Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1179 God's blessing

  Emperor Hongzhi pondered for a moment, and said: "Since this is the case, it is not easy to spend tens of millions."

  For Fang Jifan, the accounts are only on the surface.

   Just when everyone threw tens of millions of taels of silver into the water, just to build a steamboat.

  But I don’t know how many new materials need to be found, how many mechanical parts need to be modified, and even how many repeated improvements are needed to modify the hull in order to build this ship.

To a certain extent, the huge transformation experiments of such masters are all-round for the improvement of skills in all walks of life. Shipwrights, carpenters, blacksmiths... During the process of participation, countless new theories and new crafts Come out like spring water.

  Of course...Fang Jifan has no way to say it.

  What everyone sees is just this **** prodigal son, doesn’t he just have money? What's so great about having money...

  I want so much silver, hum...

   And then...they'll never have that much silver.

  Emperor Hongzhi also felt pain in his flesh.

Xishan Jianye and most of Xishan's industries, in fact, the old Zhu's shareholding ratio is not low. Some are held by Emperor Hongzhi, and some are held by princes. He has it.

   After all, Xishan invested in this steamship. In the final analysis, he still has his own money.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed, looked at Fang Jifan, and said, "What if the launch fails?"

   "This..." Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, if it fails, there must be something wrong. Of course, we must find out the reason, and then continue to improve."

  Emperor Hongzhi gasped.

   Want more money?

   "This is a scientific method, through constant trial and error, to find the right path." Fang Jifan added.

   "..."

  Now...Emperor Hongzhi dislikes science a bit.

  Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a long time: "On the day of testing the water, I will also go to see it. If I don't, I feel worried."

  Fang Jifan nodded: "Observe the order."

  Fang Jifan felt a little uneasy.

  Your Majesty, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a big supervisor.

  Fang Jifan is not sure whether the sea trial will be successful. If it fails, the good-looking ship will slowly submerge into the sea.

  But since His Majesty is going, you should make preparations as soon as possible. When the time comes, cut the ribbon or something for Your Majesty, just click it, Oye.

  Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao are about to leave.

  Then Liu Jian and others also left, and a group of people left Fengtian Hall.

  Liu Jian blushed and smiled at Fang Jifan, "Jifan."

  Fang Jifan hurriedly stepped forward: "What orders does Mr. Liu have?"

  Liu Jian held Fang Jifan's hand: "It's cold here now, it's chilly, but I heard that it's still hot summer in Huangjinzhou, and the scenery is very pleasant..."

   "Ah..." Fang Jifan tilted his head and thought for a while, "This... I haven't been there before."

   What a pity, there is plenty of silver in this life, but limited by geography, I can't go and see it. In my previous life, I was not limited, but I also wanted to see a bigger world, but unfortunately...poor.

  Liu Jian sighed: "You steamboat, can you also go to Huangjinzhou?"

  Fang Jifan said: "The original intention of the steamship is to shorten the distance...Of course, you can go to the Golden Island."

  Liu Jian took a deep look at Fang Jifan: "We must work hard."

  Throwing down these three words, realizing that Li Dongyang and Xie Qian were waiting for him, he lifted his legs and hurried away.

  Fang Jifan looked sideways, but saw a person looking at him resentfully.

  Looking at his angry appearance, it seems that Fang Jifan raped him.

  Fang Jifan was speechless, smiled wryly, and said, "Liang Shilang, why didn't you leave?"

  Liang Chu said angrily: "The old man just ask, what happened to my daughter."

  Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Very good, very good, Qianjin Bingxue is smart and good-looking, tsk tsk..."

   "The surname Fang..."

  Fang Jifan was shocked.

When I came to this world, to be honest, I have never seen a few big girls who show their faces, so... I am actually inexperienced. In this era, it is not allowed to praise the beauty of other people's daughters, especially when I am still a young man. This is hooliganism.

Fang Jifan immediately lowered his head: "Oh, what I mean is, she is very good. Our Xishan Academy is a clean place, so it is naturally very good. Qianjin is very smart and learns things quickly. She can already recite this medical theory back and forth. Yes, as her patriarch, I value her very much."

  Liang Chu's heart...is already bleeding, and he values ​​it very much...

  He was about to cry, wanted to stomp his feet and scold something, but finally lowered his head, like a defeated rooster, and said faintly: "Duke Qi..."

   "Huh?" Fang Jifan looked at Liang Chu.

  Liang Chu looked like two different people, muttering: "I'll leave it to you, little girl."

   "Of course..." Fang Jifan nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, we are all family."

   Liang Chu's old face twitched, but he seemed helpless.

  The daughter is still held by Fang Jifan.

  …

   "Ambassador Xu...Ambassador Xu..."

