"Yes, Lord Buddha, judging from the news from the Portuguese Merchant House, this General Shen Yourong came to Nanyang to buy grain on the orders of the Ming Emperor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info "Tao Weici gave Nguyen Phuc Yuan the answer he wanted.

"Buy grain, buy grain, could it be that there is a famine in Daming, and Daming is short of food?" Ruan Fuyuan's eyes lit up a little, and he didn't know what good things he was thinking.

"Lord Buddha, I'm afraid it's not." Tao Weici interrupted, "You see, this is a newspaper issued by the Ming Dynasty, called the Imperial Daily, which records the big moves of the Ming Dynasty in the recent period. He took out a stack of newspapers and handed it to Nguyen Phuc Yuan.

Ruan Fuyuan took the newspaper curiously, and the headline of the first page on the top almost scared him to pee.

The Mongol Khan Lin Dan Khan was defeated and naturalized, and the Ming Dynasty occupied Chahanhot.

This is Mongolia Alas, the Great Khan Alas, for Ruan Fuyuan to be able to keep the Nuoda family business called by his father, naturally it is impossible to be ignorant, and he has a certain understanding of the Ming and the Ming Dynasty's old enemy Mongolia in the north, if it is other Great Khans, he may not know, but Lin Dan Khan He has heard of it.

This is the nominal Great Khan of the entire Mongolia, all Mongolia must obey his management, such a figure was defeated by the Ming Emperor, and even the imperial capital he built was lost.

It's ........

The defeat of a clear enemy made Ruan Fuyuan understand the military strength of Da Ming at this time, and he shivered and stammered, "This, this little emperor of Da Ming is really, too powerful." ”

"Lord Buddha, that's not all, you keep looking." Tao Weici smiled bitterly, after these newspapers were collected, he was the first to see them, the more he looked at them, the more frightened he became.

If this trend continues, how can Annan have a way to live?

Being stunned by Tao Weici's expression, Ruan Fuyuan didn't dare to read it for a while, and stroked the newspaper back and forth a few times, but he couldn't get off his hand, this stack of light newspapers, like Yuping Mountain, pressed on his heart, making him almost breathless.

"I'm getting old!" He sighed, gritted his teeth, and flipped through the second one. After reading the title clearly, he almost went black in shock and fainted.

The General Administration of Customs of Daming has opened three customs offices and established three treaty ports to allow overseas ships to come to trade and do business.

"This ......." Ruan Fuyuan pointed to the newspaper with trembling fingers, and his whole body trembled.

This is to kill him! Tao Weici also had a wry smile on his face.

The importance of Pheu Phuc Harbor, how can the two not know that the tax is still a trivial matter, the key is the opening of foreign exchanges, from here, Nguyen Phuc Yuan can get the help of many Westerners, they build forts, help train musketeers, teach ship skills, if there is no help from this, Nguyen Phuc Yuan will not be able to take Quang Nam at all.

And the reason why Feifu Port is so prosperous, all kinds of Western merchants come in an endless stream, is because of the Ming Dynasty's closed country, prohibiting maritime trade, if they know about this, then these merchants will still come to Feifu Port?

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Ruan Fuyuan flipped through the pages quickly, but he didn't look at the contents, just read the headlines, but Rao was like this, and after he finished flipping through all the newspapers, the whole person was sweating profusely, and he collapsed on the seat weakly.

The change in Daming is terrible.

Not to mention the deep level inside, just the exemption from agricultural taxes surprised Ruan Phuc Yuan almost insanely, which ...... It's incredible.

Emperor Ming ....... Emperor Ming........

Ruan Fuyuan looked at the sky with stunned eyes, revealing a look of despair. He seemed to see the scene of the withering of the port of Feifu, the few ships like the morning star roaming in the harbor, and the army of the Zheng lord of the Li Dynasty in the north was attacking him all over the mountains.

"Buddha Lord, Buddha Lord!" Tao Weici shook him, "Lord Buddha, the Ming Dynasty is powerful, maybe it's our opportunity!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Ruan Fuyuan looked at it eagerly as if a person about to drown had grasped the most straw.

"Lord Buddha, relax your mind and listen to me slowly." Tao Weici was not in a hurry, and after comforting Ruan Fuyuan with gentle words again, he went straight down, picked up the teacup, and gently took a few sips.

Tao Weici's slow movements seemed to have a kind of magic, which made Ruan Fuyuan slowly calm down, and looked at the mastermind he had recruited back from the thatched house with hope, hoping that he could give himself a different way out.

Nguyen Phuc Nguyen didn't think about this possible way out for himself, because his heart was already in turmoil, although he was very reluctant to believe the news published in the so-called newspaper, but the fact that the Ming fleet had sailed to the door was the best evidence, and that was the fleet that the Portuguese had to pay attention to. The power behind this can be imagined how terrifying it is.

"Lord Buddha." Tao Weici spoke slowly, "Do you know why we can defend this land of Guangnan? ”

"Why?" Ruan Fuyuan asked cooperatively.

