To solve the problem of chemical fertilizers, there are basically two steps.
One is to first transport a large batch of fertilizers there, and the other is to spread fertilizer factories all over the Ming Dynasty.
When the factory covers it, it will be much more convenient for ordinary people to buy fertilizers. They do not need to be uniformly allocated by the Ministry of Household Affairs every time, which can reduce a lot of costs.
Today, fertilizer factories are basically concentrated in Guangzhou, Annan and Yingtian.
Other areas have not yet developed, but it will be necessary to spread them in the future.
"My dear grandson has a good idea."
"But, can those fertilizer technologies be passed on to others?"
In Zhu Yuanzhang's understanding, the technologies in the Science Pavilion are extremely important and cannot be passed on to others, not even chemical fertilizers.
If fertilizer factories are to be established across the country, the technology must be passed on.
Zhu Xuan said: "Grandpa Huang, don't worry, the technology of chemical fertilizer is not too important, not to mention that it is passed down for the sake of the people. This is also a good thing for the country and the people."
In this regard, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, which was in agreement.
In fact, it is only a matter of time that some of the Science Pavilion's technologies will be spread out, and Zhu Xuan has no control over it.
As long as the core and most advanced technology is in hand, other ordinary technologies will not matter even if they are spread. For example, the current fertilizer technology is actually nothing.
"That's fine."
Zhu Yuanzhang took the memorial and reviewed it: "We will arrange people from the Ministry of Household Affairs to first transport a batch of free fertilizers to those places that request fertilizers, and then arrange people from the Ministry of Works to set up fertilizer factories in various places. For technical personnel, just If you need a good grandson, you can arrange it here."
Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "Of course there is no problem. Grandpa Huang has sent an imperial edict to the Science Pavilion, and all arrangements can be made."
"There's also this drought issue."
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up another memorial.
Zhu Xuan said: "The drought is also easy to solve. It should not be so severe that there is no water to drink. According to the content of the memorial, it is probably a shortage of food. They sold all the stored grain from last year's harvest. We will prepare a batch of grain." Just go over there.”
The drought is so severe that you can't even drink water. Such a drought is extremely serious.
The Ming Dynasty has not yet experienced a drought of this magnitude.
Nowadays, there is an inexhaustible amount of food in warehouses throughout the Ming Dynasty. Since there is a drought and food shortage, it is easy to solve the problem by allocating food. This problem is indeed not serious.
Zhu Yuanzhang also agreed after hearing this. He was very pleased to see that Guaisun could handle the memorials skillfully. He could rest assured when he handed over the Ming Dynasty to Guaisun in the future.
"My dear grandson is becoming more and more mature now."
Zhu Yuanzhang said happily.
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "It's all because of the good teachings of Grandpa Huang. My grandson is learning from Grandpa Huang."
Lao Zhu was in a good mood after being complimented by his good grandson.
They continued to read other memorials.
However, Lao Zhu refused to show Jin Yiwei's memorial to Zhu Xuan, as if there was something in it that Zhu Xuan could not know, and Zhu Xuan did not force it.
It was already late at night when I had finished reading the memorial.
Zhu Xuan persuaded Lao Zhu to go back and rest as soon as possible. He was too old to stay up late for too long.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was really resting, Zhu Xuan returned to his small courtyard.
Hou Xian asked people to bring hot water to give Zhu Xuan a bath.
"Your Highness, I heard that the East Palace has been renovated by Your Majesty."
What he meant was that Zhu Xuan could almost live in the East Palace and officially become the emperor's grandson.
"These things are not something you can just talk about."
Zhu Xuan replied lightly.
"This slave deserves to die!"
When Hou Xian heard this, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
Zhu Xuan ignored him and let him kneel and kowtow. He waited until the bath was finished before letting him get up.
Next, Zhu Xuan had nothing else to do.
When I wake up, it's the next morning.
Yun Qi came over early in the morning to wake up Zhu Xuan, saying that Lao Zhu would continue to take Zhu Xuan to court.
Zhu Xuan changed his clothes, fixed his hair, and came to the main hall.
"Your Majesty, I have this memorial."
Fang Xiaoru was still the first to come forward, glanced at Zhu Xuan who was sitting next to Lao Zhu, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the little emperor has come back from Guangzhou. I think the matters in the next three years have been sorted out, so I won't be able to study well." It can’t be more abandoned.”
Even if he is not a saint, he still has the responsibility to urge Zhu Xuan to continue learning cultural knowledge for the sake of future governance.
Although there is no longer a dispute between civil and military officials, civil servants still have a sense of superiority.
They must let Zhu Xuan get as close to civil servants as possible and stop hanging around with military generals.
Over the years, Zhu Xuan has been hanging out with military generals for a long enough time. It is time to give them civil servants a chance to support Zhu Xuan as emperor.
"What do you think, my dear grandson?"
Zhu Yuanzhang did not agree immediately, so he had to see what Zhu Xuan thought.
Zhu Xuan said: "Mr. Fang is right, I should calm down and study hard."
The next issue of study is not something that Zhu Xuan can decide. He has to cater to the thoughts of those civil servants. Although he does not like those rotten Confucians and bitter Confucians, he cannot do without them in the court.
Without their support, Zhu Xuan, the grandson of the emperor, would not be easy to serve.
"Your Majesty is wise, Your Highness is wise."
Fang Xiaoru was overjoyed when she heard that Zhu Xuan agreed and was willing to return to the main hall to study.
Kong Gongjian and other Confucian scholars and civil servants were even more excited at this time. His Highness was finally willing to get close to the civil servants again. This was a good change. Many civil servants set their sights on Kong Gongjian and Fang Xiaoru.
In the entire court, they are the ministers who have the best knowledge and are the most qualified to serve as the teacher of Xiao Huangsun.
Seeing this, Kong Gongjian raised his head proudly, as if to say, I will not let you down, and I will definitely teach the little emperor and grandson to study the saint's classics well.
Zhu Xuan: "..."
Seeing the appearance of Wen Chen below, he didn't know what to say.
But one thing is for sure, my good days are coming to an end.
"Is there anything else?"
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said: "If not, let's discuss the matter of chemical fertilizers."
Fertilizer is related to the national economy and people's livelihood. None of the ministers below have objections. The ministers of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household directly expressed their approval and will make arrangements immediately.
A court meeting finally came to an end.
The official in charge of the main hall is still Fang Xiaoru. After retiring from the court, Fang Xiaoru first asked Lao Zhu to let Zhu Xuan go back with him.
Lao Zhu was unusually easy to talk to and agreed directly.
Return to the main hall.
Zhu Xuan felt a little strange here.
I still miss the days when I was here with my uncle, my second brother, and the others, especially when we had dinner together.
At that time, Zhu Yunwen was still competing with himself.
He even asked Zhu Yunzhen to hit him.
However, Zhu Yunzhen was gone, and Zhu Yunzhen had already moved out and established a palace outside.
Things are different and people are different.
Those currently studying in the main hall are some young imperial uncles, about the same age as Zhu Xuan, and some of the emperor's sons who stayed in Yingtian.
