My Daming New Empire

"With this cement, wherever my Da Ming's roads are cultivated, that place belongs to my Da Ming's territory. After that, when the army is dispatched, it will no longer have to suffer from the mud. "

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "My grandson originally wanted to keep this technology a secret, but now I think it's wrong. If it is true that all the territory of the Ming Dynasty has been built into cement roads, this cement workshop must be opened all over the Ming Dynasty. I see Not only does the supervisor not need to keep it secret, but it should also adopt the method of authorization, so that ordinary people can also join in, so as to produce the cement that my Daming urgently needs."

Zhu Gaochi said: "Hundreds of thousands of peasants are needed to burn cement. So many people abandon their farmland and beware of food shortages."

He knows this without saying anything.In an agriculture-based country, if cement is fired and farming is missed, food is the most important thing for the people, and the country will be unstable if there is no food to eat.

Zhu Zhan basically already had a plan in mind, but he hasn't discussed it with Zhang Fu yet, so this plan will not be mentioned for now.

He opened his mouth and said: "Sun Er thinks that now, starting with the state capitals, each state capital will build a batch of cement kilns first, and the number of workers must be controlled below [-]. In hubs, the number of cement kilns may be appropriately expanded as appropriate. Farming should not be missed because of work."

Zhu Di nodded and said: "After Kong Cheng has calculated the number of kiln workers required for each cement kiln and calculated the optimal ratio of each formula, then the decree will be notified to the whole territory. Ji Er, let the Ministry of Industry make a plan, Ensure that the cement produced can be supplied for use, and farming cannot be missed because of this."

"According to the order."

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji agreed so readily, Zhu Di felt a little embarrassed. "Now you are planning to build a navy, set up a Gewuyuan, plan for maritime trade, and now you are going to get married. It is really tiring for you."

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said: "The grandson is young and is not afraid of being tired. The more things he does now, the grandson can know a lot about all kinds of things, and he will not be deceived by the courtiers in the future."

This sentence seemed to touch Zhu Di's sore spot again. He glanced at Zhu Gaochi who was staring at the map, and sighed. After all, he didn't embarrass him in front of Zhu Zhanji.

He waved his hand and said, "It's getting late, you guys go back to the palace. I'll ask Wang Yan to send you two hundred servants with expatriate experience directly. You have to do things and don't tire yourself out. "

Although Zhu Zhanji really wanted to ask him why he rewarded Kong Cheng so much today, but after thinking about it, he still didn't ask.

Zhu Di is very similar to him in his previous life. He is the kind of person who only wants one person to control the overall situation. You will naturally let you know what other people should know, and you will never let you know what you shouldn't know.

This information asymmetry is the most important part of the satisfaction of being in power.

So, it's better not to spoil his mood, anyway, even if he doesn't say it, he can guess a little bit.

Back in the palace, Zhu Zhanji ordered Li Liang. "Go and ask Yang Zhangde to check Kong Cheng's identity."

And Zhu Di also received a report from Zongzheng's mansion afterwards, and learned that Zhang Fu wanted the two concubines to return to the province, Zhu Di couldn't help laughing. "It turns out that this kid sometimes loses his composure, let's announce that he will have an audience at the Hall of Martial Arts tomorrow..."

He thought for a while and then said: "Someone inform Taisun to come to the Hall of Martial Arts at noon."

But when it was almost noon the next day, Zhang Fu had just arrived at Wuying Gate under the leadership of the servant, and met Zhu Zhanji who was waiting at the gate.

"Let me lead the British Duke in personally, and you stand down."

All the eunuchs responded in unison, and no one objected at all.

Looking at Zhu Zhanji's young face, Zhang Fu was surprised by Zhu Zhanji's power in the palace. In the past five years, he still knew little about this palace.

But at this time, he paid respects to Zhu Zhanji honestly, followed Zhu Zhanji modestly, and walked side by side towards the Hall of Martial Arts.

With limited time, Zhang Fu stopped going around in circles and asked directly: "Is the proposal made by Your Highness a few days ago still valid?"

"Of course, until the name of the British public is changed."

Zhang Fu's heart moved, and he thanked him: "Thanks to Your Highness for your help."

The titles of the Ming Dynasty all had place names. If Zhang Fu was really ordered to Yongzhen Jiaozhi, then his title would definitely be changed. This is Zhu Zhanji's reassurance for him.

