The other wealthy businessmen saw that Wanshan had come to the real thing, and their faces finally put away their laughter.

After some consideration, in the end, most of the rich businessmen chose to leave, and after counting Wanshan, there were only four rich businessmen left on the field.

After all, many of them don't rely on selling paper as their life, and most of them are pulled by friends to make a fortune, so they are not interested in following Wanshanhou to take risks.

There are also some wealthy businessmen who rely on papermaking as their lifeline to buy and sell, but they think that the production line model of Xiaohan Paper Mill is indeed efficient and advanced.

But there is really no need to go to the wilderness, isn't it the same in Daming?

"I believe that Brother Wan, you will definitely be able to continue to take us to make money."

Wang's surname is a wealthy businessman, Wang Yi said.

"I'll also do it with Brother Wan."

"Me too."

Wealthy businessmen Zhou Xingde and Cheng Jian, who robbed business in Lingnan and did not rob others, still relied on papermaking to make their lives, and finally chose to gamble with Wanshanhou.

"Very well, this will be the best decision you will ever make in your life."

"Five, show up."

A smile tugged at the corner of Wan Shanhou's mouth.

"Mr. Wan, this time, please."

A figure emerges from the shadows like a ghost.

It was Hu Weiyong's retainer who ran out of Jinling City that day to avoid the pursuit of Jinyiwei, Xiao Wu.

"Where, to go to the south, we still have to rely on the five talents, and I hope that the five people can complete the agreement between us."

Wan Shanhou said to Xiao Wu.

"That's nature, and those who don't choose to stand with us won't survive."

Xiao Wu spoke indifferently.

Lancang Kingdom.

"Dad, Yue Guo submitted the credentials of becoming a vassal state to Daming, what should we do?"

Mosentai asked at Faon.

"We don't have a choice."

"We are not qualified to become a subject state of the Ming Dynasty."

"If we accept the conditions of the Ming Dynasty, we will be completely caught in the middle and lose everything."

Faon sighed softly, his weather-beaten face covered with sickly exhaustion.

The territory of the Lancang Kingdom is full of mountains, and on the bright side is the king of Zunfaang.

It was the result of Farang's forcible suppression by force, and in fact, each side had its own hilltops, and it was against Farang's royal orders.

In fact, Faon was just a tribal chieftain with more power and more troops, and had not yet reached the level of a truly centralized monarch.

"However, Yue has become a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, and with the Ming army in charge, once we withdraw from the war with the Occupy State, we may send troops to attack us at any time."

Mosentai spoke.

"This is also something that can't be helped, but it doesn't matter, my Lancang Kingdom doesn't have anything else, but there is no shortage of terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

"As long as the Ming army does not make a move, with the current strength of the Yue Kingdom, it will not have the ability to occupy us."

Faon spoke.

The Lancang Kingdom was the first centralized kingdom in this land, and before that, their existence was just like the Shanyue in Jiangdong back then.

Clans and tribes are in their own way, and even attack each other, and no strong enough force can have an absolute right to speak.

It's just that they are much luckier than Shanyue, who was merged by the Central Plains civilization before Shanyue could give birth to his own country.

And the Lancang Kingdom is far enough away from the hinterland of the Central Plains, and there are no too strong countries around.

Coupled with the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain and barren resources, the surrounding countries are usually not interested in them.

Jinling City.

British Mansion.

"The Lancang Kingdom did not choose to pay tribute to our Ming Dynasty."

"And it's hard to clean up the thieves over there."

"Their army is constantly dispatching, but there is no way to take those thieves in their territory, wind and snow, do you think they will be yang and yin?"

Zhu Biao asked at Xiao Han.

"No, it won't."

"Faon is old, and he doesn't have the courage to do that now."

"But it is precisely because he is old that his control over the country is not as good as it was at the beginning."

"Those thieves, I'm afraid that many of them are supported by the clans in their territory, and Faon doesn't dare to destroy those clans easily."

"Speaking of which, I think they are more difficult to deal with than Yue Guo, Yue Guo is a horse and Pingchuan, I want to play, I can play slowly, and if I don't want to play, I can go directly to the south."

"But this Lancang kingdom is barren and mountainous, and the surrounding countries are not interested in them."

"Faon doesn't dare to offend my Daming, and he didn't agree to the authority of our new Ming tributary treaty, it's like a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard, but if you don't pay attention to them, such a big place is in the middle of the southern countries, and it will be a trouble after all."

Xiao Han shook his head and said.

"So what do we do?"

Zhu Biao asked at Xiao Han.

"Find a way to provoke the strife between the big clan and the royal family within them, first destroy the royal family of Faang, and let them return to the period of clan chaos, and at that time, we will be subdued one by one."

Xiao Han thought for a while and said.

In a place like the Lancang Kingdom, there are mountains everywhere, and the terrain is complex, even if the elite of the Ming Dynasty is difficult to gallop in it.

