"Your Majesty, now that the first ship has been launched, what should we do next?" Commander Wei withdrew his gaze from the shock and said to Chen Chen. (8) ┡Δ』ΩΩ(一)┡中Δ文网 .81.

Chen Chen nodded and smiled: "Now that the first ship has been launched, then the next step is to make more ships, and then go on overseas expeditions, explore new routes, and explore new paths for the country's commercial exhibition." ”

"Your Majesty, the price of making a ship is also quite large, so the merchant ships are also made like this, so isn't it a bit expensive." Commander Wei frowned, if a new route is opened up in the future, then commercial ships will definitely play a huge role, so how should commercial ships be planned?

"I built this ship mainly to participate in the struggle for supremacy at sea, and at the same time to provide maritime security for our country. As for the commercial ships, they must be made of wood, and some key parts can be made of steel. Chen Chen said with a slight smile.

The production of commercial ships must have been borrowed from the Netherlands. When he was reading the history books, he once remembered that when the Holland and the British were fighting for supremacy at sea, the British ships were mainly spears and cannons, and they could not carry much cargo, but the Dutch ships had a particularly large belly and could carry more cargo, but every trip they made became an adventure.

As for Dongshui, once the maritime trade is carried out at that time, then the commercial ships must be made in imitation of the Dutch ships, and the warring team that protects the commercial ships must be made in imitation of the British ships, and the two must be combined to complement each other's advantages, so as to better play their role.

After watching the excitement, everyone also rode bicycles back to their respective homes, and Chen Chen also returned to the palace with Dongshui's officials.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, today is a new era for our East Water, our first ship has finally been launched." Prime Minister Shangguan Yu stepped forward to congratulate Chen Chen.

Other officials also hurriedly stepped forward to express their cheerfulness to Chen Chen.

Chen Chen laughed: "No, no, no, it's not the time to celebrate, it's just the beginning." Because in the future, we will build more ships, and at the same time, we will vigorously develop maritime trade, so that the resources from overseas can be used by the whole country of our eastern waters, and further improve our productivity and the living standards of our people. ”

"Your Majesty! Dongshui will definitely become even stronger under the leadership of His Majesty. The big and small officials hurriedly knelt down and blessed.

"Alright, let's all get up." Chen Chen was also quite proud: "Now that the first ship has been successfully manufactured, then immediately send an order to let the factory immediately continue to manufacture ships according to this specification, and tell them not to worry about the financial resources." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers will be in charge." The official who specializes in shipbuilding immediately replied.

"Wait until the ship is ready. Then you can explore overseas, then the manufacturing industry of this port must speed up, and now that the whole country has been stable and unified, and the life of crops in various places is also stable, then it is time to discuss the matter of moving the capital. Chen Chen's eyes glanced at everyone and said.

Prime Minister Shangguan Yu immediately said: "Your Majesty, don't you want to move the capital to Lushui Island?" It's a bit dangerous that there's been a massive change there, so let's choose a good place in the coastal area. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, now that half of the Green Water Island has disappeared, a new island has been created, and we don't know what will happen to this new island, for the sake of safety, let's find a good place on the waterfront according to the Prime Minister's advice."

Chen Chen shook his head and smiled: "Alas, do you know why I have to choose that place? Because the water is deep and calm, it is especially suitable for building a natural harbor, and it is also a transportation artery. If the time comes to develop tourism in that place and build a holiday paradise, then Dongshui can welcome rich people from all over the world to visit and spend here, which can not only improve our image, but also get a lot of income. ”

Chen Chen looked at the map in his mind, the island is really a traffic artery, if it is opened, then it can bring a lot of income by virtue of tourism, tourism it belongs to the tertiary industry, its investment is small and the return is large, it is a very good choice to make money, since there is this resource now, so why not use it.

"But there's a lot going on there, and we don't know." Shangguan Yu and the others still wanted to further persuade Chen Chen to change his mind.

But Chen Chen's mind is now full of tourist paradise, white sand beaches, beautiful coconut palms and bikini beauties, how can he listen to others.

"Okay, I've made up my mind, and no one is allowed to make irresponsible comments." Chen Chen slapped the table and said in an old-fashioned manner.

Officials big and small looked at Chen Chen's appearance, and they all wondered for a while, His Majesty usually seems to be so shrewd, why is he so stubborn and confused in this matter today, but His Majesty's order has been issued, so it is useless for them to oppose it, if they forcibly oppose it again, then it may attract His Majesty's disgust, which is not conducive to their future official career, these people are human spirits, and they naturally understand that it is impossible not to listen to His Majesty's words at this moment.

There were also a few people who set their eyes on Commander Wei and the others, hoping that they would stand up and say a few words.

Commander Wei watched some people pay attention to himself, and immediately understood what these people meant, and hurriedly stood up and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry about Your Majesty's decision, Dongshui Exhibition has hardly done anything foolish for so many years, and this plan to move the capital was also set a long time ago, and it has not been able to be implemented due to time and other problems, but now that there is a chance to implement it, then it must be implemented, and everyone should not have any worries." ”

"Yes, your ministers are presumptuous." As soon as the big and small officials heard Commander Wei say this, they naturally had no opinions.

Chen Chen nodded and said, "Then clean up here as soon as possible, and then start to let the workers and others move to Green Water Island, and let the major businessmen also prepare to move!" The surplus labor force from all over the country should also be relocated to Green Water Island, and officials of all sizes must not have the right to use them for free, and the wages must be paid as usual. ”

"Yes." Everyone agreed in unison.

Historical records: In the XX year of the founding, His Majesty Chen moved the capital, the officials went together, and the people supported them, all of whom took the initiative to contribute. (To be continued.) )
