Of course Chang Wei didn't want this kind of thing, and after his request was made, the entire Ministry of Industry went crazy.

Originally, the Han Empire was an inland country that ruled the roost. Even if it wanted to launch a war or resist external aggression, it was nothing more than fighting on land.

What they need most is still what cavalry and infantry need, and they need to be equipped with armor horseshoes on horses, vehicles and soldiers, and so on.

Nowadays, there are batches of such things in the warehouse of the Ministry of Industry, but these are not what is needed now.

After the concept of warship was brought up by Chang Wei, all the ministers of the Ministry of Industry began to shake their heads.

Looking at their expressions, Chang Wei knew that these old guys should have denied their plan in their hearts.

But because of His Majesty's favor, he didn't dare to say it in person, so he could only obediently agreed.

"Everyone, the specific warship model I proposed can definitely be manufactured'~."

"Since you don't have the confidence to do this and speak up, I will let you overcome obstacles of varying degrees!"

"Otherwise, when the time comes, you agree to me, but you won't be able to do it. This crime of deceiving the king, you will have to bear it honestly!"

After hearing Chang Wei's words, all the old ministers and ministers shook their heads.

A few timid ones even knelt on the ground with a plop, shouting words such as His Majesty's mercy.

Chang Wei waved his hand, motioning for everyone to get up

He came to the front and displayed some blueprints and finished products from the Ministry of Industry.

Obviously, Chang Wei at this time already knew what their real trick was.

It is very important that the Ministry of Industry has been able to stand tall among the six ministries for a long time, and the cost is almost equal to that of the Ministry of War.

Whether it is for the construction of the city wall, the maintenance of the palace, and various other things, the cost is simply immeasurable.

The previous emperors never asked about this kind of thing, because in their opinion, it was something that could not be put on the table.

But it cannot be missing.

To some extent, His Majesty the Emperor, who is familiar with the books of sages, should stay as far away from such things as possible.

Only, except for Chang Wei, an alternative.

Because even the Ministry of Industry knew that since Chang Wei became His Majesty the Emperor, he had put forward corresponding suggestions many times for the Ministry of Industry to improve.

It even directly changed the construction methods of many buildings, and its final effect is unknown.

However, the Ministry of Industry did not spread any gossip because of this, which is enough to prove that those guys with high eyesight can't say anything about His Majesty's proposal.

The people watching the theater around were naturally watching with gusto.

For a long time, the Ministry of Industry has relied on means that have almost no contribution, but it has occupied almost the same expenditure as the Ministry of War.

This point has already made the other six departments envy and hate for a long time, and now Chang Wei's appearance is more like targeting the Ministry of Industry.

Once a few big figures in the Ministry of Industry dared to shake their heads and deny Chang Wei's suggestion, then the life of the Ministry of Industry would be over.

The other departments of the Sixth Ministry were waiting for this opportunity, as if Chang Wei came to the meeting hall of the Ministry of Industry to create a better opportunity for them.

If the Ministry of Industry can be completely pulled down from its position of occupying the latrine, then they will have a chance to go further.

It's just like the husband Zhang who stole the limelight in the court before, Zhang Shoufu used to be in charge of the Ministry of Rites.

Among them, there is a group of people who most want the Ministry of Industry to step down from that position.

Originally, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry were a pair of troubled brothers. They were both the object of ridicule by other departments, and they were also called the two most useless departments.

The two have always come here almost dependent on each other, but for some reason, the Ministry of Industry unexpectedly took a lot of money from the state treasury.

In this way, the two parties became farther and farther apart, and finally seemed to have become enemies.

No one expected this kind of situation. At this time, all the big figures from the six departments were watching, waiting for specific news from the Ministry of Industry.

"¨" Huh, I think the Ministry of Industry may not be able to please this time. No one can guess (Nuo Qian Zhao) the uncertain mood of His Majesty the Emperor! "

"They dare to play tricks on this matter, I think they are really tired of their lives!"

"During this period of time, thanks to His Majesty's supreme holy power, the tail is almost jumping into the sky!"

"Once the warship engineering department that went to sea this time really can't make it, which spoils the interest of His Majesty the Emperor, I see what they will explain. Will those old guys die?"

Voices continued to come from other places, and when someone wanted to identify them, they couldn't tell where they came from.

For them, everything that the Ministry of Industry has encountered at this moment seems to be a ladder for them to climb upwards.

And the person who can play a decisive role in this is naturally Chang Wei, His Majesty the Emperor.

And at this moment, in the meeting hall of the Ministry of Industry, the person in charge of the Ministry of Industry listened to Chang Wei's words.

His eyes were wide open, with an expression of disbelief. .

Chapter 593

Along with the other six ministries besieging the Ministry of Industry's fishing boat, Chang Wei entered the ceremony hall of the Ministry of Industry.

No one was with me.

After the news of the annihilation of the Allied Forces of Twenty Nations from the Gulf came back to the Imperial Capital, the entire Imperial Capital was elated.

As for Chang Wei himself, as His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Empire, his holy prestige has been improved to a higher level.

Chang Wei, who appeared in the hall of the Ministry of Industry at this time, looked at the several senior officials of the Ministry of Industry who were very old in front of him.

He knew that these few veterans in front of him were the only achievements of craftsmen in the entire Han Empire.

Even if it's him himself, he needs to pay attention to his words when dealing with these people.

But what surprised Chang Wei was that these old men didn't show arrogance at all.

