"Son, come here~"

Liu Jin is nursing a baby in his own house, Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen each gave birth to a son to Liu Jin, but in terms of calculation, Liu Jin's time to accompany the two little ones is very limited.

is either busy with the affairs of the court or the affairs of the industry under his command, and rarely has time to play with his children.

Today, when I finally had time, Liu Jin also decided to play with the children at home.

"Stinky Boy ~ Stinky Boy ~"

However, Liu Jin had just been playing for a while, and immediately a rough voice came over.

"Alas~ I can't play with you again."

Liu Jin knew who was coming as soon as he heard it, and immediately shook his head helplessly, and said to the little guy with some apologies.

Soon, Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, Xu Guangzuo, and Zhou Yu also came over with smiles on their faces.

"You still have time to take care of the children, and you can really stay idle."

Zhang Mao was also not polite, he sat down and looked at the children who were taken down, Zhang Mao also sighed.

Now the whole capital is boiling, and after the morning of the Governor of Ceylon's dedication, the old and young masters of the capital are discussing the affairs of the overseas colonies.

As long as there is a little bit of energy, they are walking around, discussing the formation of a trading house to fight overseas colonies.

Without it, my eyes are red!

The treasures offered to Emperor Hongzhi by the governor of Ceylon may add up to more than 10 million taels of silver, which is such a huge fortune.

On the one hand, it shows that they are really wealthy, but on the other hand, it also shows the wealth of Ceylon.

It is said that the value of the property seized by the Western United Trading Company on Ceylon Island alone exceeded more than 30 million taels of silver, so it was able to easily take out tens of millions of taels of silver and present it to Emperor Hongzhi.

With such a huge wealth, the Western United Trading Company only dispatched 5,000 troops and an entourage of about 5,000 people to fight it, and its own casualties were negligible.

Having acquired such a huge fortune at a very small price, who is not blushing?

The significance of Ceylon is too great, far from the little gem it produces can be measured, with the possession of Ceylon, the Western United Trading House is on the cusp of the era of private colonization.

In the future, the place that the Western United Commercial Bank can occupy will be very vast, not to mention that Tianzhu in the north of Ceylon Island has almost become the meat in the mouth of the Western United Commercial Bank.

People with energy in the capital can't sit still.

The same is true for him Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, Xu Guangzuo, and Zhou Yu can't sit still, so they also came to find Liu Jin together.

"Gong Zhang, what's wrong with you?"

"If your eyes are red, do you have pink eye?"

Liu Jin looked at Zhang Mao, smiled and said.

"Stinky boy, you're still kidding me."

"Do you know that if we don't do it again, I'm afraid there will be no private colonies in the whole world in the future."

"The pair of straw bales of the Zhang brothers are now organizing a team to go overseas to occupy a few colonies, and the vassal kings of my Daming Dynasty are now all working hard to prepare to go to Haiwa to occupy the colony."

"Coupled with large and small trading houses, powerful clans and wealthy families in various places, etc., there are too many people who are ready to go overseas to fight colonies, why are you not in a hurry at all?"

Zhang Maohu glared at Liu Jin, this kid didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and he didn't know what he thought.

"What's the hurry?"

"Don't we have a Tianjin ocean trading company, just here in the Golden Continent, the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire use gold and silver to build pyramids for us every year, and you have not received the same gold and silver that was shipped back last time?"

Liu Jin smiled and replied.

"That's different, that's our partnership with Your Majesty and the Prince, and it's still Your Majesty's, and we still need to be the same as the Western United Trading House, and our families will work together to build a colony overseas, so that what will happen in the future, our families will at least have a way out, right?"

Zhang Mao shook his head helplessly and said.

Although he is already the grandfather of the country, and he has saved a huge amount of wealth with Liu Jin in the past few years, he still has to think about leaving a way back for his Zhang family.

A private colony overseas is a very good choice, and a private colony, although still nominally a Ming dynasty, is essentially no different from a small kingdom.

A big reason why everyone is so excited now is because they can have their own small kingdom overseas, and such a small kingdom can be passed on forever, which is like laying a foundation.

It doesn't need to be big, just have a piece of land, and finally leave a piece of land for future generations.

Zhu Fu, Xu Guangzuo, and Zhou Yu next to him also nodded straight, Zhang Mao was right.

Since ancient times, the change of dynasties, the change of ministers and nobles in the court is also very frequent, once a son of heaven and a courtier, now he is a red man around the emperor, but tomorrow may not be, leaving a way back for himself, it is also very necessary.

