Jun originally thought that someone was instructing him behind the scenes. After all, minerals are extremely important. He would rather not have these silver. He was the case. The contractor offered 15 million taels of silver in the mine for thirty years, which was equivalent to paying money to mine. If there was no driving force of economic interests, Zhu Jun really wanted to have any plans for them.

In fact, the people of these Jinling Machinery Trading Company have a bad vision. They can pay some money to get in the raw ore. However, although they pay money, they control the cheapest minerals in Jiangnan, thus forming a certain form of monopoly and squeezing competitors. The real money-making place is in terms of finished products such as steel and machinery. The market's initiative is not something that can be bought by silver. If you sell iron and buy minerals, it is the most important thing to make a favorable business opportunity.

Zhu Jun's face calmed down, he smiled awkwardly, and then said, "The people from the Jinling Chamber of Commerce are very smart. Tell me, how much money do you still lack?"

Yan Kou said: "Dozens of merchants raised a total of nine million taels of silver, but there was still a gap of six million taels. Now everyone is selling their property and lending it to relatives and friends. It should be fine if they have enough five million taels of silver. There is only one million taels of silver but they have to make another idea."

Zhu Jun took advantage of the situation and said, "It's hard for you. Why not do this? I'll take a million taels of silver from the treasury to subsidize some?"

"The villain thanked the emperor for his kindness on behalf of the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, and long live the emperor." Yan Kou was moved for a moment and didn't know what to do, and he was convinced.

Zhu Jun sneered: "You don't have to thank me. I have invested in the stock. I don't have much money in the treasury. They are all saved up every cent on weekdays. Don't you know that the Ming Dynasty's rule has separated the treasury from the royal treasury? I invest my son, and you will sell some of the shares of the various factories of the Jinling Chamber of Commerce."

Yan Kou nodded embarrassedly and said, "He never thought that the wise and powerful Emperor in the mansion report would actually play with the businessman's trick. But then he thought that it would not be a bad thing if there was a royal investment, so he hurriedly said: "The villain will go back and discuss with the merchants and authorize the transfer of part of the shares of each factory."

Zhu Jun nodded. He was extremely careful in investing. If he had not seen the merchants of these machinery chambers of commerce look at the long-term land and have a prospect after taking over the mine, he would never invest a penny of silver. This is his principle. He did not move the treasury money, but the treasury money in the treasury would save some money and invest more favorable projects. In the future, the interest alone would be enough for their squandering.

West Mo, Erut Mongolia.

There is no wind here, and the cattle and sheep are plump. Some of the ground is just struggling with weeds on the bare ground. The sun in the sky is as if it is about to shoot through the yurt on the grass. The herdsmen in the wretched clothes are numbly watching over the sheep. Only the gold tent in the center of the yurt looks extremely luxurious.

Erdan sat in the golden tent with annoyance. He got off the seat and was an elderly lama. He looked at the newly aged dihandan shortly after he ascended the throne with gray eyes. He did not speak.

"Thashidorji. If I had made another choice, I would never come back to the tribe. I would rather live a stable life in the temple. This place is hell. Everything makes me bored." Young Dierdan shaved his head. He was the sixth son of Baturhuntaiji, the leader of the Junggar tribe in Rut Mongolia. He went to Tibet to be a lama in his early years. Years ago, his brother Sengge was killed in an internal strife of the Junggar nobles. After obeying the Dalai Lama's persuasion, Erdan returned from Tibet. He defeated his political enemies and seized the rule of the Junggar tribe. Obviously, he was not satisfied with such a life. It was not that he was unwilling to enjoy the rights. It was not that he was too poor to enjoy the tribe in his place. The Junggar tribe had no fertile grasslands. There was only land near desert wastelands and wastelands. There was no cattle and sheep. Even vendors in exchange for goods were unwilling to come here.

The lama smiled and said, "Khan Dan. The Dalai Lama hopes that you can lead your tribe out of difficulties like your ancestors, like the fierce horses on the grassland. You have done very little land. You defeated Brother Yajia and avenged your brother. You have also been recognized by your tribe. One day, you will soar in the sky like an eagle."

Erdan muttered, "The same descendants of Genghis Khan. But our tribe lacks clothes, cattle and sheep, and everything is missing. Look at the Mongolian Khan kings in the south of the desert. They have luxurious clothes, groups of servants, and hopefully slaves in the future. They also occupy the most fertile grasslands.

"Galdan clenched his fists, and his eyes were filled with strong aspirations like an eagle: "Look. One day I will drive them out of the desert south. The most fertile grassland should be the bravest tribal land."

