Chapter 595: Planting Flags And Erecting Monuments, Killing First And Reporting Later, The Right To
After roaring silently in his heart, Prince Zhu Biao calmed down again, looked up at Yan Changqing and sighed deeply:
"Continue to give priority to allowing the people of Ming Dynasty to eat meat every now and then. As for spices, let's wait for another two years!!!"
Prince Zhu Biao still clearly distinguishes between spices and sea fish.
There is not enough spices, and the people of the Ming Dynasty only have insufficient seasonings.
But there is not enough fish in the sea, and it is difficult for the people of the Ming Dynasty to have enough meat to eat.
When food and clothing have not yet been completely solved, we do not think about how to ensure that the people have enough food and meat.
Instead, think about whether the food tastes good or not. This is more or less why not eat minced meat.
As a superior, the most taboo thing is not to eat minced meat!!!
After sighing, Prince Zhu Biao seemed to have thought of something again. He raised his head again and looked at Yan Changqing and asked:
“I wonder if temporarily stopping the boat to dock for a while will have any impact on salvaging and catching marine fish?!!”
"If it has any impact, then sell it and move on!!!"
"If it doesn't matter, I want to spend some time on the Spice Islands!!!"
After all, he still had some doubts about the Spice Islands mentioned by Yan Changqing, and he couldn't let go. He wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Yan Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly, then nodded and said:
"It's okay. If Your Highness is interested, we can stay here for an hour to rest!!!"
"However, there is no port on the Spice Islands, and battleships cannot dock on the shore. I will need to transfer to a small boat like a wave boat to go ashore!!!"
Prince Zhu Biao nodded, expressing his understanding and obeying all arrangements of Yan Changqing.
Then Yan Changqing looked at Xin Guo Gong Tang He who was aside. Immediately Xin Guo Gong Tang He ordered the messengers to go down and repair on the spot for an hour.
Then, soon a wave boat came to the side of the Hongwu battleship.
Yan Changqing, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xiongying, Xin Guogong Tang He and others climbed the rope ladder from the battleship to the wave boat, and finally everyone took the wave boat ashore.
Prince Zhu Biao stepped on the beach on the shore and glanced around casually. When he saw something on the beach not far away, he couldn't help but pause, and then walked quickly towards it.
Yan Changqing, Zhu Xiongying, Xin Guogong Tang He, as well as a group of guards and naval officers who were escorting them did not know why, but they also followed quickly.
Then I saw Prince Zhu Biao holding a gray-white lump the size of a football in his hands and looking at it carefully.
Prince Zhu Biao turned to look at Yan Changqing, Zhu Xiongying, Xin Guogong Tang He and others who were following him, and said with a complicated expression:
“This is ambergris, and it’s High Grade ambergris!!!”
Although when he heard Yan Changqing's introduction before, he knew that there were many spices on the Spice Islands in front of him.
But as soon as he landed, he picked up a piece of High Grade Ambergris directly on the beach, which shocked Prince Zhu Biao.
This so-called Spice Islands is so outrageous!!!
The Duke of Xin, Tang He, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he heard this.
He also knew about the Spice Islands. He had heard Yan Changqing talk about it before.
But he never thought about the so-called Spice Islands, how outrageous!!!
After all, he had been busy commanding the Ming Navy fleet to salvage and fish before, and had never been to the so-called Spice Islands.
As for Yan Changqing, although he was surprised when he saw the piece of ambergris on Prince Zhu Biao's hand, he could understand and accept it.
After all, ambergris itself is a secretion excreted from the intestines of sperm whales, and ambergris is lighter than sea water and will not sink into the water.
Therefore, it is normal for some ambergris floating in the sea to be pushed to the coastal beach under the influence of sea waves.
However, because there are either savages and natives on Sailan Island and the surrounding Maluku Islands, or there are simply no people at all.
So even if there was ambergris pushed to the beach on the coast, no one would pick it up.
Finally, at this moment, it fell into the hands of Prince Zhu Biao.
Then everyone searched around on the beach and found three pieces of High Grade ambergris of different sizes.
The big one is about one-third the size of the piece in Prince Zhu Biao's hand; the small one is about the size of a fist.
