The welcome ceremony was grand, at least for the natives, they had never seen such a grand scene. Of course, in their opinion, this was also natural. After all, these people were the officials from the Ming Dynasty of the Heavenly Dynasty!

After the grand welcome ceremony, we naturally had to kill cattle to reward these "heavenly soldiers" who came from afar, piles of beef and fruit, and even wine. Of course, there were also many dancers who danced and helped their sex. The atmosphere on the scene reached its peak with the cheerful music.

As a believer, Alauding himself cannot drink alcohol, but he is not a devout believer. Even his ancestors became believers because of the eunuch of the Three Treasures. As a believer, it is easier to get his support, which is also the fundamental reason for the establishment of the country of Malacca.

After several bowls of the top scholar Hong from the Heavenly Dynasty, Alauding, who was already drunk, looked at the wooden wall built behind and said.

"Small, I see the Heavenly Official, and I am building a city here. Could it be that I want to stay here forever?..."

Through Li Tianci's translation and knowing his problem, Shi Yiwen nodded and said.

"King, decades ago, when Your Majesty learned that Malacca was invading the Western Red and Massive Yi, he was very anxious. It's a pity that there were many things in the country back then, and he could not send troops to help you take back Massive Yi, so he has been blaming himself. To this day, Your Majesty is determined to innovate, so he naturally cannot tolerate Red and Massive Yi occupying the land of the Ming Dynasty and threatening my Ming ministers. Therefore, he was sent to build a city here, one to protect Sufan, and the other to send troops to recover Massive Yi when the time is right."

After learning what the Tianguan said from Li Tianci, Alauding immediately knelt on the ground excitedly and spoke a series of local words that no one could understand.

"Ah! The emperor's kindness is so good that the little minister has no choice but to repay the Ming Dynasty..."

Did he say that?

Shi Yiwen looked at Li Tianci curiously, looking at this guy who regarded himself as a Ming people. Seeing that Tianguan's eyes were on him, Li Tianci just smiled, and then said a few local words to Sudan.

When Alauding, who was originally kneeling on the ground, heard Li Tianci's words, he was stunned for a while, then nodded repeatedly as if he was agreeing to something.

"Report to the Heavenly Officer, since the army of the Heavenly Dynasty is to be stationed here, Alauding is willing to dedicate all this and Bintan Island to the Ming Dynasty..."

What!

Although Shi Yiwen, who had originally made up his mind to let the local chief ced the island first, he did not expect that the other party would be so well-informed and actually wanted to cede the land.

"Please ask the Heavenly Official not to refuse, this is a villain's wish!"

When he bowed over the head, Li Tianci said softly.

Almost the moment he saw the wooden wall, Li Tianci guessed what these adults who came from the Celestial Empire wanted to do? They were definitely not passing by here, but wanted to stay here for a long time. As Ming people who grew up here, he naturally wanted to see the Celestial Empire build a city here. That's why he had a sudden inspiration and changed Shi Yiwen's words by himself, and then suggested that Sudan offer these "small islands" to the Ming Dynasty, one to "drive tigers and swallow wolves" and the other to borrow soldiers to protect himself.

Alaudin, who had been worried about being robbed by the Aceh people for many years, would refuse such good things, and he almost agreed without thinking. In his opinion, being able to lean on such a big tree is simply God's blessing.

As an official of the Ministry of Rites, Li Duyi looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, and even murmured to himself.

"Just, that's all..."

The reason why Li Duyi was stunned was that yesterday's conquest seemed to him just a "farce", and the farce in front of him was even more unexpected.

The dignified earth king actually gave the land to the Ming Dynasty so willingly. This is too incredible!

Everything that followed was like witnessing an incredible drama for Li Duyi. He watched Shi Yiwen praising the loyalty of the earth king to the Ming Dynasty, but he expressed "justice and strictness" that he must not take advantage of the earth king, but the earth king was excited to send the land out. Recently, "forced by helplessness", Shi Yiwen expressed his willingness to buy these places for 4,000 taels of silver, so that the host and the host would be happy. Of course, he also saw how the earth king patted his chest and said that he would send 2,000 strong men to help the Ming Dynasty build a city. In short, the earth king in front of him was like a "fool", not only sold the land to the Ming Dynasty, but also sent the strong men to build a city.

This... is too incredible!

Despite his extreme surprise, Li Duyi still had to admit that this may be the cheapest "expanding territory" in the history of the Ming Dynasty. However, this place is so far away from the Ming Dynasty, how can the Ming Dynasty rule this land in the future?

"...After this city is built, the South Heaven Gate and Johor are neighbors. As the saying goes, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the two places are closely related. Protecting Johor is the responsibility of my Ming Dynasty. Those red and barbarian robbers only know how to rob, but do not know how to make a living will make this fertile land chaotic. When the Ming Dynasty official army arrives in the future, they will surely sweep away the filthy air here like a clear spring."

Seeing Shi Yiwen speaking so righteously, another thought emerged in Li Duyi's mind. Could it be that he was so concerned about this place... for himself?

Not just for yourself!

Finally, after the banquet, Shi Yiwen, who was already drunk, walked staggering to the beach, feeling the breeze blowing from the sea, and staring at the endless sea. Although he didn't know how big Bintan Island was, he could still be sure that as long as there is the "Southern Heaven Gate" composed of these islands, modern threats will never be able to come from the sea again.

"First it's the South Gate, then..."

"I've met the Chief Executive."

Suddenly, the words behind him interrupted Shi Yiwen's thoughts. He looked back at Li Duyi and smiled.

"It turned out to be Li Tianci. Oh, you have made great contributions to the court when you can sign a treaty with the local chief this time! When you return to the court, I will definitely report your contributions to Your Majesty. At that time, the court will definitely give you another reward!"

Hearing this, Li Tianci's face couldn't help but burn and he said quickly.

"You are kind to the head of the General Office. The young one is just doing what a wise man should do. He never thought of any reward."

"oh?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yiwen looked at Li Tianci and then asked back.

"Then tell me what is what a wise man should do?"