The reason why he had this idea was because Chang Wei thought about the wrong question himself.

If there were these surviving old guys in the entire map before, they didn't pay attention to Chang Wei's emperor Sheng Wei.

Then, after experiencing almost zero casualties on the Gulf side, we killed the Allied Forces of the Twenty Nations and resisted the opponent.

No, it killed the opponent's prestige.

After the record of destroying the entire Twenty-National Allied Forces was reported back to the imperial capital, everyone put their tails up.

And this is the case with the few senior officials from the Ministry of Industry in front of them.

After hearing the news, on the one hand, they were happy that the Han Empire had such a talented and generous monarch.

On the other hand, he began to think seriously about whether he should seriously consider some of Chang Wei's previous proposals.

As the few remaining elders in the entire imperial capital, they even had a higher status and status than Zhang Fu, Zhang Shoufu.

It's just that he didn't ask about political affairs for a long time, and gradually faded out of people's sight.

If it's really about seniority, Mrs. Zhang may have to call these old people a teacher, which is not an exaggeration.

After all, when her husband won the first prize and became the number one scholar, one of the three old men was the chief examiner.

In terms of this relationship, he is not indebted to the teacher.

But this time, Chang Wei was alone.

After returning from a big victory by the bay, Chang Wei didn't make too much noise.

He asked Du Pont, the former commander-in-chief of the French Empire, to find a job in the corresponding department, and there were already relevant ministers under him, who submitted corresponding letters of recommendation according to his wishes.

But he arrived at the Ministry of Industry alone.

To further confirm the news that he had sent back in advance, he proposed his idea of ​​building a huge warship and sending it overseas to fight.

With the supernatural power of the annihilated Twenty-National Allied Forces, Chang Wei at this time is simply an irresistible existence in the eyes of several big bosses from the Ministry of Industry.

Although they are old, they are also very knowledgeable.

But in front of His Majesty the Emperor, he didn't dare to show his extraordinaryness.

He even offered to propose some improvements.

However, when Chang Wei really explained his intentions and some general plans to build a huge warship, the expressions of several old men changed instantly.

"Your Majesty, with our current technological means, it may not be realistic to manufacture such a huge warship as you requested."

A white-haired old man among the three old men spoke first.

He watched Chang Wei draw his thoughts on the paper step by step, resisting the urge to say a layman.

Forcibly suppressing his reluctance, he explained the current predicament to Chang Wei.

The other two old men were dumbfounded when they saw the size and function of the required warship marked by Chang Wei on the paper, as well as various specifications.

No one thought that when His Majesty the Emperor opened his mouth, it wasn't a lion's mouth at all, it simply didn't take money seriously at all!

If you really want to make this kind of thing, it's not impossible to make it, but can the treasury of your Han Empire withstand it?

"Not to mention, Your Majesty, the entire warship you requested must be made of steel."

"It's not that there are no, it's just that there are some difficulties, but it's according to your request."

"It's just that the size of a huge warship is almost five times larger than that of ordinary wooden warships in the past. Once this kind of thing is really put into actual combat."

"In the end, I'm afraid we haven't really fought such an iron shell, and I'm afraid we will sink to the bottom of the sea first."

Chang Wei turned a blind eye to the thorns in the words of the veteran ministers.

As a time traveler, talking to the other party about these too-real technical issues made him seem a bit naive.

This time he came here, on the one hand, he wanted to thoroughly understand the current level of craftsmanship in the Han Empire.

On the other hand, this is just to read out your own orders.

For him, since there is the Ministry of Industry, this is almost equivalent to the existence of the General Administration of Manufacturing.

Then why does he need to spend so much effort to change the world to find craftsmen?

As long as he can lay out the specific manufacturing process, I believe this smart person should not be unable to understand his plan.

Seeing that his words did not convince His Majesty the Emperor, the old man named Li Ke stood up.

He took out a chisel that was displayed above the meeting hall of the Ministry of Industry and was known as one of the symbols of the Ministry of Industry.

"Your Majesty, I think you should know about this natural chisel."

"It is one of the symbols of our Ministry of Industry, and it is also something used by the old minister's ancestors."

"The Ministry of Industry has always represented the highest level of craftsmanship. If you really have this request and want us to manufacture such a huge iron warship, of course we cannot refuse,"

""after all.You are His Majesty the Emperor, in the whole world, could it be that the king leads the land! "

"Could it be the king's minister, but I still want to persuade you that this kind of thing has been manufactured, and with the current national strength and treasury situation of the Han Empire, it may not be able to last for too long!"

"If you fight with a warship of this size, the supplies you need are simply unimaginable. Even if the veteran is not skilled in military affairs, at least he still understands the most basic arithmetic!"

The two old men next to him nodded repeatedly. It was obvious to them that Li Ke's words were polite enough.

Otherwise, even if it is His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Empire in front of them, it is impossible for them to leave much retreat for the other party.

But in the final analysis, Li Ke's words are a bit heavy after all.

Several people are ready to accept His Majesty's punishment.

But that's okay, if they can get out of this position, there is no need to cater to the unconstrained imagination of His Majesty the Emperor.

Who knew, Chang Wei's reaction really stunned several people.

"Well, what you said is good, it's true that I think a little too little."

"In this case, then I have a proposal. According to what you said before, the consumption and supplies required by this huge warship are too great."

"Then how about this, we can create another supply fleet for this huge warship, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?".

Chapter 594

Li Ke was stunned.

He was completely dumbfounded.

The same is true of the two old men next to them.
