After realizing the seriousness of the situation, these civil and military officials of the Nguyen regime suddenly lost their previous self-confidence, and their expressions began to become serious and solemn.

They never imagined that the Ming Dynasty was not going to use force against the Nguyen regime this time, but to wield the economic sword of overseas commerce that had never been used.

Although the military of the Ming Dynasty gradually declined, but the business showed a gradual prosperity trend, speaking of which has to mention the civil official group in the Ming Dynasty, it is their "unremitting efforts" that make the Ming court unable to profit from commerce, and then promote the prosperity of private commerce.

Once the Great Ming launched an economic offensive, then not to mention the Nguyen regime, even the entire Annam Kingdom is not worth mentioning.

The reason why the Nguyen regime's Pheu Phuc Port was able to develop into a prosperous and prosperous place was precisely because it was able to become a transit port thanks to the Ming Dynasty's ban on the sea, which in itself could not attract overseas merchants to come and do business.

The reason why Li Hongyu agreed to the king of Zhancheng was naturally to this point long ago, since he wanted to be in charge of the overseas trade of the Ming Dynasty, how could he not probe the situation of the Nanyang countries in advance, the art of war is cloudy: knowing oneself and knowing the other side can not be defeated in a hundred battles.

Therefore, Li Hongyu is not afraid that Nguyen Phuc Yuan will refuse his request, as long as the Pheu Phuoc Harbor of the Nguyen regime is abolished, then the Nguyen regime will become obedient, otherwise there will be no need for the Ming Dynasty to do it, and the Zheng regime will go and clean it up.

Although Li Hongyu was already confident, he couldn't make it clear to Wang Hong and Bai Cheng that it was good for him, the chief official, to know some things, and it was better to be nervous when he went out, so as not to make someone arrogant and slack.

"General, can we send someone to Piroboro Harbor to follow the path of the Ming envoy, so that he can open up to us."

Seeing that the civil and military officials present were silent, Ruan Fuyuan, who was sitting upright, frowned slightly, he knew that everyone could not do anything about this economic offensive of the Ming Dynasty, and then said to Ruan Hui.

Ruan Fuyuan's meaning is obvious, that is, to spend money to eliminate disasters and use heavy money to buy the envoys of the Ming Dynasty to get through this difficult situation in front of him, anyway, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty have nothing to do with the city of Zhancheng, and after receiving the benefits, they will naturally let them go.

"It's a good idea." Ruan Hui nodded when he heard this, he didn't have any good way now, if he could solve it with money, it would be the best.

"Who do you think is the right person to take a trip?" Seeing this, Ruan Phuc Yuan then asked, this incident is related to the future of the Ruan family's regime, so he wants to hear Ruan Hui's opinion.

"Lord Shecha is steady and scheming, but he can go to temptation." Ruan Hui groaned for a moment when he heard this, and looked at a thin middle-aged official standing beside him.

"That's what my lord thinks, too." Ruan Fuyuan immediately laughed and said to the emaciated middle-aged official, "Lord Shecha, you immediately take your belongings and rush to Pirobura Harbor to meet the envoys of the Ming Dynasty in the name of your own country. ”

"The subordinate obeys." Hearing this, the emaciated middle-aged official bowed to Ruan Fuyuan and replied in a deep voice.

"I hope this trip goes well." Ruan Fuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but pray secretly in his heart, Da Ming suddenly helped Zhancheng to come out and completely disrupted his square inches.

The emaciated middle-aged official was the chief official of the Thia Cha Division, one of the three divisions of the Nguyen regime, Nguyen Chao Van was the seventeenth grandson of Nguyen Luan, the minister of the Dinh Dynasty in the history of Annam, and the seventh grandson of Nguyen Di, the founder of the Later Lê Dynasty.

Like Ruan Hui, Ruan Chaowen was also Ruan Huang's confidant, and won the trust of Ruan Phuc Yuan, and was able to take charge of the Shecha Division.

