Episode 439
Early in the morning, Zheng De ’s meal had been completed. Yang Ling came to see him. It took a long time to see Yang Ling rushing in and out, and there were still some inconveniences in the way. Both eyes were red.
Zhengde only saved his fall yesterday, and said in surprise: "Yang Qing, what are you doing?"
Yang Ling grinned: "Returning to the emperor, the minister rushed out of the door yesterday and slammed his foot, so he walked limping."
Zhengde suddenly realized that he nodded and suddenly asked, "Then your eyes ...?"
"Oh, eyes, I organized that volume of books all night and stayed there for a whole night, so ...".
Zhengde moved his hand with emotion and said, "Ai Qing, only you, Ken is so worried about me."
With a long sigh, he shook his head and said, "I looked at the book and felt chilled. Around me, there were some flattery all day long, and some seemingly all-day criticism of the monarch and impeachment of the minister, as if he was a justice of incomparable justice, Who is really sincere, who is just doing what it looks like? "
He sat back in his chair and meditated, "This night, I also thought about it a lot. Ning Wang ’s rebellion is not just about the rebellion itself, there are some problems that cannot be solved or dealt with, maybe when it will break out. , But you are right, when the water is clear, there is no fish. Sometimes I have to be confused. Some things I want to deal with cannot be rushed. Alas! The way of the emperor is really a headache. "
Yang Ling smiled and said: "The emperor should not be anxious. Ning Wang rebelled and had soldiers and money, so they were easily destroyed by the emperor. What harm could the collusion of local officials do? The emperor was worried, but only worried about them. Taking risks, Yu Guozheng and the people's livelihood will be destroyed again. As long as we don't make any noises and try our best, these patients can slowly resolve without hurting their vitality. "
"Well!" Emperor Zhengde nodded and smiled: "I was a little playful since I was a child, and I didn't know much about Guo Guoli's strategy. Fortunately, with the help of Ai Qing, I didn't panic. Right. Ai Qing Jiangxi ’s affairs have been almost resolved. I want to leave Longhu Mountain today. Let ’s go back to Nanjing first and then take the waterway north. So I can go to Suhang, which is known as a paradise on earth, to see Xiehai open the ban The weather of Jiangnan after that. "
Yang Ling was relieved when she heard it. Suddenly said: "Okay, Nachen went to arrange immediately, we immediately left Longhu Mountain."
Yang Ling walked away and immediately went to discuss the preparation with Du Fu. He now meets Zhang Fubao terribly. That little girl was cheap enough for him to occupy a lot of land, that is, staying in Tianshi Mansion since childhood, ignorant about men and women, only let him flicker past. But Yang Ling was ashamed, and staying in Tianshifu felt awkward.
Yang Ling and Du Fu arranged the honor of driving, and hurried back to the house immediately. I saw Zhang Tianshi standing beside Zhengde. Yang Ling met his elder brother and smiled in a dim sum: "Tianshi, thank you for coming here, thank you You are kind to you. You helped the court to capture the rebellion and solved the matter without any swordsman. Yang Mou will soon be back to Beijing with his driver. He is destined to receive the Master in his own house. "
Zhengde haha ​​smiled and said, "The fate is here now! I have a lot of experience in discussing the classics with Tianshi, and I'm inviting Tianshi to go to the capital to discuss with me nearby."
"Ah? Heavenly Master will also go back to Beijing with him?" Yang Ling exclaimed.
Zhang Tianshi smiled and said: "Why, Guo Gong is not welcome?"
Yang Ling quickly turned to surprise. Lianchao said: "That's natural. That's natural. I and Tianshi saw each other as before. It's a pity that this meeting is so natural because it's busy, and it's natural to go to the capital. Haha, haha!"
After finishing his speech, Yang Ling asked with great concern: "What do Heaven Masters need to bring? You can move to the car outside the house first."
Zhang Tianshi smiled and said, "I am a monk, and I am alone. I do n’t care about it. I do n’t have much stuff, but my sister ’s supplies may be more." ? "
Yang Ling was shocked again: "Does Lingmei also want to follow you into Beijing?"
Zhang Tianshi looked at him strangely and sighed, "Yeah, my sister always likes to travel around with me everywhere. As long as I heard that I am going to go far, this girl is always entangled to follow. This time it is strange, I ’m going to Beijing, and she said she did n’t want to follow.

