"In this case, wouldn't my Ming Dynasty be as stable as Mount Tai?"
Zhu Biao said happily.
"No."
"This truth is very simple. Even if Wang Baobao can't understand it for a while, he will come back to it after a while."
"So we need to strengthen the supervision of the mutual market to prevent too much conflict from breaking out and affecting the confidence of people on the Canyuan side in the safety and reliability of the mutual market."
"After all, it is difficult to improve their attractiveness, but there is no shortage of ways to discredit us."
Xiao Han said with a smile.
After listening to Xiao Han's words, Zhu Biao couldn't help but change his face slightly. It can be said that Zhu Biao knows how to cause destruction very well.
After all, Lao Zhu was born in a rebellion, and as a rebel, didn't he specialize in destroying Yuanting from the beginning?
In this situation, there are too many things that can be done.
"Should we directly send soldiers from the Ming Dynasty to the mutual market to check the market?"
Zhu Biao rubbed his hands and asked Xiao Han.
Xiao Han:…
"Can."
"As long as you're not afraid of scaring away the people on the other side."
Xiao Han nodded.
"Then..."
"Why are you panting while talking?"
"Then what do you think we should do?"
Zhu Biao was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the second half of Xiao Han's sentence.
"Leave it to Jin Yiwei."
"Business exchanges, the more the court interferes, the less likely they are to be active. In essence, it can be regarded as a kind of Jianghu affair."
"Jiujiang, Jianghu, Jinyiwei can also be regarded as a stopper to deal with Jianghu. Although their appearance is frightening, it is not panic."
"After all, they are not the officers and soldiers of our Ming Dynasty. The Mongols will not think that our Ming Dynasty wants to overturn the table. They really want to maintain the stability of Yuan and Ming commercial exchanges, rather than imposing overlord clauses."
Xiao Han said to Zhu Biao.
"That makes sense."
"Jinyiwei is indeed a good choice."
"But if we go to see the venue, I'm afraid there will be a lot of people sent. Our Jinyiwei's manpower is tight."
"It seems that we need to seize the time to develop Jinyiwei. Otherwise, if time goes by, we will really tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and the wind will leak everywhere."
Zhu Biao rubbed his eyebrows slightly.
Only then did Zhu Biao realize that Jin Yiwei seemed to have more wonderful uses than he thought.
In court, arena, commerce, and worldly matters, where the court cannot interfere or cannot intervene, Jinyiwei can play a big role.
"Then you have to go and keep an eye on it."
"I'm still quite busy here. I've finished writing the economics of Ming Dynasty, and I still have an industrial one to write."
"Writing textbooks is really troublesome. You have to be rigorous everywhere."
Xiao Han also had no choice but to speak.
In the previous life, I didn't seem to be a top scholar, but in this era, the contemporary scholars in various fields in later generations didn't get involved at all, and I actually became the only top scholar.
The problem is that Xiao Han only knows a rough idea of many things, and he has to get others to study them together.
Xiao Han is really sad for those protagonists in later generations who can achieve technological explosions just by mentioning principles.
Everyone is a time traveler, so why should Xiao Han want to cause trouble? The powerful families and wealthy businessmen have to stop him. Almost everyone who has money, power and status in the Ming Dynasty, except the nobles of Huaixi, will become a time traveler. The opposite.
Everyone else is in minimalist mode, but he is the only one who has to bear the shackles.
At every step, the reactions of all parties must be considered. It is not good to stimulate others too hard and make others flip the table.
"By the way, in the Lancang Kingdom, both sides have basically been defeated. According to the news over there, you think the clans are now as poor as beggars. Shouldn't we close the net?"
Zhu Biao turned to Xiao Han and asked.
"That's natural."
"The suffocation is in a urn. It's time for King Fa'ang of the Lancang Kingdom to give up the power of Lancang."
"My side has already made arrangements and preparations. Maybe it won't be long before our Ming side will receive King Fa'ang's request for confession."
Xiao Han chuckled.
"oh?"
"Wouldn't it be directly included in the rule?"
Zhu Biao asked.
"You think I don't want to?"
"But what are the geographical conditions over there?"
"There are deep mountains and old forests everywhere, and any clan can dominate the mountains and become king."
"Even if we directly set up a province there, those clans still won't listen if they want to."
"So, we can only settle for the second best, completely control the trading market over there, and make them surrender to our Ming Dynasty."
"For all the necessities of life, we have to rely on the Ming Dynasty's business. In this way, those clans will have no reason to join forces and resist crazily. Over time, when they get used to it, even if the Ming Dynasty does not ask them to merge into the Ming Dynasty, the people of Lancang will still think about it. Join Ming Dynasty."
Xiao Han explained calmly.
"Then...how long will it take?"
Zhu Biao asked tentatively.
"how could I know."
"Maybe...a few decades, a hundred years."
"In our lifetime, we want to see that unless the Agricultural College comes up with something shocking, it can extend life span."
Xiao Han sighed slightly.
"Is it really possible that there is an elixir of life in the world?"
