Li Ming couldn't help but purse his lips shyly when he saw everyone looking at him.

He had been living in the shadows for the early years, and he was very unaccustomed to this kind of attention.

But now that he has decided to step out of the shadows and embrace the light, he can only force himself to adapt.

"The lower officials think this move is inappropriate......

"Potatoes are a very high-yielding crop, and even if they are not cultivated in the Kondu region, how can this artifact be given to the Ottomans?"

"This is unfair to the people of Kangdu, and it will add a lot of trouble!"

In fact, the reason why Li Ming opposes it is that there is a greater selfishness, that is, the hatred of destroying the country.

Everyone in the Military Aircraft Division knew about it, so they only listened casually to his reasoning.

"Is there any other reason?"

"Yes!"

"The Ottomans keep the throne and the army, once they no longer worry about food, it will be a very big trouble for the Ming in the future."

"Therefore, whether it is from personal feelings or from the interests of our Ming Dynasty, I don't think we can give the seeds of potatoes to the Ottomans."

"Xiaguan has answered!"

Lan Yu nodded when she heard this, and then looked at Zhang Zongjun.

"Let's talk about it, Lord Zhang."

Zhang Zongjun smiled calmly when he heard this.

"The old man's reason is inconvenient to say, but the old man is resolutely opposed to giving potatoes to the Ottomans, and even in a few decades, the old man will not let the potato varieties cross the Tianshan Mountains!"

"This ......"

As soon as Zhang Zongjun's words came out, everyone fell silent.

Zhang Zongjun has a special status in the Military Aircraft Department, and he can represent the will of His Majesty the Emperor to a certain extent, and he is the nail and eye left by His Majesty the Emperor in the Military Aircraft Department.

Since Zhang Zongjun said that it is inconvenient to say, it is very likely that this matter involves His Majesty.

Although Lan Yu was unhappy, she didn't dare to ask more, so she just snorted angrily.

"Since Lord Zhang doesn't want to say it, then let's play separately and ask His Majesty the Emperor to decide."

Hearing this, Zhang Zongjun immediately stood up and looked at Lan Yu solemnly.

"Liang Guogong, the lower official advises you not to take this matter to Your Majesty!"

"Once some things are in the daily life, it will not be good for Da Ming and His Majesty......"

Lan Yu's face changed a few times when he heard this, and then he pulled Zhang Zongjun outside, found a secluded corridor and said.

"Lao Zhang, what's going on here?"

"Liang Guogong, don't ask too much, let alone play Your Majesty to embarrass Your Majesty......"

"How did I deal with overseas slaves in the early years, I think Liang Guogong has heard about it, right?"

"There are some things I can't say, but as long as you know it's not all me."

"Hiss......"

Even if Lan Yu is stupid, he can hear that something is wrong, in the early years, Zhang Zongjun corrupted overseas slaves, which caused a lot of abuse, and finally had to be demoted out of Beijing.

If according to what Zhang Zongjun just said, this matter is not all his decision, doesn't it mean that His Majesty the Emperor is also ......

Lan Yu didn't dare to think about it anymore when she thought of this, and hurriedly stopped the topic.

"The old man understands!"

"If it is not of my race, its heart will be different!"

Zhang Zongjun smiled with satisfaction when he heard this.

"Yes!"

"Liang Guogong is to the point!"

"In the early years, His Majesty once said that this is the land of our Ming Dynasty, and we must give birth to our people. As for the people in this land now, they can only let time slowly eliminate them. ”

Lan Yu's heart sank when he heard this, but he was quickly relieved, and even a little excited, feeling that this was His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

If the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is not oriented to the people of the Ming Dynasty and thinks about being good to the people of other countries all day long, then he is still a fart emperor?

"Good!"

"That's right!"

"The old man knew what to do, so he tore up the letter when he went back, and then transferred Ping Bao'er back and replaced it with someone else!"

After a short time, Lan Yu and Zhang Zongjun returned to the military aircraft with a smile, never mentioning the matter of Ping Bao'er's twist.

Fu Youde lowered his head and thought for a while, and when he saw that neither of them mentioned it anymore, he didn't mention it, Feng Sheng was too lazy to care about these idle things, and when he saw that others didn't talk about it, he was even more pure.

