My Daming New Empire

Zhu Zhanji waved at Liu Wan, Liu Wan took a step forward, Zhu Zhanji tore off the yellow cloth, and put a small coil of wire on the wooden plate.

Zhu Di looked at the wire and didn't quite understand what kind of medicine Zhu Zhanji sold in his gourd. "How strange is the wire?"

"Grandpa Huang doesn't know that this iron wire is not forged by craftsmen, but stretched out with machine tools. Over time, when the technology matures, tens of millions of meters of iron wire can be produced in a day."

"What's the use of so many wires?"

Zhu Zhanji smiled and picked up a piece of wire that had been wrapped with spikes, and handed it to Zhu Di. "Grandpa, please see, use this wire to form a cylinder, and then stretch it out to become a horse-repelling post. With this thing, the cavalry will no longer be a threat to Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Di's expression moved, he tried the spikes of the wire with his hands, and sighed: "It's true that you can produce tens of millions of meters in a day?"

"Now there are still some technical problems, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry are still solving some problems. But in time, it is not difficult to produce tens of millions of meters a day."

Zhu Di laughed and said: "Okay, okay, with this thing, the Timur Kingdom will no longer be a threat. When that day really comes, I will definitely reward all the workers."

Seeing that he was in a happy mood, Zhu Zhanji struck while the iron was hot and said, "There is one more happy event for my grandson. Since my grandson learned that there is a saltpeter mine in Jiangyou, I sent people to investigate it, and now I have harvested it. Grandpa, please see..."

He drove the tray in front of Li Liang, and there were a few small balls of saltpeter samples on it, and he appeared in front of Zhu Di.

Iron wire is a surprise to Zhu Di, but he never forgets the saltpeter mine.As soon as he saw these saltpeter samples, he stood up excitedly. "Bring it to me and have a look."

Zhu Zhanji took the tray and placed it in front of Zhu Di. He didn't care about the poisonous saltpeter, so he took a deep breath on his nose and smiled, "It really is a saltpeter mine! How much is the reserve?"

"Five mines have been discovered, and the Ministry of Industry is organizing local agricultural workers to excavate them."

Zhu Di laughed and said: "Okay, okay, okay, with saltpeter, my Ming Dynasty has no shackles on gunpowder, this is God bless my Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Di used three words in a row to express the excitement in his heart. Now that Daming is vigorously developing firearms, only saltpeter is the biggest limitation.After solving this problem, the fighting power of the entire Ming army will be fully displayed, and no country will be afraid.

Especially with the barbed wire fence, now even the other party is not afraid of escaping.When applied, the barbed wire is like an active trench. For an emperor like Zhu Di who has fought all his life, he can understand the role of this after a little thought.

When there were two happy events in a row, Zhu Di took a look at Zhu Zhanji, who was laughing with him, and asked, "When I'm in a good mood, if you have any requests, hurry up and ask."

Zhu Zhanji said solemnly: "It is the duty of the grandson to serve the country, so why ask for it..."

Zhu Di snorted, and said, "In that case, let's step back. Today I asked someone to cook wild ginseng and pheasant soup, and I just want to enjoy it."

Knowing that he was playing with flower guns, Zhu Zhanji deliberately pretended to be anxious and said: "Grandson does have a small request..."

Thinking that he had caught Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Di smiled triumphantly. "Then hurry up and say it."

Zhu Zhanji laughed and said: "Sun Er wants to set a model in the army and promote the heroic actions of soldiers to kill the enemy. Therefore, I want to recruit personnel from the Jiaofang Division from all over the country to specially arrange big plays and send them into the army. Another idea Conquering Zhou Wang Shizi Zhu Youdun, Prime Minister, all over the world brothels, theaters, and troupes, guiding the hearts of the people to love martial arts."

Zhu Di didn't expect Zhu Zhanji to make such a request, and he was a little dazed for a while.

This matter has little to do with Zhu Zhanji. On the contrary, it is a matter of civil affairs. In fact, Zhu Zhanji has no benefit in this matter, but it has attracted taboos.

Moreover, although this matter is not big, it is very complicated. It involves the power struggle of the Ministry of Rites, the opening of the five-army governor's office, and the clan's official appointment, which violate the ancestral system. Sensitive issues.

Zhu Di frowned, glanced at Zhu Zhanji, and asked, "Why do you do this?"

Zhu Zhanji said solemnly: "The grandson will go to sea after the New Year. This move is definitely not for power and profit. It's just that the country is peaceful and the people are safe in the Ming Dynasty, and the people value civility over military affairs. If things go on like this, after decades, Daming will have few soldiers to use. Be prepared for danger in times of peace, my grandson thinks that civil and martial arts should advance side by side, cultivate the wolf nature of the common people, and go to sea to expand the territory for my Ming Dynasty. So..."

