After Zhu Jianshen listened to Xu Youzhen's words, his face was slightly unhappy. Why couldn't this guy understand the holy will on this issue?
After thinking about it carefully, no wonder Xu Youzhen.
At sea, Daming has not been the eldest brother for more than 20 years.
As one of the most prosperous areas in the world, their desire for the sea has become very low.
Xiaoying has no choice. If she doesn't go to sea, she will die.
"Censor of Xudu, have you not read the navigational charts left by Zheng He? A long voyage cannot be satisfied by a treasure ship. The sea is not as good as the inner river. The navy's warships are fine in the offshore. If If you want to make a long voyage, you will not meet the requirements. If you really want to follow Zheng He's voyages to the West, you must build new ships on a large scale. Only in this way can you be less dangerous on the sea."
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Jiang Yuan had few friends in the court, so he could only seize the opportunity by himself. When Jiang Yuan first learned that His Majesty had plans to go to sea, he immediately asked Zeng Zanghai, the capital's chief minister. The opinions of ship officials are also quite familiar with warships across the country.
Although the warships in the current Daming Navy are huge, they do not break away from the category of flat ships. Such ships cannot travel long distances in the sea.
What Jiang Yuan said made Xu Youzhen look stunned. She had spent the past few days chatting with His Majesty and had never done any homework. Xu Youzhen secretly glanced at Zhu Jianshen. It was over. Your Majesty became interested.
Zhu Jianshen was indeed interested. He didn't know much about ships. He only knew that the Ming Dynasty's shipbuilding industry was awesome, but he couldn't say much about how awesome it was.
As for ships for long voyages, Zhu Jianshen only knew about fortune ships and treasure ships. He thought that as long as a treasure ship was built and accompanied by medium-sized ships to escort, it would be able to sail far away.
But now it seems that it is not that simple, and the truth inside is profound.
"Can Shangshu Jiang tell me something?" Zhu Jianshen was very curious about knowledge.
"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to talk more, it's that I only know this. However, I have invited dozens of experienced boatmen from Nanzhili to arrive in Tongzhou today, and I will also go to Tongzhou. There, I will I will consult these boatmen about their knowledge of ships, and then watch the cargo ships coming and going at Tongzhou Wharf to learn more about them according to local conditions. Two days later, I will ask to see Your Majesty again and convey to Your Majesty all that I have learned about the classification of sea ships and river ships."
Zhu Jianshen nodded with satisfaction: "Thanks to Jiang Shangshu for your hard work."
This kind of official is the official.
Zhu Jianshen was already somewhat interested in Jiang Yuan.
On the way out of the palace, Cao Jixiang, Xu Youzhen, and Jiang Yuan walked side by side, each with their own agenda.
Xu Youzhen said with a smile on her face: "Jiang Shangshu, do you think I can go to Tongzhou with you?"
"The censor of Xudu is busy with official duties, so he should stay in the capital to accompany His Majesty." Jiang Yuan refused.
Now that the imperial court is so deeply involved in involution, you must master a skill that others don't understand, otherwise how can you fight your way out of the involution army.
If Xu Youzhen also knew more about shipbuilding, would he be able to distinguish himself?
"Eunuch Cao, why don't you stay in the capital to accompany His Majesty and let me go to Tongzhou on your behalf. When you come back, I will tell you a detailed story." Xu Youzhen turned her attention to Cao Jixiang again.
Cao Jixiang looked helpless: "If the Censor of Xudu is willing to go to the Western Sea on my behalf, then let the Censor of Xudu go to Tongzhou."
How could Cao Jixiang not care about his wealth and life?
Zhu Jianshen had just accepted Cao Jixiang's new destiny to supervise the shipbuilding affairs, so wherever Jiang Yuan goes, Cao Jixiang will go, and in a few days, he will rush to Longjiang Shipping Company to supervise the construction of the treasure ship, and he will also have to work with Other authorities contacted the yamen to find sailors who were sailing.
