Hearing the words of the third child, even Zhu Zhanji, who was the mastermind of everything, widened his eyes at this time.

"Do you say again, is it the rubber tires, or is it just a silhouette?"

Faced with Zhu Zhanji's question, the third Zhu Zhanyong suddenly smiled and said: "It's all done!" ”

As the third Zhu Zhanyong's words fell, Zhu Zhanji suddenly shouted happily: "Beautiful! ”

"Well done!"

"You kid has done so many things, and this time it's the most beautiful!"

After hearing the good news, Zhu Zhanji, at this time, the whole person was excited to turn back and forth in this room.

Others don't know the role of tires, but he Zhu Zhanji knows it.

With rubber tires, many of his plans can be officially on the right track.

First of all, the intuitive change is reflected in the land access.

For all this, Zhu Zhanji had already begun to renovate the roads inside the Ming Dynasty more than half a year ago.

Although half a year is not much for the entire Ming Dynasty and the large-scale straight road leading to all parts of the Ming Dynasty.

I can't stand the crowd.

The nature of 100 people cultivating and 1 million people cultivating is completely different.

At the very least, the first straight road from Beijing to Mobei has now been basically completed.

As for the transformation of Mobei, Yu Qian has complained to him many times.

Nowadays, the biggest problem in the development of Mobei is the scarcity of materials.

The land of Mobei is too vast and the area is too large.

To develop it as much as possible on such a large piece of land, the amount of material consumed is simply astronomical.

And Mobei didn't even have a city before this.

Not to mention any supplies.

Therefore, all they can rely on is transportation from the interior of the Ming Dynasty.

But there is a cost to transportation.

And very large.

To put it simply, 100 catties of grain were transported from Beijing to Mobei, which was not enough for the soldiers who transported the supplies.

This invisibly increases the burden on all parties.

Although all these silver coins are made by the imperial court.

But Yu Qian was really anxious.

He was in urgent need of supplies, and finally the imperial court approved it, and it also approved a lot.

But when it comes to him, it's already thankful that there can be fifty or sixty percent.

Therefore, every time Yu Qian handed the fold to the imperial court, he would complain about this matter.

Zhu Zhanji is even accustomed to this.

But now it's fine.

The completion of rubber tires is absolutely a game-changer for transportation.

Of course, the use of rubber is not only reflected in transportation.

These things are used in many places in life.

But at the moment everything is still in the research and development stage.

The success of rubber tires is undoubtedly a precedent for the use of rubber.

Even if there is no follow-up, just say that the successful development of rubber tires this time is absolutely epoch-making.

Because Zhu Zhanji knows very well that the level of a country's productive forces is often due to transportation restrictions.

This is also why later generations often say that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.

Because transportation is the cornerstone of development.

Without a good transportation situation, industrialization is difficult to develop.

It's good now.

Rubber tires are done!

Although it cannot be said that it will be put into large-scale production immediately, now it is only successful in research and development, and the next step is to solve the problems faced by large-scale production, but as long as the technology is mature, large-scale production is only a matter of time.

Thinking of this, the smile on Zhu Zhanji's face never disappeared, and he was full of joy.

Seeing that his eldest brother hadn't been so happy and excited for a long time as he was today, Zhu Zhanyong was also happy on the side.

Zhu Zhanji, who had a good time in his own heart, also immediately said to the third Zhu Zhanyong: "This time, you are a great merit, you must be rewarded!" Not only to reward you, but also those craftsmen who are responsible for research and development, all those who participate in the research and development of rubber tires will be rewarded with 500 Xuande money each! ”

"A property in the city!"

"In addition, a medal will be awarded, a first-class meritorious service medal of the Ming Dynasty!"

"The main planning and R&D personnel, the name is a monument, and it will be remembered forever!"

Although the third brother Zhu Zhanyong knew that his eldest brother attached great importance to this rubber tire, he really didn't expect that his eldest brother would value it to such an extent!

It's just a reward for money and a house.

Anyway, now the Ming court is not short of money.

Although the amount is not small, it is also very generous.

But the significance of this monument is different.

