[There is another update, try to add updates and ask for monthly tickets]

Bai Minghe is a little tired and has several troublesome things.

Bai Fu stood next to Bai Minghe's table, standing motionless, his eyes slightly closed and waiting for Bai Minghe to wake up.

"Brother Bai!" Jin Jie rushed out of the study. "They cheated us!"

Before Jin Jie finished speaking, Lu Qiyuan and Tao Lizheng also came in. The three of them were originally coming together. When they heard Jin Jie's shouting, Lu Qiyuan looked as if he was thinking. Old man Tao was full of fear.

"Old Tao, choose some good-looking things. I have something to tell you." Bai Minghe asked Old Man Tao to pick pearls.

"Yes! Sir! The little old man will go right away." Old man Tao felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right. Before one foot entered the door, he quickly retreated. The only thing they could do was Pearl, and there was absolutely nothing else. They didn't understand the others, so Old man Tao naturally went to find someone who really understood Pearl.

Lu Qiyuan gently closed the door. From the time the merchants entered Hepu, he knew that he and Hepu had become one, Hepu Rong, and Hepu Rong died when something happened to Hepu.

Because he is a juren, because he was saved by Bai Minghe, because everyone knows that he is Bai Minghe's man.

"Brother Bai, those lowly merchants only collect cash silver. A few big merchants said that they just don't want to give pearls, just cash silver. That's fine. I also know that Guangdong Dusi Yamen has something to say to these merchants. Everything has nothing to do with the Dusi Yamen. I just acted as a guarantor and asked for money to go to Hepu. Hepu can't get the money, and the Dusi Yamen will not be able to pay any debts!"

Jin Jie's face turned red with anger. He came from the palace, and it would be a trivial matter for him to come to the Ministry of the Ministry of the Ministry to give us some money.

Bai Minghe asked with a smile: "So what, what do you want to say to me?"

"They share the money. Now, Brother Bai, you can resist everything alone. This is unfair!" Jin Jie was really angry.

"Lu Qiyuan, what is the real reason for the sea ban?" Bai Minghe ignored Jin Jie and asked Lu Qiyuan instead.

Bai Minghe went out to walk around this circle, and after coming back, he realized many things.

For example: The merchants of the Ming Dynasty did not really come into contact with buyers from various countries. Their goods were probably transferred to South Asia after many hands. Therefore, the prices were amazingly expensive, and the goods were of poor quality, small quantity, and few varieties.

Overseas trade has huge benefits, but why did the Ming Dynasty ban the sea?

"Sir, the Ming Dynasty's sea ban was originally colluded with the fugitive forces in the late Yuan Dynasty. For example, Guangdong is five thousand miles away from the capital. One round trip is ten thousand miles. The imperial court's government orders will be passed here at least twenty days. In order to ensure the passage of the Ming Dynasty's government orders, there is only the sea ban!"

Lu Qiyuan is a real scholar. His words are very real and are also true historical facts.

In Baiminghe, it sounds like Lao Zhu is afraid that any force will affect his rule over the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the maritime ban is because he is afraid that these coastal areas will have too much contact with the outside world.

"Secondly, the Japanese pirates are crazy. What's even more terrifying is that some profit-seeking people cooperate with the Japanese pirates, hurting the people and the prefectures and counties!"

Injuring prefectures and counties. Is this a disaster for even the official government?

It seems that if you need to ask for details, there may be information about Japanese pirates that the White-Ker in the Jinyiwei needs.

"There is also the emphasis on agriculture and suppression of commerce."

When talking about this word, Bai Minghe thought of an introduction to Comrade Lao Zhu in later TV series. His ideal was strange: he wanted to restore a simple agricultural society where "chicken and dogs hear each other, and never interact with each other when they are old and die." If possible, he even wanted to abolish currency and commodity trading. In this context, it was not surprising that the Ming Taizu implemented a maritime ban. Even domestic trade wanted to be banned, let alone foreign trade? Defending against Japanese pirates is just a good excuse for implementing a maritime ban.

It seems that the real reason is to be closed to the country.

"The last point is also speculated by villains. Judging from the process of the Sanbao eunuch voyage to the West, the court does not want the people to have too much contact with overseas, nor does it want anyone to have deep connections with overseas. Foreign aids will resist the order!"

Lu Qiyuan said in one sentence that foreign players resist orders, and to put it bluntly.

With the help of overseas power, we came back to rebel.

"Appoint you to do two things on behalf of me. Go to the capital once, meet a few people, and give you some things."

"I dare to ask, what is it?" Lu Qiyuan asked afterwards.

"Some personal heads, several broken ships. Of course, there is also this." Bai Minghe pointed to the screen beside him. "The heads belong to Japanese people, which are more than a thousand. This screen is too expensive, and I am afraid that I will not sleep well if I stay here!"

Lu Qiyuan Botong knelt on the ground: "Sir, please listen to the villain's words. It's not that the villain is unwilling to serve the adults, but that it's better for the adults to go there in person."

"reason?"

