"That makes sense."
"But will Ming Dynasty suffer too much loss?"
Zhu Biao asked Xiao Han.
"Do you think I'm the kind of person who would accept a large loss?"
"Or do you think it's easy for me, Xiao Han, to take advantage of me?"
"Don't worry, they may feel they are taking advantage, but we, Ming Dynasty, will never lose."
"And in the future, they will have to spit out the money they should give us, including the interest."
Xiao Han said with a smile.
"I believe this. After all, you are the biggest profiteer in our Ming Dynasty, no, you are an industrialist."
Zhu Biao clapped his hands and said.
"Should I say it or not, you still have the ability to learn and sell now."
Xiao Han nodded and affirmed Zhu Biao.
With Xiao Han's personal order, although Hu Yan's side violated military law, if the decision was made in the most efficient way, of course it would be to behead directly in public, but with the top leader speaking, the direct descendants of the Hu family in the team still had a look on their faces. He was escorted towards Yingtian Mansion in confusion.
"It's over! It's over! It's all over!"
"Originally, nothing happened to us if we obeyed the orders well, but now not only are we going to die, but we are also being sent to Yingtian Mansion for trial."
"I heard that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Ming Dynasty was cruel and cruel, and he easily harmed the nine clans. I am afraid that my Hu family will cease to exist from now on."
Hu Bin, dressed in ragged clothes, wailed in the prison car.
"Shut up!"
Hu Yan, who was also embarrassed, gave a cold shout.
Although Hu Yan's heart felt cold, Hu Yan always felt that something was wrong.
If we just want to execute him, is it necessary to go all the way to Yingtian Mansion?
Could it be that it was to use the Hu family to intimidate the Yue clan?
However, if the Hu family might have had this weight in the past, now their Hu family's caravan has been reduced to the point of being drafted. Even if they are all killed, the people of the Li family will not feel how powerful the Ming Dynasty is, right?
"Brother!"
"Do you still think that the Ming Dynasty spent so much effort to liberate our brothers to Yingtian Mansion just to show kindness and let the Hu family go?"
Hu Bin opened his mouth and continued to cry.
"I said, shut up!"
"If you don't want to accept all the torture from Ming Dynasty, then be more honest with me."
Hu Yan snorted coldly.
Regardless of whether it has vitality or not, it is unwise to discuss the Ming Dynasty here.
Maybe the two brothers won't survive, but what if they can save the rest of the Hu family.
If he directly offends Ming Dynasty by speaking without restraint, he will really implicate the nine tribes and there will be no place to cry.
Hu Yan didn't want this silly boy to continue howling and bring the Hu family's outcome to the worst possible outcome.
"What are you two whispering about?"
"Are you dissatisfied with Daming?"
"I'm telling you, disobeying orders in battle will lead to death. If it weren't for the fact that you are businessmen, so there is no need for a special trial in the palace, if it were us Ming soldiers, they would be beheaded on the spot!"
On the side, the Ming soldiers responsible for escorting the two Hu brothers heard what was happening here and gave a cold shout.
"snort!"
Hu Bin snorted and met the murderous eyes of the Ming warriors, but did not dare to speak any more.
Hu Yan, on the other hand, simply remained silent.
He quarreled with the Ming Dynasty soldiers responsible for escorting him, and got nothing if he was whipped.
When a scholar meets a soldier, there is no reason to explain.
Even if you are reasonable, it will be useless among soldiers who only believe in fist military orders.
What's more, the two Hu brothers didn't pay attention. They disobeyed the military order, and they took the initiative to retreat and let Wan Shanhou go.
Hu Yan could not argue with this point.
The governor was really dissatisfied with the response speed. Less than half an hour after they retreated, they encountered a large force led by the governor.
If Hu Yan had dared to take action and hold Wan Shanhou back for more than half an hour, everything would have been rewritten.
It's a pity that there are no ifs, but Hu Yan has no regrets. After all, if more than a hundred people fight against three thousand people, even if they get support in the end, under the opponent's attack, the two commanders may not be able to do anything. Survived.
Of these more than a hundred people, a few may survive in the end, but definitely not both of them.
After all, everyone understands the principle of capturing the king first before capturing the thief.
If Empress Wan Shan wants to leave, she must either kill all the people or kill them with all her strength.
Those cannons and arrows were all under fire, and Hu Yan himself couldn't figure out how to survive.
and Lincheng.
"King Qi, has our recent trade exchange with Zhu Ming been going smoothly?"
In the study, Emperor Xuanguang asked Wang Baobao.
"With your Majesty Hong Fu, our Dayuan trade will be smooth."
Wang Baobao said to Emperor Xuanguang.
"My dear, don't try to coax me with nice words. I already know about the mutual trade. Mingshang has launched activities such as buy one get one free and some discounts."
"Many tribes in my Yuan Dynasty violated the imperial ban and over-purchased. Does Aiqing call this everything is fine?"
Emperor Xuanguang looked at Wang Baobao.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"We think they are just greedy people. As long as I, the Yuan Dynasty, use elites to suppress them, I will not dare to make too many mistakes, so I have not told His Majesty in detail."
Wang Baobao knelt on the ground and saluted Emperor Xuanguang.