If Zhu Zhanji had no plans to go to sea, Zhu Di would definitely think that he couldn't wait to seize power now.

But Zhu Zhanji will go to sea in less than two months, and this trip will last for a year or two. Even if he intervenes, it will not be good for Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Di pondered for a while and said: "The Jiaofang Division belongs to the Ministry of Rites, and the clan is an official. These things are very complicated. Let me think about it. But the ambition to promote martial arts is good. I will think about it and let you know."

Coming out of the Jinshen Palace, Zhu Zhanji thought about his decision today, and felt that there was no major mistake, and it should not cause Zhu Di's taboo.

Although this matter itself is taboo, but fortunately he is going to sea.

When he came back from sea, Zhu Di was going to fight the Timur country again, so he would definitely let him supervise the country.

With such a time gap, even if Zhu Di was afraid of grabbing power by himself, he would not care too much. Instead, he would deliberately cultivate his management ability in civil affairs.

Even if Zhu Di is a bit taboo, he can't take care of it now. The sooner these ideological influences are implemented, the greater the impact, the better.

When people form a fixed concept, it is much more difficult to correct it.

On the second day, Zhu Di personally visited the Jiajiang Industrial Zone. After seeing the dozens of bags of saltpeter samples, he immediately ordered the Guangyuan Inspection Division, Ningqiangwei, Pingqiangwei, and the local inspection department to block Laojun Mountain. .

The Ministry of Construction and the internal supervisor set up a saltpeter field and supervision in Laojun Mountain respectively, recruited farmers and workers locally, and fully excavated saltpeter.

Later, under the guidance of Zhu Zhanji, he inspected the gun factory, artillery factory, mint, and machine tool factory.

The development of the Jiajiang Industrial Zone undergoes minor changes in ten days and major changes in January.Today, the scale of the industrial zone has been expanding. The rice pounding field and noodle milling field that were originally located here have been moved to the open space on the lower reaches of the Shogunate Mountain and the river due to the small size of the area.

Here in the Jiajiang Industrial Zone, it will become a closed military industrial base and mint in the future, and all advanced industrial technologies will be kept strictly confidential.

Although Zhu Di knew that this place was developing rapidly, he didn't have a complete concept without seeing it with his own eyes.

When he saw with his own eyes the giant hammer of hundreds of kilograms rumbling, it rumbled down.The 20-meter-tall giant water wheel drives the entire production line, dozens of spinning wheels rotate together, and dozens of female workers work together to produce cloth and silk. Only then can we truly feel the power of industry.

Zhu Di's heart went from excitement to fear, because he couldn't understand these things at all. Such a huge power was not completely controlled by him, but by his grandson.

Although he is his grandson, he still has a bit of taboo because of fear.

Fortunately, he was going to go to sea now, and he was a little bit reluctant before, but now it seems that letting him go away for a while is the best arrangement.

While he is no longer here, he must fully grasp this power in his own hands.

Because this power is too terrifying, he can't feel at ease if he doesn't control it in his own hands.

As for the closure of these workshops, Zhu Di never thought that if this place is closed, who can make guns for Daming!

Zhu Zhanji didn't expect to bring Zhu Di to visit the industrial zone today, but something went wrong, which made him have a knot with himself for the first time.

He was always thinking about the improvement plan of the wire drawing machine, and wanted to make the wire energy as soon as possible, but he didn't notice the gloom in Zhu Di's eyes.

They returned to the inner city together by boat, and when they were about to arrive at the Gongyuan, they heard crying on the Zhuangyuan Bridge.

Zhu Di raised his eyes from the reports from various factories, and ordered: "Go and see what happened!"

When the emperor went out, everything was cleared up, and there were three battalions on both sides of the Qinhuai River to patrol. Those who were not cleared away when the emperor arrived were all powerful people.

The boat paused slightly and stopped.After a while, Wang Yan returned to the cabin and said, "Your Majesty, it's Dongying students who seem to be seriously ill, and they begged His Majesty to send an imperial doctor to treat them."

After the Dongying royal family was arrested and brought to Yingtian Mansion, they were divided into two groups.At that time, the emperor's family was arranged in a large mansion near the Confucius Temple, and the Southern Dynasty's family was arranged in a large mansion near the Taiping Gate.

Both houses are said to have been bought by the Muromachi shogunate and settled down.

These people were imprisoned and could not go out, but in order to appease the hearts of the Dongying people, representatives of the Dongying people were allowed to visit every month to show that Daming did not abuse their royal family.

Zhu Di frowned, and said to Zhu Zhanji: "You captured King Guang, go and have a look. If you can diagnose and treat him, don't let him die now. If you can't diagnose and treat him, you should make arrangements early to let him die." Those Japanese people know."

After ordering Zhu Zhanji, he ordered someone to send a direct order to Tai Hospital to send a doctor to the residence of King Chengguang.
