Chapter 40 Growth

Holy shit! He is indeed the best money rake in the Ming Dynasty. He can make money anywhere! It’s just like squeezing oil from a stone!

Hongzhi looked at the dumbfounded Xie Qian and felt proud. This child Wei'er, well, he is the good boy gifted to me by God!

Xu Pu chuckled: "Your Highness, are there any changes in the powers of the Trademark Office in the future?"

Hua Houwei nodded: "Don't say it, you can't say it, it won't work if you say it!"

Xu Pu laughed loudly and gave Hongzhi a satisfied hand: "Your Majesty's foresight has made me admire him! I will go back and write a note now to report the necessity of trademark registration!"

Hongzhi also laughed. This Xu Pu, I really made the right choice. Then he looked at Xie Qian with a smile: "Xie Aiqing, what do you mean?"

Xie Qian was still brainstorming, and after listening to Hongzhi's question, he subconsciously blurted out: "Your Majesty, there are some joints that I haven't figured out yet, but I have deeply understood your Majesty's love and care for my ministers. I have no objection. Your Majesty, I submit the petition, and I will second my opinion!"

Well, it still needs experience! But there is no doubt about courage, knowledge, and loyalty. After Hou Zhao ascends the throne, he will definitely be an official! Hongzhi nodded with satisfaction, and his eyes on Xie Qian became gentler: "Xie Aiqing, yes If you still don’t understand, just ask Mr. Xu Ge. The Ming Dynasty still needs to be passed down from generation to generation. The more capable you are, the easier it will be for me."

After bidding farewell to Hongzhi, Xu Pu and Xie Qian left the Wenhua Palace. On the road, Xie Qian looked around and said softly: "My lord, what did the emperor want me to ask you?"

Xu Pu shook his head: "Yu Qiao, this is not the place to talk. After the shift, you and I have a drink. Why can't we talk?"

Not mentioning Xie Qian, Xu Pu had an appointment. After Hongzhi waited for the two to leave, he called Hua Houwei over: "Let's go and walk with my father to the imperial garden! Houzhao, you can come too."

The father and son strolled into the Imperial Garden. At this moment, the Imperial Garden was already full of spring. Roses, peonies, peonies, and green grass had sprouted green buds, and unknown insects buzzed in the air.

"Wei'er, what is coking coal?"

Hua Houwei knew that Xu Deqiang had reported the matter and that the road to enriching the country and strengthening the army was about to begin. So he pinched a bud and said with a smile: "Dad, coking coal is very powerful. To build magic weapons, it all depends on coking coal."

Hongzhi shook his head in disappointment: "Wei'er, one or two magical weapons are of no use to the country. Don't get involved in these arrogant and lustful things."

Hua Houwei laughed: "Dad, it's not just one or two weapons, but all the weapons!"

Hongzhi paused and breathed a little quickly: "What? Say it again?"

"Dad, in the past, the cost of making iron was too high, and there was no method, so our Ming Dynasty's swords and guns were not very sharp. But with the large reserves of coking coal, the cost will become very low. We don't need to understand the reason, as long as it is easy to use. Cheng. Coking coal is used to smelt iron. Tens of thousands of kilograms are produced in one day, all of which are good steel. Dad, who in the world do you think can stop the direction of the Ming Dynasty’s army?”

Hongzhi's eyes were full of excitement. Since he succeeded to the throne, his martial arts has definitely been good enough, but his martial arts is still far from enough. If the army really wants to completely change its uniforms and surrender wherever the front goes, as Hua Houwei said, then he will It’s comparable to Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han! “Zhu Houwei, is everything you said true?”

Hua Houwei chuckled and pointed at Zhu Houzhao: "Brother also went with me that day. Just ask me!"

Zhu Houzhao was pointing hard at a peony plant, turned around and smiled: "Father, I didn't see the coking coal that my brother mentioned, but I do have a sword made of manganese steel. I can chop such a thick copper plate with one knife, tsk tsk."

awesome!"

Hongzhi's eyes suddenly turned red, and he pulled Zhu Houzhao up: "Let's see your sword!"

Hua Houwei grabbed the excited Hongzhi and said, "Dad, what are you anxious about? There are still good things!"

"You bastard! How dare you use that storyteller's trick on your father? Say it! Watch carefully and I'll peel off your skin!"

Hua Houwei was not afraid at all and chuckled: "Dad, I found manganese ore. Add this thing to the molten iron, and the steel that comes out is invincible. My brother's sword is made of high manganese steel! Also, I'm looking for Xu Deqiang

I made a blunderbuss, which is light and sharp. It can shoot six projectiles in an instant, with a radius of three to five feet. No matter how powerful you are, you can only die of hatred!"

Damn it! There is such a thing? Hongzhi was really anxious and narrowed his eyes: "Wei'er, do you control the person who built it?"

Hua Houwei was stunned and shook his head: "No. No one can do this. Without me, there would be no such power!"

Hongzhi sighed: "Oh! You idiot! You have so many good things for nothing! Yinjiang!"

Whoosh, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared next to the father and son, kneeling on one knee: "Long live!"

"Go, everyone who has seen Wei'er's drawings and knows the coking coal process..."

"Dad, there are also craftsmen in the quenching room!" Zhu Houzhao reminded loudly.

"Oh, and the craftsmen in the quenching room are all under surveillance and control. Go!"

Hua Houwei stared at the sudden disappearance of the figure. Hongzhi shook his head: "You are still young after all. My father taught you a move. If you don't keep secrets, you will lose your country. If you don't keep secrets, you will lose your body. It's nothing else. The gun is so powerful.

How dare you let it go? Once word spreads, three or five people will be holding blunderbuss, haha, the emperor is also made of flesh and blood!"

Sweat was dripping from Hua Houwei's head. This was something he had never thought of! He remembered that in Western movies, the cowboy held a revolver and was so majestic that he completely forgot that in this era, the revolver was the number one killer.

!"Dad, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again! I will show you first when I make new things."

Seeing that Hua Houwei sincerely admitted his mistake, Hongzhi nodded happily: "Wei'er, fortunately you are my son, otherwise you know what will happen to you, right?"

"I know! If I were to deal with it, it would definitely be dark. You can't escape supervision wherever you go. If you do this for the rest of your life, you will starve without getting anything, and you won't be able to spend the money you get." Hua Houwei lowered his head and said in his voice

Revealing frustration.

"It's good that you know! Wei'er, we are an imperial family, so we must have the consciousness of an imperial family and be cautious in everything we say and do!"

Hua Houwei nodded solemnly, but Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "Father, it doesn't matter if you play occasionally, right? It's too boring to be careful all day long!"

Hongzhi's brows jumped in anger, but he still took back his hand: "Huzhao! The emperor must not be greedy for pleasure, otherwise you will kill yourself!"

"Oh, I see."

Not to mention Hongzhi's godson, Xie Qian managed to survive the next shift and quickly went home to change his clothes. He didn't know what gift to buy, so he was heartbroken, carried a food box, and went straight to Xu Pu's house.

Xu Pu came out to greet him. When he saw the food box Xie Qian was carrying, he was shocked and laughed: "Yu Qiao, are you really here carrying a pig's head?"
