At the Xingguo Marquis Mansion, Han Cheng was stunned when he saw the message that suddenly appeared on the system.

He really didn't expect that it would come so soon this time.

In such a short time, another time traveler has arrived.

What’s even more unexpected is that the person who came was Liu Bei.

Han Cheng was naturally familiar with Liu Bei.

After all, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms directly increased the popularity of the Three Kingdoms.

It far exceeds many turbulent times such as the end of the Sui Dynasty, the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the end of the Sui Dynasty, and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

Coupled with the various Three Kingdoms games that followed, and the ones that have been played until now, many people still miss them and will take them out to reminisce from time to time, or watch various spoofs of the old Three Kingdoms TV series.

It can be said that its popularity has remained high for a long time.

Han Cheng began to understand history through the Four Great Classical Novels.

The first one I watched was the Three Kingdoms.

Later, as I grew older, I learned more about the Three Kingdoms from other materials.

At that time, the Three Kingdoms memes were endless and continued to be popular.

For example, General Xing Daorong of Lingling and General Pan Feng of Wushuang.

For example, if you are not good at geography, you will always get lost, and you will be like Guan Gong who rode alone for thousands of miles...

What is more famous is the white-haired man, the old thief with a gray beard, how dare you talk here... I have never seen such a shameless person...

In addition, there are also farting in the water, three slaves...

From the density of these memes, you can see how popular they are.

How many men don’t have a dream of being a martial artist or a hero?

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms gives people plenty of room for imagination.

Guan Yu was a man of great righteousness. He flooded seven armies with water and took the head of a general in the midst of thousands of soldiers as easily as taking something from a bag.

Changpo killed Zhao Zilong, a brave man, who went in and out seven times.

Ma Chao, the Xiliang King, the veteran Huang Zhong, Lu Bu, the Marquis of Wen... Zhang Liao, who single-handedly created the famous Sun Quan inequality of 800 being greater than 100,000...

Even people who don't know much about history can name some characters when talking about the Three Kingdoms.

In addition to these brave generals, there is also the wise and cunning Prime Minister Zhuge.

The treacherous boss Cao who killed three wise men with one shot, and the benevolent Liu Bei, the handsome Zhou Lang with a feather fan and a scarf...

Now, suddenly Uncle Liu came here.

This was truly a huge surprise for him.

At the same time, he also thought of the Longzhong Plan to divide the world into three parts, and the shameless sneak attack by the Jiangdong rats, which led to Guan Yu's failure and defeat in Maicheng, and eventually his death.

Send a general to lead the troops of Jingzhou so that they cannot reappear... From then on, Yanhan will never rise again...

When I first read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after seeing Guan Gong’s defeat at Maicheng, Han Cheng stopped reading for a long time.

Later I saw the Autumn Wind at Wuzhangyuan, which made me feel even more depressed.

He closed the book again and didn't open it again for a long time.

It wasn’t until about a year later that I finished reading the remaining chapters…

Now, Uncle Liu Bei is about to arrive, but no one knows when he will arrive.

Are you studying in Luoyang and still selling straw sandals?

He had just been appointed as the governor of Xuzhou.

Or was it Lu Bu who stole the house?

Or are you still drinking green plum wine with Cao Cao?

Or has he already arrived in Xinye?

Or does he want to avenge his brother and raise an army to Yiling?

Or maybe entrust your son to the care of others directly in Baidi City?

If he had arrived earlier, I would have told him about the future direction of historical development.

So I wonder if Liu Bei and his men can rewrite their fate?

The three restorations of Yan and Han were achieved, and Jingzhou was no longer attacked by the rats, and there was no defeat at Maicheng.

Zhang Fei was no longer beheaded by villains and died miserably.

There would not be a fire in Yiling that destroyed the foundation of Shu Han, and there would not be an autumn wind at Wuzhangyuan. Heaven, how could you be so unkind to me...

There will no longer be the Three Kingdoms returning to the Jin Dynasty, and there will no longer be the infuriating Five Barbarians Invading China.

For a moment... Han Cheng thought a lot here, and his thoughts were confused.

It would be great if all these could be made up for.

Knowing more about the history of the Three Kingdoms period, the demise of Shu Han is always so sad and regrettable.

If these can be changed, perhaps it can develop to a very different point...

After thinking about it for a while, Han Cheng prepared to go to Zhu Yuanzhang and tell him about this.

