Chapter 906 0901【Srivijaya】(2/2)
State Minister Barney said: "The Ming Dynasty's ships cannot always protect merchant ships. We can let them pass this time, and next time we will order merchants from all over the world to trade."
"We can't let go of dozens of ships of merchandise!" said the financial officer Bodhidharma Wangsha.
Barney strongly objected: "We have always had good relations with China. It was the Song Dynasty before and now it is the Ming Dynasty. There is no need to offend the Ming Dynasty for dozens of shipments of goods."
Bodhidharma Wangsha said: "So what if we offend the Ming Dynasty? If you pass through this strait, you have to abide by our rules. If we let it go this time, we will lose our prestige. In the future, there will be more and more ships that do not obey the rules."
!”
"If the Ming Emperor becomes angry and orders the port to be closed, our losses will be even greater," Barney said.
Bodhidharma Wangxia sneered: "The emperor closed the port when he was angry? I don't believe they have money to make. We are not afraid of the Ming navy coming to kill us. We can dispatch hundreds or even thousands of ships. The Ming army comes from thousands of miles away, and we are waiting.
That’s how to ambush, encircle and annihilate.”
"Beware of the shaman!" Bani warned.
Srivijaya has been in decline. More than a hundred years ago, the South Indians attacked the capital, killed the king, and were forced to move the capital to the current Jambei.
Then the Java Kingdom of Java rose, Srivijaya was forced to recognize its independence, and then the two countries married to maintain superficial friendship.
If the Ming Dynasty and the Jhabo Kingdom join forces, the Jhabo Kingdom will definitely be willing to stab Srivijaya in the back.
King Sanusi thought about it and finally made a decision: "When the Ming fleet passes by, just collect taxes as usual. There is no need to force them to buy and sell goods. When they return, prepare a gift for them to take back to the Ming Dynasty."
emperor."
Barney complimented: "Your Majesty is really a wise king."
Bodhidharma Wangsha looked very unhappy. As a financial officer of a country, he supported many merchants.
Srivijaya forcefully buys and sells goods from various countries, and all profits earned are distributed to Bodhidharma Wangsha.
This time he was released and he suffered a huge loss!
Bodhidharma Wangsha bowed out of the palace. He felt that the king was old and fatuous, and His Highness the Second Prince was the enterprising and wise king.
The Ming Dynasty fleet is just passing by, but it will trigger a coup in Sriwijaya!
