Shipbuilding cannot be formed in one or two days. Therefore, the most urgent task is to form an emergency fleet.

In the late Ming Dynasty, all maritime policies were actually useless. The fleets of large chambers of commerce and Japanese pirates monopolized almost all trade along the coast. Of course, the above three identities were actually the same most of the time.

So the first thing Lu Xuan had to do was to eliminate the pirates.

The most profitable transaction in the world is monopoly business. The premise is that the monopoly rights are in your own hands.

It is difficult to buy a ship that can be regarded as a warship. The major forces at sea noticed Lu Xuan's movements and controlled the transactions of all ships. Lu Xuan could not buy a ship even if he had money. They monopolized maritime trade for many years, how could they tolerate Lu Xuan intervening?

At the same time, the shipyard cannot be built. As soon as construction starts, either workers will have an accident or a fire will occur at night. The struggle has risen to the open. Coastal interest groups have almost publicly confronted Lu Xuan.

It's strange that these people are very brave. Lu Xuan, a general who holds tens of thousands of troops, dares to fight directly. However, when the Japanese pirates on the coast were raging, these cowards were like their sons.

This reminded Lu Xuan of a very sarcastic joke in his previous life. It was clearly because of him that he hurt you, why did you point a gun at me?

Because you are a good person!

A good person has to be pointed at by a gun?

"Zhao Jingzhong, you are now the commander of Jinzhou Guard. I'll leave this matter to you. No matter what means you use, the shipyard must be built smoothly, and the navy will start recruiting now. If you encounter obstacles, I promise you to use any means!"

If you want to regain the dominance of the coastal areas, you will inevitably have a bloody storm. The cruel and ruthless Zhao Jingzhong is the best candidate. Most of the chambers of commerce on the coast have complex interests in the court. This is also the confidence of these people to dare to fight against Lu Xuan. Unfortunately, they don’t understand that Lu Xuan doesn’t care about their backstage. What he cares about in his heart cannot be expressed, but they are definitely not included.

All the officials in the court were about to get crazy. First, most of Liaodong fell into the hands of a hunter for no reason. From then on, all the benefits and filial piety in that area disappeared. This made them feel hurt for more than half a year.

Not only that, the reckless man was unscrupulous in his work. In a year, he almost built the surrounding area of ​​Liaoyang into his own territory. Their minions were cut into vegetables and melons, and they were killed completely. The tentacles could not be stretched in, and they didn't even know what the hunter wanted to do.

Not long ago, when the court gathered troops to fight against the Qing Dynasty, the ministers in the court even hoped that Lu Xuan would not listen to Xuan. In this way, they had a real reason to impeach him.

Unfortunately, Lu Xuan led his troops to listen to Xuan and fought fiercely with the Qing Dynasty.

He even captured the Emperor and Si Beile of the Qing Dynasty in one fell swoop. Yes, the whole court knew that it was Lu Xuan who did it. But he kept Dorgon himself and sold the emperor to other generals. Only the emperor believed that Li Rubai and others captured Daishan alive, while Lu Xuan captured Dorgon.

Lu Xuan also wrote a letter asking to convert all his military achievements into money and materials to reward soldiers. Simply put, this dog's every move made the ministers feel confused. Will you become an official?

Just selling the living Emperor of Qing will make the court officials stunned. You, a general of Liaoyang, capture the enemy's emperor alive, is enough to be a marquis and minister. As a result, you gave up this credit for 10 million taels of silver. As a result, you were a hunter and short-sighted person, and you knew you wanted money.

However, just when the people in the court were mocking Lu Xuan, they received the news that this guy was going to rush to the commerce businessman. At this moment, they could no longer sit still. After some discussion, they sent a secret letter to Li Rubai and others, asking them to collect evidence of Lu Xuan's rebellion, find the right time to directly destroy the guy, and take action first and then report.

When Li Rubai and others received the secret letter, they looked sore. Did they even kill Lu Xuan?

This year, the Liao pay is not left, and the soldiers under his command are making trouble! This winter has to be paid for the winter with your own pocket. Not to mention letting the soldiers fight, it is already the limit to suppress them from mutiny.

But this group of people doesn't care anymore, the credit has been reported. After a winter, they will all be promoted. Whoever takes over will clean up the mess.

The imperial court rewarded him. According to Lu Xuan's request, military achievements were exchanged for rewards. A large number of silver, soldiers and livestock were sent to Liaoyang.

Wei Zhongxian did this matter himself, and only 30% of it was drifted away along the way...

Adding the money from Liao salary and selling the emperor's money. Lu Xuan accumulated nearly 20 million taels of silver in his hands.

With the money, Lu Xuan naturally left his confidence. So he waved his hand and held a banquet.

The banquet was very special because this time we were entertained by Portuguese, Dutch, British and other Western merchants.

This was Lu Xuan's helpless move. The shipbuilding could not be achieved in one day or a half. He could not buy a ship, and he looked down on most merchant ships. After thinking about it, these caravans from Europe became the best choice.

"Buy a boat? It's absolutely impossible. We can come here by these sea boats. This is the foundation of our adventure. We will not sell our own boats anyway."

"I understand what you mean. You are all great adventurers. But adventure is not the whole of life, right? Think about it, what are you taking risks for?"

"What do you want to say, General?"

"I want to ask you to see something."

As Lu Xuan said, he took the lead and walked out. More than a dozen Western maritime representatives also followed him out.

This governor of Liaoyang is different from other Ming officials. He is more direct, more passionate, and more willing to communicate with outsiders like them.

Everyone came to the outside of a newly built warehouse in Lu Xuan's yard. Lu Xuan signaled the guards to open the lock.

The soldier took the order and stepped forward, opened the four locks, unbuttoned the four iron chains as thick as arms, and then pulled the door hard. Then he turned around and ran away.

While everyone was still wondering, a silver light flashed in front of them. Well, it was not very appropriate to use it, because the next second, the silver light filled the entire courtyard.

Because a mountain fell, a mountain of silver.

Countless silver ingots poured down like waterfalls.

Under Lu Xuan's instructions, the soldiers opened another warehouse door. The colorful light filled the remaining corners of the courtyard.

It was porcelain, silk, jewelry, and all kinds of favorite goods from Western merchants.

"You all saw it. I have too much silver here, so many that I can't even install the house. And these silks, these porcelains, these teas, they are piled in my warehouse and are about to get moldy. Does anyone want to help me? Help me clean up these useless things?"

Grudge, it was the sound of someone swallowing.

"Mr. Governor, I have a ship that is being repaired by the port, but I am in a hurry to go home, so I can transfer it to you."

"Mr. Governor, because we lost a lot of crew members at sea, our ships are now oversold. So we can also transfer two."

"Governor, we can..."

"Governor..."

"Governor, we have two royal warships of the British Empire here..."
