I became the son of Renzong

Then, no matter whether it is the Military Weapons Supervision or the Money Supervision here, the imperial court is staring at it. The houses have already been sold, and it is impossible to justify not building them.

The only thing is the shipping route.

Zhao Xi knew that this was forcing him to continue with the original water transportation, so that he could have a legitimate claim of attrition.

"The copper stored in the military department should be almost consumed, right?"

Chatting is a way to relax when dealing with official business, especially talking about things that you can see clearly but others worry about.

Just like now.

"Ming Zhong knows a lot about military inspectors..."

Zeng Gongliang is a good man, he couldn't bear to see His Highness the Prince's joke like this.

"Four more tiger crouching cannons were cast, and the Military Weapons Supervision Department doesn't have much copper reserves. Judging by the new coins issued by the court, there should be very few left."

Zeng Gongliang did understand that the third department's case was in charge of military equipment construction, and before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince delineated military equipment construction, it was Zeng Gongliang's business scope.

"There are no new coins in the East Palace?"

"Even if there are, there are only a few. And Liu Yi in Neiyuan sells new sweets, and he also asks for new coins. If you want to come to the East Palace, there is still a shortage of new coins."

"That is to say, is the memorial of the new Qianjian accurate?"

"Absolutely! The people outside Beijing are already quarreling. Now that the Qianjian has been completed, the Dongchuan Copper Mine has not been moved..."

Fu Bi wanted to continue, and besides, it should be the purpose of some people.Just paused...

"How much loss can be tolerated when transporting new coins by water?"

Anyone can see it, and it should be obvious.Wen Yanbo took Fu Bi's words and simply broke the news.

This is obviously forcing His Royal Highness to continue on the original route.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also sent someone to ask about it, but Wen Yanbo did not agree.He didn't think His Royal Highness's plan was feasible, and he didn't want to get stuck with those along the water transport route either.

So I shirked it by investing in wool spinning.

But he is not prepared to allow Water Transport to play too much on the new currency.There must be a limit to everything, especially now that the mintage of new coins has not increased and the market is tight, the court must not enlarge the opening.Otherwise, the court will be in chaos again.

"Half success! As a last resort, the state capital along the road and the forbidden army can intervene..."

Although Fu Bi said so, he also knew that it might be difficult.

Since the beginning of the dynasty, the water transportation of the Bianhe River has been independent of the government at all levels, and has been involved in many states along the road.

Not to mention the fact that there are independent water transport generals, even the battlegrounds along the road are in response to water transport orders... after all, they rely on water transport for their food.

Therefore, Fu Bi also knew that even if the state capital along the road and the forbidden army were mixed, it would only increase the loss in the end.

Alas... Guochao is everyone's Guochao, but they don't take it seriously as their own business.

The court agreed and cooperated quite well, and directly allocated some copper ingots from the general supervisor.

This is the most suitable method, and it is most suitable for Qian Jian to receive the copper ingots directly.

But Zhao Xi really didn't like the copper ingots refined by Guochao Bronze Supervisor.

It is these copper ingots that must be returned to the furnace for re-refining when they arrive at Qianjian.Therefore, when Zhao Xi was preparing to build the Military Weapons Supervision and the Money Supervision, he directly built a systematic and complete production chain.

This is why Li Jie is interested.

This is not building a workshop at all, it is more like building a new city.

"How long can it last?"

Time is tight, really tight.Working with His Highness the Crown Prince seems to be on the road every day, and I don't want the scholar-bureaucrats of the country to live a leisurely life.

"Your Highness, it can last for half a year, or it may not be. Nowadays, craftsmen are not familiar with the overall manufacturing process. Once they are proficient, it may only take four to five months."

Really tight!

"Ming Zhong, can you get out of the construction of the Military Weapons Supervisor?"

The track is newly built, Zhao Xi still wants Li Jie to take the lead, and Su Song has to stay here to take care of it.Many of the facilities were created by him. If others can't come, even Zhao Xi can't do it himself.

Chapter 214 Exploding This Mountain Ridge

Guochao never regarded land as a mode of transportation.

The lack of horses is one aspect, the key is that the shipping is fast and cheap.And the most important point, the territory of Guochao is just so small...

The Yellow River Basin should be the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, which can basically cover most of the northern state capitals of the country except the Northwest Frontier State and East Road.

Not to mention the south, there are rivers and lakes everywhere, and there is no need to land.

During Zhao Xi's trip this time, he really saw Guochao's so-called official way.

In Guochao, the land road to the south was called the auxiliary road. Although there were many post stations, it was difficult to compare with the post stations on Jingxi Road to the west.

Officials from the south went to Beijing, even if it was Jingchu Road, they would use the Yangtze River water transport to the east, and then turn north to take the water transport route.

Zhao Xi knew that most of Henan was in the plains, especially in the east and south of Henan. There were hardly any mountains, but densely covered with rivers.

From Bianliang City to Xiangzhou direction, to Fangcheng Mountain, Yimapingchuan.

It has passed through four or five rivers, including Guohe, Helu, and Shaying.

The development of shipping was promoted due to Guochao's orientation to water transportation.

Every river has merchant ships.However, due to the inability to pass through the north and south, the scale and volume of these merchant ships are much smaller than those of the Bianhe River.

If there is a transportation line that is no less than the transportation volume of the Bianhe River, running through Xiangzhou to Bianliang, don't think about how busy this transportation will be.

Such a transportation line related to the country should have been dominated by the court.But no!Even if Guochao belongs to his family in name, it won't work.

Zhao Xi didn't recklessly hand over the report directly, not to mention the matter of refuting face, as for Guochao's current difficult situation, he didn't want to make things difficult for his father.

How many times, since he couldn't take over the water transportation, Zhao Xi always talked about the track when he was playing and chatting daily.

At the beginning, the husbands were purely novel, and they listened to it, but only as a novelty.

When Zhao Xi went deeper and talked about the importance of orbits to the country, no one found it novel.

There should be a backup plan for doing things, or you should try to think of possible accidents before things start.

Just like Zhao Xi now, even though the official way makes him look down on him, he still has to use the official way as a backup for emergency treatment.
