Chapter 479 The layout is small! To get rich, build roads first!
Han Wang Mansion.
There were very few people attending the meeting.
Guo Zi, Minister of the Northern Ping Department.
Hu Yuancheng, Director of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau.
Feixiong Guard commanded Xiong Ben.
Tiance Guard Commander Guo Deng.
At this moment, the four of them could be old friends of the King of Han in Peiping.
Hu Yuancheng and Guo Deng have no need to say much, they have always been the confidants of King Zhu Gaoxu, Han.
Xiong Ben, as the commander of the Feixiong Guard and one of the commanders of the imperial guards, was ordered to obey the dispatch of the Han King and could barely be considered a subordinate of Zhu Gaoxu.
Guo Zi, a shrewd old guy, now has a common goal with Zhu Gaoxu, so Zhu Gaoxu can trust him for the time being.
A banquet, the guests and hosts have fun.
After the banquet, Guo Zi stood up and left with tactfulness.
The King of Han hit him today, and he had to do a lot of things.
The first step is to continue to hit the officials and gentry down, and don’t be lucky and keep such a little profit!
After all, the King of Han has made it very clear today. If someone dares to interfere, he will definitely wipe out the entire Peking officialdom!
Holding Feixiong Wei and Tiancewei in his hand, I am afraid that no one can stop him!
Thinking of this, Guo Zi left in a hurry.
Xiong Ben also stood up to say goodbye with tactfulness. He also needed to arrange the base of Feixiong Guard soldiers.
Moreover, his current identity and situation are already a bit embarrassing, as the commander of Feixiong Guard.
As the commander of the imperial guards, Xiong Ben naturally had only one master, and only one master, that is His Majesty the Emperor.
Not to mention the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu, the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi has no right to mobilize Feixiong Wei!
But now, the emperor made Feixiongwei obey the orders of the King of Han, which is very embarrassing!
Behave too close, I'm sorry for my identity as the commander of the imperial guards.
If you act too distant, it may anger King Zhu Gaoxu, the Han Dynasty.
So Xiong Ben wisely chose to get up and leave, acting neither humble nor arrogant, and looking like he was doing his job.
After Guo Zi and Xiong Ben left, only Hu Yuancheng and Guo Deng were left.
Zhu Gaoxu looked at Hu Yuancheng and picked up the wine glass directly.
"Old Hu, I wish you this glass of wine!"
"If you hadn't been cursed that day, I would have been in the quagmire of Nanjing."
Hearing this, Hu Yuancheng's expression turned solemn and his eyes were as sharp as a torch.
"Prince, are you determined to withdraw from the battle for the throne?"
No wonder Hu Yuancheng thought so. The King of Han suddenly moved his family to Peking, looking like he never returned to Nanjing. Who wouldn't be suspicious after seeing it?
Although Peking, or Beijing in the future, is likely to become the new capital of the Ming Dynasty.
But after all, there is not a single word of the eight characters in this matter, and no one can guarantee whether the court will really move the capital to Peiping!
The King of Han chose to leave the imperial capital in an abnormal manner and moved his family to this future new capital. It seemed to be in order to seize the opportunity, but in fact it was completely lost.
After all, Nanjing is the imperial capital. Once the vassal king leaves Beijing, what qualifications are there to compete for the throne?
What's more, when the King of Han left Beijing this time, he took the initiative to submit a request, which made Hu Yuancheng even more puzzled.
When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he just smiled faintly.
"Who said that in Peiping, we can't fight for the throne?"
"Beiping will definitely become the new capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the emperor will definitely move the capital to Peiping, so there is no need to think about this."
Hu Yuancheng: "???"
What?
What did you say?
How did you know that you would definitely move the capital?
Why are you the roundworm in His Majesty the Emperor’s belly?
Besides, even if the emperor intends to move the capital, the officials and gentry in the court are not happy, especially those southern officials!
Their family, their fields, and their interests are all in Southern Zhili, in the south!
Once the capital is moved to Peiping, it means that they will lose their vested interests. Who will agree to such a thing?
Moreover, Peking is bitter and cold, far from the gentle town of Jiangnan. The Qinhuai River is charming in the ten miles of the Qinhuai River. The majority of officials in the court oppose the move to Beijing!
Even Emperor Yongle, who is a civil and military master, should he consider the opinions of the court officials?
To be honest, if something goes wrong in the body of His Majesty the Emperor, he will go there directly. Only then will the genius be willing to move the capital to Peiping!
The place in Yingtian has a pleasant climate and a prosperous and prosperous environment. It has a ten-mile Qinhuai capital like this. Only a fool is willing to come to Peking to suffer!
Therefore, the capital migration is already full of variables!
"Why is the prince full of confidence in this matter?"
"Ha, no need to say much, time will give the answer."
Zhu Gaoxu answered with a smile, but didn't say much.
How can he explain it? Could it be that I tell you that I am a time traveler and is familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty?
Zhu Di's thief is only in his fifties now and his body is still very strong.
Because of Zhu Gaoxu's participation in the planning, the Oirat was directly defeated, and even the Ming Dynasty recovered the Lingbei Province. Without the hard work of the subsequent Northern Expeditions of the Mongol Yuan, Zhu Di could live for at least twenty years!
In the past twenty years, even the imperial tombs were probably repaired, so Zhu Di would definitely move the capital to Peiping!
There is no doubt about this!
"Old Hu, let's talk about the serious matter!"
"The Royal Manufacturing Bureau will mainly take the two paths of research and development of advanced firearms and artillery, as well as basic construction!"
Hu Yuancheng was stunned when he heard this and asked subconsciously: "Prince, the first one is okay, what does this second one mean?"
Infrastructure?
What is this?
Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu was stunned and then smiled bitterly.
"Infrastructure is the construction, reconstruction, expansion, restoration, etc. of highways, bridges, schools and various industrial and civil buildings, etc."
"In the future, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau will expand its staffing, vigorously cultivate technical talents such as calculating and exploration, and completely expose the title of the Royal Engineering Team. This is also the core point of the top priority and is comparable to the status of firearms and artillery."
Hu Yuancheng is completely confused now and has no idea what Prince Han said.
My Royal Manufacturing Bureau is a technical talent for developing advanced firearms and artillery.
How to build roads and houses? Now it is under the jurisdiction of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau?
And that Royal Engineering Team is just a hard worker using cement red bricks. What technical content is required?
It’s not that Hu Yuancheng looked down on the Royal Engineering Team, but that he felt it was completely unnecessary.
Now the Royal Manufacturing Bureau has opened a technical training school, and all craftsmen in their forties and fifties to children in their forties and fifties must learn basic scientific knowledge, without exception.
In other words, the workers of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau are now also cultural people.
Although this "cultural person" is different from the Confucian disciples and famous literati, Hu Yuancheng knew very well that only his workers were real "cultural persons".
After all, those literati were still kept in the dark and had never seen the true face of this world!
Seeing Hu Yuancheng's confused look, Zhu Gaoxu could only explain patiently.
"Old Hu, you are still short-sighted and have a small pattern!"
"If you want to get rich, build roads first. This is the lesson I have summarized."
"You might as well think about it. If all the roads in the Ming Dynasty were renovated with cement red bricks, merchants could transport more goods within the same time, and the court could also dispatch more food and grass within the same time..."
Hu Yuancheng: "!!!"
To get rich, build roads first!
