Li Zheng looked suspiciously at the map placed on the table.

Li Zheng's pupils, who had a somewhat disdainful expression, constricted, and when he saw that Dalong's two small seal fonts only occupied the tip of the iceberg of the entire grand map, it could be said that he was in a partial place, Li Zheng's eyes glared at Liu Mingzhi coldly: "Bold Liu Mingzhi, dare to bewitch the public, bewitch the king's heart, and deserve to be punished." ”

Liu Mingzhi knelt straight on the ground: "Your Majesty, the minister has no intention of bewitching the king's heart, Your Majesty sits on the mountains and rivers of the world, and must have a clear understanding of the map of the Great Dragon and the Jin Kingdom and the grassland, Your Majesty can compare it carefully, if there is a mistake, the Chichen is willing to guarantee the head of the item." ”

Staring at Liu Mingzhi's sincere expression, Li Zheng had to look at the map on the table again, he had already remembered the borders of the three countries clearly, and he was a little surprised to see the clear boundaries on the map, although it was only a general map, but compared with the map in his mind, it was eight or nine.

This is the Western Regions? Li Zheng bent down and stared intently at the map on the table one by one, this is Siam, this is Goguryeo. Isn't there a deserted Gobi Desert north of the Turks, how can it be marked with Tsarist Russia, is there really a territory north of the vast desert that I don't know?

How is it possible, how can the territory of India be bigger than my world, the sea is endless, the waves are monstrous, how can there be an island in the midst of this raging waves, is the Wa Kingdom the name of this island? It's not true, I won't believe it.

"Liu Mingzhi, even if you use the head of the item to vouch, I can't believe that there are still places in the world that I don't know, if you can't convince me, I will behead you in an instant."

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has his own evidence to prove the authenticity of this map."

"Speak."

"Your Majesty, the First Emperor unified the six countries and established the Qin State, which is the great unity of the world, and he called himself the First Emperor, the car is on the same track, and the book is the same, which can be described as a public watch for thousands of years, but the First Emperor has also done a foolish thing for ten thousand years, Your Majesty should know what the minister means."

Li Zheng put his hands behind his back: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are the way of heaven, the first emperor vainly tried to live forever, and once sent Fang Shi Xu Fu to the three immortal mountains in the East China Sea to find the elixir, but Fang Shi Xu Fu disappeared as soon as he went, and the first emperor finally died on the Eastern Patrol Road." ”

"Your Majesty, can the minister get up and reply?" Liu Mingzhi felt that his knees were already sore and unbearable.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Mingzhi pointed to the Wa Kingdom on the map: "Your Majesty, please see, Fang Shi Xu Fu took a boat to the east to find the three immortal mountains in the East China Sea, but the immortal road is not something that Xu Fu and a mortal can find, Xu Fu was afraid that the first emperor would punish him, so he found an island and took the three thousand boys and girls on the ship to live in seclusion here, which is the Wa Kingdom here." ”

Li Zheng pondered for a while: "In this way, isn't my Han family's son Lang the ancestor of the Japanese people?" ”

The corners of Liu Mingzhi's mouth twitched, and he laughed twice: "It's not wrong to say that we are the ancestors of the Japanese people." ”

"I still can't believe it, what you're saying is too ethereal."

"Your Majesty knows the origin of Buddhism?"

"What does this have to do with Buddhism?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know, this Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains during the Han Dynasty, and my Han sect is Taoism, but I don't know why for a long time, we not only neglected Taoist culture, but instead worshiped those bald donkeys, Your Majesty is not curious about where Buddhism came from?"

"Didn't you come from the Western Regions?"

"No, no, Your Majesty, please see, Buddhism originated here, India, the Buddha Shakyamuni was born here, and by chance it was introduced to my Central Plains."

Li Zheng looked at the territory on the map, which was twice as large as the big dragon, and was stunned.

"Your Majesty, if you are still unconvinced, the minister still has something to report."

"Speak."

