Li Jin saw Guo Zhiyuan looking at him, and vaguely guessed that Guo Zhiyuan might be reusing himself, so he quickly sat up straight and puffed up his chest, but he was a little incredulous, he had led people to kill Guo Zhiyuan at sea, Guo Zhiyuan could spare his dog's life and let him live until now It is extremely merciful, how could he reuse himself and hand over the entire route to himself?

Guo Zhiyuan looked at Li Jin's appearance of suffering and losing and was secretly amused, and finally decided to give this guy a chance, and said with a smile: "The third route is the route to Cochin (now Vietnam), Siam (now Thailand) and other countries, so Li Jin is in charge, let Wang Xi assist you, and at the same time you are also responsible for the contact with the Dutch, didn't I promise them to achieve trade with the Ming Dynasty before?" Now they can cash in, but they can only come to Dongfu, and they can't go to the interior of Fujian to trade directly......"

Li Jin couldn't believe his ears, and said incoherently with excitement: "Big... Adults are reinvented with the villain, and the small... It's hard for a villain to be a cow or a horse for an adult... It's hard to repay, small... Villain ......"

Guo Zhiyuan waved his hand and said: "Don't show your loyalty, you will deal with the Dutch on behalf of me in the future, and you must not be servile and fall into my Ming national prestige!" ……”

As he spoke, he turned to Li Dan and Sun Chuan and said, "You two are the same, you must remember that it is not my race." His heart will be different! In addition, I have to give you a task, which is to find a way to get their advanced firearms, crop seeds and other materials that I don't have in the Ming Dynasty from these Daxi people, and to find ways to recruit Daxi craftsmen and talents who know how to build ships, manufacture firearms, operate artillery, etc., and find ways to recruit them......."

Li Dan and the other three were in a state of mind, and they also realized the heavy responsibility on their shoulders, Guo Zhiyuan This is a big game of chess, not only to make money through the sea trade business, but also to strengthen himself by learning the advanced technology of the Westerners, and hurriedly stood up and said in unison: "I am willing to die for the adult!" ”

Even Li Jin has been reused by Guo Zhiyuan, Zhao Shizhen can't sit still, as a core member of Guo Zhiyuan's team, he has not been able to follow Guo Zhiyuan for more than a year, and he feels a little alienated, and now Xu Guangqi and they are all entrusted with important tasks by Guo Zhiyuan, but he is not mentioned, which makes him feel a little unbalanced, but his self-respecting identity is not easy to take the initiative to ask, but his face is a little unsightly.

Of course, Guo Zhiyuan has not forgotten Zhao Shizhen, Zhao Shizhen's development of a flintlock pistol and a manned hot air balloon for him is definitely a great achievement, but because of Zhu Changluo's relationship, Guo Zhiyuan can't give Zhao Shizhen an official identity, glanced at Zhao Shizhen, who was uncertain, and continued: "The second financial road that comes to mind is to develop the manufacturing industry in Dongfan, our cigarette workshops and garment workshops will be opened in Dongfan, and we will also use the characteristics of Dongfan to open salt workshops, wine-making workshops, tea-making workshops, etc. In addition to civilian manufacturing, we also need to develop shipbuilding, firearms manufacturing and other manufacturing workshops that can be used for the military, which is to ask Mr. Zhao! Among the surviving merchants we rescued from Luzon, there were many skilled craftsmen, and I handed them all over to Mr. Zhao for dispatch, and when the new immigrants arrived, there were also many craftsmen in them, and Mr. Zhao gave priority to selecting them......

Everyone was stunned by Guo Zhiyuan's grand plan, Guo Zhiyuan really made a big move, they can imagine how prosperous Dongfan will be in the future according to Guo Zhiyuan's plan! Zhao Shizhen was even more excited, he had been depressed, and now he finally had a platform to show his strength, so excited that he rubbed his fists and said: "Great!" That's great! The old man has finally applied what he has learned in his life! ……”

Only Xu Guangqi wants to speak and stop, Guo Zhiyuan paved the stall so big, and he needs more money, although the two financial roads Guo Zhiyuan said have bright prospects, it takes time to see the results, which is far from quenching the thirst, where does the start-up capital needed come from?

Guo Zhiyuan glanced at Xu Guangqi, did not rush to explain, and continued: "The third financial route that comes to mind is to develop the commerce of Dongfan, only with commerce can it circulate, and only with circulation can it gather wealth, so I am ready to open Dayuan, Jilong Bay, and Beigang as free trade ports, and allow me to land and conduct free trade with Daming merchants and Daxi merchants, and open up a special free trade bazaar, of course, we are going to collect commercial trade tax......"

Xu Guangqi couldn't hold back any longer, and questioned: "The three financial paths mentioned by the adults are good, but far water can't quench the thirst, where does the start-up capital come from?" We don't have enough money on hand! In addition, if free trade is opened, public security is also a big problem, if there are spies mixed in, all the truth and truth on our island will be leaked, and it is impossible to prevent it! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan smiled confidently and said with a smile: "I'll think of a way to start the capital, I also consider the issue of public security, when we build the city, we can do a good job in architectural planning, separate open areas from open areas, strengthen the guards of non-open areas, and at the same time do a good job in the identity screening of people who land on the island, there should be no big problems, a little clown, we are not afraid of coming!" ……”

Xu Guangqi saw that Guo Zhiyuan was full of confidence, so it was not good to say anything, everyone was enthusiastic and morale was high by Guo Zhiyuan's grand plan, and it would be a little disappointing to argue with Guo Zhiyuan at this time. Guo Zhiyuan mustered up everyone's enthusiasm, and also achieved his expected effect, stood up and bowed to everyone: "Time does not wait for me, the development of Dongfan will be entrusted to you!" ……”

Everyone hurriedly responded in unison: "I am willing to die for my lord!" ”

After the meeting, Guo Zhiyuan summoned Li Dan, Sun Chuan, and Li Jin alone, and the opening of the three routes was the top priority of his entire plan, and there were many arrangements that needed to be made, and they must start immediately.

The doubts in Xu Guangqi's heart have not been dispelled, but Guo Zhiyuan has been talking to Li Dan and the three of them alone, and he is not easy to disturb, and when Li Dan and the three of them left, he came to Guo Zhiyuan with a lot of drawings, and behind him was followed by a middle-aged man in a cloth shirt, this middle-aged man had many scars on his face, as if there were several centipedes crawling on his face, which looked really terrifying!

Although Guo Zhiyuan is not a person who judges people by their appearance, he was also shocked when he saw the face of this middle-aged man, but he knew that since Xu Guangqi brought this person to see him, this person must be unusual, so he forced his composure and pointed at the middle-aged man and asked, "Mr. Xu, who is this?" ……”
