Zhu Yunwen found that the environment he was in was different from what later generations knew, and he sometimes really wondered if it was a dream, and he didn't remember the assassination of the emperor's grandson in later generations, and Jinyiwei was also different from what he knew. He knew that he would abolish Jinyiwei after he succeeded to the throne, but from the current point of view, Jinyiwei was still useful, as a professional soldier, he knew the importance of intelligence, so Jinyiwei had to be retained, just to refine it and limit power.

After the injury was slightly better, Zhu Yunwen still often went to the Qianqing Palace to assist Zhu Yuanzhang in dealing with the government, and Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to see him, because now the Qianqing Palace has been vitrified, and the large glass has replaced the window paper, and the entire hall has brightened up a lot, which makes the old Zhu Yuanzhang feel a lot more comfortable.

After Zhu Yunwen came in, he handed over a fold, Zhu Yuanzhang took it in surprise, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Yunwen, are you going to change your career to be a farmer or craftsman?" ”

"My grandson didn't, my grandson just felt that the imperial court didn't pay enough attention to agriculture, water conservancy and steel, so I wanted to strengthen investment in this area, so that the agricultural output and technological level of the Ming Dynasty could be improved, so that farmers could grow more food, and soldiers could use better swords."

"Persuade the Ministry of Industry to know the affairs of the county, steel and weapons, why set up another agency?"

"Your Majesty, my grandson thought that Zhixian was mostly here for the imperial examination, and he was proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, but he was not necessarily proficient in the crops and mulberries, so the grain yield per mu of the Ming Dynasty has not been able to go up, so the grandson thinks that there should be a special person to study this matter. The same is true of steel. Sun Er thought it would be enough to set up an agricultural college and an engineering college to specialize in invention and creation, and then give guidance to local officials, farmers, and the Ministry of Industry so that they could specialize in production. ”

"Inventions? Yunwen, you have some new words, I understand what you mean, that is, let the College of Agriculture and the College of Engineering specialize in this invention and creation," Zhu Yuanzhang tapped his head with his finger and said, "Can this be useful?" ”

"My grandson thinks it's okay to give it a try."

Zhu Yuanzhang was also a little interested, and paced: "Yunwen, what do you need me to do?" How many people are needed? How much does it cost per year? ”

"Grandpa Huang, Yun Wei doesn't want to make too much noise, and wants to set up these two courtyards under Zhan Shifu, a total of 500 acres of land is needed, and the Agricultural College and the Engineering College are located on the edge of the Qinhuai River, so that it is convenient to use water. In addition, the College of Agriculture needs 20 farming experts, and the College of Engineering needs more manpower, making glass, making steel, and building weapons. ”

"Well, this is okay, I will announce this matter clearly, but I can't give you too much money in these two departments, and the state has been tense in the past two years, I'm afraid the ministers won't agree."

"It's okay, Grandpa Huang, as long as the Agricultural College can be maintained, Yun Wei of the Engineering College plans to take out the things and sell them, so that he can be responsible for his own profits and losses."

What the? Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned: "You are a grandiose grandson, how can you do business?" ”

"Grandpa Huang, of course my grandson won't do it, my grandson will find someone else to do it, such as the glass this time, Yun Wei thinks it can be sold for a lot of money."

"Glass? Do you want to sell? Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the window: "Isn't this thing for the royal family?" ”

Zhu Yunwen was shocked, quickly grabbed Zhu Yuanzhang's hand, and said, "Grandpa Huang, didn't you say it before?" The grandson wants to use this to maintain Yun Wei's protectors, the guards exercise too much, eat too much, and need a lot of money. ”

"Okay," Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his grandson's anxious appearance and touched his grandson's head: "The imperial grandfather promised you, just remember not to spread rumors that the imperial grandson is in business, this is not good." ”

"Well, my grandson knows."

......

