Chapter 487 Layout, Southeast Shipyard
In the imperial study, Zhao Duan had just finished dealing with today's recital with the crown prince when he saw Cao Shuang walking over in small steps.
When he put down the pen in his hand and asked, "How is it?" ”
Although Zhao Duan was confused, Cao Shuang understood what he meant, and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the Lingyun Temple cadres and others have all been arrested and brought to justice, and the slave maid specially arranged a fan with great malice towards the monks to interrogate them, and it seems that the effect is not bad at present." ”
Zhao Duan showed a little smile, and then his face sank and snorted coldly: "Hmph, not only to shield the imperial court, but also to try to let the monks of Lingyun Temple escape the punishment of the imperial court by dismissing the monks of the whole temple, this Xuan'an thought is quite beautiful."
Since they don't want something neat and tidy, let them survive and not die!
Just use their fate to shock the world! ”
"Your Majesty is wise! That's how this kind of thief should be. ”
Cao Shuang hurriedly agreed.
Zhao Duan immediately changed the topic and said, "How is the King of Zhenxi?" ”
Cao Shuang replied: "The prince has already led 100,000 heavenly martial troops to surround all the deep mountains on the border of southern and northern Hunan, and at this moment he is gradually shrinking the scope and encircling and suppressing the remaining remnants of the Five Poisons Sect!" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Duan said with a worried expression on his face: "In the mountains and forests, I don't know if the Second Emperor Uncle can fight well with the Five Poisons Sect, which is good at envoys and poisonous insects?" ”
Cao Shuang immediately smiled and comforted: "Your Majesty, rest assured, before coming back, the King of Zhenxi specially went to find the Lord of Yun and learned how to make the fierce fire cabinet."
This time, all the members of the Tianwu Army carried the fierce fire cabinet, if there were thieves from the Five Poison Sect who wanted to make the poisonous insects deal with the army, they would definitely suffer a big loss! ”
"What? That kid actually handed over the production method of the fierce fire cabinet to the second emperor uncle?
When I asked him for it, he didn't give it to me! ”
Zhao Duan asked in surprise, he didn't notice that there was a strong vinegar in his tone.
In Zhao Duan's opinion, after all, he is his father!
He didn't even give it to himself, but gave it to the second emperor uncle, and in the eyes of which stinky boy, his own father, is not as good as the second emperor uncle, an elder of the next generation?
Cao Shuang smiled and said nothing, this kind of matter between the heavenly families is not something that he can put his beak at will as a eunuch.
There was no response to the words, Zhao Duan glanced at him, then sighed and waved his hand: "That's it, you go to Uncle Erhuang afterwards and ask him how to make this fierce fire cabinet." ”
However, Cao Shuang said: "Your Majesty, it is not difficult to make the fierce fire cabinet, but if the imperial court wants to use it on a large scale, I am afraid it is not realistic." ”
"How so? Any questions? Zhao Duan wondered.
This production method is already available, so why can't it be used on a large scale?
Cao Shuang explained: "After the slave learned the news, it is not difficult to learn about the production method of this fierce fire cabinet, any carpenter can do it casually, but the most important thing about this fierce fire cabinet is the black fire oil used in it."
This black oil is the key to making the fierce fire cabinet have that kind of power, and the flame water will not be extinguished.
We don't know what this kind of thing is, and it's still an exclusive thing that only the Cloud King has, so even if we make the fierce fire cabinet, we can't use it without the black fire oil. ”
"Where did the second emperor's uncle get his oil?" Zhao Duan immediately asked.
Cao Shuang smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness King Yun gave King Zhenxi a token, and the black fire oil used by King Zhenxi was purchased from Feiyun Commercial Bank.
Without that token, Feiyun Commercial Bank did not sell black fire oil to the outside world at all.
And that token Zhenxi King didn't want to give us. ”
"Ah, this ......"
Zhao Duan was dumbfounded, no wonder this kid handed over the technology so generously, he was not afraid of stealing it himself, and the key source of his feelings was still in the hands of others!
This kid, I haven't seen it in the past few years, why did he become so slippery and don't keep his hands!
Seeing that there was no hope, Zhao Duan didn't continue to focus on this, and instead asked, "Did the second emperor uncle say when it would be over?" ”
Cao Shuang nodded: "The King of Zhenxi said that in half a month at most, he will be able to uproot the remnants of the Five Poisons Sect hiding in the mountains, and then he will go to other places to clear those remnants of the martial arts, and in half a year at most, he will be able to complete this matter of sweeping the rivers and lakes." ”
Zhao Duan nodded after hearing this:
"Uncle Huang is doing things, don't worry, since Uncle Huang said that he will be able to sweep away the remnants of the rivers and lakes in half a year at most, it will definitely not exceed one day, we are waiting for the good news of Uncle Huang.
In this way, this matter will be put aside for the time being, and Cao Ban will accompany you to ask the Imperial City Division to investigate the shipyards belonging to the imperial court in the southeast to me, how many of them can be used? How long will it take to build the most ships for the imperial court? ”
When Cao Shuang heard this, he immediately remembered the plan between His Majesty and King Yun when he was in Yunzhou County before, and said with a gleam in his eyes: "Your Majesty, are you going to start preparing?" ”
Zhao Duan nodded: "It's becoming more and more difficult to come to the imperial court's finances, and I can't always let me subsidize the treasury."
Since those weapons are useless, then use them to create a little value for the court and subsidize the court's current finances. ”
Cao Shuang was a little worried: "But Your Majesty, you also know that there must be a lot of things involved in these arsenals, if you move rashly, the slaves and maids are worried......"
"Worried about what? Worried about those people and dogs jumping off the wall? ”
Zhao Duan sneered, then waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I don't plan to expand to the whole country at once this time." Let's start with the capital arsenal.
And it's not right now. It's just that I have to make preliminary preparations first, and I really have to wait until the second emperor uncle comes back, with the second emperor uncle's town, I forgive those soldiers and even Yu Xungui who are involved in it, and they don't have the courage to blow up the thorns!
It's been a long time since I've seen the frightened look on the faces of these people when they face Uncle Erhuang.
It's been twenty years, and they must have missed the former Second Emperor Uncle very much.
Hahaha! ”
Looking at His Majesty with a smug smile on his face in front of him, Cao Shuang didn't know why, there was always a feeling of arrogance that His Majesty was a child after finding the support of his own adult.
To put it more accurately, it is dog fighting human power.
Forget it!
Cao Shuang hurriedly shook his head, how could he describe His Majesty like this!
After removing these messy thoughts from his head, Cao Shuang nodded heavily and said:
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the slave maid will send more spies to the southeast, and will definitely find out the real situation of Jiangnan Shipyard and Fuzhou Shipyard clearly!"
Zhao Duan nodded with satisfaction, and then commanded uneasily:
"By the way, let them be hidden. I don't know what they've been doing down there, but I guess there's a lot of unsavory stuff.
Don't let them think that we are going to investigate the bad debts of the shipyard, so as to destroy the shipyard, and then the gains will outweigh the losses. ”
"The slave understands this! Your Majesty, rest assured, you will not let those people notice! ”
"Good!"
