Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 737

"Everyone is equal before the law... Haha, this is ridiculous."

In the Kaicheng Hou Mansion, Guo Yu explained the details of the presentation one by one like a parrot, and the eyes of Wang Kai and others from the Charity and Literature Society lit up.These two paths can be said to be right for their appetite.

Wang Kai is not short of money, and the other people's Chinese is not authentic enough, but they speak Zhao and Song Mandarin, which is obviously not a problem.And if you know a lot about classics, but your skills are lacking, why don't you become a student?

It is that "everyone is equal" seems too absurd and ridiculous.

Immediately, someone mentioned Cao Zheng's case. "When the swordsman beat Liang Shan to death with a stick, he not only received some punishment in name, but after he was released, who knew what he was doing? Last year, Emperor Qi conferred a large number of ministers, and Cao Zheng and Yang Lin, Yan Qing, and Du Xing were all granted the title of Founding Son. They were especially taller than Zhu Fu, Wang Dingliu, Zhang San, Li Si, etc." Although there are still legends in Yidu to this day, the Smiling Tiger only granted the title of Founding Man, because His elder brother Zhu Gui was made the Earl of the founding of the country, and Zhu Fu's credit was transferred to Zhu Gui.And Cao Zheng was named the founder of the country because of the care of his master Lin Chong.

But no matter what, Cao Zheng, who beat innocent people to death with a stick, is very unhappy now that he has achieved great success.How many people still remember the gentry who died unjustly?
Everyone ignores the sea merchants.None of Wang Kai and his party liked them.These people are like Guo Yu, facing those naturalized people, each of them has a mysterious sense of arrogance in their hearts.Unconsciously, the difference between myself and the latter is only fifty steps and a hundred steps.

Perhaps this ridiculous 'arrogance' is just a mental stress reliever that Wang Kai and the others created for themselves.When people are sad, if they can find a place that is more sad, and compare them to produce happiness, it is also a way of self-relieving, isn't it?

No one knows anyway.

At least, those sea merchants didn't know about it at all, otherwise, all of them wouldn't have prepared a generous gift and came to meet Wang Kai immediately after they got a piece of household registration in their hands.

The latter opened his mouth in surprise when he saw the famous post.

This is really strange.

What is the relationship between Wang Kai and those naturalized sea merchants?

"How could these shameless businessmen have the face to ask to see Lord Hou?" Guo Yu was furious.

Although Wang Kai is young, he has a special status, which represents not only the Kaicheng Marquis of Daqi in the Central Plains, but also the face of Goryeo.

A shameless sea merchant, with the smell of copper all over his body, even if he has been naturalized, he is still just an ordinary person.His status is far from Wang Kai's, so why did he suddenly catch up with him?

"These people are all villains. However, they dare to travel thousands of miles across the ocean to pursue wealth and profit. How can we despise them? Such people are far away. The Marquis has just arrived in Yidu, and his foundation is not stable. He can easily make enemies. It is not This is a foolproof strategy." Hu Zongdan hurriedly advised.Then he twirled his beard, frowned and thought hard, but he couldn't figure it out. "Let Hu go and see that person on behalf of the Marquis."

It is appropriate to deal with it this way.Anyway, Hu Zongdan will be in charge of Wang Kai in the future.

This person went to meet the visitor with confusion, but there was no time for two cups of tea, so Hu Zongdan took the visitor to the inner study to meet Wang Kai in a hurry.Then Wang Kai sent people to call all the people around him.

The location is still the inner study room.It is said to be a study here, but it is actually a small courtyard. The inside is by no means just for reading and writing to cultivate sentiment. There are also inner bedrooms for rest, flower halls and small flower halls for meeting guests.And even the flower hall with a small character in front of its name would not be smaller than the three suites in later generations.

"Look, everyone, this is the South China Sea, also known as Wanli Stone Pond. These black dots represent islands, and these dark shadows represent archipelagos."

Ketanagara held the Buddhist beads in his hand and stabilized his mind. Success or failure depends on his next performance.

A group of Goryeo figures on the other side looked at the five-foot-square map, and their hearts were shocked, as if they saw a new world.Living on the peninsula, they have only seen the western mainland and the eastern Japanese since ancient times.Once upon a time did you look south?

"The navy of the imperial court is the best in the world. The huge ships are like a city, which is daunting. The artillery is sharp, and it is invincible. Today, we only fight in South Vietnam. Wouldn't it be a pity that the artifact will be empty after the thief is defeated?"

"I wait for the sea merchants to drink the wind and drink the rain and walk through the turbulent waves. Although the profits are huge, it is also dangerous. There are not only storms and waves on the sea that harm people, but there are also as many thieves and bandits that kill and cross." Although Ketanagala When encountering pirates, most of them can win or have fought.And for captured pirates, he'd crush them like bugs!
Ketanagara is an old expert in running the sea, and he definitely did not exaggerate the chaos at sea.Moreover, Nanyang is already very chaotic, but after leaving Sanfoqi and heading west, after entering the Zhuluo Sea, the order on the sea will only become more chaotic.Not to mention those Indian pirates, but the navy of Zhuluo Kingdom, as long as the opportunity comes, they will not refuse to engage in pirate business.

The Chola Sea is the Bay of Bengal in later generations. The reason why it is called the "Chola Sea" by Ketanagala is because the current sea area belongs to an empire called "Chola".

In "Da Tang Western Regions" written by Master Xuanzang, Zhu Luo is called "Zhu chariot".Some people may feel a sense of familiarity when they see the following words.

