But Li Jinglong and He Guangyi could not have imagined that the worse was still here.

"Your Majesty, I think I should not accept the gifts of the Japanese envoy!" Zhu Gaochi said, "I have presented these boxes of gifts to the national treasury. If the Japanese who come to the future will give them again, that's the same!"

"You..." Li Jinglong and He Guangyi couldn't help but look at each other, and said in his heart, "How fucking awesome!"

This is an open and upright way of wealth, and Zhu Gaochi's words were cut off for everyone.

In fact, they didn’t really expect these things, but they were said by Zhu Gaochi, and they were inferior. Besides, this was something the emperor had already approved, so why are you pretending to be noble?

If you want to be truly noble, do you say it privately?

"Why?" Zhu Yunxiu was also slightly surprised and asked with a smile.

"As Duke Cao said, I am all ministers of the Ming Dynasty. It is really inappropriate to eat the king's salary and receive the etiquette of the foreigners!" Zhu Gaochi said seriously, "Besides, I still have a word in my heart that I don't say anything!"

"You said!" Zhu Yunxiu glanced at Li Jinglong and the others.

Zhu Gaochi took a deep breath, "Receiving Gentile rites is also a crime of accepting bribes, and it is also a crime of bribery. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has rectified the administration of officials and established the Integrity Yuan to clean up the world and the extravagant style in the court. Since this is the case, the ministers should not be allowed to accept Gentile bribes.

, After all, this is ill-gotten gain!"

Then, he paused, "Don't do anything because of small things, otherwise you will lose the big things because of small things. The emperor is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he cannot indulge his ministers in such unhealthy manner!"

In an instant, He Guangyi and Li Jinglong looked at each other again, and then said in unison, "I am also interested in this. This ill-righteous wealth cannot be obtained by the minister!"

Li Jinglong said again, "Your Majesty, you have reduced your expenses in the palace. I can't bear to see it. When I look at these things, I will be charged in the inner treasury. How about the royal expenses?"

Zhu Yunxiu looked at Zhu Gaochi and his eyes fell on the latter's broad shoulders.

He stood up and walked slowly to Zhu Gaochi's side, patting the other party's shoulder, "You are right, this is because I am not thinking well and should not do anything at will!"

Although Zhu Gaochi's words were implicit, he was scolding him.

You don’t allow officials from all over the world to embezzle them, but you indulge your confidant ministers to receive gifts from Japan. Wouldn’t that be slap yourself in the face? You foolish monarch!

"The emperor is so serious!"

Zhu Yunxi patted the other person on the shoulder again and said with a smile, "Right is right, wrong is wrong. I am not a saint, so I will naturally make mistakes. I said yes, because you have the courage to be honest with my faults in person, rather than just saying good things.

.” As he said, he smiled, “This is much better and more important than many officials who do official articles and say some soup without any pain!”

"Just based on your heart and responsibility, you should be rewarded!" As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu thought for a moment and smiled, "You are the prince. According to the same example as Prince Yu of the Ming Dynasty, you will be rewarded with a five-clawed golden dragon pattern suit.

”

"I dare not!" Zhu Gaochi was shocked.

Although the prince and prince who were appointed by the old man could wear five-clawed golden dragon pattern clothes, it was the time of the founding of the country. Now, more than 30 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the relationship between the brothers of the Tian family has gradually faded, and the monarch and ministers ascended the throne,

Everyone is careful not to overthrow the situation. This five-clawed golden dragon patterned uniform can only be under the box. Who dares to wear it randomly? Even if it is worn, it is still in his own palace. Who dares to spread the word out?

"To show your praise!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "You are now the prince of the King of Yan, and in the future, you will be the minister of the Ming Dynasty. My helper, I want your intention to check for shortcomings and make up for the leaks and speak out for advice!"

Zhu Gaochi pondered for a moment, "In this way, I can only accept it ashamed, thank the emperor for his kindness!"

"As for these things?" Zhu Yunxiu looked at the boxes again, "Whether the national treasury or my inner treasury, I don't want it!" As he said, the topic changed, "Recently, the treasure shipyard on the Sancha River has been with the household again again."

The ministry asked for money, and Zhang Yan filed a lawsuit with me several times. These things were sent to the shipyard for shipbuilding. Although it was a drop in the bucket, it was better than nothing. In the future, the Japanese envoys sent them again and sent them to the shipyard together!"