This thing, his third child is very clear, in order to improve the specifications of this monument, so Zhu Zhanji is very strict with those who can climb this monument.

Even in the entire Ming Dynasty, except for the generals who recovered China during the time of Taizu, even if it was the old man of his own family, there are only three or five people who can go to this monument.

But now, his eldest brother directly let all the main personnel of this planning and research and development be on the monument.

At this point, his third child, Zhu Zhanyong, really didn't expect it.

Even I was a little skeptical. 、

"Big brother, isn't this a bit too rewarding? After all, it is all developed according to the method of the eldest brother, and the reward money and real estate are forgotten, this is a monument, I am afraid that some people will gossip about the eldest brother in the future. ”

However, Zhu Zhanji didn't care about the words of the third child.

He even said very firmly: "The world doesn't know the value of this rubber tire, but I know that they want to scold and gossip, so let them say it, and then they will know the importance of this rubber tire." ”

"Besides, my move is also to make a drama of buying horse bones."

"Tell the people of the world, tell all those craftsmen in the imperial court, the honors that officials and generals can have, they can get it here!"

"As long as they are meritorious, I, Zhu Zhanji, will never be stingy with rewards!"

"Not to mention that it is a monument in the name, even if it is a marquis in the future, it is not impossible!"

Seeing that his eldest brother said this, the third Zhu Zhanyong only chose to nod.

As far as he is concerned, he is naturally happy that those under his command can be rewarded.

The reason why I took the initiative to say that just now was entirely because I thought about the problem from the perspective of my eldest brother Zhu Zhanji.

Afraid that the world will question whether there is moisture in his monument.

After all, the person who can climb that monument is not a strange person who has been famous for thousands of years.

But since his eldest brother has his own considerations, this matter is not something that he Zhu Zhanyong needs to consider.

"Done!"

"Since you have figured it out, I won't say much about the third brother."

"But, big brother, you have rewarded all these people under me, but you don't mention how to reward me?"

Listening to the words of the third child, Zhu Zhanji was also happy at the moment, and suddenly laughed and said: "I said it just now, reward, I want to reward you, let's say, what reward do you kid want?" ”

Facing his eldest brother's words, Zhu Zhanyong, this kid, really didn't know what to order.

In recent days, he has been pestered by his eldest brother with various errands.

Now that all his mind is devoted to his errands, he doesn't have the leisure to think about these things at all.

So when Zhu Zhanji asked him like this, he really didn't know what he wanted.

After thinking for a long time, he finally said: "That's it, there has been a shortage of silver in my house recently, if you think it's okay, big brother, you can use some silver as you like." As for the rest, we can't think of anything for the time being, let's make a note for the time being, and then talk about it later, how about it? ”

At this time, Zhu Zhanji didn't talk nonsense with him, and even said: "Just do as you say!" ”

"Zhao Quan!"

"In!"

"Go, pass on my will, and order Xia Yuanji to give our Yue prince a reward of 10,000 yuan from the household department, don't let others say that I, the eldest brother, have treated my own brother badly."

Zhao Quan, who heard Zhu Zhanji's order, hurriedly took the errand and ran towards Xia Yuanji.

And Zhu Zhanyong immediately thanked Zhu Zhanji.

If the amount of 10,000 yuan is calculated according to the previous amount, it is really not worth much.

But the problem is that now after the restructuring of Xuande coins, there are a lot of 10,000 dollars.

One tael of silver is equal to one penny, ten thousand dollars, this is ten thousand taels of silver.

A casual reward is 10,000 taels of silver, which used to be a few thousandths of the imperial court's annual finances, and this reward is definitely a lot.

After saying this, Zhu Zhanji also immediately explained to the third child, saying: "Although this rubber tire has been done, but in the future, the scale will be carried out, and you must grasp this matter, and you must reach the conditions for large-scale production in the shortest possible time." ”

"In addition, the number of rubber trees should also be increased as soon as possible, at least to meet the amount consumed by large-scale production."

"Also, the tires are done, and the bicycles, tricycles, steam cars, and steam trains you told you before must be improved as soon as possible, especially the steam trains, the technology has been mature for a long time, and there was already a model when it was in Nanjing, but now there has been no progress, and this matter must not be delayed."