"Then don't force it, the girl grows up and doesn't like to run around," Yang Ling saw the needle and quickly dissuaded.
Zhang Tianshi said nervously: "No, no, you must take her!"
He covered his mouth and whispered to Yang Ling: "Guogong doesn't know, this girl is fooling around at home, stealing the rare medicinal materials I have finally collected, and for a few months, she left her alone at home, Don't worry about the trail! "
As soon as Yang Ling was speechless, he of course knew how crazy the girl was practicing pill, and she ate her two elixir twice. She was going to die once, and she must die. The girl practiced medicine at home, think about it ... ... to be honest, he was not at ease.
Zhengde finally set off. The brigade left Tianshi Mansion. The driver was in front of him. Zhang Tianshi stood impatiently in front of the mansion and said: "How come Missy hasn't come out yet? Butler, go and urge!"
"I'm coming, don't hurry." Zhang Fubao came out of the gate with red eyes. He was dressed in a plain green dress, with long hair and lazy shoulders, soft and light, and beautiful.
"Huh? What's wrong with your eyes?" Zhang Tianshi asked strangely.
Next to Yang Ling's scalp, he quickly turned to Du Fu, the leader of the busy Si Lijian, shouting loudly in the distance: "Duke Du, I still want to start things ..." Yang Ling said while walking away. .
The emperor's convoy was mighty, leaving the Dragon and Tiger Mountain, the Han Tianshi Mansion, and heading to the distance along the picturesque Luxi.
The convoy left Longhu Mountain and was on the move. A bright yellow robe of the inner guard hurried to Yang Ling's car and greeted: "Duke Gong, Princess Xiang has something to see Kung Gong."
"Oh?" Yang Ling lifted the curtain of the car, his eyes rolled back and said quietly: "I know, reply to the princess. I'll go right away."
Yang Ling prepared for a moment, put on a horse, and rushed to the princess ceremonial along the long convoy, asked Princess Xianger's car, and then leaned forward to say loudly: "Weichen see His Royal Highness".
"Guo Gong, please get in the car to answer," there was a crisp voice from Qing Lang in the car.
"Yes, Weichen complies with the purpose!" Yang Ling abandoned the horse to board the car, and the princess's car was also spacious outside. A curtain of bright yellow tassels hung down the door of the car, Yang Ling said in a lower body: "I don't know what your highness ordered?"
"Princess Ben came here from the south and suddenly thought of buying some special products to be sent back to Bashu. It is also considered to be filial to her children. She wanted the father-in-law to buy something for Princess Ben after returning to Nanjing. The princess lists too many things. It's inconvenient to answer outside. "
Yang Ling hesitated, looked at the two maids sitting on the left and right sides of the sedan, and then lifted the sedan curtain and walked in. I saw the princess Xianger's bright yellow palace dress, which was well-dressed, and her face was beautiful and beautiful.
Seeing Yang Ling come in. Xianger immediately put on a smiling face, pulled his long sleeves of python robe, and pulled him to the wide bright yellow Jindun seat to sit down and sat sideways. Hold his arm.
Yang Ling whispered nervously: "You are crazy, let people see."
Zhu Xianger said with a chuckle: "Who dares to look inside without permission? Well, listen to me, people dreamed of you last night."
"Is it?" Yang Ling answered, looking nervously at the left and right, pulling the curtains, moving the forward, ready to stand up at any time.
"Really." Zhu Xianger said diligently, leaning his face on his shoulder and bending a pair of crescents sweetly, whispering softly and said: "It's so beautiful, everyone dreams out laughing, hee hee, you are dreaming Is it good or bad? "
Yang Ling looked at her helplessly and whispered: "My grandmother. You are a little girl dreaming. I'm so embarrassed to come and tell me? Be careful of being ...".
"Well, people will be careful." Zhu Xiang'er said that his little buttocks squeezed beside him and put it on him more comfortably. He smiled and said: "It turns out that dreaming of men is just dreaming, hee hee, um, people dreaming."
She said quietly and carefully: "Guess what I dreamed? I dreamed that the two of us seemed to be back in Sichuan. Hey, don't look around. I dreamed that you would put me and my father under house arrest. , That big mallet will not let me go out to play, I will say cruelly, even if your grandfather is back, do not dare to be so rude, I will ask him to kneel and lick my toes.
