The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son

Emperor Hongzhi was very satisfied with Fang Jifan.

This guy is also a great achievement.

So, wait for the court meeting to end.

Both Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan went to visit the Empress Dowager and greeted the emperor. Emperor Hongzhi recruited Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Fang Jifan, but wanted to say a few words of praise, but he saw him cheerfully, and he thought about it: "Tang Yin went to play and asked to be transferred to Qi Jingtong, etc. Not only that, but also the reorganization of the Ningbo naval division. From the Ningbo naval division, the elite soldiers and soldiers will be selected, following Ji Fan. What do you think of this? "

Fang Jifan said: "I am His Majesty."

The emperor Hongzhi nodded thoughtfully: "Then, I will take care of it." He knocked on the case: "Sooner or later, I will wipe out the fleet of Flemish aircraft.

He stopped and smiled: "I heard that you two want to repair the railway between Baoding and Tongzhou, don't you?"

This is Zhu Houzhao's specialty. Zhu Houzhao said: "Father Emperor, Baoding Mansion, Tongzhou, and Beijing Normal School. These three railways are all planned by the children and raised by Tongzhou and Baoding ...

"Fundraising?" Emperor Hongzhi was cautious about this.

To tell the truth, sometimes I read the debts of Baoding and Tongzhou, which is really shocking.

Loans to Xishan Bank were all over two million silver with two stripes.

Although its tax revenue has skyrocketed, it can be seen that it is really scary.

In this era, although there was a problem of impoverishment of the imperial court, or the eating of food by the local government, after all, it was still primitive, and like this, it was like no one who had borrowed money before, but no one who came before.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "I'm quite worried. I heard that these few railways are connected, and Ouyang Zhi's Shuli has made it clear that it needs to raise 15 million two thousand silver, which involves railways and steam vehicles. The number of purchases and maintenance costs in the later period is too large. I dare not criticize ... "

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Jifan: "Jianfan, let's not talk about the manufacture of this steam car. Let's talk about the rails laid by Xishan Jianye. The Baoding Mansion is difficult. Can't it be repaired at a bargain price. Railway construction? I mean, can profits be less? "

Fang Jifan understands Emperor Hongzhi's mood.

Is too expensive, and Emperor Hongzhi felt it was too much.

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty ... The steam train took countless efforts to be put into production today. Although this car was developed by the head of His Royal Highness, the manpower and resources available are amazing. Not only that, In the future, the laying of railways requires highly trained artisans to be foolproof. There are also countless artisans in the iron and steel workshops.

"This involves, up and down, dozens of industries, hundreds of workshops, hundreds of thousands of craftsmen. The prices are all derived from the countless efforts of Xishan Jianye and Xishan Steam Research Institute. If this price is lowered, it ’s because Ouyang Zhinai is a child ’s student, so what ’s the future? If the railway is laid and no money is made, what ’s worse is that the Steam Research Institute and Xishan Jianye also have Can you spend a lot of money to continue to improve the steam train and improve the construction process of steel and sleepers? Your majesty, you ca n’t make a loss of trading, because once you lose money, or it is unprofitable, in the long run, all of these industries that I know are all Has stopped, and it seems that several railways have been built now, and the country has taken advantage of it. But in the long run, it is all harm and no benefit. "

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly, and he could roughly understand what Fang Jifan said.

After all, there are academicians of economics around me, who will explain to themselves the principles of economics.

Hongzhi Emperor said: "Is there really no other way?"

"Yes!" Fang Jifan cut the nail.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes lit up: "Let's listen."

"Let the treasury take out the money and subsidize the Steam Research Institute and various steel workshops and Xishan Construction Industry. It is not much. About three or four million two years of silver a year is enough, so ..."

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

Let Baoding Mansion die.

Hongzhi Emperor said: "Oh, the matter of subsidies, discuss again from the long."

Fang Jifan blinked: "Her Majesty, don't you think about it?"

Emperor Hongzhi said: "I will consider it, but at the moment, the top priority is not a matter of building one by one. I am aware of the many pitfalls. I am really worried about it. I am thinking ... Well, I have negotiated with the Cabinet. You can leave. . "

"Oh." Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao obediently saluted and retreated.

The emperor Hongzhi beat the case, and waited for Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao to leave, only to say: "Company Xiao."

"The slave is here." Xiao Jing said.

"Remember, from now on, all the hundred officials will play the railway to create a lot of money and money, and they will all stay in the middle. I don't watch it."

Xiao Jing couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, the slave-servant thought, this Fang Jifan is simply bold, he actually used subsidies to threaten His Majesty, this ... it is really bold."

Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "You are a eunuch, what do you know? What he said makes sense, and he made it clear. Whatever things are needed in this world, silver is needed. If the treasury is not available, Baoding Mansion will be necessary. Go and borrow money from Tongzhou, this money will not be reduced, someone will always come out ... "

The emperor Hongzhi shook his head: "I saw this railway, but it is benefiting the country and the people, and it will not be repaired or succeeded. I don't care about it. Let them go and make trouble."

"Also!" Emperor Hongzhi suddenly looked at Xiao Jing coldly: "Dare to dare to chew on my tongue again in the future, and then pack up things and go to Xiaoling."

Xiao Jing shuddered, bowed, and said hardly, "Slave slave, **** it!"

Sumatra.

A merchant ship arrived in the port city of this archipelago.

Here, there is quite a bit of Franco style.

The Portuguese have been entrenched here for more than ten years. The huge harbor makes it a natural good port.

Just here ...

Greeted a guest from afar.

This distinguished guest, even the local governor of Portugal, respected him.

The nobleman apparently suffered from some cold and heat during the sea bumps.

At this time, he was half lying on the bed in a magnificent mansion. He was wearing a silk nightgown, and even the collar had special laces. At this time, the Portuguese Governor had invited a full-time haircut division.

After the barber was familiar with the illness of the nobleman, he said without hesitation: "The blood of the Lord Duke contains harmful things."

Noble man's wavy blond hair. After he heard the barber's advice, he nodded, and his blue eyes glanced at the barber.

Then, the priests and the governor of Portugal evaded some of them.

And the hairdresser moved out of his suitcase without hesitation.

In the box, there are razors, awls, scrapers, daggers ... and so on.

The hairdresser first went to the squeegee and took off a few strands of hair on the nobleman's head.

Then, the spittoon was taken and placed under the sickbed.

He solemnly said to the nobleman: "Your Excellency, health depends on the result of the contest between the right and evil gods."

He decided to get rid of the bad things in the nobles.

The barber picked up the razor and grabbed the nobleman's wrist.

He began to recite words like thank God.

This is very gratifying to the nobleman. He was tormented by his illness. He could not imagine that in the far east, he could actually see such an excellent barber here. Look at him.

The noble murmured softly, "May God bless you."

The barber nodded, and the razor began to cut the nobleman's wrist.

Then, the blood began to flow down the wrist.

The noble person began to close his eyes, he began to feel that the bad molecules in the blood began to strip off his body, this is a pleasant process, although in the process, there will inevitably be some pain, compared to purifying his body, eliminating the disease In terms of, obviously, this is nothing.

The blood flows more and more.

Outside, the sound of boots came.

A well-dressed attendant came in, bowed, and saluted: "His Duke, whoever you want, he is here."

The nobleman was immersed in the wonderful process of bloodletting. Yinhong's blood dripped down with his fingers. He felt a little tired. He shivered his dry lips, but still tried hard: "Bring him in."

Immediately afterwards, a ragged man came in a hurry, it was Wang Bushi.

Wang Bushi looked at the people in the room in panic, and naturally he also saw the prince.

This is a Spanish, because his clothes are embroidered with the coat of arms of the Aragon family.

He was busy taking off his hat, saying: "Your Excellency."

The noble raised his eyes lazily: "You came back from the escape of Daming, what happened there, my fleet, where are they?"

Wang Bushi looked at the governor of Portugal subconsciously.

The governor of Portugal, apparently, has received domestic consent. With this Spanish nobleman, he nodded to Wang Bushi ~ www.readwn.com ~ Wang Bushi only said: "The **** Ming empire expelled us, Most of the envoys were put in prison by them. As for the fleet, I heard that there was a Spanish fleet that had been attacked by them. They tricked traps and introduced the Spanish fleet into the harbor. Then, all of them were sunk. To this end, the Ming Empire held a grand celebration to celebrate this victory. "

These words ... no problem.

The nobleman was obviously a little angry.

He did not expect that the fleet that had disappeared was destroyed by the Ming Empire.

Now that Spain has fallen into panic, they cannot understand that such an advanced fleet will be defeated by the Ming Empire.

He tried hard to say: "Is there a trap of the Ming Empire, is this a conspiracy of the Ming Empire?"

"Yes." Wang Bushi said: "The ships of the Ming Empire, although large, are not suitable for combat, but the Ming people are very cunning. They are full of intrigues, and their tricks are endless. "

When the priest standing beside heard this, he couldn't help drawing a cross and muttered, "This is a devil abandoned by God. May God punish them for their atrocities."
