"Your Highness, doesn't you want to implement this pension insurance policy in this salt field?" Seeing Zhu Youxiao pondering, Wang Wenyan suddenly asked.

"I do have this idea, my goal, is to build a humane paradise for the elderly, the young, the young, the strong, the widows, the lonely, the sick and the sick are all supported, this pension insurance policy, is the guarantee for the elderly." Zhu Youxiao's tone was light, but what he said was extremely shocking.

Wang Wenyan suddenly froze, and his heart was greatly shocked, this was the first time Zhu Youxiao confided his ambitions to outsiders, with his status at the moment, there was no need to lie and deceive Wang Wenyan. A future emperor uttered such words, which .......

Words can no longer describe Wang Wenyan's mood at the moment, all kinds of emotions are rolling in his heart, like boiling water, constantly churning, and the expression on his face is also wonderful under the change of emotions in his heart.

After a long time, he settled down, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and opened his mouth to persuade: "Your Highness must not act like this, don't you hear the saying that Shengmien fights Mi Hatred, if the various conditions are too good, it will give birth to unnecessary variables." Compared to those who are scattered everywhere and have nothing to rely on, the life of the salt dding can be described as being in heaven. Even if His Highness has this thought, he will plan slowly for the day and future, and he must not be in a hurry. ”

"Well, according to the gentleman." Zhu Youxiao reluctantly agreed, the reason why he asked the other party was to know if it was appropriate to implement it now, and since he knew that it would not work, he would not forcibly push it. Now, it is still important to ascend the throne, as long as you ensure that you ascend the throne, it is not up to him to decide what policies he wants to implement.

After secretly keeping the idea of insurance in his heart, Zhu Youxiao returned to the management area with everyone.

The large school field that accommodates more than 3,000 people is under management, and countless people are practicing the phalanx on it, and at this time, three days have passed, and the basic queue has been familiarized, and it is entering the big performance of the phalanx assembly.

I saw that one company after another formed a small phalanx, constantly walking and circling, spear assassination, sometimes paused in formation, sometimes changed formation, into a four-sided phalanx, like a butterfly wearing flowers, the people in the phalanx kept running in through complex drills, forming a strong combat effectiveness.

After crossing the management area, it was the port, and after a short rest after dinner, Zhu Youxiao led people to that side again. The port had already been built by this time, and there were brick and stone paving and cement plastering everywhere. The port is very large, and as long as the construction team has nothing to do, they will dig sand and deepen the berths, lay the wharf, build warehouse buildings, and expand the port's throughput capacity.

It's a pity that there is not a single ship docked in such a regular port, and only the construction team is in the empty area. At this time, there were already 5,000 people in the construction team, of which 3,000 were green, and the rest were old, weak, women and children, who were responsible for logistics in the construction team. Five years of non-stop laying of ports and building houses turned the former group of farmers into professional construction workers.

Laying brick walls, laying roadbeds, building steel bars, digging foundations, building houses and bridges, they can do everything.

Next to the harbor, there was the wreckage of another building, a harbour that had been turned diagonally, and in which there were several huge docks, in which there was no water, and the ground was exposed with cement and powder. At this time, the shipyard was full of dark traces of burning wood, as were the walls around the dock, and the doors, windows, shelves, keel timber and other shipbuilding materials were burned.

The shipyard built by Zhu Youxiao is very huge, there is a dry dock in total, there is no wall on the east side facing the sea, the other three sides are surrounded by cement walls, the wall is ten meters high, into a trapezoidal shape, there are many steps buckle on it, you can build some wooden platforms, passages.

The entire dock is semi-enclosed, it's not that Zhu Youxiao doesn't want to build the roof, the dock is too big, and he doesn't have the technology to close it at all. And there is no need for this, Tianjin is suitable for salt, not only the terrain and seawater, but also the weather, here is sunny and windy all year round, little rain, occasionally rain will not last long, semi-closed enough.

If it weren't for the protection of materials such as wood and paint for writing shipbuilding, he wouldn't even want to get the closed one, and he would just come to the open air, which would save time and trouble.

Looking at the ruins and ruins, Zhu Youxiao's eyes were filled with irrepressible anger, this group of damn guys dared to thwart his plan. If he could build a ship and go to sea one step earlier, he would be able to find islands overseas, establish a secret base, and then make steel and forge armor and build firearms, what can't he do? Where will it be like now, trapped in the capital, unable to move.

It was also because of Wanli's beating and suppression of him that he didn't dare to talk about the three thousand green forms to be gathered and form a formation to defend against the enemy, otherwise he would be denounced, so that Wanli knew that there was such a group of elites here, and he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around. And the number of Yulin troops that he can use openly is too small, and there are many places to guard, so he can't take care of it at all.

Moreover, pirates come and go like the wind, taking advantage of the geographical advantage, they can kill them anytime and anywhere, burn down the shipyard, and they can't defend themselves at all, which makes Zhu Youxiao very distressed.

As a prince, especially a prince like the Ming Dynasty, who has no power and is even restricted in action, is not an ordinary hardship, and the development before he ascended the throne, it is really better to be a local tyrant in the countryside. But when you ascend the throne, it's different, and it's definitely skyrocketing.

