The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty

The peaks turned around, and suddenly the topic seemed to be a little heavy, and the temperature in the room seemed to rise suddenly, Zheng Zhilong wiped the sweat on his head, and his heart was anxious.

Qin Haoming's words clearly meant something.

Nowadays, the whole of Fujian, and even the entire Daming Sea Road, it is no exaggeration to say that the Zheng family is among them. Of course, there are also maritime merchants and local officials from Fujian who travel from south to north.

The intricate relationship of interests had already been distributed before Qin Haoming came.

It's just that before this, the Zheng family belonged to the people who shared the cake with a knife.

But now that Qin Haoming is here, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers behind him who are powerful inside and outside the Ming Dynasty, are they willing to become the ones who are assigned?

The answer is probably no, as the governor of the two provinces, the real feudal official, why should people be in control?

But if you want to give up your vested interests, Zheng Zhilong can't accept it.

Suddenly, there was an eerie silence in the small sauna.

"People die for money, birds die for food, it's really a good point."

Seeing this situation, Qin Haoming shook his head in front of Zheng Zhilong and sighed in a low voice and said bluntly, "The most difficult thing in life is to make trade-offs, and it is really difficult to spit out the benefits you have in hand."

But has Zheng Zongbing seriously thought about it, if this continues, the Zheng family has no other way but to rebel, and the governor really doesn't want to meet the Zheng family. ”

"Please Qin Governor Mingjian, the Zheng family has nothing to think about?"

Qin Haoming's naked words made Zheng Zhilong break out in a cold sweat when he heard it, and said to Qin Haoming in a hurry.

"Could it be that Qin Du wants to unload the mill and kill the donkey?"

Zheng Zhibao on the side also stood up aggressively, and the guards shouted in front of Zheng Zhilong.

Qin Haoming didn't move like a mountain, pouted his lips and whispered disdainfully to Zheng Zhibao, "Unload the mill and kill the donkey? No brains! Can you still talk properly?

If I want to deal with you, I can still sit here and be in the company of beautiful women. ”

Zheng Zhilong glared at Zheng Zhibao, pulled him to sit down, and then saluted and said, "Please Governor Qin look at Yun Niang's face and give him an official." ”

Waving his hand to let the Mongolian woman who was in charge of serving withdraw, there were only three people left in the sauna, Qin Haoming said solemnly: "Zheng Zongbing, may I ask how much the Zheng family earns in a year?" What is the annual income of the Ming treasury?

Yes, the king of the Ming Dynasty is also rich and rivals, but there are still royal restrictions, and he is not allowed to leave the fiefdom for the rest of his life, and there are no soldiers and horses, what about you?

Ask yourself, which king in all dynasties allowed this? Imagine, if the rebels in the northwest are exterminated and the Jiannu in the northeast surrender, do you think it will be the situation?

At that time, do you think the Son of Heaven will allow the emergence of a state within a state? And where should the hundreds of people in the Zheng family go? ”

Qin Haoming's eyes were blazing, staring at Zheng Zhilong, who was silently speechless and had a tangled face, and asked in a loud voice, and directly lifted this coat.

After this period of running-in and observation, Qin Haoming found that Zheng Zhilong not only had no objections, but also treated the people well and acted introverted.

Compared with Liu Zeqing, Zuo Liangyu and others, it is simply incomparable.

Therefore, today he pressed tightly to test Zheng Zhilong to see if he could take it for his own use or cooperate for a win-win situation.

This is too important, even crucial, for his future development.

"Please advise Governor Qin, what should an official do to relieve the imperial court, and at the same time satisfy the brothers around him?"

After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Zhilong's eyes closed slightly, sighed, and threw the question to Qin Haoming.

He also has a tentative mind, soft and hard, neither humble nor arrogant.

No matter what you Qin Haoming said, at present, the court can't do anything about me, this is certain, it is impossible to let him put down everything with a word, this is unrealistic.

"Share!" Qin Haoming slowly spit out three words in his mouth, and his eyes became sharper, "inside and outside the Guan, the Korean and the Wa Kingdom, the East China Sea and the South Sea, these gold mountains and silver seas are all on the sea."

There is no reason why all the Haili in the world are eaten by the Zheng family, but the court has nothing, how can the Son of Heaven endure it? Even the Governor will not tolerate it!

Otherwise, wouldn't the governors of these two provinces be ornaments? How will the 150,000 Dingnan army be supported in the future? ”

Qin Haoming's face turned red, his fists were clenched, and he looked loyal and patriotic, and no one couldn't help but believe it.

"One hundred and fifty thousand? Dingnan Army? ”

Zheng Zhibao was confused and exclaimed loudly.

"50,000 in Fujian, 50,000 in Guangzhou, and 50,000 in the Navy to form the Dingnan Army, which was a secret task issued by the Son of Heaven, was originally for the purpose of counterattacking Jiannu.

But if the Zheng family disobeys the orders of the imperial court, they will also deal with ......"

Shaking his head, Qin Haoming looked helpless, and said both true and false.

In the future, large-scale recruitment will definitely not be able to hide from anyone, let alone the Zheng family. Rather than this, it is better to be virtual and real.

"How do you share it?"

Zheng Zhilong knew about the recruitment of troops in the Governor's Palace, but he didn't know that there were as many as 150,000, and when he was worried, he hurriedly asked Qin Haoming about the plan he shared.

"The establishment of the General Administration of Customs, located in Quanzhou or Xiamen, you and I personnel at the same time to settle in charge, unified management, a quarter of a profit.

You, me, and the Son of Heaven are divided into three, three, and four. ”

Qin Haoming jumped with an excited light and said to Zheng Zhilong.

"But the Son of Heaven already has a city division, if you divide another share, it seems ......"

Zheng Zhilong's face was entangled, ten percent became three percent, and suddenly, it was difficult for anyone to accept it.

"In the future, there will be no municipal shipping department, only the General Administration of Customs. Moreover, the charges will not be charged at three thousand taels of silver per ship, but at one-tenth of the total price of the goods.

How about it, two generals, in this way, your income is not less than what it is now, can this governor share it like this? ”

Qin Haoming said to the Zheng family brothers with a smile.

Who knows, Zheng Zhibao jumped up in shock and shouted in surprise, "One tenth? Qin Du, by all means, it will provoke them to rebound.

Behind the maritime merchants are all clans and eunuchs, which are not easy to deal with, and if you want to use force, you may not recover.

It turns out that our Zheng family collects 3,000 per ship, one of the South China Sea is in the hands of the Zheng family, and the other is that for them, they can't look down on just 3,000 taels of silver, if they ......"

"It's just protection money. The wind and waves are strong, the bandits are rampant, the profit is ten times, and safety comes first. You and I work together to protect the lives of maritime merchants, and the price of a shipload is one-tenth of the price, is it much, it should not be much. ”

Qin Haoming shook his head and replied disapprerovingly.

"That's a lot." Zheng Zhilong nodded, and said with a bitter face: "Governor Qin, a thousand-material sea ship, according to the value of the goods, is basically around hundreds of thousands.

If it is a large sea ship of 2,000 materials, they are all powerful sea merchants, and the goods on board are more valuable, and the value of the goods may be 2 million.

If it is collected at a tenth of the rate, it will cost 200,000 taels of silver for one trip, and it is impossible for them to pay it honestly.

If you use the strong and rob their ships, the things behind are quite tricky. ”

Qin Haoming's appetite was really beyond Zheng Zhilong's expectations, and he actually raised the price dozens of times, which can only be described as crazy.
