Zhu Yuanzhang was called to dinner by Queen Ma at noon, and a letter came from the village about the Daming Water Master.

He hurried home, took the envelope, took out a piece of paper, looked, looked, looked, gritted his teeth after reading: "Just such a sentence?" Why use such a large piece of paper? ”

The meaning is very easy to understand, the future sailor will go out to find food to eat, and there is no need for the court to pay.

He just had to find a reliable man to lead the water master, just like Zhu Wentian, the first thing he thought of was Fu Youde.

Fu Youde is very capable of fighting, he has participated in the war again and again, he has made great contributions, and he has a high official rank, but now he is not at home, and he has beaten Ming Yuzhen and his son.

"I'm afraid that I have to find a few people to do it, so that I can become an army this year."

Zhu Yuanzhang thinks that he should first find a random person who knows how to fight water warfare, mainly because he knows how to build ships, build sea ships, and build smaller sea ships first, which are built quickly.

He knows the difference between a sea boat and a river boat, one with a protruding bottom and the other with a flat bottom, and the riverboat is easy to capsize in the sea.

Since the soldiers are raised by trade, they should quickly send a group of troops to the outside to exchange things, and slowly change them, and the extra money will be used to build bigger ships and recruit more sailors.

"Biao'er is going to get married, tell the other party and see what the other party plans."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about the matter of the sailor, and then remembered the marriage of the eldest son, in the month of the winter wheat harvest.

"When the team returned this afternoon, they wrote that since some people had been arranged to form an army first, it would be better to use the sea boats confiscated from the forbidden sea first."

Zhu Biao proposed that there were still ready-made ships, but they were not big enough, and there was maritime trade during the Yuan Dynasty.

Zhang Shicheng used to fight by making money through overseas trade, but then he was caught and died.

Fang Guozhen was even more powerful, gathering thousands of people to fight the Yuan Dynasty, robbing the sea of grain, and then surrendering, rebelling, and rebelling again......

They have boats outside, and they can always hide on the island, otherwise why would the Yuan Dynasty court still accept Fang Guozhen after he rebelled again and again? No way.

Fang Guozhen is still alive, Zhu Yuanzhang will never let him lead the water division, his current official position is Zuo Cheng of Guangxi Province, so he will put on a name, and he will stay honestly in Nanjing.

"Very good! Write to ask, can a village build a palace? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed, first use the previous ship, the new ship to build a big one, slowly build, and the wood in the construction of the capital is used first.

Didn't it say that Xiaqiu Village took out new things to build a house to save wood, and saw if it could be used in the construction of the capital.

By the way, try the masters, see if the masters oppose the construction of the capital, or have other thoughts, where is the capital bad?

……

Zhu Wentian didn't know that someone was going to test him, he was busy rolling steel wires, rolling into sheets, and rolling steel with tools like squeezing sugar cane juice.

Burn the wire red first and then roll it, otherwise it will cost that small equipment.

To make a music box, he needs a spring spring, which is equipped with gears that turn and turn, and when he touches the soundpiece, it makes a sound.

This thing is complicated and can choose songs, a few songs in one.

Zhu Wentian doesn't have so much time to do it, it's too cumbersome, a song is fine, it's not a cylinder, a box plus a villain.

The villain is the action of two people in ancient costumes raising their eyebrows, giving them to the crown prince and the crown princess, both of whom are pitiful.

Zhu Wentian has a small converter for steelmaking, which can hold more than 100 catties of material at a time, and the material comes from his own iron.

With the small converter, there is a small iron furnace with a height of 2.6 meters, which is very compact, and it is not easy to operate when it is built large, and it is useless.

It is so small, what needs to be produced in its own village, and the ore is also dug by the villagers.

There used to be no blacksmiths in the village, but now there are four people who specialize in making some farm tools and knives.

When you encounter a place where you can't know, go to the blacksmith shop in the county town to learn, and if you give enough money to others, you are willing to teach, and when you teach, you will go directly to dry goods.

If you don't learn the technology of Baixuan Steel, which is passed on to others but not to women, and not to be passed on internally, Zhu Wentian can solve the steel problem.

"In fact, if you do this well, you can make a watch, the technical requirements are high, and it is relatively easy to make a table clock than a watch, so that we don't have to look at the sun and stars to compare the time, and we also save hourglasses and water leaks."

Zhu Wentian took his friends to process the materials like playing a game, explained the use of the clockwork, and added an escapement, this kind of design has long been available, and the ancients were very powerful.

It's just that I didn't use it to make a universal clock, otherwise it would be more convenient to live in daily life.

"Brother Hanhan, what else can you do with it?" The little girl has become carefree now, and the family discussed kissing her the year before last.

Everyone got married early, thirteen or fourteen-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang's daughters all married outside, and Zhu Biao and the crown princess, who wanted to get married, were both born in 1355, 1371 this year, sixteen.

When Zhu Wentian came, he did not agree with the people in the village to continue to marry early, whether it was a man or a woman.

It's a child in itself, and then I start having children soon, and I'll be in it all for the rest of my life, and it's dangerous to give birth to a child.

The village has money, so it is not so anxious about this, and it is always possible to find something satisfactory.

People who are not married are now working hard to learn literacy, writing, and arithmetic, not only Zhu Wentian's friends, but also the villagers.

The single ones study harder, and they think about the scholarly families outside.

For example, recruit a son-in-law, see which family has a scholar, but is poor, if the other party has good quality and good reading, he is willing to give more money.

After being recruited to the village, let the other party take the imperial examination, and immediately change to a son-in-law and become a normal son-in-law.

If you can't pass the exam, you can help in the village, learn slowly, and you can continue to take the exam, once every three years, if you have a child, you should raise a child.

If you marry a daughter-in-law and a child, you will be picked, and there will be a family that is an official, and the quality will be observed in the same way, and if you marry into the door, the bride price will be given hard, and the money of the official will not be much, unless you are corrupt, you will not look for it.

The chief and the village elder both feel that the people in their village can match everything, with Hanhan, no matter how powerful outsiders are, can they compare to Hanhan?

The bookkeeping method given by Han Han must be learned by the imperial court! The big money-making business in the village was sent to the palace, and the prince wrote a letter to ask how the Daming Sailor would build it.

In such a situation, the little girl was not in a hurry to get married, and there was an extra frog in her hand, which was folded with paper, and jumped by press.

"After making the music box, I'll make you a winding frog, twist it a few times, and run by myself."

Zhu Wentian knows how to use the clockwork, the iron frog, this kind of blacksmith does not need to beat slowly, make a mold, put the iron piece on it, a hammer is half a frog, install the clockwork and other small parts, the two pieces are put together, riveted with rivets.

……

The next morning, when it was time to eat, a boat returning from Nanjing arrived in the village with two boatloads of good iron ore.

The villagers moved down in the past, and Zhu Taiyi washed his hands and face: "The palace knew that after the village smelted its own iron, it was afraid that good ore would be difficult to find, so it sent some, and the Zhou Sheren came to see if there was anything that could help." ”

Zhou Zong came, with ten subordinates, and just finished helping to move the iron ore.
