language in the hall. Under the guidance of the small yellow gate, Yao Guangqicai walked step by step up to the Wenhua Hall and crossed the gate. He dared to look up and quickly saluted.

"I pay homage to your Majesty, long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty." Yao Guangqi bowed his head and listened very respectfully.

"Flat body, give me a seat." Zhu Yijun looked at Yao Guangqi, his tone was relatively relaxed, and even gave Yao Guangqi a seat. This was a super-standard treatment that many fourth-grade imperial censors did not get when they entered the palace. Zhang Hong also showed it to Yao Guangqi. Had a cup of tea.

"It's been half a year since I saw you again. Yao Aiqing is completely different. I feel so relieved." Zhu Yijun looked at Yao Guangqi and said in a gentle tone.

Your Majesty is very happy. Feng Bao and Zhang Hong are two losers under His Majesty's account. Both Feng Bao and Zhang Hong can see His Majesty's attitude and tone.

"I have never had the honor to meet Your Majesty before." Yao Guangqi frowned. He had really never seen Your Majesty before. He didn't even know what the Emperor looked like. Why did Your Majesty say this? Why did it mean goodbye?

"Look up and look." Zhu Yijun said in a wicked tone.

Yao Guangqi looked up, his brows twisted into knots. His Majesty's appearance gradually overlapped with a certain image in his mind. He was a little confused. When he and Wang Qian were fighting to the death, there were always people beside the pillars on the second floor of Yanxing Building. When he and Wang Qian were in conflict, he applauded loudly. He looked like he was not bothered by the excitement and wanted to start a fight immediately. It was extremely impressive. It turned out that the hated guy was His Majesty!

Yao Guangqi broke into a cold sweat!

Back then, he had a scoundrel who was a little displeased with His Majesty. His Majesty in Yanxing Tower was really annoying, and he screamed the loudest in the audience! The loser asked Yao Guangqi if he wanted to teach him a lesson. Yao Guangqi didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't let the loser do it.

"Do you recognize me?" Zhu Yijun said cheerfully.

"I'm blind, so please forgive me for my sin." Yao Guangqi's people were all numb. The capital of the Ming Dynasty was flooded with water. His Majesty was among the people watching the excitement in Yanxing Tower! Fortunately, he didn't let the loser teach him a lesson at that time!

"No problem, no problem. When you were in Yanxing Tower, your steps were sluggish, your eyes were dull, your face was pale, and you were swollen. Look at you now, you are walking like a dragon and a tiger, and your body is much stronger. Good, good, good." Zhu Yijun looked at Yao Guangqi's scar and said with a smile: "This scar is for the people. I recorded it for the people."

Feng Bao and Zhang Hong glanced at each other. That's not what His Majesty said at the beginning. His Majesty's scolding was very unpleasant. He said that Yao Guangqi was just a stick with a shiny surface, but he didn't do business all day long. I hate Yao Guangqi, but now Yao Guangqi has gained some holy favor.

"It's not a big deal." Yao Guangqi didn't think this scar was anything. He felt that someone else would have done the same thing as a prison officer there. Why should these pirates cut off the kelp that he had worked so hard to grow?

Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "Okay, okay, Wang Cifu has good vision and has found a good niece-in-law."

"I'm ashamed of myself." Wang Chonggu immediately bowed his head and said, Yao Guangqi fought for it himself, but was humiliated by his own son in front of the Yanxing Tower. He was still shamelessly eating for the sake of the kelp business, otherwise there would be nothing to do later. Son? Even if Yao Guangqi succeeded in the kelp business, he still couldn't make any money. Yao Guangqi just helped the fishermen find sales.

This is a free effort. If you sit at home, your credit will fall from the sky.

Zhu Yijun sat up straight and said seriously: "Yao Guangqi, this kelp business is doing well, it is a good thing to save the world and the people. People in coastal areas, big neck disease is not common, but in the mainland, it is very common, but among the people, a bowl Kelp soup may be able to save a family. After hard work, a child is born, but it turns out to be a deformed child. As a parent, it is neither abandoned nor raised, and the profit is not huge, but these four words of "helping the world and saving the people" are It’s worth the effort.”

