Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 212 Negotiation
Emperor Qianwu has been paying attention to Li Changfeng's movements, otherwise he would not have sent the Imperial Forest Army to respond in advance, and he even knew about Li Changfeng's attack.

Knowing that Li Changfeng went straight to the palace, Emperor Qianwu waited in the imperial study.

It didn't take long to see Li Changfeng walking in with a happy face.

"Father, my son is back!"

Emperor Ganwu smiled: "It's good to be back."

Li Changfeng cupped his hands casually, sat across from him with a carefree smile, and said with a smile: "This time, I really made a lot of money. Those foreign people are simply big fat sheep!"

Emperor Ganwu didn't focus on this matter, and asked one after another: "How are those sweet potatoes? They haven't been frozen, have they? Haven't they been flooded by sea water? Will it affect next year's spring sowing?"

Li Changfeng gave Emperor Ganwu a reassuring look: "Father, just put your heart in your stomach, the sweet potatoes are well preserved, and the spring sowing will not be delayed."

Emperor Ganwu was completely relieved, and said with a smile: "Okay, that's really great, winter is still long, you must keep the sweet potatoes well."

"Father, are you still worried about my son's affairs?" Li Changfeng said helplessly.

"Stinky boy, do you think I'm long-winded?" Emperor Qianwu laughed and cursed, and then he cared about the profit of this transaction: "Is it a lot of money?"

"Haha, isn't that right?" Li Changfeng laughed loudly, "Those foreign people are simply big fat sheep. The profit from one transaction is comparable to that of Erchen who has been doing other businesses for half a year. This is still the case that they only have one cargo ship. If You earn more with more cargo ships."

"Compared to your other businesses for half a year?" Emperor Ganwu was a little surprised, no one knew more about how much money Li Changfeng's property made than him, a shareholder.

"Isn't it?" Li Changfeng smiled, and said proudly: "This transaction will be handed over to the Ministry of Households for at least 5 taels of tax silver. Father, you can say whether you are happy or not?"

Emperor Ganwu said calmly, "What's so happy about this little money?"

But the smile on his face, which he couldn't hide no matter what, showed that his heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

These foreign people are only here for the first time, and other cargo ships on the road have also been damaged, so there is still a lot of room for improvement in the transaction volume.

When they come next time, they will earn more money for Dagan.

Li Changfeng didn't go home after returning to Beijing, and he came to see Emperor Qianwu immediately with his tired body, and there was a purpose.

He chuckled, and continued: "This is just a trade with the caravans of the Germanic Empire. Father, think about it, if we do business with all foreign countries, will we still be short of money?"

Emperor Qianwu couldn't help yearning, nodded and said: "Indeed, if there are dozens of countries like this doing business with me, it won't be long before I do so and I won't be short of money."

Li Changfeng strikes while the iron is hot: "That's right, Father, so it's time to cancel the sea ban policy. This policy has seriously affected foreign trade."

Emperor Ganwu's smile slowly subsided: "How can this kind of national policy be canceled just by canceling it?"

When the critical moment came, Li Changfeng no longer had a playful smile on his face, and said with a serious expression, "Dare to ask Father, why is the sea banned?"

Emperor Qianwu didn't even need to think about it, he replied directly: "First, it is to resist bandits who wantonly plunder the coastal areas; second, it is to prevent domestic resistance forces from bypassing the land and entering the deep area along the coastline. This national policy has begun.”

"Okay, father, let's talk about the first point. Has the sea ban really successfully resisted the bandits? They dare not go ashore, but our fishermen dare not go fishing, or even live too close to the coastline. , What is the difference between this and no resistance? That is our coastline!"

Li Changfeng's words were sonorous and forceful, with a little anger and unwillingness.

Emperor Qianwu was touched.

The current situation of Daqian is like a coward who is blocked at the door and dare not go out. It is indeed a bit aggrieved to let the enemy show off at the door.

Seeing this, Li Changfeng irritated again: "This time when we went to the South China Sea, the Japanese pirates took advantage of the night to plunder our cargo ship. You must know that our army is stationed on the shore. You said they took me seriously ?"

Emperor Qianwu's face became gloomy at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Li Changfeng continued to stimulate: "If we abandon the sea ban policy and develop the navy, and encourage ocean trade to bring benefits and convenience to other countries, these pirates will inevitably become street rats and everyone will beat them up. How long can they survive?"

Emperor Qianwu fell into deep thought.

He felt that Li Changfeng's words made sense, but he had other concerns.

Li Changfeng continued: "Let's talk about the second point, the domestic resistance forces, such as the Fengtian Society and the Eight Great Families are indeed a problem..."

Having said this, Li Changfeng's voice suddenly increased a lot.

"But! We will have more and more artillery, and more and more muskets. It is not a problem to equip thousands of people. With grenades, with my current strength, do I need to be afraid of them?"

Hearing this, Emperor Qianwu's eyes lit up.

Artillery, guns, and grenades have not been used in large-scale actual combat. Because of the influence of his thinking, Emperor Qianwu has been looking at this issue from a traditional strategic perspective.

Now, with Li Changfeng's little tweaking, his dead-end thinking suddenly became clear.

Yes!

He now has big killers such as artillery, muskets and grenades, so what else does he need to be afraid of?
Whoever dares to take the lead will be killed!

It is a good thing to kill these rebel forces early!
Knowing that Emperor Qianwu had figured it out, Li Changfeng added another fire: "Father, your sword is not old yet, and the elite who followed you in the north and south are also here. Can't you make a mess for your successor?"

Emperor Ganwu showed a smile on his face: "Stinky boy, you even started to teach me."

"Father, just tell me if what my son said makes sense."

"You're right." Emperor Ganwu nodded, he was a talented and bold emperor, and he said decisively: "I will announce to the world to lift the ban on the sea soon."

Li Changfeng was overjoyed: "That's great, by the way, Father, I have one more matter to discuss with you."

Emperor Qianwu said deeply, "Do you want to build a ship?"

Li Changfeng has a large number of masters he sent by his side. Li Changfeng asked the people in the scientific research institute to learn the shipbuilding skills of the Fanbang people, and sent people to find suitable docks on the coastline where large ships can dock.

He knows all these things.

Coupled with the fact that this foreign trade has made a lot of money, he guessed what Li Changfeng was thinking.

Li Changfeng didn't hide anything, nodded and said: "That's right, my son wants to build a big wharf and a big shipyard to build the strongest warships in the world. If anyone dares to hinder my foreign trade, I will fight it!" who!"
