Songjiang Mansion, City Ship Wharf.

When Zhu Yunxi built the city's Bosi Wharf, he planned it according to the millennium plan.

Many facilities may not be able to meet the millennium plan, but the scale of the wharf, as well as the warehouses and berths on the shore, are definitely far beyond the current throughput of Daming, and there is great wealth.

At first, everyone advised him to change to a smaller size, thinking that he would not need such a big place at all.

However, no one expected that it had only been a few years since the opening of the city's port, and almost half of the berths had been used, and the warehouse on the shore had been used even more.

Fortunately, a lot of vacant land was reserved during the planning of that year, and it could be expanded at any time as long as there was demand.

Otherwise, they really don't know what to do when they are suddenly faced with such a large cargo throughput.

The City Boss Division lifted Lu Shiyuan to pat Zhu Yunxi's ass vigorously along the way, saying that he was forward-looking and had predicted the grand occasion of the City Boss Division many years in advance.

When other officials heard this, they were even more ridiculous, praising Zhu Yunxi as the first far-sighted saint in ancient times.

Zhu Yunxi listened to the sycophants of the officials, and his face was full of smug smiles.

He finally knew why there were so many faint kings in ancient times, who were held and offered every day, and who was so confused!

Zhu Yunxi still knows how many pounds and taels he has, and he will not be fluttering because of a few compliments from his subordinates. After inspecting the wharf of the city and seeing the cargo ships coming from south to north, he gave some instructions for the future work of the city ship.

"The next focus is to focus on building the Greater Mingyang Economic Circle, and in this process, the position of your city is very important."

"Our Ming Dynasty's cotton, silk, tea and other things must be trafficked out by the City Shipping Division, and silver and goods from Japan, Ryukyu, Vietnam and other places will also be transported to the mainland through the City Shipping Division to feed back our Ming industry."

"In addition, it is necessary to establish and improve the corresponding laws and regulations, I saw a lot of foreign feudal people haunting the streets along the way, and our Ming government has the obligation and responsibility to protect the safety of the lives and property of foreign feudal merchants in Daming, but at the same time, we must also restrain them and prevent them from breaking the law and discipline......"

"Grace and power are the way to last for a long time!"

When Lu Shiyuan heard this, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"The lowly post understands, and when the humiliation goes back, he will draft a document with the Songjiang prefect......"

"By the way, Your Highness, there have been many lawsuits between the Ming people and Fanbang women in recent years. There is no explicit provision in our Daming law that it is forbidden to marry a woman from a foreign domain, but there are many disputes among the people, and I hope that the emperor's grandson will show it. ”

"Recently, Beigong will issue a new law, and you can refer to the new law when the time comes."

Lu Shiyuan happily stroked his hands and praised when he heard this.

"It's great to have a law to follow, so as not to embarrass Weichen and the prefect of Songjiang, hehehe......"

Just as the two were chatting and laughing and discussing the relevant legal details, several huge cargo ships sailed over the sea.

As soon as Zhu Yunxi saw this huge hull, he knew that it was a No. A fortune ship specially built for ocean freight transportation in the past two years.

This kind of ship is not only expensive, but also belongs to the imperial court's explicit control, prohibiting private private trading of official ships.

However, what surprised him was that these A-numbered fortune ships did not hang any official signs on board, but hung a flame skull flag that should not appear in Daming.

This thing should have been active in the Mediterranean, or the Red Sea, so it shouldn't have come to Daming.

What's more, the ship they used was still the lucky ship of the Ming Dynasty!

"What's going on with these ships?"

Lu Shiyuan's face turned pale on the spot when he heard this, and he said tremblingly.

"Returning to Your Highness, this ship ...... This ship is a military ......"

"Weichen doesn't know, please forgive your highness!"

Lu Shiyuan didn't dare to tell the background of these ships after all, so he could only grit his teeth and kneel on the ground to plead guilty.

Zhu Yunxi looked at him like this, and he already had some answers in his heart.

These ships should be the ships of the military!

It's just that the Ming Navy is really so bold that it dares to be a pirate openly?

"Someone!"

"When these ships dock, arrest the people above, and be sure to find out the mastermind behind the scenes!"

"No matter who is involved in this matter, Lone will not let it go easily!"

"No!"

Zhu Yunxi brought a lot of people with him on this trip, and they were the elites of the Jinyiwei, Xingwuwei, and Jing Navy New Army.

After Zhu Yunxi's order was issued, Xu Liuzi rushed to lead the team, but was stopped by Zhu Yunxi.

"Xu Liuzi stop!"

"Sun Zhengyu, you bring people over, and you must bring back all the people on the boat!"

"If someone commits suicide, jumps into the sea, or escapes halfway, you are the only one who asks!"