   Someone hurried to a woodshed.

  Xu Jingzheng was anxiously writing down the recent messages in the firewood room.

   This is Xu Jing's habit. After going to sea, every day's gossip must be recorded.

  In the past few days, he has been anxious and worried, and at the same time he has to set up defenses to prevent the continued sneak attack of the Franji.

  According to his spying, this fleet is what the Fran pilots call the Armada.

This fleet is almost the largest fleet in the history of Franji, and because of Franji, people attack each other, and there are many island countries with frequent naval battles. Regarding the technology of naval warfare and the construction of warships, Almost a thousand miles a day.

  Their shipbuilding concepts are based on actual combat, equipped with a large number of artillery, and the combat experience of the combatants is also extremely rich.

  On weekdays, the enemies encountered by the Ming Fleet are mostly solitary Francois ships, or ordinary merchant ships mainly engaged in cargo.

   And this fleet is the trump card of Franz Spain.

The soldiers who went ashore by Francois used the Spanish phalanx, selected professional regular army horses, and practiced day and night. The phalanx originated hundreds of years ago, but in these hundreds of years, it has been continuously On-the-spot combat and improvement, its tactics can be called the peak state.

   This raid was completely under the Xinjin Five Unpreparedness, and the opponent's training was orderly, and he was able to advance and retreat freely. He was really a terrible enemy.

  Now that we understand the opponent's general strength and combat methods, then... in the future, we must build an armed force to match it in the Golden Continent, but... how to supply and organize it?

  Xu Jing took a deep breath, and at this moment, he came back to his senses.

   Here comes the medical school...

  Xu Jing's heart sank, and his heart skipped a beat.

  It won't be...something will happen.

  Duke Lu has been in a coma for less than half a month...now...just waiting for the bad news.

  Xu Jing's face was as pale as paper, biting his lip, he walked out of Chaimen quickly.

   Sure enough, it was a nurse from a medical school. The man said: "Ambassador Xu, Duke Lu...woke up..."

   "Wake up..." Xu Jing was stunned.

  He stood there dumbfounded, actually in a trance.

   "Ambassador Xu go and have a look."

  Xu Jing followed the nurse top-heavy, hurried to the hospital, and then arrived at a silkworm room where the wounded were recuperating.

  Here, there is a pungent smell of alcohol.

  Fang Jinglong was naked, his body was covered with needles, and the other end of the needle was connected to another glucose solution.

  At this moment, he blinked his eyes, and the severe pain all over his body made him unable to move.

  Many wounds have healed.

  Back then, his life was saved by blood transfusion, but even so, he was still in a coma. Under the current technical conditions, he should have died a long time ago, maybe it was the blessing of heaven.

  For the infected wound, the doctors immediately performed an operation, cut off the carrion, passed out, and could use infusion to supplement the body's nutrients. In the drowsiness, it was like an endless nightmare.

In this nightmare, only the revolving scene of Fang Jifan and Fang Zhengqing passed by, which made him keep telling himself that he must be strong and survive. descendants come to the world.

   There is also Fang Xiaofan, she is going to get married in a few years, she has been in the palace all the time, but I don't know... I don't know... what happened.

  He finally woke up, and suddenly thought of the guards guarding him one by one before he fell down. They protected him like crazy, and resisted fatal injuries for himself.

  These old bros…

  Fang Jinglong didn't cry, he just opened his eyes weakly. Others still owed him a debt, a blood debt, and he needed to pay it with blood.

  Xu Jing came in in a hurry and bowed down: "Student... I have met the master."

   Xu Jing shrugged his shoulders slightly, but... cried.

   This is a miracle.

  Master is still alive. What does this mean? It means that the Fang family is virtuous, and even God cares for it.

Fang Jinglong couldn't sit up, still looking tired, he bit his lips: "Hurry up... Hurry up and send a message, hurry up... send a message to my son, tell him that his father... is still...don't worry him, this The mountains are long and the rivers are far away...cough cough..."

   Just to explain this?

  Xu Jing was quick enough to understand his master's mood. He got up and stepped forward...Seeing Fang Jinglong looking at him with burning eyes.

This is a heroic man who always loves to grin, but sometimes, he has a different kind of majesty, but now... he is weak, and he exerted all his strength: "I have to send it out urgently, and there are... soldiers What happened to our casualties, is Lao Qian still alive?"

  Xu Jing was silent.

   "Where's Lao Li?"

  Xu Jing remained silent.

  Fang Jinglong didn't ask any more questions, he was actually in a very peaceful mood: "The doctor said, I can't get angry, I must not get angry, I'm not angry at all now, I'm in a very peaceful mood, um... nothing, you don't have to worry."

  …

  Chapter 3 is delivered, ask for a monthly pass.