Then, I dreamed that you really came back, and came to apologize to me, people do n’t follow, you just kneel down, really take off your boots, lick your toes, hee, itchy, itchy, people shrink Feet, you just hold on, so shameful, you are so bad, saying that it is a courtesy, but it is fun to others. "
She said, thumping sweetly on Yang Ling's chest, Yang Ling said with a depressed face: "It's you dreaming, and it's not me who really teases you, where is my bad? Then ... what happened?"
"Later? Later, when it's gone, you just keep licking, if people itch, they wake up laughing."
Yang Ling rolled her eyes: "That's it? Well ... Then I'll go back."
Zhu Xianger clasped his arms tightly and said with a small mouth: "Is this dream not fun? People still want to laugh when they think about it, telling you to listen to it, seeing you put on this stinky face, you didn't laugh at all."
Yang Ling cracked her teeth and laughed twice, saying: "This is the car, I have been in a bad time for a long time, now I have laughed too, can I go now?"
Zhu Xianger shoved him and said, "You are just perfunctory me! Wait, don't go away. I just want to ask you, what are we going to do? Brother Huang intended to give you sister Yongfu, estimate As soon as you ask him for permission, Daming Royal will give the princess to the married man. This is the first one. He is afraid that he will not let me marry you, even if he is absurd. Is there any way you can come up with it? "
When Yang Ling heard it, she said sadly, "How can you think of this method so hard, you know it's embarrassing? You are a princess, and I am also worried about what to do, no matter how I say, I am afraid that the emperor will be furious, but now this Son, did you marry someone else? "
Zhu Xianger said arrogantly: "Sure! I will castrate you before marrying someone else! Anyway, you have to find a way, and now it is difficult to have only the emperor. The past is the raw rice to cook mature rice, if you go back to Beijing, hum! Just look at it, can you pass the level of the Empress Dowager? Can you pass the level of Manchu Wenwu? I worry about you. "
Yang Ling thought about it and thought, "Yeah, I'm going out now, as long as I pass the level of the emperor, it's okay. I'll be settled when I get back to Beijing. Then no one is afraid. You let me think about it. "The Emperor's place ... The Emperor's place ..., um! I have a way, this thing has to fall on Yongfu."
Zhu Xianger said in surprise: "How to say?"
Yang Ling's ear whispered to her, and Zhu Xianger said in a daze: "Well, then, what is it?"
Yang Ling said in a row: "Is there any other way? Yongfu is gentle and knows how to do it. If we do this. She will help me, then ... she agreed, and the emperor will do it easily. ".
Zhu Xianger thought about it, nodded, and then looked at him with a smile. Whispered: "Okay, you have so many ideas. Are you afraid that I will tell the truth to Sister Yongfu in the future and let her clean up you?"
Yang Lingqian smiled and said, "That's also our family's thing. It's better than it is now. If Xiu Ning is angry, let her enforce the family law against me. The Yang family's family law is still very strict."
Zhu Xiang'er smiled giggly: "Okay, okay, when sister Yongfu orders, I'll take the sentence!"
"Really?" Yang Ling swallowed, imagining the two beautiful little princesses, unconsciously shaking.
Zhu Xiang'er bit his lip and squinted with a smile, imagining him to be in front of Sister Yongfu, holding his feet and sucking his delicate and lovely toes. Itchy for a while. The toes in the boots couldn't help hooking ...
Zhengde Yujia returned to Nanjing, and Nanjing Wenwu came to meet him. Seeing that Qian Ning was in the ranks, Yang Ling could not help but secretly sigh. This Qian Ning was too greedy to be lustful, and became the position of the ambassador of Jinyiwei Town in Nanjing. He Caibo and all of them were unkindly received in the bag, and then used their position to steal the blueprints made by the bureau of the Armament Bureau and sent them to King Ning. There is no excuse for the crime of possessing the enemy ’s weapons.
At the beginning, King Ning was arrested, holding a fantasies illusion, did not admit any lurking fellow party, he was a prince, and he could not use punishment to confess his confession. The emperor Zhengde, who was angry at the court trial, was furious and immediately beheaded him, Qian Ning said He finally let it go, but he never expected Zhengde to grab another living Ning Wang Shizi back.
Qian Ning stood in the welcoming team and watched the looks of Zhengde's group with confidence. When they saw them, Yang Ling smiled at him when he saw him. There was no strangeness in his privateness, and there was a fluke in his heart: Maybe Ning Wang traffic himself. Don't you know the secret world? This way you can sit back and relax.