"No!"

Sun Zhengyu is a Qianhu of Jinghaiwei's new army, and he has just graduated from the military academy for a few months, and he has no heels in Jinyiwei or in the navy's base camp, Jingjun, and is most suitable for doing this kind of thing.

Xu Liuzi saw Sun Zhengyu leaving with someone with a righteous face, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"Your Highness, this matter ......"

Zhu Yunxi was angry when he saw Xu Liuzi's appearance, and he raised his foot and kicked it.

"You are so daring, you dare to embezzle the official ship from Lone!"

"Your Highness, you don't dare, this matter has nothing to do with the lowly position, the lowly position is just a substitute for ......"

"Who does that have to do with that?"

Hearing this, Xu Liuzi looked at the hundreds of officials on the left and right, and said with a look of embarrassment.

"Your Highness, take a step to speak......"

"No!"

"Lonely and upright, you don't need to avoid anyone!"

Xu Liuzi saw that Zhu Yunxi was so deep in the play, and immediately chose to pretend to be dead like Lu Shiyuan.

"Since His Highness said so, then this matter is humbled and ......"

"Willing to be punished!"

Zhu Yunxi saw Xu Liuzi put on such a posture that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and his heart suddenly became a little hairy, could this matter be related to the royal family?

"Ahem......"

"Don't worry, if it is found out that it is related to you, Lone will not tolerate it!"

On the No. A fortune ship, Li Da, a retired navy member of Jinghaiwei, looked at the dock close at hand, and finally showed a relieved smile on his face.

The road was so dangerous that I almost died in the sea several times.

Fortunately, the emperor's grandson blessed them and let them escape the wind and waves, and stumbled back to Daming along the way.

Li Da beckoned to the people on the shore, and then issued a series of orders to the ragtag army behind him.

"Dogs, let's get to Daming, hurry up and bring our goods up, so that the nobles on the shore can see the goods we brought back this time!"

"Okay!"

The miscellaneous armies from more than a dozen countries responded with all kinds of mixed Ming dialects, and then opened the hatch door of the hatch, pulled the sail of the sail, and threw the anchor of the ship.

Although they have different skin colors, some black and some white, some brown and some yellow. But they were methodical, well-organized, and even more enthusiastic, talking and laughing.

They are all subordinate to a branch of the Ming Jing Navy, the Maritime Slave Trapping Team, which specializes in capturing slaves in various countries and then trafficking them to the Ming Dynasty.

As the cabins were opened, black and white slaves in shackles were brought up from the cabins.

These slaves had never seen sunlight all the way, and when they were illuminated by the sun, they suddenly felt that the sky was dark and their eyes hurt.

But they couldn't cover it with their hands, so they could only squint their eyes, dodging the dazzling glare of the sun while greedy for the temperature of the sun.

They don't have much aversion to their slave status, and they even have a bit of a fluke.

Because it is rumored throughout Europe that the Ming Dynasty is a place of milk and honey, full of gold, as quiet and peaceful as heaven.

They can be sold into slavery by the Ming Dynasty, but it is their creation.

This kind of saying is not only circulated in European countries, but also many people on their ships say that even if it is a ragtag army that takes care of them, they are not angry and scold them for their good lives, as long as they survive until the Ming Dynasty, they can live a good life of eating and drinking spicy food.

They don't really believe that they can eat and drink spicy food, they just want to work without starving.

However, just as they were enjoying a moment of tranquility and secretly praying that they would meet a kind master who would buy them away, a group of people suddenly rushed up from the shore and "banged" two gunshots into the air, making everyone kneel.

They can't understand the Da Ming language, but they can still understand the word "kneel".

Because that's how they came on their knees all the way.

The slaves knelt on the deck very obediently, while the motley coalition looked at their leader Li Da with a worried face.

As soon as Li Da saw the other party's clothes, he said to everyone with a smile.

"Don't be afraid, it's all your own people!"

"Hey!"

"You're a recruit of the Jing Navy, right?"

"I am also from the Jing Navy, I was injured and retired when I went to sea to perform a mission two years ago, and now I work for the logistics department of the Jing Navy!"

Sun Zhengyu, who was on the ship to perform the task, did not hesitate at all when he heard the other party's words, and immediately fired a shot at Li Da, which hit the headband on his head.

"Get on your knees!"

"We are ordered by the emperor's grandson to track down the private use of the official ship, I don't care who you are, what background you have, shut up honestly before I interrogate you!"

Li Da was suddenly shot, and he was so frightened that he knelt down with a thud.

However, after kneeling, he scolded the eighteenth generation of this young descendant ancestor in his heart.

This stinky boy, if he is a little bit higher, his head will be blown up!