Only Li Ming was a little confused in his heart, and looked at Zhang Zongjun curiously, guessing what reason this old man used to persuade Lan Yu?

Although Li Ming did not want to give potatoes to the Ottomans, he hoped to introduce potatoes to the Kangdu area to alleviate the food shortage in the area.

As long as Kangdu grows potatoes in large quantities, he is sure that in less than ten years, Kangdu will become the richest place in the world.

But no one else mentioned it, let alone he, a newcomer to the military aircraft department, so he could only wait for an opportunity later.

Li Ming studied at the Military Aircraft Department for a few days, thinking that his future days would be like this, but unexpectedly, ten days later, he suddenly received a telegram from Jinling, which pushed him to a height that he never dared to dream of.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty actually approved his Pingxi barbarian strategy and asked him to personally preside over the matter!

At the same time, his position was also improved accordingly, and his mansion and retinue were assigned by the imperial court, and his daughter-in-law was also ordered by the imperial court.

All of this shows that he has entered the upper echelons of Daming officialdom, and it also indicates that his fate is tied to Daming.

Li Ming's first decision in power was to allocate 200 catties of gold to repair the Byzantine Cathedral and the Holy See in Rome.

Although the two hundred catties of gold to repair the two cathedrals are a bit stretched, they are still precious to the declining Holy See.

Because Boyi IX can show off to the countries of the Western world with this, he has already won the support of the powerful Ming Dynasty, and he no longer has to fear the threat of the madman King Charles VI of France!

Boyi IX immediately proclaimed the Ming Dynasty as the guardian of God in the Holy See, and preached the kindness and benevolence of the Ming Dynasty to the people of the West.

The remarks of Boyi IX soon reached France, causing dissatisfaction among the French aristocracy.

In their impression, there are no good people from the East.

Whether it was the pagan Ottomans or the Mongols in the early years, it was their nightmare.

However, at this time, there was a serious struggle for power and profit in France, and it was difficult to form a unified voice, so he did not send troops to arrest Boyi IX at the first time, but chose to continue to fight for the position of regent.

Relatively speaking, Henry V of England was much more normal, and he expressed his dissatisfaction with the Pope at the first time, spreading the news that the Pope had received the benefits of the Ming Dynasty, in an attempt to pull the entire West into the abyss of no return.

But Henry V's rhetoric was quickly drowned out, and it turned out that the Ming Dynasty, in order to show peace and goodwill, began to give relief to the victims of the disaster all over Europe, repaired churches, and treated the poor for free.

This series of measures, combined with the propaganda of Boyi IX, made Henry V's opposition like a clown.

Far from shaking the papacy, Henry V was met with resistance from his own people because of his opposition to the pope's remarks and his efforts to discredit the Ming dynasty.

But Henry V still did not give up, and has been sparing no effort to promote the theory of the Ming threat and secretly train the army.

Henry V's efforts were not in vain, and after two months of hard training, his country finally received an attack from the Ming fleet.

London fell, Henry V was captured......

After Henry V was captured by the Ming army, there was no opposition in the whole of Europe, and all the poor people who were oppressed by the European aristocracy were looking forward to the arrival of the Ming Dynasty.

Because they heard from the missionaries that when the Ming army came, they would no longer have to endure the exploitation of the lords, and they could live a good life by their own hard work.

Li Ming laid out the whole of Europe for several months, and finally sent troops in the winter.

As soon as the Ming army was dispatched, the countries encountered along the way all surrendered without a fight, and even many local people cheered along the streets to celebrate the arrival of the Ming army.

The Ming army did not disappoint them, and sent them endless food for free.

Under the command of Li Ming, the Ming army fought from the Ottomans to the English Channel in only one month, completely incorporating the whole of Europe into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Even some small countries that have negative resistance, under the suppression of the powerful firepower of the Ming Dynasty, have only one way to perish.

The remaining countries either surrendered voluntarily or were coerced into surrender by the population.

In short, whether they want to or not, they have become de facto vassal states of the Ming Dynasty.

When the good news reached the capital, the civil and military officials cheered, and the historians' eyes lit up with excitement, and they were very excited to witness history.

