Chapter 627 How about I give you my daughter

Li Chaosheng saw that the group of guys under him were so excited, he looked at them with a smile and said, "Oh, there are gifts, so let's take them out and see what good things they are?"

Hearing this, Li Chaolong got up first and said: "I have prepared a set of military books for my eldest nephew, and I hope my eldest nephew can become a man of gentleness and martial arts in the future."

Li Chaolong took out his gift as he spoke, a set of military books, the content is very mixed, from Sun Tzu's Art of War to Ji Xiao's new book to the army drill manual that Lantian is using now, all of them are in hardcover, and it is hard to see .

But Li Chaosheng said with a dark face: "Cousin thinks my newborn son can understand this?"

Li Chaolong smiled and said: "Your majesty, don't choose. I originally wanted to give some money, but was severely criticized by my father. I thought about it and thought about it for a few nights before I thought of this gift. I left it to the elders." Let's see when my nephew grows up, hehe..."

Li Chaolong was like this, and Li Chaosheng had no choice but to look aside. At this time, Guo Bao also took out a stack of books and said: "The county honor I gave to my nephew is the most famous masterpiece from ancient times to the present, such as this Analects. However, I have an advantage over Li Chaolong’s, I’ve annotated them, and I’m sure children will have a deeper understanding after reading them.”

Li Chaosheng said with a dark face when he heard the words: "Guo Bao, Guo Bao, my cousin is giving gifts and also new books, good guy, you just give old books, right?"

Guo Bao laughed when he heard the words, "I put my heart into it."

Li Chaosheng said: "Just take it, I will use your books to wipe my ass when I run out of paper in the toilet."

Guo Bao didn't care at all when he heard the words: "Okay, give it to the county lord, it has nothing to do with me, what the county lord is willing to do."

"Hey, what are you giving, look at me."

As Li Chaomeng said, he pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist and slapped it on the table: "Master, I gave this dagger to my nephew. It's a good knife. It's sharp, not to mention cutting iron like mud. It’s also extraordinary, I gave it to my eldest nephew, I hope my eldest nephew will not waste his martial arts, and when he grows up, it’s also beautiful to compete with my uncle, haha..."

Li Chaosheng said with a dark face when he heard the words: "You idiot, your eldest nephew can't even walk, you play with a knife for him, you bastards, do you have any good gifts, don't give them away if you don't, I listen get angry."

Hearing Li Chaosheng's words, Yang Shubai stood up and said, "You guys, that's not real, county lord, I'll give you a gift, and I promise you and your sister-in-law will be happy after hearing it."

"Oh." Li Chaosheng looked at Yang Shubai, very curious. At this time, Yang Shubai smiled and said: "Xianzun, my daughter Yang Yingying is three years old this year, and it's time to make a baby kiss, so I thought, or I'll just marry me." Give the daughter to the young master of the county as his daughter-in-law, so that the county and his sister-in-law will have to worry about the child's marriage in the future, right, hahaha..."

Hearing this, Guo Bao couldn't help but stand up and said, "Well, you Yang Shubai, I didn't expect that you, who have thick eyebrows and big eyes, didn't follow your good intentions, and you actually took my eldest nephew's idea, your girl is older than you. My nephew is three years older, it's not suitable."

"Guo Bao, don't talk nonsense, why is it inappropriate, a female junior holding a golden brick."

"Just don't be sloppy, Xian Zun, I gave the wrong gift just now, the gift I gave was actually my daughter, my daughter is only one year old, there is no generation gap with our nephew, she is a match made in heaven, Xian Zun, I suggest that our family should take advantage of today to make a baby kiss, and when I go back, I will ask my family to send my daughter's birthday."

Hearing this, Li Chaosheng didn't say anything, but he saw Bai Shoumin, who had a child behind him, who was also a little eager to try, and a few officials from Lantian, who seemed to be sharks who smelled blood, eagerly wanted to Marry his daughter to Li Chaosheng's son.

After all, anyone with a normal mind knows that this young master will be the heir of Lantian in the future. If Li Chaosheng becomes the emperor in the future, then this young master will be the future heir to the throne. If the future emperor, his daughter marries him, that is the future The queen of the country, she is the future head of the country, it is very exciting to think about it, so everyone stared at Li Dezhao at this moment, as if looking at a rare treasure, and almost salivated.

