As for the new cabinet candidates, there was a lot of commotion, and when the three candidates were announced, the impeachment twists and turns appeared. The main target of the attack is naturally Zhang Xueyan, the head of the household department, and Chen Ji, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, is not so much.

This also has something to do with the position of the two people, after all, Chen Wei is the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

As for Zhang Xueyan, there are more problems in the household department, and if you want to find it, you can always find it.

Needless to say, Zeng Shengwu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, basically no one paid attention to him, everyone could see that Zeng Shengwu was accompanying him this time. However, he is still young, and the benefits of showing his face this time are self-evident.

With this recommendation, Zeng Xingwu can be regarded as a complete entry into the sequence of reserve cabinet scholars.

Zhu Yijun didn't care about these disturbances outside, saying that it was a public recommendation, but the people at the top understood that this was just a game between Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing. If there were no major problems, there would simply be no one who was removed in the process of public pushing.

There was a disturbance outside, but Zhu Yijun saw a person in the palace, this person was Pan Jitao, who was famous in both worlds.

In this era, many people may not think that Pan Jitao has anything, but in later generations, the name Pan Jitao is definitely a famous existence in history. Zhu Yijun is naturally very curious about this big celebrity, and knowing that he is coming, he naturally wants to see him very much.

Pan Jitao's feelings about this visit to Beijing are very complicated.

From the bottom of his heart, Pan Jitao didn't want to enter Beijing this time, and when the situation was chaotic, it was easy to get involved in all kinds of turmoil, especially his own sensitive position, and he would become the target of others if he was not careful.

In addition, after hearing about the cabinet battle, Pan Jitao didn't want to get involved.

But the emperor still attaches great importance to himself, which can be clearly understood from the housing prepared for himself and the manpower arranged. On the one hand, he has a sense of mission to be loyal to the emperor, and on the other hand, he is entangled in his heart, and Pan Jitao's mood is naturally complicated.

Of course, there is also a little worry here, after all, the young man is uncertain!

Walking into the Wenhua Palace, Pan Jitao saluted and said: "Pan Jitao, the secretary of the Ministry of Ministers and Soldiers, see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Zhu Yijun looked at Pan Jitao with a smile and said: "Aiqing is exempt, I am a little anxious to wait, today Aiqing is finally here!" Saying that, Zhu Yijun instructed Chen Ju: "Sit!" When Pan Jitao sat down, Zhu Yijun said: "Aiqing has been smooth along the way?" ”

"Back to the emperor, everything is going well!" Pan Jitao agreed and said respectfully.

Although Zhu Yijun talked to Pan Jitao again, he was also looking at Pan Jitao on the side, he was in his forties, with a dignified appearance, good facial features, and an elegant appearance, which was very in line with the appearance of a Ming civil official.

"Aiqing has been in the dust all the way, originally I didn't want Aiqing to take office so quickly, but the Arsenal Division and the Armament Division really need Aiqing!"

Zhu Yijun took out a booklet with a smile, and said to Pan Jitao with a smile: "This is a note written by me, which details the arrangements of the Armament Division and the Arsenal Division, Aiqing can take a look, if there is anything wrong, you can bring it up with me." ”

"In addition, there are some things on the side of the War Bureau, and Aiqing also needs to pick them up as soon as possible."

Regarding the War Bureau, Zhu Yijun mainly didn't want to throw money into it.

After all, Zhu Yijun smashed his own money in the War Bureau before, and now that the Armament Division can use it, there is naturally no need for Zhu Yijun to spend his own money in the treasury. Although Zhu Yijun has some savings over the years, he also has to save flowers!

Not to mention the others, just on the shipyard side, the upfront investment is estimated to be hundreds of thousands of taels.

Whether it's building a shipyard or feeding people, it all takes money, and when the shipyard is built and the shipbuilding starts, it's a big expense.

On the side of the royal sailors, although it is an establishment of 5,000 people, the equipment and salaries of these 5,000 people are not a small amount. This part of the money needs to be paid by the treasury, but Zhu Yijun knows his own affairs, and the millions of taels in the treasury are really not good to do.

Listening to Zhu Yijun's words, Pan Jitao was slightly stunned, the war situation?

Of course, he knows what the War Bureau does, but what does the War Bureau have to do with the Armament Division? However, Pan Jitao knew that he couldn't ask this, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Yijun stretched out his hand and handed the note he wrote to Chen Ju, and asked Chen Ju to hand it to Pan Jitao.

On this, Zhu Yijun wrote some things for later generations, such as assembly lines, etc., such as hydraulic stamping machines, of course, it is only a preliminary idea, and Pan Jitao has to get it himself.

In addition to these, there are also some institutional things, such as the gun numbering system, where each component is implemented by the individual.

Later, Zhu Yijun wrote a detailed example of the treatment of artisan households.

In this era, craftsmen attach great importance to secret skills, and they are basically passed down from generation to generation. However, there are many problems with this succession system, and Zhu Yijun is ready to get rid of it. It's just that now is not the time, but it is very urgent to improve the remuneration of craftsmen.

