Outside the Grand Governor's mansion, Zhang Yida paced back and forth. He sent many gifts, and finally opened up the relationship and was able to receive Zhao Ming.

Zhang Yida was actually quite confused about whether he had made a world of world in Southeast Asia, a beautiful wife and concubine, and a huge family fortune, following the steps of Zhao Dashui, shed blood for the world and devoted his life.

Men all want to make achievements, but they can't bear to give up their thriving career.

Just as he was struggling, a soldier came over from the door of the mansion, "The Duke wants to see you!"

Zhang Yida was excited and immediately tidied up his clothes when he heard the greeting. He followed the soldiers into the mansion and came to the festival hall. He saw Zhao Ming sitting upright in front of him.

"See the Duke of the State in a humble position!" Zhang Yida hurriedly saluted.

Zhao Ming stood up with a smile, turned to Zhang Yida, helped him up, and looked at him, "Xiao Zhang, do you want to see me?"

Zhang Yida was busy and ready to salute, but Zhao Ming waved his hand and said, "I know your purpose, so you don't have to worry. The camphor business was discovered by you, so you continue to do it. Not only will I not be jealous, but I will also give you support."

Zhang Yida didn't expect Zhao Ming to say this, and for a moment he touched his head awkwardly. Zhao Ming continued: "Have you read the "Fuxing News"?"

Zhang Yida shook his head. He couldn't read a lot of big words, so he could not read any newspapers. "Report to the Duke, he was humble and ignorant."

Zhao Ming patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Xiao Zhang, your awareness still needs to be improved. Even if you can't read, you should be read to you. Otherwise, if you don't understand the government's policies, how to become bigger and stronger, you will suffer in the future. Recently, a message was published in the "Fuxing News" that our Donghai Town will hold an expo in Tamsui. At that time, businessmen from all over the world will come to purchase goods. You go to sign up and bring camphor to the exhibition, and you will definitely get a large number of orders."

Zhang Yida also heard some news, but it did not attract attention. Now, when Zhao Ming mentioned it, he immediately reacted.

This is an opportunity for him. If his competitors learn about this news and get a large number of orders, his career will be ruined.

"I thanked the Duke for the advice!" Zhang Yida hurriedly said: "I am willing to give 30% of the benefits to the Duke."

Zhao Ming waved his hand, "There is no need for this set. You can take back the things you gave before. Doing business under my rule, you just need to abide by the law and pay taxes according to regulations."

To develop business, we must have a good business environment and an honest and efficient government office is one of the necessary conditions for the rapid development of business.

Although the water is very likely to be clear, if the government takes charge of every link, the efficiency of work is very low. If you take half of the procedures for a person, it will take you for a year or two, and then business will be difficult to develop.

As Zhao Ming spoke, soldiers had already brought up several trays. In recent days, Zhang Yida sent gifts to deal with some contacts everywhere.

Zhang Yida was ashamed, and Zhao Ming patted his shoulder, "Xiao Zhang, if you want to see me in the future, come to the Grand Governor's Office directly, and don't take these evil paths again."

Zhao Ming waved his hand, "You go back. During the expo, you should choose the best camphor. It is best to give your camphor a name and register a trademark to make a name for yourself."

After saying that, Zhao Ming turned around and entered the inner hall. Zhang Yida looked at Zhao Ming's back and sighed in his heart that the Duke of the Kingdom is really a mysterious man and a hero of the world.

When Zhao Ming summoned merchants to prepare for the expo, the fleet heading to Japan had already begun to assemble.

Wang Jiaqin was ordered to prepare for the fleet to Japan. In a few days, the first ten lucky ships to go were ready.

On the Tamsui Guard and Navy gunship, Wang Jiaqin found Zhou Hezhi.

Zhou Hezhi was in her thirties and was proficient in martial arts. She used to be a hero and righteous person, and was specialized in robbing the rich and helping the poor. She became a famous "Thief of the Ocean". She had been a pirate and sold stolen goods in Nagasaki. She was a better understanding of Japan.

Later, when the Qing army entered the pass, Zhou Hezhi accepted Zhao'an. It turned out that after Zhao Ming annexed the Zhoushan tribe under Huang Bingqing, he became a navy general in Donghai Town.

At this time, in the cabin, Wang Jiaqin said to Zhou Hezhi: "General Zhou, Duke of the State knows that you are familiar with Japan, so he sent you to Japan. Are you willing to accept this task?"

Zhou Hezhi said without hesitation: "Dare not to obey orders."

Wang Jiaqin nodded with satisfaction, "The separatist state of Japan is complicated, and we can only go as merchants, and there may be danger. Japan is not a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and it is thousands of miles away from Taiwan. What really happens depends entirely on ourselves. You must be mentally prepared."

Zhou Hezhi said frankly: "This time I go to Japan, it is thousands of miles apart. Before leaving, I want to say goodbye to someone."

"It should be." Wang Jiaqin nodded and asked, "I don't know who the general is going to meet?"

Zhou Hezhi's eyes showed admiration, "Maybe the gentleman also knew that she was Kou Baimen of the Propaganda Department."

Wang Jiaqin suddenly realized, "It turns out to be Qinhuai~~~ This is really a hero who is sad to pass the beauty! Okay, the general just go, but you must return tomorrow morning and the fleet sets off in the morning."

Zhou Hezhi said goodbye to Wang Jiaqin, hurriedly got ashore, arrived at the headquarters of the Propaganda Department, walked straight into the yard, and saw a candlelight in a house and a beautiful figure printed on the window.

Zhou Hezhi stepped forward and knocked on the door. The door suddenly opened. It was Kou Baimen, the leader of the Kun Opera troupe who protected Zhao Ming from Fujian.

"It's so late, why are the general coming?" Kou Baimen was a little surprised. He had seen through men for many years and no longer believed in men easily. However, after Zhou Hezhi watched him act, she was chasing her, which slowly shook her.

After all, she is almost thirty years old and she longs for a home and a man to rely on.

Zhou Hezhi leaned against the door frame and was righteous, "I'm leaving! Let me tell you."

Kou Baimen felt nervous, "Are you going to fight? Is it very dangerous?"

"Yes!" Zhou Hezhi nodded deeply, "I may not be able to come back to a very far place. However, I dare not refuse to obey the orders of the Duke and Prime Minister. For the sake of the world, I must go."

Kou Baimen was a little sad, "General must take care of himself, slave~"

Zhou Hezhi took the opportunity to hug him into his arms, stroked his back gently, comforted him, "It's okay, I'll come back." Then he began to touch him randomly.

Before dawn the next day, Zhou Hezhi put on her clothes, glanced at Kou Baimen on the bed, took out a few silver notes from her clothes and put them on the table and said, "As long as one year, as little as June, I will come back."

As soon as dawn was dawn, Zhou Hezhi rushed back to the fleet, and the sailor immediately pulled up the anchor and raised the sail.

Ten blessed ships, nine full of tea, porcelain, books, and one full of silver. Yang Fan set sail and headed for Japan.