Tashi Doji smiled and said nothing, even with encouragement and expectation in his eyes. In fact, after the rise of the complacent people, the Dalai Lama in Tibet did not trust the Manchus. When Emperor Shunzhi ascended the throne, he sent people to Tibet to invite the Dalai Lama to Beijing. However, the fifth Dalai Lama received an invitation from the Qing Dynasty.

He just presented gifts to Emperor Shunzhi and greeted Emperor Shunzhi, but did not make an anti-rebellion. The Qing Dynasty sent a special person to Tibet three times in succession, urging the Fifth Dalai Lama to come to the mainland. The Fifth Dalai Lama once refuted to the Qing officials who invited him to Tibet, saying, "I won't go now, but I will definitely go." It was obvious that he was extremely wary of the Manchus. Although the end, the Fifth Dalai Lama was still in a hurry to go back and did not dare to stay too much. Although most of the Mongolian tribes advocated Lamaism, the Mongolian kings did not admire the Dalai Lama too much, and did not even greet him on time. A few years ago, there was an incident where King Heshuo of the Toutiaoye tribe beat the Lama.

In contrast, the young Galdan in front of him made the Dalai Lama feel much more at ease. Galdan entered Tibet as a Lama when he was young and highly praised the Dalai Lama. Therefore, the relationship between the Junggar tribe and Tibet was very close.

Tashi Dorje said: "Khan Dan, don't complain before the matter begins. If you want to do this, you should step up training your war horses and sharpen your war knife. When the time is right, you will use your courage to prove your commitment."

Erdan was depressed again. There were as many as 100,000 warriors under him, but compared to the southern part of the desert, the Mongolian tribes in the northern part of the desert were not worth mentioning. It was not because his tribe was not big enough, but because most of the Mongolian tribes in the southern part of the desert had formed alliances and received the support of the Qing court. Faced with this huge creature composed of contracts, he seemed to be alone. Although Tibet had the best relationship with him, there were too few monk soldiers in Tibet, and it was impossible to send troops to support his ambitions. To be more precise, the Dalai Lama could support him spiritually, but due to the strength of the Qing court, he would never dare to send troops to support him blatantly.

"Han Dan...Han Dan..." A call came from outside the tent, and someone lifted the sheepskin curtain and broke in.

"Huhat, what are you going to do?" Galdan had already slapped the table. The guy who broke in was his personal guard. Without his permission, Da Lala came in, which really made him feel embarrassed in front of the Lama.

"Broken, a Han envoy came and asked to see you. They were outside the tent. They brought a lot of goods, very exquisite, touched in their hands..." Huhat quickly knelt on his knees and said carelessly.

"The Han people's messenger?" Galdan said, and his eyes fell on Tashi Dorji.

Tashi Dorje said: "I'm afraid he is the envoy of the Ming Dynasty."

"Ming Dynasty? Haven't it been killed by the Manchus?" Junggar was too concerned about the grassland and did not understand the latest situation thousands of miles away.

Tashi Dorje said, "They got up and took revenge again. The Tibetans in Sichuan said that they won several battles and killed many Manchus." Tashi Dorje paused here and suddenly became radiant: "Khan Dan, this is an opportunity."

Erdan nodded, sat back on the sheepskin chair, and said to Huhat: "Go and let Ming enter."

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The Han people who came in were originally wearing a jacket and a melon-skin hat, and looked like a northern Han vendor. Before they arrived at the gold tent, they took off the melon-skin hat, put on black hats, put on Ming Dynasty official uniforms, and entered the tent carelessly.

Erdan glanced at Mingzhi and saw him standing in the tent with a majestic spirit and upright, he couldn't help but feel angry and wanted to give him a warning: "Bold, don't kneel down when you see this elixir."

”

The envoy raised the scepter in his hand: "This is the emperor's flag and is responsible for the mission. Wherever the flag and flag are there, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will come in person. Why not kneel down to welcome the emperor?"

Erdan was so angry that he wanted to make Ming a little ugly, and said angrily: "Come on, lock him up first."

Several Mongolian men rushed out of the tent to surround the Ming envoy and dragged him down.

Tashi Doji said with a worried look: "Khan Dan, don't you want to find an ally?"

Erdan said: "The Ming people sent envoys to join the army, obviously wanting to join the north and south to fight against the people. Now they have something to ask for me. I will give Ming a little bit of advice first, and wait until he surrenders, so that he can get enough benefits in the negotiations. Let the Ming envoy starve for a few days. This person is really hateful."

Tashi Dorji was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Our little Galdan has such a calculation, why worry about not being able to soar in the grassland, haha."

Erdan smiled softly and continued, "This is a great opportunity, but we have to see it, let's talk about it to me."

Tashi Dorji nodded. Tibetans were spread all over the northwest and were also distributed in Sichuan. Therefore, he had some contact with the Ming people and had a little understanding of the dispute between Man and Ming, so he told them one by one in this big tent.