Seeing this group of bird people wanting to get something for nothing, Li Chao threw the wine glass over angrily, and cursed: "Go away, my son is only a month old, and you bastards have already made up their minds, so shameless!" , I really want to kick you to death."

Seeing that Li Chaosheng was so furious, several people could only look at each other reluctantly and sit down. Guo Bao didn't give up and said: "Xianzun, you really don't think about it. Our family is sincere. If The county lord promised that our family can make another concession, and we allow the young master to marry another flat wife."

"roll."

"Two are fine."

"roll!"

"Three, up to three, you can't let your eldest niece suffer too much, can you..."

"Come and drag this guy away, drag him away."

Li Chaosheng roared angrily, followed by Shi Xiaolei and Shi Dalei dragging Guo Bao away with a sneer on their faces, and the whole scene suddenly burst into laughter. In fact, everyone knew that this was a joke between Guo Bao and Li Chaosheng.

After a while, Guo Bao slipped in from the outside with a smile on his face, Li Chaosheng ignored him, looked at the crowd and said, "Let me tell you, your shameful behavior of giving gifts in the open, but actually targeting our son will be restrained by me. Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, let me tell you, my son's marriage will be decided by himself and no one can interfere, understand? You bastards!"

Li Chaosheng yelled at Guo Bao and others. Seeing this scene, King Qin and Princess Qin were terrified. At this time, the old princess pulled the clothes of her daughter, Princess Changyu, and said, "Quickly persuade your husband, these They are all ministers of Lantian, how can a monarch treat meritorious ministers like this, this is the way to bring chaos."

Seeing that the old concubine was so nervous, Princess Changyu smiled and said: "Mother, don't worry, the relationship between my husband and these important ministers of Lantian is very special, it is a true brotherhood, and there are many jokes like this on weekdays. It'll be fine."

"Yes, my concubine, the relationship between my husband and them is not like that of an ordinary monarch, but more like a brother. A joke of this level is harmless."

Song Sanniang also said at the side, the old princess was very surprised when she saw her, but she didn't say much when she saw her daughter's usual appearance, maybe she was in such a state, and she made a fuss.

The old concubine thought about it, and saw that the crowd returned to their smiling faces again. Even Guo Bao, who was framed out just now, did not look displeased at all, but continued to drink with people with a smile, and his nature seemed to be higher than before. up.

Li Chaosheng looked at the crowd and said, "Is there anyone who gave gifts? No, I'm going to withdraw."

After hearing this, Gu Zi stood up and said, "Xianzun, I have some gifts here, I think you will be interested."

"Oh, tell me."

After hearing this, Gu Zi said: "Xianzun, the first gift came from southern Fujian. I think you also know that after Zheng Zhilong's death, our business in southern Fujian has developed very smoothly. Recently, our first batch of goods has followed Zheng Zhibao's order." The fleet went to Fusang for sale, and achieved very good sales results, and this is the first shipment, our second and third shipments are ready and can go to Japan at any time."

"Oh, this is a good thing. The Zheng family has always controlled the sea trade with Japan. It is a good signal to let Lantian factory cooperate with the sea trade work in southern Fujian and strive to win the Fusang market. , In addition, the trade in Fusang should be settled in silver, Fusang has many silver mines, we are short of silver in Ming Dynasty, and the silver in Fusang can solve our silver shortage problem."

"Yes, we have written it down, and we will notify the Ministry of Commerce and the brothers who are engaged in maritime trade in southern Fujian later."

"Well, very good. We must pay attention to maritime trade. Future opportunities will not be on land, but on the ocean. The wealth of the ocean is several times that of the land. Only by seizing the wealth of the ocean can the development of Lantian enter the fast lane. .”

"Yes."

Many important officials in Lantian nodded to show their understanding, Gu Zi smiled and said, "How about the congratulatory gift from the county lord?"

Li Chaosheng nodded slightly: "Not bad."

Gu Zi said: "What's more, this is a congratulatory gift from Li Chaoshui."

Li Chaoshui?
As soon as they heard the name, everyone knew that this person was Li Chaosheng's relative, and it was said that he was sent to Nanyang to become a pirate, so they didn't know what happened.

At this time, I heard Guzi read: "Master Xian, I have been away for several years. I don't know if I am in good health. I heard that I have a nephew recently. I am very happy, so I specially prepared 3 taels of gold and [-] boxes of jewelry. There are also more than [-] catties of Nanyang specialty spices sent to Lantian, and ships have been dispatched to escort them, and they will land soon, please ask the county lord to do a good job of escorting them."

