After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

In midsummer, the first batch of new coins that had been recast officially entered circulation, and those first-generation firearms piled up in warehouses were finally open for sale to other countries.

Those foreign envoys who had been entrenched back and forth in Beijing for a year or two flocked to Honglu Temple again, carrying boxes full of gold, silver and jewels full of sincerity, just to ask for a gate to guard them Artillery of the frontier.

However, all firearms transactions can only be settled with Dazhou SGD.

One Dashi gold coin can be exchanged for 72 Dazhou SGD coins.

One Fuso silver coin can be exchanged for 25 Dazhou new coins.

Three Chongshan copper coins can be exchanged for one Dazhou new coin.

Twelve Baekje pearl coins can be exchanged for one Dazhou new coin.

Nineteen Annanbei coins can be exchanged for one Dazhou new coin.

Regardless of pearl agate, tourmaline jadeite, rice grain, fine salt, slaves, etc., all the trades that can be traded in the market, fire consumption and loss, the exchange rate is determined by Da Zhou.

Over time, the value of the Dazhou new currency circulated among merchants in various countries has far exceeded the value of the new currency itself.

The volume of the treasury in Dazhou soon became overwhelmed again. The Ministry of Industry's blueprint for expanding the treasury was reviewed only by Han Mochu, and the construction started in three quarters.

The household department also recruited and expanded its capacity again, and all the alternate channels who had been squatting for three or four years were promoted.

The account books used are more than three times thicker than those at the beginning of the first year of Yongding, and even the hemp rope used to wear the account books is almost out of supply.

Local governments also took advantage of the wealth of the imperial court to submit to Bianjing a lot of livelihood projects that had been backlogged in their hands for several years and could not be implemented, such as dams, granaries, ferries and so on.

The salaries of the miners and soldiers serving in the mines all over the country have also been increased, and even the private houses in the border areas such as Nanzhao that were recovered back then have been renovated.

Han Mochu also followed what Mr. Yi Ji said, and opened up the trade route from Dazhou to Mixu without stopping.

Buy cheap rice from Mixu, and then distribute it to the small countries around Mixu with poor land but rich in minerals, and directly hire local people to mine mineral deposits for Dazhou.

In this way, tens of millions of labor and other costs can be saved in the middle.

At the same time, Han Mochu also sent several teams composed of officials from Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites to spread the culture and customs of Dazhou to the people living in the barren land.

In just a few months, Da Zhou's reputation spread far and wide, and it seemed that it became the place that the people of those small countries most yearned for.

Show your eyes.

Summer ends and autumn comes, and Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching.

This year's autumn came earlier than in previous years. At the end of summer, it rained heavily in central Beijing for several days, and the weather immediately cooled down.

A huge gold-plated smoke cage was also lit in the East Nuan Pavilion where the emperor lived. Due to years of use, the faucet on the smoke cage has turned black.

Who would have thought of the big Zhoutian that is full of gold today!In the dynasty, there will be such a half-new smoked cage in the imperial city.

Nowadays, even ordinary people's homes have been replaced with new pits and new stoves, but the imperial city is still as simple and unpretentious as ever.

Since the beginning of autumn, Shanggong Wu's workload has suddenly increased exponentially.

Now, the state affairs of the previous dynasty are stable, and the daily memorials are no longer piled up.However, the restless father and son huddled together in the warm pavilion and didn't know what novelty to make. Every day after dinner, they got into the warm pavilion together and refused to come out again. They never turned off the lights until the third watch. .

That's all there is to it, apart from the wood sent by the Department of Internal Affairs, there are also many unnamed parts made by the military supervisor.

Scattered and trivial piled up there, Mrs. Wu of Shanggong followed a few people to clean up every day, only to find out the clues, and was soon tossed into a mess by the father and son.

Wu looked coldly at the father and son three people for a few days, and finally saw that what these three people were building was a big ship.

An exaggeratedly large ship, the most amazing ship she had ever seen in her life.

It's evening.

