Chapter 220: Nautical Charts
Zhu Houzhao leaned back in disappointment: "Those uncles can't count on them!"
Hua Houwei chuckled: "Brother, you are too honest, those people are very powerful. Haven't you heard a sentence, a gangster is like a soldier, like a grate?"
"What do you mean?"
"Let them put a cannon in front of someone's house. It's not up to them to decide how much it will cost."
"Damn! Uh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, well, it's nothing more than robbery. But do you still want the reputation of the Ming Dynasty's army?" Zhu Houzhao cursed and saw the surprised eyes of Liu Jian and others, and quickly straightened his body.
, Speak politely.
"Reputation? How much is reputation worth a pound? But it's not good to ignore it at all. Well, civil servants can soothe people's injured hearts and sell them a collection of classics and history." Hua Houwei's bad water is like the Yellow River flooding.
And out of control!
Xie Qian spit out the tea all over the floor and asked with a wry smile: "Your Highness, the civil servant has offended you? Why bother to arrange it like this?"
Hua Houwei blinked and said mischievously: "Second Master, it's not my fault. Isn't that what those corrupt officials do? It's just their job! Huh? This is great. Now there are those corrupt officials.
It’s a good place to put everything to good use! Tsk, tsk, I’m really a genius!”
Liu Jian pointed at Hua Houwei and laughed loudly, and finally stopped laughing: "Your Highness, you are more than just a genius? You have all the crooked talents and ghost talents! Eh? Three talents? Such a three talents?"
Li Dongyang thought for a while: "Your Majesty, I have another idea. When Zheng He went to the West, he passed through many countries. It is said that he has no etiquette, justice and shame. It is better to let the civil servants educate him, select the best, and go to Beijing to study in the Imperial College. You
What do you think?"
Hua Houwei's eyes lit up, this is? TOEFL test! Is there a model for turtles? The method of the lighthouse country is ready-made, just copy it! Bah! This is the first creation of the Tang Dynasty, and the profiteers of the lighthouse country will collect our patent fees.
, they plagiarized quite shamelessly!
"What a great idea! Mr. Li, you really have compassion for the common people. You are worthy of being a literary leader of the generation. High! Really high!" Not everyone can enjoy Hua Houwei's flattery, and Li Dongyang narrowed his eyes in happiness.
Already.
Zhu Houzhao didn't understand what Li Dongyang's skills were. Hua Houwei explained: "Brother, if other countries use our words and accept our ideas, a siphon effect will occur over time, and a large number of talents will be lost to us. Moreover,
We can also let them use our money. Well, don’t waste the treasure banknotes, and exchange them for them slowly. Hey, by then the treasure banknotes can also be exchanged for something! Mr. Li’s trick is subtle, and it will show its great effect after a long time.
power!"
Liu Zhong didn't quite understand this and looked at Hua Houwei eagerly. Hua Houwei said with a smile: "What is China? Respecting etiquette, observing benevolence and filial piety, and acting according to our rules, that is China. If Annan is like this, what does it have to do with China?
the difference?
This is the centripetal force of culture! Dogs used to be wolves, but if they stay with people for a long time and act according to people's will, don't they become dogs? If these countries in Southeast Asia become the loyal dogs of the Ming Dynasty, Mr. Liu, that will be
What a powerful force?"
"Wang the world!" Liu Zhong blurted out, and then laughed: "Your Highness, I thought you had opinions about Confucianism, but I didn't expect that you are actually a great Confucian!"
"Who said Confucianism is not good? In fact, there is no bad school in this world. The key is where it is used!"
Zhu Houzhao nodded: "What Brother Wei said is true, we can't generalize! This army should indeed be reorganized. The tenth regiment battalion, which was born out of the third battalion, still has no say in terms of combat effectiveness. Take advantage of this change of equipment to reorganize it."
Brother Wei, do you just want to change the affiliation of Shenji Battalion?"
"No! We are not worried about poverty but inequality. The Shenji Battalion can change it first, and other swords and guns should be replaced with weapons made of high manganese steel, and then we can talk about other things. Alas, the foundation is really poor now, otherwise
Three thousand battalions are equipped with tanks, who is the enemy in the world?"
Zhu Houzhao noticed Hua Houwei's expression and felt that the tank should be an artifact, so he immediately asked: "Tank? What is it?"
"An iron chariot, carrying a cannon, can ignore the terrain, it is definitely a killer weapon!"
Zhu Houzhao was greedy now. An iron cart carrying a cannon and running around? It was an absolutely invincible existence. If there was such a cart and he could sit on it, haha, how majestic would it be? He asked eagerly: "Can I do it now?"
Shall we make it? When can we make it?"
Hua Houwei shook his head: "The simplest one will take fifteen years. Alas, don't even think about it. If I hadn't cheated, I wouldn't have seen it in this life." Hua Houwei didn't have the ability to make a tank, but he could make a simple tank.
A pickup truck with a stroke engine, a riveted steel plate body, and large tires can still be made. Besides, at this time, this is already a big killer. If there are more, it will require a system.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes almost popped out. There is such a thing? Running all over the mountain with a cannon? Who can stop this? We must get it! Industry, right? Development! Wait! You can't be reckless. The look on Zhu Houzhao's face
The enthusiasm slowly subsided, Hua Houwei nodded secretly, Zhu Houzhao has really grown up.
"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?" Liu Daxia knew very well that the chart must be handed over.
Zhu Houzhao nodded with a smile: "Mr. Liu, regarding the matter of Premier Wu's opening of the sea, the Ministry of War retains the charts of Zheng He's voyages to the West. If King Wu wants to use them, you two should discuss it."
Hua Houwei handed over his hand: "Mr. Liu, I believe you must know the benefits of opening up the sea, so I won't go into details. These aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River can also set up a company with aristocratic families from all over the country. We, the Ming Dynasty, will do business throughout the country, and the navy will escort us.
Learning spreads throughout the world.”
Liu Daxia asked in surprise: "Your Highness, do you mean that all the nations will come to court like the prosperous Tang Dynasty?"
Look, scholars are good at talking. It is obviously a vulgar thing to make money, but it immediately becomes high-end and classy! Hua Houwei nodded: "Being wary will lead to death and forgetting to fight will lead to danger. How can the splendor of the Tang Dynasty be compared with that of the Ming Dynasty? Liu
Sir, I'd better say some things in the open, Jiangnan
I will not ignore the interests of the aristocratic family. Not only that, I will also bring them to make money together. I know that you are connected with them. Please give them a message. I, Zhu Houwei, am not a scourge. Everyone cooperates. Nanyang is the Nanyang of the Ming Dynasty.
It is also the Nanyang of the Ming Dynasty family!"
The look on Liu Daxia's face was unclear. Liu Jian said leisurely: "Master Liu, you and I have been officials in the same dynasty for more than ten years. I know your character. A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. Is there anything I can't say? Your Highness has his heart.
It is clear that the aristocratic family and the royal family are one and the same, it is just one moment and another."
