I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

Now everything is in the past, the high-spirited father back then is now covered with gray hair, and his body is already bent.

Zhu Pangpang felt that he was very unfilial. At his age, his father should have taken care of him, but now he still worried about Daming and future generations.

"Father, it's not that my son disagrees with you going to the plateau, but because the environment is harsh and you are so old, my son is afraid that you won't be able to stand the environment there."

Zhu Zhangui had told Zhu Pangpang about the environment on the plateau, so he was very worried about his wayward father. If he ran to the plateau, he couldn't stand the environment there, and any accidents would happen.

"it's okay no problem…"

Seeing that his fat son showed signs of letting go, the old man waved quickly.

"I'll be waiting in the land of Yunnan and Guizhou. I'll let the boy do the fighting. He's young and can handle no matter how bad the environment is."

"The environment in Yunnan and Guizhou is good, and the four seasons are like spring. I will cultivate my body and mind there. I will go hunting, fishing, and wait for the good news of the little boy. I will never step on the plateau."

"real."

Zhu Pangpang is still a little worried, he knows the virtues of his father best.

It sounds good on the lips, but it's another matter when doing things.

"More real than real gold."

The old man nodded earnestly, and pointed at Zhu Zhangui and said: "You can issue an imperial edict to the brat. If I am disobedient and go to the plateau without permission, you can let him forcefully carry me back to the head office."

Seeing that the old man said so much, Zhu Pangpang knew that if he objected again, the old man would probably be angry.

He looked up at Zhu Zhangui, and after he nodded slightly, he raised his hand and took a picture of the plateau on the map.

"Okay, then let's fight, next year!"

Chapter 354: The ultimate power in the world, one empire and two alliances!

The matter of attacking the plateau was settled in this way, and there was no need to consider which part of the troops to transfer. As early as a few years ago, Jianghuai brought several legions and was arranged by Zhu Zhangui to prepare.

There is no need to worry about food supplies. Asan province transports food by land to the local area, and there is a constant flow of traffic every day. Once there is a war on the plateau, just intercept the food from there. There is no need to worry about the food problem at all.

In terms of weapons and equipment, there is no need to worry about it.

A few years ago, after fighting Jiaozhi, in order to control the southern region, the imperial court stationed heavy troops there and built an arsenal. As long as the fight was not a super war, there was enough to support the battle to attack the plateau.

There is no need to consider heavy firepower. In the complex environment of Gaoyuan, it is difficult for small-caliber artillery to pass, let alone heavy equipment such as rocket vehicles.

When the time comes to war, the tiger squatting gun grenade is probably the heavy firepower.

Now everything is ready, the only thing left is for the imperial court to issue the east wind of attack.

"Tell me, what happened to your gold?"

After talking about the attack on the plateau, the old man remembered the gold matter that Xia Yuanji Yuqian and others mentioned at the court meeting this morning.

He is not interested in fighting, and he doesn't care about the military. Zhu Pangpang, who was about to fall asleep after listening to the discussion between his grandfather and grandson, suddenly regained his energy when he heard the old man ask about gold.

The old man agrees with that idea very much. Under the influence of old Zhu, Zhu Di still has a strong sense of the old farmer's idea of ​​giving less money to the descendants of his previous life.Stuffing some snacks into his mouth, the old man agreed:

After introducing the situation in the west, Atulu nodded affectionately and solemnly to the Ottoman Empire and the Tehuyu Empire in the east.

"The main enemy you are following is not the Alliance of Allah headed by Ottoman and the Tehuyu Empire."

"Forehead!"

"There are not many gold mines in these two small continents?"

The old man froze for a moment, and pointed to the small piece of snack behind his face.

But the enrichment from the random body made this fiery heart just burnt, and then quickly went out.

In the future, Xiao Ming's navy will be dominated by steam ironclad ships, which are in great need of coal and water. It is necessary to establish naval military bases and supply bases.

In the eight-person plan, the future retreat of the Western Navy is also one of the main forces.

"That's it, are we temporarily planning to go to war with the West, so you just supported a dog here, and you want me to mess up the West first."

"Most of that part will be handed over to my father, who will be responsible for the internal use of the court. There is no afterthought, it can be invested at once, and once the money is less, it will be worth it. I am like him to disrupt our internal economic system. , Dad weighed that point."

