There are thousands of things, many affairs, and although there are many seized property, every item is gone. www.biquge.info The cost of the three armies is not much, and it can be ignored, but the cost of relocating the whole army of the housewarming guard is very large, and the two commanders of Shen Zheng have given 200,000 taels to each of them, which is at their disposal, nominally it is a settling-in fee for the families of the guards, but in fact most of them are hush money for the two commanders to cooperate with the transfer of civilian households! The arsenal and the shipyard are each set aside for 200,000 taels, and the city is divided into 100,000 taels for the construction and renovation of the north and south treasure cities, and it is also necessary to buy ships and use them for military expenses.

Many of the small boats in the army, like those purchased by the sailors in Nanjing, did not have the ability to sail far, and they did not drive for a few days, and all of them had to be retired this time. Fifteen armed merchant ships were of good quality, one guard was divided into three; two of the Hongmaoyi warships captured by Ding Yi were taken away by Yun Zhongfei and four were left for him; all the artillery pieces were left in the shipyard to be loaded on new ships; and 1,800 flintlock muskets were issued to Ding, which was not bad.

With regard to the captives, Commander Shen said that in order to proclaim the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, all the beheads were cut off in Nanbaogang to build a Jingguan as an example; Commander Zheng said that it was better to let Hongmaoyi buy them all and use them for military purposes; when he attacked the port just now, Commander Zheng captured many Hongmaoyi merchants, and some of the merchants offered to redeem them, and the price was not low; according to Commander Zheng's statement, there were more than 5,000 Hongmaoyi captives before and after, and the ransom would not be less than one million taels;

Ding Yi is the most capable general and descendant of Yun Zhongfei, he attaches great importance to Ding Yi's opinion, and especially consults Ding Yi. Ding Yi smiled: "Dugong, I mean that people make the best use of their talents, make the best use of things, these Hongmaoyi people of all colors, etc., can travel thousands of miles must have their strengths, let's screen first, the craftsmen who can build guns and ships will let them do these things for us and take apprentices, can write will be counted as special elders and let them do what they are good at, those who have the ability to play good guns to teach our people to fire, those who understand the route to help us lead the way, literate let them translate Hongmaoyi books, understand them, know that they can win a hundred battles, and use all that can be used." These red-haired people killed our people, they can't be spared, and they don't want to buy them, let them do a lifetime of atonement for their sins on the treasure island, 'dedicate their youth to their whole lives, and dedicate their lives to their children and grandchildren', and their children and grandchildren will always serve my Ming Dynasty! As for the useless, nothing-for-nothing and die-hard elements, of course, they are sent to Beijing to sacrifice prisoners, and after the sacrifice ceremony, the Ming Dynasty will be punished as an example. "If a nation wants to develop, it must first learn from the strengths of all families, Ding Yi thinks that these red hairy Yi are catfish, which can stimulate the technological progress of the Ming Dynasty, of course, it cannot be easily released and killed.

Commander Shen shouted: "This method is good, it is stronger than killing Zhujing Guan, the guns and ships of the Yi people do have their own uniqueness, let these guys build guns and guns for us, good, I think it's good!" Commander Zheng smiled and said: "I have dedicated my youth to my life, and I have dedicated my life to my children and grandchildren, I like this sentence, Dugong, I think the method proposed by Commander Ding!"

Yun Zhongfei said with a smile: "Okay, then do it according to Xiao Ding, the personnel screening will be done later when Wenfu Yin arrives, and I will personally arrange the matter of returning to Beijing to offer prisoners." By the way, there are many young and strong men in the army, and I think there are many red-haired women, who can be used as camp prostitutes to comfort the hearts of the army! Generals at all levels can choose those with good colors to retain!"

Ding Yifang, you eunuch still cares about the next three roads, it seems that you are really attentive to the sailors of the South China Sea, but the western crew brought bayberry sores is very tricky, and even an emperor in the Qing Dynasty died of this sore, so he said: " If someone has sores and pus, they must be rejected by God, this kind of person does not have to stay longer, it is good to kill, and the same is true for the red-haired women, and they have to find a few experienced bustards from the mainland to discipline them!"