However, this life is a nail in the end. He was escorted to Nanjing. I do n’t know if the emperor will execute him immediately. If not, he has to find a way to get rid of him earlier, otherwise it will be a disaster.
In his heart, he secretly raised the idea of ​​removing Ning Wang Shizi, but he did not know that Zhengde Emperor and Yang Ling had already negotiated along the way. He was already a must-arrest person, just because he was involved extensively. Before he returned to the power center, Zhengde returned I don't want to divulge the search for the bribery roster from Ning Wang Shizi.
Zhengde's return to Nanjing this time was just going to Xiaoling to resign to Taizu. Even if he had to take a boat back to Beijing from the waterway, he didn't plan to stop in Nanjing any more, but he didn't want him to return to Nanjing just now. The Folangji Kingdom in the Westland sent messengers to visit the big tomorrow son, and has now lived in the Siyi Pavilion for three days.
Zhengde remembered that after Yang Ling defeated the Fleet Fleet last year, he once said that the king of the other country was interested in trading with Daming, so he hurried to negotiate with Yang Ling. When Yang Ling heard that the emperor of the Portuguese king had arrived, he urged the emperor to give After receiving and discussing the trade issues between the two countries, Zhengde has no objection to this.
Yang Ling remembered that there was no courtesy on the knees in the West. Every time I negotiate with the West, I often get stuck in this matter, and I have to cause an uproar. This can only force the Westerners to kneel on both knees. This kind of bad practice is really undesirable. He does not want to forcefully and forcefully force him to kneel. Nine percussions.
In his view, whether Daming has a place in the minds of Westerners depends on his strength, and Daming is a big country. It should also be in the best interests of the people and the court. In the past, the foolish behavior of the tributary system to spend money to buy face should have ceased. This is the envoy of the Western country to negotiate trade issues with the DPRK, instead of paying tribute to the emperor. There is no need to make suggestions to the emperor on the grounds that Daming kneels.
What Yang Ling was most worried about was the protests of the six bureau chiefs, so he prepared a full speech early. He was not trying to fight for the rights and interests of the Western envoys, but he wanted to correct the bureaucratic style of the Ming Dynasty that did not emphasize real profits and renown its reputation. This first step was difficult. But when he stepped out, future generations had a basis for reference.
Zhu Xianger's remarks reminded him that the emperor is not in Beijing now, and he has a lot of constraints. The six Nanjing departments are not as powerful as the six Beijing departments. It is better to deal with, as long as this barrier is overcome, and there are precedents to follow, it will be convenient for the court to act in the future.
Yang Ling did not expect that the officials of the Sixth Department of Nanjing were more pragmatic than the officials of the Sixth Department of Beijing. The thing went very smoothly. Although the old men of Nanjing Liubu also raised objections, Yang Ling only gave a little explanation, and they stopped talking.
It turns out that behind these Jiangnan officials are more or less attached to many Jiangnan tycoons, so Jiangnan officials are ten times stronger than the northern officials. The reason why capitalism can take off in Western Europe is the promotion of mercantilistism, which is an important prerequisite for the development of capitalist industry.
But Daming. But it has always emphasized agriculture and suppressing business, so that land rent and usury are far more attractive than setting up business. Take the most famous local emblem merchants and Jin merchants. After they made money, they also set up land and set up pawnshops to return the huge wealth concentrated in their hands to traditional industries, hindering the possibility of the transformation of wealth into industrial capital. .
This kind of consciousness is especially serious in the north and inland, but Jiangnan is an exception. Jiangnan region is already a big merchant. Since the lifting of the ban and opening the sea, Yang Ling has relied on internal factories to start the transportation industry.兼营 various industries.
In order to form a common interest and ensure that this powerful interest group will not be abandoned by people, he attracted many relatives and relatives in the north, including the current emperor, to invest in business. In the south, he was led by Cheng Qiyun. Taking them as branches, attracted more gentry celebrities and officials.
Nowadays, this joint-stock business way of sharing benefits and co-business has finally blossomed. The officials of the Sixth Department of Nanjing have also been more or less infiltrated and influenced, changing their backward and decayed ideas.
