Chapter 195 The strange Zhu Xi, changes in southern Xinjiang

"Maybe Yang Zai can succeed."

After leaving the court.

In the British palace, Zhu Biao said to Xiao Han.

"OK."

"This guy may not come from a navy family, but luck is sometimes a part of strength."

Xiao Han nodded slightly.

"Hahaha!"

"Sometimes I really feel like you've really let people forget you."

Zhu Biao laughed.

"That's what I told you, but if you don't believe it, what can I do?"

Xiao Han spread his hands.

"Your Highness, His Highness the King of Qin is outside asking for an audience."

While the two were talking, Ruoyi walked up and spoke to Xiao Han.

"Ok?"

"This kid is like a boring gourd on weekdays. He ignores everyone every day. Why did he suddenly want to come to me?"

"Let him in."

Xiao Han was surprised and said.

"it is good."

Ruoyi nodded and immediately went to invite Zhu Ping.

"Brother."

"Well, eldest brother is here too."

Zhu Xi saw Xiao Han and Zhu Biao speaking.

"You boy, why are you acting weird today?"

"Why are you sneaking around here?"

Xiao Han glanced at Zhu Xi.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"How can there be such a thing? Isn't it because my brother and eldest brother are so busy with their daily work that they can't bear to be disturbed?"

"I have a lot of free time here today to see my brother and eldest brother, so now I want to treat my brother and eldest brother to a meal alone?"

Zhu Xi chuckled.

"Why do you kid suddenly have such thoughts?"

"Didn't you just eat it two days ago?"

"By the way, I saw you seemed very silent in the past two days, and you drank too much from time to time. What happened?"

Zhu Biao asked Zhu Xi.

"Ah."

"And you actually came here by yourself, without even bringing Miss Wang with you."

Xiao Han also said.

"What are you taking her for?"

"She's not even married yet when our brothers are having a party, so what qualifications does she have to attend?"

As soon as he heard Xiao Han mention Wang Yuemin, Zhu Xi almost jumped up on the spot like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

Xiao Han:? ? ?

Zhu Biao:? ? ?

"No, are you two really okay?"

"Why is there such a big reaction?"

"Fighting again?"

Zhu Biao frowned.

"No, we are...fine."

"By the way, I have prepared wine and food at Prince Qin's Mansion. Please remember to come tonight, brother and eldest brother."

Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, continued to speak, and then ran away as if running away.

"What's going on with this kid?"

Zhu Biao was confused.

"how could I know?"

"We'll find out if we go take a look at it tonight."

Xiao Han rolled his eyes.

"Don't you have someone to count?"

"Looking for someone to do the math?"

Zhu Biao chuckled.

But there is no knot in his heart. In Zhu Biao's view, Zhu Feng's behavior is nothing more than two situations. First, he had a quarrel with Wang Yuemin and wanted to drink with him and Xiao Han to relieve his worries. Second, he stabbed him outside. What a waste, he was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would beat him.

A couple, and of course a third, all of the above.

"Fuck off!"

"If you go and take a look tonight, you will know what the boy is up to. If you have time to figure it out, we will both be there."

Xiao Han snorted.

"Your Highness."

"Secret report from Southern Xinjiang."

At this time, Jiang You suddenly stepped forward and handed a secret report to Xiao Han.

Xiao Han opened the secret report and read it carefully, his expression suddenly changed slightly.

"What happened?"

"That would surprise even you."

Zhu Biao looked at the change in Xiao Han's expression and couldn't help but say.

"Do you still remember the businessman who escaped our control before?"

Xiao Han narrowed his eyes slightly.

"You mean, the businessman named Wan Shanhou?"

Zhu Biaofa asked.

"Ah."

"During this period, a conflict broke out between Ava and Bago. Wan Shanhou led his team of bodyguards to make a splash on the battlefield. He was made a duke by the emperor of Ava, and his fiefdom was on the border between the two countries."

"This is nothing, but in addition to these, Queen Wan Shan also asked Emperor Ava for a free commercial concession."

"Within Ava, Wanshanhou can engage in any industry and only need to pay half of the tax."

Xiao Han said.

"Then what does Emperor Ava think?"

"By doing this, doesn't he give Wan Shanhou a gold medal to avoid death and suck blood from Ava at will?"

Zhu Biao said in shock.

