"There is another great event. I just received it late last night. I guess many people don't know about it." I glanced at the people inside. "Three and a half months ago, the third expedition fleet in Jiaozhi set out from Linchuan Port in Linzhen County, Hainan Island to sail eastward. After sailing for nearly three thousand miles, it boarded a large island. After their survey, it was confirmed that it was the Luzon Island I mentioned. In the next three months, a total of ten expedition teams were sent to the mountainous area at the northern end of the island for investigation. Ten days ago, copper mines were found in the mountains at the northern end of this island. It is estimated that it will definitely not be smaller or even larger than the copper mines in southern Yunnan. In addition, there are likely other copper mines in this area..."

The eyes of the more than ten ministers suddenly widened, and I continued with satisfaction. "This copper mine is accompanied by gold mines. It is expected that the annual mining volume can reach 10 million kilograms of copper and 5,000 to 10,000 kilograms of gold, less than a hundred miles away from the seaside, and there are rivers flowing through the mining area. Please note that this is only one of the copper mines on Luzon Island. In addition, I believe that at least two or three such gold-copper companion mines have not been surveyed by them."

Then, I heard the sound of everyone in the room pumping, almost purging the air in the room.

"Ten million kilograms, that must be at least 30 million kilograms. In this way, it will be 30 million kilograms, plus 30,000 kilograms of gold. Be good... Your Majesty, we have sent it." Luo Shixin's eyes shone and even shouted loudly on fire.

"This is natural, but don't be happy that it's too early. It will take at least two and a half years to achieve such a production." Seeing Luo Shixin screaming so loudly, I couldn't help but splash a small spoon of cold water over. "And at least ten thousand workers are needed."

"Your Majesty, this is easy to solve. Since the battle with Champo Kingdom in Jiaozhi Land, the guy Cheng Yaojin has captured more than 100,000 enemies. Although the newly occupied land also requires prisoners of war, it is really not necessary to use so many prisoners of war from now on. " Fang Xuanling blinked in a sinister way and smiled. Now, as long as this guy hears money, his eyes will shine.

Now, because he has been dealing with economic work, this famous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty in another historical time and space has become the best economist in our dynasty. Or, he has become one of the powerful accomplices of this prince's robbery of other countries.

"What I said before is for profit, but it is for the benefit of the country. Therefore, I think this is great profit and should be taken advantage of. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty said very much. How can we ignore the interests of the country and ignore the people's livelihood in the world?" Wei Yunqi first bowed down, and then one after another, one important minister in the court fell to the ground.

"From today on, the country that must be conquered by our China, and cut off all contacts with the country. In all the territory of our China, one should not allow a Japanese to enter the country. If there is a divorce, he should inform the King of the Japanese in front of him. Within five years, soldiers of the Chinese Empire will face the Japanese territory, destroy the Japanese territory, and destroy the country..."

"No" everyone shouted in unison. At this moment, it seemed that this place had become a military camp, and I stood on the campground of the military camp, looking into the distance, looking at the country that must be conquered thousands of miles away.

"But Your Majesty, those maritime merchants..." Fang Xuanling suddenly remembered something and asked at me hesitantly

I touched my chin and thought about it. "Well, business can still be done. After all, if you make money, why not? However, no Japanese are allowed to come to China with their ships. In addition, they can sell more glass, silk, and porcelain products to Japan. It doesn't matter if the price is slightly lower. However, it is absolutely not allowed to let people know that I already know this. Do you know?"

Fang Xuanling looked strange, and there was a little joy in his face and he left with promise. He left Yaoguang and I stayed indoors.

"Husband, are you trying to do it? Since you regard the country as a must-see, why are you still doing business with them?" Yaoguang said a little unsatisfiedly.

"Madam, business is business after all. In order to make money, those maritime merchants will still do business with Japan. Even if I, the emperor, say this, it is still unstoppable. So, it is better to be distracted than to block it." I said with a proud smile. "More importantly, your husband, my seaship caravan also needs to eat, and I like the gold and silver produced in Japan very much. You can't really not do business with this very close and rich country for five years, right? In that case, our fleet development will be seriously affected."

"Husband..." Yaoguang looked at me with his head tilted and his eyes tilted. "Why do I think it seems to be a more important reason for you."

"That's natural, madam, we are now people with families and careers, and I, as an emperor, can be regarded as the poorest emperor in history. How can I be embarrassed if I don't make more money for myself? You said yes." I looked at my cute and naughty wife with a smile and said righteously.

