Chapter 660: Xiyi Ambition
"Besides, isn't it just to share the worries of the court and get rid of many ills?" Zhu Su said with a smile.
"Only when the barns are abundant can the people live in peace. And the best way to make the barns abundant is to increase grain production. Now is the time for the imperial court to make great use of the public. If you can discover the Divine Seed in Fengming Continent, the increase in food produced by it alone will be enough to offset all the malpractices in the world. What's more, the resources possessed by the land of Fengmingzhou are not limited to food? ”
"Princes, making meritorious contributions does not have to be in the Ming Dynasty. Tens of millions of years ago, this Ying Tianfu under your feet may be regarded as the land of China? After waiting for tens of millions of years, you and I will know that Fengmingzhou, which is 20,000 miles away, will it be another Chinese hometown? ”
"And the princes present...... Could it be like the sages of China, who were worshiped by later generations in Fengmingzhou and respected as a common ancestor? ”
The literati have had a good name since ancient times, especially Lian Zining, who did not admire the glory of the imperial history, and had an almost stubborn attachment to personal ethics and the name of later generations. Hearing Zhu Su's words of comfort, many conservative officials began to show yearning in their eyes, and their previous sadness had been alleviated a lot.
Lian Zining is the same, hearing that he can leave behind his reputation, Rao is he can't help but feel a little excited. "Your Highness's words of gold and jade, if you are stubborn, you don't know what to do."
"The minister understands that going to Fengmingzhou this time is definitely not a distribution, and he is also willing to work for my Ming Dynasty. It's just that...... The ministers are the imperial history, but they really can't rest assured that they can't go down to the court......," he said, glancing at the rejoicing merchants over there.
"Nowadays, not all the ministers who want to open up maritime affairs in the court have the heart of His Royal Highness who only wants to seek the well-being of all generations...... If these treacherous demons are allowed to continue to occupy high positions, even if the ministers go to Fengming, they will not be at ease in their hearts......"
Zhu Su glanced at Lian Zining's eyes, and said in his heart that Lian Zining was not all an upright minister, and he also knew that when he was leaving, he pulled that group of people into the water.
"Master Lian, don't worry, my father's eyes are like torches, and he won't miss these people." Zhu Su said in a low voice. "Besides, now that I am the Ming Dynasty, I am responsible for the development of eternity, and I need the courtiers to think in one place and work hard in one place. There is no room for these bold silverfish. ”
"In this case, the minister is relieved." Lian Zining arched his hand. "In the past few days, the ministers and others have asked to move to Fengmingzhou, and there are many affairs in the Imperial History Terrace, and they still need to be handed over, so they will not bother in front of His Highness. Excuse me. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, please." Zhu Su gave up his hand and watched these imperial history ministers leave.
Over there, the corn harvest has also been completed, and everyone is immersed in the joy of the corn harvest, and no one cares about these "lost dogs" who have left in disgrace. Only Yang Shiqi saw that Zhu Su and the others had finished talking, so he walked over and said, "Congratulations to Your Highness, Lord Lian and others are loyal and straightforward, they are willing to go to Fengmingzhou, and the major events of Fengmingzhou can be decided." ”
"Hmm. Now that the weather is getting warmer, it's time to go to sea for the second time. Zhu Su said. Shiqi, today's corn harvest is abundant, and there is no obstacle to maritime affairs between the DPRK and China since then. What about the candidates for the second batch of immigrants to go to sea, you still need to be distracted. Non-farmers and artisans, if they want to develop Fengmingzhou, they also need to rely on the power of merchants. ”
"In addition to the Zhao family and the Shen family, who have already obtained the survey, you can write to your father and ask him to give the ten merchants another quota for the exploration of Fengmingzhou."
"I heard that there are businessmen in Jiangnan who are ready to build private shipyards, and I want to come to this trip, I will send these businessmen back and forth, and wait until the next time, they will be able to build their own merchant ships, and they will be able to travel to Fengmingzhou with the imperial fleet."
"The more lively the waterway to and from Fengming Continent, the better, and this is the duty of your Maritime Safety Bureau. It is important to know that Huaxia is like a giant, and the road is the blood vessels in the giant's body. ”
"Only when blood vessels are constantly transported back and forth, Feng Mingzhou can be regarded as a part of my Huaxia body. This matter is the top priority. ”
"Yes, disciple, remember." Yang Shiqi bowed down, and there was already a raging fighting spirit in his eyes. After a long time of leisure, it is finally time to show your ambitions.
After explaining what should be explained, Zhu Su prepared to get into the carriage and enter the palace first, and reported today's events to Lao Zhu. When he was about to get into the carriage, he accidentally caught a glimpse of several Xiyi in strange costumes, who were constantly squeezing towards him, and seemed to be muttering something in their mouths.
"Your Highness, do you want to let those Xiyi ......?" asked Yang Shiqi. At this time, if these Xiyi want to come over, they must be looking for Zhu Su, the largest maritime faction, to ask for a survey at sea.
"No, let's go. And hang them. Zhu Su said.
Yang Shiqi was stunned, as the mouthpiece of Xinxue in the Maritime Safety Bureau, he also knew Zhu Su and Liu Bowen's strategy of "blocking rather than sparse" against Xiyi. It was precisely because of this that he wondered why Zhu Su chose to hang these Xiyi. Logically speaking, shouldn't they be summoned and allowed to sail with the Ming ships?
"If it is easy to get, it will not be cherished. Even if it has been decided to let these people take advantage of Feng Mingzhou, before that, they need to be let have enough blood first. Zhu Su said in the middle of the carriage. Shiqi, remember, everything is in the interests of the country. Knock on these people more, and the treasury will be more or less abundant. ”
“…… Be. Yang Shiqi said respectfully. He realized that he was indeed too benevolent, and he also felt that the Ming Dynasty was a state of etiquette, and he should not treat these barbarians harshly.
The Ming Dynasty is naturally a state of etiquette, but the state of etiquette cannot be virtuous and unprestigious. These Xiyi hit the head of Feng Mingzhou in the Ming Dynasty, so they should make them suffer more......
……
"That corn really produced nearly 400 catties?" In the palace, Lao Zhu, who was reviewing the imperial court newspaper, heard Zhu Su's reply, and put down half of the newspaper in his hand for the first time. "Good stuff! What a good thing! We thought he wasn't a god, at most he was no different from rice or something. ”
"What a bonus! If corn is like this, how much can potatoes produce? We're really looking forward to it. ”
"The second ship to Fengmingzhou has been prepared, and Tie Xuan has been preparing ships in Longjiang Shipyard for the past few days." Zhu Su said. Zhang He has also warned a lot of Fujian children. Fujian is poor and poor, and only the sea can be taken and demanded, because since ancient times, the people of Fujian have the tradition of relying on the sea to eat the sea. ”
"These people are tenacious and fearless, and they are the perfect candidates to explore the sea and explore unknown places. Zhang He has enough signs of 2,000 Fujian disciples, which is enough for me to open up a few more cities in Fengmingzhou and explore the interior of Fengmingzhou. This time, the possibility of bringing potatoes back to Daming will be much greater. ”
"Good! Good! "Old Zhu Longyan is happy." Bring back the god seed, even if the big stone in our heart is half put down...... As long as the people of the Ming Dynasty have food, they will not be afraid of being taken advantage of by the barbarians outside the pass in the future. ”
"By the way, speaking of barbarians...... In the past few days, there are many Xiyi who claim to be the envoys who came to worship in our Ming Dynasty, and they are making noise in the Honglu Temple every day begging us to see them. ”
"Do you know this?"
Lao Zhu asked Zhu Sudao.
