Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

"I know it!"

Zhu Gaosui nodded repeatedly.

Guo An continued: "Zhangde Mansion is His Highness's base, and it is also His Highness's retreat!"

"Basic base, retreat?"

Zhu Gaosui was a little confused.

Guo An said seriously: "Your Highness, the Zhangde Mansion is rich. It can guarantee that your Highness, King Zhao, will enjoy wealth forever."

Zhu Gaosui nodded again, "What Marquis Guo said is absolutely true!"

"This is the basic plan!"

Guo An continued: "As for overseas, that's where His Highness can make contributions and build a kingdom for King Zhao's lineage."

Zhu Gaosui's eyes widened. After all, he still wanted him to go to sea?
Guo An had already continued: "Your Highness has three guards and horses. As long as he goes to sea and attacks any barbarian land, isn't it easy to capture him?
As for whether there will be poisonous insects, ferocious beasts, natives, etc. in those barbarian lands...

With more than 1 elite soldiers under His Highness, and more than a dozen doctors from the Peking Medical Hall, as well as good doctors in His Highness's house, they will definitely be able to avoid those poisonous insects and diseases..."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaosui couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Guo An continued to confuse: "His Royal Highness led troops to sea, attacked overseas vassal states, opened up borders and expanded territory, and achieved unparalleled achievements.

In addition, although the overseas vassals are not full of wealth, there are also some valuable items, especially those iron ore, silver ore, spices, taxes..."

"Zhangde Mansion has a large population, and His Highness can constantly recruit soldiers from afar.

And if His Highness gets tired of staying overseas, he can hand over the overseas feudal kingdom to his descendants, bring enough money, return to Zhangde Mansion, and still enjoy the glory and wealth of the Ming Dynasty Prince. "

"Overseas is where His Highness King Zhao will develop his grand plans, and Zhangde Mansion is where His Highness's base and retreat are. How do His Highnesses feel about this kind of plan?"

Zhu Gaosui had already followed Guo An's words and fell into a beautiful fantasy.

Although at this time, Zhu Gaosui did not follow Zhu Gaoxu wholeheartedly because of Jingnan and fight together.

However, Zhu Gaosui himself is also an ambitious person.

This ambition has been suppressed by Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi and cannot be released.

Now, Guo An's suggestion has directly expanded Zhu Gaosui's ambitions.

After coming back to his senses, Zhu Gaosui stared at Guo An with bright eyes.

"Marquis Guo, in the remaining overseas countries, are there any barbarian lands that are richer than the Japanese?"

"Wealthier than Japan?"

Guo An chuckled directly and said, "Your Highness, if we compare with the local natives, except for the two or three big Western countries, there really is no country that can compare with the Japanese country.

However, when it comes to the richness of products, Xiaguan feels that many barbarian countries in Southeast Asia and the West are richer than the Japanese.

Especially if His Highness chooses a barbarian country near the sea and builds a seaport there!
As soon as His Majesty opens the sea, all merchants in the entire Ming Dynasty will go to sea for trade. So many fleets will pass by His Highness's harbor, and even conduct transactions...

How much wealth can that harbor bring to His Highness? "

Zhu Gaosui's eyes immediately shone, "Guo Hou, isn't that even more prosperous than Zhangjiawan Pier?"

"His Royal Highness's situation has become too small!"

Guo An's tone was a bit disdainful, "Your Highness's harbor must be several times more prosperous than Zhangjiawan Pier!
Moreover, if His Majesty takes a share of the income from the seaport, it will basically all belong to His Highness alone! "

"Does everything belong to me?"

Zhu Gaosui's breathing quickened, "How much money can you make every year?"

Guo An thought for a moment and then said: "Two million taels of silver must be there! As for whether it can be more, I don't know. After all, there has never been a precedent!"

"Done!"

Zhu Gaosui shouted loudly, "Marquis Guo, I have done this, and I will go find my father!"

With that said, Zhu Gaosui left Guo An and prepared to walk out.

After walking a few steps, I remembered something and hurried back.

"Marquis Guo, have you told anyone else about this plan?"

Guo An shook his head, "No!"

"Very good!"

Zhu Gaosui's face lit up and he said quickly: "In this case, please don't tell outsiders again!"

"It's natural!"

Guo An nodded slightly, "I will only tell the people closest to me about this kind of wealth-making plan." "Haha, Marquis Guo is still clear in his heart. Now, in the entire capital, I, King Zhao, am the only one who treats Guo Marquis the best!"

"Exactly!"

Guo An nodded again.

Zhu Gaosui assured again: "Please rest assured, Marquis Guo, if I conquer a large territory overseas, I will definitely not forget Marquis Guo's kindness today!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Guo An nodded again, without much gratitude in his eyes.

If he believed that bastard Zhu Gaosui, then he was blinded by lard!

As for Zhu Gaosui, after achieving his goal, he ignored Guo An's reaction and headed directly to the capital with a group of guards.

Along the way, he rushed into the palace with excitement and came to Fengtian Hall.

After the briefing, Zhu Di summoned Zhu Gaosui out of curiosity.

"Why are you kid so willing to take the initiative to look for us today?"

Zhu Gaosui said with a serious face: "Dad, my child has something important to report to dad!"

"Oh?"

Zhu Di chuckled and asked casually: "What's the matter?"

Zhu Gaosui said: "Dad, the Boyer vassal governs Anyang, Linzhang, Neihuang, Tangyin, Linxian, Shexian, Wu'an and other counties. There are 270 [-] households under its rule!

Such a large place and people are suitable for growing the latest rice developed by the farm.

The child wants to ask his father to send some master farmers from the farms to sell the child some fine seeds. The child wants to lead the people in the domain to plant new grains so that the people in the domain can have enough to eat, just like the people in Beiping Prefecture... "

"Ok?"

Zhu Di looked straight and stared at Zhu Gaosui closely.

"Are you serious, kid?"

Zhu Gaosui felt happy and nodded repeatedly.

"Dad, Zhangde Mansion is the territory of Hai'er vassal. The people of Zhangde Mansion are getting rich, and Prince Zhao's Mansion of Hai'er will benefit even more!"

"Very good!"

A trace of excitement flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, "We will give you ten master farmers and give you a hundred dan of fine seeds!"

"Thank you dad!"

Zhu Gaosui was immediately grateful.

Then, Zhu Gaosui continued: "Dad, I have something else I want to tell you!"

Zhu Di looked forward to it and said, "Is there anything else?"

Zhu Gaosui glanced at Zhu Di and said cautiously: "My child is ready to train!"

"Practice?"

Zhu Di's expression became condensed, "Where are we going to train our troops and what are we training for?"

Zhu Gaosui said hurriedly: "Dad, I want to train my three Changshan guards. I am going to wait until the horses and fleet return. After my father sets out to sea, he wants to attack overseas barbarian countries, just like when my father was still King Yan. Open up and expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty, and build a kingdom for my lineage, King Zhao!"

"Have ambition! It's our seed..."

Zhu Di praised.

Zhu Gaosui looked overjoyed.

Zhu Di asked again: "What else are you going to do to conquer the feudal country?"

Zhu Gaosui subconsciously replied: "My child is also planning to build a seaport for merchants who go to sea to trade!"

"Very good!"

Zhu Di nodded slowly, "Who taught you this?"

"Yes……"

Zhu Gaosui's face froze.
