After Zhang Junping said that, the heads of the ten major families were silent.

How could they not want the Treasure Island, which is ten times larger than the gold and silver mine reserves in Muping County?

You should know that in the past nearly a hundred years, the ten major families have mined a total of more than two million taels of gold and tens of millions of silver.

If such a large sum of gold and silver is given to a person, it will definitely be a huge fortune.

But don’t forget that these gold and silver are not alone, nor are they just their ten major families sharing the money, but many rich gentry and family members in Mouping County share the money together.

Moreover, the time span involves hundreds of years.

By this calculation, the money that each company can get is just that.

For individuals, no matter how many of them are, there are still many things, which is enough for the whole family to live a comfortable life.

But for a large family that has been around for hundreds of years, that's it.

Eat without meat, and discard it with taste.

He also has to bear the risk of being confiscated and exterminated.

This is also the fundamental reason why Zhang Junping chose to surrender when the ten major families were forced to do so.

If it is a family, it will be dug up more than two million taels of gold and tens of millions of taels of silver in a century.

He will definitely fight to the end, even if he kills the officials and rebels, he will do whatever he wants.

Now, Zhang Junping told them that overseas, there are more than ten times more gold and silver mountains on Fusang Island than Muping County, so how could they not be moved?

Mouping County has only mined more than 2 million taels of gold in a century. Although there are reserves, it is more important that they only dare to mine secretly and not to mine with great fanfare.

However, this problem does not exist on Fusang Island. As long as you occupy a gold mine, you will be able to mine it without any death!

The greater the ability you have, the greater the ability you use.

As for obstruction from Fusang Kingdom, the Song Dynasty in this era really did not take Fusang people seriously.

In the eyes of the Song people, the Fusang people were just a group of uncivilized, short and ugly barbarians.

"Master of the County Magistrate, if you leave it to us at this time, we will do our best to find the skilled craftsmen who build ships and build large sea boats that can cross the sea!"

"Um!

Shipbuilding is very important!

Fusang Island is just a small island. Although there are mountains of gold and silver on the island, after all, it is just a small island. How many can it be?

According to the master, there is a continent on the east and south of Fusang Island, which is a land that is many times larger than the land area of ​​our Song Dynasty!

These two pieces of land can be said to be full of gold, and you can kick out gold when you walk!

The master once picked up a piece of gold with a very high purity weight of more than 200 kilograms on it!" Zhang Junping smiled and continued to draw cakes for the ten major families.

"A land larger than the Song Dynasty can kick out gold when walking?" The heads of the ten major families' eyes glowed!

"This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the two lands are sparsely populated, with only a few indigenous people!

Where is the land of fertile oil? Just sprinkle a handful of seeds on the ground, and the crops grown will be higher than our fertile fields!

There are two types of grains called corn and potatoes, with a per mu yield of up to 100 stones!" Zhang Junping spared no effort to continue to bait the ten major families.

The head of the ten major families feels like he is listening to myths.

He could not imagine that there would be food in this world with a yield of 100 stones per mu.

"To be very disrespectful, if you can build a large ship that can be far away and occupy those two pieces of land!

What a thousand-year-old family, you can even establish your dynasty on it!" Zhang Junping was like a devil, bewitching the heads of the ten major families.

"The magistrate, the villain is not suspicious of the master! He is not even suspicious of the old god!

If it is as good as the magistrate said, why don’t the magistrate go by himself?”

"We are different! My Zhang family has been deeply grateful to the emperor since Emperor Taizu!

Since I became sensible, the word "Loyalty" was engraved into my bones!

I will never betray the Song Dynasty or the officials!

But, you are different!

You can go, go to hunt for gold, occupy land, and establish an independent dynasty!

You are free!

The reason I tell you is because in this world, we are not only Song people, but also black people and white people!

Instead of waiting for those two continents to be discovered and occupied by whites and blacks, it is better to let you occupy them!

After all, we are all descendants of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors!”

"Why didn't the magistrate tell the officials and let the officials send troops to occupy those two continents?"

"I have already told the officials that in the memorial I issued today, I not only told the officials about the mountains of gold and silver on Fusang Island, but also told the officials about the two continents!

However, you must know that if the court wants to send troops, it will involve a lot of things!

Especially when there is no confirmation that there are mountains of gold and silver on Fusang Island, they may argue with each other and will not be able to send troops in two or three years!"

"Does the magistrate want us to explore the way?

After confirming that there are mountains of gold and silver on Fusang Island, let the court make the decision to send troops as soon as possible?" The head of the Li family quickly reacted.

"Yes!

I am using you to be a pioneer in the pathfinding!

Are you willing to be this pioneer of path exploration?" Zhang Junping nodded calmly and admitted that he was using them.

Zhang Junping admitted that he would use them, but the heads of the ten major families were relieved.

In their opinion, this is right!

Zhang Jun gave them such a big gift for no reason, and they really didn't dare to accept it.

Now that I know that Zhang Junping is using them to let them explore the way, he feels relieved.

"Mr. Magistrate, it doesn't matter if we explore the way, but if the gold and silver mines we occupied were stolen by later court officers and soldiers, wouldn't we be in vain and we lost all our money?"

"Hahaha!

Do you think that I will tell you the biggest mountain of gold and silver?

What I tell you is just a relatively small mountain of gold and silver on Fusang Island!

The largest mountain of gold and silver will naturally lead the imperial guards and naval forces to occupy and mine!

There are many mountains of gold and silver overseas, and even the power of the court cannot occupy it!

So, don't worry, I still don't want to compete with you for that little benefit!" Zhang Junping laughed.

Only then did they completely relieve themselves and have a choice, and believe Zhang Junping's words.

The reason why I have a choice is that the word "loyal" that Zhang Junping said was engraved into my bone marrow.

I don't believe a word.

"Okay, the second thing is over, let's talk about the third thing!

The township soldiers in Mouping County have been vacant for a long time, and it is not a solution to be so vacant!

I know that you have a mine protection team in your hands, and now all the gold and silver mines in your hands are sealed off!

It’s useless to keep the mine protection team!

Just hand them over and enrich them into the village soldiers!

Don't worry! This official is just a temporary recruitment, and it can be regarded as training servants for you!

When your ship is built, these people will return it to you!
Chapter completed!
