In the morning of the capital, with the rising sun, this huge city has started another busy day.

"Sell Newspaper~Sell Newspaper~"

"Nanyang victory, Nanyang victory~"

"Ma Liujia compensated me for 17 million taels of silver~"

"Siam compensated me with 50 million taels of silver~"

In the streets and alleys, accompanied by the sound of the newsboys, a large number of people suddenly gathered around these newsboys, and Nanyang won a great victory.

"Give me a copy~"

"Give me a copy~"

Around the newsboy, people rushed to buy newspapers, and in a blink of an eye, the newspapers in the hands of the newsboys were sold out, and more and more people liked to read newspapers, and the sales of newspapers were getting higher and higher.

And now there is not only the Ming Morning Post, but also other newspapers here in the Beijing-Tianjin area, such as some students here in Guozijian, which are specially written with some high-level and obscure, and even more profound things, pretending to be profound, so the sales are very poor, and only a few people will buy them.

There is also a partnership between the business community of the Ming Dynasty, which specifically reports on business-related content, advocating that businessmen should love money and take it in the right way, and that business should be honest, and at the same time, they should also do their part for the prosperity and strength of the Ming Dynasty, rather than being profiteers, making the country difficult to make money, and so on.

The success of the newspaper industry has also given birth to the development of the newspaper industry, and more and more people run newspapers, but there are not many who can really stick to it, because newspapers are difficult to bring much profit at first, and they are basically sold at a loss.

A few pennies a newspaper, that's all a loss of money to make money.

The business of the teahouse listening to the rain pavilion is getting better and better, the genius has just dawned, the listening rain pavilion is already full of people, everyone orders a pot of tea, and then some breakfast and the like, while reading the newspaper, while listening to the newspaper Mr. Zhou Zhishi's explanation of the content of the newspaper, you will suddenly feel that you have a deeper understanding of many things.

"Okay~It's another big win~"

"I easily won the battle against Malacca, taught Siam a hard lesson, and let them know how powerful our Ming is."

"You don't know, this Siam is really not a good thing, in January, I went to Siam, and a ship forcibly levied a heavy tax of 100,000 taels of silver on me, and this trip was in vain."

"I'm lucky, I've heard that someone's merchant ships have been looted and their crews have been killed."

"Now it's okay, let you be arrogant, and let you collect the heavy taxes on our Ming merchant ships."

"My grandson's tax tomorrow is only thirty taxes, and you dare to levy such a heavy tax, retribution is coming."

Some businessmen looked at the latest Ming Morning Post, and the whole person couldn't help but applaud.

It's so cool!

These businessmen finally have someone to support them.

In the past, these businessmen were criticized by others, they were scolded every day for being profiteers or something, and they were restricted by the government, although they had money, they had no status, and it was impossible for the imperial court to mobilize people to attack a country because of their affairs.

It's different now, Da Ming not only stands out for them, but also clears the way for their future Jin merchants.

After that, when they go to Siam and Malacca, not only do they not have to worry about being heavily taxed, but even if they commit crimes in these countries, it is not under the control of these countries, they cannot control it.

This made the businessmen suddenly can't help but raise their eyebrows and let out a bad breath.

"Oh my God~"

"This Ma Liujia needs to compensate me Daming 17 million taels of silver, and Siam needs to compensate me Daming 50 million taels of silver, this installment, calculated, the total amount of compensation is more than 10,000 taels of silver~"

Some people are crying out over the huge war reparations.

Such a huge war reparation, like an astronomical amount of silver, made the people of Daming couldn't help but exclaim.

"I heard that Your Majesty intends to take out this war reparation and use it to build more cement roads, reservoirs, promotions, bridges, etc. in my Ming Dynasty."

"I heard that in the south, we are going to build a cement highway from Songhu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, and Yunnan to the east and west of the south."

"Yes, such a long cement road, how much silver does it cost~"

"The silver court has, I didn't see some in the newspaper, this Siamese country alone will compensate me with 50 million taels of silver, which will be paid off in 30 years, and it will be calculated with interest and tens of thousands of taels of silver."

"There are tens of thousands of taels of silver, and I'm afraid it's not enough to repair the cement road, and a few more are enough."

"Your Majesty is really a saint of the ages, I don't enjoy this silver, I always think about our people."

"Yes, yes, with the cement road, it is much more convenient for us to travel, with the reservoir, we are not afraid of floods, and there are large-scale bridges and paving roads, which are all good things for the country and the people, and His Majesty said that these are repaired with silver, and it is no longer a form of conscription."

“……”

In the teahouse, everyone talked non-stop.

After winning the battle, not only did the waist stand straight and the head was raised, but the key was that Emperor Hongzhi also followed Liu Jin's advice, which obtained war reparations from the war, and it was used to benefit the people's livelihood of the Ming Dynasty.

Building bridges and paving roads, repairing reservoirs, repairing embankments, etc., these are the things that can benefit the people the most, and they are also good things that can greatly enhance the national strength of the Ming Dynasty.