"If you do a good job, I will give you the special title of Enke Jinshi."

Did Zhu Yijun only give him a special Jinshi Enke Jinshi? It is Jane who is in the heart of the emperor, the holy family, and a career that will lead to rapid success and prosperity, provided that Yao Guangqi really does this well.

Yao Guangqi bowed his head again and said: "I obey your order."

Yao Guangqi resigned and left the Wenhua Hall. Of course he understood His Majesty's promise, but his mood swings were not very big about this promise. His Majesty always keeps his word. Will he be able to eat this big cake that Your Majesty drew for him? Next, it still depends on whether he can win this piece of pie.

"Superintendent Yao, this is your Majesty's extra reward. Ten taels of silver is neither too much nor too little. You should keep it." A little yellow doorman handed a money bag to Yao Guangqi. The ten taels of silver didn't look like much. It's a lot, but if you think about it a little more, asking your stingy Majesty to give out a gift of ten taels of silver is already a great gift.

Your Majesty likes to reward with real money and silver. Those who can get His Majesty's silver are those who have left their names with Your Majesty.

The reason why Zhu Yijun specially summoned Yao Guangqi is that Zhu Yijun asked Ling Yunyi to promote the cultivation of kelp. Xu Wei sent the kelp seeds from the Governor's Palace in Nagasaki to the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yijun has been engaged in farming mulberry crops, potatoes, sweet potatoes, sugar cane, and peppers for a long time. , He can grow it, Baoqi Sisi is Xu Zhenming, but in Xiyuan, where the emperor lives, there is a large area of ​​farmland outside Guanghan Hall.

Now that Yao Guangqi has started to do it, Zhu Yijun naturally does not intend to sit idly by.

The news that Yao Guangqi entered the palace to meet the saint soon reached the ears of some well-informed people. Before Yao Guangqi left the palace, the news reached the Yao family in Xitucheng.

After receiving the news, Yao Changzhen and Yao Changxing were both a little confused. Why did Your Majesty announce to a prison official who was born in Juren? Why did Wang Chonggu put in so much effort to win over Yao Guangqi, a man with scars on his face who was destined to never be a member of the royal family?

"I know, damn!" Yao Changxing slapped his thigh. He figured it out. He said in a daze: "Brother, Guangqi, this kid, is going to have a great career, just around the corner! Congratulations..."

Yao Changxing felt that the emperor was spending a lot of money to buy horse bones. In order to continue to promote the people to become officials and accumulate practical experience, in order to continue to promote the people as the foundation of the country and the foundation of the country, he originally wanted to congratulate his eldest brother, but he immediately I remembered how polite everyone was at the banquet that day.

Being polite has never been a family.

Yao Guangqi will go to heaven and earth in the future, and will have nothing to do with the Yao family. There is no congratulations. He is now Wang Chonggu's niece-in-law! "Alas." Yao Changzhen sighed heavily. Yao Changzhen sighed because it was a pity that she had lost an opportunity to improve her relationship with His Majesty.

The court discussions in the Wenhua Palace are still going on. Yao Guangqi's audience is just a matter of the courtiers having just concluded a topic, so they took advantage of every opportunity to allow Yao Guangqi to enter the palace.

"News came from Luzon. The horse boat we sent to the Mughal Kingdom was seized by the Goa Governor's Palace!" Zhu Yijun's expression changed after Yao Guangqi left. Even the temperature of the Wenhua Palace dropped a few degrees. Apparently , the Ming Dynasty horse boat was detained on its way back through the Strait of Malacca, which made Zhu Yijun very, very dissatisfied.

Dare to arrest Ming Dynasty’s ship! In the Governor's Palace of Goa, Governor Meneses has already figured out how to kill himself.

Zhang Juzheng looked around at the courtiers and said: "Fifty horse ships of the Ming Dynasty were returning to the port of Malacca to resupply. They were suddenly boarded by the Malacca City Hall. The men and ships were detained in Malacca City. Menezes sent a message The surname of the country is Zhengmao, and I have put forward conditions and said that Ming Dynasty will agree to it before I will let him go."

