The best resources, the best teachers, sure enough, the emperor was the first to enjoy.

It is no wonder that the emperor has strictly controlled Lujia Village, where Mr. lives in seclusion, if it is not so tightly controlled, I am afraid that the children of ministers and rich people who are looking for him to study will step out of the mountains of Lujia Village.

There is no road in this world, but when there are many people who walk, it becomes a road.

"Mr. Qin is really a pedant!"

"Our offspring, if he can learn some of his learning, will be enough to become the pillars of the nation."

"This is not an exaggeration at all, the previous policies that Mr. Qin gave to the emperor to govern the country made the Ming Dynasty rich in three months, and in just ten days, the elites of the Ming treasury piled up."

"There are also policies for governing the country, such as dividing the land into the acre, beating the local tyrants, and dividing the land. Whoever learns one of them will become a famous minister through the ages."

"His understanding of military affairs is also at the level of immortals, and generals can become famous generals through the ages after learning a little bit. You didn't see Goryeo Hou Hua Yunlong, and he used his strategy to sweep away Goryeo in half a month."

"And Mu Ying, it was also his strategy that completely lifted the bandits in the southwest."

"There is also a blast furnace for steel and iron, and the Ming Dynasty's magic machine musket was also made by him."

"Mr. Qin's knowledge, military talents, and governing ability ...... has far surpassed Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang's wooden ox and flowing horse can be compared with the divine machine musket? He's an all-round guru."

"His height has surpassed the level of mortals and reached the level of immortals."

"It's a pity that our children didn't have the opportunity to come to Mr. Qin to apprentice, it's a pity."

"Mr. Qin is the dean of the Jixia School Palace, if he goes out of the mountain one day in the future and enters the magnificent Jixia School Palace......" Suddenly a minister's eyes lit up, "In this way, our children, will they almost touch him?"

"As long as the children of our family can join the academy of the Jixia Academy...... As the dean, Mr. Qin is likely to give lectures to his disciples."

"Makes sense!"

……

"Quiet!"

"Quiet!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and motioned to the ministers to stop talking.

"The steam turbine loom is science and technology, not some kind of weirdness." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "We can use it casually, we haven't violated any taboos, let alone violated the way of heaven, so let's not discuss this anymore."

"Not bad, not bad!"

"Your Majesty!"

The ministers said one after another.

They all agreed that this was a normal event, not some ghostly thing, and Zhu Yuanzhang's metaphor of the wind just now had convinced them.

And there was a pedantic scholar who said that it was against heaven to replace manpower with miraculous skills Yin skill, and he had been beheaded.

"Now I have a steam turbine textile machine, if it is mass-produced, it will be used in the textile workshop in Jiangnan. Every year, the silk spun must be a hundred times more than before." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "With such a big change, what suggestions do the ministers have?"

"Daming has a lot of silk, which is undoubtedly a good thing." Liu Bowen said.

He accepted the steam turbine loom faster than other ministers, and he used to buy foreigners' goods on Yingtianfu Street, and he saw more things and accepted new things quickly.

"A good thing indeed." Li Shanchang said, "The previous opposition to the imperial history said that the speed of steam turbine loom weaving is fast, and it will make many people lose their jobs, which is not a big problem."

"Not bad. When they are unemployed, they can do something else." Wang Guangyang said.

"We're not here to hear from you about good or bad, but for you to make suggestions." Zhu Yuanzhang's expression froze and said.

"Your Majesty." At this time, Yang Xian stood up from the crowd and said, "The production speed of the steam turbine loom is too fast, and the silkworm cocoons in the Jiangnan area will definitely not be enough. In the previous year, it is estimated that the cocoons of the previous year will be consumed in half a month."

"Therefore, the minister suggested that in the three provinces south of the Yangtze River, the rice should be changed to mulberry in an all-round way."

"Only by planting mulberry trees in all three provinces will it be possible to meet the production of steam turbine spinning machines."

"That's what you're supposed to say." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Changing rice to mulberry?

When the ministers of civil and military affairs heard this, they immediately fell silent.

This is a major event, which is related to the stability and prosperity of the Jiangnan region.

Such a major move is not child's play, and must not be given lightly, and must be carefully discussed. Because as soon as this measure comes out, it will immediately affect tens of millions of Li people in the Jiangnan area.

"Your Majesty, it takes three years for mulberry trees to be harvested, and they are used to raise silkworms to produce cocoons and sell them to textile workshops in exchange for profit." Liu Bowen said, "And in the past three years, what will the people eat?"

"The Jiangnan region is a major grain-producing province in the Ming Dynasty, and if it is changed to planting mulberry trees, the grain of the Ming Dynasty may not be enough to eat." Wang Guangyang said, "Although silk can be sold overseas for money and sells very well, gold and silver cannot be eaten as food after all."

"Isn't our overseas trade very developed, and we can buy grain from overseas." Song Lian said.

"I'm afraid not." At this time, Shen Wansan, the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, stood up and said, "There are only a few regions that are rich in grain overseas, and the annual output is limited, and if we keep buying, they will definitely increase the price."

"Moreover, all three major grain-producing provinces are planted with mulberry trees, and there must be a big food shortage."

"And it seems a bit of a pity to change the fertile land into mulberry trees." Li Shan said.

"If the fertile land is not replanted with mulberry trees, the yield of mulberry trees planted in other inferior worlds will not be able to satisfy so many sericulture farmers." Yang Xiandao.

"Don't even make a noise." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "We have decided to plant mulberry trees on a large scale in the southwest, so that everyone there can raise silkworms. When the time comes, all the cocoons they produce will be supplied to the Jiangnan area."

"There are many hills and mountains in the southwest, and without the Great Plains, food production is not high. Planting mulberry trees on mountains or ridges is also wasteland. Rice can still be grown in the paddy fields, and it will not have much impact on food production there."

"Jiangnan is a major grain-producing province, so there is no need to change. After all, food is the foundation of a country. Changing rice to mulberry in Jiangnan is a bit of a suspicion of shaking the fundamentals. We can't afford to delay big things for the sake of temporary textile production."

"Your Majesty!" The ministers said.

"Supplying silkworm cocoons to Jiangnan from the far southwest is a bit time-consuming and labor-intensive." Li Shanchang said, "The mountain roads there are difficult to travel, the official roads are dilapidated, and it takes at least a month to get to Jiangnan."

"It's better than shaking the fundamentals of food." Liu Bowen said.

"In this case, it is necessary to build official roads on a large scale to facilitate the transportation of silkworm cocoons." Yang Xiandao sighed, "The birth of a new machine has caused many related problems, and even changed the whole country."

"Not bad, not bad!"

When the crowd heard this, they all agreed.

"It would be nice if there was some quick way to transport it, we are all transporting it by horse-drawn carriage at the moment." Liu Bowen had a whim.
