"Don't let me down, you two, I will personally go to Fujian to supervise my Daming Sailor. Xiong Tingbi has recently trained the new army, and the two of them can also go and see it. Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"No." Hearing that Zhu Youxiao was going to go to Fujian in person, the two of them inevitably became a little nervous.

……

As soon as Nan Juyi left the palace, he immediately rushed to Han Yi's mansion. Although Nan Juyi is not a member of the Donglin Party, the person Nan Juyi can think of now is Han Yi. What Zhu Youxiao said today really shocked him, relatively speaking, he can still accept the opening of the sea, but Zhu Youxiao wants to build a powerful navy and fight a decisive battle with the barbarians in the future, he can't agree at all.

"Your Majesty really said that?" Han Yi asked.

"Indeed, the Ming Dynasty is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and the treasury is empty, but His Majesty is ready to take out five million taels of silver to form a new Fujian Navy. My Ming Dynasty pays less than 10 million taels in taxes a year, but His Majesty wants to give 5 million taels to the Fujian sailors. Nan Juyi said.

"This official also heard that His Majesty agreed to give Yuan Keli ten million taels of silver to form the Shandong Water Division." Gao Panlong said.

Gao Panlong is one of the leaders of the Donglin Party, and is currently the Inspectorate of Zuodu Yushi, and has a very good relationship with Yuan Keli. In history, Yuan Keli joined the party struggle and had a great relationship with Gao Panlong.

"Your Majesty's recent series of measures are all silver from Nenu, and as far as I know, Nenu doesn't have much silver now, where does this money come from? Could it be that the rumors that there was silver hidden in the palace during the Wanli period are true? Han Yi said.

"If there is, there must be news coming out of the palace, and it is impossible not to have a little news." Gao Panlong said.

"The source of the silver is not the key, the lower officials are afraid that Your Majesty will embark on the road of reckless military force, and the Han and Tang dynasties will die by force, and the lower officials must advise Your Majesty to give up such an idea." Nan Juyi said.

"Governor of the South, this matter should not be rushed, wait until tomorrow morning to see how Your Majesty and Hongmao and Francois and other countries discuss the matter of trade, and then make a decision." Han Yi comforted.

"Southern Imperial History, now the construction of the prisoner is raging, often knocking on the pass, since the battle of Salhu, the construction of its momentum has become a big problem, has become a big trouble for the Ming Dynasty. It is really unwise to oppose His Majesty's move to strengthen the army now, and other officials in the court will certainly not support it, unless the matter is discussed after the pacification of Jianjiao. Gao Panlong also discouraged.

Just listened to Nan Juyi's words, Han Yi had another idea in his mind, during this time the rumors of Jingshi about someone discovering Jinshan overseas were boiling, it can be said that the entire Jingshi and even the people of Beizhi were talking about this matter after tea and dinner, and it was also rumored outside that Wang Liqian, the palm print eunuch of the master of ceremonies, Li Yongzhen, the governor of Dongchang, and Zhang Tianshi of the Zhengyi Sect have all donated money to fund the mining of Jinshan, of course, this funding is rewarded, and the monthly interest rate is as high as two coins of silver.

Although the Ming Law stipulates that the monthly interest shall not be higher than three cents of silver, this refers to the interest received by the borrower, and now the borrower is willing to pay two cents of silver per month, and the government naturally has no way to manage it.

However, in the past few days, Han Yi heard that more officials and relatives have donated money to fund the mining of Jinshan, and this matter now involves so many officials, Han Yi thought: Could it be that the real purpose of the emperor's formation of the Fujian Navy Division is to dig up Jinshan?

In addition to piracy at sea, there are also sailors from various countries, these Han Yi knows. To dig up gold mountains overseas, it is simply impossible without a strong sailor. Of course, if this matter is true, Han Yi will definitely fully support the formation of the Fujian Water Division, and if such a large mountain of gold can be dug back to the Ming Dynasty, it will basically solve the problem of the empty treasury, and Jianyu is indeed not afraid.

"Nan Yushi, have you heard about the overseas Jinshan?" Thinking of this, Han Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Overseas gold mountain? Xiaguan also heard about the overseas gold mountain for the first time after returning to Beijing, but Xiaguan once heard from the Francois that they had discovered the silver mountain overseas, and it is said that it took almost a hundred years to dig up part of it. General Yu and Wang Shoubei, who came with the lower officials, should know more about this matter, or they should wait for the lower officials to summon the two of them. "Nan Juyi has come into contact with far more Westerners in Fujian than Han Yi and others.

"No need." Han Yi said.

"Ge Lao means that the formation of the Fujian Navy Division may be related to overseas Jinshan." Gao Panlong quickly understood what Han Yi meant.

"I'm not sure, I'll wait until the messenger who has seen the red hair and the Francois tomorrow." Han Yi replied.

Gao Panlong's words made Nan Juyi also realize that Han Yi's idea is indeed reasonable, if the matter of the Fujian Sailor is really related to overseas Jinshan, he Nan Juyi will definitely fully support it. Although he is only half-convinced about the rumors about overseas Jinshan now. He decided to wait until he went back and asked Yu Zhigao and Wang Mengxiong.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao would not have thought that the affairs of overseas Jinshan would develop to the way it is today, and it would become a great help for him to develop the water division.

……

After Nan Juyi left the Han Mansion, he went to ask Yu Zhigao and Wang Mengxiong about the overseas Jinshan. Of course, such a fictitious thing, Yu Zhigao and Wang Mengxiong have never heard of it.

But Wang Mengxiong brought Nan Juyi another piece of news, that is, the news about the existence of El Dorado in this world, and the Spaniards have been looking for decades, but they have never found it. It was this news that made Nan Juyi believe seventy percent of the matter of overseas Jinshan, but it is still uncertain whether the establishment of the Fujian Navy Division is related to overseas Jinshan.

The next day, Zhu Youxiao formally received envoys from the Netherlands and Spain.

The Dutch envoy was the first to be heard. The Dutch envoys were able to accept the ritual of prostration, while the Spaniards were not, so the Dutch were received first.

At this time, the Netherlands was a country composed entirely of merchants, and the principle of the supremacy of interests was the principle pursued by this country, and the Netherlands was also at this time the new world hegemon. They developed a series of modern business systems that have influenced the Netherlands to this day, and even stock exchanges have appeared in the Netherlands. After the Qing people entered the customs, the Dutch envoys were the only Western countries willing to bow down when they met the Qing emperor.

The Dutch attached great importance to this visit to Colonel Zhu You, and the Governor of the East India Company, De Carpenter, personally arrived, accompanied by the commander of the fleet stationed in Penghu, Rejouz. Rayoz originally wanted to prevent De Carbenter from going to Daming in person, because Nanjuyi had imprisoned the Dutch delegation at a banquet when he invited the Dutch to Xiamen for negotiations.
