From the very beginning, Tang Ming asked the empress and Zhu Di to open some trade ports for foreign trade. On the surface www.biquge.info, this is a sacrifice of the interests of the government and decentralization to the people, but Tang Ming didn't think so.

Just like what Zhu Di said just now, why can't the government compare with the civilians who risk death to smuggle under the forbidden sea when it has sovereignty. There may be many reasons, but Tang Ming is sure that the main reason is that the government cannot cover everything.

"Your Majesty, in fact, Weichen has already given you the answer to this question a long time ago, that is, to fully relax the sea ban and delegate the formalization of management rights to civilians or businessmen. In this way, on the surface, the government will suffer a great loss, but in fact, it is not. It's like two treaty seaports that have just been tried to open. The government does not have to do anything about maritime trade, but only collects taxes and manages the order. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di seems to have some enlightenment, and according to Tang Ming's statement, the two seaports that have been opened to Qilai have also been confirmed. The Ming Dynasty no longer needs to invest a lot of money in trade, but invests some manpower to manage and collect taxes.

At present, 30 percent of the tax revenue is far more than the government's own trade, because the government's interests have always been under the impact of non-governmental smuggling, and its interests cannot be guaranteed. No matter how strict the policy of the imperial court is, smuggling is always something that cannot be stopped, and it is better to simply withdraw and reap the benefits of the fisherman than to spend money and effort to prohibit it.

Zhu Di is a smart person, Tang Ming only needs a little bit of him to figure out the key, the communication between smart people and smart people is sometimes so simple. It's a pity that Zhu Gaochi, who stayed on the side, seems to need some training, and now he can't reach such a height at all, so he still can't figure it out.

Zhu Di chuckled and nodded to Tang Ming, turned around and left, as for the garbage left by those pirates at sea, let Tang Ming pick it up. He has to take advantage of the current flow of ideas in his head to plan how to implement his ambitions after returning to Daming.

As soon as Zhu Di left, the happiest person was Tang Ming, this guy was picking up some broken boat. This is just his cover-up, most of these broken ships are unrepairable, and his real purpose is to destroy the remaining artillery on the ship.

These cannons are obviously more advanced than those used by the Ming Dynasty today, and it should perhaps be said that they were specially built for use on ships, and for naval warfare, these cannons are more suitable.

If the current treasure ships and warships were equipped with such cannons, wouldn't it be like a tiger with wings. Seeing Zhu Di suddenly come out just now, I thought that my careful thoughts were going to be in the soup again, but I didn't expect Zhu Di's thoughts to be here, but now he is cheaper.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the fleet did not continue to set off, but stayed where it was, waiting for Fei Xin, who had gone to the pirate's den, to return.

Zhu Gaochi didn't know if it was his father who was ordered by the emperor or out of his own will, so he carried a pot of good wine and dragged Tang Ming to the outside deck to bask in the sun.

This guy seemed to be in a very good mood with a smile, and after persuading Tang Ming to drink a few glasses of wine, he came to his eyes and licked his face and smiled: "How much pirate wealth do you say Fei Xin can bring back this time?" ”

Tang Ming felt very bored talking to such a person who got into the eyes of money, but seeing this guy's posture of not asking a result and vowing not to give up, Tang Ming could only say perfunctorily: "If I guess correctly, the two treasure ships should be able to be filled." ”

Zhu Gaochi's two eyes instantly shot out an eager light, and his whole head was already full of the wealth of the two treasure ships. At this moment, Tang Ming was put aside, Tang Ming wished that Zhu Gaochi would not bother himself, he had already begun to think about how to develop Ryukyu Island.

The development of Ryukyu Island is not as easy as Jeju Island, which is closer to the Ming Dynasty, and there is no foundation, from the military power at sea to the people who open up the wasteland, all of which require him to have a headache.

In addition, it is difficult to hold the Ryukyu and Jeju islands in their hands when communications are so underdeveloped. Jeju Island is separated from Ryukyu Island by an island nation, and if he cannot secure a shipping route to the island country, he will have to make a detour through the waters of Daming to travel between Ryukyu Island and Jeju Island.

If he wants to solve this dilemma, he may have to go to the island country in person, but these are all problems that will be faced later, and the most important thing now is how much wealth Li Dazhui can hide for him in this harvest.

These were important sources of funds for the development of the Ryukyu Island, and if something unexpected happened, it would be a pipe dream.

Waiting for someone is always the most tormenting, two days have passed, and there is still no news of Fei Xin. After a long time, everyone will inevitably start to worry, and Zhu Di is also very concerned about the wealth of the pirates this time, so when he was worried, he called Tang Ming to the front and asked him.

"It's been two days, why doesn't Fei Xin even have any news, you are more familiar with things at sea, come and analyze with me."

Tang Ming's eyes were clear, isn't Zhu Di embarrassed? He had been here since the beginning, and when Fei Xin set off, everyone did not agree on when he would come back, and his eyes were also blackened, telling him how to analyze it.

But in order for Zhu Di not to worry, Tang Ming still tried to analyze in a good direction: "This sea voyage is no better than walking on land, the ship mainly relies on the wind, if the direction is not right, it is inevitable to delay a little time." And I don't know where this pirate's nest is, if the voyage is long, only two days is not enough, so the emperor can rest assured, Weichen estimates that there should be news within ten days. ”

Listening to Tang Ming's explanation, Zhu Di also suddenly felt that he was too anxious, although ten days was a bit long, it was very boring in the vast sea where there was no village and no store, but for the unknown wealth Zhu Di secretly planned in his heart and felt that it was worth it.

But in these ten days, you have to find something to pass the time, Zhu Di stayed on Tang Ming's body, the whole person relaxed and leaned back in the chair, and asked a little boringly: "There are still ten days to go, then what is interesting for you kid, otherwise wouldn't you be bored to death if you stay like this for ten days." ”

Therefore, it is difficult for the emperors in the world to serve, especially Tang Ming, who is considered a cronie, who has to work hard, not only to share the emperor's worries, but also to have fun for him. I didn't prepare for this trip, and I really couldn't think of anything interesting for a while.

Fortunately, Tang Ming's mind has always been flexible, and fishing in this deep sea is also a good pastime. (To be continued.) )
