In addition to their wild personalities, most of the people who catch the sea also believe in Buddhism and pay attention to accumulating virtue and doing good. This thing sounds a bit contradictory, but it actually illustrates the situation of these maritime merchants. It is not contradictory that they are willing to do more good deeds for the sake of their own lives, and also for the sake of having more good luck when they are isolated and helpless on the sea, and also to be able to live. Sending these poor people home, everyone would rather decorate less goods than be happy, this is a great good deed, and it has helped dozens of people at once.

"The boycott cannot be stopped, no matter whether the caravan of the imperial court is still or not, the imperial court must give a clear explanation. It's just two years before they come up with another fleet, and we can't play this game with the court at any time, and they don't bother me. You better go back to the port of Malacca immediately, and tell the maritime merchants what happened to the imperial merchant fleet first, so that they can put their hearts in their stomachs, and we will win this time! In addition, take the people on this list to Ma Yi Hong Kong, and investigate their backgrounds by the way. These sailors were also sent back to Ma Yi Port first, and let them help build the city on the construction site first, and find someone to keep an eye on the point. ”

"By the way, He Jinrong's family sent it to Jinhe City, right? Although this old man's approach was a bit reckless, he did the empire and the maritime merchants a great favor. Explain this matter clearly to the maritime merchants, give the He family the corresponding treatment, and let his family be an example, which can just cooperate with the empire's immigration policy. But neither the Straits Daily nor the Bosom Friend Daily are allowed to report on this matter for half a word, and whoever dares to talk casually will not be softer than others, and I authorize you the right to use all means. The problem of the imperial court's merchant fleet is also said as little as possible, if it has to be said, it is said that it was destroyed by a strong wind and waves, and then it is highlighted that the Royal Navy desperately rescued it out of humanitarianism, and the emperor has ventured into the windless zone, understand? ”

With He Jinrong, such a toss. In addition, a few ships were rescued in the end, and the Jinhe Empire suddenly became the biggest beneficiary, and Hong Tao could continue to dig the big pit dug for the Southern Song Dynasty. And there are still a lot of things to do in the affairs of the He family, and the better the empire is to the He family, the more it has the effect of buying people's hearts. Although Hong Tao is not in favor of using other people's tragedies to make profits for the empire, he has to do a little bit. Otherwise, He Jinrong's sacrifice would be worthless.

"I'm afraid Your Majesty won't be able to take the fleet to the Great Food Country this time...... Hey, hey, hey, this is a clipper sent by the Ministry of Supervision this morning, you can take a look. Cixi wrote down Hong Tao's instructions word for word in his small notebook, and then took out a piece of paper from the notebook with a wicked smile and handed it to Hong Tao.

"Didn't I say that you have to deal with the group of people in the Imperial Council, just say that I have already left with the fleet and can't catch up!" Hong Tao instinctively thought that it was the Imperial Parliament that disagreed with his decision to take the fleet to the Great Food Country, and a pair of small eyes widened again.

"It's good news, see for yourself...... "Cixi doesn't look like a dog-legged character. But when he and Hong Tao were alone, they were the most open.

“…… Ogedai Khan is dead! When did this happen? The paper handed over by Cixi was written in secret words, Hong Tao looked very difficult, and he was impatient after only reading a beginning, but the content was very important, and he couldn't help but read it, and the best way was to let Cixi help him read it.

"The exact time is not clear, this information is two months ago. The Mongols were kept secret at first until the battle for the throne of the Khan became fierce. I just got the news. According to intelligence, there are currently two main people vying for the Khan throne, one is Meng Ge, the eldest son of Tuolei. On the other side was the eldest son of Ögedai Khan, Guiyu, whose main supporters were Chagatai and Yelu Chucai. Meng Ke said that in the eldest son's expedition to the west, Guiyou did not show the qualities of the Great Khan, and insulted Batu and was not worthy of being the Great Khan of the entire Mongol Empire. This statement was shared by many Mongol nobles, who were also angry about the defeat of Ögedei Khan's southern expedition. He was reluctant to give the throne to the son of Ogedei. According to the will of Ögedei Khan, his eldest son Guiyou was the legal heir of the Mongol Hehan, and some Mongol nobles were willing to abide by this rule. It's hard to say who will win, but I've sent extra men to the north to send the relevant information back at any time. It's just that in this way, Your Majesty, I'm afraid you won't be able to spare the effort to go to the Great Food Country, right? Cixi translated the secret words on the information. Then he used his understanding to tell Hong Tao, and finally laughed evilly, as if he was very happy to see Hong Tao eat deflated.