"Because of the terrain." Tao Weici definitely gave an answer, "Because of the terrain, when Mongolia was in full swing, it was still losing troops in Annam, because of the terrain, the Ming Dynasty still had to recognize the independence of the Li Dynasty, and because of the terrain, the Buddha had this land of Guangnan as the foundation for generations to inherit." ”

"The Ming Dynasty has learned from the past, and it will definitely not be so unwise, sending troops to Annam and encroaching on Quang Nam, so that the Buddha does not have to worry, the affairs of North Korea are staged here."

"That's true." Ruan Phuc Yuan nodded in agreement. Daming annexed North Korea, this is what he is most worried about, not worried about North Korea, but the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, since there is the first North Korea, then will there be the second Annam, and then the third Guangnan?

That's why he was desperate just now. Now Tao Weici has ruled out this possibility, which makes him feel better.

"Even if the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty is stunned and arrogant and arrogant to send troops, then this vertical and horizontal Yuping Mountain will tell him what inviolability is." Tao Weici pointed outside, proud and self-reliant.

"Yes, this Quang Nam is mine, and no one can take it away." Nguyen Phuc Yuan, who was boosted by morale, was also very prosperous.

"Since the land of Guangnan is safe and Taishan, then the Buddha may wish to show goodwill to Daming in order to win the support of Daming." Tao Weici pointed to the north, "If we have the support of the Ming Dynasty, we may not be able to swallow elephants." ”

"Is this really possible?" Ruan Fuyuan asked excitedly, as soon as he heard that General Daming had come to buy food, he thought about whether he could catch Daming along this line, but he was frightened by the newspaper handed over by Tao Weici, and directly extinguished this idea.

Now the other party has brought up this possibility again, obviously proving that what he just thought was not wrong. It seems that I am still not old, and I can work for a few more years. Ruan Fuyuan thought with satisfaction in his heart.

"That's true." Tao Weici's affirmative reply made him smile with satisfaction, this reaction made Tao Weici a little inexplicable, and he didn't know what happened to the Buddha.

However, he still followed his own train of thought and said, "Lord Buddha, look at this newspaper. He pulled out a piece of newspaper and pointed to a headline on it, "This is the report of last year's Winter Solstice Haj, you see, it wrote the tribute of the two envoys of Korea and Japan at that time." ”

Ruan Phuc Yuan looked at it carefully, this page was all about the discussion of this tribute, and he could feel the pride and joy from the words of the newspaper. There are also some critical articles, saying that the emperor is too greedy, and in the past he would give rewards and tributes to the world group, but this time there was nothing.

Seeing this, Ruan Fuyuan had a flash of inspiration and said happily, "We will also go to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute?" ”

"Yes, Lord Buddha." Tao Weici also smiled, "Whether the Ming Emperor is stingy or poor, anyway, he only accepts tribute, and will not return tribute. ”

Speaking of this, Tao Weici smiled, Ruan Fuyuan also smiled, and the two said in unison, "Righteousness! ”

Among these small countries in Nanyang, righteousness is the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, and whoever is recognized by the Ming Dynasty is orthodox, and who can occupy the righteousness and stand on the moral high ground.

"In that case, it seems that I have to go and meet this General Shen in person." After reining in his smile, Ruan Fuyuan said lightly.

"It should be so, it is best for the Buddha Lord to come forward in person, and the envoy above the head of Emperor Dali is only of this grade, except for the Buddha Lord in Guangnan, anyone else who goes to negotiate will damage the face of the Heavenly Empire." Tao Weici nodded in agreement with his head.

"Okay, then I will personally go out and present a great gift to Emperor Ming." Nguyen Phuc Nguyen made the final decision, and then began to give orders, ordering the government affairs under his command to thoroughly inspect the grain stored in the granary, and at the same time send people to the people to collect grain.

He was going to take food to meet this famous and domineering General Shen.

At the same time, in the port of Feifu, there was an undercurrent, except for the Dutch merchant, other countries also spread the news, after all, the ancient country of the East, suddenly appeared such a powerful fleet, the meaning behind this is really amazing, and it definitely has an amazing impact on the interests of various countries in the South Seas.

Not only that, but some people who were secretly active were also looking at the small building that Shen Yourong lived in at this moment.

After a period of discussion, a swarthy man suddenly appeared near the small western-style building, and was discovered by the guards. ”

The man raised his hands and whispered a word, and the guard led by him was stunned, and then dropped a sentence, "I'll go in and report it." Then he turned and ran back.

After about a few minutes, he came out and led the swarthy man into the small western-style building. No one noticed this scene, even the Portuguese, the owner of the merchant house, did not notice, and at this moment, they were also arguing because of the arrival of Shen Yourong's fleet, and they had no time to pay attention to these at all.

[Author's digression]: I really want to open this city, but I haven't started writing yet, just conceiving it, and I'm just thinking about the book at hand, and now it's just a collection of hot spots and characters.

Initially, it was set as an urban practice.

What plot do you want to see, you can talk about it, and what supporting roles are also given a setting, I'll see if I can add it.
