After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

"And even if the technology is not lost, the wooden ox and horse can only be used to transport grain, not coal." Yang Xiandao, "Because the load capacity of the wooden ox and horse is not enough, it can't transport much at one time."

"We are not talking about wooden cattle and horses, but a brand-new iron carriage." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Transporting tens of thousands of catties at a time is almost the transportation volume of ten coal carriages. And there are no horses, and the saved horses can be used Yu cavalry. And it won't shit and pee, and it won't turn the official road into a cesspool."

"How can there be such a thing in the world?" The officials were surprised.I wanted to say in my heart, Your Majesty, you are talking in your sleep.

"Your ministers are ignorant, but it doesn't mean that there is no such thing in the world." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Tell you the truth, Mr. Qin has already invented such an iron carriage."

"The car we are talking about may not be understood for the time being. Let's put it this way, it is like a steam turbine spinning machine that can run automatically, and it can transport coal by itself!"

As soon as the words fell, suddenly, the entire court was silent!

Mr. Qin has invented it! ? ?

At first we thought the emperor was talking in his sleep, but Mr. Qin had already invented it!

Mr. Qin, invented another magical machine?Like a spinning machine?
In the past, he invented the spinning machine that can weave cloth by himself, and now he invented the iron carriage that can transport coal by himself! ?This person... how should I put it, he is simply an extraordinary creation, a creation of heaven and earth!
As the leader of the Huaxia think tank, it can be said that he is not false at all.

"This man is simply a fucking god!" Even those feudal nobles who hated Qin Yu deeply felt that this man was awesome, simply too awesome.

To be an enemy of such a person seems to be a little suspicious of shaking a big tree.

"Mr. this car has already named it Dongfang Tielong!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Dongfang Iron Dragon! ?
The ministers were shocked when they heard the words, and the image of iron dragons speeding along the official road of Daming began to appear in their minds, and these iron dragons were all pulling carts of coal.

"If Mr. Qin hadn't created the Dongfang Iron Dragon, do you think we would overhaul the official roads across the country? The overhaul of the official roads across the country is to prepare for the future galloping of the Dongfang Iron Dragon!"

"May I ask your Majesty, if Dongfang Tielong doesn't eat grass, then what does it eat?" A minister stood up and asked a question, "As we all know, people need to eat to have strength, and horses have to eat grass to pull things... President Dongfang Tielong It’s impossible to work for us endlessly without eating anything, he has to spend something.”

Because the iron dragon was described by Zhu Yuanzhang as miraculous, some pedantic ministers thought it was some kind of monster that wanted to eat human blood or eat children.

There is no way, these things are in the heads of the ancients.

"That's a good question." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "It eats something called diesel, and it consumes a small can of diesel per kilometer!"

"Diesel oil?" The ministers were puzzled: Can oil be squeezed out of firewood?

Based on the knowledge of these ancients, when they heard the word diesel, they thought it was the same as lard.Lard is extracted from meat, so of course diesel oil is extracted from firewood.

"Why is it so tiring to talk to you people who have never seen the world?" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, "To tell you the truth, diesel oil is extracted from petroleum."

"Oil, you must know about it."

"My Majesty, I really don't know, please forgive my ignorance, and ask the Emperor to enlighten me." Gao Qi stepped forward and said.

Sure enough, as Qin Yu expected, "Mengxi Bi Tan" was regarded as a book of ingenuity and ingenuity in the eyes of the ancients, and they, the three great Confucian scholars in the early Ming Dynasty, didn't even bother to read it.

"Fortunately, you guys are still famous scholars in Ming Dynasty, with such a great reputation." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "After you go down, read the "Mengxi Bi Tan" written by Shen Kuo from the Song Dynasty."

"Is there a record in "Mengxi Bi Tan"?" Song Lian asked suspiciously, "I remember that it is a miscellaneous book, and it can't be put on the table. Since your majesty asked me to wait to read it, I will study it carefully after waiting."

"Okay, we don't bother to wait for you to go and hold Buddha's feet temporarily, and the day lily will be cold when you understand it." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "According to the records in "Mengxi Bi Tan", there are natural oil productions in Shaanxi Province."

"And diesel is made from petroleum."

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, what is refinement..." Another minister stepped forward and asked.

"I don't even bother to explain to you what refining is, you illiterates!" Zhu Yuanzhang became impatient, "When will I explain everything to you? You just need to know that diesel oil is obtained from petroleum." just come out,'

"Without oil, there is no diesel,"

"Without diesel, Dongfang Tielong would have nothing to eat, and it would not be able to help us transport coal and military rations." Inadvertently exposed his intention to use Dongfang Tielong in military affairs.

The officials were ashamed and extremely embarrassed when Zhu Yuanzhang reprimanded them.There is no way, compared with Emperor Zhu or Qin Yu, their knowledge is so unbearable.

They don't understand anything, and everything needs to be explained by others in order for them to understand.

"And the oil reserves in my Ming Dynasty are very small, not enough for thousands or even tens of thousands of Dongfang Iron Dragons." Zhu Yuanzhang stabilized his mood and continued.

"Then may I ask, Your Majesty, which neighboring country has more oil?" A general rolled his eyes and asked.

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored him, but said to the ministers: "Ministers and workers, do you remember the Tianfang envoys who came to my Ming Dynasty to act as demons a month ago?"

Of course, the ministers remembered that when the Tianfang envoys came to Da Ming to show off their power, they almost brought disaster to Da Ming.But then the problem they raised was solved by a sweeping monk from Jixia Academy.

"The ministers will naturally remember." Li Shan said long.

"The envoys of Tianfang are too rude to my Ming Dynasty, and they must be taught a lesson." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "If not, other small countries in the future will follow my example and come to my Ming Dynasty to show off their power."

"If things go on like this, where is Daming's national prestige and face?"

If there must be a reason to go to war, sending envoys to provoke Daming is the reason.

And it's an excellent reason.

The officials were dumbfounded when they heard this!

I remember that after the Tianfang envoys were defeated, many ministers were upset and asked Emperor Zhu to punish the Tianfang envoys.This is also the reason for saying that if the envoys of heaven are not punished, other countries will follow suit, but Zhu Yuanzhang reprimanded them, saying that they do not have the demeanor of a big country, and they should be pardoned.

And now it has been a month since the incident, Zhu Yuanzhang actually brought up the old incident again, saying that they would be punished.

With the reasons he himself refuted.

This cold rice was fried for him.