Of course, there is another reason besides this, which is to dig up more records about the Three Kingdoms period from Lao Zhu and take a good look at more detailed news about the Three Kingdoms.

Fortunately, I told Liu Bei the story next.

……

"Father, the next person to come has been determined."

On the Wuying Palace side, Han Cheng walked straight over and said to Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was immediately filled with joy.

Very interested.

"Who? The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, or the emperor of the Qing Dynasty? Or Emperor Taizong of Tang, or Emperor Wu of Han? The First Emperor?"

Zhu Yuanzhang named a series of people.

It would be best if the emperors of the Qing Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty came.

If it were someone else, it would be just as good.

He was very interested in telling Li Shimin about the many things that happened after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.

If Li Shimin knew, his crown prince would rebel, Li Tai... and eventually the youngest Li Zhi became the emperor.

And Li Zhi married his stepmother.

His own daughter-in-law became his son's daughter-in-law.

More importantly, his wife and daughter-in-law later became an empress and seized the throne.

And the An-Shi Rebellion that followed...

There are also many things such as the Xuanwu Gate inheritance law that runs through almost the entire Tang Dynasty.

What would be Emperor Taizong of Tang’s reaction?
Also, if the First Emperor had known about this, the Qin Dynasty that he had worked so hard to build would have collapsed not long after his death.

The Qin Dynasty, which he wanted to pass down through the ages, perished in the second generation.

Zhao Gao called a horse a deer, tampered with the imperial edict, killed Fusu, and put Hu Hai in power.

After Hu Hai came to power, in order to ensure the stability of his throne, he killed all of his brothers.

What will be the reaction?
Of course, the most important thing is not to see their reactions.

Instead, I want to see them make up for their regrets after they return.

Let the dynasty it belongs to enter a new chapter.

Really!

Old Zhu is such a serious person. He never likes to see others feel bad after learning about something.

"Father, neither."

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked a little disappointed. If it wasn’t for them, it would have been a bit boring.

At the same time, there is also some curiosity.

If it's not them, then who else could it be?

"It's Uncle Liu, Emperor Zhaolie of Han, Liu Bei."

Liu Bei?

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just thought it was boring, suddenly changed his mind.

What Emperor Zhaolie of Han said is also true.

This time, perhaps we can make up for some of the regrets.

"When will he arrive?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"A month later."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"When that time comes, we will definitely not be absent."

Then Han Chengju told Zhu Yuanzhang that he wanted to find some historical materials about the Three Kingdoms period.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately agreed and arranged for relevant people to take Han Cheng to see it.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty still had a large collection of books.

And many of them have been sorted into different categories.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang had a broad mind and was prepared to surpass the Han and Tang dynasties.

Then martial arts, medical system, wealth and other aspects alone are not enough.

We must also pay attention to culture.

There is no chance that the Yongle Encyclopedia will be published, as it will become the Hongwu Encyclopedia.

The Hongwu Ceremony has not yet been officially started.

But the schedule was also mentioned.

Some preliminary preparations have been made.

Under the guidance of relevant personnel, Han Cheng soon arrived at the relevant book collection place and discovered a vast amount of books.

There are many ancient scrolls there.

There are also many bamboo and wooden tablets.

These are cultural treasures.

While flipping through the pages, Han Cheng also saw some things that he had never known about before.

This is partly because he himself is not a professional scholar.

In later generations, the number of readers was not that large.

Another aspect is that during the Qing Dynasty, when the Siku Quanshu was compiled, half of it was burned and the other half was compiled.

Many precious things have been lost in the mist of history, which is truly a pity.

As for later times, there were some turmoil and many treasures were snatched away by the great powers.

Ended up in a barbarian land.

Until now, they have been openly exhibited by those people and are not allowed to return home...

Han Cheng's mood was not very good.

However, now that he has come to the Ming Dynasty, he must achieve something.

Don't let this happen again.

From now on, the great voyages of discovery will be initiated by the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty will be the real sun that never sets!
After all, the name of Ming Dynasty has both sun and moon.

Wherever the sun and the moon shine, and wherever the rivers flow, all of this is Han territory!

……

Soon, half a month later, the Maritime Customs fleet, returning with a full load, docked at the port in Guangzhou.

Start selling the goods you brought back.

And prepare new goods to start the second trip of foreign trade.

After this trial, the Maritime Customs' second voyage fleet will be larger and carry more cargo.

At the same time, more people need to participate...