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said: "I am not only helping you, but also for the whole of Ming Dynasty. Cochin has a complex terrain and mixed ethnic groups. If the British can stabilize this place, it will be a great contribution to Daming."

Although Zhang Fu knew he shouldn't ask, he still couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, aren't you afraid of strong branches and weak stems?"

"If one country in Ming Dynasty is against one land in Jiaozhi, if you are still afraid, how can you plot against the world?"

"The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking..."

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "You don't need to test me, and you don't need to worry. The world is so big. If Jiaozhi is stable, there will still be other areas in this world. There will always be areas that the power of the Ming Dynasty cannot reach. For example, that It takes more than half a year to go back and forth between Nanzhou and Xizhou, those areas cannot be controlled by the imperial court alone."

This is tantamount to clearly telling Zhang Fu that even if Jiaozhi is stable under his governance, if the imperial court wants to bring Jiaozhi under the management of the court, it will leave a way for the Zhang family to relocate.

So upon hearing this promise, Zhang Fu said sincerely: "Fu is willing to hold the reins for His Highness."

This sentence is also unmistakable.At this time, he had already stepped into the gate of Wuying Hall, Zhu Zhanji just smiled and nodded slightly, and walked into the hall first.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

On March 26, Huang Fu, the chief envoy of Jiaozhi, sent another urgent report.Although most of the Chen State was wiped out, the remaining Chen Yuehu regrouped tens of thousands of people in Nanzhang (Laos), and when Zhang Fu returned to Beijing, he started to make trouble again.

The plan to change the Duke of England to the Duke of Anguo, which is still in the making, has also been put on hold for the time being.

An Guogong's An, of course refers to Annan.

Zhu Di re-appointed Zhang Fu as the commander-in-chief of Jiaozhi, went to guard Jiaozhi, and took over the military and political power of Jiaozhi.

Zhu Di originally wanted to recall Huang Fu directly, but at the initiative of Zhang Fu, he temporarily left Huang Fu in Jiaozhi.

Zhang Fu also knew that when he left, he was about to change his identity. Before leaving, he also took several of his brothers and relatives from his hometown with him.

He also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to train his clansmen and select capable people from among them.

At the same time, the Navy Command, which has not yet been formed, also issued the first official military order.The Zhejiang Navy, Fujian Navy, and Guangdong Navy each mobilized 5000 people and [-] warships of various types to form a huge transport team.

At this time, Zhu Di already knew that Zhu Zhanji wanted to use the captured Annan people to build roads and burn cement, and he also knew his plan to kill off children and grandchildren.

For this kind of thing, Zhu Di didn't have any psychological burden, and he specially appointed a castration team of 20 people to set off with Zhang Fu.

Any rebels captured this time who are difficult to tame will be directly castrated.Those who are obedient leave a glimmer of hope for them.But even without castration, it may not be easy to live for ten years in Daming when building roads, embankments, and burning cement.

Zhang Fu didn't leave Beijing until mid-April.At this time, the outermost hydraulic mill in the Jiajiang Industrial Zone was ready to grind flour and pound rice.

Zhu Zhanji didn't bother to come here to inspect the work at all recently, because he has been arranging the work on Jiaozhi recently, and the concubine selection event held for him has also come to an end.

At the end of March, the remaining [-] beauties were arranged in the West Palace where only a few old concubines lived.Even Sun Xian, the default grandson concubine, moved from the Wenhua Palace to the West Palace to live with those girls.

Zhu Zhanji was actually very curious about this "grand occasion", and even ran over to see the beauty of the three hundred beautiful girls gathered together.

It's a pity that those old maids who never dared to refute him on weekdays refused to let him in this time.

Everyone laughed at him, "His Royal Highness, wait for another month, and you can look at it however you want, and I dare not let you in now. Something went wrong, and this old life is not enough to pay back."

The so-called mistake does not mean that there will be any problems with Zhu Zhanji's safety, but that some of those women will act to collude with Zhu Zhanji.

At this time, if Zhu Zhanji takes a fancy to someone, the whole system will be challenged.

Why did he go back to his hometown to apply for the election when he arranged for Ma Xin to enter the palace, why Princess Shu wanted to arrange for Lan Yan to enter the palace, but also went through the back door first, why Sun Xian also lived with all the girls at this time.

This is the system.

Even if they have the ability to break the system, no one in power will openly violate the system, because maintaining the existence of the system can guarantee their power.

When the system seems to be empty, this dynasty is coming to an end.
