After discussing the plan to lure the enemy, Zhu Cijiong felt that the layout of the Mughal Empire was almost done. He was about to retreat and go back to the harem to rest, but Shivera suddenly said reluctantly: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that I will not have the chance to serve you in the future. I will let Kong Dede do the Mughal Empire. "

Why does this guy feel like he's giving his last words? Zhu Cijing asked with a serious face: "What's wrong?"

Schvira still said with reluctance: "Weichen will return to China in a few days. Duke Bragansa needs help, and everyone unanimously recommends Weichen to assist. For the sake of the motherland, Weichen has to leave the Ming Dynasty."

It's a good thing to do for a long time, Zhu Cijiong asked with great interest: "When are you going to start a fight?"

Upon hearing this, Schvira said without any concealment: "Spain is secretly reorganizing the Invincible Armada. It is estimated that their war with the Anti-Habsburg Alliance is not far away. As long as the war lasts, they will definitely mobilize their troops to the French border to defend against the anti-Habsburg Alliance's attack. At that time, they would have no troops on the Western Front, which is just right for us to reprimand."

Zhu Cijing nodded and said, "Well, this is indeed a good opportunity. Before you prepare to reprimand, you will send someone to Valencia to inform Xiao Jiucheng of the news. At that time, I will go to Europe to mediate for you. When you reprimand, try not to kill and leave some room for me so that I can speak for you."

Upon hearing this, Schvira said excitedly: "The Emperor is really going to Europe to mediate for us?"

Zhu Cijiu said angrily: "Of course it's true. Do you think I was joking last time? Jun Wu joked, don't you know this?"

Schvira almost jumped up excitedly. He patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, Master, we don't plan to kill people, we just want to expel all the officials they dispatched. After all, we don't want to go to war with Spain."

Zhu Cijiong nodded and said, "Well, that's good. I'm going to send the fifty super battleships ordered by Spain in June. If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to deliver them to Spain in September. You can hurry up and prepare."

Upon hearing this, Schvira's eyes showed a light of hope and her whole body trembled slightly. There is hope for restoration of the country, and there is hope for restoration of the country! At most, there will be half a year left, and Portugal will be restored!

This guy beat him for a while and suddenly said a little embarrassedly: "Master, we want to order a batch of weapons from the Ming Empire."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Cijiu glanced at this guy for no reason. If you buy weapons, just buy weapons. What's so embarrassing? When did the Ming Dynasty reject the request for allies to purchase weapons? It was just that it was just a matter of quantity. He probably wouldn't buy too many weapons, because their population was only that, so he generously said: "How much is needed? I'll calculate half the price for you, just treat it as a gift to celebrate your restoration."

Shivera thanked her and said, "Thank you, the emperor, we need 50,000 flintlock rifles, 50,000 grenades, 500 cannons, and... "

Zhu Cijiu is so generous now that he is wearing a formal outfit. This weapon is nothing. Although he earns more than 10 million taels less, it is not a loss to make the ally relations between the two countries stronger.

Seeing Schvira's hesitation, he couldn't help but urged: "What else? Say, are you still afraid that I won't sell it to you?"

Upon hearing this, Schvira mustered up the courage and said, "We also want to order a batch of super battleships from the Ming Dynasty."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Cijiu almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. It was a super battleship again. Daming himself was not enough, okay?

He asked angrily: "Why do you want super battleships? Do you still want to compete with continental powers for colonies? This idea is a bit unrealistic. The Ming Dynasty cannot sell too many super battleships to you. Give up this idea. It would be great if you can defend the existing colony."

Schvira quickly shook her head and said, "Master, we don't want to compete with the European powers for colonies, we just want to slowly transport the wealth of America back to China. Now the waterway from America to Europe is too unsafe. There are so many pirates, and the armed merchant ships and even the navy of the great powers do not follow the rules. If there is no super battleship escort, even if we disguise the treasure ship as a merchant ship, it will be useless and will definitely be robbed!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Cijing asked in surprise: "There is such a thing? It's okay to snatch the colony, but will they snatch the merchant ships? How can I do this business!"

Schvira said helplessly: "In the vast sea, whoever can follow the rules and whose fists are bigger is the rules. Why can they force Spanish peace talks? It is because they can unite to block Spanish merchant ships and treasure ships. By then, the wealth fortune of America will not return to its hometown, and Spain will not be over!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Cijing nodded and said, "Yeah, this is a bit reasonable. Let's say, how many super battleships do you need?"

Schvira longed to say: "If there are twenty super battleships, they can form a certain deterrence. As long as they don't dispatch the navy, there will be basically no danger; if there are fifty super battleships, they can be afraid. As long as they don't provoke them on their own, they shouldn't snatch Portugal's merchant ships anymore."

Fifty ships, fifty ships, and Zhu Cijiu's heart was bleeding. However, he still hoped that Portugal could develop and help the Ming Dynasty restrain the European powers and even Spain. After thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, the Ming Dynasty will provide you with fifty super battleships at the end of the year."

Schvira was ecstatic when she heard this, "Thank you, Your Majesty, you are so generous. We will collect it as soon as possible for fifty super battleships."

Zhu Cijing thought for a while and shook his head and said, "Forget it, you just restored your country, and there are many places to use money. Even if you calculate half the price for you, fifty super battleships still require 100 million taels of silver. If you take out so much money at a time, how can you still have money to develop? Don't pay for this 100 million taels with gold and silver, just use other things to replace it."

When Schvira heard this, his eyes were wet. His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire was so nice to them. Even the future development was considered for them. He moved him and said, "Master, what do you need, as long as we have, you can just say it."

What is the most valuable thing at this time? Of course it is a colony. Schvira is ready to give up a colony. He really made the decision because Duke Bragansa has given him full authorization. Duke Bragansa said that as long as he can buy a super battleship from the Ming Dynasty, even if he can sell one or two colonies, he will be willing to do so!

Schvira also understood why the Duke of Braganza was so anxious, because without the super battleship, the waterway between Portugal and all colonies might be cut off by the great powers at any time. If the wealth of the colonies is not transported back to their homeland, what is the difference between not having a colony? If one or two colonies are exchanged for the wealth of all colonies, this business will not be a loss at all!

Zhu Cijiu also wanted a colony, but he didn't want to take advantage of the danger. If he took the opportunity to ask Portugal for one or two colonies at this time, they would give it to him, but the ally relationship would lay a crack, which was the least he wanted to see.

So, after thinking about it for a while, he gave up asking for the colony and continued to say generously: "Then use copper ore instead. I heard that copper ore is abundant in the Americas. Now the Ming Dynasty is making copper wires and copper coins. The consumption of copper ore is very large. You provide the Ming Dynasty with 1,000 tons of copper ore every month, and it will only take ten years to supply it. In addition, you will rent a port city in Portugal to the Ming Dynasty. I happened to use this as an excuse to go to the continent to help you mediate."

Schvira was so grateful when she heard this. Copper mines and other things were really not valuable to them. Just beg the indigenous people to dig. As for the port, didn’t Portugal rent a Macau in the Ming Dynasty? It was not too much to rent a port in Portugal!

Finally, he choked with tears and said, "Master, we Portugal will never forget your help."
