    "Your Majesty, a great victory, a great victory~"

    Xiao Huangmen came panting, holding in his hand the good news that had just been sent from Tianjin.

    Xiao Jing, who was beside Emperor Hongzhi, did not dare to neglect. He quickly went over to take it and handed it to Emperor Hongzhi respectfully.

    Emperor Hongzhi picked up the good news and read it quickly, and soon a smile spread across his face.

    "Haha, okay, Zhang Mao and Liu Jin are doing well here in Nanyang."

    Emperor Hongzhi was so happy. This good news was jointly signed by Zhang Mao, Liu Jin, Wang Shouren and Yang Yun. It will provide detailed information about the Ming army's war in Malacca and Siam in Nanyang.

    Almost effortlessly, he easily agreed to Malacca and Siam, forcing them to cede territory and pay compensation. Malacca would compensate the Ming Dynasty 17 million taels of silver, and Siam would compensate the Ming Dynasty 50 million taels of silver. If interest is included,  , a total of hundreds of millions of taels of silver were compensated.

    Coupled with the ceded land, Ming Dynasty has a land in the Malay Peninsula, the throat of Southeast Asia. With this land, Ming Dynasty can control Siam, Burma, and Cambodia, and can dominate Jinzhou and Java.  , Bo Ni, and the east side can also echo the Nanyang Province, and the entire Nanyang has completely fallen under the control of the Ming Dynasty.

    "Liu Jin is still the one who makes people feel comfortable when doing things. He gets the maximum reward with the minimum effort. No matter how much money he has, the navy does not have to worry about military expenses."

    Emperor Hongzhi was really convinced that Liu Jin would make money.

    Not only can he do business, but also wars between countries. In the past, it was a loss-making business and called militarism. But it was different with Liu Jin.

    Every time the war was fought, the maximum benefit was obtained at the minimum cost, and every time the territory was ceded and compensation was made, Emperor Hongzhi's pockets instantly became bulging.

    Now it¡¯s time to worry about the money in the internal funds. There is too much money and I don¡¯t know how to spend it.

    But Emperor Hongzhi now has a stupid way, which is to deposit it into the First Bank of the Ming Dynasty and simply earn interest. Emperor Hongzhi is very satisfied.

    ¡°Everyone, let¡¯s take a look~¡±

    After reading the report, Emperor Hongzhi also gave the good news to Xiao Jing and motioned for him to pass it on to all the ministers.

    Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, was the first to read it, and he also read it at a glance. He couldn't help but open his mouth slightly.

    "This Liu Jin is really like a goose plucking his hair. Wherever he has been, even if it is a mosquito's leg, he will scrape out a trace of flesh. The small country here in Malacca actually forced it to sign such an agreement.  , compensate Ming Dynasty for 17 million taels of silver."

    "How can a small country have so much money?"

    ¡°With all the elegance wiped out, the image of Ming Dynasty that has been operating for hundreds of years is gone.¡±

    "However, this is indeed a lot of benefits for our Ming Dynasty. With money, we can do things easily, and Malacca is a strategic location. With Malacca, our Ming Dynasty can control this choke point."

    Liu Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Only Liu Jin could think of such an agreement. If they went there, they would probably just reprimand them and then ask them to verbally apologize to Ming Dynasty.  .

    ¡°After all, for traditional Confucians like them, face is more important than anything else, and this is especially true for Ming Dynasty¡¯s face. As for other things, it is not important.

    Everyone read the good news one by one, and everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.

    "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty~"

    ? Then everyone quickly congratulated Emperor Hongzhi in unison.

    No matter what, this was a victory, a great victory. It not only taught Malacca and Siam a severe lesson, but also gained a new piece of land.

    Of course, what is more important is the huge amount of war reparations received.

    What is the concept of war reparations worth hundreds of millions of taels, including principal and interest?

    This means that almost everyone in the Ming Dynasty can get almost one tael of silver compensation from this war. Such a huge amount of wealth can be said to have made the Ming Dynasty rich overnight.

    You must know that in the past, the Ming Dynasty's treasury received only less than four million taels of silver in taxes per year. Now it has received such a huge compensation all at once, hundreds of millions of taels of silver. Although it has been divided and paid off over many years,  It was also enough for Ming Dynasty to continuously obtain huge wealth.

    In addition to land and gold and silver, Ming Dynasty¡¯s actions in Nanyang also greatly shocked the countries in Nanyang.

    Even the southeastern peninsula"The key is that in the future, compensation will be returned to the Ming Dynasty every year, so there is no need to worry about military expenditures."

    "Well, we must continue to expand the navy and the army. No matter how big the world is and how many countries there are, will we still be afraid of running out of money in the future?"

    Thinking of this, Emperor Hongzhi was very happy. He didn't have to worry about money. It was a great day.

    Think about what kind of life I lived in the past, it was very frustrating.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The palace is not willing to repair and want to do something. The minister immediately gave back everything he had when he said he didn't have any money.

    "After defeating the countries in the Southern Ocean, the next step is to deal with the countries in the Western Regions."

    Soon, Emperor Hongzhi looked at the huge world map, and also looked at the Western Regions.

    "It is not difficult to conquer the Western Regions. The key is how to govern the Western Regions in the future."

    "The population is too small, and they are unwilling to migrate outside. This is a big problem. Without people, there is no way to rule these places stably. There are too many places that need immigration." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel  .com
