Yang Yibai sent 60,000 grenades to the enemy Gu Lie, this hospitality really moved Chi Tie'er, Chi Tie'er offered to buy it with money, they went all the way to the west, won every success, and there was no shortage of money.

Yang Yi refuted sternly: "Enemy Gulie doesn't want to recognize me as an answer?" Since they are brothers, they can entrust their lives, let alone others? Now you want to develop people's livelihood and stabilize the place, it is the time to use money everywhere, I can help An Answer, how can I talk about money? If I am for money, and the countries of such sharp weapons as grenades are eager to buy them, why bother to go to Persia to sell them? ”

In fact, the cost of the grenade is not high, Yang Yi came out this time, and emptied the three national capitals of Bolinbang, Gaolangbu, and Tanjavur, and obtained countless gold and silver treasures, and these gold and silver treasures did not belong to the West Indian Ocean Trading Company, but as the Yang family's military income.

Sending tens of thousands of grenades to the enemy Gu Lie is just a drop in the bucket compared to the income this time. Since he has the intention to win over the enemy Gu Lie, then he will be single, and he will have nothing to say in terms of affection.

Chi Tie'er really had nothing else to say, bowed down and saluted, and said angrily: "Don't hide it from Scholar Yang, when my king wanted to marry Scholar Yang, I was against it, I was only afraid that my king would suffer a loss, and now I know that I am a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, I am really ashamed, Scholar Yang is high-minded, and we will keep it in mind." ”

"Uncle Chi Tieer don't mind, the situation at that time, it is normal for you to be worried, I came out this time, under the pretense of other names, it is really inconvenient to stay too long, and now I stay in East German Port, just to wait for Uncle Chi Tieer to come. I also miss my Ana very much, but this time I really didn't have time to go to Persia. I will send ships to Persia with these weapons that I have given to Amta. At that time, Uncle Chi Tieer can go back by boat together. ”

"Since Scholar Yang said so, it is inconvenient for me to force it, but I'm afraid that I will regret that I can't meet Scholar Yang."

"Yes, there will be a chance, from my Great Song Dynasty to Persia, you can actually go back and forth once in half a year by boat, and I will go to Persia sooner or later in the future to visit my Anda."

The two chatted for a while, and Yang Yi quickly turned the topic to governing the country: "When I first came to Persia, I didn't have a long foothold. There are a lot of things, I am really a little worried about him, the local rebellion, must be vigorously suppressed, now they are still in their hearts towards the Seljuks, if you can't convert them to Buddhism, you will never be able to convert them, so this matter must not be soft, if it is a temporary compromise. There will be endless troubles in the future. I, the Great Song Dynasty, am now in the Western Regions, and I am also doing this, also for the sake of long-term peace and stability in the future. ”

Chi Tie'er thought for a while and said, "Scholar Yang is reasonable. ”

"If you want to quell the rebellion of the locals, you can only suppress it ruthlessly. The development of production is the most important thing, and only when the people live a prosperous life will they not be willing to take risks and gather people to resist. Saying goes. No farming, no stability, no business, no wealth. For a country. Abundant grain is a prerequisite for the country's stability, and the development of industry and commerce is a necessary means to ensure the country's prosperity and strength. I will do my best to influence the merchants of my country. Let them transport as many goods as you need to solve your post-war shortage of supplies. All you have to do is keep them safe and give them some ease of trade. Well, if I have anything to say, you can also send me letters through these merchants, and I will definitely try my best to support them. ”

Yang Yi thinks about the enemy Gulie everywhere in his words and deeds, and he is extremely generous, first of all, he really wants to support the enemy Gulie to gain a firm foothold in Persia and promote sinicization. On the other hand, it is also to find a broader market for the goods of the Great Song Dynasty, and of course, the development of commerce and trade between the two sides is also beneficial to the enemy Gulie, there is no doubt about it.

Chi Tie'er didn't expect that this time, Yang Yi would be so generous, the harvest was so rich, he was really overjoyed, with his wisdom, he couldn't see Yang Yi's selfishness at all, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that Yang Yi was indeed sincerely helping the enemy Gu Lie's answer, and what Yang Yi said, he was full of promises.

Finally, it was time to go home, and although Le Tao and the others stayed, the fleet on the return trip did not shrink at all, but became even larger, because eight more merchant ships of 2,000 materials and 6 thousand materials joined in, and returned with goods and gold and silver.

It is inevitable that the Great Song Dynasty will maintain a surplus in trade with various countries, as long as the maritime trade will continue to flourish, gold and silver will continue to flow to the Great Song Dynasty, in this case, Yang Yi feels that there is no need to occupy these small countries by force, at least now there is no need for this, the current territory of the Great Song Dynasty is large enough, and it will cause indigestion if it is greedy and chewy.

After more than 20 days, the fleet returned safely to Singapore, which is the key place for Yang Yi to operate, and the warships of the expedition will also use this as their home port to deter the countries of the South Seas.

At present, Yang Yi has already controlled Kagoshima, Japan, and has also built a simple supply port in southern Taiwan, plus the port of Mayi, the port of Singapore, and the port of East Germany in the southern corner of India, it can be said that the route from Japan to India is basically under his control, of course, this control is still relatively weak, and needs to be strengthened, and warships and artillery also need to be increased and improved.

