My Daming New Empire

After hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, Lin Hanlun seemed to understand a little bit, but he seemed even more confused.

Zhu Zhanji did not deliberately confuse his grandson, but expressed his meaning clearly. "The continuous firing gun and the separation of the bullets are the phased achievements of Ming Dynasty's research, and this is where we are superior to other countries.

However, the repeating gun is the same as the original flintlock. Although it can occupy a certain advantage, it is not as advantageous as the original flintlock. "

Lin Hanlun understood this sentence, and also understood what Zhu Zhanji meant.

When the flintlock appeared, other countries were still holding broadswords and spears.This gap is too big, so in front of Da Ming's soldiers, they suffered a crushing defeat.

The shooting range of the repeating gun is more than double that of the flintlock gun, and it is more powerful, but the gap with the flintlock gun is not as big as the flintlock gun and cold weapons.

"So, if we Da Ming took out the repeating gun, we might be overtaken by the enemy at a certain time in the future if we don't have better technical reserves. Therefore, the popularization of the repeating gun is not when it is necessary, but when it is necessary. unnecessary."

Lin Hanlun asked: "Grandfather, do we have better guns now?"

Zhu Zhanji did not answer, but said: "The death of your second uncle and third uncle is the same as the death of Wu Guogong Zheng Neng seven years ago. In fact, it was an unnecessary sacrifice and died of his own greed. Iron mines, but your second uncle and third uncle are greedy for the resources of the Novgorod Principality. If they retreat, will the other party dare to come over? They dare not!"

Lin Hanlun was puzzled and said: "The emperor's grandfather, hasn't the Ming Dynasty always advocated the expansion of territory?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "Indeed, and this policy will not change. However, everyone only saw the opening of the frontier, but did not really understand the meaning of the expansion of the soil. Was the Mongolian Yuan Empire big at the beginning? 200 years After that, everything is empty. It is important to open up borders, but how to develop is more important.

Now your family has occupied hundreds of thousands of lands in the southern part of the Extreme West Mountain Range, but your current population is less than 30.What's the point of occupying more territory if one's own territory has not been effectively developed?

So, you want to return to the fief, I agree.This time, you will also be equipped with a 200-shot gun and [-] million bullets.But without real certainty, I won't allow you to go west.Understand? "

After all, he is his own grandson, and he will still count on him to guard the Ural Mountains and the Volga River in the future.If something happened to him, he would have to bother to train a trustworthy junior.

At the beginning, Lin Hanlun only considered whether his request could be agreed, but Zhu Zhanji first explained to him the reason why he was not equipped with a repeating gun at the beginning, and later showed that he valued his grandson.

Now not only give him 200 repeating guns and [-] million bullets, but also teach him what to do when he arrives in the fief.

Feeling Zhu Zhanji's love, he knelt down with tears in excitement and said: "My grandson must live up to the expectations of the emperor's grandfather, develop Tanglin City, and don't start a war indiscriminately."

Zhu Zhanji supported him with both hands and said, "Go to Yingtian Mansion to spend a good year, and leave after fifteen years. I will ask someone to prepare the weapons for you. From now on, the northwestern frontier guards of Daming will be handed over to you father and son." gone."

With Tang Sai'er, a strange woman, Tang Lincheng's threat is not great. Zhu Zhanji believes that his grandson will have enough time to grow up.

Chapter 5 Genius

Xiamaqiao Farm.Fuguo government office.

In the 32nd year of orthodoxy, Ma Di, the son of a rich country, took over the post of Pope of Shinrikyo from Concubine Lan.Although the Ma family never participated in the important military affairs of Ming Dynasty, they still became the most prominent family in Ming Dynasty.

In the palace, Concubine Ma gave birth to three daughters and one son for His Majesty, and is one of His Majesty's favorite concubines.

And Ma Di, as the Duke of Fuguo, married the daughter of the king of Zhou, and the Ma family relied on monopolizing the production and sales of high-definition glass to become the leading wealthy family in Ming Dynasty, all of which added to the heritage of the Ma family.

When he was conferred the title of Pope of the Truth Religion by His Majesty, he would lead the world's scholars and take charge of the world's scientific research direction.Even if he does not participate in important military and political affairs, no one in the world dares to disobey his words.

Four years younger than Zhu Zhanji, Ma Di is 61 years old this year.

Although Zhu Zhanji attaches great importance to it, Ma Di is not arrogant.As a simple-minded scholar who values ​​research more than power, even though he holds great power, he still keeps a low profile.

In Zhu Zhanji's view, Ma Di is a pure scientific researcher.Such a person doesn't have to worry about his ambitions at all, so he puts a lot of emphasis on Madi.

Ma Di, who has entered his old age, has reduced his research energy over the years because he has taken charge of the secular affairs of Shinrikyo.In fact, a scientific research worker has already entered a period of decline after entering old age.

