In the modern world, Li Yunze narrowed his eyes as he turned the beautifully crafted globe.

Although the area of ​​Europa is not large, the area occupied by Europa people actually covers most of the world.

However, the space occupied by Asians is only a small area.

The Europeans acted recklessly and brought endless suffering to Asia.

Even now, he is still showing off his power and being domineering.

There are still many places that are willing to be other people's lackeys. They really think they can leave Asia and join Europe, but in fact they are just being dogs.

There is nothing he can do in this world, but in the parallel world, he must change the situation.

In the world of the Ming Dynasty, the only reason why Zhu Gaoxu was allowed to cross the sea to America was this.

Limited by transportation capacity, Li Yunze was unable to fully control Nuoda Continent, which was thousands of miles away.

In this case, instead of losing it to the Europeans, it is better to let our own people take it.

Even if Zhu Gaoxu really wants to rebel in the future, it doesn't matter, they are all his own people anyway.

However, it is not easy for Zhu Gaoxu to successfully arrive in America.

The Ming Dynasty's treasure ships were actually not suitable for ultra-long-distance voyages. Zheng He had to stop all the way.

To cross thousands of miles of ocean, you must have a professional ship.

He came back this time to buy several second-hand large sailboats.

It's not that we can't afford a big steel ship, it's just that no one knows how to drive one.

"gentlemen."

Butler Tony knocked on the door and came in, "Your guests have arrived."

"Invite them in."

Putting down the globe, Li Yunze stood up and walked to the living room to greet several senior executives of the shipping company.

After some pleasantries, both parties took their seats.

Li Yunze is not alone here, but also has heavily hired lawyers and professional negotiators.

The key to being a good person is to know yourself, and he is very measured about how much he weighs.

Professional negotiations like this are best left to professionals.

Although there is no shortage of money, the money is the hard-earned money of the people of Ming Dynasty and cannot be thrown away casually.

There was nothing to talk about during the negotiation process. Li Yunze sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and drank tea leisurely.

Then I watched the professionals chewing words and deducting data one by one. It was like fighting for every dollar.

Professionals are professionals. After all, bonuses are settled based on the final price. The lower the negotiated price, the more they earn.

In this case, of course, we have to fight to the end.

The negotiation lasted the whole afternoon, and Li Yunze also drank a lot of tea.

During this period, Paoyu sent him a message and invited him to go to the spa together.

Fortunately, Li Yunze always puts work first, so he sternly refused.

Large sailing ships in the modern world are mainly used for sightseeing and tourism, and there are only a few of them.

After all, no one would rely on this kind of sailboat to do transportation business, and they would really lose their lives.

Li Yunze also purchased a total of six large wooden sailing ships of 1,000 tons in the name of a tourism company.

"Mr. Li."

After the contract was signed, everyone was going to have a meal in the hotel restaurant to celebrate. The negotiator here said with regret, "The price is still a bit expensive. The price of second-hand ones has almost caught up with the price of brand-new ones. After all, the supply is too small. Why don't you Order new ships directly from the shipyard?”

That's because the time is too long and I can't wait.

"I like feelings." Li Yunze said nonsense, "I have to order new ships, and I have to trouble you with the negotiations."

"Please rest assured." The negotiator was full of confidence. "There are too few orders for large wooden sailboats these days. If you place a big order in one go, it will inevitably cause the shipyards to rush for it. The price is definitely easy to negotiate."

Of course six ships are not enough, Li Yunze needs more.

Not only to carry out transportation across the ocean, but also to supplement Zheng He's fleet.

When those Europeans were preparing to enter the age of navigation in small boats, they would probably be scared to death when they saw Li Yunze's invincible fleet.

After picking up Paoyu, a group of people went to the high-end restaurant of the hotel to exchange cups and drinks. It was very lively.

After eating and drinking, we went back to our respective homes. Paoyu helped Li Yunze sober up, and it was so tiring that he couldn't help but thicken the soup.

The six sailboats were maintained in the most meticulous manner in the shipyard. The barnacles on the bottoms of the boats were all scraped clean and painted.

The rope sails were all replaced with new ones and the structure was strengthened.

All the equipment that shouldn't be there were cleared away, and even the inscriptions were removed.

No one cares about why there is such a request. People pay you to do things. Where do you get so many reasons?

After that, the ships were sent to the Xiangjiang side, and then it was time for Li Yunze to perform a magic trick and take them away one by one.

If a large cargo ship goes missing, it will definitely attract the attention of many people.

But no one would pay special attention to this kind of sightseeing boat under the name of a travel company, even if they didn't tell anyone about it.

Li Yunze took the ships to the Ming Dynasty one by one. After that, he only needed to find a suitable time to report the unfortunate sinking of the ships.

After all, none of the registered crew members existed, and no insurance had been purchased from the insurance company. It was easy to deal with it however you wanted.

On the side of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Gaoxu also gathered all the people who were willing to follow him.

