At this time, Lu Ning didn't bother to care about these things, but after all, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was an agent in this colony, and it didn't seem to be appropriate.

So, he asked with a smile.

"According to the regulations, your family should all live in Yingtianfu, right?"

Ashikaga Yoshihiro said with all his heart, "Didn't you ask knowingly?" Aren't my wives and children, including the elderly in the family, all in Yingtianfu?

"Grandpa Guo is right, it's true, to put it bluntly, they are actually hostages, but I can understand what you are doing, and I have no resentment."

Lu Ning nodded, and then told him.

"Since that's the case, then there's nothing to say, according to the regulations, if she is your concubine, she should be sent to Yingtianfu now, if not, this person has nothing to do with you."

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu understood that Lu Ning was playing a word game, but he had no choice but to suffer this dumb loss.

So, he said to Lu Ning helplessly.

"I also accept this, the winner is the king, the loser is the villain, since I have returned to the Ming Dynasty, naturally there is nothing to say, but you can't let me not even have a woman by my side."

Lu Ning smiled very considerately, and then told Li Jinglong.

"Jiujiang, you take him to the mine to have a look, if there is any female miner you like, you can directly let him take it back as a concubine, and you don't need to send it to Yingtian."

Then, he looked at Ashikaga Yoshimitsu with a compassionate look and said.

"Well, Ashikaga General, I've done everything I can for you, and if you're not satisfied, there's nothing I can do."

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu thought in his heart, I greet your eight ancestors, but I don't dare to express anything.

made Ashikaga Yoshimitsu retreat very gloomily, who called it and couldn't beat it, so he had to be at the mercy of others.

Lu Ning glanced at the Niu Qianhu before speaking.

"Since this woman is a person from Dongying, she can only be used as a concubine, not as a main room, you just have a number in your heart, and you can retreat yourself."

After Niu Qianhu left, Lu Ning told Li Jinglong.

"The order was sent to all the officers of more than 100 households, and it was said that they said that they could rob Dongying women at will, but they must not be accepted as the main room, only as playthings."

Li Jinglong also meant the same, he thought of going with the master.

In his eyes, these Dongying women are not even qualified as playthings, they are just inferior races.

For this order, he carried it out very thoroughly, and even told these subordinate officers that anyone who made a mistake for playing with women would be directly punished by the palace.

At the same time, through mining operations, Dongying has at least tens of millions of catties of heavy metals, which have continuously entered Daming.

A large number of these heavy metals are gold and silver, as well as some iron and copper ores, which fill the treasury of the Ming Dynasty and also provide a lot of casting materials, Zhu Yuanzhang is naturally happy.

He immediately ordered that all the apprentices and generals under Lu Ning be promoted to one level.

As for Lu Ning, wait until the class teacher returns to the dynasty and then give the reward.

Meantime. He sent the crown prince Zhu Biao to Dongying to conduct a sacrifice army, read out the will of the imperial court, and rewarded meritorious generals.

Zhu Biao came to Lu Ning's big tent and saw Lu Ning taking a nap with a book in his hand and a cup of iconic sour plum soup in his hand.

He shook his head a little helplessly, then patted Lu Ning on the shoulder and said.

"Is this how you usually fight as a generalissimo? If you let the Imperial Historian know, it's time to impeach you again. ”

Lu Ning was a little absent-minded, and he said directly to Zhu Biao.

"Big brother, the words of those imperial historians can be regarded as farts, after all, if you point to them to fight on the front line, basically everything will be blinded."

Zhu Biao naturally agreed with this statement, he really understood the virtues of those officials.

After reading the holy decree, Lu Ning held a banquet here to entertain Zhu Biao.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the two chatted about the ores and metals produced by these mines, which made Zhu Biao very excited, he said.

"You have been made a great contribution by the imperial court this time, I really admire you very much, but do you have any other plans for these metals besides gold and silver?"

Lu Ning thought about it carefully and said to Zhu Biao.

"In fact, this is very simple, these heavy metals should open an arsenal in Yingtian to produce weapons in large quantities, and in the future, any second-line army in the Ming Dynasty can be equipped with Mauser guns, and this combat effectiveness is enough to shock the whole world."

Zhu Biao was extremely excited after hearing this, and he immediately clapped the board directly.

"My father has long said that you are exceptional, saying that these metals are freely blended by you except for gold and silver, and since this is the case, then this matter is so decided."

Lu Ning didn't say anything more, after all, he was only responsible for making ideas about this matter, and other officials from his own court went to preside over it.

So, he diligently persuaded Zhu Biao to drink.

"Big brother, doing everything will tire people to death, some things don't have to think about so much, let's just enjoy life."

Zhu Biao sighed, if he could really do this, why would he be tired like this.

As the crown prince of the current dynasty, he may be the most powerful prince in the history of the dynasty, and he is also the most trusted prince.

But because of this, the burden on his body has always been very heavy, so he never thought that he could have a rest Zhu Biao also felt a little sad when he thought of this, so he poured himself a drink, and then said to Lu Ning.

"In the future, I will ask Zi An Duoduo to help me, I really can't bear it, you also know your eldest brother's body."

That's it. Suddenly, there was a change in the style of painting, and Lu Ning glanced at Zhu Biao with some depression.

Historically, this is a prince who died young, but he will definitely try to prolong his life.

"Big brother, don't think about it so much, as long as the younger brother is still in the day, I will definitely not let you work too hard, I will try my best to share the work for you."

Zhu Biao sighed, he knew that Lu Ning was also a person who was used to being idle, and it was not easy to have this promise.

So, he changed the topic and asked Lu Ning.

"Since you want to set up an arsenal, you must choose a very capable hall official to be in charge of this matter, if it is a mediocre person, it will definitely not work, it is better for Zi'an to choose one for me."

Lu Ning said almost without thinking.

"Big brother, what do you think of Lan Tianping, the editor-in-chief of Yingtian Evening News, he is also a general, and he is also very effective in handling errands now."

Zhu Biao knew that Lan Tianping and Lu Ning were good friends, and this recommendation was reasonable.

What's more, since the errand boy, Lan Tianping's performance is actually remarkable, so he readily agreed.

"Since you think it's okay, then you can trust your brother, so set up this arsenal as a third-grade yamen, and let Lan Tianping come to be this hall official."