In the eighth year of Song Zhenzong's Dazhong Xiangfu, Luocha Luocha, the king of Zhuan, sent envoys to pay tribute.During the Zhao and Song dynasties, there were many communications between Zhuchaan and China. "Lingwai Daida" and "Zhufan Zhi" each have special articles.To get to Zhunian from China, you can take a sea ship from Quanzhou, take the route Gulin, and then transfer to a small boat to get to Zhunian country; you can also go via Bagan.Bagan is Myanmar.

As an ancient country that existed for thousands of years, Chola originated at the southern tip of the Indian continent, that is, at the tip of the triangle.

Over the course of thousands of years, the rulers of the Chola Empire conquered large areas in the southern part of the Indian peninsula, annexed Ceylon, occupied the Maldives, and even successfully invaded the Malay Archipelago.At the same time, they also went straight north along the east coast of the Indian subcontinent, and their territory extended to the later Bengal.

At this time, although the peak of the Zhuluo Empire is gone, it is still in the prosperous period of this ancient country.

In the third year of Song Xining, Zhu Luo was assassinated in the civil strife in Adie Rajendra Chu Luo, and Rajaraja Nalande, who kept the blood of the Zhu Luo royal family, took the throne. The Louqi Dynasty was merged, also known as the Chola-Chalouqi Kingdom.Rajaraja Narandra, that is, Kurutongga Chola I, reigned for 50 years, consolidating the kingship shaken by civil strife, and also stabilizing the territory of the empire.

The current successor is Virama Chola, who has just ascended the throne a few years ago, but this change of throne is a transfer of power. The political situation of the Chola Empire is stable, and the country is naturally still strong.

Keta Nagara had stopped heading west for a long time. After settling down in China, he no longer sailed to India.But he will always remember the Chola navy in his heart.They were the ones who made Ketanagala and even his family almost destroyed in the first place.

"You said you wanted to hire the imperial navy to escort you while you waited for the maritime merchants?"

Hu Zongdan was about to doubt his ears.Looking at Ketanagara in shock, who gave him the courage to open his mouth like this?
Ketanagara smiled. "Master Hou, do you know the story of the Nanyang navy in the waters of eastern Guangdong?" Wasn't Sanruan dominating Fujian and Guangdong at the beginning, doing such a business?
All he is asking for now is for the navy to expand its range.

In the eyes of Ketanagara, this is a matter of time.Such a powerful and unparalleled fleet, is China really going to waste it?They could clearly taste the fishy smell.

Taktanagara is going to take the lead now!When things are done, when the success is manifested, then he will be the hero.

"I don't dare to talk nonsense, so I just talk about this ten thousand li stone pond. If the imperial court navy can keep the ships passing through it from harming no one, a few of them will earn tens of millions of dollars every year."

As the sea ships sailed in and out, which one did not have hundreds of thousands of goods on board?

Porcelain, pottery, silk, cloth, books, paper, and lacquerware, as well as white sugar and wine, are sold overseas very well.The imperial court navy charged tens of thousands of protection fees for one ship, even three to five thousand for one ship, and they didn't know how much they would earn in a year.

Ketanagara is from Guangzhou, and he knows how much China has stimulated the maritime merchants after the change of the maritime trade policy.Let alone Guangzhou, the number of businessmen from Old Port doubled last year.

In the previous Sino-foreign trade, imports imported into China had to be "extracted" (taxed) and "bought" (purchased) by the local shipping department in accordance with regulations.Extraction is taxation; bomai means that the government buys most of the imported goods at a low price, and then organizes and transports the goods, and the officials are in charge of their circulation and transactions.

The Zhao Song government implemented a ban on the main part of overseas imported goods, that is, the government monopolized the transportation and sales of most imported goods in order to obtain huge profits.The remaining small portion of imported goods are sold and traded by Chinese and foreign traders themselves.

But now there are no such restrictions at all.

Such a completely free trade will bring huge benefits to Ketanagala.His income last year had at least doubled compared to before.

In the face of real benefits, Ketanagara has great confidence in the future of China's maritime trade.Therefore, he hoped that the Chinese naval warships could cover the entire Wanli Stone Pond, so that in his opinion, those powerful Chinese warships would not be wasted in vain.

As for whether doing so will pose a threat to the Sanfoqi Kingdom, the ruler of the sea in Nanyang, that is what Ketanagala doesn't care about.

Because the Three Buddhas Qi Kingdom does not belong to Ketanagala.

Now he is more willing to work hard so that everyone in his family can be naturalized in China.

Ketanagara was also very angry with Guo Yu's actions that day, but after he knew Guo Yu's identity, Ketanagara forgot all the unhappiness.

Because Guo Yu's image has changed at this moment.He represented not only himself, but also Wang Kai.Although the identity of the Marquis of Kaesong is a bit embarrassing, he is the most powerful person that Ketanagala can come into contact with, and the person closest to the political center of China.

If Wang Kai still can't fulfill his wish, he can only return to Guangzhou to realize his intention.Starting from the Nanyang Navy, I hope he can catch up by then and get a share of the pie.

"You want me to introduce you to His Majesty the Emperor?" Wang Kai withdrew his gaze from staring at the map.

Now he naturally needs to hibernate, but now he doesn't need to push the credit that came to his door.

Wang Kai was not very old, but his mind was very smart. He took a deep look at Ketanagara. There must be a lot of news about this person.But this should be his entry level, but Wang Kai doesn't need to be serious here.
