Chapter 435: Shipbuilding

Zhou Yang led people to fight in the south and the north, and of course their sailors also wanted to make a name for themselves on the sea.

Since last month, the people of the two major sailors have sent people to contact him secretly, and they just want to include these five warships. Even if you can't get five, you can get two or one.

This master Cheng Fangyuan couldn't do it, he directly pointed out with the people of the two major sailors that the cost of this shipbuilding was built by Princess Changle out of her own pocket, and the silver in the treasury was not touched.

His Majesty personally promised Princess Changle that he would never touch her things, and he would not touch a stitch or thread.

This ship belongs to Princess Changle, not to mention that the money for this shipbuilding is all taken by Princess Changle, even if it is from the treasury, the emperor has already made a promise, who dares to say that the princess will let this ship out.

Cheng Fangyuan was a little undecided for a while, should he tactfully remind His Majesty of the needs of the sailor

Lu Yangge saw Cheng Fangyuan's hesitation and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Seeing His Majesty ask, Cheng Fangyuan immediately raised his eyebrows.

Taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, he is a bright and upright person, how can he accept other people's offerings for nothing.

"Yes, the sailor wants to borrow the mouth of the slave to ask Princess Changle if she can get out of the two boats. The princess just likes to go out to sea to play, and she should have had enough of playing outside all these years, so it is better to leave the warship to them, so that they can make contributions to your majesty. ”

After speaking, Cheng Fangyuan carefully lowered his head and looked at the splendid velvet blanket in front of him.

He didn't dare to peek into the emperor's mind, this emperor was stronger than his previous master.

Not to mention the seven tricks, there are also some means.

Otherwise, she would not have taken the place of her cousin as a woman.

"It's pretty beautiful to think about one by one."

Lu Yangge chuckled, "How much benefit did they give you, so that you dare to go to the princess to grab something?"

"Not much."

Cheng Fangyuan quickly calculated in his heart, "Together, it is enough for Your Majesty to build two more big ships."

Don't ask them why they don't make it when they have the money, they have to be able to do it.

When Princess Changle first started to send people to build ships, who didn't say that she was whimsical, such a big ship, not to mention whether it could be built, even if it was built, how to go to sea, how many helmsmen it would take to sail the ship firmly on the sea.

Wait for Princess Changle's five big ships to enter the sea one by one, look at the majestic big ship, and then look at the structure on the ship.

The two sailors simply regretted not being at the beginning, and only then did they realize how precious the skills the princess had obtained from overseas.

It's just too late to regret it, and now even if they can pay for one or two more ships, it will take two or three years.

Seeing such a warship, let alone two or three years, they couldn't even wait for two or three days, and they couldn't wait for Princess Changle's ship to sail back now.

Seeing that the emperor's expression was not annoyed, Cheng Fangyuan became more and more bold.

"Your Majesty, this ship ......"

"Since they have spoken, I cannot refute their face. Then the two major sailors have one for each family, and you tell them that this is a cheeky snatch from Princess Changle, and it is not for nothing. If they are too little, let them figure it out on their own. ”

Cheng Fangyuan immediately smiled: "The slave knows that His Majesty has a way." ”

Lu Yangge raised his hand and nodded at him, "Okay, don't get the benefits and sell well, you keep one percent of the things sent by the sailor, and hand over the rest to the treasury." ”

"Yes, the minion will go at once."

Cheng Fangyuan smiled flatteringly, "Your Majesty, the minions don't dare to accept their benefits, it's all their shameless stuff." It's not that the slave thinks that His Majesty has just built a boat for Princess Changle, and he has no silver in his hand, so the slave doesn't touch this hand, which makes him angry. ”

Lu Yangge smiled: "As far as your mouth is concerned, I will thank you for saving money." ”

"To do things for Your Majesty, the slave is the one who will not give up, and he will not talk about any merit and hard work."

Cheng Fangyuan said, and immediately presented the gift list he received to the emperor, "This is the filial piety of the two major sailors, Your Majesty, you order, except for the little wine money left by the slave, the remaining ninety percent is here, not a little more than a penny." ”

Lu Yangge nodded: "Let you go down." ”

Waiting for Cheng Fangyuan to go backwards out of the palace gate, Lu Yangge opened the gift list presented by Cheng Fangyuan and looked through it carefully.

Cheng Fangyuan has not received much filial piety from his subordinates over the years, but no one knows that most of the filial piety received by Cheng Gonggong has gone into the treasury.

knows that Gonggong Cheng is a celebrity around the emperor, but he doesn't know that he is still the emperor's money bag.

Over the years, Lu Yangge has not deducted Cheng Fangyuan, Cheng Fangyuan raised in the mansion in Beijing, the house built in his hometown, the land he bought, and the heirs raised by his brother, all of which Lu Yangge got by turning a blind eye.

Originally, when Lu Yangge was building a ship, he thought that if the two major sailors got the news, they would definitely not let go easily.

Three ships were enough for her, so by the way, build two more, and leave one for each of the two sailors, so as to gag their mouths.

At the beginning, a lot of gold and silver were brought out from the ancient tomb of Dayun Mountain, part of which was filled into the treasury, and part of it was kept by her, not to mention building five warships, even if she built five more ships, she could also take out the silver.

It's just that the artillery and gunpowder are not easy to find, and if it weren't for Zhou Yang's help, she estimated that she would have to wait another year or two before they could get things together.

After a long time, Chen Luxing walked in lightly.

When he walked in front of the emperor, he stopped and said softly: "Father, Father-in-law Cheng has come to give you silver again?" ”

Lu Yangge borrowed Cheng's father-in-law's hand to collect money, and this matter was not hidden from Chen Luxing.

When the water is clear, there are no fish, and the water cannot be clear, so Lu Yangge will muddy it himself.

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimp, and dried shrimp eat algae.

When the fish are raised, they slaughter the fat water, and they don't know how many creatures they raise.

"Hmm."

Lu Yangge looked at Chen Luxing, who was sitting cross-legged opposite, "The emperor has an idea?" ”

"No, Erchen just came to ask if Xirong had invaded the border, is it feasible for my father to send General Chen?"

Chen Luxing sat up straight and said, "Father, the sons still want to go to Xirong to see why they have such a big guts." This time, I will definitely ask Xirong to come and go, and let them see my Great Shang Dynasty, how can they come and leave as soon as they want. ”

Chen Luxing is still very confident in saying this, the current Great Shang Dynasty is not the time when the capital was just built, not to mention the strong soldiers and horses, Aunt Changle also brought artillery from overseas. He had seen the power of this cannon with his own eyes, and with a "boom", it could break through a hole in the strong city wall.

It's just that the gunpowder is not easy to make, and all the guns burn down is silver.

Silver, silver!

Chen Luxing looked down at the gift list on the table, this father-in-law is indeed a good dog.

It's a pity that he is only loyal to his father!

It cannot be used by him, or he will be revolted.
