Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 460: behemoth
Chapter 460 Colossus
After Xu Jing finished speaking, he turned around indifferently and looked towards the horizon: "Some people are born rich; some people are born poor; After going into the sea, what did you see?"
"What?" Yang Jian was puzzled.
This is the difference between scholars and ordinary people.
Scholars are locked in the study, maybe they are nerds, but if these nerds are released from the cage, they will learn to observe and understand the world.
The more knowledgeable he is, the deeper his understanding of affairs will be.
"Daming's wealth will come from the sea in the future. No matter if they are rich or poor, high or low, if they go to sea, then...they are the same people. They are on the same boat, eat and sleep together. Before going to sea, whether they are Thugs are good citizens, government officials, or honest old farmers. They may be buried in the belly of a fish, but they may also be rich after returning to land. Now, do you understand? The sea, given to countless people... will It's an opportunity!"
Yang Jian was lost in thought.
Xu Jing eloquently said: "Just like the princes of the Ming Dynasty, 90% of the princes of the Ming Dynasty came from the founding of Emperor Taizu Gao, or from the battle of Emperor Wen Jingnan; Those who are rare, why is this? Because there is no reward in the Ming Dynasty, and there is no gift to give. So, those who are ambitious, either they are bound by subordinates and mediocre officials, or they have to commit themselves to being thieves. Don’t you realize that? After Emperor Wen, the rebellion in Ming Dynasty has become more and more serious day by day, do you know why?"
Xu Jing raised his head: "It's because those who have ambitions have nowhere to stretch. The sea actually gives them a new opportunity to make contributions."
"The Ming Dynasty had tens of thousands of people, but the number of people with lofty ideals was unknown. When the court failed to make people make contributions, it was the time when thieves arose everywhere."
"I, Xu Jing, will go to the West again and again, under the orders of the emperor, under the teachings of my benefactor, and will lead many people with ambitions to establish a feat that lasts forever. Daming has banned going to sea once, and there can be no more Next time."
"So, editor Xu brought back such an envoy, in exchange for such a rare item?" Yang Jian couldn't help but wonder.
Xu Jing smiled slightly: "Yes, if there is no huge profit, how can people accept the voyage to the West? The imperial court ordered people to go to sea to find the rumored high-yield crops, but what if they can't find them? So, before that, we must Let people realize how much wealth there is in the ocean. Naturally, we also need to use this wealth to enrich the national treasury. Only in this way can the imperial court and the people of the world be inseparable from us."
He paused: "These are all the teachings of my mentor. My mentor is really an amazing person."
Yang Jian nodded half-understood, but there was one sentence that he understood very well, that is...that Uncle Xinjian is awesome.
...
These days, letters from Guizhou are very frequent.
They all asked Fang Jifan how he was doing recently and how he was at home.
Although Fang Jifan is very happy every day and has received congratulations from countless people, but in his heart, he is more or less unacceptable. He actually has **** with women outside without telling his son. This father is not a thing.
He didn't reply to the letter, so the letters came more frequently, reaching the point of rushing, one letter a day.
Fang Jifan woke up early in the morning, Xiao Xiangxiang came to serve Fang Jifan while dressing, and said: "Master, early in the morning, another letter came."
"Oh." Fang Jifan only nodded: "Take it apart and have a look."
"Slaves don't dare to dismantle them at will. The master knows that he will scold him." Xiao Xiangxiang stuck out her tongue, and then said tactfully: "In fact, the master used to be... very bitter, and the young master was very naughty... The master has to worry about the young master, and there is no one in the family. There is no housewife at home, and it is all supported by Steward Yang...the master has no one to take care of him, and he often dances swords in the backyard in the middle of the night."
"Oh."
Xiao Xiangxiang said: "What's more, for a person like the master, three wives and four concubines are nothing. In our Daming, apart from the emperor, who doesn't have a few concubines at home, and there are others outside."
"Oh." Fang Jifan opened his arms and let Xiao Xiangxiang roll his sleeves for him.
Xiao Xiangxiang rolled up her sleeves, and said cautiously: "Slaves shouldn't say these things, in fact... there were often matchmakers in the former mansion, but the master refused. He said that the young master is ignorant and young. , marrying a bride...it's inevitable...so...the master drove them out, and then...fewer and fewer came to the door."
"What do you want to say?" Fang Jifan had already tied his waist with a belt, and his whole body looked slender.
Xiao Xiangxiang hurriedly shook her head: "No...it's nothing."
"Go and fetch the letter." Fang Jifan sat down.
Xiao Xiangxiang took the letter, Fang Jifan's heart softened, he had better write back a letter, so as not to worry his father.
Xiao Xiangxiang poured tea for Fang Jifan, while Fang Jifan leaned on the chair, watching at his leisure.
Subconsciously, he was holding the letter while he wanted to take a sip of tea, Xiao Xiangxiang hurriedly said: "Master, concentrate on reading, and this servant will feed you."
