Chapter 960: The Rioted Businessman

In the morning court, many ministers secretly glanced at Jiang Lang. These days he actually took a foreigner to see the Ming warship. Isn’t this intention to leak the Ming military intelligence? I guess this matter has also been heard by the emperor, and see how he explains it!

Many people were waiting to see Jiang Lang’s good show at this time, but the people from the Ministry of War did not make any noise. They knew very well what was going on. This was the decree of Emperor Jingtai. These unknown adults were whining there for a long time, and they would probably see their defeat in a while!

Jiang Lang is now winning battles one after another, which has made the people of the Ministry of War a lot of credit, so before they knew it, they are already standing on Jiang Lang’s side!

Perhaps because Jiang Lang was back, some ministers immediately decided to participate in Jiang Lang's book. After all, Emperor Jingtai denied Jiang Lang's proposal some time ago. In the hearts of some ministers, this became a signal that Jiang Lang was out of favor. If he didn't participate in him, wouldn't he missed the best opportunity? Maybe he would be punished, which would somehow impress his foundation!

Emperor Jingtai sat high on the dragon throne, and the eunuch next to him was still honestly shouting: "If you have something to say, you will leave the court if you have nothing to do!"

However, before these ministers could stand up and speak, Jiang Suo stood up first and said loudly: "I have something to do!"

"Accepted!"

Emperor Jingtai said lightly!

Jiang Lang immediately said loudly: "According to the emperor's oral order, I will lead the envoy William to visit the navy, and I have returned now!"

Jiang Lang's words made many people tremble. It was the emperor's intention to take the foreign envoy to visit. This made them feel a little incredible, but at the same time they had to wonder why Emperor Jingtai agreed. Could it be that Jiang Lang's own decision?

For these ministers, they can now be considered mixed with five flavors. Those who originally planned to participate in Jianglang's book might be able to use the emperor to strike him well. They knew that this was actually allowed by the emperor. They waited for a day or two to plan there, but they thought they had found an opportunity and now it seemed like a joke!

I couldn't help feeling a little discouraged. While I was depressed, I had to face the current problem. The original plans were simply impossible to work, and now I can only see how they talked!

"Well, tell me the specific situation!"

Emperor Jingtai agreed, although someone had reported this specific situation to him, he still hoped to hear his detailed report now!

"Yes, the emperor!"

When Emperor Jingtai really knew nothing, Jiang Langquan reported: "We arrived at the military port in two days. On the second day, we took three warships to the location of the exercise. The content of the exercise was that there was a place where the enemy had supplies on the island. Our goal was to destroy this supply point. The combat steps were mainly divided into two parts. First, the troops landed, set up ambush in the places where the enemy was expected to escape, and annihilated the escaped enemies. At the same time, for capturing prisoners, we asked if there were other supply points. Second, the battleship attacked the supply points with all its strength and destroyed the supply points! Because there was no consideration to how much enemy supplies could be saved, the battleship firepower was used to suppress the enemy's camp! A short time and other things destroyed the enemy's camp...!"

"Wang Aiqing, I don't need to talk about this in detail. How do you tell me about William's reaction?"

Emperor Jingtai waved his hand and said!

“It’s a big reflection!”

Jiang Lang replied!

"What a great method?"

Emperor Jingtai asked, and now he also wanted to know what kind of magic it was. You should know that many foreigners were surprised when they saw the Ming Dynasty's weapons, and were very surprised. After all, they could not create such a powerful weapon!

"Well, it can be described as stunned!"

Jiang Lang said, "Even our military telescope is a very strange existence for him. When he saw our warships fire, he was stunned and his face looked very bad. I think the main point is that they had never seen such powerful weapons as us. Moreover, he did not rest that night. The next day, he hurriedly asked me to take them to the shooting range, and I took them there as I said. At the same time, I also had a very bold idea and asked the emperor to decide!"

"Bold ideas?"

The two Emperors of Jingtai were surprised and said, "Then tell me, what kind of bold idea is it!"

Jiang Lang looked at the civil and military ministers in the court and then said, "This idea is really a bit bold. I also asked the emperor to give me the opportunity to face the saint alone. At the same time, it has a lot to do with the Ministry of Works!"

When Emperor Jingtai heard this, he understood everything and said, "Okay, today's morning court will end here. The Minister of Works, Prime Minister, and Wang Aiqing stayed here, and the rest will go down!"

