Zhao Li, the ambassador of Jinxian Iron and Iron Institute, stood behind Mao Xiang, saw that the will was announced, stepped forward, and saluted Zhu Rong:

"The minister invited the craftsmen of Datong, lived up to the expectations of the King of Qi, and really smelted iron!"

"How much can you refine?"

"It turns out that two thousand catties of iron sand can produce six hundred catties of evil gold, but according to what King Qi said, the furnace has been changed, and two thousand catties of iron sand can produce one thousand catties of evil gold." Zhao Li's voice was excited and choked, he looked up at Zhu Rong, and couldn't help but share it with him.

"I only added 400 catties."

Zhao Li's smile froze on his face.

Zhu Rong thought about it carefully, the smelting principle has not changed, the smelting technology has reached a very high level during the Warring States period, and excellent craftsmen can make it according to his method.

Maybe it is related to the size of the furnace, the capacity is large, and the iron is more, but it is difficult for the furnace to heat up, and Daming's bellows technology may not be able to achieve it.

However, the results are not bad now.

Each furnace increased by 400 catties, an increase of nearly doubled, the people had farm tools to cultivate the fields, could afford to buy millet rice, could afford to pay taxes, and the imperial court's finances were relaxed, which may be able to fundamentally solve the problem of treasure money.

Zhu Yu laughed out loud, and others didn't know why.

"The minister Meng Qi Wang Enyin, promoted to a first-class grade, is now the chief ambassador of the thirteen iron smelting institutes, Yu Lu also added a hundred stones, Yang Deputy Envoy was promoted to ambassador, enjoy the income plus fifty stones, specially to thank the King of Qi."

Zhao Li said from the bottom of his heart, and did not forget to bow at Zhu Yu after speaking.

Zhu Yan was a little disdainful and sent them away.

Liu Jiu put down the brocade plate, picked up the gold-patterned silk robe, unbuttoned it, and looked surprised, "Your Highness, this satin is so smooth and tender, you can try it quickly, if it doesn't fit, the slave will send it to the Shangyi Division to change it." ”

Zhu Yu put out a big character, and Liu Jiu put on a robe for him, tied up a white jade belt, put on black soap shoes, and stood in front of the bronze mirror.

Say a word against your will, and that little white goose can be worthy of being lonely.

The regular clothes and casual clothes worn by the vassal kings, although they also came from the Shangyi Prison, were not royal gifts, and this gold-patterned silk robe was worn during special sacrifices, which was special among the clothes of the kings.

Two days later, the Imperial Temple sacrifice soon began.

The Ministry of Rites made the sacrifice very frugal, accompanied by not many officials and inspectors, Hu Weiyong, the head of the hundred officials, did not go, and most of the officials who were hand-picked were officials from the Ministry of Rites and Guanglu Temple.

"Seventh brother, do you know why my father came to worship?"

"After the completion of the Imperial Temple, my father came once, but this time I don't know why."

"Agriculture is the foundation of all industries, the imperial court tax has not been able to collect, many political affairs can not be implemented because of the extravagance, now the amount of iron smelting has increased, can be issued to the state and county officials a batch of agricultural tools, of course the emperor is happy."

Zhu Biao and Zhu Rong were in the same car.

The streets of the capital are lively, quite prosperous, the people wear coarse clothes and kneel to greet them, many Mongolians moved to the south of the Yangtze River during the Yuan Dynasty, so they still retain the legacy of wearing leather clothes.

It is worth mentioning that when the imperial temple was established, Zhu Yuanzhang also put Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, in.

After coming to the Imperial Temple, the officials bowed, and Zhu Yuanzhang got off the car with a solemn expression and walked towards the Imperial Temple.

Zhu Yu and Zhu Biao followed behind Zhu Yuanzhang solemnly.

Come to the incense hall dedicated to Emperor Xian.

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand, took the sandalwood handed by Zhang Chip, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and looked at the tablet and the statue in front of him.

"We heard that the Qingming Dynasty, the eyes and ears are open, the dim world, the wisdom is blinded, and the Yuan lost the world because the established system cannot sympathize with the suffering of the people, we are here today to tell you that we want to establish a clear and pure dynasty."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the tablet above, just like a reprimand to a loser.

Then, he rolled up his sleeves and put on incense.

Zhu Yu raised his head, and his father put a stick of incense on Kublai Khan, and did not deliberately snub and humiliate him because he was the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.

Sacrifice is because there is something to pray.

Throughout the ages, it has been believed that the divine right of the monarch is bestowed, and the throne of the Son of Heaven is given by God.