In this, Zhu Yijun talked about the reward system and the project team claim system.

It is possible for the master craftsman to claim some key technology research and public relations, and set up rewards. At the same time, Zhu Yijun also comprehensively improved the treatment of craftsmen, from the guaranteed salary to the piecework salary, Zhu Yijun listed all of them.

Zhu Yijun also wrote about the standard problem, and there is only one requirement, that is, every part must be replaceable.

Standardization, assembly line, this is the guarantee to improve efficiency and quality, although it will not produce high-quality products, but it can produce qualified products. For mass-produced ordnance products, qualified products are the most important.

With a hydraulic stamping machine, Zhu Yijun believes that Pan Jitao will definitely be able to do it.

Sitting on the stool, Pan Jitao looked at the Tiao Chen listed by Zhu Yijun, the expression on his face was very exciting, sometimes sighing, sometimes excited. For a person who has presided over water control, Pan Jitao naturally knows the role and benefits of these things.

After a while, Pan Jitao finished reading Tiao Chen, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty is really talented!" ”

Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said with a smile: "You take the things, if it doesn't work, then you can look at the modification, but there is one thing, you can't reduce the salary of the craftsman." I will ask the household department to give money and food every month, and I will also strictly prohibit the occurrence of greed for food and wages. ”

"The emperor can rest assured, the minister understands!" Pan Jitao hurriedly bowed down and replied.

The two of them seem to be a lot closer because of this, and they are a lot less rusty when they talk. Pan Jitao said a lot of his own suggestions and ideas, Zhu Yijun was on the side to check and fill in the gaps, and the two of them waited until noon.

Zhu Yijun gave a banquet, and after eating, Pan Jitao left the palace.

It's just that when he left the palace, Chen Ju followed Pan Jitao's side.

"Pan Shangshu, let's take you to the War Bureau to take a look first!" Chen Ju and Pan Jitao sat in the carriage and said to Pan Jitao with a smile: "The emperor let our family and Pan Shangshu hand over because our family had been in the War Bureau for eight years before. ”

Pan Jitao was stunned for a moment, looking at Chen Ju's appearance, he seemed to have a deep affection for the war situation!

However, the War Bureau is not a good yamen, and it is not a place where eunuchs are willing to go in the palace.

The key is to look at Chen Ju's appearance, he is obviously very favored, how can he be in the war bureau for eight years? Although he had doubts in his heart, Pan Jitao didn't ask, he knew that this mystery would definitely be revealed after he arrived at the war bureau.

Sure enough, after arriving at the war bureau, Pan Jitao was frightened by the scene in front of him.

What a little war here!

Dozens of towering steel-making furnaces, horse-drawn carriages everywhere, and craftsmen can be seen busy everywhere. Watching a horse pull a gun cart passing by him, Pan Jitao almost dropped his jaw.

"When our family came here, it was still a wasteland."

"The emperor is willing to spend money, and our family is here with these people, leveling the land, seeing the blast furnace, making iron and steel, and when the iron and steel are smelted, we will start to study the casting of cannons and the improvement of firecrackers."

"I think adults have heard of the bird gun, but the emperor said that the bird gun has too many shortcomings, so let's develop a new fire gun."

"The emperor said that the bird gun used by our Ming Dynasty was obtained from Hongyi during the Jiajing period, and Hongyi will definitely make a better fire gun after so many years. Of course, we want to use the best, so the emperor hopes that we will make a better firebolt. ”

"It is said that it is a flint bird gun, which does not need to be lit, and it is very powerful."

"But our family couldn't make it, but our family hopes that Pan Shangshu can make it."

Pan Jitao looked at Chen Ju, listened to his words with emotion, and said in a deep voice: "Didn't you say that the inner court would send a eunuch to guard the town?" It's better to write to the emperor as an official, and let Gonggong Chen do it! ”

In fact, Pan Jitao really had this idea, he didn't feel it at first, but now seeing the situation here, he really wants to keep Chen Ju.

When I came to the capital, my eyes were black, and I didn't know what the Armament Division was.

If there is an expert in Chen Ju, it is very suitable, anyway, the inner court wants to send someone over, so it is better to choose Chen Ju. Not to mention anything else, there will definitely be no such thing as a layman commanding an insider, looking at Chen Ju's appearance, he is more expert than himself.

Pan Jitao didn't wait for Chen Ju to answer, and said directly: "This official will write to His Majesty!" ”

Chen Ju is a eunuch, and he is not easy to say some things, but Pan Jitao is a Wenchen, and he has no scruples. After seeing Chen Ju's ability, he would not be stupid enough to let Chen Ju go and engage a eunuch who didn't understand anything.

After so many years of river management, Pan Jitao knows how important it is to have a reliable person.

I can't do everything myself, many things need to be done by others, and it is difficult to find a reliable person who can do things, looking around, Pan Jitao said with a smile: "Gonggong Chen, take this official to visit here!" ”
