Although Zhu Jianyan felt that his son would come as soon as he opened his mouth, he still decided to try it according to his son's suggestion, and finally gave his son a notice:

"Your grandfather asked me to tell you that if there is nothing particularly important in the future, you will have to go to the morning court every day."

Now it was Zhu Jingyuan's turn to be stunned:

"Why?"

Zhu Jianyan looked at his son with a complicated expression:

"Early Dynasty is to spend more than ten minutes to an hour every day to know what is happening in the world, which is much more efficient and faster than reading newspapers.

"What's more, newspapers only let you know after the fact that something happened, and at the same time, you can only see the outward appearance of most things.

"But participating in the early dynasty allows you to participate in the decision-making of most things, and allows you to see through the internal reasons and purposes of things."

Zhu Jingyuan listened to this explanation, and the illusion in his heart came again.

A prince who is about to become a vassal king in a remote desert obviously does not need to know these things:

"Grandpa means ...... What do I need to know? ”

Zhu Jianyan wanted to speak and stopped, but finally spoke:

“…… Otherwise, why do you specifically remind you to go to the morning court? ”

Zhu Jingyuan was speechless.

The next day, on the morning of the 11th day of the first month of the 34th year of Taiping in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Jingyuan followed his father to the morning court again.

Today's early dynasty location has been changed from the Wenhua Hall to the Wuying Palace.

This happened from time to time before, indicating that today the emperor has additional things to say, and it is related to military affairs.

The princes and ministers who participated in the court meeting all summarized the tasks of their departments in advance in their hearts, and at the same time guessed and analyzed the additional things that the emperor had to mention.

Seeing Zhu Jingyuan follow Zhu Jianyan in, although everyone was a little concerned in their hearts, they didn't show any emotion.

Everyone is basically used to it, and they may have to work together often in the future, but it is not good if they are not used to it.

And after these days of understanding, mainly yesterday's propaganda meeting in the Ministry of Industry, so that most of the old gentlemen understood.

This kid didn't mean to target anyone, he was originally such a character, always in a state of clear thinking.

Aside from the usual surprising words, this kid himself is not annoying, and can give new ideas on their own things.

So another minister came to say hello to Zhu Jianyan, and some people greeted Zhu Jingyuan himself.

The atmosphere outside the main hall of the venue today was quite harmonious, until several treasurers of the Royal Consortium arrived.

The last dynasty is a matter of the imperial court, and the people of the consortium usually do not participate.

The people of the consortium went to the early dynasty, explaining that the things to be discussed today are not only related to the military, but also related to the emperor and manufacturers.

This may directly affect the interests of many people, so everyone suddenly becomes serious.

The morning of the new day began in such an atmosphere.

First of all, each department reported the daily work progress, and the old emperor simply listened to or made reminders and requests.

After the normal process was over, the old emperor took the initiative to speak:

"Okay, now let's start talking about a military logistics matter, the issue of changing the fuel of naval ships from coal to fuel oil.

"Although this is a military issue, it involves a wide range of departments and industries, so everyone in the court is left to make suggestions.

"What has now been established is that the fuel will definitely be replaced gradually and comprehensively, and there is no need to argue on this point.

"Increasing the scale of crude oil extraction and refining, and building more fuel storage warehouses are also certain things.

"The key question is how to deal with the original coal-fired supply station as smoothly as possible."

When the old emperor asked this question, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little cold.

The Ming navy was large and spread across the North Atlantic.

In order to cooperate with the activities of the navy, the Ming Dynasty built a large number of fuel supply depots in colonies and vassal states around the world.

In the past, the fuel of warships was coal, and in the future, it will be gradually replaced with all fuel oil.

So the question arises, how to deal with the original coal stations all over the world.

If there is only a discussion about whether to change the fuel, there will definitely be people on the scene who will oppose it.

That's a lot of people's interests, and too many people's jobs.

Even for officials with unrelated interests, these matters add to the workload.

If you want to transfer coal to the private sector, and at the same time continue to use coal as fuel for warships, there must be many people who provide detailed transfer plans.

Because everybody knows there's a lot of profit in it.

If we want to involve the private sector in oil production, oil refining, oil sales, and the construction of oil depots, there will certainly be various plans that will be put forward quickly.

Oil will definitely develop rapidly because of the military and become a promising industry in the future.

The point is that the military supply itself is synonymous with high profits and stability, and too many people want to get involved.

But now it is simply a matter of letting everyone discuss how to smoothly lay off the original military coal station, which is a purely thankless job.

It's not just a matter of demolishing the departmental military coal station itself.

The business of civilian shipping coal filling stations will also be affected, and industries related to coal mining and transportation will be affected.

To put it bluntly, this is a matter of "food and clothing for millions of workers", and it is a social problem of the entire industry.

So it's not a purely military affair, it's not a purely financial affair, it's more of a civil affair.

Everyone didn't know how to speak, but from time to time someone looked at Zhu Jingyuan.

This time, I wasn't expecting advice, but I was looking for the location of the pot.

There may be various reasons for the Navy to change fuel and fuel, but now the incident itself is caused by Zhu Jingyuan.

It was Zhu Jingyuan's request yesterday that all new warships use fuel in the future, which was directly caused by this incident.

Zhu Jingyuan didn't have a good way, and the same thing happened in history.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a large number of coaling stations on the route were phased out, and many small ports developed because of coal processing were also gradually abandoned.

So it's not even just about the coal industry itself, it's also about the industry and people in a lot of small offshore ports.

Of course, it is not impossible for the government not to deal with it, and let the laws of the market balance these problems and people on their own.

As long as the cycle is stretched long enough, those people and things will not be able to make any waves.

In a small remote port, a group of people are unemployed, or some people are unable to survive, or because they suddenly fall into poverty, something has happened to the people.

For the parties concerned, it may be that the sky has fallen.

For the nobles of the kings and grandsons who are far away in the sky, this cannot be said to be an inconspicuous triviality, it can only be said that it cannot reach them at all.

Historically, this has been the case.

It's just that the Ming court, which is theoretically people-oriented, instinctively wants to deal with and resettle relevant personnel in advance to avoid another large and small civil uprising.
