I, Zhu Qizhen, am not called the Son of Heaven!

"Mama, I want to see the cherry blossoms in my hometown again. "

Hundreds of wakou looked at Daming's sea giant, all of them were like dead ashes, muttering to themselves.

Actually, they did their homework before coming.

They also knew that the navy of the Daming Empire had some firearms that made them fearful.

However, they never imagined that these warships were so huge and these artillery were so terrifying!

Their bows and arrows and katanas could not touch the navy of the Daming Empire at all!

In an instant, their ship was sunk.

Many times, they don't even react.

I have to say that these wakhoots and pirates have rich experience in actual combat, but they are said to be well-informed and brave in battle.

They have seen the artillery of the Westerners and the warships of the empire that never sets.

However, the artillery of the Westerners did not have such power, and the warships of the Sun Never Set Empire were not so huge.

As long as it is hit, it will be blown to ashes on the spot.

This kind of power, in their eyes, is simply a punishment sent by the gods, destroying the heavens and the earth.

This group of bonobos and pirates frantically fled in all directions to the west, but they could not escape the indiscriminate bombardment of the Daming Navy!

"Shoot! You must not let Lao Tzu go, Lao Tzu wants them to come and go!"

Zheng Chenggong drew his sword and shouted in a hissing voice.

Boom! Boom! Boom......

Above the sea, shells rained down!

Moreover, the speed of the Daming Navy warships is far from comparable to these small wooden ships!

There were several warships that were frantically fleeing, which were caught up by the warships of the Daming Empire, and were knocked out more than ten meters away on the spot, and the ships were smashed!

"O Emperor, please let me go back to my hometown, in the future, whoever allows any fool to call me to invade Daming again, I will cut off his entire family." "

Several of the Yokou knelt on wooden boats, praying.

If they are caught up by the warships behind, they will "seven five seven" to commit suicide by cesarean section.

At this moment, all of them were like ashes, and in their hearts, there was only one thought left, regretting that they should not come to the Bohai Sea of the Daming Empire.

Because, the artillery battleships of the Daming Empire are simply invincible!

"Hmph, a bunch of jumping beam clowns!"

On the deck of the Shenlong, Zheng Chenggong snorted coldly with disdain.

He no longer looked at the fleeing bonobos and pirates, but looked up into the distance.

He seemed to have seen such a scene, the Daming navy equipped with Shenwei artillery was conquering the distant ocean, sweeping the enemies on the sea.

Zheng Chenggong showed pride.

He was full of confidence that within a year, he would definitely be able to hand over to the emperor a Daming navy that could conquer the world.

This is the military order he made in the court!

He will definitely be able to finish!

Because, this time, using the Woku small test of the bull knife, the power of the Shenwei artillery was tested, and the power of this artillery really surprised Zheng Chenggong.

The previous artillery, wanting to shell the warship that sank the Wokou with one shot, was simply a fantasy.

And now, it's no longer sunk!

With one shot, these Woku warships, which once gave the Daming Navy Master a headache, can become wood chips and garbage on the sea!

Its power is simply unheard of, unseen!

"The land of the Pill dare to invade my Great Tomorrow Dynasty, and when Lao Tzu prepares it, he will sail to your land and completely incorporate your country into the territory of my Daming Empire. "

Zheng Chenggong's eyes were cold, and he wiped the sword in his hand.

The places where the sword blade goes are all my Daming territory!

"Your Majesty, how should these thirteen thousand be disposed of?"

In the Qianqing Palace, Cao Zhengchun asked the emperor's will.

Thirteen thousand bribed the court ministers with the intention of preventing the emperor from reforming, and if according to the Daming Code, the crimes he committed, a hundred heads would not be enough to cut off.

Cao Zhengchun cherished his talents for His Majesty, and seeing that the ability of thirteen thousand to make money was unmatched in the world, he once interceded with Zhu Qizhen for thirteen thousand.

"Xu gives you a face, since you said that no one can excel in the ability to do business with thirteen thousand, then Xu will give him a chance." "

Zhu Qizhen said: "You take him out of death row, see him, if it is really as you say, this person can be appointed, and I will spare him once." "

"How can the slave He De actually make His Majesty give face. "

Cao Zhengchun immediately knelt on the ground, tears in his eyes, and shouted: "Even if the slave is crushed for His Majesty, it is the glory of the slave." "

After thanking the emperor, Cao Zhengchun did not dare to delay and hurriedly came to the death row of the East Factory.

"I've seen the Overseer. "

The fans of the East Factory saluted one after another, extremely respectful.

Cao Zhengchun was humble in front of the emperor, but in front of others, he seemed to have a different appearance, very majestic.

"What about thirteen thousand?"

Cao Zhengchun asked, "You little rabbit cubs, didn't you make him missing arms and legs?"

He naturally knew very well why the methods of the East Factory Fan Zi could make the people of the world fearful, because these torturers had never been light or heavy.

However, this is exactly the effect that Cao Zhengchun hopes to see.

It is also the East Factory that His Majesty the Emperor hopes for!

