They are all facing threats, needing the protection of the Ming Dynasty and the firm attitude of the Ming Dynasty!

The policy of the Southeast Peninsula is to use both hard and soft skills. On the one hand, it is "shocked" and win over and divides: they are shocked with powerful military strength and dare not move, but look for the chess pieces they need to use!

The water on the peninsula is now very deep, and the Ming Dynasty cannot waste a long-term large-scale war, and it does not have much benefit and is not cost-effective.

Then, next is the Netherlands and Spain.

Zhu Xu picked up the tea again and said, "You have a good look, think about it, and ask me if you don't understand anything."

King Ping, King Tang, and Xiong Wencan looked up, then looked at each other again, all in silence, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

The Ming Dynasty emphasized culture over military affairs, and suppressed commerce. Now the emperor is obviously more keen on commerce, so he still needs to lift the ban in an all-round way. For those who have already been deeply rooted in their ideas, it is a very uncomfortable impact and cannot wake up for a while.

Zhu Xu waited for a while and saw that no one was talking, and said, "King Ping went to see Badali, Nikru. King Tang met Korea, Satsuma, Ryukyu, and Xiong Wencan met the countries on the Southeast Peninsula. If you still cannot understand thoroughly, study it first or ask me, and then go. It is related to my national affairs, and you must not make any mistakes!"

The three of them were shocked and stood up immediately and said, "I obey the order!"

Zhu Xu took a deep breath in secret. These were not the key points, what he had to do was the most important thing!

The three of them glanced at Zhu Xu again and left.

The three of them left Zhu Xu's study room, stopped outside, looked at each other, and remained silent for a while. The Tang King said in a deep voice, "The emperor is heroic, far-sighted, and talented. Even if we are confused, we cannot drag our backs. We must do our best to do this and not slacken at all!"

King Ping agreed very much. He watched Zhu Xu walk along the way, and also watched the changes in the Ming Dynasty with his own eyes. He shook his hands and looked at the two of them and said, "Yes, yes."

Xiong Wencan is a soft-hearted person and is not a firm 'war general'. Seeing that the two princes said this, he thought about it and said, "These are not difficult, they just need to take time to do it."

Of course, although Zhu Xu just said it simply, he wrote several pages of paper, involving all aspects, and it was also a "new policy". It required the Ming Dynasty to work together from top to bottom. Now it is just a meeting with the heads of various countries to reach an intention, and things must be carefully cultivated and done slowly in the future.

The three of them looked at each other, and King Tang said, "We act separately and cannot let down the holy hope!"

King Ping and Xiong Wencan all nodded and turned around and left.

Not long after the three of them left, Zhu Xu calmed down and said, "Bring Putmans." This is the governor of the Dutch East India Company stationed in Batavia, which is now Jakarta. The Spanish Okundo ran away, and the minion he caught was not qualified to negotiate.

Putmans is now in a mess, with no change of clothes, his hair is not as combed as before, and his face is a little haggard. In short, from the outside to the inside, he is not good, very bad, and terrible.

Despite his embarrassment, he was still very gentlemanly, bowing to Zhu Xu with the etiquette of the Roman Empire, and said, "Putmans has seen His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty."

He spoke pure Roman, and there was a businessman walking in Nanyang doing translation next to him.

Zhu Xu sat upright and nodded, "Please sit."

After Zhu Xu finished speaking, an imperial guard brought a chair and placed it not far from Zhu Xu's table.

Putmans saluted again, sat down on the chair, looked directly at Zhu Xu, and said, "Dear Your Majesty the Ming Dynasty, I am deeply sorry for the previous offense. I am willing to make compensation to make up for your country's losses..."

Zhu Xu looked unmoved and said, "Compensation is necessary. No one dared to offend our country for a long time. However, I don't want to hear ordinary words and repeat some of the past words monotonically. You should know that our navy is attacking Manila. How long do you think it will last? Manila is not far from Batavia."

Putmans' face changed slightly, his face was calm and he didn't say anything.

