Chapter 188 A road with no future in sight!

"Just such a box? Put the eggs in it, and then the chicks can hatch?"

Zhu Yuanzhang watched the guards move the incubator, his face was full of curiosity for a moment.

To hatch chickens, all you need to do is to put the chickens in the alley.

If it wasn't for Chu Ze's presidency, Zhu Yuanzhang might have thought that someone was going to play him like a monkey.

And looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who turned around with curiosity, Chu Ze gestured to the old Mr. Nong beside him.

"Mr., you are the person in charge of this envy. Come and explain the principle of this incubator to His Majesty."

"Ah! Oh... Your Majesty, let me tell you about the function and principle of this incubator. In this box, we installed some water channels and a thermometer that the dean asked us to make."

"This thermometer is the key to the incubator."

"We first find the hen to incubate the eggs, and then put multiple thermometers under the hen's belly, and incubate with the eggs for a period of time."

"After determining the temperature required for the eggs to hatch, we will adjust the temperature in the incubator according to this temperature."

"Those water channels are used to pour hot water to heat up the incubator. After putting the eggs in, we only need to adjust the temperature in the box according to the thermometer, and then turn the eggs over from time to time."

"After enough time, most of the eggs can be hatched."

While listening to the old farmer's narration, Zhu Yuanzhang gently pushed aside the straw used for heat preservation in the incubator.

Sure enough, around the box, I saw the water channel used to increase the temperature.

But after checking it, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly returned the straws to their original positions.

He looked cautious in his movements, as if he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would break the magical incubator in front of him.

"This thing is of extraordinary significance! Chu Ze, this old Mr. Nong must reward him heavily."

"This box will stay with us. Let's try it too, and hatch a batch of chickens by ourselves. Hey, it happens that a batch of chickens can be raised in this back garden. After that, we will raise them with our own hands. Come entertain the ministers!"

Everyone is curious about new things.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, who has become the emperor, is the same.

This incubator is the product of Chu Ze's testing ground anyway, so it must not be difficult for them to make a second one.

It's not too much to keep one for yourself, to keep one for yourself, right?
"Your Majesty, please remember that the thermometer in this incubator only records the temperature used to incubate chickens. The incubation temperature of each type of egg is different. Don't make a mistake."

Chu Ze naturally saw through Zhu Yuanzhang's little thought.

So he didn't say much, he just told him the precautions a of the incubator.

Then he signaled the old farmer to wait aside.

And Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Ze who had no intention of leaving, and he roughly guessed it.

This guy probably has something else to say.

"If you have something to say, just say it directly. You don't have to wait for us to ask you. You are not a person who abides by the rules. There is no need to fix these flowers for us."

"Hey, Your Majesty, you still understand me! Then what, isn't he recuperating recently? You already know the efficacy of my incubator."

"After the technology is researched, the most important thing is to promote and apply it in a timely manner. That's what I mean."

"The imperial court will come forward to build a poultry nursery. Isn't there an incubator now? We will incubate a large number of poultry seedlings, and then deliver these poultry seedlings to the people at a guaranteed price."

"Your Majesty, what do you think of this matter? We invested some money in the early stage. For poultry seedlings, it is just the lowest guaranteed price, as long as we can maintain the operation of our nursery."

"Then the people got a large number of poultry seedlings at a low price. These chickens, ducks and geese can also be fed with forage. After the people have more of these poultry, it can be regarded as bringing a little more income to the family."

"At the same time, the excess poultry they raise can also be used for sale."

"This will not only increase the meat market, but also increase the income of the common people. It is a good thing for the whole common people."

"And poultry manure can also be piled up as fertilizer, and they can also help clean up a certain amount of pests."

"Multiple actions!"

As if worried that Zhu Yuanzhang would disagree with his proposal, Chu Ze patiently explained his thoughts to Old Zhu.

However, when Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Ze who was speaking at length, his eyes couldn't help showing a bit of playfulness.

After Chu Ze finished speaking, Lao Zhu chuckled lightly.

"Why? What you can think of, can't we think of it?"

"Uh, your majesty was joking. I raised my mouth, mainly to express my thoughts, so that your majesty can refer to it and see if there is anything wrong with what I said."

"What? Have you learned how to flatter?"

"If you don't learn, you can't do it! Now that Biao and Ganniang are not here, I'm afraid you will suddenly beat me up."

"."

Seeing Chu Ze's way of treating a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hands dismissively, making a gesture of repelling him.

"Fuck off, we are upset when we see you. This matter is not only done on Jinling's side. On Lao Wu's side, you also let him be arrested."

"These poultry, no matter how big or small they are, are not easy to transport. The best way is to set up such a point in every city."

"Eggs used for incubation in the initial stage can be obtained locally. As long as there is the first batch, each nursery will raise some breeding chickens and ducks."

"Let's make a rule later, whoever dares to eat chickens and ducks from the nursery, we will directly punish him."

"."

The phrase "Zhu Jiu Clan" is such an understatement.

The corner of Chu Ze's mouth twitched slightly when he heard it.

Emperor Honghu is Emperor Hongwu after all!

The Nine Clans or something, if they disagree, they will be killed
Nine Tribes Divorce..
"Your Majesty, apart from this matter, there is one more thing I would like to apply to you."