There was an original rule in the Ming dynasty that officials with more than four ranks were not allowed to do business, but now the system is in name only. In Beijing, there is an imperial shop in Zhengde. Cheng Guogong, Wudinghou and Shouninghou are doing business. Although the officials dare not show off secretly, most of them actually run some businesses.
In Jiangnan, many officials are doing business, especially many officials with more than four grades, including officials who retired from Beijing officials, are opening a variety of shops, workshops, shipping, and land transportation. They are on the officialdom. Some students are old and have friends and colleagues, and through their penetration and influence, the Jiangnan people's thinking is becoming active, and they have begun to produce earth-shaking changes, even though this intangible thing is intangible.
Yang Ling welcomed the arrival of these Westerners very much. After accompanying them happily to see His Majesty the Emperor, he accompanied the Bishop Master and some nobles, businessmen, and soldiers of the country to tour scenic spots, watch the ceremonies of the Ming Dynasty Navy, and let They saw with their own eyes the wealth and luxury of Jinling City and the power of the Ming army.
The wealth of the Jinling City and the beauty of the ten-mile Qinhuai, these Westerners were fascinated and shouted to the paradise resort. The strong ships and cannons of the Ming Dynasty Army, armed with all firearms, let those noble generals who were still proud of themselves proudly lower their heads proudly. Yang Ling generously agreed to allow them to freely build churches and spread doctrines in such paradise, including more cities, and even make the missionaries ecstatic.
However, for many days, Yang Ling was only hospitality and welcoming the tour. He did not mention the commercial transactions between the two sides, but after a while the consciousness of Archbishop La Mario and the nobles was slightly sober. Beginning to become restless. After all, their main task is to establish economic and trade relations with the rich and powerful country of the East. They are not a group of tourists, and Yang Ling, an important minister of the East country, seems not to accept it. Can you make them anxious?
in fact. Yang Ling was also ecstatic about their timely arrival, because they brought three of the most important things that can help Daming take off, but now it is clear that they have not realized it, then Yang Ling does not have to be so urgent. So that these guests from overseas can't hold back, and take the initiative to put the bilateral trade on the agenda, you can get the greatest benefit at the negotiation table.
right now. Daming's interior has been settled, and the opposition of the government and the opposition to reform has been extremely weak. Daming can now step forward on the road to commercialization and industrialization. As long as Yang Ling consolidates this goal and catalyzes the development of this process, then he can watch the Eastern giant ship heading down the right path.
There is a basic law in the development of civilization: the law of pyramids. When the existing technology and culture spread over a large area, it will spontaneously spawn the next level of technology and culture. Then people will create new systems and consciousness based on them. Then continue to spawn new technologies and knowledge.
Yang Ling didn't want to rely on his own insights for hundreds of years of advancement to forcibly build an unsustainable sky pavilion on the basis of the Ming dynasty. He wanted Daming to move steadily and step by step toward the correct historical course.
Now this goal is being gradually achieved, but there are three things that Daming will accomplish now by himself. This requires external force.
These three things are the necessary accumulation and promotion factors to complete the development of commoditization and industrialization. One is the ideology that emphasizes business and profit, the other is currency, and the other is market demand. These three things, like the troika of economic development, are exactly what these Westerners can bring to Daming.
Deal with these Westerners and allow these Western missionaries to enter. Promptly disseminating the scientific culture, ideology and consciousness of Westerners, communicating with the East, and sharing resources can greatly promote the transformation of the feudal ideology of this ancient Eastern country for nearly a thousand years to a more advanced ideology.
Daming is currently seriously hindering the implementation of the "one-whip law", impeding the development of commercialization, and impeding the economic development of important items such as silver, which can also be achieved in this trade process. Yang Ling knew that with the vision of the Daming people, coupled with Daming's geographical location and thousands of years of cultural heritage, they allowed them to venture out and plunder some backward and weak tribes. That is unacceptable for the moral sense and historical culture of the Ming people.
The West has now begun to plunder the Americas by force. Then Daming can use its advanced production technology and manufacturing technology to carry out economic plundering of dumping trade, and a large number of real gold and silver plundered from the Americas by Western powers. Coupled with the gold and silver produced by their own mining and mining, they will be continuously exported to the East during this trade process. They will become a transit point for the global transfer of gold and silver, and the ultimate goal is China. Silver standard, and prompt Daming to use sufficient gold and silver reserves to derive currency credit
This kind of plundering has more long-term benefits than armed plundering, because in this process, Daming will take the premise of continuous large-scale export of commodities, which will greatly catalyse the development of Daming ’s industrialization and prompt more businessmen to provide the much-needed beauty of the West. Cheap oriental products and investment in the establishment of industries will prompt industrial owners to promote the advancement of industrial technology and the formation of industrial systems, making China enter the industrialized country before them.
