Zhu Yue ran to Fulong Palace excitedly and asked excitedly, "Brother, is Japan a big silver mountain?"

Zhu Xiongying put down his brush speechlessly and criticized, "How old are you now?! You are still as unruly as when you were a child!"

"Brother Emperor, but your navy captured Japan and robbed the Silver Mountain?" Zhu Yue was extremely excited, and now she was extremely excited, "I knew that Brother Emperor was talented and strategic, and I knew that the navy that Brother Emperor was working on would be of great use!

"

Zhu Xiongying laughed and said to Zhu Yue, "Don't talk nonsense. The navy belongs to my imperial court. What belongs to your imperial brother!"

Zhu Yue curled her lips, but she didn't agree, "It's not that I don't know that in the early years, the emperor's grandfather banned the sea. It was the emperor's brother who clamored to open the sea. Nowadays, one can get millions of taels of silver and jewelry from Nanyang every year.

Jade, now that the emperor has captured another mountain of silver, my Ming Dynasty’s treasury will no longer be empty!”

Zhu Xiongying had a headache and said to Zhu Yue, "There is always not enough money to spend, and more money is not necessarily a good thing. Having money is naturally a good thing, but if there is no food or cloth, then the silver is useless."

"

Zhu Yue doesn't care. She only needs to know that the Ming Dynasty's treasury is getting fuller every day. That's because her emperor brother is talented and wise. Under such circumstances, who dares to have other thoughts about the throne?!

It’s natural for the Emperor’s grandfather to favor him. After all, not everyone is as talented and far-sighted as the Emperor’s brother!

Not only Zhu Yue and Yourong Yan, but also Wang Chengen and others felt the incomparable glory. The emperor's grandson's position was stable and he had many civilized and military officials, but now it has been spread. The Ming Dynasty went on a cross-sea expedition and fought in Japan.

A mountain of silver came down!

Moreover, in the land of Goryeo, Taisun's uncle and second uncle led an army to attack and defeated Li Chenggui's army. Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty does not need Goryeo to pay tribute to Korean ginseng. The Ming Dynasty can collect taxes on the spot and dig up Korean ginseng and other things by itself.

good.

Zhu Xiongying's reputation and prestige are increasing with the continuous supply of silver to Yingtian Mansion. This is also the intentional guidance of Lao Zhu and Da Zhu. The navy is almost considered by many to be the foundation of the emperor's grandson. This time, it is sent to Gaoli and

Japan was also led by the emperor's grandson.

Therefore, these contributions can naturally be attributed to the civil servants who filled in the gaps and made every effort to ensure logistics, and also to the mighty soldiers at the front who fought bloody battles. But more importantly, the emperor's grandson had a far-sighted vision and strategized.

Credit, whoever dares to take credit from the emperor's grandson is seeking death. Whoever dares to deny the emperor's grandson's achievements is making a joke with the lives of the whole family!

"I will definitely be Emperor Wu in the future. Originally, those civil servants said that I am a noble person and good at martial arts, and now it is even more so." Zhu Xiongying didn't care and said while eating beef, "Fortunately, I grabbed a seat this time.

Silver mines, otherwise it will be a militancy."

Zhu Yue smiled and said to Zhu Xiongying, "Brother Emperor, you never win a losing battle!"

It's okay to say that. Zhu Xiongying agreed with this point of view, "That's true. Your brother is just too stubborn to do anything for nothing. In wars and expeditions, your brother always wants to get some benefits. Just wait.

Our Ming Dynasty will become stronger and stronger day by day!"

Zhu Yue nodded affirmatively. She, her sister Zhu Xi, and her brother Zhu Yunxi have all admired the emperor's brother since childhood. The younger brother Zhu Yunxi may be okay, and the two sisters Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue, whether they are the previous emperor's grandmother or

The imperial aunts all praised the imperial brother unabashedly in front of them, praising the emperor's early wisdom and intelligence.

Zhu Xiongying doesn't pay much attention to the improvement of his reputation. The main thing is that these things don't seem worthy of him being too proud.

After all, the current output of silver mines is still relatively average. If the silver shipped back every month reaches 300,000 taels or 500,000 taels in the future, that would be something to be proud of. But by that time, everyone may be used to it.

some things.

The imperial court sent three more guard posts to protect the Shijian Silver Mine, and under the leadership of Feng Sheng, they continued to expand their base in Japan. The three guard posts from the princes were under the command of Chang Mao and Chang Sheng, and they were able to resist Li Chenggui.

Don't take the initiative to attack the other party, but you must protect the springboard.

Zhu Xiongying is still very clear about matters such as priorities, and Lao Zhu naturally knows even more clearly that some places are not suitable for a big fight for the time being.

Zhu Xiongying actually doesn't care much about the further improvement of his prestige. The main reason is that his status is stable enough, and he can naturally see many things more openly, and there is no need to be particularly sensitive or concerned.

Looking at the continuous development of Tianjin City, Li Shanchang felt that it was a little bit too much. He was too old and he couldn't bear it. He also felt that the current emperor's grandson was too full of ideas, strategies and far-sightedness, which made him unbearable.

What to think about when you stay.