"Sir, more than a thousand Japanese were killed. This was a great war, but there was no news in Guangdong. Isn't this strange? There are also people who left the name of the Dusi Yamen. Once they left Guangdong, it doesn't matter if the villain lives or dies, and Hepu will be in danger. The last point is that the debt of 700,000 taels of silver is required to settle the cash. The villain is in a low-intelligence and does not understand the reason. It just feels that all this is related to the Guangdong Dusi Yamen!"

Bai Minghe nodded after hearing this. Lu Qiyuan's reason was enough.

"Okay, then let me do something for you. Tell the merchants that the official is back. Let them write an introduction to their own business names, and then the official will meet them in batches based on the reputation and scale of the business names. Then, the official will requisition the civil servants and repair the warehouse."

"Yes, the villain took his leave!"

Lu Qiyuan dared to do this and was confident that he would do it very well.

Lu Qiyuan withdrew, and Jin Jie shouted again: "Brother Bai, you have heard that the Guangdong Dusi Yamen was messing with us. Yesterday it was only more than 500,000 taels, but today it was 700,000 taels. 200,000 taels of silver, which can kill many people if it is exchanged for gold." Jin Jie was extremely excited.

Bai Minghe smiled and waved his hand: "You don't understand, this is sincerity."

"What?" Jin Jie suspected that he had heard it wrong.

"I'll tell you one person, don't spread it." Bai Minghe signaled Jin Jie to approach him, and then said, "I, Bai Minghe, is a seventh-rank official. Why should the Dusi Yamen believe me? Why should I go against the Censor's Office for me and the General Secretary? Is it just a little money?"

Jin Jie didn't understand and looked at Bai Minghe blankly.

"Xiaojie, this is a sincerity. Because of sincerity, the Dusi Yamen wants to test my Bai Minghe's ability. These things seem to be troublesome, but compared to several major events in the future, there is no chicken feather in front of you."

"Brother Bai, I don't understand it anymore!" Jin Jie really couldn't understand it.

"There is nothing more than a problem of money right now. But in the future, we will face several major problems. First, the Three Guangdong Departments will definitely be against us. There will also be many people in the imperial court that either suppress us or want to force a share of profit. Second, we are outside, and if we have friends, we will definitely have enemies. Third, the Japanese and us will definitely stay alive."

Bai Fu, who had been squinting his eyes, opened his eyes at this time.

"Young Master is wise!"

Bai Minghe added: "If you can't show your strength, the support of the Dusi Yamen will definitely be limited. Without the support of the Dusi Yamen, we will not be able to solve any of the three troubles that followed."

Jin Jie still doesn't understand.

Bai Minghe didn't plan to explain anymore, and wrote a letter in front of Jin Jie: "You are the military supervisor. You go to the commander Mao to find the commander Mao, and you said you want to go to Beijing to offer prisoners. The two broken ships will be repaired, and if you can, you will be pulled up. If you can't, you have to remove the flag and then pull the mast. The other five ships will be repaired, filled with rice and ready to set off."

"I understand this, I will do it immediately!" Jin Jie responded and was about to leave.

After walking a few steps, he turned back and said, "Brother Bai, the eunuch guarding Nanzhili is Uncle Cheng's apprentice. How about asking him to solve some rice for us and exchange it for silver?"

"Xiaojie, don't blame my brother for being too talkative this time. Now, you can do whatever I ask you to do. Don't tell anyone you can't say anything. Now is an extraordinary time and you can't make mistakes. If you believe in brother, this matter will definitely have a good result. Now you can do what you have to do first."

"Of course I believe Brother Bai, I believe it even if I die!" Jin Jie patted his chest.

Bai Minghe smiled: "Okay, I'll give you an extra gold brick!"

Jin Jie left, but Bai Fu asked, "Young Master, why don't you borrow the eunuch from the Nanzhili governor? He can help us sell at least two million stones of grain."

"Uncle Fu, I know you must have been on the battlefield before. The battlefield is a killing person with blood. But you don't know that the shopping mall is no worse than the battlefield. This is a killing person with blood. Why should I ask the eunuch to guard the garrison and leave his favor? Wait for him to come and ask me to give him some rice, and he will owe me a favor."

"Is it possible?" Bai Fu didn't believe it very much.

"Believe me, Uncle Fu. I asked Uncle Fu to help me decorate this study these days, pick out the extremely precious arrangements from our goods this time. Just be a nouveau riche, and then I will see these merchants again!"

After Bai Minghe finished speaking, he took out a map and placed it on the table.

"Now is the most important thing. This is the map of Danang. Chen Ada is already working on the defense of the navy. But on land, I am going to place three thousand combat powers there. Why don't Uncle Fu go over and see this problem in person? Then use the old soldiers given to us by the Dusi Yamen!"

Bai Fu looked at the map for a long time and shook his head: "It's hard! There are too few people in three thousand people, so I can't protect this land of the young master!"

"Where is five thousand?" Bai Minghe asked again.

Bai Fu still shook his head: "At least 8,000 people, this area is not easy to defend. There are open areas in all directions, crisscrossing waterways, and the surrounding terrain is higher than that of the young master."