"Xu Xinsu." Zhu Youxuli chewed on the name repeatedly, and his intelligence all showed that the attack on the pirates was inseparable from Xu Xinsu, especially the big flag of Xu Zi that he found on the Galen ship that was swept to the shore by the storm.

Xu Xinsu, a native of Tong'an, Fujian, the brother of the great pirate Li Dan in the late Ming Dynasty, was the intermediary between Li Dan and the Fujian government, a maritime businessman, and had inextricable connections in the mainland officialdom. For Xu Xinsu, who has a wide connection, dispatching thousands of pirates is like playing.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the pirates had great maritime power, and Li Dan, who occupied the mainland and Japanese trade, when all his troops were dispatched, there were thousands of warships and tens of thousands of personnel.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see, this sign of scorched black and dilapidated is depressing to look at." Zhu Youxiao looked around and took the lead to walk out, "Go and see those shipbuilders, I heard that they seem to be thriving here." ”

"Your Highness, go this way." Wang Wenyan smiled slightly, didn't speak, and led the way directly in front.

Out of the shipyard, they rode down a concrete road and walked back to the port, where there was a closed dock in a bay inside the port. From the outside, the dock looks a bit like a workshop in a later factory.

A group of people walked in, and they were greeted by a scene of fever, countless boatmen walking around the bamboo frame, busy around the two ships. This enclosed dock is not very large, but there are two boats, and it looks like a fishing boat.

"What is this?" Zhu Youxiao asked suspiciously, he never thought that there was a dock here, and it was still under normal construction.

Wang Wenyan smiled slightly, did not answer directly, but shouted loudly towards the busy crowd: "Elder Gao, come here." ”

Turning his head, Wang Wenyan explained to Zhu Youxiao again: "Elder Gao is the most skilled among the craftsmen you have found, Your Highness, I heard that my ancestor is a master craftsman of Longjiang Shipyard, and he has supervised the construction of the big treasure ship that the Three Treasure Eunuchs rode in the West. ”

Soon, an old man with a short stature but a straight body walked over, his hair was a little gray, his face was full of wrinkles, but he was in good spirits, and he walked with a tiger's demeanor. This kind of bearing was often seen in those experts and scholars in Zhu Youxiao's previous life.

That's a very confident performance, and the people who can have this kind of performance are all authorities in their respective fields.

"Elder Gao, this is the owner, you introduce the situation in the past few years to the owner." Wang Wenyan said with a smile, looking at his attitude, he was very respectful to Elder Gao.

Wang Wenyan is an inlander, and he himself does not understand seafaring ships, and the reason why he respects this old man so much is because Zhu Youxiao attaches great importance to it. In the past five years, Zhu Youxiao has spent a lot of money to build a shipyard for manufacturing sea ships, although in the end it was unsuccessful because of the pirate attack, but he showed his attitude of importance.

"Okay, Steward Wang." Regarding Wang Wenyan's attitude, the old man is calm, and he is obviously often respected in the past. Clearing his throat, Elder Gao introduced his experience in the past few years in his majestic and generous voice.

Gao Lao was originally a person from Nanzhili, a shipbuilding industry for generations, since the Longjiang shipyard was abandoned, he did not abandon the skills at hand, but went to Fujian, where he built ships, and then one day was captured by Jinyiwei and thrown to Tianjin. Along with him, there were several other masters in the shipbuilding industry, a total of seven or eight people, all of whom were sent over by Jinyiwei.

It's okay along the way, Jinyiwei is quite polite to them, but they didn't suffer much, but they just suffered some bumps in the road, and the real hardship was here.

After seeing the ten huge docks at first, Elder Gao and the other masters were very excited. They had already figured out on the way that there was a noble man who asked them to go to the north to build a ship, and when they knew this, they were relieved, since they wanted to use them, there must be no danger.

It's just that after the excitement at the beginning, they began to scold their mothers non-stop, the shipyard is very good, there are a lot of big timbers, and there are many industries to help, but they can't stand someone who comes to make trouble in three days, and often a large number of pirates come from the sea and burn down the shipyard.

The first few times they really tossed them up, and they ran away from each other, and it wasn't until this closed dock was built in the harbor that they stabilized. After stabilization, the first thing they did was to restore the Galen.

The big Galen ship picked up by Zhu Youxiao was burned along with the shipyard during the second pirate attack, fortunately, the shape and size on it had been recorded by them, and they had studied it thoroughly if they didn't record it, even if the ship was burned, it was nothing, but it was a pity that a large sea ship that could have been repaired.

It is a pity that several shipbuilders did not succeed in copying it, on the one hand, because the technology was not thoroughly studied, and on the other hand, there were no qualified manpower and tools. A few of them alone can't build a ship from exhaustion.

Later, at the suggestion of Steward Wang, they built fishing boats in this closed dock and took apprentices at the same time. On the one hand, the fishing boat can go out to sea to fish, subsidize the meat in the salt works, and on the other hand, it can also train sailors, and when the Galen ship is built, there will be enough manpower to control it.

Speaking of this, Gao Lao glanced at Wang Wenyan strangely, didn't he know all these things, how could he let himself say it? Is it because you want to let yourself show your face in front of the owner?