On the large table used by the monarchs and ministers to govern, the king, Gu Xiu, was wearing a black dragon-pattern vermilion roll-edged robe, with long hair half tied behind his head, and a long golden dragon hairpin inserted obliquely, and most of his hair was draped on his back.Holding a small wooden round box in his hand, he picked up a reed not much larger than a grain of rice with pointed long-handled tweezers, compared it back and forth among the complicated structures inside the cabin, and then raised his head and asked: "Zi Ran , where is this piece of reed pressed? Why can't I install it?"

"Look at me sir."

At this time, Han Mochu was wearing a loose lake silk cloak, the bun on his head was actually the same style as Gu Xiu, and the two pieces of glass inlaid with gold thread on the bridge of his straight nose were court offerings from the Anxi Kingdom. After printing, even the smallest handwriting on the paper can be seen clearly.He first put down the tray in his hand, glanced at the reed in Gu Xiu's hand, and slowly searched through the huge blueprints on the table, and finally found the location where the reed should be in a corner inside the big ship , He picked up the file and sharpened the corners of the reed, and installed the reed according to the position he had just explored, and it really fit perfectly.

"Yafu is amazing!" Xiao Yucheng, who was sticking boards on the outer edge of the big ship, stretched his neck and clapped his hands, "Cheng'er also needs to be loaded into the cabin! Cheng'er also needs to be loaded into the cabin."

Han Mochu curled up his fingers, gently scratched the little man's face, and said with a warm smile, "When Cheng'er has read all the words on the drawing, Yafu will let Cheng'er also load the cabin."

Xiao Yucheng lowered his head, glanced at the detailed text on the drawings, stuck out his tongue bitterly, and honestly continued to stick wooden boards on the big boat.

The blueprint of this giant ship is the bottom one of the batch of blueprints left by Mr. Yi Wei.

The drawing is more than two feet long, and it shows the front, sides, and internal structure of the giant ship in detail.The structure is detailed and the text is detailed.It's just a pity that they didn't use Da Zhou's words.

In order to translate these words, Han Mochu found all the books related to foreign literature that Mr. Yi Ji had stored in Zangshuge in his early years, and translated them bit by bit. Up to now, only seven tenths of them have been translated. .

In order to guard against Fusang's wolfish ambition to strengthen Dazhou's waterway border defense, Han Mochu made a plan at the beginning of the new currency transaction.

He wants to build an advanced coastal defense weapon like the firearms made in the past, so that Da Zhou can also remain invincible among those coastal island and reef countries.

After picking back and forth several times among the pile of hill-like drawings left by Mr. Yi Wei, it was this giant ship at the bottom of the box that firmly caught Han Mochu's attention.

The actual length of this ship is about 120 feet, the width is about 110 feet, and the highest point is about [-] feet.

A huge ship can accommodate five or six thousand men and horses, and can be equipped with many large offensive and defensive weapons, ladders for landing, and giant cannons that can destroy the world at every turn, etc. The bottom of the ship is covered with iron sheets, and even frozen The surface of the water can also be a problem.

What's more, such a huge ship can always be safe no matter how big the wind and waves encounter. Once it goes to war in coastal defense, it can also reduce many unnecessary casualties.

In order to allow the shipbuilders of the Linjiang Navy to build huge ships as soon as possible and avoid detours, Han Mochu took advantage of the peace and peace of the previous dynasty, and pulled Gu Xiu and Yu Cheng to prepare to build a waiting ship first. Compare the size of the model, and then hand over the debugged model to the shipbuilders.

Unknowingly, the father and son have been fighting tirelessly for seven or eight days.

Just after Haishi, the moon is on the treetops.

It was raining again outside the house, Shanggong Wu came in with a few nimble maids carrying food boxes, saw the father and son who were paying attention, Wu called out in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Taifu Han, take a break and have some supper."

The first person who was attracted by the word "Supper" was the little prince Gu Yucheng, who immediately raised his furry head and rubbed his little hands with a smile: "What delicious food did Aunt Wu cook? Cheng'er just happened to be hungry."