No, what did he just say, what did he say about the imperial grandson?

Could it be that the emperor's grandson is here, and he just happened to see these boats?

When Li Da thought of this, his heart suddenly went up and down.

Although their business was successful, they didn't dare to let the emperor know about it, which was tantamount to hiding the private work done by the emperor grandson!

Now that he has been arrested by the imperial grandson, how should he explain to the people above!

Seeing that everyone was kneeling, Sun Zhengyu immediately ordered people to go to several other ships to do the same, and then completely controlled several boats.

As for finding the key person, it is even simpler, although there are many people on the ship, there are really not many yellow-skinned people, and even fewer people can speak fluently.

Therefore, he only had to pick the Ming people on the ship for questioning.

"What do you guys do?"

"Returning to the sir, we are from the logistics department of the Jing Navy, and we are responsible for capturing slaves and selling ......them to the Ming Dynasty."

"Who's backstage?"

"Who is the master?"

"Backstage...... The backstage should be Jing Haijun, right? ”

"The Chief...... The chief envoy didn't know, but I heard the head above say that it seemed to be the business of the emperor's grandson, and the city didn't dare to ask us to collect taxes! ”

When Sun Zhengyu heard this, he chuckled in his heart.

No wonder the imperial grandson wants to send himself up to investigate, dare to love this matter to the sky!

"Don't climb around!"

"This official came to interrogate you on the order of the imperial grandson, if it is really the imperial grandson's business, how can the imperial grandson not know?"

"Brother, I really didn't lie to you, I went to the Jing Navy Headquarters to receive disability subsidies before, and I personally listened to what the commander said, no one is allowed to share the profit of this slave fishing ship, and whoever dares to reach out will chop off anyone's hand!"

"Think about it, if it weren't for the deal of the imperial grandson, the commander of the Jing Navy could be so careful?"

"This ......"

Sun Zhengyu was directly speechless, and said in his heart, what is the matter, the imperial grandson ordered himself to check the imperial grandson's property, how should he pay for it?

"Tell us in detail, who else knows about this?"

"A lot of people know it, everyone in our Jing Navy knows it, everyone knows it!"

Sun Zhengyu rubbed his temples with a headache when he heard this.

"You write everything you know, sign it, draw it......"

"Medium!"

An hour later, Sun Zhengyu came to Zhu Yunxi with a stack of confessions to restore his life.

"Back to the emperor's grandson, the humble post has been interrogated clearly, and the ships are full of slaves captured from the land of Taixi, and they are specially transported to Daming for sale."

"This business involves the Jing Navy, and I dare not specialize in my humble position, so I hereby invite His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun to decide!"

Because of Xu Liuzi's hints, Zhu Yunxi's momentum is no longer as righteous and awe-inspiring as just now. He silently took the confession, flipped through it quickly, and saw that there was a faint disclosure of royal and other information on it, and he scolded with a gloomy face.

"How daring!"

"Hold them all on the ship first, and then clean them up after Gu finishes dealing with the planning of Songjiang Mansion New Town!"

Zhu Yunxi snorted angrily, gave Xu Liuzi a look, and then threw his sleeves and left.

Xu Liuzi hurriedly followed, and followed Zhu Yunxi to a secluded and uninhabited corner.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on!"

"Back to His Royal Highness, this matter was done by His Royal Highness Zhu Yunxi, and the whole Jing Navy knows it, but no one dares to tell you......"

"Hiss......"

Zhu Yunxi gasped when he heard this, and his hatred for a certain rebel grandson was +1000.

However, as soon as he thought about it, he realized that something was wrong, Zhu Yunxi may be stubborn, but after all, others are in the royal academy in the capital, how can they know the profits of the slave trade at sea, and how can they organize such a large fleet?

It's hard to make this stupid kid bear a false name in vain, and the benefits are all for others.

"Is this matter only Zhu Yunxi?"

"Back to Your Highness, this matter also involves the Duke of Liangguo, the Duke of Ying, the Duke of Wei, the Duke of Song and so on."

"They're all involved?"

"Is there anyone else?"

"There is ......"

"There are also Princess Lin'an, Princess Ningguo, Princess Anqing, ......"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this list of names, the expression on his face became even more ugly.

It's really their royal industry, looking at the shareholders, they can't write two Zhu characters with a single stroke!

"Is that all?"

"There are also His Royal Highness the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the Acting King, His Royal Highness the King of Liao, etc., ......"

"Hiss......"

Zhu Yunxi gritted his teeth with a headache again, and asked with a little annoyance.

"Grandpa Huang didn't participate, right?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, His Majesty really didn't participate, but Concubine Hui has a ...... in this industry"

"My day!"
