"What did Kunlun Nu clean up?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to be a slave?"

Zhang Mao thought for a while and said, does Liu Jin have any hatred for Kunlun Nu, and he actually targets Kunlun Nu so much.

"As a slave?"

Liu Jin smiled and shook his head and said, "I don't know if you have read some of the history of Europe and the Middle East, there are several powerful empires in history that have been destroyed in the hands of slaves. ”

"For example, the Roman Empire was once very powerful, its territory spanned Europe, Asia and Africa, but the Roman Empire was finally destroyed by slaves because of the country's dependence and use of slaves."

"These Kunlun slaves may be good slaves, but the country's dependence and use of slaves will also bring long-term hidden dangers and crises to a country."

"It's our own people who are really reliable, and finding ways to increase our own population is king."

It's impossible to use Kunlun slaves, these black uncles can't do anything else, it's very good to have children, the key is to be lazy and lazy, once you get in, it's hard to get out, you have to clean it up.

"Kunlun slaves are all trivial, the big deal is that when the time comes, all of them will be expelled, or they will all be arrested and sold to Europe, last time I heard the Spaniard who came to the capital say, the slave trade in Europe is very popular."

Xu Guangzuo didn't care, Liu Jin didn't like Kunlun slaves, so don't do it.

"In the long run, slaves are indeed unreliable, or our own people are reliable, since we have chosen to come to the back road, it is natural that there can be no hidden dangers, according to what Liu Jin said, Kunlun slaves cannot be kept."

Zhu Fu thought about it and nodded and said.

"What's so bad about slaves, how many people can we bring with us at the beginning?"

"At that time, even if you occupy a large area of land, there will not be enough labor to cultivate it, and if you have slaves, you can still let these slaves cultivate and wait for the harvest."

Zhang Mao pouted slightly, he thought that slaves were very useful, there were a large number of slaves in the plantations here in Nanyang, as long as they were fed, and then they waited to count the silver, how good this business was.

"The steam engine came out, and you can use more machines for farming in the future, it's fast and labor-saving, why do you need so many people."

"What's more, when the children and grandchildren reproduce in the future, will they be afraid of no one?"

Liu Jin said helplessly.

"Okay, okay, don't use it."

"Anyway, let's take this place first."

"You don't know, now we are discussing the matter of going overseas to seize private colonies, if we start slowly, then the good places in the world will be robbed."

Zhang Mao didn't argue with Liu Jin about the Kunlun slave matter, Liu Jin's vision is still very long-term, and he said that the right thing should not be wrong.

"Yes, a lot of people are going to sea?"

Liu Jin thought for a while and asked.

"Too much, too much~"

"The orders for arms and weapons here at Miyun Iron Factory are almost gone~"

Zhang Mao nodded solemnly and said.

"What some experts in later generations said was fart, who said that we lack wolf nature?"

Hearing Zhang Mao's words, Liu Jin couldn't help but scold in his heart.

In later generations, there are always some so-called brick beasts who stand up and say that our nation is not good at this, that is not good, what, what lacks wolf nature, and so on.

It's all fart!

As long as there is meat to eat, the descendants of Huaxia are more ruthless than anyone else, and they are more active than anyone else.

……

Nanchang Ning Palace.

"Lord Wang, Mr. Qian is here~"

Liu Yangzheng came to the side of Zhu Chenhao, King Ning, and reminded with a smile that at this time, King Ning was frowning, worried about money, going to Haiwa, and taking tens of thousands of people to fight overseas.

"Good~"

Zhu Chenhao nodded slightly, and then came to the living room with a smile on his face, where there was a merchant wearing gold and silver and jewelry, standing there, carefully looking at the palace from time to time.

"Mr. Qian ~ Mr. Qian ~"

Zhu Chenhao walked over with a smile on his face.

"Lord Wang~"

Qian Duo hurriedly bowed his hand and saluted, the other party is also a prince, and he is a businessman, even if the other party is asking for him now, he can't be rude.

"Mr. Qian is still satisfied with my house, right?"

Zhu Chenhao didn't mean to waste time, so he asked directly.

"Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied~"

Qian Duo nodded again and again, he is a wealthy businessman in Jiangxi, and he has made a lot of money by going to sea in the past two years, and he wants to buy some industry in his hometown.

"200,000 taels of silver, this house will belong to you, Mr. Qian."

Zhu Chenhao nodded and said directly.

There is no way, Zhu Chenhao has even sold his house in order to go to sea, this is the palace handed down from his ancestors, and his subordinates have also tried their best to dissuade him.

But on the one hand, Zhu Chenhao really needs silver, and on the other hand, he really doesn't plan to come back, and it is useless to keep this palace, so he simply sells it, and more silver can be much more abundant.