After accepting Ruan Phuc Yuan's order, Ruan Chao Van did not dare to slack off and immediately prepared to set off for the port of Pi Luo Bu Luo, he was very aware of the seriousness of the situation, so he secretly sighed in his heart that the gap between the national strength of Annam and the Ming Dynasty was too big, and the Ruan regime could not withstand it under the threat of the trade blockade of the Ming Dynasty.

"Dad, I heard that you are going to Piroboro Harbor to meet the envoys of the Ming Dynasty?" When Nguyen Chao Van was explaining the affairs of his subordinate officials at the Yamen of the Shecha Division, a young official of 18 or 9 years old came to see him excitedly.

This young official was Nguyen Chao Van Van son, Nguyen Youyi, one of the most important figures in the history of the Nguyen regime, who led the army to resist the Trần regime until the border between the Trần and Nguyễn clans was demarcated, and was named Zhao Wu Hou by the Nguyen lord.

Ruan Youyi can be described as a young man, born in the 31st year of Wanli, when he was 16 years old, that is, in the 47th year of Wanli, he was among the best in the imperial examination of the Nguyen regime, and was deeply loved by Nguyen Phuc Yuan, and became a seven-rank official of the Nguyen regime.

According to the records of the historical records of the Kingdom of Annam, Ruan Youyi was both civil and military, knowledgeable and eloquent, and proficient in martial arts, and was a rare talent with both civil and military skills.

Moreover, in the first battle of Zheng Ruan, Ruan Youyi made a great contribution, forcing Zheng Zhu, who waved his army south, to withdraw his army and return to the north, and then became famous in one fell swoop.

"What, you want to go?" The so-called knowing son is like a father, seeing the excitement on Ruan Youyi's face, Ruan Chaowen asked with a smile.

"Dad, I want to see it and open my eyes." Ruan Youyi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded again and again.

"Go and take leave." Ruan Chaowen also wanted Ruan Youyi to practice, and then agreed slightly.

"Thank you, Dad." Ruan Youyi happily bowed his hand to Ruan Chaowen and left happily.

Ruan Chaowen looked at Ruan Youyi's back with a loving face, the future of their Ruan clan will depend on Ruan Youyi, so he is now trying his best to cultivate Ruan Youyi, hoping to ensure their clan's noble status in the Ruan clan's regime.

Worried that the Ming fleet would leave, Ruan Chaowen and Ruan Youyi and their entourage rushed to the port of Piroboro by boat day and night.

To their relief, when they arrived at the port of Pirobura, the Ming fleet was still there, and everyone was stunned when they saw the huge Zheng He treasure ship moored in the port, they had never seen such a huge ship like a hill.

"Dad, is this the treasure ship of the Ming Dynasty?" Ruan Youyi stood on the deck of the bow of the ship, looking at the three outstanding Zheng He treasure ships moored in the harbor from a distance, and for a long time, he looked at Ruan Chaowen, who also looked shocked.

"It should be, there seems to be no bigger ship in the world than the treasure ship of the Ming Dynasty!"

Ruan Chaowen came back to his senses when he heard this, and nodded subconsciously, he had never seen Zheng He's treasure ship, after all, after Zheng He went to the Western Ocean, with the Ming Dynasty's maritime ban policy, Zheng He's treasure ship was either destroyed or parked in the shipyard and rotted.

"It is said that the Ming Dynasty is now in decline, but it still has the ability to build such a huge treasure ship, which is worthy of the Heavenly Empire." Ruan Youyi glanced at the three Zheng He treasure ships, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"The Ming Dynasty has a territory of thousands of miles, a population of tens of thousands, and many prosperous and wealthy places, which are beyond our ability to compare with Annan."

Ruan Chaowen smiled bitterly when he heard this, the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, even if the Ming Dynasty is not strong, it is far stronger than Annan, and those civil and military officials in the Ruan regime who despise the Ming Dynasty are really a little arrogant.

