As for the royal palace, how much does it cost to build one?

Just use red bricks and cement. This kind of thing can be made in Liaodong, and the transportation distance is short, just go through Guangning, and it won't take too much effort.

As for money, the wool comes from the sheep, and it can be earned back. Zhu Youxiao was confident that it would not be a problem at all.

Anyway, I was planning to build them an unfinished house. If they saw an unfinished house when they arrived at the palace, would they feel comfortable living there?

Come, come, take a look at the exquisite decoration patterns. Our Ming Dynasty has so many fine goods and luxury goods, why don’t you buy some to decorate your palace?

If this is built for them, their money will remain in the hands of the Ming Dynasty's profiteers, led by the Ming Dynasty's Imperial Household Department.

This kind of public trade was basically monopolized by the Imperial Household Department, and it was impossible for others to get involved.

It would be the best if it didn't lose money economically and had a political effect. The title of prince was just a title to allow them to fight against Ligdan Khan.

You have to know that the Ming Dynasty only granted the title of king to the overlord of Mongolia, and not just anyone can get it. This was the case with the Shunyi King back then, and the same principle applies to them now.

With so many princes anyway, this thing would be worthless. By then, it would be like a world of shallow waters and many turtles, with big brothers everywhere. No one would agree with anyone else, no one would submit to anyone else, and that would lead to arguments, wouldn't it? The Ming Dynasty would have a lot more room to maneuver.

On the contrary, for Wu Keshan and Zhang Muhe, this was really good news. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty actually gave a princely title, which meant a lot.

This represents the orthodox recognition of the Ming Dynasty on the grassland. In the future, he will be a prince of the Ming Dynasty, which represents the support of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wu Keshan and the other man and said with a smile, "I intend to emulate the chieftain system of Yunnan and divide up pastures for you, allowing you to inherit the throne without interruption. If anyone tries to usurp the throne, the Ming will send troops to help you quell the rebellion."

Zhu Youxiao had a bright smile on his face and proposed a policy that was beneficial to them.

But in fact, this was just an excuse for the Ming Dynasty to intervene in the grassland.

After the grassland is designated for you, if you have disputes and fight again, it will not be your family affair, but the business of the Ming Dynasty.

If someone wants to usurp the throne, they also need the permission of the Ming Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, it is the use of force, economic infiltration, immigration to the border, and the policy of divide and rule. After all these operations, Zhu Youxiao didn't believe that he still couldn't figure them out.

Wu Keshan and Zhang Muhe looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.

Let the Ming Dynasty divide the grassland?

It seems that there is no big problem. After all, everyone's pastures are relatively stable now, and there is no situation of you invading me or me invading you.

If they wanted to fight, they could go west. Lin Danhan also occupied such a large grassland. If they had the strength, they could go there to rob him. They would not have to fight each other, but could live in peace.

This condition doesn't have a big impact, so I can agree to it.

Wu Keshan and the other man bowed together and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Anyway, it doesn't matter to them. Whatever you say is what the Ming Dynasty says. If we really go to war in the end, can you really come and intervene?

Stop joking. For all these years, when we were fighting, weren't you just clapping and cheering from the side?

The harder we fight, the happier you will be.

Obviously, Wu Keshan and the other man were not yet prepared to adapt to the Ming Dynasty, and they did not know what Zhu Youxiao was thinking.

Zhu Youxiao didn't bother to care about them. Anyway, the matter had been settled and his goal had been achieved.

As soon as I return to the capital, I will immediately organize a team of experts to come here to specifically deal with matters on the Mongolian grasslands.

This expert group is responsible for dividing, winning over, and instigating. In short, they do everything and are directly responsible to themselves. They are considered a management agency for the grassland.

The existence of such a special yamen can not only greatly improve management efficiency, but also directly implement one's own will, which is very good.

Naturally, others didn't know what Zhu Youxiao was thinking.

Sun Chengzong was a little worried.

Is this a bit too much?

Your Majesty, haven't you given Mongolia too many benefits?

If these Mongols turn against us after taking advantage of the situation...

It doesn’t seem to be a big deal. At worst, we can just defeat them. The Ming army is confident.

After Sun Chengzong figured it out, he stopped talking.
