So, Su Ke patted Wei Zhongxian's shoulder, sat down beside the eunuch who leaned towards the government and the opposition, grinned and said with a smile: "Old Wei, you don't know, there are many countries in the west." I've been to the Anglo-Saxon, Franco, Prussian, Netherlands, Spain. I heard that they had found another large piece of land in the west, and now many people have gone to the new land to make a fortune. I sometimes think that it would be great if I could take our sons and daughters out to make a fortune. Wei Zhongxian glanced at this stupid person beside him in surprise, what a lofty ambition! There is such an ambition, take Daming's sons out to make money, and exchange their gold, silver and jewelry with ceramics and silk that Daming has never lacked. Wei Zhongxian is certainly not an incorruptible person. And he also knows how lucrative Haimao is. He didn't know what the results of the Song Dynasty were, he rarely read books and didn't bother to care about these trivial things. But now that there is nothing to do, the imperial court has banned more people from going to sea to sell. Maybe the person in front of him is one of them, otherwise how would he know about those things overseas. If I had hearsay, I would have heard a lot of it before. But as soon as this fool opened his mouth, several names of places that he had never heard of popped up. Wei Zhongxian knew that the person in front of him was definitely not a simple guy based on this alone. If there is something he fabricated among the names of places he mentioned, then this man is an unusual careerist who dares to lie in front of himself. If he is telling the truth, then he is not a simple naturalist, and perhaps a master of collecting money. At this time, a plate of three fresh foods was served. If this was in the 21st century, the high-grade restaurants would never use such talents to receive people like Wei Zhongxian. But here is the Ming Dynasty after all. Then there's nothing wrong with that. Potatoes, eggplants, green peppers, and carrots, although they have been more or less spread in the Ming Dynasty, have never attracted the attention of the upper class intellectuals. Only Xu Guangqi, a pioneer of cultural exchanges between China and the West, would care about the crops that are not good-looking. But today, Su Ke is going to let these eunuchs have a good understanding of what these crops in front of them mean to Da Ming. "Look at the food, I brought it back from overseas. They are not difficult to grow, but now they can be sold for a very high price in my university. After all, scarcity is expensive. All the eunuchs nodded, and what they were thinking about now was not the global consciousness that Su Ke wanted them to realize, but that they should go back and ask for some seeds to plant on their estates. When they are popularized, especially once this potato is widely planted on the land of Shenzhou, natural disasters and famines will not be as ferocious as before. With a bang, Liu Ruoyu's chopsticks fell into the bowl. When everyone's eyes followed the sound, they found that he was staring at the potatoes on the plate and refused to take his eyes off. It seemed that the fried yellow thing was not a potato, but a piece of gold. Li Yongzhen knew what he was thinking. This guy is an alternative among eunuchs, although he doesn't have a handle in his crotch, but he always thinks like a scholar. At every turn, they will take the common people of the world as their own responsibility, but it is a pity that the scholars and doctors will not accept this kind of person. Wei Zhongxian also took a breath of relief and said, "I heard that there are quite a few famines in Shaanxi and Shanxi this year. It's a pity that our family doesn't have the ability to help the Holy One calm these disasters. Wei Zhongxian said this as he peeked at Su Ke. The meaning is obvious, give me some good seeds, I curse and swear I'll let the victims plant these things. Of course, Su Ke knew where Wei Zhongxian was sending these good seeds. It was impossible to go any further, and his own estate was the most likely place. At the same time, Suke also felt that the conversation between the two sides was a bit off-topic. He originally wanted him to be sponsored by his sword gate to run the sea trade, and in the sea ban policy full of loopholes, he blatantly poked a hole in it. So Su Ke gritted his teeth and said: "In fact, this famine, good seeds can only cure the symptoms, and if you want to cure the root cause, you must prohibit those civil officials from annexing land." Speaking of this, Su Ke suddenly felt that his tone was a little like that of a scholar in the court, as if there was some conflict with Li Kui's line, so the conversation changed, and the next sentence became: "My mother once told me that the civil officials let the big guys have no land to plant and no food to save, so when everyone encounters a famine, there will be a lack of food to eat." If you don't have anything to eat, then there will be breakfast. This is said very plainly, although it is the same as the tone of some Qingliu celebrities, but it has an obvious "dirt road" style. Hearing this, Wei Zhongxian and the others reacted first that Su Ke's mother was probably the daughter of a rural landlord. has a certain insight, but also has to face the hardships of life, so I can explain some truths in simple terms. And when these truths reach the mouth of the rough-speaking son, they become the above-mentioned words that sound very "down-to-earth". "If the emperor had done the same, the treasury would have been enriched as well. The peasants who dig in the fields don't have to pay as many taxes. "How can that work?" Hearing Su Ke's words, Liu Ruoyu was the first to jump out and object, "As an emperor, how can you compete with the people?" "What is the competition with the people?" Su Ke pouted dissatisfiedly, "That's a competition with the gentry." How many farmers are there who actually do business? Besides, the emperor could not only make money nor let the officials run the business, but let the peasants who had lost