Silver and gold in the world are constantly flowing into the pockets of the Daming Empire. The world pays hard currency to the Daming Empire to support the needs of the development of this huge empire industry, and uses their product demand to promote the development of this process. Think about it It makes people bloody.
Even better, this will definitely hit the West just beginning. It has no large-scale production capacity and sufficient advanced technology, and it cannot compete with the East. The industrialization sprout will delay their industrialization process for a hundred years or more.
It is not ruled out that some people of insight in these countries will discover this disadvantage in the future, but businessmen are profitable and people want to buy cheap and beautiful goods. Their efforts will be very limited and will be destined for the Han people in the East. Continue to maintain the world status of the strongest country, and it will, of course, continue to rule the East with the attitude of a great empire!
Yang Ling's strategy was successful. After two more days of being an elegant gentleman, Archbishop La Mario and Marquis Barmond can no longer hold back, although they are served with the delicacies of the Orientals they have never tasted before, they also feel tasteless. Too.
Archbishop La Mario exchanged a look with Marquis Barmond, and then smiled to Yang Ling, who was sitting on the throne: "Respectfully, Lord Duke, we took the expectations of His Majesty the Pope and His Majesty, and came across this ocean to the most. The beautiful Eastern Kingdom, on the one hand, is to offer our friendship to His Majesty Emperor Daming, and on the other hand, he wants to negotiate business and trade between our two countries. "
"There is ..." he licked his lips and said, "There are some ignorant and arrogant soldiers in our country who have offended the majesty of His Majesty Emperor Ming and punished by the law of Daming. I heard that they are now cold and dry, Western shepherds who are often in the yellow sands? God, at least twelve of them are nobles. We sincerely ask the emperor Daming for their forgiveness and hope that we can bring them back to our country. I want to go through this This lesson, they will no longer be rude to the invincible Daming army. "
Yang Ling waved his hand, and the voice of Silk Bamboo stopped suddenly. The two rows of enchanting and pretty dancers retreated gracefully. Yang Ling sipped his wine and smiled and said, "The Archbishop and the Lord Marquis have traveled thousands of miles and brought me the king's book of the kingdom to see me towards the emperor.
Punishment for those war criminals. Looking at the king of your country, we can end early as proof of our sincere friendship with your country. As for business, I want to know, what are your plans for your country? "
"That's it, Lord Duke," Marquis Barmond preemptively said: "You know, silk, porcelain, cotton cloth, tea, etc. in your country. They are extremely popular commodities in our country, and our country's navy is the most powerful……".
He looked at Yang Ling's eyes and added: "Oh, yes, it is the most powerful in the entire West. We have enough capacity to guarantee the safety of the ocean-going fleet and the smooth flow of Daming's countless exquisite items to the West. There is no pirate who dares to fight our ideas. We hope to be able to establish our procurement agency in the important seaports and commercial ports of Daming, and establish a unique trade relationship between our two countries. Hope to get your country ’s permission and support. "
Yang Ling chuckled: "You want to sell Eastern products to Western channels, um, appetite is great, do you eat such a big business underground?"
"Of course, our economic strength and force are sufficient to support the guarantee. As long as the generous Emperor Daming agrees, we will do the rest."
"No, no," Yang Ling shook his head, saying with no interest: "You know, the honorable Lord Marquis, the great empire of the Ming Dynasty, and we have trade relations with many neighboring countries. For Western countries that are thousands of miles away, facts There is no urgent business need in the world. His Majesty the Emperor allowed you to do business with you, hoping to use this to strengthen the exchanges between your two countries and enhance your friendship. Well! It is also for this purpose to allow your country to open churches at will. "Hundreds of rivers and rivers, with great capacity, this is a measure of the Eastern Empire."