"Two hundred thousand taels of silver?"

"Isn't this too expensive~"

Qian Duo listened to it, and after thinking about it, it was also a counteroffer.

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, this is the palace, if I don't want to go to sea, this can't be sold."

"And Mr. Qian is rich in the world, and 200,000 taels of silver is trivial."

Zhu Chenhao smiled and said: "It's settled, after this king conquers overseas, he will have to rely on Mr. Qian's help, and he will definitely not forget Mr. Qian when there is any business." ”

"Okay~"

Qian Duo thought about it and nodded helplessly, the other party is also a prince anyway, and when it comes to this, even if it is more expensive, he still nodded and agreed.

If King Ning's subordinates came to negotiate the price with him, the money would definitely be tens of thousands of taels of silver.

King Ning is also very clear about this, so King Ning will come forward in person, tens of thousands of taels of silver is also money, who called King Ning is short of money now.

After sending away the money, King Ning turned to Liu Yangzheng and asked, "What else can be sold in the palace?" ”

"Lord Wang, everything that can be sold has basically been sold out, and only some of your favorite antique calligraphy and paintings are left."

Liu Yangzheng hurriedly replied.

"It's sold, it's all sold, antique calligraphy and paintings can't be eaten or drunk, and it's useless to keep them."

Zhu Chenhao did not hesitate and said immediately.

"Yes~"

Liu Yangzheng nodded hurriedly.

"Did the first group of centaurs arrive in the South Seas?"

"I have already arrived in Nanyang, and I am training here in Nanyang, and I easily took Ceylon Island after two months of training by the Western United Commercial Bank, and we also plan to train for two months, so we also spent a lot of money to invite professional instructors from the Ming Royal Military Academy to train."

"But~"

"But what?"

Zhu Chenhao hurriedly asked, now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, according to the plan, in another month or so, he will set off.

First go to the South Seas to meet your own army, then stay in the South Seas for about a month, and finally take a boat to the east coast of Africa.

"Arms and weapons are too expensive, according to the will of the imperial court, all private individuals who go overseas to develop colonies must buy weapons and equipment from Miyun Iron Works."

"The quality of the weapons in the Miyun Iron Factory is indeed very good, but the price is too expensive."

"An ordinary knife costs ten taels of silver, and a musket costs hundreds of taels of silver, and as for artillery, it is even more expensive, a few thousand taels of silver for a cannon, which is too expensive."

Liu Yangzheng said with some anger: "Your Majesty, this is a robbery~ How can there be such expensive weapons and equipment." ”

"It's normal~"

"It's good that Your Majesty can allow everyone to go overseas, and if you want to make a lot of money, there's nothing."

"And this weapon and equipment was purchased from the Miyun Iron Factory, so you can roughly know the amount above."

Zhu Chenhao didn't think it and said, to be honest, Emperor Hongzhi can allow these vassal kings to go to sea, which is already a great gift, and it is already very benevolent to collect your wool through weapons and equipment.

"But it's too expensive~"

"Lord Wang, we can arm up to 5,000 people, according to the current Ming army, a soldier needs a pair of armor, a knife, a musket, this is still the lowest configuration, in addition to a number of artillery, a number of war horses, calculated, just to arm 5,000 people, we will spend millions of taels of silver."

Liu Yangzheng said with great heartache.

"Don't be afraid to spend money~"

"The Western United Trading Company has made a lot of money just by taking down the island of Ceylon, and I heard that the seized goods are worth tens of millions of taels of silver."

"The money you spend now will soon be recouped."

Zhu Chenhao doesn't care about spending more money, as long as it is spent on the blade, it is okay.

How can you go overseas to fight colonies, if the army is not strong?

The things of Miyun Iron Factory, he has also heard of it, the price is expensive, but the quality is absolutely just, and it is the designated arms supplier of the Ming army now.

The Ming army swept in all directions, and all the weapons and equipment used were produced by the Miyun Iron Factory, and each piece of weapons and equipment had a separate number on it, and there were quality problems, which could also be traced back to the craftsmen and workers of the production.

"What do the kings of Shu, Zheng, and Chu say?"

"The King of Shu plans to go to Tianzhu, because they feel that Tianzhu is closer to the Ming Dynasty, and the Western United Commercial Houses have already laid down Ceylon Island, so they can settle down here in Ceylon Island first."

"King Zheng is not ambitious, he only wants to go to Bonizhou here in Nanyang to fight a small place, so even the army has only prepared 2,000 people."

"The king of Chu, like the prince, has his eye on Africa, but when he looks at the northeast of Africa, he thinks that this is the throat of transportation, and it must be good to occupy this place."

"Uncle Chu has courage, unlike King Zheng and King Shu, who don't have any courage to do things."