Atulu laughed heavily.

"That's what you think!"

Nima, what is a country that is as rich as an enemy, it is called a country that is as rich as an enemy. The income earned from digging gold in a year is actually less than Xiao Ming's national tax in a year, which is really enviable.

"It is certain that if we fight with our Xiao Ming, it is easy to fight, and it will be a problem for the weak to draw another 200 million troops."

South America and North America are indeed not rich in gold mines, but compared to these useful ores, Atulu values ​​the outside climate and environment and this boundless land.

After reading the following content at a glance, Atulu suddenly slammed the door frame next to him fiercely, looked up to the sky and smiled.

10 years!

When Atulu came back, the old man glanced at the closed door.

Xiao Ming's current exchange rate of gold for silver is 1:6.5, even if it is calculated as one tael, the income from mining gold in that year is worth at most 70 taels.

"Even if we can flatten the West in one fell swoop, we must completely destroy those two alliances and lay a perfect foundation for the last general attack."

"We spent a lot of money to buy the blueprints of these ships that Zheng He sold to the West, and went back to study and modify them ourselves. We are also increasing our investment in the flintlock. I heard that the results have not been developed yet, and they are currently being installed in the army."

"According to the records of Zhu Pangpang's family, when the gold mine was first mined, the daily output was lower than that, and even in the few years, nearly 500 million taels of gold were mined!"

Looking at the two circles drawn by Ge Rongfen under the map, thinking about what the little grandson said just now, the old man was in the wrong mood at first, and gradually imitated him.

That is to treat Xiao Ming as a demon, and also an angel. If I am sure I remember correctly, the angel should not be a birdman with wings.

In the future, father Zhu Zhangui was afraid of the old man, but now it's the other way around, the old man is no longer afraid of his fat son.

"It's because these white-skinned pigs in the West trusted us and formed another alliance."

"By the way, did he arrange for a dog? Why did he let me stir up the West?"

Zhu Zhangui nodded, picked up the snack, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it carefully, and stopped thinking about how to use the money.

"Not yet, we are now discussing the issue of these two little lands, let's talk about it later." Raising his hand and knocking on the table, the old man looked at Ge Rongfen and asked: "He will talk about what he plans to do with this batch of gold now. "

After saying that, Ge Rongfen looked at the old man and said seriously: "Grandpa, Xiao Ming is not ready for an all-out war."

The old man's eyes lit up, showing an excited expression.

"So you plan, those 10 years are just a reserve for small battles. Ten years ago, you will mobilize 500 million small troops to sweep thousands of troops from a few directions with thunder."

Ge Rongfen shook his head, "That's still a lot. Due to the long mining time, the shallow gold mines have not been mined yet. Now the mines are relatively easy deep gold mines, so the output is not low."

"Hey, there are so many capable people in this world, it's you who look down on the heavenly beings."

"That guy has been entangled with us for so long, it's time to get rid of it."

Picking up the first small piece, Atulu put it behind the old man's face.

Just before leaving, Guo gave Ge Rongfen a wink.

After taking a sip of the tea poured by his grandson, the old man took out a map from the cabinet and spread it out in front of the seven of them.

"They were too surprised. Compared to Zhu Pangpang's family, the two lands explored by Zheng He are full of gold."

When I defeated the grassland back then, I seemed to have lost the goal of my struggle all of a sudden, and my whole body was so decadent.

"Yes Yes."

"Those two forces are the lords who dominate the west. Although the Tiege Rong Empire has fallen, the emaciated camel is smaller than the horse, and its own strength is comparable to that of the special country."

"Has his father gone away?"

As for how to deal with that sum of gold, I actually haven't made up my mind yet.

"To be honest, Grandpa, based on your current thinking, the Tege Rong Empire can still fight for the time being, because once it starts, it will have to fight the entire Allah Alliance, and even the Angel Alliance."

A family is doing everything, just guarding the gold mine, earning 70 taels a year, it's like he can make a fortune lying down.

"Even if there is no day in the future when we have Xiao Ming, without the money, our children and grandchildren in the previous life will be able to live in peace and stability."

"What's the matter? Is something wrong here on the west side?"

"The dog didn't contribute that gold."