Regarding the voyage to the West, Cao Jixiang was worried and excited at the same time.
Cao Jixiang's understanding of eunuchs is that they serve their masters. If you want to have great power, you must serve your master well and let the emperor trust you. Then you can do whatever is wrong in the capital and make trouble for others.
The reason why I am excited is because I am very likely to become a figure like Zheng He and leave a name in history, although I will have to suffer some hardships.
And Xu Youzhen really wanted to visit Tongzhou.
After Cao Jixiang left Jiangyuan Palace of Qianqing, he packed up and headed towards Tongzhou. Only Xu Youzhen sat bored in the yamen, thinking about the maritime affairs.
His Majesty jumped a little too fast and was beyond his own thoughts.
He is now a popular person beside His Majesty the Emperor, and he cannot be overtaken by others.
It seems there is no end to learning.
………………
In the Palace of Qianqing.
Zhu Jianshen closed his eyes and rested his mind.
He was very interested in what Jiang Yuan said.
He also knows that the future of Ming Dynasty lies at sea.
I just regret that I am too young now and can only rely on Yu Qian, Li Xian and others to control the government. If I grow up, I can directly bypass them, open a seaport, and plunder.
The peak of colonization had not yet arrived.
Ming Dynasty will definitely take the lead in the battle for ocean hegemony.
What he needs to do now is to let Longjiang Shipping Company play its true historical role, and let long-distance warships be built from Longjiang Shipping Company and go to the vast sea.
Just when Zhu Jian was deep in thought, Zhang Bao walked in from outside the palace.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Wu Yang has entered the capital."
After hearing this, Zhu Jianshen said: "Hurry up and let him enter the palace to see me."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"By the way, let Yu Taibao and others come over too."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhang Bao took the order and went down.
Shi Heng was really impressive this time.
Thousands of cavalry and hundreds of carts escorting gold, silver, and rare treasures entered Beijing through Desheng Gate.
The people on both sides were pointing and talking.
"The one at the front is our General Shi Heng. I heard that he killed tens of thousands of people in Liaodong. Look, the heads of the Jurchens should be in that car. These are the heads of the Jurchens who came to Beijing to receive the reward."
"Nonsense, my nephew was on duty at the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion. It's stated in the military documents that he killed hundreds of thousands of people. Besides, he was running around the world with his head in his hands. Those were all captured treasures of gold and silver."
"How majestic."
"I see, sooner or later our Ming Dynasty will have a new prince."
"That's right."
After two years of fighting in Liaodong, the news had already spread among the people in the capital.
What does Shi Heng do? A general on the battlefield, nothing works except his ears.
He listened to the people's comments about him, and felt extremely satisfied in his heart.
The Duke of the country. BIquGe.biz
If you work hard, maybe you can really get a prince for my old Shi family.
And Shi Biao followed behind Shi Heng: "Uncle, maybe His Majesty will summon us later."
"It's me, not you." Shi Heng's face paused after hearing this, and he said coldly.
"Uncle, my nephew hasn't seen His Majesty nearby yet, so please take me to see him."
"Who made you dissatisfied? Such a big scar on your face scared your majesty. What should I do? You should go back to the mansion first."
After listening to Shi Heng's words, Shi Biao sighed.
The spoils of war shall be jointly inspected by the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
As soon as Shi Heng arrived at the gate of the Central Military Governor's Mansion, he saw three young eunuchs standing beside Cheng Guogong and Tai Ninghou and other generals outside the mansion.
He turned back and glanced at Shi Biao, and said in surprise: "Biao'er, look at His Majesty, he really wants to summon me to the palace to face the saint."
Shi Biao didn't look very good, he just nodded and didn't respond.
Shi Heng could see that Shi Biao was unconvinced, but Duke Cheng and others were looking at him. He couldn't go up and use his family skills. He could only give him a look and let Shi Biao deal with it...