Although in scientific research, he has lost his spirituality and fighting spirit, but because of decades of experience, he can still play a huge role in controlling various researches of Daming.

The Fuguo Mansion was originally Zhu Zhanji's other courtyard. At the beginning, Zhu Zhanji rewarded him with the backyard except the main hall. The Madi family has lived here all these years.

He has been married to Princess Kaiping of Zhou Wangfu for 42 years and has five sons and one daughter.Because there is no concubine, the five sons and one daughter are all legitimate sons and daughters.

Three of the sons inherited their father's business and became Madi's helper in his career.However, because Zhu Zhanji strictly forbids the emergence of academics in Shinrikyo, even though they have made good achievements in their respective industries, they cannot enter the management of Shinrikyo.

A daughter married Zhu Zhanji's 52 son Zhuang Wang, and now she is stationed in the Great Lakes area of ​​the North Continent of Dongzhou with Zhuang Wang.

The youngest son, Ma Dian, was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he has become Ma Di's only knot in his heart.

This kid was born in the 19th year of Zhengtong, and when he was born, Madi's eldest grandson was already born.He was spoiled by his mother and several older brothers since he was a child, and he has developed a character of going his own way.

To say that he is smart, he is very smart. He has been quick at everything since elementary school.

When he was 13 years old, in the laboratory of Madi's home, he made the first capacitor in the world by sandwiching an insulating dielectric between two metal electrodes.

This invention created a new stage in the application of electricity in the Ming Dynasty. Whether it is a power plant, various fan factories, or motor factories, because of this invention, the application of electricity has entered a stable stage.

The invention patent of the capacitor turned the 13-year-old Ma Dian into a rich man, and was personally rewarded by Zhu Zhanji, who canonized him as Daming Fuyang Bo.

But after that, Ma Dian began to hurt Zhongyong.From the age of 13 to 19, he became a complete playboy.

At the age of 19, he graduated from the Royal Institute of Technology, and Zhu Zhanji arranged for him to enter the Institute of Physics.He hadn't worked for a month yet, because Ma Di was engaged to Yu Qian's granddaughter for him. In order to escape marriage, he left a letter and ran to Dongzhou.

This trip lasted for two years, and then he became a groom at Dongzhou's sister's place...

Ma Di was in a hurry and wrote eleven letters to him in a row. Until the end of this year, he was forced to come back from Dongzhou.

As soon as he got home that day, even Princess Kaiping, who spoiled him so much, was furious, and directly asked the guards to hold him in the yard, which was the top ten board.

Ma Dian was crying in the yard, and Princess Kaiping was also crying sadly in the house.Before the top ten boards were finished, his heart softened again, and he ordered to go down and let Ma Dian go.

Of course the guards in the mansion knew that although the madam was angry, she liked the youngest son very much. The force of the beating seemed to be very loud, but in fact there was no flesh injury.

Ma Dian got up from the bench, winked at several guards, and skipped into the room.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down in front of his mother, kowtowed three times to Princess Kaiping, and said with a playful smile: "Mother, when my son came back this time, he found you more than a dozen pure white Dongzhou mink skins. Can I make them for you?" Wearing a big cloak, it is guaranteed that the beauty will cover Yingtian Mansion."

Seeing that his son who was originally white and clean is now dark and strong, Princess Kaiping was heartbroken at first, but couldn't help laughing when he heard his nonsense.

"Slap your mouth! My mother is almost sixty, and she is still in Yingtian Mansion!"

Ma Dian smacked himself lightly, and before Princess Kaiping asked him to get up, he stood up, came over to support his mother, and said with a smile: "In addition to the children's gifts, the elder sister also prepared several carts of gifts for you. The boy also drew some pictures of his grandchildren for his mother, so that his mother can also know what the two newborn grandchildren look like."

Princess Kaiping originally liked this youngest son very much, just because he could coax people with his small mouth.Although he was annoyed that he ran away for two years, under his little flattery, he untied the knot in a short while.

In the yard, Ma Dian brought back seven or eight carts of gifts this time, and now he sorted them out personally. Several sister-in-laws, nephews and nieces who did not go to school, soon became intimate with this strange sixth uncle. .

Ma Dian is the fourth eldest among the boys in his family, but his uncle has two cousins, so he is called the Sixth Young Master.

When the family was busy, Madi got the news and came back from the Shinri Church.When I saw the young son with a hippie smile in the yard, I felt very angry.

Before Ma Dian could react, the two guards pushed him down on the bench in the yard again.

"Again!" Ma Dian looked at his mother with a sad face, and yelled before he hit her. "Mother, help! Father, the child knows that he is wrong."

Although Ma Di has a good personality and is always kind to his wife, but a researcher like him naturally has his paranoid side.

The princess of Kaiping also knows her husband's character. The two understand each other and are considerate of each other, so they become a model couple in the capital.