Zhu Biao said in shock.
"No."
"Even if there was one, it would never be a pill."
"Don't make any calculations on this road. Throughout the ages, haven't there been many emperors who died while refining alchemy?"
"Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng fell, Han Wu Emperor Liu Che failed to hold on, what do we, the old Zhu family, have?"
Xiao Han asked back.
"what is that?"
"From what you say, although there is no elixir of immortality, maybe there is a way?"
Zhu Biao hoped.
Since he doesn't expect immortality, if possible, Zhu Biao still hopes to take care of Ming Dynasty for hundreds of more years.
After all, he couldn't let go of this few pages, and neither could Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Um…"
"Do you still remember what I said about the principles of improving rice seeds in the Agricultural College?"
Xiao Han was silent for a while and asked.
"I remember... you seemed to be talking about gene enrichment, gathering all the advantages to cultivate more powerful rice seeds."
Zhu Biao thought for a while and said.
"Then do you know what genes are?"
Xiao Han continued to ask.
"I know this. I've also seen the research section dedicated to the Agricultural College that you later added."
"It is the factor that determines all the external manifestations... sex... yes, traits of living things."
"Does it matter?"
Zhu Biao asked doubtfully.
"Then what if, I tell you, genes can actually be extracted directly and forcibly added?"
A smile appeared on Xiao Han's lips.
"What you mean is...take out the long-lived genes of trees and tortoises and put them into people!"
Zhu Biao was shocked.
"Um."
"In principle, it can be like this."
"But don't put too much hope in cultivating the super rice seed I'm talking about. I'm sure it can be done, but the time is uncertain."
"As for this, I don't even know if it can be made. The most important thing is that this thing also needs to be started from seeds."
"I can't say it's impossible to change the whole person, but I really don't know if it can be done. Even if it can be done, there's a high probability that you and I won't live long enough to do it."
"Don't think too much. I will definitely not be able to survive you anyway. I'm not in a hurry. Why are you in a hurry?"
"If this comes out of my mouth and into your ears, don't tell dad and mom. If a few years later, dad suddenly has the same idea as Emperor Qin and Han Wu and does something irrational, I will be a sinner forever. The best stickman in the Ming Dynasty. Haha."
"I will let the Agricultural College handle this matter. We just have to work hard. Whether we succeed or not depends on God's will."
Xiao Han smiled.
"good."
"I won't tell dad."
After hearing what Xiao Han said, Zhu Biao suddenly became serious.
What Xiao Han said is not impossible. After all, once people get older, they will crave life more. The higher the position and the more powerful they are, the more so.
Emperor Qin Yingzheng was like this, Wu Liu Che of Han Dynasty did not escape, and Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of Tang Dynasty had the same idea.
"But...the things that Taoist priests refine and refine, are they really not effective at all?"
Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment, then asked.
"Oh, this."
"I can tell you this for sure."
"It's no use!"
"Cinnabar, realgar, those things, even if the world is destroyed, you can't refine them to prolong life. What can be refined, they can only be poison."
"At most... Wushi Powder, you know, is commonly used by famous people in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Eating it makes people energetic. They made it to make people energetic on the surface. This is the principle, but in the end it must be poison. Not only can it not extend life, but it will basically shorten life." .”
Xiao Han chuckled.
"Absolutely no exceptions?"
Zhu Biao asked reluctantly.
"I dare not say this."
"But the probability is probably equivalent to the same as if a thousand arrows pierced the heart without killing him, and then opened up the Ren and Du's second vein."
"After all, poison is not safe even after it is used."
"What? Your Highness the Crown Prince is interested in taking a gamble?"
Xiao Han looked at Zhu Biao with a smile.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
"Don't be joking, Feng Xue, I still want to work for Daming for a few more years."
Zhu Biao had a dry cough.
Just kidding, isn’t it pure suicide to bet on this thing?
Zhu Biao wouldn't do such stupid things.
"Don't think about it if you don't want to."
"Don't do this stupidly all of a sudden, and end up not surviving me."
"Besides, as for what Dad said, Zhu Yuanzhang in my impression definitely doesn't do this, but who can say for sure. If one day you find out that Dad has this idea, remember to stop him."
Xiao Han said with a smile.
"Why didn't you stop me?"
"Father and mother dote on you more than they dote on me. Wouldn't it be the same if you opened your mouth?"
Zhu Biao snorted.
"Me..."
"To tell you the truth, if I hadn't developed something that could extend my life in the end, I might not be able to survive my father."
Xiao Han smiled bitterly.
Although Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was not the longest-lived emperor in ancient times.
But it can be considered the first echelon.
As an emperor, living to the age of seventy is already considered a long life.
Up to now, although Xiao Han and Zhu Biao both call Zhu Yuanzhang "old man", in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang is only in his forties, and will be in his prime for future generations.
Xiao Han couldn't find a gene to extend life, but he was still confident that antibiotics could be used.
Zhu Yuanzhang might live to be over a hundred years old, and Xiao Han himself, if nothing else, will be sixty or seventy years old, even if God gives him face.