The people of the capital were also very excited, and tens of thousands of people spontaneously gathered outside the palace and shouted long live in the direction of the palace.

Zhu Yunxi listened to the sound of the mountain outside the hall shouting long live, and stood quietly in front of the huge map.

At this time, the map of the Ming Dynasty was already a behemoth that included the Eurasian continent and the North Pole in the future, and in addition to this crimson land, there was a huge golden continent, which was also planted with the red flag of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the map full of red flags, and a lot of pride rose in his chest, he finally walked to the height that Genghis Khan had never reached in his life!

Next, it's time to rule this vast region!

Book the same text!

The car is on the same track!

Unified currency, unified weights and measures, unified ......

Lao Zhu was also very excited to come to the palace when he learned that the Ming army on land and the Ming army on the sea were meeting on the western border, and when he saw the eldest grandson standing alone in front of the giant map in a daze, Lao Zhu stepped forward with interest and quipped.

"Rebel grandson, where are you worried?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head bitterly when he heard this.

"Don't worry, with the current population base of the Ming Dynasty, it would be good to be able to fill these places!"

"In the next few decades of government, there will be a national policy, that is, to recuperate and breed the population."

"I'm going to increase the population of Daming fivefold during my reign!"

Lao Zhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, he was really afraid that the eldest grandson would be obsessed with this kind of conquest game and would not be able to extricate himself.

"Good Holy Sun!"

"We really didn't see the wrong person, we are very happy that you can have such self-control!"

After Lao Zhu praised Zhu Yunxi, he couldn't help but look at the huge land below Europe.

"Eldest grandson, why don't you fight this place?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at the African region in the future, and said after a while.

"You can't ask for it here, it's a park for grandchildren to leave to future generations, so that they can know the diversity of species."

"Uh-uh......"

Lao Zhu was directly speechless by this, and said in his heart that this grandson's tone is too big, take a land bigger than Daming as a park?

"That's where the black slaves they brought from the sea, right?"

"Yes......"

When Lao Zhu heard this affirmative reply, he immediately understood in his heart, the reason why this rebel grandson didn't fight here should be to use this place as a slave breeding base, right?

However, now the shortage of slaves in Daming is indeed quite large, and there are hundreds of cargo ships full of slaves in the port every day, selling slaves from various countries to Daming.

Some of these people were bought back by the workshop owners to work as slaves, some were bought back by the landlords to farm, and some were bought back by other feudal lords to reclaim the land.

It is said that Zhu Zhi has bought a lot in the past few years, and he has bought fifty or sixty thousand yuan, all of which he threw to the bitter cold land of Liaodong to open up the wasteland.

Just as Lao Zhu was maliciously speculating about Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Yunxi suddenly said depressedly.

"Grandpa Huang, my grandson used to only think about how to bring down these places, but he didn't think about how to govern them."

"Now that there is such a big place and such a large population, how can the grandchildren rule them?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his eldest grandson in surprise when he heard this.

"Isn't it good to govern in Kangdu?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head when he heard this.

"It's different!"

"Kang Du is to set an example for the Western world and let them know our benevolence."

"Now that the whole West is ours, why are we still pretending to be like that?"

Lao Zhu Wenyan was also confused, because he hadn't thought about this kind of problem either.

However, Lao Zhu had a similar experience, he had the same confusion when he unified the whole country, and he didn't know how to govern such a huge country for a while.

Fortunately, with the assistance of Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang and others, they barely could.

"Eldest grandson, one person is short, ten people are long, why don't you ask Yu Qunchen?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head again when he heard this.

"No way!"

"The Chinese courtiers are all Confucian disciples, and I am afraid that they will use the Confucian system on these foreign races."

"Grandpa Huang, let's say in private, I don't want to make the people in the West feel better at all, I just want to use our Ming people to replace the people in the West little by little."

"Hiss......"

Lao Zhu couldn't help but have a toothache when he heard the ambition of his eldest grandson, and said in his heart that this grandson really dared to think about it. He didn't dare to think about this when he fought Beiyuan, he just thought about attacking Beiyuan and winning them over, so that they would gradually be used by the Ming Dynasty.

