"You..."
After listening to Zhu Cixiang's suggestion, Chongzhen almost shouted, "You're a traitor", but he swallowed it back with great difficulty, but his face still turned pale, and he snorted and said: "Your Majesty, where do I have it?" Tens of thousands of taels of silver?"
How could it not be? Zhu Cihong thought to himself: Mother has told me that you originally had 500,000 taels of pension money, but the fifth child cheated you of 250,000 taels, and then you wrote letters to the third and fourth children every now and then to complain about your poverty, and you still follow the old man all the time. Six Nags, the three of them had no choice but to contribute 70,000 to 80,000 yuan each to you. Your losses have almost been recouped!
However, Zhu Cixiang would not expose Chongzhen to his face. Now that Zhu Yihai and Yao Daqiao were both here, he still had to take into account his image as a filial son.
Zhu Cixi nodded and said: "Since my father has no money, then don't let Lao Qi go to the New World. Lao Qi's mother and concubine died early, no one loves him, and he probably doesn't have much savings, so let's let Ninth Brother Cixu go... ....He is Concubine Hu’s son, and he is worthy of the tens of thousands taels.”
Concubine Hu was the favorite concubine of Emperor Chongzhen. She spent at least 20% of Chongzhen's gold and silver. Moreover, many of the good things Chongzhen received every year during his birthday and New Year's celebrations also went to Concubine Hu. . So Concubine Hu’s son must be rich... If he wants to make a fortune in the New World, he can’t do it without tens of thousands of taels of start-up capital.
"What about Lao Jiu's county prince, farm and palace?" Chongzhen loved Lao Jiu very much and immediately fought for his son's rights.
Zhu Cixiang smiled and nodded: "Give it, of course I have to give it...except for the title of the county king, I will give Lao Jiu a discount for everything else, let's give it fifty thousand taels of silver!
In addition, I will give Lao Jiu another good marriage. "
Chongzhen asked: "Can we also find a father-in-law from a Japanese martial arts family for Lao Jiu?"
"That's not necessary," Emperor Zhu shook his head, "Lao Wu has already done the killing and killing work. Lao Ninth has to help Lao Wu run the business, so he has to choose his concubine from the family of a big businessman and a big farmer."
Zhu Cixiang made this arrangement firstly to help Zhu Cihuan run the vassal state, and secondly to balance the Japanese power in the vassal state. Therefore, we can no longer allow Zhu Cixuan to marry into a Japanese samurai family. We must find him an in-law like Yao Daqiao.
"Yao Daqiao!" As he spoke, Zhu Cixiang named Yao Daqiao again.
"I'm here." Yao Daqiao was excited. He had a daughter. Although she was younger, she could make the Ninth Prince wait!
"Is there any place where a good port can be opened on the territory of the prince of Chongqing?" Zhu Cixiang asked.
He was asking questions knowingly. Of course he knew that Zhu Cihuan had occupied Los Angeles and Long Beach!
"Yes," Yao Daqiao was a little disappointed, but still answered truthfully, "There is more than one place where a port can be built over there. There is a bay near Angel Castle where a port can be built."
He was talking about the Port of Los Angeles.
"Just give this land to the Nine Kings!" Zhu Cixiang smiled, "If all the land of 250 miles is used for reclamation, there won't be much profit. If we can build a port and open a market, there will be a lot of profit!"
What oil and water can there be? Yao Daqiao said in his heart.
Of course he had no idea that there would soon be a gold rush over there in California! "Los Angeles" will definitely be developed by then, so now we have to let that kid Zhu Cixuan occupy the territory so that it can develop later.
As for Zhu Cixuan's princess, let Grand Duke Luo choose among the real estate businessmen in Shanghai!
After making up his mind, Zhu Cixiang thought of giving Zhu Cihuan a good name for his vassal state, so he asked Chongzhen: "The fifth brother is now the king of Chongqing, and the name of Chongqing already has a place, so I want to invite my father." The emperor bestows another auspicious name on my fifth brother's vassal state."
"Given a name?" Chongzhen thought for a while, "Then change one word...remove the heavy word Chongqing. Isn't the territory occupied by Lao Wu part of the California state? Then use California If you add another word, let’s call it Jiaqing Kingdom!”
Jiaqing... Jiaqing? What a great name!
"Okay, let's call it Jiaqing Kingdom!" Zhu Cixiang nodded, "Let's call it a county kingdom!"