He already knew that Ming was attacking the Philippines, but he did not expect that Ming had such a big appetite that he was even battling Batavia's idea!

Okundo came out with all his might, and Manila was basically out of the sky. It did not mean that the regular army of the North Korea, even a group of pirates of a small scale, could break through their royal city! The same is true for their East India Company headquarters, Batavia. There were not many people stationed. As long as the Ming Dynasty tried a little harder, the headquarters would be removed, and the colonies of nearby islands would fall into the hands of the Ming people, and even threatened further north, the entire Asia!

This result made him shudder. They would be driven out of Asia, lose everything in Asia, and never come back!

What's even more terrifying is that the Ming Kingdom may wage war with the Netherlands around the world. The Netherlands is already fighting openly and secretly with Spain, and will never be willing to add the powerful empire of the East!

Although Putmans was afraid in his heart, his face was not moved. He was also an old colonial governor. He had his own set of methods and looked straight at Zhu Xu and said, "We will give a price that is enough to satisfy His Majesty the Emperor in exchange for His Majesty's friendship. However, I hope that before this, His Majesty's army will not attack our territory and fleet, and your country's army will not act hostile to us without the negotiations ending."

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "I am very willing to promise you, but you should know that the sea area is too large and I am not sure what step they have already taken when my notifications arrive."

Putmans' eyes suddenly froze, and his expression showed a hint of nervousness. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty was not lying to him. This is indeed a real problem. Moreover, it has been too long since he was captured!

Once those places are really captured by the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible for them to vomit them out again! He is now even more worried about whether the Ming Dynasty will go to Malacca and completely wipe out Asia!

The Netherlands' colonies are now divided into three parts: America, Africa, and Asia, among which Asia is the largest and richest, and the profits obtained from trade are also the most abundant. America and Africa are too backward to compare. If the Netherlands is driven out of Asia, the losses will be immeasurable. He will be subject to the harshest trial when he returns!

Zhu Xu's face was calm and he never moved from beginning to end.

He did not use any conspiracy and tricks, and was upright. The general trend was in the Ming Dynasty. He let the red-haired ghost have any conspiracy and tricks, and his army defeated it!

Putmans was uneasy. He had almost no bargaining chips in his hand and could not negotiate with the Emperor of Ming. He kept looking at Zhu Xu and said for a long time, "Dear Your Majesty, the East India Company is willing to maintain an absolutely friendly relationship with the Ming Dynasty and pay the price that will make you excited for this offense. Please respond with friendship. Putmans promises that this incident will never happen again!"

Zhu Xu shook his head slightly and said, "You should know that the silk, tea, porcelain and other things you like are actually not very expensive in my Ming Dynasty. Our country's territory is hundreds of times that of Spain and more than twenty times the population. The business I own personally has a silver income of nearly 100 million taels per year. I don't think you can pay the amount that makes me excited."

The translator looked at Zhu Xu calmly. The emperor's words were obviously bragging, but he still translated them truthfully.

Sure enough, Putmans opened his eyes wide and looked shocked when he heard this. But thinking about the porcelain and silk he transported every time he sold at a sky-high price, and the powerful Ming emperor in front of him seemed to be inappropriate.

His face changed and he was extremely embarrassed. The Ming Dynasty was too strong, and it was ten times more powerful than the Netherlands now, and of course, it was impossible to go far away from the country to war with the Ming Dynasty.

He shook his head left and right, frowned and said anxiously: "Dear Emperor, perhaps... I really can't give you a price that satisfies you, but I am willing to exchange for a sincere friendship with Your Majesty at the greatest price."

Zhu Xu was so happy that he said, "Tell me, look."

Putmans struggled in his heart and said, "I am willing to compensate His Majesty with 10,000 taels of gold, 500,000 taels of silver, rice and other grains for one million kilograms, and I am willing to give half of our territory to the Ming Kingdom."

Zhu Xu looked at Putmans and said with a calm and disturbing look: "Your things should be on the southern island. Maybe it won't take long before my army will discover it."

Putmans' face immediately wrinkled, and his breath became a little rapid.
