"Your Majesty, I don't know how many of these slaves there are?"

A businessman stood up and bowed to Ying Zheng.

"It's too much for you to imagine."

Ying Zheng was very patient and said with an unfathomable face.

"Your Majesty, what price do we need to pay?"

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and they all know that.

Someone asked the doubts in their hearts, and everyone's eyes fell on Ying Zheng's face.

"Slaves don't take a penny, and I believe that everyone here has a good way to domesticate slaves."

Ying Zheng looked around and said with deep meaning.

Impossible, right?

Is there such a good thing in the world?

Giving slaves for free?

For a while, in the hall, doubts spread.

Everyone almost had a look of disbelief, but no one could figure out why His Majesty did this.

Woo yourself?

Who will believe this?

What is the identity of Your Majesty?

Need to woo yourself into these unpopular characters?

But not everyone is consumed by interests and loses their minds.

"The sea is unpredictable, and if you are not careful, the ship will be destroyed and people will die."

"Your Majesty's intentions, but let me wait to transport slaves to the four islands of Yingzhou?"

A giant deer nobleman stood up and asked a rational question.

Suddenly, everyone felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on their heads, and they were all afraid.

There is really no free lunch in the world, such a good thing, if there is no danger, how can it be your turn?

"Since the beginning of the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, China has never lacked the spirit of striving for openness."

"Wealth and danger, if there is no risk at all, such a great good thing, I will give it to you to do, do you dare to do it?"

Ying Zheng immediately put on a straight face, and his voice was full of expression.

"In that case, why doesn't the imperial court do it itself?"

This nobleman was so bold that he almost asked by name.

"Presumptuous, how noble your majesty's identity is."

"This kind of petty profit may be a splendid wealth for you, but Your Majesty is rich from all over the world, and you are the lord of the world."

"How can you tarnish the name of the Holy Lord because of small profits?"

Li Si stood up and scolded loudly.

Forehead!

The nobleman was instantly speechless by Li Siyi, and felt that it seemed to be true.

The slave trade is not a good name.

It seems that His Majesty does not want to bear the stigma of history?

Almost everyone was taken into the ditch by Li Si, and most of the doubts in their hearts disappeared in an instant.

Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and gave him an approving look.

Putting aside the talents, Li Si's wit and loyalty are also rare loyal ministers!

Perhaps he was not loyal to Daqin, but to himself.

But isn't that exactly what you need?

If a king is not loyal to his team, sooner or later he will be stripped of his power and reduced to a puppet.

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Zhong, who was standing aside, and the old god was there.

Zhao Zhong immediately noticed His Majesty's sharp gaze, and immediately shouted loudly, "Lift up." ”

Four chamberlains walked into the hall carrying a long roll of brocade cloth.

Then each person grabbed a corner and directly unfolded the long cloth, and a scroll of three meters high and about ten meters wide was displayed in front of everyone.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by the magnificent picture on this scroll, and the vast majority of people couldn't help but count it in their hearts.

One......

Two......

Three......

Eleven......

Twelve......

A twelve-masted ship?

Oh, my God!

In their lifetimes, they had never seen such an exaggerated and magnificent ship.

On the picture scroll, a huge twelve-masted giant ship rides the wind and waves, sailing on the rough sea, galloping vertically and horizontally.

Although the wind is howling and the waves are rolling, it is like an impregnable mountain, shuttling through the wind and waves.

"I plan to turn Bohai Bay into a seaport, and build a large number of twelve-masted ships to conquer the four seas."

"Yingzhou is only the starting point of the Great Qin Empire, and it is by no means the end."

"In this world, all the rivers and rivers that shine on the sun and the moon will become Qin soil."

"Even the sea, which is known as the forbidden area for living beings, can't stop the pace of Great Qin's rise."

"Do you think it would be dangerous to sail the ocean on such a huge ship?"

Ying Zheng had a smile on his face, and continued to instigate demagoguery.

"Your Majesty, can such a huge ship really be built?"

A somewhat naïve wealthy businessman asked.

"Bastard, you have no jokes, what Your Majesty said, how can you question it?"

Meng Yi also stood up and scolded.

This wealthy businessman immediately received the disdainful glances of everyone.

Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, the rich merchant was a little drumming in his heart, and he shrank his neck in fear.

"It doesn't matter."

Ying Zheng didn't mean to investigate, and said to solve the siege.

Meng Yi saw that His Majesty would not pursue it, what else could he say as a courtier?

"The construction starts this year, and it takes a year to make wood, and at most two years the giant ship will be able to sail to the sea."

Ying Zheng directly gave an exact time, and Chengzhu was in the chest.

"Your Majesty, can we also use this huge ship to transport slaves for free?"

The rich merchant in sackcloth, with a sleek-faced face, asked again.

It's just that as soon as the words fell, the audience burst into laughter.

The rich merchant's face was red and white.

He knew that it wasn't that he was saying it too funny, but that it was ridiculous.