"A few months ago, the minister saw the Japanese people in the land south of the Yangtze River crossing the vast ocean and coming to the land of my great dragon, which shows that the people of the Japanese country can already sail and trade on the sea."

"What did you see with your own eyes? Or did you hear about it? ”

"The minister saw with his own eyes, in order to find out the situation of the Japanese people's sea ships, the minister also brought this line of Japanese people to his home as guests, but these Sun thieves were very tight-mouthed, and the minister got very little information."

"The blue waves above the sea are surging, and it is full of seawater, what are you doing to find out the news of the sea ship?"

"The minister dared to ask me if the sailor had ever been to sea? Sail thousands of miles? ”

"The sailors of the imperial court are all guarding the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Jianghuai River, what are they doing at sea?"

"Your Majesty, the sea frontier is the foundation of the country, a hundred years of planning, Your Majesty must not underestimate the waves of the sea, you must know that this sea is rich in products, as long as there are enough sea ships to go to sea to salvage, you can supply my Dalong coastal people without worrying about food and clothing, eat meat at once, the sea fish is delicious, as long as it is dried into dried fish, not only can it be preserved for a long time without mold, but also can sell the dried sea fish to all parts of Dalong, when the time comes, the family has surplus grain, the coastal people can also earn money, there are many fish in the sea, as long as they are good at making good use of it, my Dalong Dynasty will no longer have EF everywhere, Let's ask the Three No Emperors to carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future, which monarch can ensure that there are no starving people in the country. ”

Liu Mingzhi's words are definitely not eloquent, as far as the development of the fishing industry in the Dalong Dynasty is concerned, he really looks at building sea boats to fish, and the sea fish in the sea are enough for the people of the world to eat for ten years.

However, it cannot be salvaged endlessly, and it is difficult to recover once the ecological environment is damaged.

Li Zheng's face was a little ruddy, and Liu Mingzhi's words hit his heart, as an emperor, who doesn't want to be the first emperor through the ages to carry on the past and forge ahead into the future.

"What you said is true?"

"The minister is willing to make a military order, as long as he goes out to sea to fish, he will definitely make my people have enough food and clothing, and there are countless fish in the sea, once the trade route is opened, only the tax can add about 20 million taels of silver to my Dalong treasury, Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, now the salt and iron tax, commercial tax, and tax in the treasury are only twenty or thirty million taels of silver, and the status of the merchant is lowly, and the minister has a deep understanding, but once the merchant operates, he can lose a country in an instant."

Li Zheng didn't hear Liu Mingzhi's words at all. His mind was all occupied by the number of twenty million taels of silver, and his eyes exuded a strong desire, money, money, or money.

"Liu Mingzhi, do you know what you are talking about? Do you know what the concept of 20 million taels of silver is? With 20 million taels of silver, in addition to the six guards guarding the northern frontier, I can immediately form a fully equipped army of 300,000 troops, at that time, not to mention the Jin State and the Turks, even if the two countries join forces, I can make it collapse in an instant, I waited for 30 years to dominate the world, but the treasury has no silver, no soldiers available, food and salary are not enough, I have made a perfect strategy, but there is no silver, the day I ascended the throne was very clear, the war is the treasury, otherwise everything is empty talk, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was able to attack the Xiongnu in the north, But without the materials accumulated by Wenjing for two generations, what will he fight? War horses need grain and grass, soldiers need food, and they need to soothe the silver, and fighting is a bottomless pit, and I can't afford to fight. ”

"Your Majesty, the barbarians are weak for a while, and I don't know how many heroes there are in China, but now Your Majesty has the heart to annex the Eight Desolations and Liuhe, and the meaning of encompassing the land of Kyushu is the luck of my dynasty and the luck of the people of the world."

Liu Mingzhi knew that the emperor had already believed about sixty percent of his words, as long as he informed his overseas countries that there were countless gold and silver everywhere and countless gems.

Li Zheng, who didn't want to pay for thirty mirrors, must be blushing, the Maritime Silk Road must be opened, and Liu Mingzhi of later generations knows how huge the interests are.
