I'd rather die further than retreat a foot to live. It's not just the thoughts of some people with lofty ideals, it's also about the stability of the people under their rule. Therefore, even if Zhu Yongxing has a plan just in case, he can't announce it, and he must be cautious in his actions.

Zheng Zhaoda knew what Zhu Yongxing meant, although the sycophants did not fit Zhu Yongxing's mind, but it also made Zhu Yongxing appreciate it. Doing a commodity exchange in Haiphong is making more and more money, and building a house is just a small amount of money, as long as Zhu Yongxing is happy, what it looks like and what name it is, he doesn't care.

This time, Zhu Yongxing came to Halong and specially summoned Zheng Zhaoda, originally to develop Saigon, but he didn't expect the Zheng family to build a mansion for him here in order to convince him. Although he is looking forward to the leisurely life of the waves and the beach, Zhu Yongxing knows that it is far from the time to bring beauty and enjoy Qingfu.

The matter of opening an exchange in Saigon was smoothly finalized, and Zhu Yongxing talked about the idea of investing some of King Lu's savings into the merchant group to make some profits. Zheng Zhaoda also agreed, and told Zhu Yongxing that the merchant group also left him a dry share.

For this kind of flattery and closeness, Zhu Yongxing did not refuse. First, it is also an income, and secondly, it can be regarded as calming the hearts of everyone in the merchant group. And King Lu's income can gradually be offset by his income, and there is no need to pay extra for the treasury.

Zhu Yongxing disapproved of the Ming Dynasty's method of "raising pigs" for the clan vassal kings, and was also exploring a way for them to support themselves or be self-sufficient.

After discussing with Zheng Zhaoda, Zhu Yongxing came to the beach with some entourage, strolling and enjoying the scenery, while thinking about many things.

The situation of confrontation with the Qing Dynasty can be regarded as a preliminary opening, but the territory is larger and there are more clues, and Zhu Yongxing must take care of all aspects. Materials, equipment, food, grass, money, and people's hearts. Yunnan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Shuixi, as well as Annam and Mekong provinces. often makes Zhu Yongxing feel powerless.

In addition to dominating the Beibu Gulf and extorting war compensation, the attack on Nam Nguyen also has the purpose of deterring Chenla and Nam Nguyen and winning a relatively relaxed environment for the development and construction of Mekong Province. As long as Mekong Province is truly developed, it will be able to provide sufficient food. Not only can the army be supplied, but it can also support the plan to expand Sichuan's expansion of the cultivation of cash crops in the areas under its control. Earn more business profits.

Zong Shouyi, don't let me down! Zhu Yongxing looked up, the sea was as calm as a mirror, the boats were dotted, and after thinking about it, he still hadn't decided whether to go to Saigon.

"Yi Changshi." Zhu Yongxing turned around slightly and smiled at Yi Cheng: "There is nothing left and right, it is better to sail on the sea." Take a trip to the mountain island. ”

"This-" Yi Cheng hesitated for a moment and persuaded: "Your Highness's golden body." If you want to go out to sea, it is safer to take a sailor's boat. ”

Zhu Yongxing smiled, looked at the sea, and said thoughtfully: "Sailor, it should be almost there." It's just that it wasn't time to play. ”

Yi Cheng ignored Zhu Yongxing's hints, was silent for a while, and diverted the topic, "Your Highness, do you really allow Lu Shizi to serve as an official?" ”

Zhu Yongxing did not look back. Youran said: "It's better than doing nothing and living a mediocre life, right?" As for whether he can be an official and how big an official he is, it depends on his ability. When the state supports the clan, it must always make a charter, and I am afraid that it will not be good as before. ”

Yi Cheng knew that Zhu Yongxing had already stopped treating King Lu as a threat, not to mention the young and knowledgeable Lu Shizi, this was an attempt and a way to reassure King Lu. As for the one in Myanmar, maybe it's not a climate, it's just a secret conspiracy that has been implemented, isn't it time to confess to His Royal Highness Min?

Zhu Yongxing didn't notice the change in Yi Cheng's face, and still walked slowly, leaving a series of footprints on the beach.

Tiger Father and Dog Son. For King Lu and Lu Shizi, Zhu Yongxing's evaluation is not appropriate, but King Lu is indeed stronger than his son, this is the conclusion of Zhu Yongxing after meeting with King Lu. Well, Zheng Chenggong's father and son seem to be even more so.

Zheng Chenggong is eloquent, but Zheng Jing is far inferior to his father, and even the division and decline of the Zheng family are caused by him. Zhu Yongxing remembered that Zheng Chenggong would choke to death because of this rebel in the year after tomorrow, and he couldn't help but think about it again and again, and hesitated.

At this time, the reminder is obviously inappropriate, and even suspected of provocative. In the future, Zheng Jing is obviously much easier to deal with than Zheng Chenggong, and when the Zheng family is divided, if his power is stronger, it may also be an opportunity to win over his people and strengthen himself.

Zhu Yongxing smiled bitterly, stopped, and sighed, feeling that his psychology was even darker. In fact, Yi Cheng, who is psychologically dark, is next to him, and the murder of the prince has been planned for a long time. It took a long time to arrange manpower, buy Burmese, etc., and it was only recently that the operation was officially launched, but Yi Cheng still didn't know what the result was.

Wait until you have the result and then explain it to His Royal Highness Min, Yi Cheng hesitated for a long time, and finally swallowed the words in his stomach. After getting along with Zhu Yongxing for so long, Yi Cheng already knows Zhu Yongxing's temperament very well, it seems to be decisive to kill, but it is not indiscriminate and ruthless, even if it is for the ignorant grass people, he does not show contempt and contempt, and even shows even more affection.

In fact, this is the common disease of traversers, who take the upper and lower levels very lightly, and do not belittle others with their industry and identity, let alone kill people if they are not satisfied.

This kind of character is the result of long-term education and nurturing, and it will not change easily, which makes others naturally have a benevolent impression of Zhu Yongxing, but Zhu Yongxing is not deliberately pretentious.

Although Yi Cheng didn't want to tell Zhu Yongxing the truth now, it didn't prevent him from knocking on the side, after all, the superior would not like his subordinates to do their own thing. After the matter is completed, whether to continue to conceal it, or to risk being wiped out and tell the truth, Yi Cheng did not have the most difficult decision.

"Your Highness." Yi Cheng took a step forward and said as if it were very usual: "You have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and you are the hope of China and foreign countries, and the period of all peoples." If someone gets in the way, don't hesitate to retreat and trap our faithful followers in danger! ”

Zhu Yongxing was slightly stunned, not knowing what Yi Cheng meant by saying this suddenly, and looked at him with some doubts.

Yi Cheng's face remained unchanged, and he continued: "Your Highness, the struggle for power has been a river of blood since ancient times, and now those who follow you have been tabooed, if you are soft-hearted and retreat at that time, how can we have a good end?" We still have parents to support, wives and children to raise. ”

Is this a sign of loyalty, or is it a reminder of yourself? Although Zhu Yongxing has not yet figured it out, he also knows that he must have an answer in order to stabilize people's hearts.

Zhu Yongxing took a long breath, slowly exhaled it, and said firmly: "After I left Burma and entered Yunnan, I didn't know what it was to retreat? You have followed me faithfully today, and I will never fail you in the future. ”
