Chapter 243 What does it mean to cut off the territory even if you win?
Make money, make money beyond your expectations, make money beyond your imagination?
Each prefix is more powerful than the last!
But Yinxuan was so excited that he quickly stretched out his chubby hand, which was a little thinner but still chubby: "Five, five times the profit?"
Ninth Prince shook his head and chuckled: "Five times? Some products have more than ten times the profit~"
Kangxi and the other princes were all shocked by the passionate, rising ending tone: "More than ten times the profit?"
Good fellow, the father and son are all good fellows: Nanyang is so close and it’s still like this, if it’s a little further away…
cough cough.
Now there is a very real possibility that Brother Jiu’s slogan will not just be a slogan. It can really grab the wealth of the world and become the military expenditure support for the Qing Dynasty’s conquest of the world!
The Ninth Prince chuckled and said that it was definitely a must.
"Before setting out to sea, Yinzhen never dreamed that the charm of the five words 'scarcity makes things valuable' would be so powerful. Moreover..."
He frowned and looked around, and found that all the eunuchs and palace maids had already left the hall.
The guards also stood guard from a distance.
Keep a distance where you can follow their instructions at any time, but cannot hear the specific content of their conversation.
The Ninth Prince then took out the small notebook that was still warm from his body temperature and said, "As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Since the imperial court wants to vigorously develop maritime trade, it is natural that it must understand the surrounding shipping routes, local customs, consumption capacity, and economic level, etc."
Wow!
Yin Xuan gave a thumbs up: "Ninth brother is amazing, he has thought very comprehensively!"
The Ninth Prince laughed, "Is that amazing? I have something even more amazing. Well, time was tight this time, so I didn't go too far. I only wandered around Luzon, so it's a little simple."
After he finished speaking, he was seen rummaging in his sleeves and pulled out a silk map.
Not only are the mountains, rivers, and population distribution clearly recorded, but even minerals and the like are clearly marked.
When he saw this, Yinxuan was a little excited, but...
[Is it possible? The Qing Dynasty, which measured the material resources of China and won the favor of other countries! The Qing Dynasty, which would cede territory to avoid trouble if there was a disagreement, and would also cede territory even if it won the war. Can it really change its previous conservative attitude and take the initiative?]
Yinxuan found it a little bit unbelievable, but Kangxi and the other princes found it completely hard to accept!
What does it mean to cede land even if you win the battle?
Kangxi was so furious!
Almost had another stroke.
At the critical moment, it was the Fourth Prince who signed the Treaty of Kyakhta in history who poured him tea and signaled him to think about the Treaty of Nerchinsk.
Putting aside the background and considerations at the time, just tell me, did you win the war and cede land?
Kangxi:! ! !
The sword pierced through his chest.
He moved his lips for a long time, but didn't utter any strong rebuttal.
The Ninth Prince gritted his teeth and said, "My dear brothers and sisters, you have not seen that Luzon Island has beautiful scenery, a superior location, and is rich in gold mines. It is very suitable to be a transit station for our Qing Dynasty to sail to Western countries."
"I fell in love with the island as soon as I arrived. I kept thinking about how to make such a beautiful island belong to our Aisin-Gioro family."
If it weren't for Yinzhen's words just now, Kangxi would have had to give this brat a good scolding.
So that he will know that he cannot digest too much.
Don't think about running away before you even leave.
But the Qing Dynasty has been disgraced by that brat, how can he, as the emperor, tolerate this?
He glared at Lao Jiu and said, "I told you to read more books, but you refused to listen. Now you regret not reading enough books, don't you? Is it worth it for you to rack your brains for such a small matter?"
"Luzon has always been a vassal state of the Central Plains, but the Ming emperor did nothing, which led to it falling into the hands of the Portuguese. Since our Qing Dynasty has taken over the Ming Dynasty, it is natural that we should also recover all vassal states, including but not limited to Luzon."
When he said this, Kangxi paused deliberately.
Just waiting for the little guy to continue revealing information.
It would also be good for them to know whether Luzon is one of the eight families and whether it is on their list of loans for revenge.
But after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear the little guy grappling with the same angrily curses as he did against Japan.
He just raised his fist and shouted loudly: "Khan Ama is wise! A real man born between heaven and earth should be so heroic and valiant. But..."
Yinxuan frowned, and the words "My son has something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not" were written on his face.
He succeeded in getting a big eye roll from Kangxi: "We are father and son, why can't we speak freely? You are so hesitant, not like a real man."
Hahaha.
Yinzhen smiled and made a number eight: "How old is my son? He is still far from being a real man!"
Another glare came at him, and he quickly raised his chubby hands in surrender: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, Khan Ama, I have a few humble opinions, you and your brothers just listen to them."
Reply to the first one, stand firm: "As Khan Ama said, Luzon has been a vassal state of the Central Plains since ancient times. But I personally think that compared to fighting for territory, it is more likely to unite people to avenge their countrymen."
Thank God, thank the earth, and thank myself for being the top student in the history class!
Even if you were to be transported into the body of a little baby and be completely assimilated, the relevant knowledge would not be lost.
Now when I talk about the four times the Portuguese massacred the Ming people, each time with tens of thousands of them, I can't help but grit my teeth.
He hated the cruelty of the devils and was angry at the weakness of the Ming court.
Tens of thousands of lives!
All he got in return was a bland edict to Luzon, which began by saying that the Luzon tribes had killed more than 10,000 merchants from Zhangzhou and Quanzhou for no reason, which frightened the Portuguese, who were already afraid that the Ming court would take the opportunity to attack, into trembling with fear.
What's the result?
In the same manifesto, they also helped to make up for it by saying that although the other party's crimes were serious, their attitude was good. In addition, the culprit of the overseas struggle was unknown; and among the four classes of people in China, merchants were the lowest. How could they start a war because of the lowly people?
Really...
Yin Xuan clenched his fist: "Really thinking about it makes me hate it so much!"
[And that wicked and vicious country has killed merchants from the Central Plains on a large scale more than once. Six times, six times in total! In the past, we had no choice but to feel sorry for it, but we must stop it if it hasn't happened yet.]
Uh-huh-huh.
Kangxi and the other princes nodded silently in their hearts: Such a hateful country, even if it is not among the eight families, must be added to the little book.
Yinxuan, who was completely immersed in his own emotions and didn't even notice how his father and brother behaved, scratched his head and said that this was all he could think of at the moment.
Another reason is that he was afraid that Khan Ama and his brothers would be blinded by interests and fight against the two countries on their own, which would lead to disastrous consequences.
So I suggested very seriously: "Eat your food one bite at a time and walk your journey one step at a time. Junggar alone is already a huge challenge, and you can't add Luzon to it at the same time. Otherwise..."
Yinzhen smiled at Kangxi's expectant gaze and said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid that all the civil and military officials in the court will kneel in the Imperial Ancestral Temple and the Fengxian Hall, which will annoy Khan Ama to the point of exhaustion."
Therefore, it is strongly recommended to take one step at a time and let the Dzungar Khanate become history first.