"Gao!" Li Jinglong suddenly gave a thumbs up and smiled, "Use the Japanese money to build ships and transport troops to Japan in the future. Gao, it's really high!"

"I have another word!" Zhu Gaochi said again.

"But it's okay!" Zhu Yunxiu was in a good mood and said with a smile.

Zhu Gaochi hesitated for a moment, "I think the Ming Dynasty's ships are enough now, and the shipbuilding costs are too much. I heard that the Ministry of Revenue has regarded Yingtianfu's treasure ship, Songjiang Shipyard, Fuzhou Shipyard and other places as bottomless pits. They are spread out every year.

The money is enough to support more than 100,000 troops. Not to mention ordering the land to cut down the centuries-old trees in the deep mountains and forests. I heard that the shipyard only has fir and other woods…”

"I have my own concerns about this!" Zhu Yunxiu directly interrupted the other party.

These things are somewhat difficult for those who receive traditional Confucian education such as Zhu Gaochi.

Only by building a ship can you know whether it is suitable for the ocean, and the shipbuilding technology is constantly improving. Today, the Ming Dynasty's navy can only travel around the surrounding Southeast Asia, and it will be less powerful than it can be.

It’s not that there is a lack of HNA route or people, but that there is really a shortage of ships.

Moreover, problems have emerged in the process of shipbuilding. Everything in raw materials and structures is a headache. But it is worth it. The ban on the sea set by the old man in the age of the old man is now a waste of time, and it is everywhere.

The annual tax revenue of customs is astonishing as it is imperative to open the sea.

By then, the demand for ships will be greater.

And if you don’t have a good foundation now, how can you face the upcoming era of great voyage and immigration in the future?

In fact, there is no shortage of Ming Dynasty in craftsmanship. When Zheng He went to the West in history, Ming Dynasty's technology was ahead of the world. But in the end, it was because some officials believed that going out to sea was useless, and the shipbuilding craftsmanship and sea charts were all put away, which made the Ming Dynasty

A hundred years of sailing will be ruined.

"It's not that I am arbitrary!" Zhu Yunxiu said, "Shipbuilding is a real weapon of the country. When I have time to have free time, I will take you to the treasure shipyard outside the city to see you!"

Faced with the emperor's stubbornness, even if Zhu Gaochi had ten thousand words in his heart, he could only hide it in his heart.

It was a coincidence that at this moment, the turtle was out and said, "Your Majesty, Lian Zining, the Minister of Works, asked for a meeting!"

"Let him in!"

~~

Lian Zining is in charge of the two important tasks of coining and shipbuilding, and is recognized as the first choice of the next Minister of Works.

"I'm asking..."

"I know that I am impatient with these big rules and still have to kowtow?" Zhu Yunsheng smiled, "What's the matter with me when I see you?"

Lian Zining bowed, "Go back to the emperor, the Wentianxiang shipyard, which was supervised by the Sanchahe Shipyard, and the dragon bones of the Yuewumu ship were not limited to some mistakes!"

The significance of Wen Tianxiang and Yue Wumu to the people of Zhongxia is self-evident, and it is self-evident how important the station warship named after their names is.

These two ships are three-layer plywood, 52 meters long and 14 meters wide, and carry 700 soldiers. This kind of warship is more than 150 meters long, 60 meters wide, and 9 mast loads.

A treasure ship with a thousand people cannot compare to it. The treasure ship is a giant, but the manufacturing requirements of the treasure ship are not as high as those of the warship, and the functions at sea are also different.

If the Wen Tianxiang and Yue Wumu were placed in later generations, it would be the level of the third-level sail battleship. This kind of warship specially used for combat was the first time that the treasure shipyard was built. If it was completed, the whole ship would have a counterweight gun of seventy-four

The door is like the giant on the sea of ​​this era.

"What's the problem?" Zhu Yunxiu asked.

Lian Zining said, "According to the shipyard, the wood is not good. If it continues to be built, the timber will not be able to withstand the three decks and the weight of seventy-four cannons." As he said that, he paused

Dun, continued carefully, "The fir in the shipyard is no longer available..."

Zhu Yunxi sighed and looked at Zhu Gaochi, "I just said that I will take you there to see another day. It seems that it is better to choose a day than to hit the day." As he said, he said to the outside world, "Prepare, I will go to the treasure shipyard to see it."
