"The method is very simple, that is, to find a few people with no background, as businessmen, engaged in the business of selling grain from the south to the north!"

As soon as Zhu Youzhen spoke, Zhu Youxiao felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, and immediately asked:

"What does my brother mean is that he doesn't go to the court, but takes out a sum of silver and asks someone to buy grain and sell it in the north?"

"Exactly!" Zhu Youzhen explained:

"If you follow the path of the imperial court, both the cabinet and the six branches can reject the holy decree, and it will be unfavorable to fight head-on."

"It's better to directly support some people who have no foundation, buy enough grain from Sichuan, Huguang and other places, and then go down the river, take the sea route north, and arrive in Liaodong."

"This ......" After Zhu Youxiao heard this, he frowned and said:

"But the sea is turbulent, if something happens to the ship......"

"Brother, don't be afraid." Zhu Youzhen comforted:

"It's impossible not to make a penny in this matter, otherwise my brother's internal income is six million, and he can't support the three million people in Liaodong."

"The simplest thing is that my brother took out the silver, and then bought enough grain in Sichuan and Huguang for 300 wen and 400 wen."

"Grain can be sold in the Jiangnan area now, and when you gain the trust of the gentry and officials in Jiangnan, you can join the way of selling grain in the north."

"Three hundred wen of grain, transported to Jiangnan is five hundred wen, transported to Liaodong is one or two."

"A few times like this, a million silver will soon be multiplied several times in a row."

"......" Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao frowned slightly.

He was not a fool and knew that it was feasible to do so, because Jiangnan officials were the ones who benefited.

If the grain of 300 wen and one stone is transported from Sichuan to Jiangnan and sold for 500 wen, then 300,000 taels can be harvested 500,000 taels.

Excluding ships and wages, I'm afraid I can earn tens of thousands of taels on the first trip.

And as two brothers, he could get hundreds of boats by asking some sailors to sell their boats.

Most of the merchants in Jiangnan were maritime merchants and could not afford this profit.

The cost of hundreds of ships is hundreds of thousands of taels, and if you buy enough grain to load the ship, then the cost is hundreds of thousands of taels.

Take out a million taels at one time, there are too few such businessmen, and they have long monopolized various industries.

Salt Wine Mine Tea Silk ......

These five industries are more profitable than grain, and Zhu Youzhen can still intervene in food, but he can't interfere with these five things.

Not to mention that there are many Ming Dynasty vassal kings standing inside, even a large number of nobles in the south are also standing among them.

Therefore, only by taking grain can Liaodong be saved, and only then can he make money, so that he can afford to raise the army.

"Wang An!"

Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao spoke, and Wang An also stepped forward.

"How much silver do you have left?"

"There are still 2,370,000 taels ......," Wang An replied honestly, and after Zhu Youxiao heard it, he could only say to Zhu Youzhen:

"There are still a lot of places where the court needs to use silver, I will give you 300,000 taels first, if this matter does not work, my brother will stop thinking about other things."

From the tone of voice, Zhu Youzhen could hear that the good imperial brother did not think that he could do this, but Zhu Youzhen had confidence in himself.

If it really didn't work, he asked the imperial brother to seal his domain to the Great Ryukyu, and directly landed in the Great Ryukyu in advance, recruited the hungry, and cultivated the fields.

The Great Ryukyu Plain alone can reclaim tens of millions of acres of cultivated land, and as long as there are enough people, he can completely reclaim hundreds of thousands of acres within three years.

As long as these hundreds of thousands of acres begin to produce in three years, they can be expanded in the future.

As long as there are millions of acres of cultivated land, even if it is thirty to one, according to the climatic characteristics of the Great Ryukyus, it is relatively easy to contribute tens of thousands of stone of grain and hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous items a year.

To put it another ugly, he directly put the sailor on the table, and made a roadblock there, and did Zheng Zhilong's business in advance.

Although it is not as much as the annual income of 10 million taels boasted by later generations, there are also 500,000 or 600,000 taels.

