In the study room, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to immigrate to Annan to enrich Annan, but Liu Bowen was somewhat opposed.
"Sign up, real-immigration immigration is indeed a good way to fill the border, but it is indeed difficult to achieve in Annan."
Liu Bowen looked anxious, trying to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang to give up this idea:
"Because Annan has a special climate, there are rainforests everywhere, the miasma is pervasive, and the local people often get plagues, so the people of Ming Dynasty who immigrated there may not be able to adapt to the climate."
"At that time, perhaps all the people who immigrated to the past will rush to flee back to the Ming Dynasty, and all their hard work will eventually be in vain."
Why was Annan not welcomed by the people of Ming Dynasty? There is only one reason, and that is that the place is warm, hot and humid, which is not at all in line with the living environment of the people in the Central Plains.
What's more important is that miasma is everywhere. If you live there for too long, you will get plague, especially rheumatism, which makes the people miserable.
These are all issues that have to be considered, otherwise even if the people are immigrated, big problems may occur.
Zhu Yuanzhang was already confident. After handing the memorial on the table to Liu Bowen, he said:
"Take a good look at this memorial. The Annan plague has been resolved by Li Jin."
"As for the problem of acclimatization, it can be easily solved. We only need to immigrate people from several neighboring provinces, such as people from Guangxi, Yunnan and other places."
"The environment they originally lived in was similar to Annan. Even if they immigrated there, they wouldn't have much discomfort."
"Besides that, if we bring some refugees and criminals over, they probably won't dislike the living environment. Being able to have a piece of land to farm and pass down the family family is a benefit they can't even imagine in their lifetime."
Hearing that Li Jin could actually solve the problem of the Annan plague, Liu Bowen was extremely shocked and hurriedly opened the memorial and read it.
After reading the memorial, Liu Bowen noticed a small detail and asked:
"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince said that he plans to build Annan into a new food base for the Ming Dynasty. Perhaps this matter should be taken seriously."
"Food base?"
Zhu Yuanzhang dismissed it at all and just sneered:
"Based on that barbaric land of Annan? This is simply nonsense."
"Biao'er has been out for too long and has started to like to talk big. Maybe he also wants to do something to prove to us."
"Don't pay attention to this matter, just let Li go in and take care of it."
"We want to see what Li Jin can do with Annan?"
As for the Japanese island, Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to hand it over to Li Jin. That was because the Japanese island was isolated overseas. If Li Jin really wanted to be independent, Zhu Yuanzhang could only look back and sigh.
But Annan was different. The land of Annan was adjacent to the Ming Dynasty. Even if there were some troubles, Zhu Yuanzhang could respond quickly.
After discussing some details of the imperial edict with Liu Bowen, such as mourning the tragic experience of King Annan, denounced Hu Ji Yao's treason, and awarding Ming soldiers with awards, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Liu Bowen to issue the edict.
After Liu Bowen left, only Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang were left in the palace.
"Mao Xiang, immediately send an elite Jin Yiwei team to lurk in Annan. We want you to keep an eye on Li Jin at all times, including Li Jin's every move. We want to know everything. Do you understand?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was stern. Although he handed Annan over to Li Jin, it did not mean that he was completely relieved of Li Jin.
On the contrary, he wanted to keep an eye on Li Jin more closely. He wanted to pass this test to see what Li Jin was thinking.
Once Li Jin showed any signs of disloyalty, Zhu Yuanzhang would never be soft-hearted and would definitely cut the roots and nip the danger in the bud.
Mao Xiang nodded heavily and said solemnly:
"This time, I will send ten Jinyi Guard teams to blend into the immigration team. I must report all Li Jin's movements to the emperor at all times."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered:
"Using the clipper ship Li Jin built for you, we will establish the fastest intelligence transmission link at sea."
"There are still some women in training, it's time to let them out."
"Li Jin has not married yet. This is the opportunity for these women. Tell them that as long as one person can become Li Jin's wife and concubine, we will absolve their family of all sins and reunite their family."
Zhu Yuanzhang not only trained Jin Yiwei, but also selected many daughters of criminal officials from the Jiaofang Division to train them as female spies. Now he just happened to give it a try on Li Jin.
"According to the order!"
...
Hanoi city.
Li Jin worked non-stop all the way, and it was already half a month before he arrived in Hanoi.
Lan Yu and Zhu Di were already standing outside the city at this moment, lining up to greet them.
Seeing Li Jin and Fu Youde looking tired from work, Lan Yu immediately said:
"Mr. Ying Guo, Mr. Li, you are here. Follow me into the city quickly. I have already set up a banquet in the city and am waiting for you two to arrive."
