Nothing to do.
Zhu Gaoxu is preparing to go to Xishan.
Over the years, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau has developed into a behemoth.
Due to the strong support and development of Song Li, Minister of Industry, the Ming Trade Unions have spread all over the world, and there are Ming Trade Union offices in local prefectures, counties and counties.
The responsibility of the Ming Trade Union is also very simple, that is, it is responsible for statistics and protection of local craftsmen, especially those skilled master craftsmen. Once awarded the Master Craftsman Medal by the trade union, they will receive absolute protection from the Ming Trade Union, which is equivalent to the ownership of the gentry in disguise. Gained fame and privileges.
After all, every master craftsman is an out-and-out technical talent. In this era of Ming Dynasty, he was like a national treasure and deserved such generous treatment.
The Ming Dynasty Trade Union continuously selects top craftsmen with superb skills and then sends them to the Royal Manufacturing Bureau of Xishan Holy Land, thus forming a virtuous cycle and ensuring the continuous inheritance of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau.
In addition, from Xishan to the entire Beizhili, there were technical workers' colleges, which were completely funded by the imperial court and were specially designed to provide opportunities for children from poor families to learn skills.
They can learn how to support their families without paying any study fees. This is a great thing that ordinary people can't even dream of.
Therefore, these technical schools have received strong support from local people, and even local governments have included them in official assessments.
Because of Zhu Gaoxu's series of operations, Ming Dynasty is gradually moving towards the track of future generations.
On this trip, Zhu Gaoxu brought Song Li, the Minister of Industry, and Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Household Affairs, as well as Zhu Zhanji, the North American king who insisted on following him, and Nie Xing and other Jin Yiwei.
After all, Zhu Gaoxu is now the prince of the dynasty and will soon ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.
Therefore, even if it is a private visit incognito, just a trip to Xishan, the necessary protective measures must be taken.
As early as the first day, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau received news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming, so they made preparations early.
Director Hu Yuancheng personally led a group of master craftsmen to greet him at the foot of Xishan Mountain. His eyes were red with anticipation.
After a long time, the rightful owner finally arrived.
As soon as they saw Zhu Gaoxu, everyone fell to their knees.
Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly stepped forward and helped Hu Yuancheng up.
This god of firearms of the Ming Dynasty has made outstanding contributions to the Ming Dynasty over the years.
Under his leadership, the Xishan Royal Manufacturing Bureau continued to climb the technology tree, developed and improved Ming armaments, manufactured increasingly terrifying Ming firearms, and then put them into production to equip Ming soldiers!
The God of Ming Firearms is not an empty talk!
"Okay, everyone, let's get up and go to work. Don't you want to get your salary or support your wife and children?"
When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter.
It’s still a familiar scene, it’s still a familiar smell.
This prince has always remained true to his original intentions and is still so amiable and approachable.
Hu Yuancheng was slightly excited, pulled Zhu Gaoxu and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, is this really done?"
"I heard from Jie Gongbao that the Zen Ceremony of the Ministry of Rites is ready!"
Zhu Gaoxu nodded with a smile, not hiding anything from this absolute confidant.
At that time, Zhu Gaoxu was preparing to promote the new learning and give Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism a fatal blow, so he summoned a large number of scholars to the imperial edict to compile the textbooks and classics of the new learning.
Among them were Xie Jin, Hu Yuancheng, Chen Gongfu, Wang Jing, Zou Ji and others.
They can be said to be the first batch of new academic veterans, and most of them now hold high positions and hold great power.
Only Chen Gongfu, a master of Xin Xue, was tricked by Cheng Zhu Jinshen. He was beaten to death and never saw the day when Xin Xue became a success.
Among the several elders, Xie Gongbao and Hu Yuancheng had the best relationship, so they had a closer relationship.
After Hu Yuancheng became the director of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau, he focused exclusively on the technology tree, so he rarely interfered with the government affairs of the court. Even in the previous battle for the right to inherit the throne, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau never intervened.
After all, they are just a group of technical talents, who are all national treasures of the Ming Dynasty. You can't let them go to war with trolls, right?
After the battle for the succession was over, Zhu Gaoxu officially became the prince, and he could no longer do as he pleased as before. He even traveled to Nanjing many times and rarely came to Xishan for inspections, so Hu Yuancheng had never been able to meet Zhu Gaoxu.
Now that we finally met him, we suddenly learned the news that the Crown Prince was about to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. It was really touching.
"Prince, I have finally waited for this day!"
Hu Yuancheng's eyes were slightly red, and he sighed inexplicably.
"If Mr. Gongfu is alive in heaven, he should rest in peace!"
It can be said that Hu Yuancheng's life in prison was the most comfortable life.
This group of scholars does not need to do anything. They only need to sit and discuss knowledge, and then compile it into a book. That's it.
There is no intrigue or power struggle in the Prison Research Institute. Everyone is a scholar of various doctrines. Let’s chat and exchange knowledge together, and then grill skewers and drink some wine on the hour. Life is simply not easy. So comfortable.
However, although there is no conflict, the factions are different after all, so small groups have emerged.
Only Hu Yuancheng, the Annan man, and Chen Gongfu, the spiritual master, were slightly ostracized by everyone, so they had always had a good relationship with each other.
However, who could have imagined that Chen Gongfu would just disappear, and Hu Yuancheng was devastated for a long time.
When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't worry, that boy Xianzhang has made his mark. If Mr. Gongfu is really alive in heaven, he should also be smiling."
Chen Xianzhang is Chen Gongfu's remaining disciple. After Mr. Gongfu was killed, Hu Yuancheng personally rushed to Xiangshan Academy to pick him up. After that, Zhu Gaoxu took him with him to train him personally. Not long ago, the imperial examination resumed, and he became the best in high school. Became the number one scholar in a new subject.
This dazzling achievement really makes Mr. Gongfu proud!
Hu Yuancheng forced a smile.
What he was talking about was not just this matter, but Zhu Gaoxu's accession to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor.
When Zhang Fu died that year, the conflict between the king of Han and the prince was irreconcilable.
Hu Yuancheng had reminded Zhu Gaoxu many times, hoping that he would work hard and compete for that position.
After so many years, I finally waited for this day.
When Zhu Gaoxu ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, their confidants would naturally follow the rising tide.
Hu Yuancheng didn't value power very much. He only valued the Royal Manufacturing Bureau and his hard work over the years.
If Zhu Gaoxu fails, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau will naturally be implicated, and at least he, Hu Yuancheng, will definitely be pulled down!
Fortunately, none of this happened!
This Prince of Han has not only secured his position as crown prince, but will soon ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor!
In this way, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau will be as stable as a mountain and will not be stolen by villains!
Hu Yuancheng looked at Zhu Gaoxu with complicated emotions, a sincere smile on his face.
Mr. Gongfu, you should also close your eyes, right?