Zhu Yuanzhang hopes that under his own governance, the world will be clear and clear, and the remnants of the northern forces will be swept away, Xu Da and Zhu Di will be able to triumphantly master the class, and all the kings will be virtuous......

He said a lot.

Zhu Yan listened beside him, and couldn't help but say in his heart, the fourth brother will definitely win.

He has military vision, talent and judgment, and he rose to prominence when he was in the military camp, and although the third brother is also talented, he is not as brave as the fourth brother.

"Lang'er, go to the Wenwu Hall and put on a pillar of incense."

Zhu Yuanzhang said suddenly.

The Wenwu Hall enshrines 37 famous ministers of the past dynasties, all of whom are famous people in history.

Zhu Biao glanced sideways at Zhu Rong, Zhu Rong snorted, retreated, came to the Wenwu Palace, and suddenly the memories of the previous life appeared, and I don't know if the previous life still retains this place.

How much do tickets sell for?

Zhang Chip, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, lit a bunch of incense, bowed down and handed it to Zhu Rong, and heard that Jinxian's iron smelting was effective, so His Majesty came to worship.

He looked at Zhu Yu and judged with his eyes that he would be a virtuous vassal king in the future.

Such a person, he has a heart to befriend.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qi, the sacrifice must be sincere, you ...... You're so perfunctory. ”

Zhu Yu inserted the incense into the ashes of the stove and was about to go out, but was reprimanded by Zhang Chip, and suddenly stopped.

"When Gu came in just now, he had already greeted them very politely, has Lord Zhang heard of sincerity? The important thing is not the form, don't believe you ask them? ”

Of course, Zhang Chip didn't believe such nonsense, he planned to retract his evaluation of Zhu Rong just now, and walked out with his sleeves brushed up.

Liu Jiu said with a smile: "Your Highness, King Qin and other vassal kings want to come, but they are not allowed, this is Your Majesty's favor to you!" ”

Then you must not know that love will disappear.

Zhu Yan does not believe that power can be maintained with love, especially in the imperial family, in the face of imperial power, any love needs to make concessions.

Whether you want to sit on the throne or not, you always have to make some decisions that you can't help yourself.

Zhu Rong can understand.

He suddenly remembered Liu Ji's words, when King Yan was following the generals in drills, King Qi was stubborn, and when King Yan went to the battlefield to establish meritorious deeds, King Qi was still stubborn, why did King Qi feel that he had such a talent?

Liu Ji wanted to tell him.

Zhu Yuanzhang knows what kind of people can be generals, those people have built meritorious deeds step by step from the bottom, and you don't have such a glamorous resume.

Zhu Yu itself has a certain foundation.

It's just that most of his brothers inherited the talent of his father, and they were taught by famous generals, such as Zhu Di, Zhu Li, Zhu Fan and Zhu Zhen.

A stack of pearls, if put together, one of them is not so outstanding.

Zhu Di's art of war teacher is Xu Da, Zhu Li is Yongping Hou Xie Cheng, and Zhu Fan is Deng Yu, the Duke of Weiguo.

"The fourth brother went to the north to learn Xu Da's art of war, he will definitely come back triumphantly, and now there is only one general who is infinitely close to the DPRK, my eldest brother Li Wenzhong."

Zhu Yu wanted to ask Li Wenzhong to be his military teacher.

Each general has his own strengths, Chang Yuchun is good at attacking, Zhu Wenzheng is good at defense, Deng Yue is good at commanding the Shenji Battalion, Feng Sheng is good at commanding cavalry, and Xu Da is all-round and good at fighting in large corps.

If you let someone who is talented and good at defense learn from a general who is good at attacking, it will only hurt him.

Zhu Yan doesn't know what he's good at.

But Li Wenzhong must know.

Among the ceiling-level generals of the Ming Dynasty, Li Wenzhong is a commander with both civil and military skills, and he is a general who is infinitely close to Chang Yuchun, but he is not reckless.

Lone has time to visit this brother, it's nothing, just want to gain a life-saving skill in this cold society.

After the sacrifice, Zhu Yuanzhang did not take the carriage back to the palace, he always kept a straight face, followed the mountain road of the Imperial Temple, and walked to the field under Jiming Mountain.

It was difficult to get out of the palace, and when I saw the cultivators working in the fields, I couldn't bear to disturb and got into the carriage.

Zhu Biao stretched out his hand and was about to pull Zhu Rong up, but he saw an old eunuch running over, bowing his head, and reporting:

"His Royal Highness King Qi, Your Majesty invites you to ride with you."