In the past, there was no choice, but now that there is a choice, it is natural to find a way to leave a way back for yourself and your children and grandchildren.

"Yes, Liu Jin, our family is also sharing weal and woe now, and we have laid down a piece of land overseas together, and if we manage it well, we can have one more way out in the future."

Xu Guangzuo also nodded solemnly and said.

His words also made Liu Jin ponder, speaking of which, several families are indeed sharing weal and woe now, a bit like the major families in the Dream of Red Mansions.

Thinking about the endings of several major families in the Dream of Red Mansions, Liu Jin also nodded solemnly.

Maybe it is time to leave one more way back for yourself and your descendants, in the Ming Dynasty, everything is in the hands of the emperor, and it is better to have your fate in your own hands.

Although he is a big celebrity around Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi has always been generous and benevolent, and Zhu Houzhao doesn't look like a person who kills heroes, but who can tell the future clearly?

If Zhu Houzhao hadn't given birth to a child, as in history, what would happen to him when the old Zhu family's country fell into Zhu Houxi's hands?

Zhu Houxi's classmate is as wise as a fox, extremely suspicious, and very good at using power and imperial techniques.

Be prepared for danger in times of peace and think more about the future.

After thinking about these things clearly, Liu Jin thought for a while and said, "Where do you want to fight?" ”

Hearing Liu Jin's words, several people immediately smiled slightly.

Zhang Mao opened a world map, took out a pen, circled the southernmost part of Africa on the map, and said, "We want to occupy this place." ”

"First of all, like the United Western Commercial Firm, we first occupied this large island in the southeast of Africa, and then used this island as a springboard, and then occupied the entire southern tip of Africa."

"I've heard you say that the southern tip of Africa is rich in gold, silver, and diamonds, and the land here is fertile, the climate is humid, and the geographical location is also quite good, and it is at the transit point of important shipping routes, and it is far enough from Daming."

"Madagascar?"

"South Africa?"

When Liu Jin saw it, he was also slightly stunned, and the figure of Uncle Black appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but shake his head, Liu Jin didn't want his descendants to mix with these chimpanzees.

"These places are not very good, where is the place of Kunlunnu."

Liu Jin thought for a while and said, it is better to go to the South Golden Continent here, the South Golden Continent has a vast area and fertile land, not to mention anything else, in the future, the Pampas grassland alone will be enough for his descendants to have endless beef.

"What's so bad about it~"

"The conditions of this place are very good, I have already talked to Du Mingen, he was almost going to arrive at these places last time, but he also knows some information about these places."

"He said that those Kunlun slaves are very backward, they still live in thatched huts, they don't know anything, they don't understand anything, and they are too lazy to die, and it is very easy to deal with them, and a team of 1,000 people is enough to lay down a large vast land."

Xu Guangzuo said disapprerovantly, for this matter, he had already done enough homework in advance and studied it carefully.

"Yes, yes, this place is a good place, in the future, things will come and go, and it will be enough to collect tolls without worrying about food and clothing."

Zhang Mao stared at the map, his eyes shining, this is a good place, he has studied it for a long time before deciding on it.

"I heard that King Ning is also interested in Africa, if we start slowly, I'm afraid we will have to let King Ning occupy it at that time."

Zhu Fu also nodded and said, will the place that King Ning likes be poor?

"It's okay to occupy this place, but the indigenous people in Africa must be cleaned up, and they must not be kept, because if you keep these Kunlun slaves, there will be endless disasters."

Liu Jin thought about it and nodded slightly, the place is indeed a good place, and in the world, this land is a treasure land.

When you think about it, South Africa, which was ruled by white people, was the only developed country in Africa, and it also had its own mushroom bombs, which were famous all over the world in both agriculture and industry.

But if the problem of Kunlun Nu is not solved, no matter how good this place is, it is also the White Tower, so if you really want to occupy this place, in Liu Jin's opinion, all the Kunlun Nu on this land must be solved.

Whether it's driven away or sold to other places, in short, they can't be left behind, otherwise they will really have endless troubles in the future.

Thinking about South Africa, which has changed from a developed country to a developing country, and then thinking about some things in later generations, Liu Jindun felt that in fact, the land of the Northern Golden Continent was the best, the land was vast, flat, and very fertile, rich in resources, it was simply the chosen place, which was his most ideal private colony.

Well, you can't put your eggs in one basket, and you can quietly make a block here.