Hearing this, Han Mochu didn't insist anymore, took off the gold-rimmed glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, pulled up the king Gu Xiu who was beside him, and walked to the small table where Mrs. Wu had set meals.

On the small table are three bowls of steaming steaming bowls of shredded anchovies and ginger porridge, a plate of crispy bamboo shoots, and a plate of Xiao Yucheng's favorite frankincense muffin.

"Wow, today's supper is so rich and rich!" Xiao Yucheng hastily washed his hands in the copper basin beside him, sat happily at the small table, hugged a bowl of hot porridge, and picked up a piece of soft sugar cake. He took a big bite: "Sure enough, the steamed cake made by Aunt Wu is the best!"

When the father and son were all seated at the table and picked up the porridge bowl, Shanggong Wu's chatterbox also opened up: "Oh, young master, drink slowly, and go to bed early after drinking. I am an old slave today. I want to make mutton liver soup to improve the eyesight of the masters. It’s hard to bear the simmering in the middle of the day every day. I also remember that the three masters don’t like the smell of the liver, and they are afraid that the three masters will eat it late at night. If it doesn’t work, it hurts the spleen and stomach. So the old slave thought that sooner or later he would go to Mr. Su’s place to get some medicinal recipes for nourishing the liver and improving eyesight, and to nourish it early. A few days ago, the concubine sent a message to ask, saying It's autumn and the days are short, so I asked the three masters how they are resting? How can I answer the old slave? I can only hide it from the past, or what can I do? To be honest, the three masters don't wait until the third watch. Sleep? I’m afraid that the empress dowager will have to enter the palace to interrogate herself the next day. The old slave is not afraid of being scolded by the empress dowager. How? Don’t the masters do great things to make people in the world not sleep late and suffer? Do you need me, an old bastard, to be caught in it?”

Wu's words were painstaking, carefully crafted, and the strange words were circling among the father and son. No one knew where to start, let alone how much she would say after answering the words, so they could only listen silently. I bury my head in the porridge.

"Aunt Wu, I remember that July 24 seems to be your birthday, right?" Gu Xiu held the porridge bowl and finally found a break to interrupt Shanggong Wu's chatter.

"Huh? Sigh..." Mrs. Wu was taken aback by the words, raised her eyebrows and thought for a while, and then nodded again and again: "Your Majesty, how can this old slave's birthday be worthy of your heart, this is really a shame for this old slave."

"Aunt Wu has been working hard for me and Taifu Han for so many years. If Yucheng didn't take care of you every day, he wouldn't be able to do so well." Gu Xiu put down the porridge bowl in his hand, and said solemnly: "It's better to bring Yucheng with you on your birthday this year." Let's go back to your hometown, I remember that you took Yucheng there once a few years ago, and now you want to go again to make things better."

As soon as Gu Xiu finished speaking, Wu's eye circles turned red.In the early years, when she returned to her hometown with Yucheng in her arms, she put an end to the rumors in the village that she had lost her children and grandchildren. Everyone envied her. She was already satisfied that time, and she didn't want Gu Xiu to mention it again today: "Your Majesty, you are really It is too flattering to the old slave, the young master is a golden branch and jade leaf, how can I always accompany the old slave back to the hometown?"

"Aunt Wu, Cheng'er was raised by you, and Li Li is also your grandchild." Xiao Yucheng turned around with a smile and hugged Wu's waist: "Cheng'er hasn't ridden a big green bull for a long time!"

For many years, she has loved Yucheng as her own grandson with all her heart, and never thought that she could have a place in this child's heart.Hearing the child speak like this today, he naturally felt comforted, he had completely forgotten about the matter of trying to persuade the father and son to go to sleep just now.

All he could think about was how to bring Yucheng back to the countryside, and how to make new clothes for Yucheng.

After finishing the porridge, Han Mo shook his head with a smile at first, thinking that the father and son really did everything they could to avoid the nagging.
