Chapter 217: Eight... Eight... 800 million?!

Inside the Kunning Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang rarely found time today to accompany Queen Ma and his children.

"Sister, don't you know, we were sharp-eyed at the beginning, and we could see at a glance that Li Jin was different."

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the main seat, surrounded by Queen Ma and Zhu Biao, as well as Zhu Yuanzhang's other children.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was boasting with his children about his great Ming sailor and sweeping the sea.

Since he wants to boast about naval battles, he naturally can't avoid Li Jin, so Li Jin has become a genius who Zhu Yuanzhang has a unique vision and can see at a glance.

It is precisely because of Zhu Yuanzhang's support that Li Jin can have the opportunity to display his talent and become Huo Qubing at sea.

Now that Li Jin is directly leading the warship and going straight to Wadao, wouldn't it be more dignified than Wei Qinghuo's illness back then?

"Now my Daming Navy Division is crisscrossing the sea, no one is invincible, clearing the universe, and beating the crying father and mother, this is all our credit."

"In the future, it will be recorded in the history books that what the Yuan Dynasty did not do back then, was done by our Zhu Yuanzhang."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyebrows fluttered, complacent, these days, the good news from the front line of Wadao made Zhu Yuanzhang feel very relieved.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang's beard was happily curled, indicating that Zhu Yuanzhang was in a happy mood at the moment.

In front of his children, Zhu Yuanzhang rarely had such a gaffe, but the smooth operation of the war on Wadao Island made Zhu Yuanzhang a little embarrassed.

The Jinyi Guard, who is installed in the navy, can be said to be very competent, basically every day, there are clippers sailing out of Iwami Port, heading to Daming, and reporting the latest battle situation of Iwami to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Yes, Zhu Yuanzhang already knew about Li Jin and Xu Da at this time, and they occupied Iwami Country and Iwami Silver Mountain respectively.

This made Zhu Yuanzhang very happy, after all, the strategic goal agreed upon by the previous few people was to take Iwami Country and the port, and then occupy Iwami Silver Mountain, secretly mine silver mines, and fill the treasury of the Ming Dynasty.

Now that everything is going according to plan, Zhu Yuanzhang even feels that soon, he will no longer worry about the silver.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang so sassy, the corners of Queen Ma's mouth twitched next to her, and she said:

"I don't know who shouted and shouted to kill at the beginning, but I have to say that Li Jin is a corrupt official, and he wants to raid people's homes and cut off people's heads."

"As a result, now I see that others have made great contributions, and they have become Bole, and Li Jin is regarded as a thousand miles."

"It's so shameless!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's old face was a little unbearable, and his face was slightly red.

After all, it was his sister-in-law who dismantled the stage and participated in the experience, when Zhu Yuanzhang shouted and shouted to kill, Queen Ma was next to her.

If it hadn't been for Queen Ma to stop her, I'm afraid that Li Jin would have been sent on the road by Zhu Yuanzhang many times.

"Look at it, look at it, girl, can you not keep demolishing our platform."

"That's... Then Li Jin's shipyard was given to him by us at the beginning, right? ”

"If there is no shipyard in our shipyard, he can kill all sides in the sea and beat the widows to cry and call his mother?"

Princess Qinghe, who was on the side, heard this, covered her mouth with her right hand, and her eyes were smiling, looking extremely cute.

Queen Ma was not used to Zhu Yuanzhang, so she glanced at him angrily and said:

"You are embarrassed to say that a broken shipyard has few rotten nails, and it ended up selling to people for millions of taels of silver."

"Are you giving someone a shipyard? You are blackmailing, if it weren't for the identity of your imperial relatives, you would have been arrested and imprisoned by Li Jin. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was a little red, it was true that he didn't do it very authentically, but it was also Li Jin's corruption in front of him at the beginning, which made him feel that Li Jin was a big corrupt official.

To deal with this kind of big corrupt official, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally did everything.

However, such an inauthentic thing was mentioned by Queen Ma in front of her children, Zhu Yuanzhang always felt a little embarrassed, so he simply stopped blowing it, and lowered his head and ate the bun in his hand tightly.

