    In the East China Sea of ??the Ming Dynasty, hundreds of large and small ships were sailing from north to south. Among these hundreds of ships, there were hundreds of lucky ships and sailing ships. They were huge in size and had bulging sails on their masts.

    The entire huge fleet was led by a fleet of more than fifty Dafu ships and sailing ships. The tall masts were hoisted with the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty and the flag of Tianjin Ocean Trading Company.

    More than fifty large ships sailed in a triangle on the water, like a formation of wild geese. The leading ship had the three characters "Taishan" written on its huge hull.

    Behind the triangular formation, followed hundreds of large and small ships. These ships, like the ships of Tianjin Ocean Trading Company, all hung the dragon flag of Ming Dynasty and the flag of their respective trading companies on their masts.

    Sangong Ocean Trading House, Zhang's Trading House, Li's Trading House, Northern United Trading House, Huishang Ocean Trading House The ships of the large trading houses also followed the ships of Tianjin Ocean Trading House in front of them in an orderly manner.  Triangular formation on the sea route.

    These large trading houses are all powerful, and they not only have a large number of ships, but also many large ships, at least medium-sized ships.

    Behind these large trading houses are many small trading houses or individual merchant ships. These small trading houses are often weak.

    Not only are the number of ships of a trading house small, but there are also very few large ships. They are generally medium-sized ships. You can even see some small ships following the team.

    It¡¯s really crazy. In order to make money in Nanyang, even small ships dare to go to Nanyang.

    Hundreds of ships, large and small, sailed together on the sea. The scene was very spectacular. Hundreds of boats competed with each other and thousands of sails competed. When the water and the sky met, seagulls kept chirping around the fleet and landed on each ship from time to time.  Rest on the boat.

    On the ¡®Taishan¡¯, Taiping Hou Du Mingen looked at the sea in all directions with a telescope, as if he was expecting something.

    "We set out in such a big way, they shouldn't dare to rob us, right?"

    Beside Du Mingen, Lin Shuhong put down the telescope in his hand and said with a smile.

    "I don't know, but I still hope they can show up. It's best if they all come and wipe out these pirates and Japanese pirates. Only then can this route be considered truly safe. Otherwise, if these pirates and Japanese pirates are on these routes, merchant ships will be in trouble in the future.  Those traveling from north to south will definitely be robbed, and then they will suffer heavy losses."

    Du Mingen put down the telescope and said with a smile.

    Pirates and Japanese pirates must be cleaned up.

    They pose a major threat to Ming¡¯s maritime expansion and global colonization. They will seriously affect Ming¡¯s foreign strategy and hinder the development of capitalism.

    What¡¯s more important is that behind these pirates and Japanese pirates are actually the large merchants and big families in the Jiangnan area. Attacking these pirates and Japanese pirates can severely hit these large merchants and big families in the Jiangnan area.

    After cleaning up these pirates, everyone can travel north and south freely and safely, and their monopoly will naturally be broken.

    If they want to share the benefits from maritime trade, they must support the Ming Dynasty's opening policy, instead of asking the court to strictly enforce the maritime ban as before.

    "If they don't come this time, they will have no chance in the future. When the new army is fully trained, my mentor will definitely form a special navy, and then they can hunt them down across the five great lakes and four oceans."

    Lin Shuhong nodded slightly, thought for a while and said: "I guess they will definitely come, and this time they will definitely come in full force. The pirates and Japanese pirates from the area around our Ming Dynasty will definitely come back."

    "I'm afraid they won't come. If they come, I'll kill them all this time and return the ocean to a clear sky."

    Du Mingen didn't care at all.

    This voyage to Nanyang can be said to be the Ming Dynasty's largest voyage to Nanyang since the Sanbao Eunuch. The scale of these hundreds of ships is comparable to that of Zheng He's voyage to the West.

    Of course, the purposes between the two are completely different.

    Zheng He's voyages to the West had many purposes back then, but they lacked the purpose of making money. But this time, many merchants went south to Nanyang together. They had no purpose, only one purpose, and that was to make money, make money, and anything else.  None of it matters, except for the money.

    This is the fundamental difference between the two.

    This will also determine that the two will have completely different fates.

    &The ships are almost all the same without any difference, which is very scary.  "

    "There are also ironware produced by the Miyun Iron Factory in the capital, glass products produced by the glass factory, cloth produced by the textile factory, etc. The things produced by these factories are not only large in output, but also of good quality. More importantly, almost all  The products are all very similar, it¡¯s hard to find the differences, they all seem to be made from the same mold.¡±

    ¡°This is the special place.¡±

    Feng Xiang stated his findings in one breath.

    ¡°This is what¡¯s special?¡±

    Zhu Benduan is still a little confused.

    "Technology~"

    "When I chat with factory owners and workshop owners in the Beijing-Tianjin area, I often hear them mention this word."

    ¡°At first I didn¡¯t quite understand what this technology was. I only learned about it once when I was chatting with a factory owner who also ran an iron factory.¡±

    "Ironmaking at the Miyun Iron Factory is completely different from our traditional ironmaking. They use blast furnaces to make iron. One furnace of molten iron can weigh more than 100,000 kilograms, and it only takes one day to make it.  , the iron produced is still the best quality iron."

    "Maybe you still don't understand this, so I'll just say salt."

    ¡°We are all in the salt business, and we all know that salt is boiled, but the salt from Changlu Saltworks is not boiled at all, it is sun-dried.¡±

    "A Changlu salt field employs tens of thousands of people, but the salt produced is enough to supply the entire Ming Dynasty, and there is still excess that can be used to pickle salted fish and sell it to North Korea and Japan."

    "We have all been to the salt field. The kitchen households in the salt field cook salt all day long. They can cook ten kilograms of salt every day."

    "This is technology. This is why we have never been able to defeat Liu Jin. Because mastering these technologies, Liu Jin is in an invincible position. In addition, he also dragged the emperor and the prince onto his ship. We cannot defeat him."  his."

    "Similarly, these large merchants and big families engaged in maritime trade cannot defeat him. They will eventually be defeated by him. I heard that the cannons produced by Miyun Iron Factory are very powerful. They suffered a setback last year.  Planted on this."

    Feng Xiang finished speaking with a smile. When he said this, he admired from the bottom of his heart: "This Liu Jin is indeed a disciple of a master. He is far beyond what we ordinary people can compare with. There is no point in fighting against him."  The advantage is that it is better to learn from the northerners and follow his footsteps, and there will naturally be endless benefits."

    Hearing this, Zhu Benduan finally understood, and immediately became thoughtful. After thinking carefully, he nodded and said: "I see, the recent slow sales of cloth in our Jiangnan area is also related to this technology, right? The cloth in the north  Not only is the quality good, but the price is also incredibly cheap.¡±

    "Yes, as far as I know, the textile factories and weaving factories here in the capital all use new textile machines and looms manufactured by the Beijing Machinery Factory. One person can spin several pieces of cloth in a day.  , how can our Jiangnan cloth compete with us?"

    "This is technology~"

    Feng Xiang nodded and sighed.

    ¡°But what¡¯s really admirable is that Liu Jin is actually willing to share all these profitable businesses so that everyone can make money together. This is the son of a master, and his mind is admirable.¡±

    "Now there are just some pirates and Japanese pirates. Just wait and see. If those pirates and Japanese pirates don't come, forget it. If they really dare to come and plunder our fleet, they will most likely be beaten to pieces.  "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