"He's afraid he's planning to kill someone with a borrowed knife."

"The story of traveling all the way after Wanshan has probably spread to Ava."

"His military level may not be on the stage in our Ming Dynasty. He is the kind of businessman who becomes a monk halfway and commands a small army."

"But such capabilities are actually not low compared to small neighboring countries."

"But they were also worried that Wanshanhou could not stop the enemy, so after sealing Wanshanhou between the two countries, they tried hard to feed him some more."

"However, Emperor Ava doesn't know what kind of monster his stupid move will unleash."

Xiao Han said coldly.

"Is this Queen of Wanshan so powerful?"

"Could he be able to defeat both countries?"

Zhu Biao said in shock.

"He will definitely not be able to defeat both countries."

"But I sent someone to investigate Wan Shanhou's resume. This guy is an extremely shrewd businessman."

"More importantly, he is very similar to me. With three hundred and sixty lines, there is no business that he does not do."

"Awa gave him such power, and also gave him a semi-independent fiefdom. I'm afraid that as long as he is not wiped out by the Bago army within a year or two, it won't be long before Ava's various industrial production dominance rights will be lost. It fell into the hands of Queen Wanshan."

Xiao Han sighed softly. He really didn't think Wan Shanhou's military ability was that strong, but even Xiao Han recognized Wan Shanhou's business ability.

If this person can serve under Xiao Han, he will be the number one businessman under the Ming Dynasty.

And this wave of opportunities given to Wan Shanhou by Awa can be said to be a direct professional counterpart.

Ava thought it was a mosquito that kept sucking blood, but if Queen Wan Shan really let go of her hands and feet, she could transform into a blood pump.

"hiss!"

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Zhu Biao said in shock.

"It's not an exaggeration."

"You have to know that Queen Wan Shan didn't get there alone."

"The four caravans he led resold official documents in Lingnan and weapons in Lancang, and they all made a lot of money."

"Although they lost a lot of things during our encirclement and suppression, they were also smart. When they went to Ava to purchase goods, they quietly transferred a lot of property to Ava in advance."

"They made a lot of money in Ava again. According to my estimation, their current financial resources are at least as rich as half of the country in the south."

"With such a starting point and almost no restrictions, what do you think will happen in a bare land like Ava where there are no big businessmen?"

Xiao Han asked Zhu Biao.

"this…"

"If this really happens, I'm afraid the businessmen of Ava will be wiped out by him in a short time, and the entire business of Ava will be monopolized by him, well, that's what the word means."

Zhu Biao was speechless for a while.

"It's more than just falling flowers and flowing water."

"Do you still remember my point of view in Ming Dynasty Economics?"

"Compared to those Ava merchants, Wanshanhou's capital is too strong, and they also have the advanced production technology and production model of our Ming Dynasty."

"What he can monopolize is not only business, but also production in all walks of life. He will be able to gain sufficient influence in a short period of time."

"Even the foundation of the country, agriculture, before Ava notices, they will annex a large amount of land. As long as Ava can give him a few months of free time, I am afraid that a small half of Ava's country will be named Wan."

Xiao Han sighed softly.

"this…"

"Not that much."

"The people of Ava are not stupid. Are they just going to watch him annex the land?"

Zhu Biao asked.

"Ugh!"

"How do you think all the dynasties came to an end?"

Xiao Han suddenly asked Zhu Biao.

"I know this. It's mentioned in the Ming Dynasty's Political Outline and Ming Dynasty Economics."

"The wealthy and powerful families annexed the people's land endlessly, resulting in a large number of people who lost their land and had to become refugees during the disaster years. In the end, they could no longer survive and revolted."

Zhu Biao said.

"Then do you think people in all dynasties knew about this?"

Xiao Han chuckled.

"You should know."

"I remember that many people in history have made related reforms."

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said.

"So have these dynasties survived to this day?"

Xiao Han continued to ask.

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"If they can exist until now, then I, the Ming Dynasty..."

Zhu Biao suddenly paused as he spoke.

"I got it?"

"Land annexation is not something that requires an official document to be submitted to the court every time."

"What you can think of, how could Wan Shanhou's shrewdness not think of it, so he will definitely annex land secretly and crazily."

"Then it will take time for Ava to find out, and it will take some time from discovery to reaction, and it will still take a while from reaction to actual implementation of countermeasures."

