The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty

When he woke up the next day, it was in the middle of the night. Li Yuanqing took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. It was only three o'clock in the morning.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

These days, the intensity of life is a little too high, that is, the iron body. If it goes on like this for a long time, I'm afraid it will be broken down.

Body is the capital of life.

Finally, after a lot of hard work, Changsheng island is now in such a situation. Li Yuanqing does not dare to neglect his body.

After simply cleaning up and changing a pair of light leather boots, Li Yuanqing informed the family members on duty outside the door, and began to run around in the yard outside.

According to the scientific demonstration of later generations, regular work and rest and life style are the best means to ensure health.

Unfortunately, according to Li Yuanqing's state at this time, the work intensity is really too big, he can only maintain a certain degree of work and rest, strengthen exercise more to maintain physical condition.

In the final analysis, there are too few talents available at hand!

This makes, there are too many things, Li Yuanqing must personally do!

However, with the gradual enrichment of financial resources, the situation in southern Liaoning is further stable, and the Nanyang side is on the track. Li Yuanqing's choice will become more and more open!

After running for about two hours, Li Yuanqing stopped, did some stretching exercises, moved his joints, and began to do some simple strength exercises.

Sport is a profound science.

In later generations, people began to pay more and more attention to it.

The key point is "step by step!"

To some extent, this is actually the core of life values! In everything, it's hard to eat a big fat man.

All outbreaks require years of deep accumulation.

By this time, Li Yuanqing had already mastered everything.

It's almost over. It's already light.

Back in the room, I took a comfortable hot bath and had a good breakfast. The sky was bright and everything was back to normal.

Guan Canghai and Xu Heizi also came to report the latest situation to Li Yuanqing.

The situation is much smoother than expected. After a busy day yesterday, nearly 11 million taels of gift money have already been put in place and can be shipped at any time.

According to the forecast, the remaining silver will be made up by this evening at the latest, and the affairs of the Pan Pacific Trading Company will be basically finished by tomorrow evening at the latest.

In this way, only the open-air occasion is left. Li Yuanqing goes through the scene, and the fleet can return.

Li Yuanqing looked at Guan Canghai and Xu Heizi and said, "don't worry about these affairs, but try to be more patient. As for shipment. Let's start this evening. "

"Yes

Guan Canghai and Xu Heizi respectfully should go out to work.

Li Yuanqing came to the VIP room in the backyard, where his wives and concubines lived.

It was more than eight o'clock. Zhang Baozhu and they were all up. They were spreading around the rainforest not far from the backyard, talking and laughing.

To tell you the truth, Brunei's environment is more beautiful than the so-called Garden City in later generations.

Rainforest, sea and beach complement each other. They are absolutely treasures given to human beings by God.

However, restricted by the pace of the development of science and technology and civilization, at this time, the big mosquito, the unknown mosquito, is full of primitive wild jungle, and the changeable weather without any warning makes people feel not so down-to-earth here.

Fortunately, Li Yuanqing will leave plenty of silver for Guan Canghai. In recent years, he will not give them too much pressure. In the next three to five years, it is one of the important tasks for Guan Canghai to focus on the construction of Brunei port as a local construction.

Seeing Li Yuanqing coming, Zhang Baozhu's women are surrounded by YingYing and Yanyan.

Li Yuanqing's mood suddenly became clear, and said with a smile, "how about it? How many days are you getting used to it

Zhang Baozhu said with a smile: "OK. It's you. It's you who are so grown up that people worry. Yuan Qing, are you healthy? "

Li Yuanqing smiles: "it's OK. You don't have to worry. By the way, in recent days, we will leave Brunei and return to Daming. Baozhu, Yinger, Waner, and you all think about it carefully. What do you want to buy and bring? In the afternoon, when the sun is down, let Niu Gensheng take you to the Pier Street. "

All the women were overjoyed and cheered.

Since ancient times, women's nature of shopping has not changed at all!

Zhang Baozhu, however, took Li Yuanqing's arm and came to the open space next door. "Yuanqing, don't you have a rest today?"

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "there are still many follow-up affairs to be dealt with. It will be good if we finish these days. When we get back to the ship, we can have a rest for a few days."

Zhang Baozhu nodded his head cleverly, but he was also a little distressed by Li Yuanqing's hard work. "Yuanqing, you must take good care of yourself, don't be like a child again."Looking at Zhang Baozhu's pretty face, Li Yuanqing couldn't help but feel some heat in his eyes and said in a low voice, "Baozhu, accompany me to sit in the room for a while?"

How can Zhang Baozhu not understand his mind? Heart sweet, but gently spat: "you go to Waner, Yinger they."

Li Yuanqing smiles and kisses Zhang Baozhu's pretty face, "don't worry. I'll take care of it. "

…………

After leaving the bay where the Pan Pacific Trading Company was stationed, Li Yuanqing returned directly to the dock and summoned Ben Coster.