Now the vassals of the Ming Dynasty also have different levels, and the highest level is of course the United States! Followed by kingdoms, Japan, Korea, Annam, Siam, and Jungar are all kingdoms. The third one is the county kingdom. Chahar, Tumote, Chenla, and Laos are all county kingdoms. The next lower level is the principality, Phuket (original Ryukyu), Pattani (original Sulu), Boni, and Jeju are all principalities.
The newly released Jiaqing Kingdom is a county kingdom, which is equivalent to Zhu Cihuan's title.
Emperor Zhu glanced at Lu Wang Zhu Yihai again. This man was grinning! It seems that they are thinking about crowdfunding to open a vassal state...
"King Lu!" Zhu Cixiang called him, "You just told me that you want to formulate a charter to establish a vassal and a country to restrain the king? Why don't you tell the emperor now? The emperor has many sons, except for me and In addition to King Dai, King Luok Kun, King Fu, and King Jiaqing, they must all be waiting to open a vassal and establish a country! A county kingdom may not be established, but there should still be several principalities... A county king can make up I can’t count, but I can put together a few or a dozen!”
What? Want to come again?
Chongzhen's heart felt a little cold - he was just thinking about how to ask Concubine Hu for money, and the filial son began to think about his other sons again!
Chongzhen said in his heart: I, as the Supreme Emperor, should not only be responsible for planting seeds. No matter how my sons are arranged, they should be troublesome for the rebellious son! Why does it fall on me again now?
More than a hundred sons! If we were to follow the example of King Jiaqing who took out a sum of money from Chongzhen to found the country and open a vassal state, Chongzhen would have to spend all his money!
"Your Majesty, I just thought of this," Zhu Yihai said with a smile, "I just thought of a few things. One is that it is not Zhu Buwang, and that there was no such thing in the first place, but it was opened with the money and efforts of the clan and ministers of the Ming Dynasty. In a country, the person who can be crowned king must be the descendant of Taizu Emperor Gao, and the others can at most be granted the title of duke."
"This is good!" Zhu Cixi nodded.
It's a monopoly! Of course...
"The second is to ask for a title. Anyone who asks for a title must do the same as King Jiaqing and dedicate a number of viscount territories to His Majesty for His Majesty to reward people."
"It makes sense!" Zhu Cixiang said to Chongzhen with a smile, "Father, this is a good idea... Who wants us to have more families? If we get more territories and titles from the vassal country, we can arrange some overseas adventures. Not only can it reduce domestic pressure, but it can also diversify investment.”
What does diversification mean? Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a while after hearing this. Of course he would not have thought that Zhu Cixiang was worried about the revolutionary tide!
If it can spread all over the world, the Zhu family dynasty can survive for a long time!
Zhu Yihai added: "The third is to allow feudal states to be invited to the unowned land."
"What is the unclaimed land?" Chongzhen asked.
Zhu Yihai said: "Your Majesty, the so-called unclaimed land refers to land that has not been included in the Ming Dynasty's mainland or vassal territory, nor does it belong to any foreign country."
"Is there such a land in the world?"
"There are quite a few of them!" Zhu Yihai said with a smile, "The world is so big, and some of it is vast and sparsely populated or even uninhabited land. Even if these lands are fertile and rich, it is not easy to develop, and a lot of money needs to be invested in the early stage... ....It’s not enough to just rely on the court to invest money, you have to let everyone invest together.”
"What King Lu said is right," Zhu Cixi said with a smile, "The imperial court has limited financial resources and limited energy, so it can't control so much! If the kings, clans, nobles and others are willing to go out and explore, why can't I allow it? Back then, our ancestors of the Ming Dynasty retreated. When abandoning land, you should ask if there is anyone among the clan nobles who is willing to manage the land that the court cannot control... If there are clan nobles who want to manage the land of Nuer Gandusi, why? As for the rise of Jianzhou?"
Chongzhen laughed and thought: How can our ancestors be as open-minded as you? It was too late to impose a vassal ban. King Ning and King Liao, who were originally on the outside, had to move inland. How could they be allowed out? But if we really want to let people go out, Jianzhou will not be able to get up by then, and someone may want to make trouble again!
Zhu Cixiang breathed out and said with a smile: "It's better that our ancestors didn't do this...otherwise the good territory in the world would have been taken away long ago, where would we still have our share? Father and King Lu, although in this world It’s big, but it’s not infinite after all! There aren’t many good places, so you have to occupy them quickly! If it’s too late, there won’t be any!”
