Chapter 801 Zhao Kuangyin's Big Business

Zhao Da led the fleet away. This time, there were ten armored ships and hundreds of sailing warships to Tianzhu. This was a very large and spectacular maritime formation. There were 500 cannons alone!

The black muzzle declares the majesty of the fleet.

Zhao Kuangyin was very confident that this was a powerful fleet that could destroy a country at will. With his order, he could seize fertile land, occupy key maritime routes, and do whatever he wanted.

You can even establish a country overseas and live the emperor's addiction!

There is something called ambition that expands rapidly, which makes Zhao Da feel a little restless and anxious. He never dared to think about it in the past, with Ye Hua pressing on it, and Han Tong and Zhang Yongde staring at it below. If you think too much, you will lose your head.

But now it’s different. I am the only one left. Even if I become emperor in India and the court knows, it will take at least one year to dispatch troops to conquer. With his ability, it will be fine for a few years... Should I be a good baby for life or a emperor for a few years?

It's really a difficult question to choose!

The vast ocean is vast and boring... Because it is vast, the courage will become great, and because it is boring, it dares to think about it.

When the fleet passed the Malacca Strait, Dazhou ships appeared in front of him, and Xu Shiling's subordinates came to greet him.

"Welcome to the Governor!"

Zhao Kuangyin then remembered that the Great Zhou had already had a huge power in India, so he should be the governor honestly!

Zhao Da respectfully sent those national treasure-level scholars to land, and then took big steps to set foot on the land of India. The battle to conquer India started!

...

After seeing Zhao Da off, Ye Hua was still a little reluctant to let him go. Don’t look at him and Zhao Kuangyin always spoke harshly and had nothing to say. In fact, Zhao Da is quite qualified, especially if he can perfectly understand his meaning and do things in a proper way. It is no longer easy to find such a person in the military.

After several weighings, Ye Hua asked Gao Huaide to take over the position of Minister of National Defense... In the past few years, there were not many ministers left in the older generation. Fan Zhi died of illness three years ago. Wang Pu also got sick some time ago, and only Wei Renpu was left. This old man was very energetic.

Perhaps it is true that good people don’t live long, and they will be harmed for thousands of years!

It is this kind of old fox that can survive the storm and stand firm.

Ye Hua replenished the cabinet, a large number of later officials including Fan Gao, Song Bai, Tao Gu, Jia Huangzhong, etc. officially proclaimed Ma and became the new pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Among these people, they were either Ye Hua's old subordinates or students... Now, Ye Hua has become a big tree covering the sky. Looking at the entire court, there are really not many people who have nothing to do with him. Even if it doesn't matter, they will try their best to get up and strive to be a disciple of the Yemen.

"Since you are willing to get up, don't blame me for being merciless!"

Ye Hua would not treat his students as treasures. If you want to be Ye Hua's student, you must do something earth-shaking!

For example, Fan Gao and Ye Hua asked him to take over the work of the Ruling.

"You are the nephew of Mr. Fan. Mr. Fan laid the foundation for the law and order for the Great Zhou Dynasty... You should take over this part now, and you must legislate and regulate all behaviors, have complete laws and regulations, and implement the laws!"

Fan Gao grinned, what else could he say, "Prime Minister, please rest assured, the subordinates will definitely live up to their trust!"

After sending him away, Ye Hua called Liu Kai.

"You are responsible for water conservancy projects across the country, especially the management of the Huai River. Last year, the Huai River flooded, and more than one million people were displaced and homeless. If something similar continues to happen next year, I will blame you!"

"No need to ask the master to be guilty, the disciple jumped into the Huaihe River and apologized for his death!"

Liu Kai strided with his head high and left with confidence. As the leader of the Liu family in Hedong, Liu Kai was full of energy and could be called the vanguard in the court. It was the pioneer of Ye Hua's hand!

...

In this way, Ye Hua assigned one job to another. As the prime minister, he actually didn't have to do much. To sum it up, one was to find the right person and the other was to provide sufficient resources.

He has no shortage of talents. What really makes Ye Hua care about is resources. Such a big country is not enough to spend much money!

Everyone says that if you are not in charge of your family, you don’t know that the firewood and rice are expensive. Only after you are in charge of your family will you know that it is not just the firewood and rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, needles, threads, and brains, and nothing is cheap!

Take flood control as an example. Last year, a budget of 7 million was prepared, and this year it will increase to at least 10 million!

Where does the money come from?

You can't print banknotes casually! Although the court has issued a lot of money... Ye Hua rubbed his swollen temples and couldn't help but think of Zhao Kuangyin, and asked him to squeeze Tianzhu. I don't know what the situation is going on?

"Is there any news about your elder brother?"

Ye Hua called Zhao Er and asked directly.

Zhao Er smiled and said, "Master, guess where my elder brother got beaten?"

