To build a nation, to build a state that belongs to the Jews, is something they have never thought of or dared not think of.

It wasn't until three or four hundred years later, when the Jews were oppressed that they erupted. Of course, then Zionism became somewhat distorted, for example, that they did not pay any attention to the feelings of the Palestinians and so on. However, as soon as Ding comes, this qiē will be changed.

It should be said that no matter how much self-control Ding Yi has, he is not an internationalist in his bones.

Therefore, when he mentioned to the Jews that they should establish a state, he not only discussed this matter with Wan An and Liu Ji, but also communicated with Li Bing, Xu Bin, and Yang Shan through guò letters, and Yingzong and Yu Qian also expressed their approval of this proposal in their reply letters, and even Ma Ang, who was in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of War, and Li Xian, who had become the first assistant, also eagerly said that this was absolutely correct.

Ding Yi was very suspicious, was it the credit of the dozen or so ships of war dividends?

However, no matter what, many parties supported this plan, and the imperial court even approved it with a formal official document, expressing its agreement and authorizing the Metropolitan Government of the Four Seas to carry out this matter, so Ding Yi also put this matter on the agenda.

"I'm not a saint to let you build a country, of course I sympathize with your plight, but it's not enough for me to do you so much and give you such a big reward." Ding Yi did not use any diplomatic rhetoric, because he was going to North America soon, and the recruitment of the black foreign legion was progressing very well, and now in Suez and Cairo, there are several new trainers carrying out new training work.

"If you get this reward, then it is because it is beneficial to the Ming Dynasty. It is because it is in the interests of the Ming Dynasty to give you this land. Ding Yi didn't use any negotiation skills. To coerce or brainwash these stunned Jewish representatives. He paused, smiled and picked up his teacup, giving them a little time to breathe and digest.

The Jews may not all be shrewd businessmen, but at least they can come to Cairo to meet Ding Yi, and they are definitely the best of the merchants.

They are very intelligent, or rather, they are very good at understanding what they want, under the long-term oppression of Western European countries.

So after taking a sip of tea and calming down. They began to exchange opinions with each other, and it was clear that they felt it was rude to exchange heads and ears in front of Ding Yi.

As soon as Ding looked at this qiē, he instructed Cao Jixiang: "Old Cao take them down to rest, give them a large enough conference hall, and don't disturb them until they have a good discussion." He didn't need to rush to force the Jews to make a decision, but he would give them enough time to figure it out.

In fact, when the representatives of the Jews were brought to the chamber. They began to discuss eagerly: "What can we provide for Daming?" "No, Daming is too far away, what can we offer His Highness? Money? I don't think so, Your Highness is not the King of France! ”

Jews though have money. But compared to Ding Yi, who plundered the dividends of the war, at least the wealth they could and were willing to provide was not enough to attract Ding Yi. They are all well aware. If Ding Yi wanted to, he didn't need to use Huaxia's army. As long as those Ming foreign legions are dispatched, it is enough to plunder them completely.

"Could this be a trap?" Someone suddenly asked such a question.

And there are those who agree: "Concentrate the Jews in one area." Then use that cannon and kill us all!" ”

"Your Highness is not such a person, Your Highness is so merciful, you can't slander a righteous person like this!" The Jewish representative, who was young and strong in the family and had obtained the household registration of the Ming Dynasty, immediately took the case.

"I think Your Highness has given us such a reward so that we can look favorably on the Pharaoh." Such a claim has been made.

No one would say, "The female pharaoh is the woman of His Highness, why would he do this?" "They are not low-level people, they are all shrewd big businessmen, they can't figure out this joint, where are the many means to earn wealth? Checks and balances are not too complicated for them, even if they do business, it is impossible to hand over all the power of a certain region to a certain manager.

So they fell silent, because everyone felt that it was probably the true meaning of Ding Yi's reward for giving them a piece of land.

"How can we help His Highness keep an eye on the female pharaoh? She has a lot of Mamluk! After the silence, some people put forward their own opinions, thinking that it was dangerous, "When the time comes, will we not become a thorn in the side of the female pharaoh?" Isn't that more dangerous? ”

The representatives of the young and strong family who got the household registration of the Ming Dynasty said very firmly: "Your Highness will not put his servants to death!" ”

"Those who have never been loyal to His Highness will be given up lightly."

"In Suez, His Highness used medicine worth dozens of good horses to cure one of the most lowly black slaves."

"Every black slave who is loyal to His Highness is saved, tens of thousands of black slaves, they are saved only because of their loyalty."