their land find work. How can it be considered a glorious job to work for the emperor? Anyway, just don't let them have breakfast. Liu Ruo stood up stupidly, clapped his hands and shouted, "This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it." Su Ke also slapped the table and jumped up, tearing open his voice like a broken gong and yelling, "You really didn't expect it." It seems that I am still very smart, my mother said that I was stupid, I didn't expect things that a smart person like Gonggong Liu didn't expect, I thought of it. Wei Zhongxian saw the two people jumping up one after another, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "This is called the wise man's thousand worries must have a mistake, and the fool's thousand worries also have a gain." Su Ke sat down on the chair, leaned next to Wei Zhongxian's ear and asked, "What do you mean by that?" I don't understand. Wei Zhongxian smiled: "This is what those bullshit civil officials said, honest people like us, there is no need to understand." Su Ke immediately put on a look of sudden realization, and praised loudly: "What Lao Wei said is true. Let those bunnies go by themselves. We still have to go abroad to earn money. The Three Treasure Eunuchs are sending money to people, and we are going to earn other people's money until our Ming Dynasty becomes the richest country in the world. Wei Zhongxian patted Su Ke's head and said with a smile: "Look at you, don't speak so loudly." Now that I'm still in the sea ban, you're so noisy to go out and make money. It's just that you don't take the national policy of the Ming Dynasty seriously. Su Ke touched his head, put on a puzzled expression, and asked curiously, "If we go rough, we can make money." Why aren't you allowed out? Wei Zhongxian saw that she really didn't understand the importance of the sea ban policy, so he explained: "There are two main reasons for this sea ban policy, in our opinion. One is to let those robbers at sea starve to death and die of starvation because they can't grab anything. In this way, the imperial court did not need to use military spending, and easily got rid of them. Su Ke put on a thoughtful look, and then asked sharply, "Are you starving, sleepy?" Wei Zhongxian was almost suffocated to death by this sentence, and Zheng Zhilong's gang of Fujian pirates have been making trouble recently. There is still controversy in the court about whether to appease them. Apparently not trapped to death, starved to death. "Actually, my old Su feels that he can't die of sleepiness and hunger. Why? Because the overseas land is bigger, bigger than us, even if it is bigger than the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is very big. I think that our sea ban is not trapped from the outside, but it may make us ourselves. Liu Ruoyu asked a little puzzled: "You just said that you wanted to tell us about overseas affairs, and this has been going on for a long time, and you haven't left the seaside of Daming." Also, I don't think Yidi is of any use in the wilderness. When Su Ke heard this, his face was full of helplessness. This view has been held almost throughout Chinese history, until the sharp guns of the ships shattered the dreams of the arrogant Chinese intellectuals. "The Tartar place doesn't seem to be of much use, but the place produces horses. Central Plains? A place has its use, rather than less, maybe when it will be used? After a pause, Su Ke pointed at Liu Ruoyu and smiled: "This concept is not good." Directly lost at the starting line, after a few decades, maybe it is the small country on the Western side that wins at the starting line, not my Daming. When the crowd heard this, they were all shocked. Su Ke felt that he was talking a little too much, anyway, if Iron Bull was here, he would never say that. So he reluctantly smiled: "When I was in the Western Ocean, I saw their clippers and their robes, but I didn't know that my Ming was much better than our Ming things." I just don't know when I'll be able to shoot a group of people and go out to see, so that when we are bullied to the door in the future, I don't know how others surpass us. Liu Ruoyu stood up, walked to the partition and paced back and forth, as if something touched him, but he couldn't say it himself. After a while, Wei Zhongxian asked with a smile, "Ruoyu, what did you think of?" At this time, Liu Ruoyu hadn't figured out what touched him, so when Wei Zhongxian asked this, he was a little panicked, so he hurriedly made an excuse and prepared to prevaricate: "No, it's nothing, it's just that I saw that the baffle was changed, and I was a little curious to come and take a look." When everyone heard him say this, they also turned their eyes to him. The people who came yesterday also nodded their heads, saying that they had indeed changed. Only Wei Zhongxian's face had already become unable to look directly. Liu Ruoyu didn't know what he said wrong, and was about to kneel down to plead guilty, but unexpectedly, Wei Zhongxian snorted coldly and said, "Our family still has something to do, so we have to go back first." Su Ke's heart tightened, and the problem of the longboard bridge that Zhuge Liang said seemed to be presented in front of him. Although the other Tai Cheap didn't know what Wei Zhongxian wanted to do, but he wanted to leave, of course, no one could pull him, so he could only leave here with him. "Hey, Old Wei." Suke stood up and smiled, "You haven't eaten yet, how can you just leave?" "I just remembered a little bit of business, and I had to go back and deal with it. What you just said is very inspiring to our family. So I'm going to go back and ask the emperor and the cabinet if I want to get your opinion on it. After hearing this, Su Ke also hesitated in his heart, whether he was suspicious of the partition, or was he really just going back to consider his opinion, as he said. However, since he gave the reason, Su Ke couldn't stop him anymore, so he had to smile and say, "Then we'll see you in the afternoon." Wei Zhongxian also smiled: "It's easy to say." Then he coldly said to his subordinates, "Follow me!" ”