Yun Zhongfei said with a smile: "Xiao Ding, you are too young, you don't care about these, about the Hongmaoyi woman, Commander Zheng is responsible for the selection, and about the physical examination, you must also be serious, you can do it according to Xiao Ding's wishes!"

Ding Yi said again: "Duke, the court household department only manages more than 10,000 people with money and food, it is really not enough, there are a few suggestions for the lowly position to open source, the Dugong grasps it, see if we can do it!"

Yun Zhongfei was about to announce the end of the meeting, and he heard that there was an open source method, and hurriedly said: "Let's hear it, if there are good ideas and good ideas, of course we will do it!"

Ding Yiyi: "First, our South China Sea Sailor controls the middle of the waterway between the Ming Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom, why don't you run the trade routes between the Wa State and North Korea by yourself, and you can earn at least one million taels of silver on one trip, can you see it?"

Yun Zhongfei nodded and said: "Yes, very good! Our family remembers that your Yue's family said a while ago that they would do maritime trade, then you are responsible for this matter, and the sailor will take out twenty or thirty ships to specialize in maritime trade, and our family will allocate 500,000 taels of silver to you as the capital, I don't care how much you earn every year, at least two million taels of silver will be handed over to me, can you do it?" Yun Zhongfei didn't understand sea trade, but he heard that the sea was profitable, so he directly handed over the task to Ding Yi, and if he made two million dollars, Yun Zhongfei felt that he could give it to Ding Yi.

Ding Daxi, this route is equivalent to let Ding Yi and Tian family bag, although the country and North Korea are not very rich, but two million taels a year is really a small meaning, not to mention the special goods, just the exchange difference between gold and silver is very profitable, the exchange ratio of gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty is about 1:5.5, the exchange ratio of the country is about 1:12.5, if the gold from the Ming Dynasty to the country of the country is exchanged for gold and silver, and then back to the Ming Dynasty for gold, the profit is more than doubled, and this precious metal is very heavy, just as ballast, it does not occupy any cargo space, if there are really twenty or thirty ships, you can earn two million taels in one trip, you have to run four or five times a year, but then again, the exchange of a large number of precious metals must have deep roots on both sides, and these relationships must be opened, and ordinary businessmen have no ability to do this.

Ding Yi responded that there was no problem, and continued: "Second, my Daming City Ship Division is useless, during the Hongwu period, Taizu pity the ocean merchants are not easy, exempt from maritime taxes, Taizu instructed 'Far Yi trekking thousands of miles to come, temporarily seeking profit from goods, it is difficult to talk with merchants, listen to their transactions, do not levy their taxes'; Now the people of Yi have come from afar, but they have invaded their profits, and they have gained a lot of money, and the losses are generally many'. Up to now, I heard that the annual income of the Guangzhou City Shipping Division is only 50,000 taels of silver, which is really ridiculous, as far as the humble officials know, the officials and maritime merchants of the Guangzhou City Shipping Division are so rich that the property of the maritime merchants exceeds one million taels, and the imperial court does not collect this tax, and it is useless for the country to give away these due incomes, and we must not let it go. It is suggested that all those who are ocean-going maritime merchants in the waters of our Daming Dynasty, whether they are merchants of this dynasty or foreigners, should be evaluated at the price of each ship, and take 10 percent of the labor costs, which is really not much.

Yun Zhongfei was silent for a while after listening, and asked Shen Zheng and the two commanders: "The maritime merchant fruit is rich as Xiao Ding said, is Xiao Ding's strategy feasible?"

Shen Zheng and the two almost said in unison: "Maritime merchants are indeed extremely rich. Commander Shen added: "The two of us often deal with maritime merchants, and these maritime merchants are not easy to deal with, and they have dealings with officials of all sizes in the DPRK and China, both black and white, and their hands and eyes are all over the sky, and it is easy to extract the fee, but I am afraid that I will be attacked by the DPRK and China afterwards, and this matter is not very easy to do!"
