At the same time as the Ming Dynasty attacked the Japanese State, two very important events also happened in the Ming Dynasty, which were defined by later historians as the turning point of the Ming Dynasty's overseas policy change, the first thing was that the first Ming Governor abroad, that is, Zhao Lian, the Governor of the Ming Dynasty, entered Beijing.

Zhao Lian's entry into Beijing opened the history of the Ming Dynasty's foreign governorship, and at the same time, Zhao Lian also became the clarion call for the Ming Dynasty's colonization.

Another thing is that in Shandong, a fleet is assembled here, and the leader of this fleet is Wang Dong, the younger brother of Empress Daming and the son of Yongnian Bo Wang Wei. As the largest slave trader in the Ming Dynasty, the Wang family has done a very large business over the years, and this time it has organized a large fleet.

The fleet totals more than 200 ships of various kinds, and the transportation capacity is very strong, and they have only one goal this time, that is, the Wa Kingdom.

Forbidden City, Wenhua Palace.

Zhu Yijun glanced at Zhang Whale, who was standing beside him, and asked, "Zhao Lian has already left?" ”

"Back to the emperor, it's gone!" Zhang Jing also nodded and said: "Zhao Lian went to Tianjin, and then took a boat from Tianjin to the sea, and the Jinyi Guards and the subordinates of the Governor's Yamen also set off together. ”

Zhu Yijun nodded, although the battle report had not yet been transmitted, Zhu Yijun knew that Zhang Weixian was afraid that he had already started to do it.

Zhu Yijun also didn't think that the Japanese would cause any trouble to the Ming army, after the Korean War, the Japanese had no strength to fight, and the Ming and North Korea invested a total of 200,000 troops. Destroy the main combat power of the Wa Kingdom, and the merchants of the Ming Dynasty will also pour in.

The first caravan was a slave trader, and when the first slave trade fleet returned to Daming, it would only stimulate more merchants to go to sea.

"Has Tianjin replied?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Whale and asked again: "The affairs of the shipyard cannot be delayed. ”

After Zhu Yijun returned to the capital, he began to arrange this matter, and the second shipyard of the Ming Dynasty was about to be built, and Ge Dan chose Laizhou in Shandong, which was Qingdao in Shandong in the future. The largest civilian shipyard in the Ming Dynasty will be born here, all of which produce armed merchant ships.

With the experience of the Royal Shipyard, the armed merchant ships built here must be very fast, because the armed merchant ships are the simplified versions of the Ming warships.

When the first fleet of slave traders returned to Shandong, it was time for the first batch of armed merchant ships from the Shandong shipyard to be launched, and they would definitely be sold for a good price. Zhu Yijun has already made an order, that is, to build Sahuan, the more you build, the better, and when the time comes, all of them will be sold to merchants.

Once there are more ships, the Wa Kingdom will be trampled by the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and there will be no Wa Kingdom at that time.

In the end, it is impossible for the Wa Kingdom to satisfy the appetite of the Ming merchants, what they will do, Zhu Yijun doesn't have to think about it.

"Back to Your Majesty, the will has arrived in Tianjin, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has also begun to prepare the production area and manpower in Shandong, and the preliminary works of the shipyard have begun. After receiving the holy decree, the Tianjin Royal Shipyard also sent people over, and they went by boat, and it is estimated that they will arrive soon. ”

Zhang Whale replied again.

Zhu Yijun nodded, and soon Zhu Yijun will start selling armed warships, and Laizhou and Dengzhou in Shandong will also become new prosperous places for maritime trade. Equipping the merchant with force is actually equivalent to releasing another beast, but this is also a helpless thing, if the merchant ship of the merchant in this era is not armed with merchant ships, it will not be able to trade in the maritime merchant at all, and he will not have the strength to send people to escort him.

However, the construction of armed merchant ships must be well controlled, especially artillery, and must not be built indiscriminately.

Hearing that his arrangements had been well implemented, Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction: "Where is Qi Jiguang?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Qi Dashuai has already passed Jinzhou, and I believe that he will be able to enter Beijing in the near future." Zhang Whale has long been accustomed to Zhu Yijun changing topics back and forth, and after so many years, Zhang Whale's position can be stable, largely relying on being able to answer Zhu Yijun's questions anytime and anywhere.

Nodding slightly, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Wait until he comes back and let him repair for a while!" What happened to that Chahar Buyan Chechen? I asked him to hand over the heirloom jade seal, why hasn't there been any movement yet? Give him three days, and if he still hasn't answered, then don't blame me for not being unpredictable! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the old slave will send someone to deliver the decree!" Zhang Whale agreed and bowed.

It takes time for the Wa Kingdom to do it slowly, so the rest is simple, what Zhu Yijun needs to do is to dispatch people to target Chahar. There is the existence of Chahar in the north of the Ming Dynasty, which makes Zhu Yijun very unhappy, it is a good big place, and Chahar alone is in the way there.

"When Qi Jiguang comes back, I'll clean them up!" Zhu Yijun muttered while looking at the folds.

Although the Ming Dynasty was fighting abroad, the country of the Ming Dynasty was prosperous, commerce and trade were prosperous, and there were workers everywhere. The atmosphere of making a fortune has won greatly, and there are business opportunities everywhere, making it a very hot thing to do business. Since the start of the Korean War, the trade of the Ming Dynasty has doubled.

Countless workshops have popped up, and a few days ago, the tax department has asked Zhu Yijun for someone, and directly asked for half of the graduates of the civil service academy this time.

Now Daming is employing people everywhere, and the scale of the civil service school is constantly expanding, and now there are more than 20,000 students. However, it is still not enough, and all yamen are asking for people. The official Yu Lu that Zhu Yijun spent on was absolutely unimaginable before, and he was scared to death.

There are also many benefits, the imperial court's control over the local area is getting better and better, and Zhu Yijun's holy decree can also be better implemented.

After correcting the folds, Zhu Yijun stood up and stretched his waist, and said with a smile: "Finally finished reading!" ”

Zhang Whale handed over a cup of warm tea from the side, and the timing was just right.

After Zhu Yijun took the tea, he took a sip, then nodded slightly, and then turned to Zhang Whale and said, "Go and call Xu De from the inner factory!" ”

It didn't take long for Xu De from the inner factory to walk in from the outside, after seeing Zhu Yijun, Xu De hurriedly saluted, Zhu Yijun waved his hand, and waited until Xu De stood up, Zhu Yijun slowly said: "I brought you here today, I have something to tell you to do!" ”

"Please command!" Xu De hurriedly bowed down and said, his face was very serious, the emperor hadn't explained things for a long time, and since he had found himself this time, it would definitely be a big deal.

Zhu Yijun was not hypocritical, and said directly: "I intend to go to Nanjing to worship Emperor Taizu, I don't know how the people react, the Internal Affairs Office will investigate, and then report it!" ”