"Qi'er, I never believed in destiny before, but now it seems that my vision is short-sighted." Li Shanchang spoke earnestly and said to Li Qi, "You must remember, if you do what your grandson tells you well, you don't have to worry about making mistakes."

Li Qi actually felt a little resentful in his heart, and he complained, "Father, is it true that my great-grandson will never make mistakes?"

"The biggest difference between my grandson and you is that my grandson plans before he makes a move. Life is like a chess game. A mediocre person is a mediocre person when he takes a step and counts it as three moves. He is a normal person when he takes a step and counts it as ten moves!" Li Shanchang said with emotion!

, "Look at what Taisun has done over the years, which one is not purposeful and which one is not profitable?!"

Li Qi thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be true. "My father said this, and my son believed it. Everything my grandson planned was a long-term matter. It is difficult to see results in the short term. Three or five years later,

It’s possible if you see the results.”

Li Shanchang nodded and told him again, "So you have to follow the great grandson. The great grandson has his own plans in mind. Furthermore, people say that the great grandson is like the current sage, but he is more lenient than the sage, and the sage is too mean."

.”

Father and son can say this in private, and they can only say this when there is no one else around. Li Shanchang naturally knows the character of the current emperor very well.

While Li Shanchang and his son were talking in private, there was a lot of traffic in front of the Kaiping Prince's Mansion. Although Chang Lan managed the family well and had established rules, it did not affect some of Chang Yuchun's disciples, former officials, or some imperial orders.

The married woman sends greetings and so on.

Taisun's status is too stable, and Taisun's talents and strategies have shocked many people. At this time, they naturally want to try their best to squeeze into Taisun's chariot. This is definitely an excellent opportunity to make his career smooth.

Chance.

The status of the grandson is stable. The grandson has become more and more outstanding in the past two years, which naturally makes Chang Lan extremely proud.

As long as they successfully ascend the throne, the status of the Chang family will undoubtedly become more stable. It can even be said that it is not impossible to replace the Xu family. After all, Xu Yungong, the legitimate son of the Xu family, can lead the army now, but it will be difficult to say in the future. There are many foreign relatives involved in politics.

taboo to the emperor.

This also made Chang Lan more sensitive and concerned, and her uneasy mother-in-law brother had to keep a close eye on her. If that bastard Lan Yu dared to ruin the great grandson's affairs, Chang Lan would really have to fight with Lan Yu.

Clear the line!

Zhu Xiongying does prefer layout. He still likes to take a long-term view to catch big fish. Some short-term results are naturally important. But long-term operations seem to be more important to Zhu Xiongying.

It is true that some of his actions do not expect to see immediate results. It would be good to see some results in three or five years. It is not impossible to see some clues after ten years.

Zhu Xiongying is still very patient. Who makes him the future successor of this empire? He hopes that this country and this nation will be stronger than anyone else. He will not do such things as killing the goose to obtain the eggs, and he is willing to give up enough.

Invest in the early stage, even if many people may not recognize it now.

"Can the gun barrel be made of bronze?" Zhu Xiongying came to the research institute of the Ministry of Industry and gave some of his own insights. "However, these things still need to be explored and studied by everyone. Don't be afraid of making mistakes or wasting money. As long as

It is useful and will help me, Huang Ming. I will not hesitate to grant you an official title."

Official title?

The cautious craftsmen below were suddenly stunned. Those of them who were registered as craftsmen really had a chance to become officials and nobles?!

Zhu Xiongying is really willing to give up. As long as these craftsmen bring some breakthrough research, which can improve the national power and productivity of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Xiongying really doesn't mind giving officials and titles. Even if it may be just a casual official, even if it is not a hereditary one,

The title is enough to drive some craftsmen into madness.

The so-called bottom-of-the-box technology, some secrets on male-to-male inheritance, etc., should be taken out at this time, which has also made many craftsmen who want to retain their skills waver.

It is still necessary to establish one or two models. This is not only to mobilize the enthusiasm of some craftsmen. This is also an attempt by Zhu Xiongying to suppress and contain the civil servant group. He will definitely not let the Confucian family dominate, and will not let the civil servants be just so-called

Disciples of the Emperor.

Including the previous deliberate attack on Yan Shenggong, Zhu Xiongying did not just want to disgust Yan Shenggong and his family, but also to make those scholars think more at this time. This is also very important, but Zhu Xiongying pays more attention to some more practical things.

Zhu Xiongying, who was in a good mood, continued to sit in Peiping. Even when his eldest sister Zhu Xi married Muchun, Zhu Xiongying was unable to respond to Tianfu in time, which made Zhu Xiongying regretful.

He has many things to do, such as inspecting places, looking at the reclamation of civilian fields, and looking at the cotton planting situation. Including a series of looms produced, the recruitment of weavers, etc., Zhu Xiongying also needs to pay attention to them.

The "highway" from Tianjin to Peiping, the training of soldiers on the nine sides, including the continuous investigation and pressure on the Tatars, etc., are all Zhu Xiongying's busy things, and he can't get away from them.

Feel.

But it's pretty good. All things are progressing well. Zhu Xiongying also thinks that whether it's military or political, he's handling things well for the time being. Everything is under control. His layout seems to be advancing well.
