Chapter 333 Dragon gives birth to nine sons
Since he was an uncivilized native, he was at most a tribe. Kangxi felt relieved and felt excited. Unexpectedly, Lao Sioux would bring such great news! There could be at least several provinces in the new continent overseas! In addition to the many islands in the South China Sea, it is enough to make him famous throughout the ages and surpass the emperors of ancient and modern times! [.]
After a while, Kangxi calmed down and was about to praise Yinzhen, he suddenly thought of overseas bans. No wonder Lao Shisi threw out overseas bans. It turned out that he had received news from Australia. Thinking that Lao Shisi was trying to surrender the prince on the condition of conquering Australia, he immediately restrained his smile and asked plainly: "Are you cheating the prince on Australia, or are you really planning to use the prince to conquer Australia?"
Yinzhen thought about this question for a few days. When Kangxi asked about it, he stood up and knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Go back to the emperor, I have a few words of great rebellion and punishment, and I hope the emperor will forgive me for his crimes."

Seeing Yinzhen so cautious, Kangxi's face became so serious, and after a while, he said, "Say."
"Emperor, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, but not dragons, and they are different. The brothers were born in the Tian family, and it is also a common human nature. Since ancient times, the power and wealth are tempting. How many people can avoid the common people? What's more, the nine fives?" Yinzhen raised his head and said loudly: "The brothers opened their teeth and built their own houses, and each had their own system. After a long time, they formed their own system, had strength and power. Whenever they had the opportunity, they naturally developed a spirit of fighting for the stock market. In terms of their original intention, the eldest brother and the prince are all talented and qualified people, but they lacked their nature. They were so imprisoned for life for life, which was a great loss to the royal family. My sons personally think that whether they were the eldest brother or the prince, they were not suitable for long-term imprisonment, and exile might be more suitable for overseas exile."
Kangxi was silent when he heard this. The reason why the throne of the sons was indeed related to the system of this dynasty was not a false statement. Those who dared to fight for the crown prince were the best among the sons. It was precisely because of this that he decided to change the system of establishing the crown prince.

Kangxi himself used the reinstatement of the crown prince. He felt a little guilty in his heart when the crown prince came to this point. After all, he had been betting on the crown prince for more than 30 years, and he was not without father-son love.
However, when Lao Sisi said this, Kangxi was still very unhappy and asked coldly: "You don't want to enfeoff the prince to Australia, right?"
Yinzhen's words were not only to give the prince and the boss a chance, but also to excuse himself for the throne. After hearing Kangxi's ridicule, he was very frightened and hurriedly replied: "The overseas franchise was a sudden idea. After careful consideration, he realized that it was very feasible. How to divide the feud depends on the sage of Emperor Ama, and the son minister did not dare to have any opinions. However, Nanyang and Australia did not recommend the feud."
Nanyang and Australia do not recommend banning? Kangxi was slightly stunned when he heard this. Didn’t the old fourteenth sound that he wanted to enfeoff the two islands in Nanyang? He couldn’t help but glance at Yinzhen in surprise. What was the idea in his heart? After pondering for a moment, he said, “Get up and tell me what you think.”
When he saw that Kangxi had successfully diverted Kangxi's attention, Yinzhen breathed a sigh of relief. After sitting down, he subconsciously glanced at the door. Kangxi noticed Yinzhen's small move and immediately shouted: "Li Dequan."
Li Dequan was shocked when he heard the greeting outside the door and rushed to respond: "Slave is here, what are the emperor's instructions?"
"Thirty steps away, keep a close watch!" Kangxi said in a deep voice.
"Zhe." Li Dequan hurriedly bowed and responded, got up and called the guards to stay away. Today is a bit strange. I don't know that these secrets of the Tian family are blessed.
As the footsteps were getting farther and farther away, Yinzhen said slowly: "Emperor Ama, Erchen initially estimated that Australia should have half the territory of the Qing Dynasty. This is a land without a master, and it is not taken by heaven, so it will be harmed by it. According to reports from ships exploring along the coast, they found a big fist-shaped gold in the transaction with local natives. Erchen suspected that Australia had a huge gold mine, which was very likely to be comparable to the silver mine in the Americas..."
Just by hearing these few words, Kangxi was unconsciously leaning forward and his heartbeat was faster. Half the area of the Qing Dynasty! A huge gold mine! A silver mine comparable to the Americas! What is that? I remember well, Lao Shishi once said that the West robbed 4 billion taels of silver in the Americas!
"Australia, we must occupy, and we must occupy as soon as possible. To take Australia, we must completely occupy the Southeast Asian Sea. Otherwise, Australia will be an overseas enclave for the Qing Dynasty, which is not conducive to the control of the court.
Now the Qing Dynasty does not lack silver, but gold is very scarce. Australia's gold mines must be in the hands of the imperial court. Australia has a vast territory and abundant resources. It is close to the Qing Dynasty and is also a springboard to America and must not be enfeoffed.
If Australia does not divide the ban, it is naturally not suitable for the ban. The ban is not only a channel to Australia, but also a channel to the West, Africa and the Mughal Empire. It must be completely in the hands of the court."
Kangxi heard the slightest head of his head. Lao Si Si still put state affairs first everywhere. Australia is indeed not suitable for banning, but must be firmly controlled in the hands of the court. He has suffered from the Three Feudal Rebellion. How could such a large territory be divided? Nanyang is also not suitable for banning. Lao Si Si has a good vision. If he wants to ensure control over Australia, Nanyang must be in control.
Australia's territory is so vast that how many troops will it take to send troops to occupy it? No tens of thousands of troops can be completely occupied? After the occupation, immigration is also a big problem, so how can there be so many people to fill it? Now Sichuan and Taiwan are vast and sparsely populated. Thinking of this, Kangxi couldn't help but frown and silently.
Yinzhen naturally understood what Kangxi was worried about, and then he said in a deep voice: "Is the emperor worried about the population?"
Kangxi raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "You have a way?"
"I have carefully considered this issue." Yinzhen said calmly: "If the population tax is abolished, the population tax will inevitably expand sharply. However, it will take fifteen years or even twenty years to achieve results at the earliest. At present, there is only one way to solve the population problem in Australia, selling slaves!"
Slave trafficking? Kangxi was stunned and asked, "Where did the slaves come from?"
"African black slaves and the Indians of the Mughal Empire." Yinzhen replied concisely: "If you use Indians to open up the fields, use blacks to mine. The navy can organize slave capturing teams."
Kangxi didn't say anything for a long time. This was not a good reputation. Although the Manchus did these things a lot before entering the pass, they have been in the pass for more than 70 years, and the arrest of slaves has disappeared. He is now determined to surpass emperors of all dynasties. If the news of arresting slaves and developing Australia came out, wouldn't he be criticized by those literati? What's his reputation behind him?
