Yun Zheng continued to draw the famous navigation line on the map with his finger and pointed it out to Emperor Chongzhen.

"They came along this line, and when they met weak tribes and countries, they went directly to rob them, robbing them of their gold and silver treasures, and those who robbed them were sold into slavery, and when they encountered strong countries, such as the Ming Dynasty, they changed to merchants to do business. The acquired wealth is then shipped back to their country. "

In fact, those Westerners also fought with the Ming Dynasty, but they didn't win. Emperor Chongzhen knew this, and it seemed that he was fortunate to have won, but the reason for winning was that there were too few of them.

"They, they shouldn't be able to grab much, right?"

Emperor Chongzhen thought that with such a few people, he couldn't grab much things.

"Your Majesty is wrong, they came all the way, except for Daming, they didn't dare to rob it, and the others were basically robbed. "

Yun Zheng pointed at Africa and said: "Your Majesty, this continent is still in the primitive tribal era, and it is a place where black people gather, that is, Kunlunnu, those primitive people who drink the blood of Mao Ru, can they defeat these Westerners with muskets and cannons?"

Emperor Chongzhen didn't even think about it, and shook his head.

"This continent is rich in rare minerals such as gold, silver, diamonds, precious stones, etc., and there are many resources, including manpower. They were all snatched away. Or if there is something lacking in the country, what is more profitable, they force the locals to grow without pay. "

Yun Zheng pointed to Australia and North America and said, "And it's the same situation here. Now, all of Europe, so many small countries, are encouraged to go to sea, to grab territory, and whoever arrives first goes to whom. "

Then Yun Zheng sighed and said: "It's a pity, if we open the sea early tomorrow, then there are still these places where Westerners are rampant, and the country will not run out of money." The land in Southeast Asia is very fertile, and they can grow grain three or four times a year, but they only grow it once to eat. When there was a famine in the Ming Dynasty, they directly transported grain from outside, or scattered people out, and there were people from the Ming Dynasty everywhere, and our Ming Dynasty could also be the empire on which the sun never sets. "

Emperor Chongzhen remembered that Yun Zheng seemed to have mentioned this matter before. Looking at these on the map again, I was a little puzzled: "Master Yun said that the sun never sets in the empire, why did they come from so many countrymen to occupy so many places?".

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen ask this question, Yun Zheng tilted his head and thought for a while, and then explained: "That's the case, they encourage the people of the country to go to sea, and if they find a place that can be occupied, they will entrust the person who finds it to manage, and this person's official position is called the governor, and this governor is the local emperor, who controls the local chief. So they occupy a place, it doesn't take a lot of people, to rule that place, and then lie there and suck blood. "

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately asked: "If this person is a traitor and establishes a country on his own, what should I do?"

"Impossible!".

"Why?".

Emperor Chongzhen asked immediately after Yun Zheng's words.

"Because the technology of the occupied territories is very backward, that is, the level of craftsmen is very low, and they cannot make things such as muskets and cannons, and even iron tools are scarce, so the governor rules those places and needs the support of his original state. If the governor wants to stand on his own, his country will cut off his ordnance, and he will be able to send an army at will. So no governor dared to stand on his own. "

Yun Zheng is purely fooling, the beautiful country was originally a British colony, and then it will stand on its own.

But none of this matters, what matters now is to make the emperor look outward.

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't sit still when he heard this, so he stood up and began to walk back and forth.

The martial arts of expanding the territory are what any emperor with ideals dreams of, not to mention that Emperor Chongzhen is in the stage of youth and enthusiasm.

But if the territory is too large, governance is a problem, and the way Master Yun said about dealing with other countries is also a means, but you can give it a try.

But now, at the suggestion of those civil servants, it is still the national policy of banning the sea.

Moreover, there are many pirates, and the Jiannu in Liaodong is rampant, and they are still in the land of Gyeonggi.

I'm even the heart and the power at this time!

When Emperor Chongzhen thought of this, a boiling heart slowly cooled down, and then told Yun Zheng his thoughts.

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter, not now, in the future, as long as we are ready, Da Ming, sooner or later, under the leadership of Your Majesty, we will become the empire on which the sun never sets, Emperor Qin, Han Wu, Tang Sect and Song Ancestors will all look up to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely become the real Emperor of the Ages!".

Emperor Chongzhen nodded vigorously, brilliant achievements were waiting for him, but he could not complete it by himself.

He stretched out his right hand to Yun Zheng and looked at him.

Yun Zheng understood what Emperor Chongzhen meant, stretched out his left hand, and the two hands were strongly clasped together!

On this day, a basic national policy direction after the Ming Dynasty was truly laid.

After the excitement, Emperor Chongzhen's mood slowly began to calm down, remembering one of Yun Zheng's rhetorical questions, which was a little strange, and asked, "Master Yun, is there really a fish the size of my Emperor's Palace in the sea?"

"Hehe, I scared him, the longest fish in the sea is thirty meters long, oh, probably, it is about ten zhang long, that kind of fish is called a blue whale. The whole body is full of treasures. "

"What's the explanation?".

"The whole body of this blue whale is basically meat, such a big fish, enough for many people to eat, and the fat of this fish can be used to boil oil like lard, which can be lit, edible, and used as a raw material for industrial production. "

Yun Zheng doesn't remember the specific function very much, but he vaguely knows that whales are very valuable, and people at this time don't know, just blow it, and no one can debunk it.

"Your Majesty, think about it, if you can catch more of these fish and transport them to the disaster area, will you be able to solve part of their rations?"

"Kind of makes sense. "

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, he ignored such a big fish, can he catch it now? Even if he catches it, how can it be transported inland, how can it be insured? In fact, there are many difficulties to overcome, or simply say that it is impossible to do it in this era.