Of course, Ruan Chaowen and Ruan Youyi will not know now that the current national strength of the Ming Dynasty is no longer able to build Zheng He's treasure ship, nor can it organize such a feat as going to the West, which is completely promoted by Li Hongyu gritting his teeth.

The news that Nguyen Phuc Yuan had sent an envoy to meet the Ming envoy soon spread to the port to discuss business with the British merchants who came to pan for gold.

Since Ruan Fuyuan had already made a move, Li Hongyu naturally wanted to accept the move, and sent someone to order Wang Hong to hang Ruan Chaowen first, and then continue to negotiate business with the British businessman.

Since the port of Pirobura is an important port in the South China Sea, there are naturally many Western adventurers, most of whom are naturally merchants.

Although Li Hongyu has the identity of a generalist, he knows Western and Chinese, and naturally shoulders the heavy responsibility of attracting investment for Daming.

In the evening, Zheng Hebao was on board.

"Scholar, I have already found out clearly, the envoy sent by Ruan Fuyuan this time is Ruan Chaowen, the chief official of the Shecha Division, who brought a lot of property, and it seems that he wants to give gifts."

After Li Hongyu came back, Wang Hong, who had been waiting for a long time, reported with a smile, it was obvious that Ruan Fuyuan wanted to spend money to eliminate the disaster and use the money to buy him and the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

"Ruan Chaowen?" Li Hongyu's brows furrowed when he heard this, he felt as if he had heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Why, the scholar knows about this person?" Wang Hong was a little surprised when he saw this, so he asked.

"No, I should have heard of him for the first time." Li Hongyu shook his head when he heard this, his memory is good, if he had read Ruan Chaowen's information, he would not have been so forgetful.

"Scholar, how should the lower officials deal with Ruan Chaowen?" Wang Hong thought that Li Hongyu just thought Ruan Chaowen's name was strange, so he didn't think about anything else, and then asked in a deep voice.

"He must have bought people's hearts this time."

Li Hongyu groaned for a moment when he heard this, and then said to Wang Hong quietly:

"Don't let the things he brought in vain, you accept them all, and tell him that the Champa Kingdom is the fifteen 'non-conquest countries' designated by Emperor Taizu, and the previous things are over, but since the king of Annan once took Shibi Mountain as the boundary and set up a stone monument, then Ruan Fuyuan should return the land south of Shibi Mountain!"

"The lower official knows what to do." Wang Hong smiled when he heard this, Li Hongyu was going to make Ruan Fuyuan's bamboo basket empty this time.

"Bring the list of people who are with Nguyen Chao Wen."

After Wang Hong left, Li Hongyu paced back and forth in the cabin a few times, and ordered the guards guarding the door in a deep voice, he always felt that he had heard the name Ruan Chaowen there, so he wanted to see the list of Ruan Chaowen's entourage, maybe it reminded him of something.

"Ruan Youyi?"

The guards quickly took the list, which listed the names and official positions of the accompanying officials this time, and Li Hongyu's eyes quickly fell on the name that was last in line, a name that he seemed to be very familiar with, so he frowned and recalled.

"Ruan Youyi...... Ruan Youyi...... Zhao Wu Hou! After silently reciting Ruan Youyi's name a few times in his heart, Li Hongyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

He remembered that when he traveled to Vietnam before, he had visited the statue of the famous Zhao Wu Hou in the history of Annam, and his name was Nguyen Youyi, according to the introduction of the tour guide at that time, Ruan Youyi's father seemed to be Nguyen Chaowen.

"You go and check if this Ruan Youyi is Ruan Chaowen's son."

After a little contemplation, Li Hongyu called the guards and instructed him to make sure that his guess was correct, if it was really the Ruan Youyi that people in later generations said, then this person was definitely a talent who could change the political situation of Annan!
