Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

In case those people from the Ming Dynasty ran away because they couldn't afford follow-up support, who would bear the responsibility?At that time, the opening of the Suez Canal will really be hopeless.

It is precisely because of this that I asked you to stop the Grand Vizier and let the Ming people know how difficult it is for them to contract the Suez Canal.

That's the only way. When they really can't bear it anymore, the unwillingness in their hearts will drive them to continue and let them complete the canal so that they can recover the cost invested in the canal and make profits. "

After explaining these few sentences, Ibrahim I lost interest in explaining again.

Smart people can understand it naturally, but those who are not smart enough can't understand it no matter how much they explain it. I can't waste my time on an eunuch.

After thinking about it, Ibrahim I simply ordered: "Go and invite the Grand Vizier to come to me. I should discuss this matter with the Grand Vizier."

When this sultan is really tired, it is exhausting.

It's too smart, too smart, Murad IV must not tolerate himself, he probably killed himself a long time ago.

It doesn't matter if you are too stupid, just because you acted too much like an idiot before, and you were almost killed in the end.

life is so hard...

After Mehammai mentioned the salute in front of Ibrahim I, Ibrahim I said: "Tomorrow the Grand Vizier will continue to propose the contracting of Suez to the Ming people, and then he will represent the Sultan Rejected again."

After finishing speaking, Ibrahim I pointed to the eunuch next to him.

Mehmet asked suspiciously, "Why?"

Ibrahim I did not explain why, but went on to say: "Not only refused, but will also reprimand you tomorrow, accusing you of violating the will of the true God.

Remember that these news must be passed on, preferably to the ears of those Ming people. "

Mehmet suddenly understood, and after showing a knowing smile, Mehmet stroked his chest and saluted: "As you wish, holy and honorable Sultan."

Ibrahim I laughed too.

The advantage of talking to smart people is this, you don't need to waste too much saliva.

Just a few short words not only showed his attitude, but also made Mehamati hint that he would be loyal to him, which is really a good thing that serves multiple purposes.

After thinking about it, Ibrahim I continued: "By the way, prepare some smart and studious young nobles, and let them study in the distant and mysterious East."

Mehmat first bowed in response, and then continued: "We also have our own school, and we have cultivated a lot of talents. Why do we send overseas students now?"

Ibrahim I shook his head and said: "What knowledge does our school teach? There are new ones and old ones, but they are all ours.

When they went to the Ming Dynasty, they could get in touch with different knowledge, and then they could bring this knowledge back and become our own knowledge. "

After a pause, Ibrahim I continued: "Now the hands of the Ming people have reached here, but we don't know anything about the mysterious East, which is very bad.

We and the Ming people are both big countries in the world, so we should communicate with each other instead of going through those Dutch and Spanish bandits as a transit—because they will take away a lot of profits in the middle, leaving us with only one A small part.

When we have contact with the Ming people, we can bypass them, and we can even do business with those barbarians in Europe directly to earn their silver coins. "

Without waiting for Mehamati to speak, Ibrahim I suddenly said: "Also, tell those overseas students that they must not only keep in mind the teachings of the true God, but also respect the customs of Ming Dynasty, and don't always act arrogantly.

From the fact that they were able to sail here, we can know that Ming people are not weaker than Europeans, nor are they weaker than us. "

Mehamati bowed again and said yes, then turned and left the palace.

The Sultan was right. A lot of benefits were taken by those Europeans, which should have been the part that the Ottoman Empire deserved.

It happened that this part of the profit that should belong to the Ottoman Empire was taken back through the incident of the canal.

Looking at the figure of Mahmat, Ibrahim I once again sighed: "Knowledge, even though it is far away in China, should be sought."

Chapter 674 Talking about a Big Deal

Mehmat was a little confused as to which Ibrahim I was the real Ibrahim I.

He is the one who is as stupid as he is, and he is the one who is shrewd. Which one is the real one?Playing crazy and acting stupid in an attempt to deceive Murad IV?

What should I say if I pretended to be almost killed by Murad IV?Should he act so realistically that everyone thinks Ibrahim is really out of his mind?

But it is said that Ibrahim is really mentally abnormal, how could he be so wise today?Is such a calculation possible for a mentally ill person?

I was a little confused by Ibrahim, but Mehamati finally decided to do what Ibrahim wanted. It can not only reopen the Suez Canal, but also reap a lot of benefits for himself. quit.

On the second day, at a meeting similar to the Great Ming court meeting, Mehamati once again signaled to his confidants to put forward a proposal for the Ming people to contract the Suez Canal, and Ibrahim not surprisingly ordered the eunuchs in the palace to veto it. this proposal.

Then in the next few days, the two sides have been arguing about this matter, and the news has reached Suleiman's ears.

The same news would also be obtained by the spies sent by Jin Yiwei to Cairo, and then spread to Li Chengyan's ears.

Li Chengyan was a little bit pained, so he ran to the edge of the Suez Canal again, and saw Suleiman again.

There are already many benefits promised before, and there are even many benefits that have been given out. These Ottomans are still arguing until now. When will it be the end?

Suleiman touched the heavy silver ingot in his hand and said with a smile: "Li, you can rest assured, I can swear to Allah that this matter will definitely be successful.

But now, you should calm down and don't act too anxious.Believe me, the Grand Vizier has gradually gained the upper hand, and the Sultan will surely agree to this matter soon. "

Li Chengyan nodded and said: "Actually, I also know that it is useless to be anxious, after all, such a big matter, no matter which country it is, needs to be discussed for a long time.

But it would be a lie to say that there is no rush.

Suleiman, do you know how much income I need to lose every day my cargo ship depends on it?It's all white silver, just like the ingot in your hand.

Moreover, I also recruited a lot of manpower, and I even brought a lot of slaves from my Emperor Ming to let them dredge the river.

You know, those Mughals are always lazy, their favorite thing is to be idle after eating, not to go to work.

However, this will make me suffer a lot of losses.Hope you can understand? "

Suleiman nodded and said: "Of course, I understand your mood very much, and I sympathize with your loss. But as you said, those slaves in the Mughal Kingdom, or slaves in any country, are actually This way.

What they like to do most is to be free after having a full meal every day, without working or exerting themselves, and then repeating such days every day, they like it the most.

But, Li, you are a businessman, and a businessman should behave like a businessman. When it is time to whip them, you should never soften your heart. It is best to kill a few, so that they know how to be afraid, and let them know that they should not disobey the orders of their masters. .

Otherwise, their performance will make you want to cry when restarting such a big project as the Suez Canal. "

Li Chengyan's money still played a role, at least Suleiman's support was not fake, although it was far from what Li Chengyan expected.

But Li Chengyan, who was backed by the Ming treasury and Emperor Chongzhen's internal funds, was least afraid of spending money, because the money spent could be earned back quickly.

Especially good things like Fushou Ointment.

After pondering for a while, Li Chengyan said: "So, can we come to discuss a business?"
