"Meet my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "The four of them kowtowed together, but the process of seeing the ceremony was full of doubts, two Jinshi, one lifter, and one Tessie missionary, this combination is really too weird, what is the important thing for His Majesty to summon them? These people thought uneasily.

Sun Yuanhua and Wang Zheng are quite accomplished in the study of firearms, and then think of the fact that His Majesty also relied on firearms to defeat Huang Taiji when he drove the expedition, so he already had a rough guess about the purpose of summoning the two of them, whether it was out of curiosity about technology or the desire to establish meritorious deeds, both of them had an extremely strong interest in this matter.

And Song Yingxing has been repeatedly hit by the imperial examinations, but now he has been brought to the palace by the people of Dongchang, so the heart of fame that has been dormant for a long time has become eager again, and he secretly guesses why he has entered the eyes of His Majesty? What kind of responsibilities will you assign to yourself? Whatever it is, you must seize this opportunity.

John Tang is the most eager one of these people, he came to Daming from Taixi thousands of miles away, just to spread the glory of God, and after years of hard work with little effect, now he has the opportunity to meet the emperor of the Ming Empire, as long as he can be persuaded to convert to God, then the glory of God can not immediately shine on the entire Eastern world? However, because of the tenacity cultivated over the years, John Tang concealed his emotions very well, and did not rashly talk about preaching, but made up his mind to do his best and all the missionaries who came to Daming to gain the favor and trust of His Majesty the Emperor first.

"Everyone, give me a seat." Li You was also very happy to see these people, these were the talents he needed, and hurriedly asked the eunuch to set up a few stools for the four of them to sit down.

"Do you know what I have asked you to do?" After they sat down cautiously, Li You asked, secretly recalling the information of these people as he asked.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, but do you want Weichen and Liangfu (Wang Zheng's character) to preside over the firearms?" Sun Yuanhua was not restrained, and directly said his thoughts, "I have heard for a long time that Your Majesty easily defeated Huang Taiji's 100,000 army with firearms in Zunhua, and Weichen and Liangfu have long been yearning for it, and when the army just returned to Beijing earlier, Weichen and Liangfu still wanted to go to the barracks to see it, but unfortunately they were unceremoniously driven away by the soldiers guarding the door. ”

The actions of these soldiers also made Sun Yuanhua and Wang Zheng feel incredible, with the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, where are there still barracks that they can't enter? When he was in Ningyuan, the various armaments of the Guanning Army were not a secret to him, but if he thought that this army was the same as the Guanning Army, how could His Majesty win easily in Zunhua?

"That's right, you two don't have to worry about not having the opportunity to see these new firearms now." Li You did not comment on the two of them trespassing into the Beijing camp, if they criticized the two of them, they would inevitably feel that they had lost face, and it was even more impossible to criticize the Beijing camp, and this kind of behavior should be commended, "I plan to set up an ordnance bureau near the capital, which is responsible for the research and manufacture of new types of firearms, I wonder if Mr. Sun and Mr. Wang are willing to give in?" ”

In fact, Li You has the manufacturing drawings and process secrets of these firearms, and there are also talents who specialize in this in the Song army, but they are all people who will leave sooner or later, so these things still have to be dominated by the local courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, and I hope that they can master these as soon as possible during this time.

"Weichen obeys the order, please rest assured that the two of us will definitely handle this matter." You can satisfy your own interests, and you can also establish meritorious deeds for the imperial court to realize your ambitions, such an opportunity is rare, Sun Yuanhua and Wang Zheng exchanged a little look, and they gladly accepted the order to thank him.

"Well, I have asked Cao Huachun to find a good place for you outside the city, and after you have arranged your own affairs, let Cao Huachun take you to office, and I will also arrange competent people to help you and the two of you." There are coal and other mineral deposits near the capital, which can meet their basic needs for the time being, and the reason why Cao Huachun took them there is because this matter must be kept secret, and the secrecy of this base is Cao Huachun himself in charge.

In this era, the Ming literati had an extremely indifferent sense of secrecy, so Li You would never give them drawings and other materials before they entered the base.

After sending Sun Yuanhua and Wang Zheng away, Li You set his eyes on Song Yingxing again, "I have long heard that Mr. Song has a lot of research in agriculture and hundreds of labors, so this time I have to hand over another more important matter than the study of firearms to Mr. Song." Song Yingxing's future book "Heavenly Creations" is an encyclopedia of agriculture and handicrafts, and Song Yingxing would not have been able to write this book without a solid basic knowledge and extensive knowledge.

"Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, I have admitted a lot of champions, but there are few people who can leave their names for future generations, as long as Mr. Song can do this well, I think that Mr. Song's name in the history books will overshadow all the champions of my Ming Dynasty and even the previous thousand years." Li You knew that Song Yingxing had always regarded his failure to be admitted to the Jinshi as his biggest regret, so he came up with such words to motivate him, these words obviously had the desired effect, and Song Yingxing's face flushed and excited after hearing it.

Li You beckoned, Cao Huachun hurriedly held a tray in front of Song Yingxing, there was a sweet potato and a potato on the tray, "These two things have just entered my Ming Dynasty not long ago, there are not many farmers who plant them, and they can't play the maximum role of the two things, if they are planted properly, the yield of these two things per mu is not less than a thousand catties, if they can be planted extensively, then the people of my Ming Dynasty can no longer have hunger worries, Mr. Song is willing to be responsible for this matter?" ”

Li You also has a little bit of information about the cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes, relying on these materials and Song Yingxing's talent, I believe that the name of the Sweet Potato Emperor will never fall on Kang Mazi's head again.

"The students are grateful, and the students will handle this well." Song Yingxing knew a lot about farming, and of course he understood the value of this task, so he immediately responded, and Li You also allocated him a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing and asked him to concentrate on this matter.

Sun Yuanhua, Wang Zheng and Song Yingxing successively accepted the task and left, and finally it was Tang Ruowang's turn, Li You took a sip of tea to moisten his throat a little, and then looked at Tang Ruowang and said, "Mr. Tang, do you know what happened to me inviting you from Shaanxi?" ”
