Qin Yuan was amused by this stingy female emperor.
The overseas market is so big, can you eat it all by yourself?
What a big appetite!
The bigger the snow, the bigger the tone!
It’s really a waste of time to show you the world map and paint a pie in the sky for you.
Throwing all these evils abroad and focusing on internal affairs is the best solution to maintain long-term peace and stability in the Great Zhou.
"Idiot! You can't eat all the food overseas by yourself."
"Besides, without the cooperation of the noble families and ministers, what good would it do you to eat it?"
Qin Yuan shook his head and began to reason with Yan Jiaoran.
"You have to know that when this plan was launched, the ministers and princes were very unhappy."
"If you hadn't coerced them into paying you a sum of money, you wouldn't have been able to start this project."
"If you keep thinking about having the best food for yourself, can you still expect others not to cause you any trouble?"
"Be careful, once you do it, there won't be a second time!"
"Haven't you always wanted the gold and silver from the Japanese island?"
"You don't expect them to agree to your expedition to capture a tiny, remote island with just this excuse, do you?"
"Do we still need to defend against the Xiongnu in the north?"
"How can you possibly do that with just your wealth?"
"So, we must openly repair the plank road while secretly attacking Chencang."
"Using the promise of a magic fertilizer, we painted a big picture, and made them want to go sailing and explore the Western Ocean."
"I'm even submitting a memorial to ask for your approval."
"In this way, the difference between active and passive is almost immeasurable."
"Okay..." Yan Jiaoran was a little unwilling.
"Are you so sure that after going out once, they won't stop again?"
"Of course." Qin Yuan said slowly: "This is human nature."
“Once you go out and see how vast the world is, you’ll never be able to stop.”
"Even those who originally didn't want to go out would be stimulated and coerced into actively participating in the great voyage!"
After going out to sea a few times, whether they are princes or noble families, this will be the style of everyone's private chat groups.
A certain householder: "Hey, Mr. Wang, it's been a while since we last met. What are you doing at home?"
Mr. Wang: (Smiling) Nothing much, I’m just staying at home to enjoy my retirement.
A certain family head: What about your younger generation? I haven't seen them for a while.
Mr. Wang: (bitter face) I don’t know where these good-for-nothings have gone.
A certain family head: (Sighs) The younger generations in my family are the same. All they do all day is go to brothels to listen to music, and talk about artistic exchange. Alas, they are really good-for-nothings!
Another family head: (shaking hands) The boys in my family are all like this, none of them is capable of doing things!
Mr. Wang: (deliberately showing the big pearl on his hand in front of everyone) It’s okay, it’s okay. My children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Let them take care of themselves.
A certain householder: (surprised) Mr. Wang, why are the walnuts in your hand white and glowing?
Mr. Wang: (smiles slightly) This one?
Mr. Wang: (Spreading out his palm and showing the pearl.) My boys found it. I think it’s a big pearl from the South China Sea. It’s worth a lot of money.
Mr. Wang: (Shakes it in front of everyone) (Shakes his head and sighs) It's just an average pair. I have plenty at home. Do you like it? If you do, I'll give you this pair to try out.
Mr. Wang: (Proud) These boys in my family always talk about sailing and bringing mountains of gold, silver, jewelry, coral and jade home, saying they are showing filial piety to me.
Mr. Wang: (Sighs) I'm almost dead, what's the point of having these possessions? I wouldn't even let them keep them.
Mr. Wang: (clenching his fist) These are wasteful and useless things.
Mr. Wang: (sighed again, showing off the various glittering ornaments on his body) These guys are making trouble, saying that they have set up a country overseas with a million people under their rule. This time they brought a lot of treasures, and I wonder if they can exchange them for a king with a title.
Mr. Wang: (grinning) If Your Majesty agrees, I can go down and talk to the ancestors.
…
Obviously, under such firepower, the heads of the families in the group must have been silent.
I was even very angry and wanted to kill this alien.
I originally thought it was a grievance meeting.
So you, old man, turned your show-off meeting into a show-off?
No martial ethics!
As soon as these irritated family heads returned home, they would grab all the playboys in their homes and kick them one by one to go on the voyage.
In the future Great Zhou, such situations will definitely not be isolated cases, but will definitely happen in every corner of the Great Zhou.
After all, showing off is human nature.
Xiang Yu once said, "If you don't return home when you are rich and powerful, it's like walking in brocade clothes at night."
Translated, it means that you should not show off when you make money, because it is just a waste of money!
In this way.
Send out all the idle people in the Great Zhou to develop new shipping routes and conquer the world.
The people will no longer have to worry about a bunch of masters who just eat and wait for death and bully men and women.
A lot of positions will be vacant in the officialdom of the Great Zhou.
Why not?
By then, those princes and noble families who have conquered a large territory overseas will probably take the initiative to ask Yan Jiaoran to implement the feudal system.
Of course, even if Yan Jiaoran disagrees, it’s useless.
He could just declare himself king and start a country.
The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Can she still send troops on a long expedition?
It’s better to agree and everyone can save some dignity.