Therefore, in Xiao Han's eyes, this can be a chaotic place where princes are fighting, but it must not be a unified dynasty.

It will be much easier to smash the Lancang Kingdom from the inside first, and then whether to subdue or annex it.

Fortunately, the Lancang Kingdom originally had great internal contradictions, and it was not too difficult to destroy it from the inside.

"Inform the Jinyi Guards over there, change your strategy, stop chasing those rats, and instead find a way to provoke hatred between the big clans."

Xiao Han said.

"That's all there is to it, but how do you do that?"

Zhu Biao asked at Xiao Han.

"We can try the southern strategy in the Lancang Kingdom, it just so happens that our Ming Dynasty's national strength has recovered, but if we want to come up with goods that can support the large-scale national war in the south, why not make a small profit on this Lancang Kingdom first?"

Xiao Han said to Zhu Biao.

"But... This Lancang Kingdom is not near the sea, and we are afraid that we will not be able to disguise the Mengyuan fleet. ”

Zhu Biao asked the question in his heart.

"It's easy."

"After Meng Yuan was defeated by our Ming Dynasty, he established two kingdoms in the place where he used to be in Pugan."

"Among them, the Ava Kingdom is adjacent to the Lancang Kingdom, and it has also fought against Meng Yuan's army, so it is reasonable to have Meng Yuan's equipment in hand."

"We let our people disguise themselves as merchants on their side to cultivate the pro-Ava clan within Lancang, and sell the Mengyuan equipment we captured, while the other side directly plays the banner of the Yue Kingdom and sells our old equipment of the Ming Dynasty, anyway, the Yue Kingdom is already our vassal country, and it is normal to be able to take out our Ming equipment."

Xiao Han analyzed with a smile.

"Okay, that's great."

"It is estimated that the Ava Kingdom itself will not know how the Lancang Kingdom will suddenly have a clan force close to its side at that time."

"In this case, I will dismantle the people to do it, we have more Mengyuan equipment in stock, and if we sell less grain at that time, it will be a situation where they fight for life and death, and we count the money."

Zhu Biao smiled with his palms.

As he spoke, he walked towards his East Palace.

"Jiang right."

"What's been going on with those merchants lately?"

Xiao Han turned to Jiang You and asked.

"When I go back to His Royal Highness, most of the merchants have not made any moves, only a few have directly mobilized a lot of wealth, as if they are moving their families to the Yue Kingdom."

Jiang You replied to Xiao Han.

"Oh?"

"This is to engage in a papermaking production line, and I am afraid that we will not be able to compete in Daming, so I went to Yueguo?"

"I just don't know, if they knew that Yue Guo was about to be a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and it was also a very high degree of subordination, what would they think?"

Xiao Han had a playful smile on his face.

"Ignore them for now, let them go."

"You also use more strength, and together with Jinyiwei, find a way to clean up the remnants of Hu Weiyong's forces as soon as possible."

"Although those people are already rootless drifters, lost dogs, there is nothing to be afraid of, but flies don't bite people, disgusting people, and my father doesn't want them to be so disgusting all the time."

Xiao Han commanded Jiang You.

"Obey Your Highness's orders."

Jiang You said to Xiao Han.

"Report!"

Before Jiang could go down to make arrangements, a dark guard trotted up and presented a piece of news to Xiao Han with both hands.

Xiao Han was slightly surprised, then took the news casually and began to read it.

"Huh?"

"The remnants of Hu Weiyong's legacy actually did it to those businessmen, and the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, planning to rob some operating funds?"

"It's just that in this way, it's a little too stupid to expose yourself directly to Lonely."

Xiao Han frowned slightly, and vaguely, he felt as if there was something wrong and something important that he had overlooked, but for a while, Xiao Han couldn't say clearly.

"That's it."

"Since these people are killing themselves, Jiang You, let's directly arrange someone to solve them."

Xiao Han shook his head slightly and spoke.

Recently, he wrote the financial chapter of the second half of Daming economics, and Xiao Han also tried his best to write a language that Zhu Biao could understand.

At this time, my brain was a little confused, and I really couldn't think of the key for a while.

But it doesn't matter, now that the enemy has been exposed and the opposite side has been dealt with, then no matter what the conspiracy is, it will no longer be able to carry out.

As long as you kill all the enemies, you will no longer be able to threaten yourself.

"No!"

Jiang You should go down and immediately arrange for someone to go down to do it.

Lingnan.

Panyu City.

"My lord, another rich merchant has been killed, and his wealth has been plundered in large quantities."

A subordinate reported to Liu Xiang.

During this time, because the imperial court successively dealt with the Diao people who resisted the orders of the imperial court and the thieves who made rebellion, for a time, Lingnan was also swept away by chaos and thrived, especially under the big actions of Jiangnan businessmen, it made Lingnan develop faster.
