I'm sure of the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong!

Chapter 23: Hidden Dog-Headed Military Advisor
Wang Li, who was wearing the uniform of a fifth-grade magistrate, had just habitually dusted off his robe and stood up.

Zhu Yijiong said: "Okay, Mr. Wang, I won't talk nonsense with you, just tell me! What can you do to solve Gu's urgent need?"

What he said was a bit too straightforward.

As a result, Wang Li didn't know what to do if he was planning to use it to flatter him.

After holding back for a moment, Wang Li asked: "I wonder what problem your Majesty has at the moment? Let me tell you and let the guilty minister listen first."

"You do not know?"

Zhu Yijiong was stunned for a moment and then understood.

Good guy, I've been tricked.

Fine!He is worthy of being a Taiwan Tongzhi of the Qing court. As the second-in-command of the prefecture, his official position is second only to that of the prefect.

Not to mention anything else, this hand clearly knows nothing, but it still uses tricks to make people's appetites more mysterious. It's really smooth!

King Zhu really believed his lie.

Looking at the inscrutable smile on this old man's face, coupled with his pretty good looks, he is actually quite bluffing.

The premise is that when this old guy was on Penghu Island, he didn't take the lead in grabbing the land with his head in front of King Zhu...

However, since everyone has been called, it doesn’t hurt to ask.

After all, he can be regarded as a scholar, and he can be regarded as a fifth-level scholar, so he has some real material, right?
"Master Wang, don't beat around the bush anymore, just tell me!"

Zhu Yijiong said, "I don't have enough food on hand now. My subordinates now suggest that I go directly to the private sector to borrow some food from the wealthy gentry. What do you think?"

Borrow food?I think it's a food grab, right?
The thief army is indeed a thief army. Even if it is said to be a thief army before the Ming Dynasty was restored, it is still a thief army.

Wang Li felt contempt in his heart, but he certainly could not say this: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. If this is really the case, even if your Majesty can temporarily obtain a large amount of military rations, he will annihilate himself from the entire stage. By then, there will be no need for the court to... Puppet Qing Dynasty When the army arrives, the king will destroy himself without attacking."

"Moreover, if there is just not enough food, why do you need to act like this? The guilty minister has another way to help the king solve his urgent need."

Zhu Yijiong became interested: "What method?"

Wang Li handed over his hand and said: "If the king trusts the guilty minister, please lend the guilty minister a troop of troops. It doesn't need to be too much, five hundred is enough. At that time, the guilty minister can raise enough military provisions for the king, which will not only solve the king's urgent task." Even helping the great king Nanping Du Junying and going north to collect Zhuluo is no problem."

raise?Still need to mobilize troops?
Isn’t this still a food grab?
Just as Zhu Yijiong was about to speak, Wang Li seemed to see through his thoughts and continued: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. The guilty ministers will not forcefully conquer the people, nor will they forcefully conquer those wealthy gentry. The guilty ministers are only for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. Big households are just collecting some future taxes and grains in advance.”

"Collect in advance?"

Zhu Yijiong was stunned.

Isn't this the three-step ax used by all dynasties to subjugate their country?

How can this be played?
Wang Li looked disapproving: "Now that the Ming Dynasty is newly restored, it is the time to spend money everywhere. You, the wealthy gentry, take shelter under the command of the Ming Dynasty. They only pay some taxes and grains in advance for the Ming Dynasty. What's the problem?"

"Furthermore, our Ming Dynasty did not impose forced taxes. The taxes and grains they paid today are exchanged for our Ming Dynasty to resist the puppet Qing army and eliminate the bandits in Taiwan. It can also be used to offset the taxes in the future. Isn't it possible to achieve multiple goals with one stone?"

"Moreover, after the Ming Dynasty, I will also arrange for these 'righteous gentry who volunteered to pay' to have their direct descendants enter the court as officials. By then, these righteous gentry will not be able to thank me, the Ming Dynasty, so how can they resent us?"

Good guy, Poison, you are so damn poisonous!

He is worthy of being a high-ranking member of the Qing court, but his heart is evil to the core.

The so-called early collection is nothing more than a name.

Although it is still no different from forced conscription, if it is renamed, it will be different.

Forced conquest from the front is forcing people to rebel.

But this has established a name, if there are still big players who are unwilling...what?Not willing yet?Are you dissatisfied with me, Daming?
Come here, I will drag down this traitor who pretends to be a traitor to the Qing Dynasty and kill him.

Oh...are you willing to pay?Well, very good, worthy of being called a loyal and righteous gentleman of the Ming Dynasty.Come on, call out all your legitimate children and grandchildren.

After being such a righteous gentry, his talents must be outstanding and he should be awarded official awards.

Fine!If you do this, even if someone is really resentful, they will not dare to make a mistake.

Not only did they not dare, but they also had to urgently hope that King Zhu would not be defeated and send more money and food to King Zhu.

Seeing that Zhu Yijiong was unmoved, Wang Li thought that the hint was not obvious enough, so he immediately knelt down and said without thinking, "The guilty minister Wang Li has been in the officialdom of the puppet Qing Dynasty for decades. He has been confused all day long and doesn't know what the use of being an official is. Today. , I will finally see the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, and then I will know where my destiny is. I hope that I will serve the king for the rest of my life until I die."

After saying that, he gritted his teeth and said: "The guilty minister is willing to donate all his family wealth to the king and provide a maritime trade route for the king."

"Ok?"

As soon as he said this, King Zhu came back to his senses instantly.

I originally thought that this royal gift was just a clever excuse for extortion and extortion.

As a result, I didn’t expect that there was actually a maritime trade route?
You know, since the Qing Dynasty, there have been sea bans since ancient times.

The former was to suppress the Ming and Zheng dynasties, and the latter was to curb coastal development.

To put it simply, it is to maintain stability.

This situation reached its peak in the middle and late Qianlong period, until the formation of Guangzhou Thirteen Lines, the only trading port.

Unexpectedly, this small stage bend.At this time, there are still people who have access to maritime trade routes.

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Zhu Yijiong quickly raised his hand and said: "Mr. Wang, please get up quickly. I can get help from Mr. Wang today, it is really like adding wings to a tiger."

All right!This changed from Mr. Wang to Mr. Wang.

The reason why Zhu Yijiong did not kill Wang Li before was purely because killing him would be useless.

Wang Zhen, his father and his son, and Ouyang Min behind them, the former is the key to the uprising and must be killed, otherwise there will be no explanation to his subordinates.

The latter was to give an explanation to the surrendered generals represented by Yang Gong.

After all, Ouyang Min and his three fathers died at the hands of these generals.

There is no reason to kill people like Wang Li and Liang Wenxuan. If they don't kill them, they can still be used for political propaganda.

Moreover, Zhu Yijiong is already doing this propaganda.

But now, I didn't expect that Wang Li and Taiwan Tongzhi would have so much capital.

King Zhu is really planning to use it. Even if he is a dog-headed military advisor, he is still a military advisor, right?

"Weak minister Wang Li, thank you Lord for your kindness!"

Wang Li did not dare to neglect at all, and once again bowed to the ground.

Fine!Of these two people, one was the king of the Ming Dynasty and the other was a high official of the Qing Dynasty.

Let’s learn from the ancients here and play the role of king and minister getting along well with each other.

It looks particularly funny.

　Tsk, something feels a little wrong