"I don't mean to blame Aiqing, but isn't it possible that Aiqing doesn't want to tell me about this?"
"Ai Qing, tell me, how do you want to solve these things?"
Emperor Xuanguang leaned on his chair, looking a little uninterested.
"Wei Chen will send out my great soldiers to directly attack those greedy tribes, and then charge them higher taxes."
Wang Baobao said to Emperor Xuanguang.
"Well, raising taxes is indeed a good idea. It is not too harsh and can effectively deter people. Pick it up high and put it down gently."
Emperor Xuanguang nodded.
"Any more?"
Emperor Xuanguang continued to ask.
"Weichen intends to reward those tribes who have complied with my Dayuan requirements with better pastures."
"After all, where there is punishment, there must be reward. If Zhu Ming keeps giving benefits, and I, Dayuan, keep cracking down, I am afraid that people's minds will change and it will cause internal problems in Dayuan."
Wang Baobao cupped his hands and said.
"Well, that's right. Ai Qing is indeed a prodigy at that time. He is a general and a prime minister. With Ai Qing here, why worry about the Great Yuan not being prosperous?"
"Let's do it this way, advance and retreat in a controlled manner, and have clear rewards and punishments. Even if we can't achieve prosperity, we can still be able to govern the world."
Emperor Xuanguang nodded with satisfaction.
He also had ideas in his mind, but compared with Wang Baobao's method, it did seem crude and immature.
No wonder Wang Baobao told him that nothing happened. It turned out that he had already made a plan in his mind.
"My dear, although this Mobei grassland is not as rich as the hinterland of the Central Plains, it is still vast and vast, not inferior to the Central Plains."
"Can we learn from Zhu Ming and improve our various manufacturing capabilities without being hindered by Zhu Ming?"
Emperor Xuanguang turned to Wang Baobao and asked.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult. In fact, Mobei has no shortage of mineral resources and agricultural and animal husbandry output."
"But if the ministries continue to be nomadic, it will be difficult to form large-scale production. Especially, our spies in Zhu Ming reported that the British Duke Xiao Han had established a special production line production model."
"Dismantling the production process of a thing and doing only one step in each link makes people skilled and fast, which greatly increases Zhu Ming's output."
"But we can't do this kind of thing. After all, people from various tribes can't get together for a long time and continue to roam the grasslands, which will greatly affect the process."
"Perhaps, Xiao Han calculated that we wouldn't be able to use it, so he deliberately let our spies know the situation."
Wang Baobao sighed.
In the later industrial revolution, when one country progressed, other surrounding countries would soon follow.
Because if you fall behind, you will be beaten.
Wang Baobao naturally did not want to be suppressed by Ming Dynasty, but it was a pity that he could not make this progress and did not have the conditions for progress and improvement.
I looked at it anxiously. In the past few days, I had been thinking about how to solve it, and my hair had turned gray. Unfortunately, I found nothing.
The strange thing is that Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition was so powerful that he drove Meng Yuan back to Mobei from along the Yangtze River. All places suitable for development such as the Central Plains and Guanzhong were lost.
In the end, Wu Liangha has the possibility of stabilization, but he is not completely in control.
A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. Wang Baobao just wants to keep up with the pace of the Ming Dynasty, that is, just think about it.
"hateful!"
"Isn't there a solution?"
Emperor Xuanguang also quenched his voice.
"At present, it is true that there is no such thing. After all, we do not have fertile plains suitable for such development."
"If there is no solution, then we can only quietly learn Zhu Ming's production model, and then teach it to other khanates and let them produce for us. This is more reliable than Zhu Ming, an enemy."
Wang Baobao expressed his opinion.
"no!"
"Absolutely not!"
"Those guys are eager for my Dayuan to fall and take my place. Giving them such a good thing is not much better than getting it from Zhu Ming."
"Don't mention this again."
Emperor Xuanguang shook his head and refused directly.
The Ming Dynasty was a foreign enemy and had to be dealt with, but other khanates had to be guarded against even if they could be considered internal troubles.
Jinling City.
After a long journey, the two Hu brothers were finally delivered to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, in front of Xiao Han and Zhu Biao.
"Who is in the audience?"
Xiao Han glanced at Hu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground in chains, and asked lightly.
"Hu Yan, a merchant from the country of Cao Min Yue."
Hu Yan immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Han, and also took the hand of Hu Bin, who was shocked and dazed.
"What crime was committed?"
Xiao Han continued to speak without raising his head.
Hu Yan:…
Hu Bin:…
Brother, it’s boring to keep asking questions knowingly.
"Your Majesty the British Duke, the escort team led by Cao Min took action on his own and acted against orders while encircling Wan Shanhou and others."
Hu Yan lowered his head, not daring to look at Xiao Han.
"Oh? Then do you know what you should do if you disobey orders and follow military laws?"
Xiao Han slightly cast his gaze on Hu Yan and Hu Bin.
"Behead in public display."
Hu Yan was silent for a moment before speaking.
"In that case, do you think I should kill you?"
"In other words, do you want to die?"
Xiao Han narrowed his eyes and started to get to the point.
Brothers, monthly tickets are about to be doubled, and the author, Jun, is humble enough to ask for votes.
There is also a monthly ticket lottery, brothers can participate.
