All of a sudden, everyone present received this task, even Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen himself was no exception.

Zhu Houxi's heart moved, and after laughing heartily twice, he said to the other three: "My mission is to save the Chongzhen Dynasty, if the task is completed, I will be rewarded with a shipyard, I don't know Grandpa Tai, Grandpa Cheng and Chongzhen, what are your tasks and rewards?" ”

Zhu Houxi deliberately concealed his reward for spells.

From the current point of view, the way of cultivating immortals is indeed only promised to himself, and if he is so hidden, he may have an unexpected effect in the future.

Hearing Zhu Houxi say this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not hesitate, and said directly: "Our task is the same as your kid, it is to save Chongzhen's dynasty, but the task reward is different, what is the improved corn seed...... You boy is well-informed, what is this corn? We are also old farmers, but we have never heard of it or seen it. ”

In his words, Zhu Yuanzhang was full of curiosity.

And Zhu Houxi did not hesitate at all, and immediately answered: "Emperor Taizu, this corn is native to Central and South America, and the yield per mu can reach 800 to 1,200 catties. ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

Not only Zhu Yuanzhang, but also Zhu Di and Zhu Youzhen on the side were also surprised, and then they were ecstatic!

If there is so much production capacity per mu, how many people can be fed?!

Today's Daming, the average yield per mu is only about 400 catties!

Zhu Di calmly asked a question on the side: "How does it taste, but the taste is difficult to swallow?" ”

In fact, even if the taste is worse, it doesn't matter, as long as you don't eat the dead.

In the year of the great calamity, the grain harvest failed.

It's good to be alive, who cares if it's good or not.

"The taste is excellent, soft and glutinous like a pastry, and the taste is sweet." Zhu Houxi cut the railway.

The first corn may be unpalatable, but the improved corn can be called modern corn, and the texture and taste can already be said to be excellent.

After hearing Zhu Houxi's words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di couldn't calm down for a long time, and Zhu Youzhen burst into tears: "If I have this artifact, how can I have the whole world against it?!" ”

After everyone was shocked by the production capacity of corn, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became keenly aware of the details: "Central and South America...... Where is that? Why have we never heard of this place? ”

"Look across the sea from my Daming."

Zhu Houxi smiled: "But there is no need to force it there at present, let's solve the current problem." ”

"My mission is also to save the Chongzhen Dynasty, if nothing else, the mission is the same, only the rewards are different."

Zhu Di also spoke at this moment: "My reward is the craftsmanship of the firearm, which is called the 'Impact Flint Musket', which sounds rare, and it seems to be much stronger than the firearm equipped with by the Shenji Battalion. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

It's just a percussive flintlock pistol.

However, for the era of the Yongle Dynasty, the impact flintlock pistol could already be regarded as a dimensionality reduction weapon.

"Although Emperor Yongle, your Shenji Battalion was already at the top level in the world at that time, and was equipped with advanced weapons and firearms, but compared to the flintlock guns, this firecrackers were still very different."

Zhu explained: "The flintlock pistol greatly simplifies the shooting process, improves the firing rate and shooting accuracy, is easy to use, and has a low cost, which is convenient for mass production. You could have played one round in the time you could have armed with a flintlock pistol, which can fire at least 3-4 rounds, and it is much more powerful. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di's spirit was lifted.

Although it may not sound as important as corn, it is undoubtedly a great thing for a martial emperor to be able to make his weapons and equipment more advanced.

Zhu Yuanzhang on the side looked at Zhu Di with gray eyes, and opened his mouth unceremoniously: "Fourth, after this gun is made, remember to honor your Lao Tzu first." The first batch will be used by Lao Tzu's army first, and the second batch will be used by yourself. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang is also an emperor with abundant martial virtues, and after hearing that this weapon is so powerful, he naturally thought about it.

"Dad, this is nature, this is nature." Zhu Di sneered and hurriedly spoke.

"Grandpa Cheng, if you want to make it as soon as possible after completing the task, you still need Chongzhen's help." Zhu Houxi said.

"Oh?"

Zhu Di was slightly surprised, looked at Zhu Youzhen, and said, "What can this kid do to help?" ”

Zhu Houxi said: "There is a soldier in the Chongzhen Dynasty, named Bi Maokang, who edited the "Illustrated Description of Military Weapons", and he is a member of the military industry. ”

"There is such a person, it is the right attendant of my military department, I ordered him to make military vehicles, Shenfei cannons and other equipment, and because of his merits, he was promoted to the right attendant of Nanjing's household department, and the governor of the grain. Later, I don't know who I had a conflict with, and I resigned and returned to my hometown. ”

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly said: "If the ancestors are in need, after the siege of Beijing is lifted, I will summon them into the palace and interview the ancestors." ”

"Good."

Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction, and Zhu Houxi said to Zhu Youzhen: "What is the reward for Ling's mission?" ”

"Back to Emperor Sejong, the reward for my mission is 'Inheriting the Jade Seal'." Zhu Youzhen smiled bitterly.

"The jade seal of the country?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned: "Isn't this thing in your hands?" What's wrong, you lost it? ”

"Grandpa, it's not our Ming Dynasty's heirloom jade seal, it's carved by the first emperor with He's bi, and there is the one on it that says 'Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity'." Zhu Youzhen explained.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head in disappointment and said, "Tsk, such treasures can fall into your hands, it's really a jade seal." ”

Although it is not as powerful as corn seeds, flintlock pistols and shipyards, it is also a symbol of the spirit of the people and the symbol of the first emperor.

Zhu Youzhen is very aware of the current affairs and said: "If you can solve the troubles of the younger generation, the younger generation is willing to give the jade seal to His Majesty Taizu!" ”

"Come on, you can keep it, since you can reward the three of us at the same level, maybe this jade seal does not only represent the jade seal, we are here to protect our descendants, not to collect benefits from our descendants." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.

After hearing this, Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang resentfully.

Dad, that's not what you said when you asked me for a gun.

seemed to notice Zhu Di's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, and decisively scolded: "What do you see, you are our son, we are your son, isn't it natural for a son to respect Laozi?" You kid is still rebelling against the throne, that is, we are in a good mood when we see the Houxi boy, plus you, the emperor, seem to be doing well, otherwise I would have slapped you and slapped you! ”

"Yes, yes." Zhu Di hurriedly smiled awkwardly.

But at this moment, Zhu Di seemed to think of something, looked at Zhu Houxi and Zhu Youzhen, the two juniors, and asked, "Before the rescue starts, let me ask a question." What exactly is my temple name, and why do you sometimes call me Taizong, and sometimes call me Chengzu? ”

Zhu Di was puzzled.

If he was allowed to choose, of course he would like the temple name of Taizong.

He also knows very well that whoever is the eldest or the second is the emperor will give himself the temple name of Taizong, so ......

Where did this ancestor come from?

Could it be that something has happened?