Zhu Yuanzhang was reluctant to say, but Princess Qinghe was very curious, stared at the big eyes of Shui Lingling, and asked:

"Imperial relatives? Isn't my father the emperor? When did you become a relative of the emperor? ”

Queen Ma explained:

"Your father claimed to be surnamed Huang and said that he was a relative of Zhu Yuanzhang."

"Li Jin was fooled by him, and he still doesn't know the identity of your father!"

Princess Qinghe's eyes widened in astonishment, she didn't expect that there was such a relationship, but she was even more curious about Li Jin in her heart.

Just when the family was happily eating the reunion dinner, suddenly a little eunuch hurriedly walked into the hall, bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and said:

"Your Majesty, there is a letter from the East China Sea."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up, and then he said:

"There's news from Li Jin over there, we have to go and see, you eat first, we will stay in the Qianqing Palace tonight, don't wait for us."

Queen Ma saw Zhu Yuanzhang in a hurry, shook her head, I don't know when, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more interested in the sea.

I feel that when dealing with Mongolia now, I don't care about the sea as much as I do.

Queen Ma didn't understand the things at sea, so it was inconvenient to intervene, after all, the Ming marine strategy was also proposed by Li Jin.

If there is anyone in the Ming Dynasty who knows the sea best, Queen Ma feels that it must be Li Jin.

I can only hope that Li Jin's judgment of the ocean is correct, otherwise I really don't know where the Ming Dynasty will go in the future?

After Zhu Biao saw Zhu Yuanzhang get up and leave, he also hurriedly stood up, said goodbye to Queen Ma, and followed Zhu Yuanzhang.

After all, only he and Zhu Yuanzhang know about Iwami Yinshan, neither the ministers of the court nor the central government, nor even Queen Ma.

Now that Li came in to write the letter, it must be about Iwami Ginzan.

For this silver mountain, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao both attach absolute importance to it, because Li Jin once said that the reserves of this silver mountain are as high as 500 million taels of silver.

If this is the case, then this silver mountain will become a national heirloom, and it can be used throughout their five hundred years of the Ming Dynasty.

This is a very terrifying number, you must know that since the Zhou Dynasty, there has been no dynasty in China for three hundred years.

If the Ming Dynasty occupies such a silver mountain, the country's finances will be greatly relieved in five hundred years.

Zhu Yuanzhang even felt that this silver mountain could continue the national glory for the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years.

Therefore, after hearing Li Jin's news, Zhu Yuanzhang was so out of shape that he didn't even care about the banquet and returned directly to the study, ready to deal with the matter.

When Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao arrived in the upper study, they saw Mao Xiang and a messenger waiting in the hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked into the hall, and he didn't even sit on the dragon chair, so he directly asked the messenger to take out the fold, and he was already a little eager to see if this silver mountain was worthy of its name.

When Zhu Yuanzhang opened the secret letter, he began to read it carefully, for fear of missing a word.

After Zhu Yuanzhang saw clearly the reserves reported by Li Jin above, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes instantly bulged, his face turned red, and even his whole body trembled slightly.

Zhu Biao, who was on the side, noticed the abnormality, hurriedly went up to help Zhu Yuanzhang, and asked with concern:

"Father, what's wrong with you?"

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't realize it, but finally muttered:

"Eight... Eight... 800 million ?!! ”

Zhu Biao was a little unclear, so I didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by this.

But Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked at the envoy and asked loudly:

"The letter says that a miner is coming back, but what about the miner?"

The messenger hurriedly replied:

"It's just outside the palace."

"Mao Xiang, bring that person over immediately, we have something to ask them."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked in a hurry, and Zhu Biao was very curious, like a cat's paw scratching, wanting to know what made Zhu Yuanzhang so excited.

finally took the fold, and after Zhu Biao saw the reserves on it, he showed the same look as Zhu Yuanzhang, and said happily:

"Father, I will have the silver to conquer Mobei in the future."

"With the money for disaster relief, our people will no longer be displaced and hungry."

"Our court can help these people and let them live and work in peace and contentment."