"And during this period, even if Ava confiscates his tax reduction power, Queen Wanshan can still annex land unscrupulously."

"After all, Ava will not kill him. Ava will definitely be reluctant to kill the wolf cub that he cut off such a large piece of meat to feed, especially since the wolf cub has already grown fangs, so it is inevitable that he will not be injured if he does it. "

"So Ava can only impose sanctions on Wanshanhou through economic policies to slow down the development of Wanshanhou."

"But for businessmen like Queen Wanshan, it takes a lot of effort for our Ming Dynasty to suppress them. So why does the Ava Dynasty suppress them just because they say they suppress them?"

"Moreover, the most stupid thing they did was to return the land to Wanshanhou. With the Wanshanhou caravan having an independent base, it was completely confident to fight, and its financial resources, production capacity, and technology were all This is an advantage that Ava can’t erase in a short period of time.”

"And there are many factions in Ava. They are going all out, but it is difficult to suppress these businessmen. Now everyone has their own opinions. How can we win?"

"As for a person like Queen Wan Shan, as long as he is not defeated in a short time, 80% of a dynasty like Ava will be bought by him sooner or later."

Xiao Han shook his head and opened his mouth to explain.

"Then...what should we do?"

Zhu Biao asked Xiao Han.

"We must not sit back and watch the snake swallow the elephant behind the mountains and eat Ava in one bite."

"I plan to send our businessmen from the Ming Dynasty through Lancang to seize the market in Wanshanhou. This way we don't have to suffer any losses and can make a profit while slowing down the pace of Wanshanhou."

"If the Ava royal family is smart, it will provide us with convenience in terms of economic policy, making it easier for us to attack Wan Shanhou's business strategy."

"After all, even if the imperial court ends, the people on their side can't do anything to Empress Wan Shan, unless they are really bleeding from the wound, endure the cost of being bitten by Empress Wan Shan, and use their real power to eliminate them. Queen of Wanshan."

Xiao Han touched his chin and said.

"Can even the merchants under your command only slow down this guy?"

Zhu Biao frowned.

"Big brother!"

"Do you know what the situation is over there now?"

"Queen Wan Shan has her own fiefdom base in Ava, but our merchants need to transit through Lancang. The power that can penetrate the past is only that of Lancang, which is in ruins."

"The Empress of Wanshan is directly on her home court, but we are thousands of miles away, beyond our reach. If the Ava royal family doesn't cooperate, I may not be able to use it myself."

Xiao Han's mouth twitched, and he knew that the economic talent of Lao Zhu's family had never been too high.

"What if their royal family cooperates?"

"Give us support and impose restrictions on Queen Wan Shan."

Zhu Biao continued to ask.

"Then it will be difficult for one family to dominate Wanshan, and it will be almost impossible to drive us out."

"But this situation, for Ava, is better than being swallowed up by the snake of the queen of mountains and fighting to the death with the queen of mountains and rivers."

"After all, even our Ming Dynasty would feel uneasy if there were foreign businessmen everywhere in the country."

"As time goes by, Ava's side will inevitably become unstable and start to think of ways to replace our position with their own businessmen."

"At this time, we are facing the attack from Wan Shanhou and Ava. If we don't want to send troops to fight, we can only choose to withdraw."

"so…"

Xiao Han said to Zhu Biao, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

"So what?"

As soon as Zhu Biao's eyes lit up, he knew that Xiao Han must have a solution.

"So our southern Xinjiang strategy in Awa must be launched in advance."

"As long as our businessmen pass by, we will immediately take advantage of the time when Ava will not fall out with us, directly import weapons and cultivate internal warlords in Ava."

"Also, the other side next door must also import weapons to them through the sea in the name of Meng Yuan, maintain a balance between the two sides, and light the fire at the right time."

"But we have to be careful this time, and we can't let Empress Wan Shan give the order in advance, otherwise this guy will be able to do much more than we can do outside the scene while he is on the scene."

Xiao Han said.

"That's a good idea."

"Let the two dynasties fight and destroy the... yes, business environment."

"However, the size of these two families is not comparable to that of the clans in Lancang. We may not have enough Mongolian-yuan standard weapons in stock."

Zhu Biao clapped his hands and then spoke again.

At that time, many Ming and Mongolian weapons survived, but after damage and destruction, what was left was no longer enough to support a large country.
