The ship's scissor-shaped bow cuts a white wave into the sea, and the four chimneys spew black soot, which is still heavy despite burning the best Yangquan anthracite. However, despite this, it is much lighter than the smoke marks of merchant ships that use miscellaneous coal. And next to this white cruise ship, there are two armored cruisers cruising nearby, and the reason for this is because this cruise ship with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons is the "Yan Huang".

Its other identity is the royal cruise ship of the Chinese Empire, this is the first voyage of the royal cruise ship, the target - Singapore, just at the beginning of the month, as the emperor Zhu Yifeng has approved the Ryukyu royal family's letter, approving it as a merger into the empire, becoming one of the provinces of the empire.

Because this was the first vassal state to be incorporated into China, Zhu Yifeng, as emperor, would personally go to Sulphuo to show his attention to the matter, and of course, more importantly, even as emperor, he wanted to be able to enjoy a vacation - for example, to hunt in the colonies.

"If you ride a horse on the African savannah, you may be able to hunt dozens of lions a day......

Thinking about more than a century later, those traitor literati said in an admiring tone of great admiration, "The old man is mighty, and one person can shoot 138 hares a day", if Lao Tzu is willing, he can shoot hundreds of elephants a day!

Of course, this idea is just a fleeting thought, after all, it is too wasteful to go to the African colonies now, as for hunting in the country, for rare beasts such as tigers in later generations have been included in the scope of the ban, but the ban on hunting is also a ban on civilian hunting, and the nobles can still hunt some with a license every year.

The reason for this protection is because of the extinction of tigers and leopards in Chinese mainland in later generations, of course, more importantly, there is no ban on guns in China now, and even in the past few years, millions of front-loading rifled guns have been sold to civilians.

"In a few years, after the construction of the African railway, let's go to the colonies and have a hunting experience!"

Zhu Mingzhong, who was standing on the bow of the ship, said to himself, several railways are now being built across Africa, and once these railways are completed, the entire African continent, including its hinterland, will open its arms to immigrants, and a large number of immigrants will quickly pour into Africa, thus fundamentally changing the wild land of Africa.

"Africa doesn't matter right now......"

With his hands clasped to his chest, Zhu Yifeng's lips lifted slightly when he thought of the negotiations in New Chang'an, if there were no accidents, this negotiation should have ended by now, and China would definitely get what it needed - the right to build railways and the most favored nation treatment.

On the surface, China did not let the United States cede land, but Zhu Yifeng, who knows that the population of the entire Midwest is less than one million, is more interested in the future - as long as the railroad is built, China can continue to transport immigrants to the Midwest of the United States through exclusive rail transportation, and it will only take ten years at most, and the entire Midwest will be dyed yellow by Chinese immigrants.

Just like California now, on the surface, it looks like the California of the United States, but now the number of Chinese immigrants there has exceeded 40% of the local population, and according to the estimates of the Colonial Department, the proportion of Chinese in California will exceed 50% by next year, and in a few years, the first Chinese governor will appear in California.

And Washington State, Oregon, and ...... Thinking of the familiar geographical terms, Zhu Yifeng had a smile on his face, soon, everything will change, the western cowboy will no longer be an American term, and the pioneers from China will completely change the entire western region, as long as the railway is built. Twenty years at most, when it turns yellow there, that is, when they break away from the United States and merge into China......

"Railroad Ah......"

Zhu Yifeng found that he had never been so eager for railroads as he is now, because he knew very well that the success of the western frontier of the United States was actually the success of the railroad network, and it was the railroad that promoted the development of the economic and industrial engine of the United States.

"This railway, we still have to repair it quickly!"

"Your Majesty, are you thinking about the railroad again?"

Quietly walked over to Xu Lingyun, while speaking, walked to his side, the years did not seem to have left too many traces on her body, in addition to the figure of the girl's youth, now she is more beautiful, everywhere with the style of a mature woman, which is not possessed by a girl.

Maybe it's because of her age, the current Zhu Yifeng prefers amorous women like her, rather than those young girls who are only fifteen or sixteen years old, but this is obviously unrealistic, after all, in China in this era, unmarried girls are only fifteen or sixteen years old, just like the female officials in the palace, they often marry one after another when they are sixteen or seventeen, and women of Lingyun's age are either married to a husband or widowed.

These two kinds of people are not something that Zhu Yifeng, as the emperor, can provoke, after all, he doesn't want to leave the name of a "faint monarch" to future generations.

O times!

Now looking at the figure revealed when Lingyun's palace clothes were blown by the sea breeze, Zhu Yifeng couldn't help but think of the rich people in the later generations at the "cruise party", and the Victoria's Secret girls who were angry at those parties...... It's a pity that in this day and age, all this is just a thought.

What a tragedy......

Of course, in front of his wife, these thoughts were just fleeting, Zhu Yifeng said along with his wife's words.

"Railways are really important, and in the first year, what was the population of the Northeast region? In three years, the railway was built to Binjiang, and in four years, the railway was built to Beihai (Ulan-Ude), and now, in just three years, the number of immigrants in those places has exceeded 10 million, and an average of more than 3 million immigrants pour into those areas every year......"

The most important thing for immigrants is transportation, and it is thanks to the railways that millions of immigrants from the interior can raindrop along the railway lines, build towns around the railway lines, and then expand into settlements around those towns, and eventually the wilderness becomes a field.

"It is precisely because of the railway that those immigrants can move there, and the crops they grow can also be transported out of there, and now the northeast and the coast, Siberia and other places, have initially built a prosperous city, and in another ten years, it will become a city that is no different from the hinterland, just like the current Binjiang, the population has exceeded 100,000 people, and even the Beihai, the population has exceeded 50,000......"