After that, Prince Zhu Biao and others, escorted by Jin Yiwei and naval officers, simply entered the periphery of the island to collect spices.
In less than half an hour, Prince Zhu Biao and others, as well as a group of royal guards and naval officers, were either carrying a large bag of spices or holding a large bag of spices.
It can be said that everyone came out with a lot of spices.
After putting everyone's spices on the open wave boat, Prince Zhu Biao stood on the coast and looked back at the Spice Islands with an extremely complicated expression.
For the first time, he knew that what Yan Changqing said was everywhere was not an exaggerated adjective, but a truly realistic description!!!
Cloves, cinnamon, star anise, cumin, bay, ginger and other spices are really everywhere!!!
The reason why they came out in less than half an hour was simply because they didn't bring many bags and couldn't hold many spices.
They could only withdraw after filling their trouser pockets, pockets, and bags made simply from cloaks and coats.
If Yan Changqing hadn't said that he would continue to salvage and fish, Prince Zhu Biao would have really wanted to carry ten or eight more bags to the island to pick up spices!!!
Of course, he was not the only one who had such an idea. Duke Xin Guo Tang He, as well as other Jin Yiwei and naval officers who also went to the Spice Islands for the first time, also had the same idea.
After all, picking up spices is picking up money, and who wouldn’t be happy picking up money?!
Prince Zhu Biao, who kept thinking silently in his heart that sea fish is important, sea fish is important, and sea fish is important, finally suppressed his thoughts of continuing to go to the island to collect spices.
…………Please give me flowers………………
Then Prince Zhu Biao looked at Xin Guogong Tang He and said:
"Plant the flag of Ming Dynasty here!!!"
"Every time you go out to sea to fish, you must come here and take a look to see if the Ming Dynasty flag has been removed!!!"
"Once it is pulled out, it means someone discovered this place and even occupied it!!!"
"I act on behalf of the emperor and give you the right to kill first and then report, and to start a war without authorization!!!"
"Whoever occupies the Spice Islands of the Ming Dynasty, you will all be killed by your own hands!!!"
At the end of the story, Prince Zhu Biao's usually gentle face also showed a rare murderous side.
"Yes, Your Highness!!!"
The Duke of Xin, Tang He, and all the naval officers knelt down on one knee, saluted and accepted orders.
Then Prince Zhu Biao looked at the chamberlain beside him. The chamberlain immediately took out the scroll, writing brush, and inkstone from the inside of his sleeve robe, and respectfully presented them to Prince Zhu Biao.
Prince Zhu Biao directly used seawater to ink, and wrote a decree on the spot that allowed the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty navy to kill first and then report, and start a war without permission for the Spice Islands.
Then he stamped his prince's seal and handed it to the Ming Dynasty navy represented by Xinguo Gonghe to straighten the seal.
Tang He carefully accepted the edict written by Prince Zhu Biao. Perhaps others might suspect that Prince Zhu Biao did not have the power to act on behalf of the emperor.
But as the Duke of the country, he knew very well that Prince Zhu Biao really had this power!!!
Even if this prince's edict is presented to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang does not see any harm to the Ming Dynasty, then Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang will basically acquiesce in the legitimacy of this edict!!!
This means that although this edict is not an imperial edict, it is basically no different from an imperial edict.
As long as the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang is still on the throne, and if the prince Zhu Biao succeeds in the future, then this decree will be the confidence of Damingshui!
Then, Prince Zhu Biao personally planted the flag of the Ming Dynasty deeply on the coast of the island.
In the end, Prince Zhu Biao was still dissatisfied and ordered his soldiers to find a slightly flat half-man-high sea stone, move it to the bottom of the Ming Dynasty flag, and write on it:
"This place and other islands belong to the Ming Dynasty!!!"
"Anyone who sets foot on the territory of the Ming Dynasty without authorization will be punished by all nine tribes!!!"
"Prince Zhu Biao of the Ming Dynasty, please!!!"
After planting flags and setting up monuments, Prince Zhu Biao reluctantly boarded the battleship Hongwu, and then watched the Spice Islands getting further and further away from him, until they finally disappeared into the vast sea.