Even Ying Zheng was amused, how did such a fool make a fortune?

"All the benefits have been taken by you, how can there be such a good thing in the world?"

"If you want to go to the sea to Yingzhou to transport slaves, I won't stop you."

"But if you want to use a giant ship, you need a shipping document issued by the imperial court."

"If you want to get a slave for nothing, you must also be qualified for paperwork."

"A large number of slaves can build roads and bridges, and open up wasteland and build cities."

"Therefore, every slave is a valuable asset of the empire, and manpower must not be wasted easily."

Ying Zheng's voice was generous and powerful, and it could not be denied.

Hearing Yingzheng's words, many people began to frown and ponder, weighing the pros and cons.

After a while, everyone stretched their brows one by one.

It would be profitable if the shipping documents issued, as well as the qualifications for the transport of slaves, were not excessive.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how to get the shipping paperwork, as well as the qualification paperwork?"

A gorgeously dressed giant deer nobleman stood up and bowed to Ying Zheng.

"Hand it over to the imperial court, 50,000 gold as a pledge, you can get shipping documents, a twelve-mast giant shipping ship."

"Hand it over to the imperial court, 30,000 gold as a pledge, you can get shipping documents, a large ten-mast shipping ship."

"Hand it over to the imperial court, 20,000 gold as a pledge, you can get shipping documents, an eight-mast medium-sized shipping ship."

"Hand it over to the imperial court, 10,000 gold as a pledge, you can get shipping documents, a small six-mast shipping ship."

"If you don't want to engage in slave transportation anymore, the imperial court will make a fair and just assessment of the damage to the sea ship according to the degree of damage, deduct the discount price, and return the pledge."

"Slaves need to pledge 100,000 gold on the way to transport slaves, and the imperial court gives a legal death rate of 5% on the way to transport slaves. For every additional slave who dies on the way, the equivalent of the market value will be deducted from the pledge of 100,000 gold. ”

"100,000 pledges, more than half of which is consumed, you must continue to make up the pledge, otherwise the qualification documents will be cancelled."

"If you want to stop the loss in time and don't want to continue transporting slaves, the 100,000 pledge will be returned by the imperial court in full."

Ying Zheng's words directly caused the audience to gasp.

You must know that this money is not a small amount for any of the families present.

Maybe there are many families present who can come up with so much money by gritting their teeth, but it will also make the family hurt.

However, the 100,000 sky-high pledge to obtain the qualification documents has already made 80% of the wealthy businessmen and powerful clans present daunting.

The gold that Your Majesty is talking about is not really sky-high gold, otherwise no one can take it.

There are only two kinds of coins in circulation in Daqin, one is gold, which is made of fine brass.

One is the lower coin, which is a copper coin made of inferior bronze.

One gold can be exchanged for 1,000 copper coins, and 100,000 gold is 100 million copper coins.

With so much money, there are quite a few families that the Great Qin Empire can take out at one time.

But the huge Julu County, there are only a handful of families that can come up with so much money.

"Your Majesty, with so much money, there is really nothing we can do!"

"Yes! 100,000 gold is only a qualification document, even if you add the cheapest small sea ship paperwork, it will cost 110,000 gold, which is equivalent to 110 million copper coins. ”

"This is simply astronomical, even if you sell your wealth, the grass people can't come up with so much money."

For a while, everyone complained bitterly, one poorer than the other, how miserable it was.

Anyway, it's just a sentence, you want to have benefits, you want to take out the money, and you are reluctant to give up a copper plate.

"If one person can't take it, then ten people, ten people can't do it, just a hundred people!"

"To form a chamber of commerce, the chamber of commerce can share the profits proportionally according to the amount of money each person has taken out."

"The establishment of the chamber of commerce can be declared to the local government, and the court will do notarization, and those who can work hard, as has been the case since ancient times."

"There are no slaves in Yingzhou, the vast four seas, more islands, more inland, more aliens, more slaves, and more resources."

"A piece of paper, valid forever. Holding them can not only transport slaves to the sea, but also transport goods, sell them to foreign races, and make foreign money, why not do it? ”

"If you don't have enough money, find your relatives and friends, and you find rich businessmen and tycoons you know, and wealthy nobles to join together."

"Riding the empire's ocean-going giant ships, riding the wind and waves, overcoming thorns and thorns, spreading the prosperity of the Great Qin Empire to all seas."

Ying Zheng stood up, magnificent, and shouted at everyone.

When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly widened.

Ying Zheng seems to have opened the door to a new world for them, going to the ocean to trade with foreign races?

Seems pretty good!

As for spreading the prosperity of the Great Qin Empire, they were not much interested.

But as long as it's profitable, it's completely different.

Who would dislike money too much?

It will only be afraid that it will not be enough, and once the seeds of greed sprout, it will be out of control.

Everyone was shocked by the world depicted by Ying Zheng.

The world is so big, I want to see it, and it has become the truest portrayal in everyone's hearts......