Ye Hua frowned, "I don't have time to guess the riddle with you... According to normal calculations, he can at least destroy the Zhuluo Kingdom and occupy the southern part of India... If he didn't even do this, don't blame me for dismissing him immediately!"

Zhao Er was quite content, "Master, you guessed wrong this time. My elder brother has almost entered Delhi!"

"What? Delhi?"

Ye Hua was quite surprised, "Why, why is his march so fast? Could it be that he flew over?"

After all, Zhao Kuangyin had only been in India for more than half a year, and he could not imagine that he could go deep into the heart of India!

"You didn't brag for your elder brother, did you?" Ye Hua said skeptically.

Zhao Er said helplessly: "I hope he is slower, it is best to dismiss him and then let me go... But I have to admit that my elder brother is doing a good job, at least now!"

Zhao Er is really worthy of being a trapper, and he hopes that Zhao Kuangyin will make a mistake, but Zhao Da created a miracle! Even Ye Hua felt that he underestimated Zhao Kuangyin too much in the past. This guy is a bit weird!

What Ye Hua thought, Zhao Da didn't know. He was now indulging in the crowd and enjoyed it very much.

Delhi is an ancient city with a history of thousands of years, and it is also the intersection of commercial roads. It has developed handicrafts, gold and silver utensils, ivory carvings, leather musical instruments, etc.... Although the strict hierarchy is certainly depressing, it also makes many craftsmen focus on one thing and have been passed down from generation to generation. The top Indian craftsmen are no worse than the craftsmen of the Great Zhou.

In the past days, they have welcomed countless conquerors, and it is no wonder that Zhao Kuangyin has arrived. Anyway, the mission of craftsmen is to work constantly to meet the enjoyment needs of the people above... As for who the people above are, it doesn't matter to them.

Unlike the bottom, the upper class of Delhi was trembling. What they were afraid of was not Zhao Kuangyin, but the barbarians who came down from the mountain pass to the north...

The iron hooves are about to ravage India again, and all the Brahmins are praying for the blessing of the gods.

On this continent, there are tens of millions of people, but there are hundreds of millions of gods.

But when the powerful enemy invades, even the greatest Lord Shiva is useless.

The Brahmin had to seek help from Zhao Kuangyin.

"Instead of looking for me, you might as well let go and mobilize your people and let them arm them. You have tens of millions of people, and you can drown the scum of the north with one mouthful. What a simple thing, why bother with difficulty!"

"No!"

Zhao Kuangyin's words seemed to step on the Brahmin's tail, and they screamed in shock and looked frightened.

There is no shortage of devout believers in the world, but they are by no means the upper class of religion, because they all know that the so-called gods are used to deceive fools. They are very smart, so they will not believe it!

It is precisely because of their intelligence that they become frightened.

Letting the lower castes master force and let the untouchables take up weapons is ten thousand times more terrible than barbarian invasion!

They would rather kneel under the enemy's cavalry and live a life than die under the butcher's knife of the untouchables.

I would rather have friends than slaves!

These guys know better than anyone else!

Since Zhao Kuangyin set foot on the land of Heaven, he issued a statement that he should respect Brahmanism, exempt the temple from taxes, and give all rights to the temple. He could govern the place in his own land, completely according to religious doctrines.

Zhao Kuangyin issued an order allowing all temples, Brahmins, large families to recommend people with both moral integrity and ability to become officials.

As soon as he came up, Zhao Da fully won over the upper class of Tianzhu and changed Xu Shiling's tough approach.

Soon after receiving the response from the Brahmins, they even gave Zhao Kuangyin a title of honor, calling him a "benevolent and just orderer"!

It was with the support of these Brahmins that Zhao Kuangyin could enter Delhi without bloodshed.

Of course, it would be a big mistake to think that Brahmins are so easy to fool. They also had their own purpose in asking the Great Zhou to enter Delhi.

As mentioned earlier, the Great Zhou defeated the coalition forces of the Black Khanate and the Saman Dynasty in the Western Regions and occupied Talas.

These barbarian dynasties have no resilience. Once they are defeated, they will mean their country's destruction.

The remaining forces of the Saman Dynasty began to move southward and invade India... These defeated generals entered India and suddenly became the invincible god of war, rushing around and unscrupulous!

The upper class of Tianzhu soon knelt down again... But at this time, Zhao Kuangyin came and they found a protector.

"I can help you, but the price of my soldiers in Dazhou is not cheap! If we send one army, you will have to offer a hundred slaves in exchange, how about?"

"One hundred slaves?"

"That's right! I can mobilize about 10,000 people. As long as you are willing to give me one million slaves, I will help you defend Delhi, and even drive those pagan enemies out of India!"

Zhao Kuangyin grinned and said, "We Han people know how to build walls very well. I can help you seal the mountain passes in the north, build tall city walls, and put on sharp artillery. From then on, you will be safe!"

All the Brahmins on the upper level looked at each other and their breathing became rapid. This business was good!
