After that, Daming's attention also began to shift to the national development plan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, at this time, west of Mingjing and east of Timor Island, in the Timor Sea, a steel giant ship with a displacement of more than 3,000 tons was facing the wind and waves and heading in the direction of Mingjing.

This is the only Mingyizu-class first-class battleship - Taizu II. The service time is only one year. As the exclusive seat of the director of the Navy Department, it is equipped with 127 guns. Among the active battleships of the Ming Dynasty, it is considered the most.

And its exploits are not small. In the Battle of the South Seas between Ming and Ying, three British enemy ships were sunk and five British enemy ships were damaged. Due to the unparalleled sailing speed and superior firepower, nine British enemy ships were also forced down.

It was under the deterrence of its force that the commander-in-chief of the British Indian fleet, Heimler Cox, fled with the remnants of his warships. As a result, the Ming Dynasty won the final victory in the Nanyang Naval Battle.

Under this great feat, Taizu No. 2 is also known as the god of war on the Daming Sea.

It's just that it doesn't take long for the glory of Taizu No. 2 to be broken by latecomers. Because the third-generation Ming Xizu battleship began to be planned and designed when the second-generation Ming Yizu battleship was put into actual production.

And in 97, as soon as the second generation battleships were put into service, they were put into actual production. According to the construction period, it will be launched into service in less than two years.

The naval strength of the Ming Dynasty will undoubtedly be significantly enhanced.

But now, the glory of Taizu II has not been matched by any battleship. So its symbolic meaning is greater than the reality.

Riding this battleship, Zhang Xiao was also in high spirits. But the closer he got to Ming Jing, the more irrepressible the excitement in his heart became.

So much of the time, I spent most of my time standing on the deck looking out to the east. Xia Bing stood aside, his cold expression, and he also showed a rare expression. Wang Yanran held Nancy with tears in her eyes.

In the end, the coup d'état in Mingjing was too dangerous. So Zhang Xiao and the others, all in Nanyang, secretly sweated for Nanfeng.

If it weren't for the Nanyang area, no one could be watching. Zhang Xiao had already returned with Nanfeng before the coup subsided.

Therefore, as soon as he got the news that he could return to Mingjing, he couldn't wait to take the fastest battleship of the Ming Dynasty and rush back to Mingjing. Wang Yanran missed Nanfeng very much, so she took Nancy with her.

Xia Bing's words are promoted. Therefore, the senior management of Daming needs her to come back to perform her duties as soon as possible.

However, this promotion is not an ordinary promotion. Whether it is for the high-level of the Ming Dynasty or for the people of the Ming Dynasty, it has a great impact.

Because she is going to serve as the Minister of Finance, one of the six ministers of the Ming Dynasty. It is not only in charge of the economic lifeline of the Ming Dynasty, but also occupies a place in the Ming Cabinet. Many economic policies will also come from her hands.

Even though she is a woman, her shoulders are not spacious. But the weight she occupies in Daming is already very important.

He is also a former Minister of Finance, and with important members of the Ministry of Finance, he took refuge in Mu Chun. After the coup was quelled, the Ministry of Finance was purged. Many members of organizations at the division and hospital level were demoted, dismissed, or exiled.

There is no one in the system who can take over the Ministry of Finance.

As a result, the leadership of the Ming Dynasty had to look for new candidates from other systems.

Xia Bing, the former director of foreign affairs, also came into sight.

This first is her qualifications.

Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, she has been promoted from ambassador to foreign countries. In the end, under the recommendation of Zuo Peng, he was able to take over as the director of foreign affairs. This administrative experience is already real.

In addition, the crucial Nanyang peace talks. Xia Bing strategized and skillfully navigated between Britain, Burma, Siam, Chenla, and other local powers. Not only perfect, but also allow the countries and local forces concerned to reach a settlement. To the greatest extent, it has also won immeasurable benefits for the Ming Dynasty.

This merit cannot be erased no matter what.

The second is that she was born in a merchant family, and she is also quite familiar with business. In addition, the main purpose of studying management at university is to take care of the family business.

Therefore, professionally, it is also more compatible with the position of the Minister of Finance.

In addition, in recent years, Daming has been committed to improving the status of women from both official and non-governmental aspects. We should do our utmost to liberate the productive forces of society. As a result, more women will go out of the house and devote themselves to labor and production, creating social value.

This is much better than staying at home all day and becoming an ignorant resentful woman who only knows firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

Therefore, Xia Bing, who is a woman, has become a rare appearance. Under her leadership, more women will be prompted to leave the stove and enter society.

Of course, more importantly, she was endorsed by the cabinet members.

In this, Zuo Peng doesn't need to say much. As one's own disciple, there is no reason to oppose it.

And if it weren't for his proposal, Xia Bing wouldn't have entered the cabinet's sight so quickly.

In addition, Nanfeng also appreciates Xia Bing's work ability!

During the time when they worked together in Nanyang, Xia Bing's capable work style was indeed very reassuring. And on the economic front, a few hands were also revealed. For example, Nanyang's economic policy has passed through her hands and has been sorted out. As a result, malpractices that are not conducive to economic development have been eliminated.

And in terms of management, Xia Bing also gave a lot of suggestions. As a result, many of the problems of corruption that are prone to occur in the process of circulation have been effectively corrected. He has made considerable contributions to the building of a clean and honest government.

But what made Nanfeng most happy was that Xia Bing helped a lot in solving the problem of food shortage in Jiaozhi Town. Ideas such as encouraging merchants to transport grain and help relocate people came from her. This not only takes into account the economic development of Nanyang, but also immediately solves the dilemma of Jiaozhi Town.

It can be seen from this that Xia Bing's ability to deal with economic problems is beyond doubt.

Therefore, in Nanfeng's view, it is not inappropriate to let him take over the post of Minister of Finance.

As for Yang Chong and Gao Ming, after seeing the audit department's performance evaluation data on Xia Bing, they didn't have many opinions.

So all parties unanimously agreed that Xia Bing became the new Minister of Finance.

The first female minister of the Ming Dynasty was born.

To be honest, when he heard the news for the first time, Xia Bing couldn't believe it at all. So much so that when Zhang Xiao told her, he unceremoniously let Zhang Xiao eat a closed door.

Until the radio station, a national briefing is carried out. She was convinced that she had indeed become the Minister of Finance.

It feels like winning a $5 million lottery, and it's so exciting that you don't know what to say.

After all, whether it is China in the 21st century or the current Ming Dynasty. No woman can enter the highest decision-making level. So she couldn't believe that the Ming Cabinet, which was full of men, would allow her, a woman, to enter.