He even sold his palace, and gradually gathered on Tianjin Wei's side with his family members, relatives and even loyal subordinates, as well as immigrants recruited with a heavy sum of money and the promise of 500 acres of starting land. .

There were a lot of people, tens of thousands of them.

"Second uncle. These navigation medicines were left by Zheng He. You can take them with you for use on the road."

"These are the old sailors from Zheng He's fleet who were left behind on purpose. You have to trust them as much as possible."

"I have given you the sea chart. Follow this route. First, replenish supplies and drinking water on the islands along the way, and then go all the way to the end."

"There should be many local indigenous tribes over there. These armors, weapons, and gunpowder ordnance are used to conquer the world."

"The local people may have migrated there in ancient times. I hope my second uncle can accommodate them and bring them under his command."

"As soon as the fleet arrives, let them come back. Subsequent immigrants, craftsmen, and various supplies are all being prepared for you to send over."

After all the explanations were over, Li Yunze held Zhu Gaoxu's hand with a sincere expression, "I wish my second uncle great success from now on and build a great empire."

Rather than hand over America to those Europeans, Li Yunze preferred to leave it to his own people.

It doesn't matter even if Zhu Gaoxu doesn't recognize his ancestors at that time, they are of the same origin and species anyway.

"Big nephew."

Zhu Gaoxu, who never imagined how Li Yunze would harm him, showed a rare moment of sincerity: "I won't be verbose about anything else. Don't forget my share when worshiping ancestors during festivals."

The Chinese people have a very strong sense of country, even if they are ambitious enough to go thousands of miles away to expand territory and build a huge empire.

But my hometown, my ancestors and my ancestors would never dare to forget it.

Zhu Gaojiu, who was also very generous in character, took a few steps away and came to Zhu Gaosui's side.

The two picked up the wine bowls, touched them, and drank them all in one gulp. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz

"Second brother..." Zhu Gaosui was obviously a little excited.

"Third brother, don't ask for your mother-in-law's money." Zhu Gaoxu suppressed his emotions and waved his hand vigorously, "You should hurry up and ask your eldest nephew to find a place for you to go out and have fun. It's better than staying in the house and waiting to die. You can't do that. It’s only when I’m lying on the hospital bed that I regret that I haven’t done anything significant in my life!”

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and smashed the wine bowls on the ground.

He suddenly turned around and walked towards the side of the ship, raised his hand and waved with his back, "Let's go!"

"Second uncle is free and easy and heroic!"

Li Yunze gave a thumbs up, showing genuine admiration.

Zhu Gaoxu is definitely better than 99% of the princes in the Ming Dynasty!

"Second brother!"

Seeing the large ship slowly leaving the port, Zhu Gaosui, who couldn't control his emotions, choked up and chased after her, running all the way along the trestle.

The two brothers have played together since they were young, and when they grew up, they accompanied Zhu Di on his expeditions to the north and south together.

Now Zhu Gaoxu has to go thousands of miles away to pursue his dream of becoming an emperor. This departure is basically like saying goodbye forever.

Zhu Gaoxu on the deck was also waving, obviously emotional.

This scene is really sensational enough, enough to make people cry. Compared with some programs... ahem, forget it.

With six thousand-ton sailboats as the core and a fleet of nearly fifty large ships, they left their homeland in a mighty manner and headed straight for the distant shore of the ocean.

Their voyage will completely rewrite the future history of this world!

From now on, this world will be an Asian world!

On the way back to the capital, Zhu Gaosui's mood was obviously low.

The old man is gone, the boss is gone, and now the second brother has gone to pursue his dream.

All this had a huge impact on Zhu Gaosui.

Before finally entering the city, he finally found Li Yunze, who had been waiting for a long time.

"Eldest nephew." Zhu Gaosui's eyes were firm, "I want to leave too."

Li Yunze was not surprised at all, and was even waiting for him to take the initiative.

"The old man and the eldest brother are gone, and the second brother has gone thousands of miles away." Zhu Gaosui laughed self-deprecatingly, "I can't really live in drunken dreams all day long, and then regret that I have never done anything in my life when I die of old age. Boom, big deal."

"Third uncle." Li Yunze chuckled, "Don't you want to stay with your nephew?"

Zhu Gaosui looked at him strangely, and the two looked at each other for a moment before laughing loudly.

"Eldest nephew, you are a man of real ability. The old man saw you right." Zhu Gaosui said with some emotion, "I am not like the second brother who wants to create an eternal legacy. I just want to make a splash and come back for burial when I die. "

In fact, Zhu Gaoxu also thinks this way. No matter how far he goes, he must return to his roots.

But after a few generations, it is expected that things will gradually change.

"Third uncle." Li Yunze had already made plans and arrangements for Zhu Gaosui. "Zheng He's health is getting worse and worse. It is estimated that it will be difficult for him to go on his eighth voyage to the West."

As soon as he said this, Zhu Gaosui immediately reacted, "You want me to go to that place with a tower?"

"That's right."

Li Yunze nodded and nodded, "My nephew wants to invite his third uncle to Zhenxihai!"