"Oh." Fang Jifan nodded.
Xiao Xiangxiang gently took the teacup and carefully placed it near Fang Jifan's mouth. Fang Jifan took a sip, then suddenly took a sip, and a mouthful of tea spewed out.
The letter was all wet.
Xiao Xiangxiang was also drenched all over.
Xiao Xiangxiang hurriedly took the handkerchief, wiped the tea off Fang Jifan's body, and said, "Young master, what's wrong with this...?"
"Grandpa!" Fang Jifan cursed: "Too much bullying, this is too much bullying! My name is Fang Jifan, and this child is actually named Fang Xiaofan. What does that mean? What does it mean? I don't know how to choose names randomly, I can Ask me, what is my name Fang Xiaofan, and what does it mean?"
Xiao Xiangxiang smiled and said: "I think, this is another young master, the young master."
Fang Jifan sighed: "It's a girl!"
"Ah, that's Miss, Fang Xiaofan. The name sounds... a bit strange, but after chewing it carefully, I think it sounds good. Ah, isn't there a Zhu Xiaorong, a Xiaorong, and a Xiaofan in the house."
Fang Jifan's anger has always come and gone quickly.
He felt that this father was purely insulting people's IQ. If this spread, he would be laughed to death.
He breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xiao Xiangxiang who was in a hurry to wipe his clothes, and said, "Wipe yourself, you are drenched all over."
"Oh."
Fang Jifan paced back and forth in the bedroom with his hands behind his back, and said, "No way, places like Guizhou are too remote, and the miasma is heavy, it's not a place to raise children. She was brought here to be raised in Beijing, where there is everything, so that she can grow into a lady, if she is thrown in Guizhou, she will become a wild girl in all likelihood."
"Master, what is an indescribable thing."
"Ah..." Fang Jifan froze for a moment.
It suddenly occurred to him that in his previous life, his temperament of being eccentric and upright, and out of vulgar tastes, was brought here unknowingly: "Grandma!"
Originally weaned off the milk, Fang Jifan said it straight away, but it was nothing, but Fang Jifan insisted on adding something indescribable, which made Xiao Xiangxiang blushed, and hurriedly lowered her head, she felt that her 36D **** were trembling a little Trembling, said timidly: "Master, you are good or bad."
Fang Jifan was confused: "Worse than my father?"
Still very angry.
Fortunately, Deng Jian was excited to come in at this time, and when he heard Xiao Xiangxiang say the word good or bad, he stopped, and obediently poked his head outside, seeing that nothing seemed to happen, he said impatiently: "Master, go and see, hurry up Let's go and see, the whale... the bones of the whale have been sent to Beijing, it's so scary, it's scary to death."
"Delivered?" Fang Jifan missed SF Express very much, because he found that the express delivery in this era, even if it used the fastest transportation in Ming Dynasty and took advantage of countless privileges, the express delivery speed was astonishingly slow.
Fang Jifan said: "Don't worry, I want to calm down."
At this time, he was not in a hurry.
What is the hurry?
No surprises!
He said: "Go get the pen and ink, I want to repair the book."
Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are here.
Spread out the white paper.
Fang Jifan began to think hard about the homecoming letter.
Fang Xiaofan's name can be changed, and he can't steal to this point if he is lazy. Also, I have to tell my father that I eat delicious food every day, and there is nothing wrong with it.
What else to say?
Let someone take Xiaofan to the capital, hey, after all, there is everything here.
After finishing the book, hand over the letter to Deng Jian.
Outside, Zhu Houzhao had already excitedly hit the horse: "Old Fang, Lao Fang...entered the palace, entered the palace, let's go to the palace to watch whales."
Fang Jifan came out from the middle gate and saw Zhu Houzhao's happy face: "Hurry up, many ministers have gone to see it."
Fang Jifan didn't hesitate, let someone lead the horse, and rode with Zhu Houzhao towards the Forbidden City.
In the Forbidden City, it was already a different scene.
The huge bones were carried by countless eunuchs, pro-military lieutenants and wrestlers, and they were placed on the ground.
Only the Forbidden City has enough space to display the fish bones of this whale.
A vertebra, fully 20 meters long, was carried by tens of hundreds of people panting.
Whales are mammals, not fish as people know them. What is scary is their jaws. The gap between the upper and lower jaws is enough to accommodate a truck.
Of course, there were no trucks in this day and age.
But... still enough to let everyone use their imaginations.
There are also those huge ribs, which are shocking.
The eunuchs and guards in the palace were too busy. Just moving this thing is a big project.
But... the palace lacks everything, but the only thing that is not lacking is people.
Emperor Hongzhi has arrived, and at the same time, there are many ministers on duty in the palace.
Looking at this giant, everyone subconsciously gasped.
...
Chapter 4 is delivered.
