Chapter 40: Growth
No way! It really deserves to be the first money rake in the Ming Dynasty, and you can make money anywhere! It's just like squeezing oil out of a stone!
Hongji looked at the dumbfounded Xie Qian, and was proud in his heart. Wei'er, this child, well, is the good fortune boy that God has given me!
Xu Pu smiled: "Your Highness, is there any change in the functions and powers of the Trademark Office in the future?" ”
Hua Houwei nodded: "Don't say it, you can't say it, if you say it, it won't work!" ”
Xu Pu laughed, and Chong Hongzhi bowed his hand with satisfaction: "Your Majesty is far-sighted, and the old minister is impressed!" Lao Chen will go back to write an excerpt and play the necessity of trademark registration! ”
Hongzhi also laughed, this Xu Pu, I really didn't choose the wrong one. So he looked at Xie Qian with a smile: "Xie Aiqing, what do you mean?" ”
Xie Qian was still brainstorming, listening to Hongzhi's questioning, and subconsciously blurted out: "Your Majesty, there are a few joints that the ministers haven't figured out yet, but Your Majesty loves the fists of our courtiers, and I already have a deep understanding." The minister has no objection, the boss plays, and the minister seconds! ”
Well, it still needs to be experienced! However, there is no need to question courage, learning, and loyalty, and when Houzhao ascends the throne, he will definitely be a cadre! Hongzhi nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Xie Qian's gaze becoming more and more gentle: "Xie Aiqing, if you don't understand anything, ask Xu Ge Lao more." The Ming Dynasty still has to pass on the torch, the more capable you are, the easier it will be for me. ”
After bidding farewell to Hongzhi, Xu Pu and Xie moved out of the Wenhua Palace. Xie Qian looked around on the road and said softly, "Boss, what did the emperor ask you?" ”
Xu Pu shook his head: "Yu Qiao, this is not the place to talk, after the next duty, you and I have a drink or two, what can't you say?" ”
Not to mention that Xie Qian and Xu Pu had an appointment, after Hongzhi and the others left, he called Hua Houwei: "Go, accompany my father to the imperial garden for a walk!" Thick photos, you can come too. ”
The father and son walked into the Imperial Garden, and at this moment the Imperial Garden was already full of spring. Yueji, peonies, peonies, and grasses have already pulled out green shoots, and unknown insects in the air are buzzing.
"Wei'er, what is coking coal?"
Hua Houwei knew that Xu Deqiang had already reported, and the road to a rich country and a strong army was about to set sail. So he pinched a piece of tender shoots and said with a smile: "Dad, coking coal is very powerful." To build a magic weapon, all rely on coking coal. ”
Hongzhi shook his head in disappointment: "Wei'er, one or two divine weapons are not beneficial to the country, you don't want to get these arrogant and lustful things." ”
Hua Houwei smiled: "Dad, not one or two, but all weapons!" ”
Hongji paused, breathing a little heavily: "What? You repeat? ”
"Dad, in the past, the cost of ironmaking was too high, and it was illegal, so our Daming's knives and guns were not sharp. But this coking coal reserves are large, the cost will become very low, and we don't need to understand the reason, as long as it is easy to use. Coking coal and ironmaking, it is 10,000 catties a day, all of them are good steel, Dad, who in the world can stop the Ming soldiers? ”
Hongji's eyes were full of excitement, since he succeeded to the throne, Wenzhi is absolutely enough, only this martial arts is still far behind. If you really want to be like what Hua Houwei said, the army has changed its outfit in an all-round way, and the soldiers surrender everywhere, then you can be comparable to the Qin Emperor and Han Wu! "Zhu Houwei, what you said is true?"
Hua Houwei smiled and pointed at Zhu Houzhao: "Brother also went with me that day, you ask Brother!" ”
Zhu Houzhao was straining against a peony, turned his head and smiled: "Father, I haven't seen the coking coal that my brother said, but I have a treasure knife made of manganese steel." Such a thick copper plate can be chopped open with a knife, which is really amazing! ”
Hongzhi's eyes suddenly turned red, and he pulled up Zhu Houzhao: "Go, see your treasure knife!" ”
Hua Houwei grabbed the excited Hongzhi: "Dad, what are you anxious about?" And the good stuff too! ”
"You bastard! How dare you use the storytelling set on your father? Say! Carefully, I peeled your skin! ”
Hua Houwei was not afraid at all, and giggled: "Dad, I found manganese ore." This thing is added to molten iron, and the steel that comes out is invincible, and my brother's treasure knife is made of high manganese steel! Also, I found Xu Deqiang to make a handcuff, which is light and sharp, six projectiles can be completed in an instant, with a radius of three or five zhang, no matter how powerful you are, you can only die of hatred! ”
I grass! Is there such a thing? Hongzhi was really anxious, and his eyes narrowed: "Wei'er, do you control the person who built it?" ”
Hua Houwei was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No." No one can do this, and I don't have that power without me! ”
Hongji sighed: "Alas! You idiot! There are so many good things for nothing! Yinjiang! ”
Whoosh, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared beside the father and son, kneeling on one knee: "Long live!" ”
"Go, all the drawings of Wei'er have been seen, and the coking coal process is known..."
"Dad, there's also a craftsman in the quenching room!" Zhu Houzhao reminded loudly.
"Oh, and the craftsmen in the quenching room, all under control. Go ahead! ”
Hua Houwei was stunned and watched the figure disappear suddenly, Hongzhi shook his head: "You are still young after all, your father taught you a trick." The king does not lose his country, and the minister does not lose his body. It's nothing else, how dare you let go of something as powerful as a handcuff? Once it spreads, three or five people are holding handcuffs, hehe, the emperor is also flesh and blood! ”
Hua Houwei's head was dripping with sweat, which he really hadn't thought about! I just remember that in the western, the cowboy is holding a revolver and is majestic, completely forgetting that in this era, the revolver is the number one killer! "Dad, I was wrong. Don't dare anymore! I'll get something new later, I'll show you first. ”
Hongzhi saw that Hua Houwei sincerely admitted his mistake, and nodded with relief: "Wei'er, fortunately you are my son, otherwise you know what will happen to you, right?" ”
"Know! If I deal with it, it must be dark, and I can't get out of supervision wherever I go. I get these all my life, I can't get things out and I starve, and I can't spend the money when I get things. Hua Houwei lowered his head, his voice revealing frustration.
"If you know! Wei'er, we are the emperor's family, we must have the consciousness of the emperor's family, and be cautious in everything we say and do! ”
Hua Houwei nodded solemnly, but Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "Father, it doesn't matter if you play once in a while, right?" It's too boring to be careful all day! ”
The angry Hongji frowned, but he still withdrew his hand: "Houzhao!" The emperor must not be greedy for pleasure, or you will kill yourself! ”
"yes, got it."
Not to mention Hongzhi's godson, Xie Qian finally survived to the next duty, and quickly went home to change clothes. I didn't know what gift to buy, so I carried a food box and went straight to Xu Pu's house.
Xu Pu came out to greet him, and when he saw the food box Xie Qian was carrying, he was stunned and laughed: "Yu Qiao, are you really carrying a pig's head?" ”
Xie Qian pretended to be shy: "Boss, the lower officials are shy in their pockets, and forgive them." After all, this is also meat, isn't it? ”