"I just knew..." Yaoguang rolled his eyes and said angrily. How could a smile between his eyebrows and eyes make people not moved? I took action, so I grabbed her hand, hugged her shoulders, and sniffed on her pretty face. "You are my wife, so naturally you should know these are."

At this time, a group of prospecting teams composed of fifteen prospectors and two hundred and fifty Chinese Revival Army cavalry had arrived in the area north of Hetao, and then began to head north, and then, they would conduct difficult and hard exploration of copper mines there.

However, with my guidance and clear distances and coordinates, it will definitely not be too hard, just like prospecting on Luzon Island, it will not be too hard. However, it is still quite hard in extreme climates.

Luzon Island is located in the tropical region with a very hot and humid climate. The place north of Hetao is at the end of the cold, but it still seems cold. However, it is also good for them to feel it. What is important is that more than 20 of the 250 cavalrymen of the Chinese Revival Army were drawn from the Intelligence Agency.

Of course, they went not only to detect the minerals, but also to me, to investigate the situation and information along the way. At the same time, they would also be concerned about whether the Turks were concerned about copper mines and use this to evaluate the attitude and intention of the Turks.

If the Turks were very perfunctory, it means that the Turks did not want or did not need Zhou Shaofan to do this seemingly favorable deal between both sides, because they were about to have greater profit methods, such as war.

If the Turks care very much and arrange it carefully, it will inevitably mean that they need these copper ores to turn into copper ingots and then trade them into iron ingots.

Of course, they will naturally distinguish, and more intelligence personnel will also distinguish. This is a disguise. If you want to confuse me, you still really want to get what you need through trade.

However, I really feel that the Turks agreed to sign a trade contract after such a long negotiation. In addition, judging by the current situation in the Eastern Turks, the Turks should not have acted too unexpectedly.

The movement in the south was indeed a bit beyond my expectations. When the Third Expedition Fleet confirmed that it had found Luzon Island, Zhou Shaoji, the commander of the South China Sea Fleet in Jiaozhi, immediately sent half of the warships, not only brought a thousand soldiers, but also sent three thousand prisoners of war.

These thousand soldiers were naturally used to guard Luzon and supervise these prisoners of war. These three thousand prisoners of war needed to build houses here, docks, and even cement straight roads were paved in the future.

There were Tumans on Luzon Island, who were the ones who led beasts and cannibals. So, five hundred soldiers were divided into the thousand soldiers, and they went deep into the forest, flattened a large tribe of nearly a thousand people, killed two hundred enemies, and all the others captured them and took them to the coast, making them part of the prisoners of war, and joined the construction army in panic.

At this time, General Qu Tutong finally arrived at Yuzhang County at the southern end of Poyang Lake, and further north was Jiujiang. However, General Qu Tutong knew very well that this was not the time to fight Xiao Xian, so General Qu Tutong would arrive along the east of Poyang Lake to the south bank of the Yangtze River, and then head straight to the south of the Yangtze River.

Qin Qiong's speed was much slower, or it was much more difficult, because the coastal areas were rich, and even if the rich areas had not yet joined any major force, they would prefer to squat at home and be a local emperor.

Qin Qiong could only walk forward slowly and hard, first talking, and then fighting, and then pacifying the people after the attack, and then march again. In this way, it was really slower than Qu Tutong, but there was no way. Qu Tutong's reputation was too great, so many cities, although they were dissatisfied, were able to attract their reputation and could only open the city to welcome them.

But Qin Qiong is different. Although this guy is also a general under my command, he has been fighting far away in Guanzhong. Therefore, his reputation is far inferior to Qu Tutong, who was so powerful that he was in the previous dynasty. No one in the world knows you, so he is not so angry about this guy's persuasion to surrender. He thinks that Qin Qiong is just a small lieutenant, and what extraordinary abilities can he have?

Moreover, these guys are used to being local emperors, so they are naturally not used to being their immediate bosses, and they do not want all the money and money that should be paid to the treasury.

Qin Qiong could only lift the sword again and again helplessly, and then put it down, so he slowed down his pace. Now, with the cooperation of the navy, Qin Qiong finally took down Nan'an City in Jian'an County without any bloodshed, which is the most famous port trading city of Quanzhou in the future, and continued to head north.

Du Fuwei is now in Jiangdu, and is located in Jianghuai, north of Jiangnan, and Dou Jiande and our Chinese Empire have an alliance, so that Du Fuwei can finally stop worrying about the Jianghuai land, but can focus on conquering Jiangnan and deal with Li Zitong, an enemy who will never stop.