Immigration is the most important thing!

Immigration will not only bring prosperity to the city, but also make those once wild places become an inseparable part of China, because the Chinese yearn for great unification, and the influx of millions of immigrants will make it part of the empire.

"Of course, more importantly, Yun'er, if we move the excessive population of the mainland to the outside of the customs and to the colonies, we can fundamentally alleviate the population pressure in the country, and wait for the ...... one day."

After a slight pause, Zhu Yifeng looked at the horizon in the distance and said in a solemn tone.

"When Hai'er takes over the throne after a hundred years, there is no need to worry about too many people, I hope to leave him a stable thousand-year-old empire!"

"Your Majesty, the concubine ......"

In an instant, Xu Lingyun was moved to tears by Zhu Yifeng's words.

The reason why she was moved was not because of the thousand-year-old empire, but because, for the first time, Zhu Yifeng made it clear that her son would take over the throne. And all along, even if her son is the crown prince, she is still a little worried, after all, there are countless abolished princes in these dynasties.

"The concubine thanked Your Majesty for Hai'er......"

Without waiting for his wife to finish speaking, Zhu Yifeng took her hand and said softly.

"Yun'er, what's so thankful for this, this is what he deserves, no matter when, the inheritance of the eldest son is unchangeable, whether it is the royal family or the noble family, as for what Kowloon grabs, the royal family already has someone Ding Buwang, why is it so? Since I have established the law of royal succession, I will never change it again! ”

This is like a reassuring pill, which suddenly made Xu Lingyun's whole person feel at ease, after all, as the queen, she is also selfish, she hopes that her son can inherit the throne, although His Majesty is young and strong now, and there is no need to think about what will happen in a hundred years, but as a queen, she can't help but plan for her son's future.

"To Concubine Rong's side......"

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Yifeng looked at the other side of the sea, and then said.

"They are all my sons, I will naturally settle them well, even if they are poor, even if my son does not want the country's money, he can live without worrying about food and clothing for the rest of his life!"

In this regard, Zhu Yifeng can be said to be convinced, because he is very aware of the property owned by the royal family now, Alaska is the direct territory purchased by the royal family, and in the colony of Oceania, he also bought a large amount of land in northern Australia, of course, as well as those uninhabited deserts in the Arabian Peninsula, all of which were purchased in the way of "loss" by the royal family.

However, there is an unimaginable amount of wealth stored under those lands - hundreds of billions of tons of oil, enough to make the future imperial family of the Chinese Empire the richest royal family in the world, not only that, but the royal family's investment in the country is also extremely staggering, even now, the royal family can spend tens of millions of yuan a year on education, and it does not affect its industrial investment.

For other emperors in Chinese history, at most, they have only achieved "wealth from all over the world", but here, with insight beyond the times, Zhu Yifeng has successfully achieved "wealth rivals the country".

Of course, the more important point is that the royal family does not need to pay inheritance tax, and their sons and their descendants, no matter how they squander, cannot become poor, just like the Arab tyrants of later generations, even if they are so profligate, how can they ever become poor.

In the 21st century, will the imperial family of the Chinese Empire become synonymous with local tyrants?

Suddenly, thinking of the Internet era in the 21st century, how those Arab tyrants show off their wealth to the world, Zhu Yifeng couldn't help but be stunned.

When the time comes, will there be a willful future generation who will take money to play with singers or celebrities when he has nothing to do? At that time, in front of the palace in the imperial capital, will there be a supercar parked every specific day?

I'll go, this picture, how is it so disobedient!

However, Lao Tzu is also willing to live this day......

Suddenly, Zhu Yifeng even began to be jealous of his children and grandchildren, because they could enjoy many things that he couldn't enjoy in this era, at least, on their cruise ship, there would not only be dignified female officials, but their cruise ship should be Victoria's Secret Angels with hot bodies and beautiful faces.

Indeed, what else can they do a century and a half later? For them, maybe when the time comes, the royal family is just a title, just a title, as for the country, at that time, the constitutional system has already been implemented, and as members of the royal family, they are probably just like the Arab tyrants in another time and space, where they squander their wealth for a living.

Hey, after a long time, Lao Tzu is planning to let you enjoy!

No, I can't make it that easy for you!

What Lao Tzu hasn't enjoyed, you can't enjoy it easily!

Gotta figure it out!

Yes, you have to think of a way to make those kids become fools who can't do anything but show off their wealth on their computer screens or mobile phone screens.

We must find a way to maintain the vitality of the royal family, and we can't raise them like pigs...... This idea must be changed!

"Your Majesty, you said that Hai'er was so young that he would do the things of supervising the country, he, can he do it?"

Suddenly, Xu Lingyun began to suffer from gains and losses, she didn't notice the change in her husband's expression, after getting her husband's promise, she began to worry about her son in the imperial capital, after all, her son was only 12 years old, and he was not even 12 years old.

One hand wrapped around Xu Lingyun's slender waist,

"Yun'er, remember, he is my son! I believe in him! ”

Yes, son, I believe, but grandsons and great-grandchildren...... Although we must believe in them, we must also hone them, otherwise, I am afraid that such a hard work will really become "pig breeding", even if it is with their own money, they can't, the descendants of the Zhu family must not become local tyrants who can only show off their wealth, they must ...... At the very least, you should make a certain contribution to society, otherwise, how can you be worthy of being a member of the royal family!

"Your Majesty, are you really not worried about Hai'er causing any trouble?"

Xu Lingyun looked at His Majesty nervously, as if he was worried about what happened to his son, and in the end, the emperor would be dissatisfied with him, and even ......

"Yun'er, you remember!"

Looking at his wife, Zhu Yifeng repeated again in a serious tone.

"He is my son! I believe in him! ”
