Zhu Jianyan listened to Zhu Jingyuan's remarks, and a thought rose again in his heart.

After hesitating, Zhu Jianyan decided to talk to his son.

However, before speaking, Zhu Jianyan subconsciously looked at the surrounding environment.

The content of the conversation between the father and son is the most confidential thing in the world, and there are no idle people around.

Otherwise, the father and son would not have said so openly.

However, even if Zhu Jianyan had already retired from the people around him, when he wanted to talk about a certain topic, he still subconsciously confirmed the safety of his surroundings.

"The relative fairness of society is conducive to the stability of royal rule.

"However, the existence of the royal family is actually a kind of unfairness, right?

The contradiction between the two will be recognized by more and more people with the improvement of education level, right?

"The existence of the increasingly large consortium of the royal family is a direct manifestation of this unfairness......

Zhu Jingyuan was stunned when he heard this question.

Is this a question that the emperor will ponder?

Presumably, the so-called "emperors" of this era will think so.

It may be that with this kind of thinking, he will say that he is the emperor of the Ming people.

Zhu Jingyuan was stunned for a few seconds, and then shook his head slightly:

"The existence of the emperor is indeed unfair, and the royal consortium is indeed a direct manifestation of unfairness.

"However, the world is inherently unfair, even if our Zhu family is not the emperor, there will be others who will be the emperor.

"Even if everyone is not emperor, there will be presidents, presidents, consuls.

"If there is order in society, there will be a management system, and there will be a situation where the same people have different powers.

"Even if we think that we can achieve absolute selflessness, we cannot demand that all human beings be selfless.

Therefore, in order to maintain the stability of any kind of management system, it is necessary to tilt social resources towards rulers and managers, so that rulers and managers can gain more social status and resources.

"Status and resources are both their reward and the basis for maintaining their power and the guarantee of social stability.

At the same time, we need to check this situation and clarify the principle of reciprocity of rights and obligations.

"With a higher social status and more resources, you have to take on more obligations.

"At the same time, it is important for rulers and managers to understand that maintaining social stability is the fundamental guarantee for maintaining the current status and resources.

"The status of access and the scale of resources must be controlled without exceeding the equilibrium point of maintaining social equity.

"There must be no unlimited demand for resources and status, otherwise it is jeopardizing the foundation of governance.

"Instead of thinking about whether we have problems in our own existence, we should think about how we can do these specific things better.

"That's why I said earlier that maintaining the most basic fairness of society is not absolute fairness."

Zhu Jianyan just smiled when he heard these words, and after Zhu Jingyuan finished speaking, he nodded with a smile and said:

"If you think so, I don't have to worry about it......"

Zhu Jingyuan was obviously stunned again, the emotional father was not thinking about whether the emperor was reasonable, but worried that I would have excessive "reflection" on the existence of the emperor and the imperial consortium:

"Father...... You were worried about me? Worried that my mind is going off track? ”

Zhu Jianyan nodded as a matter of course and said:

"After all, over the years, you have been fair when you open your mouth and shut up, and what you say casually is ownership by the whole people.

"Of course I'm worried that you're going to do something to dig up the roots of our family......

"You're right, the world is inherently unfair.

"The fairest thing to do is to minimize unfairness as much as possible and put it on the surface as much as possible.

"Let the general know what is unfair and don't get involved in these few areas.

"And then to maintain the fairness of the other levels as much as possible."

Zhu Jingyuan was a little speechless for a moment:

"yes, that's what I've always been thou.

"It is to occupy a position where you can enforce absolutely unfair rules and prevent others from grabbing this position.

"For example, my various plans in the aviation industry system are that I want to get all the key basic patents, so as to avoid others from relying on the key basic patents to engage in patent trolls.

"So, I won't give up my control no matter what......"

Zhu Jianyan nodded very gratifying again when he heard this:

"It's good to have this direction yourself, but this strategy is highly dependent on the thinking of the decision-maker.

"So, the child's education should also be paid attention to, and your child should also go to school, right?"

Zhu Jingyuan didn't expect the topic to come to this place again:

"Hmm...... It's really time to go to school, and the Zongren Mansion has already contacted me. ”

When they arrived at this place, the formal topic was over, and the father and son began to talk about family life.