In addition to opening a port of the Maritime Customs in Guangzhou, a port was also opened in Chongming.

In the future, Hangzhou and other places will also open them one after another.

These are now mainly under the charge of Jin Wang Zhu Gang.

While doing so, a lot of money was sent up the river to Yingtian Prefecture by some of the Maritime Customs ships...

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't stop smiling when he saw the huge amount of money sent to him.

It turns out that my good son-in-law did not lie to me!
There are indeed huge profits overseas.

This was just a small test, but it immediately brought in a profit of 300,000 strings of cash.

This is not all, but what is left after a large part of the profits was used as new capital to expand the business of the Maritime Customs.

Overseas is also a huge treasure trove.

People can gain huge benefits from it.

It’s a pity that this treasure trove was illegally occupied by those people before.

Keep yourself in the dark.

But it's fine now.

Now these are all yours!

In the future, the scale of this Maritime Customs will be further expanded.

You will earn more money

Once you have money, many things will be easier to handle.

At the same time, it is also necessary to attack Japan.

After two more years of development at most, you can go there.

My fourth child has been thinking about this all the time!

Money is a person's courage.

This sentence not only applies to ordinary people, but also to the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

……

"Xiaocheng, there are some barbarians outside who also want to come and do business with us. What do you think about this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Han Cheng and asked.

By the way, before this, there were also overseas merchants who came to the Ming Dynasty to do business.

However, all of these were secretly received by the pirates and those who were involved in smuggling in Jiangnan and other places.

Zhu Yuanzhang began to pay attention to the sea and cleared out these parasites with heavy blows.

Today, it is the world of the Maritime Customs.

It would be impossible for these people to conduct transactions secretly as they did before.

Will be defeated by the powerful Ming Navy.

So, I started to talk to the Maritime Customs about this matter.

Prince of Jin Zhu Gang sent this news to the capital and asked Zhu Yuanzhang to make a decision.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately called Han Cheng to ask about it.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang revealed all the spoilers through Han Cheng, plus some things that happened after Han Cheng came here.

I have realized that I am really not good at business and other things.

It is better to talk less and listen more to the opinions of your son-in-law.

This is the safest way.

Han Cheng thought for a moment and said, “Since they are willing to come, then of course they are welcome.

Trade is about exchanging what you have.

Only by interacting with each other can we prosper more..."

"Then...will they steal the business from the Maritime Customs?"

This is what Zhu Yuanzhang cares most about.

Han Cheng shook his head and said, "It's not like we can steal much.

On the contrary, the benefits they bring are even more substantial.

However, since you are here to conduct business in Ming Dynasty, you must follow the rules of Ming Dynasty.

First of all, we don’t recognize the money from them.

If they want to come to Ming Dynasty to trade, they can use gold coins, silver coins, or other currencies.

Let’s first exchange them all for Ming Dynasty’s treasure notes.

You can only use Ming Baochao to trade and purchase goods.

At the same time, there also needs to be some restrictions on the types of transactions.

For example, artillery, weapons and many other sensitive things are definitely not allowed.

Father, you just need to consider these things yourself.

Of course, in addition to these, there is one more that is the most important.

That is, foreign people who come to our side to trade must carry at least half of their cargoes of rice and other food on their ships.

Now that we are here, we can't let them travel in vain.

We will purchase it at a normal price.”

Han Cheng made this suggestion because there is plenty of food in the southeast.

But now there is not enough food in the Ming Dynasty.

People are still starving to death.

Especially when there is a famine.

Therefore, it is necessary to bring the grain from the southeast to Ming Dynasty.

However, if we purchase grain from there by sea and have the people of the Ming Dynasty transport and sell it.

The profits are simply too low.

There is even the possibility of losing money.

No businessman would be willing to do that.

Now those foreigners want to come to Ming Dynasty to do business.

It would be better to let them handle this matter.

If we don't fleece them, whose will we fleece?

After listening to Han Cheng's analysis and understanding the relationship here.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, Xiaocheng, let's do as you say.

Your idea is right.

I knew it, so I had to ask you about this.

If we were asked to consider this, we wouldn't be able to consider it so comprehensively.

It's you, Xiaocheng, who is cunning."

Han Cheng's face turned a little dark when he heard this.

Is there anyone who praises others like this?
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed out loud...

……

Inside Han Cheng's study, a ray of light flashed, and a man with ears hanging down to his shoulders appeared... (End of this chapter)