Zhu Yijun said coldly: "No matter what conditions Meneses proposes, I will agree to him. He has his life, but he has no life to spend!"

"Your Majesty, Menezes put forward a condition, hoping to send an envoy to the Ming Dynasty. Menezes previously gave many conditions in the hope of negotiating a peace. Menezes suspected that Yin Butang was obstructing it, and Luzon was doing it for his own benefit. , refused to tell the court about the conditions he proposed." Zhang Juzheng said with a complicated expression.

Menezes' terms for peace were:

All ports and waterways within the jurisdiction of the Governor-General of Goa were opened, and merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty could trade freely;

All merchant ships in the Ming Dynasty will be accounted for according to the Ming Dynasty tax rate, and a 6% tax will be implemented;

Menezes can provide all nautical charts within the Malacca waterway to ensure the smooth navigation of the Ming Dynasty fleet and prevent stranding;

Daming can hire local trackers and barges to deliver goods;

Only ships passing through the Malacca waterway will not be charged any points or taxes, and request the Governor-General of Goa to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty in the name of Mankara;

Menezes seized the Ming Dynasty's ship and asked to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. This operation can be roughly summarized as: Dad, open the door, and I will give you a big kowtow.

The conditions given by Menezes were clear to the court, but what Ming wanted was the Strait of Malacca itself, that place. No matter how favorable the conditions were, they were not as important as that place. No matter how favorable the conditions were, they would be in vain unless he could withdraw from Malacca. strait.

"He sent his envoys just as he sent them. What are you doing to seize my ship?!" Zhu Yijun slapped the table. He was very angry about the fact that the Goa Governor's Palace dared to seize the ship. He was fine when he went, but he can't come back!

Wan Shihe said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please calm down. If I were Meneses, I would also seize the ship."

"The reason for arresting the ship is actually very simple. I am afraid that the Ming court does not know that the Governor's Palace of Goa has a high degree of autonomy. In Menezes' eyes, the Governor's Palace of Luzon and their Goa Governor's Palace are both weak. In our Central Plains, this Called Fanzhen, he wanted to talk to the Ming Dynasty, but he couldn't communicate directly with the Ming Dynasty court. There was Luzon in the middle, so he had no choice but to do this."

"This also just shows that Masashige did a very good job in Luzon. The battle at Tuna Bay completely knocked out Meneses' courage."

In Taixi, my vassal's vassal is not my vassal, which is very reasonable. However, in the Ming Dynasty, the enfeoffment system was only a supplement to the county system. The fragmented management method was the Ming Dynasty's bureaucracy. Completely different from Tessie.

Menezes didn't know much about the Ming Dynasty. He believed that the Luzon Governor's Palace did not tell the Ming Dynasty court about his conditions at all. Yin Zhengmao was so distressed that he had to take this step.

It was an extremely unwise choice to have a military conflict with the Ming Dynasty on the Wanli Seawall. The Ming Dynasty's homeland was too close, and the support was too fast. It could not be defeated again and again, and there was no way to negotiate. The Ming Dynasty had fifty horse boats and two men. Fifteen thousand war horses and five hundred stallions are obviously strategic materials, but if Meneses had the means, he would not do this.

In the past few months, Yin Zhengmao had done nothing else but send the natives to die under the castle in the Strait of Malacca.

"The more he does this, the more I want to take back the Strait of Malacca. The Palembang Xuanwei Department must be in the hands of the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Yijun frowned. Meneses's action just proved that the Strait of Malacca is not in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. These The shit just keeps getting worse.

He can seize Ming's ship now, and he can also seize and extort it in the future. This kind of thing happens once and countless times.

"Your Majesty, good news! Good news!" Xiao Huangmen rushed into the Wenhua Hall. He was in such a hurry that he didn't pay attention to his feet. A silky figure stumbled, rolled, knelt down, and raised the newspaper in his hand. This silky little set of The combination of moves not only expresses the seriousness of the matter, but also demonstrates his professionalism. Even if he falls down by accident, he can still protect the safety of Jiebao.