This time, Yang Yi scraped the capitals of three countries, and it is not a problem for him to build more warships, but the technical improvement of artillery must be paid attention to.

At the same time that Yang Taifu had been found in the area of Zhancheng, Yang Yi turned to Zhancheng and returned to Hangzhou by sea by merchant ship.

In fact, the round-trip voyage from the Great Song Dynasty to India was only three and a half months enough, but Yang Yi took nearly half a year to go out this time, and it was already a snowy midwinter when he returned to the capital, and it was only a few days before Chinese New Year's Eve.

When they saw the majestic Tokyo City from afar, Qing Niang and Adele couldn't help but shed tears of excitement, the sound of the waves of the Indian Ocean seemed to be still echoing in their ears, but it seemed to be half a life away, this journey to the west was like a dream for them, Yang Yi hugged the two of them left and right, and was quite emotional, and was silent for a long time.

Liu Qingjing specially sent a lieutenant official to greet him, and there were many words of comfort in the will, Yang Yi patrolled the hunt on behalf of the sky, and there were always many suggestions from the middle of the court to report to the imperial court, which provided a basis for the imperial court to rectify local problems, and the contribution was indispensable, and he almost died in the process of patrolling, and it was natural for the court to make some comfort.

Because the imperial court is now on annual leave, many officials have also spontaneously come out to greet them, such as Ma Hanqing, Wan Shifang, Bao Yan, Li Yizhong, etc., and the scene is very lively.

Yang Yi's return, for those Yang officials who don't know, is happier than the New Year, their hearts have been entangled for half a year, if it weren't for some vague news from the staff hall from time to time, I'm afraid some people have changed their courts.

Yang Yi and a group of officials got together, so they let them go back to the city first, and followed the Zhongguan into the palace to pay the decree, when Yang Yi left Beijing, the outer city was still under construction, and the commercial inns of the houses in each square were still stepping up construction.

In just one year, the outer city has been a flying pavilion, with many shops, and the shops are full of rare treasures from all over the world, and the smooth and spacious streets are full of traffic and hustle and bustle, and the gates and shops are all completely renewed, and the lights are ready to welcome the New Year.

Especially in the park at the four corners of the Second Ring Road, the green pines and cypresses cover the pavilions and ponds, and the park is full of joy, men, women and children are wearing brand new clothes, full of energy, and the warm blowing sound can dispel the cold air of winter.

Seeing this thriving scene, Yang Yi really wanted to join in and enjoy the carnival. The eunuch who greeted him did not urge him, a line walked slowly, it was easy to come to Xuande Gate, the Ming Hall on the left side has been built a city, up to thirty or forty meters, the scale is grand, the look is majestic, it shows the magnificent and majestic atmosphere of the Heavenly Empire.

"Come back to see the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven will sit in the Ming Hall." This is a sentence from "Mulan". Yang Yi was the same at this moment, the Son of Heaven received him in the Ming Hall. Half of the senior officials of the six ministries of the three provinces, including Zhang Dan, Li Qingchen, and Fan Chunren, were also present.

As soon as Yang Yi entered the hall, his eyes were first handed over to Zhang Dan, Zhang Duan looked a little older, Yang Yi disappeared for half a year, although Zhang Yi was suspicious and felt that things were not so simple, but when Yang Yi inspected the place, he did not deliberately dismantle the stage when he reported various problems and rectification plans, and after carefully referring to Yang Yi's suggestions, they were implemented one by one, and the Great Song Dynasty was thriving under his rule.

Such an upright prime minister, who has a clear distinction between public and private, is the luck of the Great Song Dynasty, although he was wary of himself, and during Yang Yi's departure from Beijing, he transferred several Yang officials from important positions, but only transferred from key positions, and did not wantonly attack.

Yang Yi's good impression of Zhang Dian has not weakened because of this, and he has no intention of getting into trouble with him. The few officials who have been transferred out can slowly figure out a way, so there is no need to make a mess and lose both, which is not beneficial to the country or the people.

Zhao Jie stood up at the first glance when he saw Yang Yi, if it wasn't for the timely reminder of the eunuch in the palace, he was afraid that he would have run down the palace. He stood in front of the throne and looked at Yang Yi earnestly, and spoke first: "Teacher, I heard that you ran into a reef and sunk at sea, I am so worried, is my teacher okay?" ”

The eldest son's feelings were sincere, Yang Yi was very pleased, and after giving the salute, he took out the set of statements that had already been made, saying that his boat was in the waves at sea and fell into the hands of a group of pirates, but fortunately, these pirates still had some benevolence and righteousness, and they did not kill anyone after robbing their property. A few months later, he took advantage of the pirates' nest to find an opportunity to escape the island on a raft and was rescued by the ships of the occupation city.

Zhao Jie had no doubt about Yang Yi's statement, and even if Zhang Dian and others doubted it, they had no way to verify it, and it seemed that there was no need to make great efforts to verify it.

After Mingtang paid the decree, everyone dispersed, Yang Yi went to the academy to pack some things, and just about to go home, there was an inner servant who came to pass the decree that the emperor would give a banquet.

The waiter took Yang Yi around the inside of the imperial flower for half a circle, but he went towards Yanchun Pavilion, Yang Yi realized that the banquet was just a superficial statement, and Liu Qingjing wanted to see himself to be true.
