Zhu Yijun also sighed countless times, but the steam engine couldn't be built, and Zhu Yijun felt like he was choked by the neck.

In Zhu Yijun's view, productivity can't keep up, many things can't be done, and only the development of a steam engine can completely release the power of the Ming Dynasty. With muskets and artillery as the equipment, the Ming Dynasty was able to fight as much as possible, and only then could it form a complete crushing situation.

If you don't start the first industrial revolution as soon as possible, it will still be easy to catch up, and once the Ming Dynasty starts first, it will not be so easy for others to catch up.

Glancing at Xu Guangqi, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "This matter is the top priority, since Aiqing wants to do it with all her might, I naturally support it, do it well, I will let the Internal Affairs Office fully cooperate with you, ask people to give money, ask for money, as long as you can build a steam engine, give what you want." ”

Xu Guangqi came to see Zhu Yijun today, for this, hearing that Zhu Yijun agreed, Xu Guangqi was naturally overjoyed.

This time, Xu Guangqi was ready to do a big job, listed all the key difficulties of the steam engine, and then set up research teams respectively, and at the same time launched public relations for different technical difficulties. This is naturally a big project, once you start to do it, you will employ countless people and spend money like water.

This is now, it was impossible in the past, and Zhu Yijun didn't have a chance to give money if he wanted to.

Xu Guangqi left, and Zhu Yijun continued to look through the folds, and several of them caught Zhu Yijun's attention, including the things in the south.

In the past two years, because his main energy has been in the north, Zhu Yijun has taken a prudent approach to the south, which makes some people feel uneasy. Among them are Yang Yinglong, who wanted to rebel in his previous life, and that Mang Yingli in Myanmar, they don't feel the strength of the Ming Dynasty at all, but they only feel that the strength of the Ming Dynasty in the south is declining.

This didn't make a fuss again, but Zhu Yijun stretched out his hand and put the fold aside, and he didn't mean to dispose of it.

Sighing lightly, the main task next year is to sort out, and the location is placed in Ningxia and Gansu, and Zhu Yijun is ready to sort out there.

Now there are 200,000 cavalry in Damingguang, of course these people can't stay here, Zhu Yijun is ready to transfer a part of the cavalry of Jizhou and Xuanda to the grassland, and at the same time dispatch the newly established cavalry of the grassland tribe to sweep the Ningxia and Gansu generations.

Recruiting troops in Monan, which had just surrendered, was something Zhu Yijun had already thought of, and the battlefield for them to play was the west.

First, a large number of young and strong westward marches can make Monan Mongolia better governed, and secondly, it can give them the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and they can get the rewards of the Ming Dynasty. In another two years, Zhu Yijun will be able to start the integration of the Enlightenment and Han Dynasty, encourage intermarriage, and at the same time begin to build a large number of schools, and the Mongolian imperial examination, so that they can take the civil service examination.

In a word, win over their nobles, appease their people, and give enough benefits to the upper and lower classes.

With the subtle influence, Zhu Yijun believes that the grassland can definitely become a new engine for the development of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, it will also become the base of the Ming Dynasty in the northwest.

At the same time as the northern plan is unfolding, the southern plan can also be put on the agenda, after the beginning of spring, the shipyard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Qingdao should start shipbuilding, a large number of armed merchant ships will be launched there, and at the same time, the second naval base of the Ming Dynasty will also be built in the Zhoushan Island area of Zhejiang.

There will be the Second Fleet of the Ming Imperial Naval Division, and at the same time, the construction of the Second Shipyard of the Ming Dynasty will begin in Shanghai, now Songjiang Mansion.

There will be the birth of the largest shipyard in the Ming Dynasty, the construction of the Ming Navy Division's warships, the next time, Zhu Yijun will focus on the south, whether it is politics or economy, or military, all in the south. Zhu Yijun's first military campaign was against the Yunnan-Guizhou-Guangxi region, which needed to be completely pacified, and then reformed and reverted.

Zhu Yijun stood in front of the map, constantly thinking about what to do, and the expression on his face was also very serious.

Although the plan has been formulated for many years and he has deduced it countless times, Zhu Yijun is still a little apprehensive in his heart, because Zhu Yijun doesn't want a little failure. Because the pacification of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi will be the foundation of the Ming Dynasty's southward advance, and he will also establish the third royal sailor of the Ming Dynasty in the Guanghai generation of Guangdong.

Once the three major sailors are completed, the sailors of the Ming Dynasty will also be formed, and they can try to form an ocean-going fleet.

While Zhu Yijun was continuing to study his plan in detail, Zhang Whale came to Zhu Yijun's side, bowed down and said, "Emperor, Imperial Doctor Li is here!" ”

When Zhu Yijun heard that Li Shizhen was coming, his heart suddenly moved, he also knew the news that Li Shizhen was doing experiments a few days ago, and now he heard that Li Shizhen was coming, obviously there was news! It didn't take long for Li Shizhen to walk in from the outside, and this time it wasn't like the last time.

This time, Li Shizhen cleaned up very cleanly and put on her official uniform, but at a glance, she knew that this official uniform had not been worn a few times, because it still looked brand new.

After seeing Zhu Yijun, Li Shizhen bowed down to salute Zhu Yijun, and Zhu Yijun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Aiqing is exempt!" ”

Li Shizhen didn't insist, he stood up when he heard Zhu Yijun's words, obviously the old man also knew that the emperor would not let him salute, that is, to make a show. If others didn't say whether they had the courage to do this, Zhu Yijun would not allow them to do this, but Li Shizhen did this, and Zhu Yijun thought it was quite interesting.

"Aiqing is thin again!" Zhu Yijun looked at Li Shizhen and said with some pity: "Zhang Whale." ”

Hearing Zhu Yijun call himself, Zhang Whale hurriedly stood up: "Emperor, the old slave is here!" ”

"You find a small condition that you are quick and sensible, match two palace maids, let the imperial dining room go to a person who can make imperial food, follow Li Aiqing, and tell them that Li Aiqing must be served well."

Zhang Whale glanced at Li Shizhen, and sighed in his heart, it was really the emperor's baby! The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all counted, and no one has this treatment, the emperor really feels sorry for this Imperial Doctor Li! Not daring to be the slightest slack, Zhang Whale hurriedly replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, the old slave must do a good job." ”

Li Shizhen was a little helpless, but he also knew that he couldn't refuse this thing, so he said directly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Nodding, Zhu Yijun asked with a smile: "Aiqing entered the palace today, what's the matter?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has developed a medicine." Li Shizhen became excited when he heard Zhu Yijun's words, and began to introduce his new drug to Zhu Yijun, in Li Shizhen's words, this is an antibacterial drug with a good therapeutic effect, and he has already done experiments.