At noon, Zhu Jingyuan had dinner with Zhu Jianyan directly in the palace, and only left the Forbidden City in the afternoon to return to his residence.

This conversation is the second in-depth discussion between father and son after a few years.

The open and honest explanation eliminated the estrangement left over the past few years and once again unified the thinking of the father and son.

】

The most critical thing is to eliminate the last concern in Zhu Jianyan's heart.

The next day, Zhu Jingyuan and Niu Jian talked freely for a long time, discussing and estimating in all aspects.

On the third day, Niu Jian flew to Shuntianfu in Jingshi to meet the low-level diplomatic staff arranged by Honglu Temple.

In Shuncheonfu, he took the largest four-engine large passenger plane of the Ming Dynasty and officially departed for Lucia.

The form of this aircraft, in addition to being a propeller engine, is very similar to the civil airliners of later generations.

Thirty meters long, thirty-two meters wide fuselage, front triangular landing gear.

Four twin-row, eighteen-cylinder turbocharged engines, each with a power of 2,200 horsepower.

The maximum flight speed is more than 500 kilometers per hour, and the cruising speed is also more than 400 kilometers per hour.

The maximum take-off weight reached forty tons, and the maximum range exceeded four thousand kilometers.

It can carry up to sixty-four passengers.

If necessary, it can be a transport aircraft, and possibly even a bomber.

The plane departed from Suncheonfu and flew three thousand kilometers northwest to first arrive at Xianbei City, the capital of the Western Xianbei Principality.

The location of Xianbei City is basically the original historical Novosibirsk.

Due to its location, it is located exactly halfway between the Ming Dynasty and Moscow, the capital of Lucia, and is a straight-line distance of more than 3,000 kilometers on both sides.

The relatively reasonable range of today's large passenger aircraft happens to be just at the level of 3,000 to 4,000 kilometers.

At the same time, the Principality of Xixian Bei is now a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, but the monarch Luo Yashan is the younger brother of the current Emperor Lucia, and he himself is of mixed blood in Minglu, and his wife is still a complete Ming person.

The Principality of Western Xianbei is a matter of course, revealing the identity of the buffer zone and intermediary between the two sides.

Xianbei City has also become the best transit point for the Daming and Lucia routes.

Duke Luo Yashan of Xianbei accepted and used this identity very realistically, and did a good job of mediating the relationship between the two parties.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Xianbei Principality, it actually experienced a considerable period of chaos.

It was mainly the growing radical elements of the Great Lucia, who were dissatisfied with Lucia's surrender to the Ming Dynasty and the division of the Xianbei principality, and caused more than one "riot".

However, at the same time as the Principality of Xianbei was divided, it also cooperated with Lucia mainland and exchanged populations with each other.

The Duchy of Xianbei sent the most radical Lucian elements to Lucia proper.

Lucia properness sent the most radical Minghua elements to the Duchy of Xianbei.

At the same time, the Principality of Xianbei accepted the jurisdiction and assistance of the garrison of the Ming Dynasty, and accepted the investment of the Ming royal consortium.

The garrison from the Ming Dynasty did not hesitate to use thunderous means to help the Xianbei Principality control the situation.

After sending away the most radical Lucia, the society of the Xianbei Principality was basically stable.

The Principality of Xianbei became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and ushered in the radical Minghua elements of Lucia throughout the country, and the whole society was not fully inclined to the "Thorough Minghua" trend of thought.

The country, city and people of the Principality of Xianbei have also achieved a thorough "Minghua" transformation in the past few years.

Ming-style official system, Ming-style military system, Ming-style schools, Ming-style architecture, Ming-style language.

The local indigenous people were originally "Tatars", and the Tatars were not a single ethnic group, but a mixture of a large number of similar ethnic groups.

Lucia once immigrated to the local area in large numbers, and after becoming a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, Ming workers and merchants came to the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the local population composition of Xianbei City was originally very complex.

But their thinking tends to be unified.

Either they were originally Ming people, or they were originally Minghua elements, or they were ordinary people who did not contradict Minghua at all.

The culture and system of the Ming Dynasty became the link that connected people of different ethnic groups here.

Daming Yayan is not only the language spoken by the Ming people, it is no longer only the official language of the Xianbei Principality, but also is slowly becoming the common language of other local ethnic groups.