Lan Yu and Zhu Di's faces were all shiny. It seemed that they had gained a lot in Hanoi City, otherwise they wouldn't be so excited.
Li Jin and Fu Youde were not polite. After settling their soldiers, they followed Lan Yu and Zhu Di to the most luxurious restaurant in the city.
After the food and wine were served, Li Jin and Fu Youde began to feast directly.
"Eat slowly, you guys, slow down!"
Lan Yu was chewing slowly on the side, looking like a landlord, and seemed to despise Li Jin and Fu Youde for being so rude.
Li Jin rolled his eyes, with something still stuffed in his mouth, and said angrily:
"After fighting for a lifetime, can't you enjoy it? Then play music and dance!"
Lan Yu:? ? ?
Zhu Di:? ? ?
Li Jin didn't bother them anymore and continued to devour his food, while Fu Youde on the side scolded them directly:
"Lanyu, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be here?"
"When you were down and out, a bowl of rice tasted better than a dog's food."
"What? Now that you are rich, you start to despise your old brother?"
"a ha ha ha!"
Lan Yu didn't care at all, laughed loudly, and winked at Fu Youde:
"Old Fu, not only am I rich this time, but you are also rich together!!"
"You don't even know that in a few days, you will make a fortune!! Hahahaha!"
At the end of the sentence, Lan Yu thought of something happy again and laughed wildly with pride again.
Seeing Lan Yu's appearance, Fu Youde's curiosity was aroused.
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, he casually wiped his mouth with his hands, placed them directly on Lan Yu's blue embroidered silk satin, and asked eagerly:
"Am I really rich? How much money did you make?"
"How much can I get?"
"Mom, take your hand away, this is the brocade dress I just made!"
Lan Yu was so angry that she opened Fu Youde's greasy right hand and cursed loudly.
Fu Youde didn't take it seriously at all, "It's just a piece of clothing, how much is it worth? I'll compensate you then."
"Compensate? These clothes cost me tens of thousands of taels of silver. Can you afford to pay for it?"
Lan Yu had a look of disgust and looked Fu Youde up and down, her disdain clearly revealed.
"Ten thousand taels? Ten thousand taels to buy a piece of clothing! Why the hell don't you go and grab it?"
Fu Youde jumped up as if he had been stung by a scorpion. He couldn't believe that Lan Yu had spent tens of thousands of taels of silver just to buy a piece of clothing.
It's like we were all good brothers who were miserable, but in the blink of an eye, this good brother suddenly made money and became a rich man. This huge contrast is even more uncomfortable than losing ten thousand taels of silver.
Lan Yu didn't speak, just straightened her clothes in a show-off manner, while Li Jin burped at this time and explained casually:
"The most authentic Su embroidery, coupled with the finest silk. This silk is made of ice silk. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. Ten thousand taels of silver is indeed not expensive."
Fu Youde's eyes widened even more when he heard Li Jin's explanation. This dress was actually worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something was wrong. He looked back at Li Jin and asked stupidly:
"Master Li, how do you know this?"
"Oh, I used to have clothes like this in my wardrobe. There were probably hundreds of them."
"They are all...ordinary...hundreds of them..."
Seeing Li Jin's understatement, Fu Youde was completely dumbfounded. Everyone was rich, but he was the poor one.
The life of a rich man is indeed beyond the imagination of a poor man like him.
"Hahaha, Mr. Li still knows the goods, I just bought five pieces, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!! Haha."
What he said was not worth mentioning, but Lan Yu's mouth was harder to suppress than AK, which made Fu Youde have the urge to beat him up.
Fortunately, Zhu Di's next words calmed his restless heart.
"You don't have to be envious, Mr. Ying Guo. After today, if Mr. Ying Guo wants to buy, he can easily buy dozens, or even hundreds, of them."
Fu Youde's mood was like a roller coaster. When he heard Zhu Di's words, he couldn't believe his ears.
Hundreds of pieces? Doesn't that mean...
Fu Youde's body couldn't help but start to tremble slightly with excitement, and he asked eagerly:
"Does that mean I'm going to be a millionaire?"
There was disbelief in his tone, but it was also mixed with strong expectations.
When he saw Zhu Di nodded affirmatively, Fu Youde felt a rush of blood rushing into his mind, causing his emotions to begin to tumble violently.
That’s one million taels of silver! !
He never dreamed that one day he would become a millionaire.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!"
Fu Youde laughed wildly, even more wildly than Lan Yu laughed.
It wasn't until Fu Youde's laughter subsided that Li Jin calmly said:
"Okay, now that we have eaten and drank enough, let's start discussing the business."