In these days, Ben Coster has been lured by Li Yuanqing with a lot of money. In these days, he has already obtained information about hundreds of people for Li Yuanqing, and even more has enticed more than 100 people to come to Brunei.

On the one hand, Li Yuanqing's trip to Nanyang is to open up business routes and make money. On the one hand, it is the second and third point to see the overall level of the world today. However, it is also very important to attract talents from all over the world.

To some extent, the industrial technology of Daming is not too backward. For example, porcelain and silk are basically the world's leading level without dispute.

However, in terms of military affairs, especially in steel smelting and precision machinery manufacturing, Daming is far behind the rest of the world.

Li Yuanqing let Ben - caust focus on the search for talent, one is blacksmith, the other is watchmaker!

As long as Ben Coster finds this kind of talent, the return will be quite generous.

In the temporary office, Ben Coster reported to Li Yuanqing with a smile: "distinguished general, after the efforts of this period of time, it has been basically determined that at least 60 blacksmiths and 35 watchmakers are willing to work for you in the future Daming. It's just that... "

Ben Coster looked at Li Yuanqing with some embarrassment.

Li Yuanqing waved his hand with a smile, indicating that he would go on.

Ben Coster hastily said: "noble generals, they, many of them, hope to get a part of the salary first, not too much, half will be OK."

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "this is human nature, and I can accept it. However, they have to sign labor contracts for more than ten years! What's more, if I find out that some of them are straw bags. If they want to mix fish eyes with pearls, they must pay more than ten times to compensate for my loss! "

Li Yuanqing also has a deep experience in dealing with these white haired monkeys.

Want to earn money from Laozi? sure! Then you can show your true ability!

If you want to make up the number, then ~ ~, don't blame him for his ruthlessness and black hands!

Ben Coster also knows that Li Yuanqing's conditions are indeed a little harsh, but he can't bear to pay well!

As the saying goes, "under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man!"

For a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "my dear general, I will do my best to complete this matter."

"Go! Ben, my brother, do a good job. I won't treat you badly

Li Yuanqing slapped Ben Coster on the shoulder with a smile and sent him out of the door.

Just about to enter the rest for a while, Joseph rushed over again. Before that, he followed Yang boat's fleet to Malacca, and had not talked with Li Yuanqing for some days.

"Hehe. Dear general, the Pan Pacific Trading Company has won the first victory! What a brilliant idea the general has

Li Yuanqing laughs and throws Joseph a cigar. He comes here and helps Li Yuanqing light it first. Then he dares to light his own.

Li Yuanqing said with a faint smile: "Joseph, how is it going? Do you have any information from the Portuguese? "

Joseph said with a smile: "general, things are almost under control. By the time I go back to Europe, things should be ready in the middle of the year or at the end of the year. "

Li Yuanqing nodded, but fell into slow thinking.

For a moment, he said with a smile, "Joseph, my brother, frankly speaking, I suddenly find that it is a bit of a waste to put you in the position of governor of Macao! I want to hear what you think

Joseph a Leng, a moment also reaction, also some surprise way: "general, humble position is your brick, where need where move!"

Li Yuanqing looked at Joseph with a smile, "you boy, don't talk to me. I hope you can be the first vice president of the Pan Pacific Trading Company

"Ah?"

Joseph was stunned. For a moment, he could not help but be overjoyed!

The essence of Pan Pacific Trading Company, no one is clearer than him!

This, this is the Daming East India Company!

What's more, Li Yuanqing, a strong and hard line real power general, has won so much support and voice in Nanyang. He also knows that once things are on the right track, Pan Pacific Trading Company will compete with East India Company, or even surpass East India Company. It is not a dream at all!

Compared with this, just a governor of Macao, that is really not enough to see!"Honorable general, your most loyal servant Joseph, sincerely serve you Joseph was not stupid. He knelt down respectfully.

Li Yuanqing smile: "Joseph, you are not busy to thank me. Now, I have another important thing for you to do! "

…………

After seeing off Joseph, Li Yuanqing went to the bedroom upstairs and focused his eyes on the huge map of the world on one side.

Although the map is somewhat simple, there is no Arctic and Antarctica, the rest of the map is almost the same as that of later generations.

Of course, this is due to Li Yuanqing's own modification.

At this time, in Hong Kong Island, Shantou, Shanghai, and antongwei (later Shandong Rizhao), several key nodes were marked with carbon ink.

To establish a complete and smooth route from Changsheng island to Nanyang, supply points and official ports are indispensable.

However, although the general situation has been fully grasped, Li Yuanqing is not too "bold" in the presence of the Zheng family, and he has to leave some room for the Zheng family.

Therefore, on the route, he did not involve the core interests of the Zheng family.

But all of this depends on whether the Zheng family will be appreciated or not!