Seeing the little grandson shaking his head, the old man frowned, thinking that the eldest son's wings are hardened now that he is a prince, and he listened to me.

Mu'er handed a telegram to Atulu, excitedly talking about the contents below.

"According to the information you have received, the Ottoman Empire has put their eyes on it since Zheng He's fleet appeared in the west."

"10 taels!"

Reaching out and picking up another large piece, Atulu put it behind Zhu Zhangui's face.

Originally, I thought that after defeating the prairie barbarians, there would be countries in the world that could not confront Xiao Ming.

He signaled Atulu that the old man had no idea of ​​safety, so he agreed to deal with it first, and then discuss the solution later.

"Small news from the palace, small news from the West..."

"Yes, son, hurry up and tell me, where did you get the gold. I told you, the imperial court's finances are strained right now."

The old man clicked on the lowlands, Ah Ba, the direction of the Western Regions and the direction of the grasslands.

500 million taels of gold, converted into silver, is not less than 3000 million taels, but close to 4000 million taels of silver.

"It's far away. I don't have much to do. It must be because of gold. Today, I will chat with you and me for so long."

"It's that kind of grandpa. When you came back, you received a telegram from Aden."

"We have eight grandparents, and we have no means to make money to control the court. But the descendants of the previous life must have no such means. You want to keep that money as a means for the descendants of the previous life to learn from him when they encounter financial difficulties."

"The fat fat Zhu family, who later became the treasury ministers of the bad Arab empire, learned of the location of the eight gold mines by chance, and tried their best to occupy them there."

"Why does he agree!"

"You know what he said, but the problem is that the imperial court needs real money now. Although these things are bad, they will be useless if they come back later."

Atulu smiled, "Grandpa, where are you going? You mean that money, as our family's reserve fund."

"The countries of the Angel League are all big countries, and the ability to support 80, is enough trouble for you, Xiao Ming. In addition, there is no obstruction from Ottoman and other countries behind, so if you must retreat from land and sea, for the time being You got in touch with us."

"God help you too!"

"Grandpa, he always thinks about money. Although gold and silver are bad, they will depreciate once they are missing. What is the difference between them and a pile of stones? There is even no copper value that you need soon."

"Zheng He has received news that the Ottoman Empire and the Tehu Yu Empire are uniting with Western countries to prevent you, Xiao Ming, from retreating westward."

With such a small amount of gold, the old man and Zhu Zhangui, who controlled the whole sky, took a deep breath.

After eating the snack, the old man rolled his eyes and thought of his plan, so he said that he wanted to fool the fat boy next to him away.

"You plan to divide that gold into eight parts." Reaching out to pick up a large piece, Atulu put it on the west side, "That money is still in the west, and the main purpose is to develop canals, build military bases, and Local sourcing or other uses.”

"Was that dog wasted before? You haven't instructed me to join the Alliance of Allah. If you follow his example, that dog in the future will surely bring you Xiaoming the same surprise."

I'm old, and I'm no longer the King of Yan, Zhu Di, who fought with the enemy for eight days and nights and was still full of energy.

Atulu returned a knowing look, got up and sent his father out of the door.

Atulu waved his hand to tell his father to be calm, then turned and closed the door of the war room.

Zhu Zhangui also knew that he didn't see the old man's thoughts, so he answered and left.

"Big bastard, let him see!"

The news that can make that hot-faced girl like Mu'er smile is definitely special.

Staring at the two small circles under the map, the old man was both excited and regretful.

Stretching his hand into his bosom, he took out a big notebook and put it in front of the old man and his father. Atulu flipped through the notebook while introducing it to the seven people.

The old man laughed heartily when he heard this.

Without those military bases and supply bases, these iron-clad warships would not have traveled far.

He stretched out his hand to open the door, and seeing Mu'er with a happy face, Atulu also had an inexplicable smile on his face.

But for an old man like me who is getting older and his body is getting better day by day, ten years may be forever, and I am afraid that when it comes, that ten years will come.

Picking up a pen next to him, Atulu found a map of the west and drew two circles on it.

Now that two weak enemies appeared again, the old man's fighting heart, which had not been extinguished long ago, was burning again.

As for the chance of a comeback, Atulu has always considered it.

Atulu's expression was surprised at first, and then he was happy, and then he picked up the telegram and observed it carefully.
