Royal Gold Magistrate

The same weight of silk can be exchanged for the same weight of gold!

This is faster than stealing money

All the officials were overjoyed, especially Xu Wenshu, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, whose lips were already laughing so hard that his ears flew to his ears!

Pick it up!Really paid for it!

If such a good thing catches up with his tenure, how should future generations treat him?

Isn't this appropriate to leave a name in history?

Emperor Jing was also amazed: "my country's silk has always been sought after by other countries, but Westerners are so fanatical?"

Fangzheng smiled and said: "Your Majesty, rare things are valuable. They have never seen it before, and they are rushing to buy it. Good things are recognized wherever they go."

Lai Gou'er said: "That's right, the nobles in Ganan not only don't think it's expensive, but also think they have earned it. There is also porcelain, which is also sought after by the nobles in the palace in Ganan. Overseas countries all say that my products are exquisite in craftsmanship and rich in heritage. Profound and extraordinary."

"In addition, in order to show friendship to our country, many countries have specially allocated a piece of land as a resting place for our military and civilians in Dajing."

Lai Gou'er continued to slide his finger on the picture: "These are the ports we found along the coast, and some of them are undeveloped natural harbors discovered by the Dajing fleet. Mr. Zheng has already settled in some small countries after exchanging gold and silver. The acquisition of these ports will serve as a transit point for our Grand Scenic Water Division in the future.”

Emperor Jing narrowed his eyes when he smiled, and gave Zheng Hui an appreciative glance.

This matter is really beautiful, which is equivalent to expanding the territory to some extent!

"Then what do these red marks mean?" Emperor Jing asked, pointing to a red symbol on the map that resembled a knife.

Lai Gou'er said: "Your Majesty, not all the countries we pass through are as friendly as Ganan. The places marked in red represent areas with strong folk customs or special customs. Our fleet has had some incidents with them. conflict."

"These people are arrogant and difficult to communicate with. They once took the initiative to attack our Dajing fleet in an attempt to snatch supplies, but our Dajing Navy fought hard and finally demanded compensation and established diplomatic relations with them peacefully."

"Although this journey took a lot of time, all the countries I passed along the way praised me for being blessed by the common people and spreading benevolence!"

Emperor Jing's eyebrows were beaming, and the joy was already overflowing: "Okay, well done, let's continue."

"The end point of the fleet is at Fika. We originally planned to continue to explore the western continent after arriving at Fika. However, after sailing on the sea for so long, all the officers and men on board knew that they had reached their target. Unable to continue exploring. So I can only rest and record in Feika and return to Dajing.”

Lai Gou'er hesitated for a moment, then looked at Fang Zhengyi.

I don't know if it's appropriate to talk about the conflict between Fika and the church here.

It would be bad if you speak out to His Majesty and make His Majesty angry.

But seeing Fangzheng nod, Lai Gou'er plucked up his courage and said: "Your Majesty, I have been inquiring among the people, and all the western countries west of Fika respect the Taifu Church. After we landed, there was a conflict with the church. This is why we One of the reasons for the quick return."

Emperor Jing froze for a moment: "What happened?"

"When the fleet left, their king was already seriously ill. Our crew kindly gave some pointers, which conflicted with their church customs. They wanted to execute my Dajing crew, so there was a conflict."

The ministers were in an uproar.

"What a savage force this church is. It's ridiculous to kill people just by saying two words. Don't they have a court to uphold justice?" Someone asked loudly.

Fangzheng replied, "It's the foreign monk who controls the government!"

The officials suddenly realized.

The monks messed up the government, I understand, there is still history in this regard.

Emperor Jing sneered: "Western courts are incompetent, and it's ridiculous to let monks control the government."

Lai Gou'er said cautiously: "Yes, according to my observation, there are so many countries in the West, and it may be difficult to start the establishment of trade and diplomatic relations after Taifujiao is offended."

Emperor Jing smiled and said: "You have already done a good job, so there is no need to worry about this matter. So, besides this, are there other gains?"

With Dajing's current strength, Emperor Jing really didn't take this kind of thing to heart.

Hearing that he would continue to repay the merits, Lai Gou'er looked at Zheng Hui and said, "I only know more about the map, and Mr. Zheng did the rest himself."

Zheng Hui was greatly moved when he heard this.

He is extremely optimistic about Lai Gou'er's performance along the way, and after so many years of tacit understanding, he has a deep relationship.

So now that he has such a good opportunity, he is willing to let Lai Gouer perform. On the other hand, he has been bearish on many things in the ups and downs along the way.

Some things just go with the flow.

But unexpectedly, Lai Gou'er pushed back the opportunity again, so Zheng Hui could only step forward and say, "Return to Your Majesty, in addition, we returned from Feika and visited the countries along the way again, and there are 23 countries willing to send envoys." The delegation came to see His Majesty in Dajing. In the end, the gold, silver and treasures brought back by the fleet totaled more than 6305 million taels of silver."

"..."

Emperor Jing was dizzy and murmured, "How much?"

"A total of about 6305 million taels of silver, Your Majesty." Zheng Hui said seriously.

The officials were also stupid.

What is the concept of 6305 million taels?Seven or eight years ago, Dajing's annual income was only a little over 2000 million!

The total cost of the sea-opening fleet is only around one million taels. This time, in addition to buying land overseas and promoting the country's prestige, it also brought back 600 million taels of silver!

A fleet can be as rich as a country! ?

My goodness...the world has really changed, and people don't recognize it at all.

Xu Wenshu trembled even more excitedly, all the creases on his old face stretched out!

Rich!Rich!

If it goes into the national treasury, there is nothing to worry about in the future, and whoever wants the money can just approve it.

Can this official of the Ministry of Households be so easy one day?

Moreover, this is still a preliminary exploration of the west. Now that the route is clear, if more fleets are sent to sea in the future, wouldn't it be worth tens of millions of taels of silver every year for the sea trade alone? !

The more Xu Wenshu thought about it, the more excited he became, and he kept swallowing.

If the entire Western world is thoroughly explored... My God, won't the future treasury revenue be counted in tens of thousands of taels?

Can annual revenue still be counted in units of [-] million? !An unprecedented miracle!

Everyone probably had the same thought, and they all turned to Fang Zhengyi as they thought about it.

It's him!

If he hadn't been tossing Kaihai endlessly back then, would Dajing be where he is today?

Fuck!This kid's luck is so good... This is an unworldly feat, an unworldly feat!

The officials were full of envy.

At this moment, the most eye-catching person in the hall lowered his head, silently calculating in his heart.

So much money has flowed in... The flood is flooding, and the money is running out, so I have to find a way to invest more!
