"Yes, it's a voyage to the West!"
Fang Xing dipped his drink in the wine and drew a simple map of Nanyang on the table. He pointed at Java and said, "There are many gold and silver mines here and the products are rich. However, Java was destroyed by His Highness last time. It should be in a state of melee now." , as long as we go to some troops, it will become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, a territory inherited from ancient times."
Zhu Yong¡¯s eyes lit up and he asked: ¡°Is there really a gold and silver mine?¡±
¡°If it¡¯s fake, it will be replaced!¡±
Fang Xing said: "Last time I saw the local natives exchanging gold nuggets for things. I asked about them and they said they are available in Java and Sumatra."
"Tsk!"
Zhang Fu said with a toothache: "There is a native king in Sumatra! The late emperor also gave him a gold seal for canonization."
Zhu Yong said dissatisfied: "Brother Wenbi, how come I heard that the king is dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty?"
Meng Ying nodded and said: "Exactly, their old king, that fisherman, was killed, and the murderer stole the throne. Isn't this the rule of rebellious ministers and traitors? Ming Dynasty should uphold justice."
Xue Lu smiled bitterly and said: "Xue has nothing to say, just do it if you can."
"Can you persuade His Majesty?"
Xue Lu felt that this was not very reliable: "The Ming Dynasty now uses treasure banknotes, and gold and silver are not that important."
Zhu Yong frowned and said: "But treasure banknotes are just waste paper, gold and silver are treasures that have been used for thousands of years!"
Fang Xing lost no time and added: "There are rich products over there, and the Ming Dynasty is indispensable for spices."
Thinking of spices, Zhang Fu smiled bitterly and said: "His Majesty rewarded a lot of pepper a while ago, and there is a lot of it at home."
"Can the common people afford it?"
Fang Xing provoked, and Zhu Yong's eyes immediately turned red.
"Mad! If we can occupy those places, the spices will be ours. Take the big head from Chao Zhong, and let's take the small head from the main office!"
This is interest, an interest that Fang Xing hates deeply.
But only benefits can drive people to serve. If there were no benefits, Zhu Yong would just say a few words, but he would still continue to be decadent afterwards.
And Zhu Gaochi also needs benefits, so
"Xia Yuanji can tell you that after all, the more gold and silver there are, the more stable the treasure will be."
As soon as Fang Xing finished speaking, he felt that he was trapped in a cocoon. Sure enough, the eyes of the other four people were immediately fixed on him.
Zhang Fu said with a smile: "Dehua, you and Xia Yuanji have a good relationship, go and talk about it."
"Yes, let's go to His Majesty to make some insinuations. You go to Mr. Xia to get straight to the point. If he helps, he will be more certain about this matter."
¡¡
When the new emperor ascended the throne, Xia Yuanji had a lot of things to do. In addition, after returning from the Northern Expedition, the grain and grass needed to be re-accounted and returned to the treasury. For a time, everyone in the household department was scolded by him and ran away.
"It's not even a worry!"
Xia Yuanji looked at the form in his hand and was worried, when a voice came from outside the door.
"I said, Mr. Xia, are you going to take the first prize?"
Fang Xingxing pointed at the charts hanging on the wall and smiled.
Xia Yuanji was in a bad mood. When he saw him joking, he was about to start complaining, but he saw Fang Xing holding an oil paper bag in his hand.
"what?"
¡°Roast chicken.¡±
Fang Xing placed the oil paper bag on the table, but placed a booklet on top of it.
Xia Yuanji picked up the oil paper bag and saw oil stains on the booklet, so he asked: "Don't say you came to give gifts because of your conscience. Tell me, what do you want to do with me?"
"Is there enough gold and silver in the Ministry of Finance?"
Fang Xing asked, raising his eyebrows.
"What do you mean by that? Tell me clearly!"
Xia Yuanji asked warily. He knew Fang Xing very well and knew his style of not going to the Three Treasures Hall for anything.
After Fang Xing sat down, he picked up a table and looked at it. It was the statistics of depreciation of the issuance of treasure banknotes.
"Master Xia, without the support of gold and silver, this treasure banknote cannot be stable, right?"
??
The so-called suppression refers to when a large-scale run occurs or the depreciation of treasure banknotes is abnormal, gold and silver must be used as a deposit or even to increase the value of treasure banknotes.
"Then do you want to get more gold and silver?"
Xia Yuanji is considered to be in the prime of life, and Zhu Gaochi was very positive about him after he ascended the throne. In other words,?He must continue to hold the position of steward of the Ming Dynasty.
"But it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. There is no shortage of food in the Ming Dynasty, but the household department is short of gold and silver.
"Tell me, where is it?"
Last time, Fang Xing sent people to find the large copper mine in Jiaozhi, and later discovered the copper mine in North Korea. His character is trustworthy.
¡°They are found in places like Java and Sumatra, and there are quite a lot of them.¡±
Tsk! Xia Yuanji looked at Fang Xing, shook his head and said, "I knew you were here for no good. You want me to lobby His Majesty to reopen the fleet. Hey! You can go ahead."
Fang Xing was not in a hurry. He said with a smile: "The natives over there only need to take care of the food. Mr. Xia, when the time comes, it will be smelted on the spot, transported by big ship, and finally sent to Peking via the canal. It won't cost much, right?"
Xia Yuanji said expressionlessly: "Let's go, let's go, I still have many things to do."
Fang Xing stood up and said, "If you miss this matter, it will be gone!"
"Why not?"
"Those crew members have all been dismissed. In a few years, they probably won't be able to sail a ship anymore."
Fang Xing waved his hand and walked away gracefully, but he gave Xia Yuanji a big problem.
Xia Yuanji no longer had the intention to deal with those account books. He was so restless that the subordinates who came to report the matter looked at each other.
"Is Master Shangshu in trouble?"
"They are inseparable from each other, and Xinghe Bo has just left, so it is probably the trouble caused by him, the god of plague."
Not long after, Xia Yuanji left the household department in a hurry.
¡¡
Zhu Gaochi respected the important ministers very much. When Xia Yuanji asked to see him, he put aside the matter at hand and summoned them immediately.
Xia Yuanji was a technical official. Zhu Gaochi was used to his style and asked directly about his purpose.
"Your Majesty, the treasure ship"
Xia Yuanji knew that this matter was somewhat difficult, but his desire for gold and silver made him reveal his purpose.
"Once the treasure ship stops, it will cost a lot of money!"
Zhu Gaochi¡¯s smile faded and he asked, ¡°Why do you ask this?¡±
Xia Yuanji knew that he couldn't hide it from Zhu Gaochi, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Xinghe said that there is gold and silver over there, a lot of it. I am always a little worried about the treasures. It would be better if there was more gold and silver."
Zhu Gaochi asked casually: "How many are there?"
Xia Yuanji said: "Your Majesty, think about the copper mines in Jiaozhi and North Korea."
Zhu Gaochi took a breath of cold air, "That's a big mine!"
Xia Yuanji said with concern: "Your Majesty, Uncle Xinghe never makes false promises on state affairs. I think it should be true."
Zhu Gaochi immediately said with a straight face: "But why didn't he tell him when he came back? And Zhanji."
Xia Yuanji regretted that he actually brought the flames of war to Zhu Zhanji's head, and hurriedly said: "Xing Hebo said that only gold nuggets were found at that time. I probably asked about it later from the Sumatra envoy."
Big gold mine, big silver mine!
Zhu Gaochi knew the role of gold and silver well, so he was in trouble.
After pondering for a long time, Zhu Gaochi said: "You go back, let me think about this." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