All kinds of things add up, six or seven hundred thousand taels of silver and tens of thousands of stone grain, enough for him to raise a group of more than 10,000 people.

When the time comes, Daming is really going to die, so he will take his good royal brother and liberate himself to go to Nanyang.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen nodded and said:

"Don't worry, brother, just leave this matter to me."

"Hmm...... Dine! Perhaps he didn't care about this matter, Zhu Youxiao saw that Zhu Youzhen didn't say anything more, so he started chatting with him about some interesting things in Changping.

While they were chatting, several officials were also sitting upright in a side hall of the Wenhua Palace, and the atmosphere was serious.

"Brother Jingwen, this time His Royal Highness is in a hurry, I'm afraid something will happen again."

In the hall, the first to speak was Fang Congzhe, who called Sun Ruyou's cousin, and Sun Ruyou also said after hearing his words:

"If you think about it carefully, it was only after the Zhejiang soldiers went to Changping that they had the capital to recruit troops in the south, and they also had the idea of vainly asking them to escort Caoyin to the north."

"It seems that we underestimated the two left by the emperor......"

Sun Ruyou frowned tightly, but an official on the left suddenly said:

"It's better to think of a way directly to disrupt the idea of the five highnesses trying to control the Imperial Horse Supervisor?"

"What's the solution?" Sun Ruyou said a little sarcastically:

"The Imperial Horse Supervisor is the Son of Heaven's choice, and he has his own grassland Huangzhuang, which can be said to be self-sufficient."

"Right now, it's the Fifth Highness in charge of the troops, unless Banzai is suspicious of the Five Highnesses, it is impossible to ask the Five Highnesses to withdraw from the Imperial Horse Prison."

"The military power still has to be managed, at least withdraw the three guards of Yulin." Fang Congzhe played a round game, but Yao Zongwen, who was lying down, said:

"I once asked the British duke, what he meant was that there were too many vacancies in the three guards of Yulin, and it would be troublesome to get it back, so I didn't want to get involved."

"What a coincidence!" An official sneered:

"When I was inspected by Jing, I was kind and angry, and now I need to do something, but I know that I am eating empty salary."

"Okay, Liu Xunpress, think about yourself in advance now." Fang Congzhe frowned and spoke.

When Liu Xunji heard Fang Congzhe's words, he also knew what he was talking about, so he could only keep his mouth shut.

He was the first judge of the original attack case, because of the Qu Pi prisoner Zhang Cha, a few days ago by the Donglin Party member Wang Zhihuan impeached again, now it is a mud Bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself.

After getting the reminder, he closed his mouth, but Yao Zongwen said:

"Although the British Duke doesn't want to recall the Yulin Sanwei, but most of the Yulin Sanwei are empty, and the same is true for the Imperial Horse Supervisor, I'm afraid that the Fifth Highness will not use it if he wants to train the troops."

"As far as the income of the Imperial Horse Supervisor is concerned, I am afraid that I will not be able to support these 30,000 soldiers and horses, and then His Royal Highness will retreat."

"There are many ways to make money, as long as His Royal Highness is willing, a large amount of businessmen will send him a famous post." Sun Ruyou interrupted Yao Zongwen's words.

For that group of businessmen, as long as Zhu Youzhen asked Zhu Youxiao for some tea and salt, I am afraid that it would be very simple to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver every year.

Therefore, in the face of such a situation, Sun Ruyou thought about it before speaking:

"The master of ceremonies needs to keep an eye on the soothing that the master of ceremonies came out, and the matter of tea and salt can't be dealt with by His Royal Highness Five."

"As long as these are controlled, the income of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, one or two thousand troops is insignificant."

"As for Qi Jin's side, it's better to send someone to try, it's best to reconcile, but if it doesn't work, use other means."

"Uh-hu......h," he said, and everyone nodded, and after confirming that everything was right, they retreated.

Only that Sun Ruyou, with gloomy eyes, didn't know what he was thinking in his heart......