He looked at the archbishop and the marquis who were sitting on the ground and the generals, and said with a smile: "As far as I know, England, France, Spain, the Netherlands, and Venice all have powerful fleets commendable in the West. This is their force. Guarantee, maybe none of them is enough to threaten you, but what if your monopoly promotes their alliance? "
Yang Ling smiled and said: "In fact, we have nothing to import from the West. England's textiles are the most commendable among you, but their minimum cost is still more than three times that of our Ming, Ned The quality of Lan's best cotton fabrics cannot be compared with the products of an ordinary handicraft workshop in Jiangnan.
The price is high and crude. It is conceivable that Daming's commodities will become the goods that merchants of all parties are eager to fight for. If you monopolize all the business, you will choke the entire Western commodity trading market. Our purpose is to promote mutual friendship. I do n’t want to see you igniting war in the West, and even spreading to the Indian Ocean. You ca n’t afford this.

Archbishop La Mario and Marquis Barmond looked at each other, and they didn't expect Yang Ling to know so much about them, "Damn! It must be those stupid prisoners of war, and confess everything to us!" Bamond was fierce in his heart. Swear.
The archbishop said cunningly: "Dear Duke, you should know that in fact our fleet has always been on the maritime line between the east and the west. It has its own powerful strength to compete with them. If ... your navy is willing to support us, So what are you afraid of? "
Yang Lingzheng said: "What should we do? Our emperor is not only generous, but also a benevolent monarch. He hopes to be friendly with each other in the West, instead of showing off his majesty with strong force. His majesty will not agree. Do it ".
Yang Ling would not let his family dominate, and a few more Western countries will arrive. Competing with each other is more in line with the interests of Ming Mingdi, but there is no doubt that Portugal's eagerness and initiative can win a generous gift for it. So Yang Ling immediately said: "Of course, I will not completely reject your request. You can choose the exclusive agency right of two kinds of commodities in the forests you need."
Yang Ling said slowly: "It means that these two commodities, for Western countries, we only sell to your country, and then you re-export sales, I believe that this profit is already rich in oil. Of course, In exchange for the cost. We also require that our personnel be stationed in your country and obtain legal protection and support from your country. "
Colonel Sander could n’t help but say,
Master Duke, we are coming from afar, do n’t you think this is too mean? In fact, we can get many commodities by smuggling. We are now willing to trade only with the Daming official. Your country will It ’s not harmful to your country to get a large tax. "
Yang Ling smiled faintly: "The big smuggling transaction you mentioned. Now I'm afraid it won't work. Those big smugglers are now under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty. No one dares to rely on force in legal and law-abiding operations. , Smuggled in bulk at sea. I hope you will follow the laws of our country in the future. "
He put down his wine glass and said seriously: "Otherwise, we may have to regretfully refuse to make any transactions with you and instead seek other partners. I think you may know that smugglers in your country once made a lot of money in the East, Do you know how they gain a foothold in the East and how they make money? The main thing is to deal with Dongying.
Since Dongying often violated the law of Daming Land, there was a time when they lost the right to trade directly with Daming. Although we are only across a short strait, they can only get them from the smugglers in your country. Daming items needed.
As a result, the prices there are extremely high. The market value of a pound of silk is six or two, the market value of a pound of silk is two or two, the pound of red thread is seventy two, the price of mercury is three or two, and a needle is worth seven cents of silver. Even a humble iron pot is worth one or two silver. Every year, your smugglers change their hands on Daming ’s goods, and the difference is millions of dollars.
Your country is farther away from our country. If you angered His Majesty Emperor Ming and refused to deal directly with you, then you will have to buy oriental goods from your neighboring country at a high price. Your extra cost, I think it will be even more amazing ! "
"No, no, Colonel Sander is a professional soldier. He doesn't know how to trade on the ground. With lip service, Lord Duke doesn't need to be taken seriously!" Marquis Barmond said with a smile on his face, while staring fiercely at the mouth Sander.
Archbishop La Mario asked cautiously: "Then the Duke means that we can choose two commodities and act as the sole agent of Daming throughout the West, and what about the other commodities? Can we buy them?"
"Of course, if you don't have another friendly Western country to establish an agency relationship with us, you can buy it at will", Yang Ling smiled: "In fact, you don't have to be nervous, don't forget, you are the first distinguished guests to come, so are you The first pick, so the agent product you choose will probably be the two with the highest profit, right?
Ha ha ha, if there are news of other friendly countries coming, and you are agent of a certain kind of goods, you do n’t have to worry about the need to spend a lot of money to buy, you know, you also have the items they do n’t have.