"In addition, among the many jewels, there are two rubies the size of eggs. They are treasures. I gave them to the two sister-in-laws to meet each other. The county lord is not going to rush into the treasury. In addition, sister-in-law is welcome to come to Nanyang to play. Here, it is like spring all the year round. , rich in resources, gold, silver and jewelry are special products, but unfortunately, the locals are so lazy that they don’t even know how to farm, and can only rely on the sky for food, wasting resources. I tried it, and it can be planted here three times a year, and a small island can produce grain a year, which is comparable to the output of several counties.

"Finally, I wish my eldest nephew safe and healthy, Nanyang, Li Chaoshui."

After Gu Zi finished reading the letter, everyone fell into deep thought. Li Chaosheng laughed and said, "Look at Ah Shui, he is indeed my good brother. He sold 3 taels of gold, dozens of boxes of jewelry, and [-] catties of various spices." , Look at you, those who give books give books, and those who are shameless give away old books, and those who are shameless not only don't give gifts, but also play tricks on me, you guys, please be careful."

Hearing Li Chaosheng's rebuke, Guo Bao laughed and said: "Master Xian, those of us who stay in the center can't compare to the nourishment of the outside, we are all poor and clanging, how can I give you 3 taels of gold? Why don't you see if you can squeeze me out, if you can, I'm willing to dedicate myself to the county magistrate."

"Fuck off."

Li Chaosheng's face was dark, and he said to Guzi, "Li Chaoshui must arrange these things properly, and don't make any mistakes on the way. The money came in a timely manner. With this money, the plan for the next year will be much richer." gone."

Gu Zi heard the words and said: "Don't worry, the county lord, it has been arranged. We are now in a cooperative relationship with the pirates in Bamin. They will not block us at sea. When we arrive on land, with the strength of our armed caravan, even if Li Zicheng wants to make a move. He also broke his two front teeth."

"Ah That's good."

Li Chaosheng was talking, and Song Sanniang who was beside him asked curiously: "Husband, brother Chaoshui just said that the islands in Nanyang are suitable for growing food, and also said that the local people don't grow food, what do they eat if they don't grow food?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng said: "The Nanyang area is indeed suitable for growing grain. As for the islanders you mentioned, the climate there is unique. Even if the people on the island don't work, they can just eat the natural products of the island. .”

"Ah, there is such a place where you can eat without working. Isn't that heaven?"

Hearing this, Li Chaosheng laughed and said: "You can eat without working, and it may not be heaven. Li Chaoshui's description of Nanyang in this way is because he wants us to put more energy in Nanyang. There is nothing wrong with it. Nanyang is indeed a treasure land of geomantic o , but now is not the time, the domestic situation in Ming Dynasty has changed dramatically, we can't throw our limited military power in Lantian to Nanyang, and compete with those savages for the island, but we should first resolve the conflicts in Ming Dynasty, and then use the power of the whole country to attack Nanyang. Win the battle, and place this place within our Han territory."

Song Sanniang nodded and said, "I understand, besides, Li Lang, is there really a gem the size of an egg?"

Li Chaosheng laughed and said, "You'll know when you send it back."

Li Chaosheng was talking, and Guo Bao said at this time: "The county lord, if it is really what Li Chaoshui said, I think we should develop our influence in the direction of Guangdong. First, we should make a three-year plan. After three years, we can Immigrants to the Nanyang Islands one after another, if the county officials want to incorporate the Nanyang Islands into our Han territory, the most important thing is not to expel the savages on the islands, but to make the number of Han people on the islands more than the savages, so that The island belongs to the Han people, and no one can take it away.”

Li Chaosheng nodded and said: "Well, it makes sense. This matter is handed over to your political department. If you need military assistance, you can ask Shi Dalei for help. His army has been resting in Lantian for long enough."

Shi Dalei laughed and said: "Okay, I'm willing to do this, just because I'm about to go out of business, hahaha..."

Shi Dalei was very excited, Guo Bao said: "Leave this matter to me, and our political department will send a plan to the county magistrate later."

Li Chaosheng nodded, then looked at Gu Zi and said, "Very good, I am very satisfied with this gift, is there any more?"