Subsequently, Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated the Holy Purpose and set up two small agricultural colleges and engineering colleges under the Zhan Shifu, and everyone at that time did not realize the influence of these two colleges on the Ming Dynasty, even the most forward-looking Zhu Yunwen did not expect it.

After that, Yan Zhenzhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, came to Zhan Shifu to see Zhu Yunwen, one was the construction of two colleges, and the other was that the Ministry of Industry wanted to produce some craftsmen, and the craftsmen were actually good to say, there were many craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty, as long as they were transferred, but Zhu Yunwen wanted to ask for some skilled craftsmen, Yan Zhenzhi was not very willing, and after bargaining, they each made a step before reaching an agreement.

The construction of the College of Industry and Agriculture was in full swing, and in accordance with Zhu Yunwen's request, a part of the peasant households' land was encircled in a place about 20 miles outside the Tongji Gate, reaching 500 mu. Wang Quan, the dean of the College of Engineering, also came over with the glass craftsmen, including Yu Deshui and Lu Fuyu.

Zhu Yunwen was in Zhan Shifu, looking at the glass in front of him and feeling a little worried, these are all money, but how can they be sold? It was impossible for him to sell it himself, but there was no such person at hand, so after thinking about it, he called Wang Guo and asked him what he had in mind.

After the king came, he suddenly conquered the exquisiteness of the glass, took it and looked left and right, and kept muttering: "Good thing, really good thing, what do you say, Your Highness?" ”

Zhu Yunwen couldn't cry or laugh, and said: "Zizhong, this is made by Yingyi, Gu has been short of money recently, so he plans to sell them, do you have any manpower over there?" ”

"Sell? Why sell? Wang Du held the cup in his arms and shouted.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Wang Du yelling, and said in his heart Why didn't I find you so funny before, just a few cups surprised you like this, as for it? knocked on the table and said, "Zizhong, this thing is easy to make, how many will you want in the future, so let's take one and go today, it will be regarded as a reward for you." ”

"Really?" Wang Du clenched a cup tightly and looked at Zhu Yunwen nervously, looking like he was afraid that Zhu Yunwen's words would not count.

"Well, Lonely's words count, the one in your arms will be given to you."

"Okay, thank you, Your Highness, this thing must be very easy to sell, there are many rich households in Jiangnan, there must be no problem." Wang Du straightened his clothes and said.

"Then who should I sell to?"

"The Bai family, His Royal Highness also gave them a jade pendant, and their shops and transportation teams are all over the south of the Yangtze River, so they are suitable for selling this kind of rare treasure."

"The Bai family?" Zhu Yunwen thought for a while and said: "It's okay, Lone has a good impression of their brothers and sisters, but for the time being, Lone will not come forward, you go and meet them, let them help sell this thing, and share it with them." ”

"That's no problem, but isn't twenty-eight percent a bit high, as long as they sell it, they can get two percent, and this thing is at least one thousand taels of silver per cup, and it may be more than that."

"It's nothing, if it sells well this time, there will be other things for them to sell in the future, this time it's a test of their ability and character."

"Well, listen to Your Highness."

"But when the time comes, you apologize on behalf of Gu, the emperor knows about the token and is going to come back, I don't know if it scared them."

"The emperor knows? The token is coming back? Wang Du's face was a little solemn: "Why don't you contaminate the Bai family, and then find another merchant." ”

"That's not necessary, the emperor didn't say anything, since there is a fate to meet, let's give them a fortune."

"Okay, Zizhong understands."

Wang Du went out with the cups, mirrors, glass necklaces and other items he took out from Zhu Yunwen. There was still some self-deprecation on the road, thinking that His Highness was a person who was addicted to craftsmanship? So I made that kind of strange look, I didn't expect a false alarm, since His Royal Highness wants to sell it, it means that he doesn't pay much attention to it, it seems that he is too worried......

Zhu Yunwen sat on the chair, thinking of the woman who looked like Qingwan, and hoped that everything was okay with her, but there was always a chance to meet, but it was not suitable now.