Although it was not clear what trick Jiang Lang was doing, these ministers still honestly knelt down and left the Golden Palace. Only four people were left. Even the eunuchs who served them retreated, and the door was closed tightly. The reason why Jiang Lang did not leave the Ministry of War was because this matter had nothing to do with them. After all, the weapon manufacturing was a matter of the Ministry of Works. The current system was not like that of modern foreign countries. The Ministry of War used what weapons to use, not what weapons they needed to make. Moreover, the issue of weapons exports had no new relationship with their voices!

"Wang Aiqing, now you can say it!"

Emperor Jingtai said that there are no people left in the entire Golden Palace now, and they are all people that Jiang Lang asked to stay. As for that bold idea, I still want to hear what Jiang Lang really refers to!

"Yes, the emperor!"

Jiang Lang said respectfully, "Your Majesty, during the contact with William, I discovered a very important situation. He seemed very interested in our weapons. After returning, I also asked someone to sort out the information about overseas, and thus found a problem. William's country is not as stable as ours, but very turbulent as we do. The two major forces began to fight each other! Therefore, I think this should be our opportunity!"

Although it is not clear about the history of Britain now, every time I go to sea, in addition to trade, those merchants are also a means of collecting intelligence. After returning, Jiang Lang immediately sorted out some information about Britain now and found that the country is now in a situation where two major forces are versus each other. Their king is now similar to a puppet, and combined with William's nervousness, it can be seen that this person urgently needs to get the weapons of the Ming Dynasty. After all, the advanced nature of the weapons of the Ming Dynasty is not comparable to that of them, so Jiang Lang is even more sure that he will definitely make a lot of money in doing business with them now!

Among these people, Yu Qian knew what Jiang Lang was thinking now. To be honest, he was a little nervous now because he was also worried that Emperor Jingtai would be furious after Jiang Lang said it, and he was also thinking in his heart how he should come to save the emperor Long Yan if he was furious. To be honest, Jiang Lang's idea was really too bold!

But Emperor Jingtai didn't know what Jiang Lang was thinking, so he continued to ask: "What's the opportunity? Can we still send people to help them with one aspect of the fight? It seems that they are too far away from us!"

Emperor Jingtai did not understand Jiang Lang's meaning for a while, so he said this. However, this is indeed too far from the Ming Dynasty. I guess the Ming Dynasty's military strength could not be derived to that kind of place!

Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't mean this. For these countries, our military aggression is somewhat unfeasible. After all, we need to sail for a long time to arrive. We will be very difficult to supply different from merchant ships, but we can take another method!"

"What's the way?"

Emperor Jingtai asked!

"Economic aggression!"

Jiang Lang immediately expressed the answer in his heart!

"Economic aggression?"

Emperor Jingtai couldn't help but mutter. This was a fresh noun, and he had never heard of it. Then he asked: "The economic aggression you mentioned is the great opportunity you mentioned now!"

"yes!"

Jiang Lang replied, "The so-called snipe and clam fight, the fisherman gains profit. Now that country is the snipe and clam fight, we have to be that fisherman. We have no way to send troops to their country directly to help them fight in one aspect, but we can provide them with weapons! This is also the great opportunity I just said! "

Emperor Jingtai couldn't help but frowned and said:: Provide weapons?"

You know that this was the first time I heard Jiang Lang talk about it, so Xi was still a little confused. What is the so-called weapon provided?

Seeing that Emperor Jingtai was interested, Jiang Lang immediately said: "Yes, it means providing weapons, but our weapons are not provided to them for free, we sell them to us, that is, arms trading. Now, the country's civil strife, the consumption of weapons is quite amazing, and they do not have the strength to make their own weapons, so as long as we sell weapons to them, especially some ammunition, they will sell them to us after they are used up, so that their silver can be kept on us. This is completely comparable to ordinary trade in one aspect. After all, these weapons and other things are consumables, and you have to buy them if you don't use them!"

The people from the Ministry of Works probably understand the meaning of Jiang Lang leaving himself and others, because the manufacturing of this weapon is the head of the Ministry of Works. If you want to export weapons, you must naturally increase the output by the Ministry of Works!

Hearing Jiang Lang say this, Emperor Jingtai is a little in trouble. The reason why the Ming Dynasty can achieve such a great victory now is largely due to its advanced weapons. If the weapon is sold to others, this...