"Hehe, Lord Qiyu, the Lord of the Governor has commanded before, these thirteen thousand are still useful, it is not allowed to use the big one against him, the small door just beat him, it's okay, he can hold on." "

Dongchang Fanzi had a sneer.

"Lead the way, Bentou will take a look. "

Cao Zhengchun came to the cell where Wan 300 was held, and saw that Wan 300 was full of leather whip scars, and he smiled.

"Oh, ten thousand big officials, the little ones don't understand things, you, bear more." "

Hearing Cao Zhengchun's yin and yang strange voice, the scarred thirteen thousand was frightened, he raised his head, glanced at Cao Zhengchun, snorted his mouth a few times, and finally did not speak.

In the hands of the East Factory, everyone knows the end, life is better than death.

He was already dead.

He tried to commit suicide several times, but he was stopped by Dongchang Fanzi in time, and Governor Cao did not say anything to let him die, and he could not die.

This is the East Factory!

With a somewhat kind smile on his face, Cao Zhengchun smiled, pinched his fingers, and threw an olive branch to Thirteen Thousand.

"Thirteen thousand, Lord Ben sees that you still have some talent, or else, Lord Ben Governor will give you a way to live, what do you think?"

Thirteen thousand eyes lit up.

"What way to live?"

As long as they can live, no one wants to die.

This world's richest man, waving his hand, is a golden tael, once enjoyed the bliss of the world, more life-saving than ordinary people.

"In this way, you join our East Factory, from now on, you can also make all the officials jealous and respectful, ten thousand officials, what do you think of this Governor's suggestion?"

Cao Zhengchun pointed at the flower.

"Hehe, our East Factory needs talents like you!"

Hearing this, the richest man in the world was directly scared to pee.

A rush of urine rushed out, wetting his crotch, his face suddenly turned pale, his legs kept shaking, and the whole person seemed to be hollowed out at once.

Join East Factory?

Wouldn't that make him a eunuch?

Wan Thirteen Qian couldn't accept it at all, and his spirit was completely broken, and he shouted: "Cao Zhengchun, you kill me, I beg you to do good deeds, kill me." "

Since entering the East Factory, he knew his fate and had already been mentally prepared.

He will definitely be stabbed.

However, he never expected that this knife would not fall on his neck, but on his crotch.

If this knife goes down, he is not a man.

He was afraid of death, but he was not afraid of death compared to being a eunuch.

"Wan Daguanren, what are you excited about?"

Seeing that Wan 3,000 peed his pants, Cao Zhengchun stopped teasing him and explained his intentions: "Seeing that you have some business ability, this governor interceded for you in front of His Majesty and won you a chance. "

"Whether you can live or not depends on your own performance. "

"Prepare, follow Lord Ben into the palace to face the saint. "

As soon as Cao Zhengchun's words fell, Wan Thirteen Qian showed an incredulous expression, he couldn't believe his ears, Cao Zhengchun would actually intercede for him?

"Cao... Lord Cao, what you said is true?"

Wan Thirteen swallowed his spit, and his tone was a little more respectful than usual.

"Is it necessary for this Lord to lie to you?"

Cao Zhengchun asked with a smile.

He is not a bodhisattva heart, interceding for thirteen thousand, just recommending a talent for the emperor.

If the talent he recommended did a good job, he could find silver for His Majesty.

Then, he Cao Zhengchun will definitely be more trusted and favored by the emperor, and perhaps His Majesty will be happy to send him to lead a warship to the Western Ocean, establish an immortal deed, and leave a name in history.

Zheng He, a great eunuch who shines as bright as a star in the history of Daming, is the ideal of life that he Cao Zhengchun has always flaunted.

Under the service of Fanzi of the East Factory, Wan Thirteen bathed and changed clothes, and followed Cao Zhengchun to the Qianqing Palace. (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!)

As soon as he saw the figure of the emperor, Wan Thirteen Qian immediately knelt on the ground.

"Grass people, meet Your Majesty. "

"Flatten. "

Zhu Qizhen said lightly: "Ten thousand thousand, the crime you committed should have been beheaded and shown to the public, but in the sake of Cao Zhengchun's intercession for you, I decided to give you a chance to redeem your merits." "

Hearing this, Wan 3000 was extremely surprised in his heart.

Cao Zhengchun really didn't lie to him, he was saved.

"The grass people thank His Majesty for the grace of not killing. "

Wan Sanqian turned his head and hugged his fist to Cao Zhengchun again, "Thank you Lord Cao for interceding for me." "

Cao Zhengchun nodded and did not speak.

"Thirteen thousand, let me ask you, how was you born, and how much do you have?"

Zhu Qizhen asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, the grass people were born into a poor peasant family, and since the age of fifteen, they have been doing business in the world. Fifteen years ago, the assets of the grass people had exceeded 10 million taels of silver. Five years ago, the assets of the grass people had exceeded 30,000 taels of silver. In the past two decades, business has spread all over the world, and the grass people do not know how many assets they have. "

Speaking of business, Wan 3,000 eyes are shining, and he can't help but show a proud expression.

