"The manufacturing of this machine will be troublesome for you two!"
Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly, looked at the two people in front of him and said.
"This machine is related to the national destiny of our Ming Dynasty for the next hundred years!"
Zhu Cixiang said solemnly to the two people in front of him.
"clear!"
When Song Yingxing and Wang Zheng heard Zhu Cixiang's words, their expressions became serious, and they quickly said to Zhu Cixiang in front of them: "I will do my best!"
"OK!"
With a smile on his face, Zhu Cixi looked at the two people in front of him and said with a smile.
After Zhu Cihong encouraged the two people in front of him a lot, he asked them to leave to work on the steam engine. All the things that should be arranged have been arranged.
I believe that with these two big guys, this steam engine should be ready soon!
As long as we develop a steam engine, we may be able to develop automatic metal processing and factories.
Today's steel output is still too low. With steam engines, you can save manpower and material resources in many places!
You know, there are many coal mines in Shandong, so you don’t need to worry about coal.
Then there is no shortage of iron ore in Shandong.
All I can say is, take your time!
Zhu Cixiang sighed slightly in his heart.
He didn't have time to focus on this, there were still many things to be busy with.
"Li Xi!"
After Zhu Cihong came out of the room, he shouted to Li Xi.
"Your Highness."
Li Xi hurriedly shouted to Zhu Cixiang.
"How is the compilation of the new fish scale atlas in Shandong counties going? Have all the land surveyors been sent out?"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Li Xi in front of him and asked.
"People have been sent down!"
At this time, there was a wry smile in Li Xi's eyes, and he looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "But regarding matters such as population enumeration and land measurement, there is great resistance from various places, so our current progress is still somewhat..."
"Don't begrudge manpower, this matter must be vigorously implemented!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Li Xi in front of him solemnly and said.
"Now everyone in the East Palace is focused on this. At least the fish scale atlas and the population survey must be completed. If you encounter obstacles, find a way! I will transfer Zhu San to you. This must be done!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
Li Xi quickly saluted Zhu Cihong in front of him.
"Get down!"
Zhu Cixi took a sip of water and said to Li Xi in front of him.
Li Xi slowly retreated.
Looking at Li Xi's back, Zhu Cixiang continued to look at the information on the table.
"Zhu Yi."
Zhu Cixiang said to Zhu Yi who was standing aside.
"Your Highness!"
Zhu Yi walked out from the corner and knelt on one knee in front of Zhu Cixiang.
"What's the situation now in the capital?"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Zhu Yi in front of him calmly and asked.
"Li Zicheng seems to want to take root in Beijing. The torture you mentioned before does not seem to have happened. Li Zicheng seems to be preparing to ascend the throne..."
There was a hint of hesitation in Zhu Yi's eyes, and he looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said.
"oh?"
Zhu Cixiang's expression did not change much, he just looked at Zhu Yi calmly in front of him.
"This guy is really shameless!"
Zhu Cixi sneered for a while.
At this time, Zhu Yiyi looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him seriously and said, "Your Highness, should we take action?"
"Not in a hurry!"
Zhu Cixiang calmly looked at Zhu Yi in front of him and said.
"The success rate of assassinating him is too low now, and it's unnecessary!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
Zhu Yi said respectfully.
"How's it going with Zhu Er?"
At this time, Zhu Cixiang pondered for a moment, looked at Zhu Yi in front of him and asked.
"Your Highness, Zhu Er's Blood Scale Society is developing quite well. Many members have joined the army of thieves. Then, about Zhou Kui and the money from the families of those powerful people you mentioned before.
They basically found out where it was hidden, and killed all the people who knew about it! There was probably more than 12 million taels of silver hidden in it, and the other items were worthless!"
"not bad!"
Zhu Cixiang smiled faintly.
"This matter will not be suspected on us!"
Zhu Cixiang's eyes flashed with light, and he looked at Zhu Yi in front of him and asked.
Zhu Yi smiled slightly, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, Zhu Er and the others also rushed to the opening when Li Zicheng was about to enter the city, and they only took action after everyone's eyes were attracted by Li Zicheng.
Then it was done very neatly, no one was left alive, and the corpses were placed in the hall again. Everyone would only think that it was the intruder who had done it, and would never involve our Golden Scale Association with this incident.
!”
"kindness!"
Zhu Cixiang nodded.
He calmly looked at Zhu Yi in front of him and said: "The power of the Golden Scale Society can continue to expand, but you must remember that sufficient safety must be ensured! Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Zhu Yi nodded solemnly.
"Okay, let's get down!"
After saying that, Zhu Yi flashed and disappeared.
Zhu Cixiang continued to look at other government affairs in front of him.
At this time, Jinan Prefecture.
"Everyone! Stand still for me!"
Li Dashan put his hands behind his back, wore a suit of armor, and walked in front of a group of new recruits.
The recruits in front of them were basically all wearing tatters, and very few of them were able to wear relatively clean and complete clothes.
Because in this era, ordinary decent people will most likely not send their own strong labor force to the battlefield, although this military camp is very good.
As long as you are willing to join the army, you can be rewarded with five taels of silver on the spot, and then you will receive military pay as usual, one tael of silver per month, and no deductions will be made.
But there are still only a handful of people willing to come.
There is no way, for most families, as long as there are certain conditions, they will never let their strong labor force go to the battlefield.
"Ready! One! Two! Three! Splash!"
Li Dashan said to the people on the side who had prepared buckets.
"Wow!"
Buckets of water were poured directly on the newly recruited recruits next to them.
Looking at the embarrassed recruits in front of him, Li Dashan had a slight smile on his face and slowly walked in front of the surrounding recruits.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said it!"
Li Dashan said loudly to the new recruits in front of him.
"Recruits! They all come from different backgrounds. Some of them have poor family conditions and have lice at home. These lice are absolutely not allowed to be brought to the military camp! Therefore, you need to wash them with water. Take off all your clothes!"
Li Dashan said to the new recruits in front of him.
These recruits suddenly looked at each other with a trace of hesitation in their eyes.
However, under the urging of the soldiers around them, they gritted their teeth, took off all their tattered clothes, and threw them to the designated location next to them.