"Alas...... Are you wearing a fucking crotch pair with the council? I'm glad you can't get out, aren't you! Hong Tao sighed, Cixi was right, no matter how urgent the matter was, he couldn't leave. The Mongol Empire has always been the biggest enemy of the Golden River Empire, and its great changes must be known in detail at the first time, and the next step of the empire's response must be arranged, which is related to the future development plan of the Golden River Empire, which is the first priority.

"Hey, hey, hey...... I don't want to make do with those people, and they won't want me if I want to surrender, for fear that I am a spy sent by His Majesty...... If His Majesty can't go, won't Mercy have the opportunity to command a large fleet once, and I'm happy for him. Bo Jiao will definitely not be able to leave, Bo Yu and Po Shrimp are still too young, Kong Pei has to keep an eye on the Great Song Dynasty and Mongolia. I've done the math, and it's the best thing left for our family's mercy, right? Cixi was really sincere, and told Hong Tao directly the reason why he was happy.

"Do you still want to make a face? The virtuous are here! Let compassion go is better than let Weng Ya go, do you think the big food country is a soft persimmon? Going to a casual individual with a few boats is the same as bullying Java Island? I'll teach you a good job, listen up! The sailors of the Great Food Kingdom are stronger than the sailors of the Southern Song Dynasty, and their combat effectiveness is about the same as that of the Mongol army, and they have to be added to the battle on their own soil. If it weren't for the infighting on their side all day long, do you think we would be able to occupy Port Karamba so steadily? Your family is merciful, and you can't even come back with people on the boat, do you still want him to go? ”

Hong Tao listened to Cixi's reason, and almost didn't throw the cigarette butt in his face. This guy actually remembered what he said about the promise that whoever was promoted to the rank of general first would be the commander of the navy, and openly wanted to help Mercy ascend to the throne, and wanted to take the credit for attacking the Great Food Country. It's a pity that he thinks well, but he doesn't know much about the situation on the side of the Great Food Country. Like many Jinhe people, he believed that the whole world was similar to Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty, and as long as the Royal Navy came forward, everything would be closed, and the credit would be at his fingertips.

"That'...... You have to go! It's better to wait until you're done with Mongolia, and then take him with you, it's much safer. Cixi is really easy to persuade, Hong Tao said that he immediately raised a red light when it was dangerous, Hong Tao said it was safe, he immediately changed the green light, both utilitarian and shameless, without any face.

"Hmph, if you're smart, go back and tell mercy, let him be okay, don't think about it all the time, and go to the library to read more books. There is no inventory in his head, even if he is now made the commander of the navy, will he be able to do it? But Hong Tao likes this kind of real villain who uses all his bad thoughts in the light, because he is relieved to get along with such a person! You don't have to guess, you don't have to test what others are thinking, you're lazy.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's definitely not a loss to read more books! When I saw him, I told him that this was His Majesty's order, and that he must read one every day, or I would break his legs! "Cixi has always obeyed Hong Tao's advice 100%, and immediately became a holy decree!

"Hey, the compassionate leg doesn't know if it's enough for you to fight, one a day? Do you think it's reading the newspaper? Gotta get it, don't mess with me, hurry up and pack up, and let's go together tomorrow morning...... Let's put the big cannibal first. By the way, you can put the matter of opening up new routes on hold, but you can't be idle, we won't fight unprepared battles. Now that you have time, you can also get the intelligence work on the big food side, you don't have to rush to get results, you can find the right person to lurk in first. "Hong Tao is annoyed, annoyed by everything that ruins his plans. The civil strife in the Mongol Empire was a great thing for the Empire, but he was not happy to destroy his plan to go to the Great Eat.

Cixi's intelligence work has done a very good job, thanks to the fact that no one has paid attention to this aspect in this era, and even if it does, it is still in a very primitive state, compared with the Ministry of Supervision established by Hong Tao according to the model of intelligence units in various countries in later generations, it is the difference between a primary school table tennis champion and a world table tennis champion, and it is not a grade at all.
