"My dear grandson."
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a while, then looked at Zhu Ming helplessly and sighed.
"We have thought about the two things you told Grandpa Huang last time when we got back."
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know how to tell Zhu Ming for a while, for fear of dampening Zhu Ming's enthusiasm for handling state affairs.
It's hard to find one of the princes and grandsons who wants to help him share the government affairs.
"Did Grandpa Huang encounter any problems?"
Zhu Ming raised his hand, touched Zhu Yuanzhang's unconsciously frowning brow, and asked distressedly.
These policies involve a lot, and problems can be expected.
"My dear grandson is so smart."
Seeing that Zhu Ming saw his dilemma, Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a sigh of relief for some reason and patted Zhu Ming's head.
"We can't get the money needed to build a big ship yet. We won't be able to find anyone who can go to sea for a while."
Zhu Yuanzhang tried his best to slow down his tone and patiently explained to Zhu Ming the difficulties he encountered in his ideas.
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Ming also touched his chin and began to think deeply.
I have been staying in the palace, and I really don't know much about Ming Dynasty's current financial situation.
If we want to put this matter of going to sea into practice, it seems impossible without money.
"As for the pilot..."
Zhu Ming has a way to deal with people who have money and can go to the sea.
Zheng He is here, and he still has Ender in his hand.
"I'll know who can lead the way tomorrow."
Zhu Ming raised his head and looked directly at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Um?"
A look of surprise flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
"Grandpa Huang, leave this matter to me!"
Zhu Ming patted his small chest and took over the matter.
This sea ban will be lifted no matter what.
If Zhu Yuanzhang is willing to delegate power to himself, then he can try it.
"My dear grandson, are you so confident?"
Seeing Zhu Ming's determined look, Zhu Yuanzhang was also inspired.
Since Zhu Ming wants to try it, let him try it.
Even if it doesn't succeed in the end, Daming will have nothing to lose and can still gain some experience for Ming'er.
"Grandpa Huang, let's try it tomorrow."
Zhu Ming nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, then let our dear grandson give it a try."
Zhu Yuanzhang also agreed generously. Anyway, with the Jin Yiwei here, there would be no danger tomorrow.
If we succeed, our good grandson will be able to accumulate some fame, and it will be easier to give Ming'er a status in the future.
After sending Zhu Yuanzhang away, Zhu Ming took out the world map.
It seems it's time to find that Ender.
Zhu Ming got up early the next day.
When Liu Jin saw Zhu Ming, who had already changed his clothes at dawn, he thought he had seen a ghost and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
After serving Zhu Ming for so long, how often has my little grandson not gotten up at the right time?
"Liu Jin, take me out of the palace later!"
When Zhu Ming saw Liu Jin coming, he looked at him seriously and spoke in a deep voice.
Liu Jin was also startled by Zhu Ming's serious look.
My little grandson feels like a different person.
"Then, the class in the main hall?"
He didn't know why Zhu Ming left the palace, so he asked hesitantly.
If you leave the palace now, you won't be able to attend the main class.
If His Majesty were to find out that he was the one who took the emperor's grandson out, he would probably be punished again.
"I won't go. Grandpa Huang agreed."
Zhu Ming responded casually, and then dragged Liu Jin towards the palace gate.
If it weren't for the fact that it was too troublesome for him to come in and out as a child now, he wouldn't have to bring anyone else's.
Liu Jin had no choice but to lead Zhu Ming tremblingly outside the palace gate.
The guard guarding the gate watched the little emperor grandson go out and did not dare to stop him. He could only open the city gate and let Zhu Ming out.
"Why didn't that boy come today?"
Xu Miaojin sat in her seat, looking at the door of the main hall from time to time, clenching her fists.
She promised Zhu Ming to give him a reward, but Zhu Ming confiscated her hairpin yesterday, so she specially picked her favorite thing today.
Unexpectedly, this Zhu Ming didn’t come?
Could it be that you are afraid of yourself?
"Little grandson, where are we going?"
Liu Jin took Zhu Ming and, under Zhu Ming's instructions, went to the busy market where he and Zhu Yuanzhang visited last time.
Since Ander didn't give a specific address last time, Zhu Ming could only follow the memory of last time and fumble towards the alley.
Until he saw a familiar blond hair, Zhu Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "Found it."
Ande sat on the ground, as if he had been waiting here for a long time. He stood up when he saw Zhu Ming behind Liu Jin.
"wait for me here!"
Zhu Ming let go of Liu Jin's hand and ran towards Ander.
"Little grandson, be careful."
Liu Jin watched Zhu Ming run towards the foreigner and could only give a warning from behind.
When did this little imperial grandson have such a strange-looking friend?
"I knew you would come to me."
Ander looked at Zhu Ming who came to the door, and he was not surprised at all. It was a navigation chart that he had spent a lot of effort to complete.
"follow me."
With that said, he turned around and led Zhu Ming into a small house in the alley.
Zhu Ming glanced at the house and said it was a pitiful house. It was just a single room, and even the tables and chairs were damaged.
Ender actually lived in a place like this.
"Temporarily rented, a bit rough."
Ander also knew that in the eyes of aristocratic children like Zhu Ming, such an environment was not pleasing to the eye.
"It's really not good."
Zhu Ming nodded and agreed with Ander's opinion as tactfully as possible.
"Why don't you let that guy in?"
Ander just shrugged indifferently and looked behind Zhu Ming.
"Um... I thought you wouldn't agree to have anyone else follow you."
Zhu Ming was also stunned for a moment when he heard Ander's question.
Normally, wouldn't we try our best not to let as many people know about this kind of secret meeting?
That's why he subconsciously asked Liu Jin to wait outside the alley.
"I didn't say that."
Ender shook his head, looking innocent.
"Forget it, don't worry about it."
Zhu Ming waved his hand and changed the topic. He didn't want to waste more time with Ander.
"What was your purpose in giving me the navigational chart?"
He looked at Ender seriously and asked again.
Ender didn't answer his question last time, and this time, he wouldn't let Ender fool him again.
"Want power."
Ender responded simply.
"that power?"
Zhu Ming frowned and looked at Ander warily.
Lao Zhu's Jin Yiwei, like Liu Jin, should be waiting outside the alley now.
If Ender behaves strangely, there shouldn't be any danger if he breaks out on his own and the guards are there.
"Yes, I can only be valuable if I let you go to sea."