"Your Majesty, I know you have concerns, but please listen to me!"

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Jiang Lang immediately said 1

"Okay, then you can continue to say that to be honest, we have sold some ordinary swords to the thorns in exchange for their good horses before. Now there is no such precedent for this weapon!"

Emperor Jingtai said that he also wanted to know why Jiang Lang said this. Exporting weapons is a very important thing, and Jiang Lang has always been very careful in doing things, so of course he would not rashly propose this idea!

As long as Emperor Jingtai wanted to listen to himself, it was an opportunity. Jiang Lang continued: "The reason for selling this weapon to them is mainly the following reasons. First, our navy is now very powerful. The warships are not only equipped with various artillery, but also transport troops to places where we need to transport them in a short time. On this ocean, we can say that there are no enemies, but they are different. Their navy has just started, and even the artillery preparations are very small on this warship. It is very difficult for us to transport troops to their country to transport troops to our country. Then it is also very difficult, or completely impossible for them to transport troops to our Ming Dynasty. Moreover, we do not have to worry about their navy attacking us for at least a few decades. Instead of choosing to cross the ocean to attack us, it is better to attack the countries near them!"

“But what if they conquered all the nearby countries?”

Yu Qian asked at this time, as the prime minister, of course, he couldn't stand there like a wood at this time, and Emperor Jingtai didn't seem to be angry, which means that things were turning a little bit. At least he was very willing to listen to Jiang Lang's reasons!

"This is also the second point I want to say, balance!"

Jiang Lang continued, "They have advanced weapons and of course they can conquer nearby countries, but you have forgotten that who sold their weapons to them? We can actually sell them weapons to them, and we can also sell them to other countries. In this way, they will also meet opponents. As long as we maintain the supply of weapons on both sides and make them equal, they will not occupy the other side. As long as we fight, there will be weapons sold. This sale will naturally be made in silver. Moreover, we not only make their money, but also in other countries! They can't even conquer their neighbors, and there is still time to conquer us? Isn't that a fool?"

Jiang Lang said it very easily. Only with war can we sell weapons. Every year, weapons sales are definitely a very scary income!

When Emperor Jingtai heard this, he felt that he had such a little meaning. He didn't even beat his neighbors, and that idiot traveled across the ocean to beat his country!

So, he couldn't help but nodded slightly!

Jiang Lang, who has been paying attention to the performance of Emperor Jingtai, suddenly felt that this was a signal, so he continued to say, "Other point, the reason why our u weapons are constantly emerging is that we have a very complete system, which includes the research and update of materials for casting weapons, weapon design, weapon manufacturing, weapon experiments, and weapon production. I think it took us a lot of time to build this system, and it cannot be said that it is completely perfect. Many places are still being transformed. There are problems in one link that have a great impact on the equipment of weapons. There are many scholars supporting these systems, but they do not have our system, and some of them have no way to imitate the materials of weapons at all. As long as these formulas do not reveal our weapons, our weapons are always better than their imitation.

, So even if they use our weapons to study and reach our level, it is definitely not a very easy task. Another point is that the weapons we sell them should be the weapons we eliminated! You should know that the weapons we eliminated are all advanced weapons for them, so they are much worse than us in equipment. Even if they are imitation production, perhaps partially improved, but the production is still the weapons we eliminated. Moreover, we are also improving during this period, and new weapons have emerged. There is a saying that by fighting to support war. Through their war, we can get a large amount of silver, and these silver can be used to develop new weapons, which can save a lot of expenses for the court. And this is also a cycle. As long as they keep buying weapons, we can constantly research new weapons! And their weapons are always the weapons we eliminate!"

Emperor Jingtai nodded again. It seemed to work. After pondering for a moment, he said: "But now that they are fighting, wouldn't we destroy this balance when we give them weapons!"

Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "At first, we could only give them a small amount of weapons. These weapons are not large in number and have very limited impact on the war. However, we can let their opponents know that they have such weapons, so they will also investigate. If the investigation is clear, if they want to get such weapons, they can only come to us to buy them. In this way, we can give them a little more so that they can gain a certain advantage in the war. In this way, their opponents will have a disadvantage. If they want to win the war, they can only buy more weapons from us, and so on. We have endless business and endless weapons. The most important thing is that weapons are sold to the country, not to ordinary people. Only we have this weapon, so we can set the price ourselves, without considering their feelings at all, even if it is a sky-high price!"