"If you have merit, you must be rewarded, but if you have a mistake and do not act, you must also be punished!"

"No matter how much money the court has, it will never raise any idler, you must remember this clearly."

Listening to his eldest brother's chattering lesson, the third Zhu Zhanyong suddenly had a helpless face and no love.

Get.

I thought that I could make my eldest brother happy and happy by running over in person.

But I never thought that the eldest brother was happy.

But this joy began to send him errands again.

Originally, there were already a lot of errands on hand, but now they have increased.

Of course, Zhu Zhanji is actually clear about this.

After thinking about it, he said to the third child: "By the way, some of the errands in your hands actually overlap with the Ministry of Industry, and the errands on your side really can't be grasped, so you can coordinate with the Ministry of Industry." ”

"But I only have one request, no matter how I coordinate, none of these things can be delayed."

"When the matter is delayed, even if it is your kid's problem, I will also be held accountable!"

Hearing this, the third child, Zhu Zhanyong, sighed again and said, "Brother has an order!" ”

Although he has a lot of gossip with Zhu Zhanji on weekdays, he also giggles on the surface.

But whether it is Zhu Zhanji or the third Zhu Zhanyong himself, he is actually measured in his heart.

For Zhu Zhanji, the right thing is the right thing, and the feeling is the feeling.

It can't be said that the business is delayed because of feelings.

If so, you simply don't do anything.

And the third brother Zhu Zhanyong also knows this, it doesn't matter how he plays hip-hop with his eldest brother on weekdays, but when it comes to business, his third brother has never really messed around.

Although they are brothers, they are also kings and ministers.

Then Zhu Zhanji and the third Zhu Zhanyong made some detailed explanations about the next things, and the third child left in a hurry.

And after the third child left, Zhu Zhanji's mind was full of those rubber tires.

This matter is too important, even if I heard these news from the mouth of the third child, I still couldn't help but run away again.

It wasn't until he saw that the rubber tires had reached the point where they could be inflated and deflated as the direction he had given before, and Zhu Zhanji's hanging heart finally fell.

With these, it is not too difficult to get some simple human-powered tricycles and bicycles.

Although none of these things can meet the needs of long-distance transportation.

But it can also drive regional transportation in a short period of time, including the daily transportation needs of people in the city.

Tricycles, in particular, are still very practical for some vendors.

What to load a cargo, it is very convenient.

Zhu Zhanji, who was in a whim, was not in a hurry to leave.

After all, these things are completely innovative research and development from zero to one for others.

But for Zhu Zhanji, it is a copy.

Therefore, in order to be able to ride the first bicycle of the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, Zhu Zhanji personally stayed here and began to develop these together with craftsmen.

But now that Zhu Zhanji, who is the emperor, has suddenly disappeared, the officials in the court are in a hurry.

Especially that Yang Shiqi.

Originally, he was the secretary of the military department, but now he was ordered by Zhu Zhanji to form a new navy.

It's been a busy time these days.

Because the construction of warships in the navy must be made on the seaside docks, which is more convenient.

And the capital is an inland city.

So Yang Shiqi is often running at both ends of the capital and the seaside.

It's been a long time, and I'm physically and mentally exhausted.

After all, the passage of ancient times was not a simple matter for people.

It's even more tiring than doing some physical work.

Recently, with the technical help of the firearms research yamen, Yang Shiqi finally finalized the form of the final warship artillery.

According to the possible future naval battles, corresponding arrangements and assumptions were made.

For example, the type of warship, the size of the warship, the size of the warship fleet.

However, although Yang Shiqi had thought about these things, everything still needed the personal consent of Zhu Zhanji, the emperor, before it could officially start.

Therefore, Yang Shiqi, who came back from the beach in a hurry this time, was able to explain clearly to Zhu Zhanji in person, and then give his will as soon as possible, so that he could officially start construction there.

You know, countless naval officers are still waiting for the warship to go to sea.

Without warships, their so-called navy would be just landlubbers on land.