"Because more than two dozen soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were killed, and thousands of elite Mamluks were killed, His Highness never gave up every loyal servant! It is impossible for us to die in vain, and if His Highness gives us a piece of land, it will certainly let us live. ”

As a result, they have basically deduced the general framework.

Ding Yi's case can be supported by the Ming Dynasty because the minerals and products here are not particularly rich.

It is not cost-effective for the Ming Dynasty to send troops to garrison and occupy this place.

But for Ding Yi, the oil in Saudi Arabia really makes him salivate!

But now we don't have the ability to mine, and we don't have the ability to use it, what should we do?

Pai Ming army has been guarding Saudi Arabia for hundreds of years? Who will bear the cost?

You must know that a bullet, in Liangguang, the price is not mentioned, the cost alone, it is almost the cost of one or two shelled brown rice, but when it comes to Xuanda, a bullet will cost three or four taels of brown rice, because there is no railway, no road, this is still transported to Tianjin by sea, and then transported by land, if it is transported to Shudi, it is even higher.

That's why it is said that in Egypt, a bullet is really worth about the same weight of silver.

In the past ten years, there have been no battleships sunk by storms, and there are quite a few supply ships every year.

The crew has to eat and drink, salaries, ships to repair, escort, artillery has been used for a long time, it will also blow up, before the barrel steel and gun barrel steel have not been developed, Ding Yi made the rifled artillery is less than a thousand rounds of life, in fact, Du Mu, the director of the industrial department, put forward the concept of 400 rounds to be reheated, behind the ship's strong guns, the war dividends are gratifying, the cost is also very terrifying. However, thanks to Ding Yi's unrestricted investment in industry, the naval guns of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in the Four Seas have not yet exploded.

Sending troops to occupy the Saudi area, Ding Yi is not difficult to do now, but there must be no less people, and it can't be just a few bandits; And there must be supporting facilities, otherwise the wind and sand will be buried. The military expenditure for hundreds of years is an astronomical amount, and with such a sum of money, it is better for Ding Yi to go to North America or China to build tens of thousands of kilometers of railways.

So there's such a proposal.

When reconvening the Jewish representatives, Ding Yi did not hide his true intentions: "The significance of Israel's existence is that the Ming Dynasty needs Israel to save its territory, so that for the Ming Dynasty, the cost of controlling this area is much lower." ”

"With Jerusalem as the center, you can call on the Jews of the Western countries to focus on Israel."

"The Ming Dynasty will promote military training for your youth, and will provide you with some weapons, of course, this qiē is paid, you can also refuse, and use your fists and swords to defend your territory. However, if you can't reflect the needs of the Ming Dynasty, then you should also know what will happen. ”

In fact, when proposing the establishment of Israel, Ding Yi had selfish motives.

Ding Yi was very worried about Morena, not because of her own problems, but because of the group of people who had followed her for generations.

After Morena ascended to the throne, they began to occupy important positions in various institutions in Egypt, and they were extremely greedy, and they did not know what they were capable of, but they thought that if the restoration was successful, it was time to share the sweetness. They would even constantly declare their exploits to Morena, raise her, evade Mamluk's pursuit, and so on.

Now that Ding Yi is still in Cairo, these people are still quite restrained, once Ding Yi leaves, he doesn't know what demon moths will be tossed.

Suddenly, a representative of the Jews said in such a loud voice: "The Messiah of the restored Savior will come, and he should hope every day and never slacken!" This is the leader of the Jews who served as a doctor in Saladin, Moses. Maimonides, the twelfth of the thirteen cardinal doctrines.

"Messiah!" The representatives of the Jews stood up one after another and said this to Ding Yi.

It's a simple three syllables, but it has a meaning that is definitely not simple.

Ding Yi immediately shook his head and rejected the title, saying to the representatives of the Jews: "I remember that according to the doctrine of your observance, 'the Lord of Creation is the only one to be worshipped, and there is nothing else to worship,' so you should not worship me, and do the things of the world according to the rules of the world." ”

"It takes a lot of things to build a country, and my disciple Wan Xunji will discuss the details with you on this issue."

Money, although the establishment of Israel, Ding Yi is not for money, but he also does not refuse to make a lot of money in this matter.

Just as accepting the submission of the Mamluk chiefs and accepting their surrender, Ding Yi never considered the nominal issues but the substantive interests.

"Abu who summoned Mamluk has come where he comes in handy." Ding Yi smiled at Cao Jixiang and ordered. (To be continued......)
