Mao Jingwen is a junior, but he was named to make a decision on the dispute between the two elders. The matter itself is very embarrassing, as a junior, Mao Jingwen, no matter what decision he makes, he will offend one of them.

When he was feeling embarrassed, Mao Jingwen heard Hong Chengchou speak: "Your Majesty, you don't have to have any burden, you just need the emperor to say what he thinks is a fair decision." ”

If you believe Hong Chengchou's nonsense, Mao Jingwen is not himself. When Mao Wenlong talked to him just now, Mao Jingwenke always remembered the warning eyes.

Without rushing to express his decision, Mao Jingwen began to temporarily block the words of the two elders. After calming down and thinking about it, he soon realized that this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Mao Jingwen is not stupid, all he lacks now is experience. As the saying goes, what kind of person you follow will take what kind of road. has been deliberately cultivated by Hong Chengchou since he was a child, Mao Jingwen does not say that he is shrewd, but some small routines can still be distinguished.

At this moment, Mao Wenlong and Hong Chengchou are just taking the opportunity to test Mao Jingwen to see what kind of decision he will make when he encounters something.

After thinking about this, Mao Jingwen felt a lot more relaxed. Now he understands that his decisions are not afraid of offending people. Just take care to be reasonable and not biased towards anyone.

In this way, things are not so complicated, and Mao Jingwen quickly made a decision in his heart. He hesitated for a moment, then arched his hand to the two of them and said, "I feel that most of the wealth obtained by this navy should be attributed to the use of the navy. And the treasury is now empty and needs to be replenished as soon as possible, but it does not need to be completely filled. Therefore, my decision is to agree with the resolution that my father has just proposed. ”

Hong Chengchou and Mao Wenlong glanced at each other, and both of them showed smiling faces at the same time. Hong Chengchou said with a smile: "Since the emperor has said so, then let's do this thing!" ”

Mao Wenlong laughed twice after hearing this, and didn't say anything more. And Mao Jingwen breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this matter had been perfectly dealt with by himself.

The dull atmosphere dissipated, and the arrogance between Mao Wenlong and Hong Chengchou just now was long gone. Instead, the two talked and laughed vigorously, and the changes were so fast that Mao Jingwen on the side was still a little uncomfortable.

"Congratulations to the commander-in-chief, the wealth gained by the navy this time is enough for you to expand the sailor. At that time, there will be no opponents of the Dongjiang Army and Naval Division on the sea, and the vast sea will be at the mercy of the general army! Hong Chengchou smiled.

Although he finally gave in and didn't get all the money he wanted, it was not a pity. Moreover, Mao Wenlong's navy now has these windfalls, and there is no need to ask for money from the treasury in the future. This is also a disguised way to reduce the burden on Hong Chengchou.

"Mr. praised this very much, the building of the navy can not be achieved overnight, how can it be so easy to conquer the vast sea." Mao Wenlong had a lot of emotion in his words.

Hong Chengchou obviously didn't think so, he said with a smile: "Now the sea area of the Ming Dynasty is completely under the control of the general army, and the Yiren have all been cleared by the sailors. Even the wolverines who had been dancing the happiest and most difficult were driven away by the navy. Just ask the world is so big, who else in the vast sea is the opponent of the general army? ”

This is true, according to Hong Chengchou's perception of the sea, there are only two groups of people who have been entrenched in the Daming Sea. Now he has been expelled by Mao Wenlong, and he has no opponent in his mind.

Mao Wenlong knew that Hong Chengchou's vision was only in the sea area of Daming. He didn't even know anything about the wider sea outside, and it was normal for him to have such a perception now.

After pondering for a moment, Mao Wenlong felt that he should give Hong Chengchou and Mao Jingwen a moment to broaden their horizons. Nowadays, there is no opponent in the vast land of Daming, and you only need to manage it well to develop safely. And in the future, the real enemies will come from the sea, which is the way for other countries to invade and occupy the Ming Dynasty in the future.

Only by constantly strengthening the Ming navy now, the safety of the Ming Dynasty can be guaranteed in the future. Mao Wenlong knew that he might not be able to fulfill this ambition for the rest of his life, and all he could do was to try to leave some self-preservation for future generations.

"Sir, the world is unimaginably big, the vast sea has no end, and there are many places in it that are not inferior to our Ming Dynasty. We must not stand still, we must always be vigilant. As for those Japanese and Yi people, they are just some small shrimps, which are not worth mentioning at all. The truly formidable enemy has not yet arrived in the Ming Dynasty, but I am sure that one day in the future, those insatiable outsiders will come to invade our rich Ming with strong ships and cannons. ”

Speaking of this, Mao Wenlong's face was very serious, and he couldn't see that he was joking at all. After a pause, Mao Wenlong continued: "And this kind of thing will not be separated for too long, if nothing else, maybe in a few decades, on the other side of the distant sea, those outsiders will come." ”

Mao Jingwen frowned deeply after hearing this, and he arched his hand to Mao Wenlong for instructions: "Father, why are you so sure, is there any basis?" ”

Hong Chengchou looked at Mao Jingwen appreciatively, this is also what he wants to ask, and Mao Jingwen has already asked at the moment. It proves that his thinking has grown a lot.

"Jingwen, it seems that you have grown up a lot!" Hong Chengchou secretly sighed in his heart.

Mao Jingwen's growth also means that Hong Chengchou himself is old, which is an inevitable phenomenon. The terrible enemy that Mao Wenlong was worried about just now would come to the Ming Dynasty within a few decades. Hong Chengchou sighed that he would not be able to survive at that time no matter what, to witness how powerful those enemies were!

"Based on ......"

Mao Wenlong chuckled: "Do you need any more evidence?" You know that the Yi people are from far west, and they are not all from one country, but from many different capitals. Now these Yi people have not come to attack our Ming Dynasty in a big way, it is because they do not have enough strength. ”

The reason is very simple, but unfortunately Mao Jingwen and Hong Chengchou still don't understand. Limited cognition severely limits their imagination.

Looking at the confused and suspicious looks on the faces of the two, Mao Wenlong felt that it was time for them to go to the sea together to see each other. Only when they truly see the charm and horror of the sea will they truly wake up.

"Would you like to go to sea with me?" Mao Wenlong no longer explained, but opened his mouth to invite the two.

Hong Chengchou and Mao Jingwen's performances are different, the former is deep thinking and hesitating. The latter, on the other hand, was already shining with his eyes full of anticipation.