But when he arrived at his eldest grandson, he didn't think about leaving a way for people to live.

"Eldest grandson, it's not right for you to think like this, as for why it's wrong, we haven't thought about it yet......"

Zhu Yunxi didn't care what Lao Zhu thought, he just suddenly thought about Zhang Zongjun a little, if this Lao Yinbi was next to him, he would definitely be able to come up with a good way for him.

"Someone, send an urgent telegram to Kangdu, and ask Zhang Zongjun to return to Jinling as soon as possible......"

Before Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lao Zhu.

"Why did you call him back?"

"Let him give me ideas!"

"The idea is not simple, can you just use the methods we used in toast in the Western world?"

"What?"

Lao Zhu saw that the eldest grandson hadn't understood yet, so he couldn't help but break it and crumple it and tell him.

"First canonize them and recognize their right to rule. Then recruit their children to study in the country, and take them hostage while assimilating them. ”

This lasted for several generations, and they became accustomed to the canonization of the Ming Dynasty. Once someone sets himself up as a king, those Tusi who accept the canonization of our Ming Dynasty will not only not help him, but will also unite to beat him, thinking that he has broken the rules......"

"Then every few years, gather the world's Tusi to come to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute, let them see the majesty of the Heavenly Empire, and they will not dare to make a ...... for decades."

Under Lao Zhu's teaching, Zhu Yunxi quickly understood Lao Zhu's remediation methods.

The so-called Turen ruling the land was just a transition in Lao Zhu's place, and when he recognized the legitimate right of Tusi to rule the local area, he spared no effort to immigrate to the local area, build a city, and radiate around the city as the center.

In Lao Zhu's words, now that we have few people, of course we have to rely on the governance of Tusi. When there are more local Ming people than Fanmin, we can change the land and return to the stream, and set up a county order to govern the place for us.

Zhu Yunxi listened to the methods of a top strategist like Lao Zhu, and in addition to admiring it, he still admired it.

"Thank you Grandpa Huang for solving your doubts, my grandson knows what to do!"

After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he confidently walked out of the hall and accepted the congratulations of hundreds of officials and thousands of people in the capital.

Lao Zhu sat on the threshold of the main hall and rejected Zhu Yunxi's invitation to ride with him with a smile.

Lao Zhu didn't want to steal the limelight from his eldest grandson, but how could Zhu Yunxi enjoy it alone?

"Grandpa Huang, this is not the glory of our grandson alone, it is the glory of our grandfather and grandson!"

After Zhu Yunxi said this, regardless of whether Lao Zhu agreed or not, he stepped forward and forcibly dragged Lao Zhu up, then stuffed him on his shoulders and sat down, and then sat down himself.

"You rebel grandson, you don't want us to be clean at all!"

Lao Zhu said complaining words on his lips, but his heart was already like eating honey.

Qin Deshun and Wang De saw that the two emperors, one old and one young, were seated, and shouted "start driving" in unison.

In the melodious driving sound of the two, thirty-six brocade-clothed wrestlers got up with their shoulders raised, crossed the Danqi, passed through, and came to the crowded palace square to accept the worship of hundreds of civil and military officials and the people of the capital.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Long live Daming!"

Testimonials

To be honest, I didn't expect this book to take so long, let alone write it so long.

I didn't even think that I would be able to get results before the book was released, I originally thought that I could have hundreds of orders, and I would be content to write a high-quality badge for a year.

I never expected the first high-quality product, and a few months later, ten thousand orders!

Although I am very satisfied with the results, I also found a lot of problems in writing, such as when it comes to big scenes and war scenes, I can't write about emotional scenes, and when it comes to emotional dramas, it is like child's play.

Overall, this book has a lot of shortcomings, and the backlash is even worse, but you still tolerate me.

I'm here to thank you!

I'm going to take a few days off, maybe and I'm going to have surgery on the other day.

I was supposed to do it in June, but I was almost going to be hospitalized, but when I asked how long it would take to recover after surgery, I ran away from the hospital again.

The specific cause has not been revealed, we are not people who like to sell miserably.

The next new book has basically been determined, it may be the Great Song Dynasty, or it may be the Great Qin.

Interested readers can leave a message, do you like Da Song or Da Qin?