Zhu Yijun had seen a lot of this silky little combo. He asked Feng Bao to take the victory report to the platform, stretched out his hand, checked the paint, opened the pond report, then unfolded it, and after reading it, handed it to I asked Feng Bao to pass it on.

"No wonder Menezes wanted to seize the Ming Dynasty's ship and sent envoys to talk in a hurry. It turned out that the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry. We, the Ming Dynasty, won the war again, hahaha!!" Zhu Yijun could hold it in at first, but later he became full of joy. He laughed, his smile was bright and sunny.

Another battle was won. In these years, there was hardly any defeat. The only one was in the second year of Wanli, when Tang Kekuan, the commander-in-chief of Miyun, went out to meet the enemy and died for his country.

Zhu Yijun still treated Tang Kekuan as a hero. Even though he disobeyed General Qi Jiguang and took the initiative to go out to fight. Even if it was to warn against this disrespectful behavior and deprived Tang Kekuan's son of the hereditary thousand households, Zhu Yijun still built the Heroes' Soul Temple for Tang Kekuan. , recognizing his status as a hero who died for the Ming Dynasty.

Tang Kekuan's motive for leaving the border cannot be verified. He may have done it to gain credit, to reduce the pressure on Qi Jiguang's side, or because he was jealous. But he died outside the Great Wall, on the battlefield. This is a hero. .

Zhu Yijun has always received good news over the years, and he smiles happily every time. The self-cultivation skills taught by Zhang Juzheng are always lost without a trace at this moment.

It is true that there is no self-restraint, and the court officials of the Ming Dynasty are also laughing, but they are not laughing so fiercely.

After the Battle of Tuna Bay, Yin Zhengmao did not stop the pursuit, but immediately began to pursue the victory. The natives from various plantations had already thrown themselves into the battlefield of the Malacca Strait. After the fierce confrontation, Zhang Yuanxun led Zhang Yuanxun People rushed into the old port.

It is the old port of the Xuanwei Division established by Emperor Yongle, located on the side of the Strait of Malacca closer to the Wanli Seawall.

Soldiers who, deception also.

The hired aboriginals had extremely weak offensive capabilities, and they always pretended to attack. As time went by, the red-haired troops defending Jiugang became somewhat careless and began to pretend. As a result, Zhang Yuanxun's main force suddenly began to attack the city. Mao Fan thought it was aboriginals attacking the city and was lazy. However, after discovering that it was the main force of the enemy, it was too late. The old port was captured by Zhang Yuanxun as a matter of course.

Zhang Yuanxun, the former Commander-in-Chief of Guangdong. When Yin Zhengmao left Guangdong and Guangxi, Zhang Yuanxun followed Yin Zhengmao to Luzon and was named Ying Yangbo. After that, he made many meritorious deeds over several years. Ling Yunyi pacified the Luopang Mountain Yao people. During the civil unrest, he was afraid that he would be beheaded by the emperor if he lost, so he specially borrowed Zhang Yuanxun from Yin Zhengmao.

After the Battle of Tuna Bay, Zhang Yuanxun was conferred the title of Marquis of Yingyang. Zhang Yuanxun has not received the edict, crown, seal and ribbon of the Marquis. The edict has arrived in Manila, and Zhang Yuanxun is in Old Port. These two places The distance was almost two thousand miles, but the good news reached the capital first.

"Qi Shuai, the battlefield is indeed a place of rapid change. Qi Shuai will not deceive me." Zhu Yijun looked at Qi Jiguang, his smile still bright.

Qi Jiguang always said that fighter opportunities are fleeting and difficult to grasp. Being able to accurately grasp fighter opportunities is a military talent. Zhu Yijun believed in Qi Jiguang's words and was even more convinced now. This guy Zhang Yuanxun made this place true and false. If Zhu Yijun were a red-haired fan, he would also be careless, this scheming Ying Yanghou.