Listening to the thirteen thousand self-reports, Zhu Qizhen and Cao Zhengchun couldn't help but be slightly moved........

Boy!

This is a veritable rich country!

And truly self-made!

You know, in the eight years of orthodoxy, when Zhu Qizhen had just crossed over, the income of the Daming treasury was only seven or eight million taels of silver.

I heard that thirteen thousand said that his family was worth hundreds of millions and could not be counted.

Zhu Qizhen was slightly curious, why could a commoner go from nothing to a rich country in just twenty years?

This ability to make money is truly shocking.

"Thirteen thousand, what kind of business are you doing, how can you make so much money?"

Hearing the emperor's inquiry, Wan Thirteen Thousand threw up his hands and said, "Your Majesty, as long as it is a profitable business, no matter how big or small, even if it is only a penny of profit, the grass people will do it." "

"However, the majority of the income of the grass people now mainly comes from the four things of silk, tea, ceramics and horses. "

"The difficulty of the Shu road is difficult to go to the green sky, and the grass people transport the Shu Jin to all parts of the country, and the profit can be as little as five times, as much as ten times, or even twenty times. "

"Tea from the south is shipped to the north for sale, and the price of a pound of good tea is more than a hundred times higher than after packaging. "

"Don't hide from Your Majesty, half of the war horses of the imperial court are supplied by grass people, and the horse farms of grass people, in all parts of the country, there are three hundred and sixty. "

"But that's not the most lucrative. "

"Overseas countries are very fond of the silk, tea, and ceramics of my Daming Empire, and the grass people transport these ordinary items of my Daming to other countries, and the price can be increased by a hundred times. "

"The business of the grass people, from the west to the Persian Empire, had business with the future thirty-six countries, and from the south, the countries that once Zheng He passed to the West, their silk, tea, and ceramics were all supplied by the grass people. "

"The grass people trade with these countries every year quite with their treasury revenues. "

Thirteen thousand slowly came.

His words were indeed like thunder on the ground, which made Zhu Qizhen and Wan 3000 secretly frightened.

Daming's war horses, actually half of them are supplied by thirteen thousand?

This information cannot be described as not exploding!

Moreover, Zhu Qizhen also knew that it was probably far more than that.

If Zhu Qizhen is not mistaken, it should be the war horses, weapons, money and grain of the ten major military regions of the Daming Empire, all of which are more than half of the thirteen thousand businesses.

Therefore, if the Iron Courage God Marquis wants to win the throne, his primary goal is to obtain the support of thirteen thousand.

It is said that these are all in his treasure chest!

Therefore, the arrogant and invincible Iron Gall God Marquis will treat this businessman with courtesy, otherwise, when has he ever seen the faces of others?

What is even more terrifying is that the countries of the Western Regions and the countries of the South Seas, the economic lifelines of these countries, can basically be said to be completely controlled by thirteen thousand!

His business dealings with these countries turned out to be equal to the treasury of their entire country every year!

Zhu Qizhen finally understood.

Why did he formulate a commercial tax and collect 10% of the tax in every business transaction, Wan Sanren would desperately block it.

He even did not hesitate to buy off the officials of the imperial court and secretly disrupt the court.

Because his business is too big 4.2!

There are so many business taxes to pay!

Zhu Qizhen clearly remembers that this spring, the commercial tax revenue in one quarter was as high as more than 24 million taels of silver, which was three times the revenue of the state treasury in the whole year of last year.

Of these, I am afraid that nearly half of the silver was taken out of the 13,000 pockets.

That's why he jumped off the wall, took a desperate step to bribe the rumor official, blocked Zhu Qizhen's reform, and strongly demanded the abolition of the commercial tax.

"Thirteen thousand, you can't escape the blame for your sin, but Xu can give you a chance to live. "

Zhu Qizhen said, "However, you have to let Xu see if you are really talented." "

After speaking, Zhu Qizhen touched his chin and thought for a moment.

"In this way, Xu will give you one million taels of silver, and after a year, you will bring 10,000 taels back to Xuan." If you can do it, I will forgive you once, if you can't, then what you just said is false, and I will add another crime of cheating to you. "

"The grass people obey the order, and the grass people will definitely not live up to the emperor's grace of sparing his life. "

Wan Sanqian is very clear that his life and death are all between the emperor's words.

Now hearing that the emperor forgave him, and he didn't have to get a knife under his crotch, and then thought of the torture he was tortured in the East Factory before, all kinds of emotions were intertwined, and his eyes couldn't help but blush.

Immediately knelt on the ground and promised to come down with a full mouth.

Anyway, he was the one who walked through the ghost gate... Oh no, it should be said that it is the person who walked through the East Factory.

Because the East Factory is a ghost gate, entering is hell, ten deaths and no life, everyone understands.

It is not a miracle that he came out alive.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Qizhen said again: "Thirteen thousand, don't agree too early, there are two additional conditions for Xuan." "

"The grass people listen to the hadith. "

Thirteen thousand immediately clenched their fists.