When the national strength, culture, and prestige of a dominant country are all superior, it is actually very simple to assimilate a small number of outsiders and marginal ethnic groups within its borders.

Especially in this era and region where nationalism has not yet taken shape.

This kind of ideological unity, which has naturally existed, coupled with the "Kangzhi" investment of the Ming royal family consortium, has made the restoration and construction of the Xianbei Principality very fast.

Xianbei City, a remote and deserted military city, quickly became extremely prosperous and lively.

The person in charge of this mission was Niu Jian, a staff member of Zhu Jingyuan, the prince and the king.

If you only look at the official grade and treatment, you can only reach the prefect level of the fourth grade at most.

The monarch of the Xianbei Principality is the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, and the nominal grade is supergrade.

However, Luo Yashan, the prince of Xianbei Kingdom, went to the airport very enthusiastically to greet Niu Jian in person.

Because although the grade of Niu Jian is not high now, the future is unlimited.

Niu Jian didn't take any stand when he saw Luo Yashan, and he didn't attach importance to the identity of the so-called duke of the other party.

It's because the other party's daughter is Zhu Jingyuan's personal maid and private secretary......

Luo Yashan is at least the father of his colleague, and he can even be regarded as his father-in-law.

Both of them have a very good attitude, and the atmosphere of the meeting on the spot is very harmonious.

Luo Yashan accompanied Niu Jian to have a meal in Xianbei City, and sent him back to the airport after the plane was overhauled and replenished.

After this flight of more than 3,200 kilometers, it arrived in Moscow, the capital of Lucia.

Lucia's Emperor did not come to greet him, but the chairman of the Council of Ministers, the de facto Prime Minister, Widmayer, came.

The two sides met at the Western Cape during the peace talks, so they were quite familiar.

And this time it is not a pure welcome, both sides have serious things to talk about this time.

Before Niu Jian came, he had already greeted Wademeyer, and also revealed some thoughts and hints.

The two sides left the airport and went directly to Lucia's palace.

Emperor Nicholas of Lucia prepared a simple welcome banquet in the palace to welcome Niu Jian and his party.

Both sides had business, so after the opening welcome speech of the banquet, the two sides drank wine glasses in the venue and directly began informal discussions.

Emperor Nicholas of Lucia couldn't wait to ask directly:

"Before Mr. Niu came, the news conveyed by the Daming Honglu Temple said that the Ming Dynasty can continue to transfer more advanced shipbuilding technology to us, and Mr. will talk to us in detail after he comes.

"What is the scope of this technical support?

"Does it include larger caliber artillery and manufacturing processes, does it include the production technology of Daming's new boiler and turbine systems, and the design and production technology of the triple turret?

"Does it include the production process of Daming's high-strength armor-piercing shells?"

Since the end of the peace talks of the world war, Daming has been supporting Lucia to improve shipbuilding technology, and Lucia's cutting-edge warships were designed and built with the help of Ming craftsmen.

It's just that there have been clear restrictions on support in the past, and the latest technology used by Daming himself will not be given.

Such as case-hardened armor-piercing shells, fully enclosed small water-pipe oil-fired booster boilers, fully independent triple turrets, etc., will not be taught to use.

Even the design of inclined armor was not told to them.

In general, Daming built a cutting-edge battleship in World War II, but it was a battleship of World War I that guided the construction of Lucia and other countries.

Therefore, Lucia knew very well that although he had found a larger warship than the Ming Dynasty, his combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty.

It's not even a good look, because both the military and the civilian population feel that they are not as good as the Ming warships.

Comments such as big and inappropriate were often seen in the newspapers, and the Great Lucian elements were not very popular.

Niu Jian had been prepared before he came, discussed with Zhu Jingyuan to determine the direction, and confirmed the details with Wang Lai and Li Rui from the Ordnance Department, and now replied directly and quite affirmatively:

"You can give it, but it is not recommended that Lucia take them all, because these techniques are conditional......"

When Nikolai and Wademeyer heard the first phrase, their eyes widened subconsciously.

can give this answer is really beyond their expectations.

They feel that they will definitely give a part and a few key technologies.

I didn't think about the possibility of giving it all.

But Niu Jian's last two short sentences immediately woke up the two of them.

What is the condition or price of all of them?