"Smack~"

Zhou Zhishi woke up and patted the wood, and the whole Tingyulou suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at Zhou Zhishi in unison, quietly waiting for Zhou Zhishi to explain today's Ming Morning News, and listen to his views on current affairs.

"Nanyang victory, I took Malacca lightly, punched Siam, not only obtained a piece of land here in Malacca, the throat land, but more importantly, also obtained a huge amount of war reparations~"

"Although from the perspective of a gentleman, this is seriously not in line with the way of a gentleman, and forcing other countries to sign an alliance under the city with strong force will damage the national prestige of our Ming Dynasty."

"But the Nanyang countries, the barbarian land, do not know the education, do not understand the etiquette, but also fear of power but not virtue, my Ming Dynasty from Emperor Taizu, has always been benevolent and righteous to the Nanyang countries, the Nanyang countries come to my Ming Dynasty tribute, my Ming Dynasty is several times back, never let them suffer."

"But these Nanyang countries regard my Ming Dynasty as a big wrongdoer, and pay tribute every year, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger, so as to obtain rich gifts from my Ming side, causing my Ming treasury to be empty and the people to be trapped."

"A small country in the South Seas, Yelang is arrogant, he doesn't know the height of the sky, he forgets his righteousness, and he doesn't know what to do."

"Last year, the countries of Nanyang came to pay tribute to my Ming Dynasty, and its purpose is naturally self-evident, which is to squeeze the wealth of my Ming Dynasty in the name of tribute."

"Fortunately, the son of heaven is Shengming, and the princes of the court and the central government are all virtuous ministers and good generals, so the Ming vassal agreement was introduced, abandoning the unrealistic good deeds of the past, everything is the core of the fundamental interests of my Ming Dynasty, and it is also for the better unity of the Nanyang countries."

"However, the Nanyang countries did not receive the holy grace of the Son of Heaven, did not want to learn from the teachings of my Ming Dynasty, and were unwilling to sign the agreement of the Ming vassal states.

"This Siamese country is even more immeasurable to contact the countries of the South Seas, in a vain attempt to unite against our Ming Dynasty, this is self-defeating, and the crime deserves it."

"I can't bear it, in order to protect the interests of my Ming and promote the way of Confucianism, so I have to raise a crusade~"

Zhou Zhishi explained slowly, his eloquence was very good, and everyone was fascinated by the listening and understood the cause of this incident.

In short, although what my Ming did was very robber and not benevolent enough, it was also because these Nanyang countries were unrighteous to my Ming first, and they did not know what to do and maliciously targeted my Ming.

Originally, I Daming was kind and kind, so that you signed this vassal agreement, and you will be a family in the future, you learn everything from my Daming, understand education, understand etiquette, and follow Confucianism, so that you can get rid of barbarism and ignorance.

But you don't know what to do, forget it, and deliberately target me Daming, how can I easily spare you?

“… When today's son is the saint of the ages, the three emperors of Gonggai, the five emperors of Degao, the text can be compared with the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, and the martial arts cover the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, which is really the blessing of my Ming Dynasty and the blessing of our people! ”

"To obtain such a huge amount of compensation, Your Majesty did not set aside a piece of silver for his own enjoyment, but prepared to build bridges and paving roads, repair reservoirs, and build embankments in various parts of my Ming Dynasty, so as to lay the foundation for the prosperity of my Ming Dynasty for all generations."

In the end, Zhou Zhishi couldn't help but kowtow to the place where the palace of Emperor Hongzhi was located in the north, admiring the sage of the Son of Heaven, having such a Son of Heaven is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty and the blessing of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

The people in the Beijing-Tianjin area are cheering, cheering for the victory of Nanyang, and cheering for the large-scale construction of water conservancy and the construction of bridges and paving roads in various parts of the Ming Dynasty.

On the other side, Tianjin Shili Foreign Bank is here.

On the wide ten-mile street, one building after another, resplendent gold, at this moment, every business house began to beat gongs and drums, firecrackers in unison, to celebrate the great victory of the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang.

The Ming army won a great victory in Nanyang and repaired Siam ruthlessly, which also made these trading houses breathe a bad breath.

This is not the key, more importantly, with the successive military operations of the Ming Dynasty on the Nanyang side, Annan was destroyed, the city was captured, Malacca was kicked, and Siam was punched.

The entire Nanyang countries were impressed by the powerful force of the Ming Dynasty, and they all became honest one by one, and their trading houses in the Nanyang region suddenly straightened their waists and were full of confidence.

In the past, they dared to levy their heavy taxes, but now they don't even dare to put a fart on the Ming people, for fear of being attacked and retaliated against by the Ming army, which is a real benefit.

If a ship is not taxed by these small countries in the South Seas, it can earn more than 100,000 taels of silver casually, and the silver and tangible benefits are the reason why they celebrate so much.