"Your Majesty, before the soldiers and horses use food and grass, they must go first. Logistics is also a battlefield, and it is crucial. The battlefield at the rear determines the battlefield at the front." Qi Jiguang said with great certainty. Your Majesty has no military talent? Then expand the definition of military talent. In this way, doesn’t His Majesty have military talent? !

If you can't change the facts, just change the definition. Qi Jiguang has his own twists and turns. His Majesty's military talent is higher than the mountains!

His Majesty is extremely talented in organizing logistics. Before the sea was even opened, His Majesty was already preparing sweet potatoes to burn the national cellar. And who dares to say that logistics is not a battlefield?

How could the Ming Navy win without five-masted ships, no three-masted plywood ships, no battleships, no artillery, no muskets, long and short soldiers, armor, no food and fodder, and no national vaults? Will determines the lower limit, and armaments determine the upper limit.

The Ming Dynasty has repeatedly won battles. Is it not the Ming Emperor's continuous dedication to Zhenwu?

In the past seven years, the wind and rain have not ceased. It is His Majesty who goes to Peking Camp to parade the military horses every day. In the past seven years, it is His Majesty who has guaranteed the military pay of eighteen silver dollars every year in the Beijing Camp. In the past seven years, it is His Majesty who has continuously improved the treatment of the soldiers and reported it to the emperor and the emperor. It is also His Majesty who made the ideal slogan of "rescuing the head of Guizhou" a reality.

Not only those who stand in the light are heroes.

"Reward!" Zhu Yijun looked at Feng Bao and said: "This Jiugang Xuanwei Division must at least set a second-class merit reward plate. According to the agreement, one soldier is one hundred taels of silver. There are a total of three thousand soldiers in this expedition. , is there any problem with internal funds?”

"Your Majesty, the internal funds are abundant." Feng Bao did not say much and reassured His Majesty that such a small amount of money can still be obtained from the internal funds.

It was only 300,000 silver. The internal funds are now very generous. At the end of the fifth year of Wanli, His Majesty took out the internal funds and used them to open the sea. At that time, he took away 10 million silver.

There are currently nearly 4.5 million in cash in the internal funds. Various jewelry and treasures are not included. They are just discussing matters in the Wenhua Hall, so it is not convenient to say more.

Rewards are all from internal funds. This is something that has been made clear after the fifth-class merit reward card system was established. This amount is three hundred thousand silver. Zhu Yijun’s buckle is a real buckle, and it is also a real buckle when it is generous. The width.

"Let's use the national funds to reward people." Wang Guoguang, the cabinet minister of the Ministry of Revenue, immediately said that the national funds should also contribute some money. With good news, rewards are inevitable, so let the internal funds contribute. Cui Min, the eunuch of the internal funds, is coming again. The Hubu was scolding the public, and these eunuchs in the palace, relying on themselves as villains, scolded them as harshly as possible.

"Ying Yanghou said in the victory report that they had seized 70 red-haired merchant ships parked in the old port and asked Menezes to release the Ming Dynasty ships immediately. They would release 50 merchant ships and the rest. Twenty items, Marquis Yingyang asked them for ransom, hahaha!" After reading the good news, Tan Lun burst into laughter as he clapped his hands. If you dare to detain the Ming Dynasty's merchant ship, you will immediately detain your red-haired merchant ship.

You buckle, I buckle too.

Zhang Yuanxun's approach is very consistent with the practice of treating others with their own medicine. The Ming Dynasty and the Goa Governor-General's Palace have made it clear from the beginning that merchant ships that do not use their bows and medicines will not be detained or harassed. This Since Menezes dared to seize the ship, don't blame him Zhang Yuanxun for not obeying the rules.

The Ming Dynasty navy and the Spanish expeditionary force had been fighting in Mindanao for so long. The Thai and Western galleons came every year, and the Ming Dynasty never took action on the galleons. Merchant ships were the lifeblood of the circulation of goods. Trade exchanges were cut off, and they had no influence on each other. Not a good thing.

　Qi Jiguang: As long as the soldiers can be fed and drunk, I can even praise His Majesty as unparalleled in the world! Please give me a monthly ticket, oooooooooo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