After finishing the business, Chu Ze couldn't help but think of the promise he had made to the employees at the testing ground.

Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned after seeing Chu Ze's hesitant to speak.

Every time this guy puts on this posture, nothing good seems to happen!

Do you want to interrupt him directly and let him go straight away?

"Boy, let's tell you first. If you suddenly tell us that someone is going to die again, we will really beat you up first! We advise you to take care of yourself."

After Chu Ze heard Lao Zhu's words, he couldn't help touching the tip of his nose in embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, almost all the damn things have been said. The rest of the things that have not been said, it doesn't matter if they die. It doesn't matter."

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about! If you don't die, you don't matter, right?"

"Uh, let's skip that topic for now."

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang getting angry again, Chu Ze let out a haha ​​and quickly brought the topic back on track.

"Your Majesty, in my testing ground, except for the guilty person, most of the others are craftsmen, farmers, or some ordinary people. Although these people come from humble backgrounds, many of them can't even write their own names. "

"But Your Majesty, during this period of time, the contributions made by those employees in the testing ground are obvious to all!"

"I personally have the ability to stand on the shoulders of giants, but they are the breakthroughs they have found through repeated failures."

"Your Majesty, what I mean is, should you give them some rewards? The rewards I'm talking about are not wealth rewards. Of course, I didn't say no. My main point is whether Your Majesty can go in person and reward them. some time?"

"Since the establishment of the test site, the method of forging steel has been optimized twice, and the flintlock guns currently in production have been produced, the carriage has been improved, the indigenous method of fertilizer has been produced, and stamping equipment has been built."

"This credit, although it may seem small, is definitely better than expanding the territory!"

"Your Majesty, what I mean is, give these people who have made great contributions to Ming the honor they deserve!"

"They are definitely well-deserved heroes and pioneers!"

Chu Ze is extremely cynical most of the time.

He has no sense of fear of power, so he is more casual.

But when he said this, his voice was extremely serious.

In this matter, he is making a serious request to Zhu Yuanzhang.

As he himself said, he is standing on the shoulders of giants, and those people in the experimental field are the future giants.

They deserve this honor.

Of course, the most important thing is that if these inventors can be personally rewarded and awarded by His Majesty the Emperor.

In the future, who would say that what they play is just some strange tricks?

For this era, it is impossible to easily shake the status of scholars.

After all, you personally, never want to be an enemy of the world.

But it is not impossible to open up a new path from it.

From the beginning to the end, Chu Ze never felt that he could promote the development of the entire technological process by himself.

This seemed impossible to him.

And the best he can do is to uncover the mystery of science and let more people try to pursue and pursue the truth of science.

As long as it can bring about this trend, even if it is only one-thousandth, it is enough to spark a new city.

And whether this trend can be brought up, the most important thing is whether the technology can get the attention and appreciation of those in power!
"Credit please?"

Seeing Chu Ze with a serious face, Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes slightly.

Sitting on the same spot, he stretched out his hand to gently support his chin, and thought about what Chu Ze said very seriously.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, it is a very simple matter to go to reward these people in person.

But how to award this award?
Just like the incubator in front of you, this thing can hatch a huge number of poultry young.

Why are poultry valuable?

In addition to the time required to raise the poultry, there is also the fact that these poultry are too troublesome to hatch.

A restaurant, if the business is good, may eat dozens or even hundreds of chickens and ducks a day.

And a family hatches three or two times a year, at most twenty or thirty, and eats a little for themselves.

What is left?
As long as there is an incubator that can hatch in large quantities, chickens and ducks can be fed in large quantities at one time.

Especially in the common people's homes, the main thing is to be more diligent and feed more grass every day.

There was no problem at all with feeding more than [-] chickens and ducks at that time.

It can even be put in the ground to get rid of insects at ordinary times.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't take a long-term view in some decisions, he can still see clearly about the incubator. This is a great thing that can benefit the world.

Not to mention steelmaking, flintlock guns and the like.

These things directly strengthened the combat effectiveness of the Ming army.

In terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, just grabbing any of these meritorious deeds is enough to be conferred a knighthood!

However, these people are neither scholars nor generals.
If you rashly confer titles, those ministers will definitely not accept
But if it is done hastily, will it be rooted out in the future?
At the same time, it is likely to appear that the royal family is too stingy.
I'm afraid this matter needs to be carefully considered.

"This matter...let me think about it temporarily, don't worry, we will give you an answer after thinking about it."

Facing Chu Ze's expectant eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't give him an answer immediately.

After all, this matter can be big or small.

Although it seems to be just a commendation, the meaning behind it is really too complicated.

He has to think it through.

"Okay, then think about it, Your Majesty, then I'll be fine here. I'll go first?"

"Go ahead. You just need to do something about the nursery."

"Okay, then, Your Majesty, I will go first."

He didn't get a positive answer from Zhu Yuanzhang. To be honest, Chu Ze was still a little disappointed.

But soon, he also slowed down.

What's the point if it's so easy to do?
Of course, as for what he promised the proving ground employees
At the end of the month, His Majesty personally rewarded them with honors, and Chu Ze was not in a hurry at all.

If Lao Zhu still doesn't think it through, then Chu Ze can ask Zhu Biao to do a favor and go through the motions.

Anyway, for the employees of the testing ground, it doesn't matter whether it's the emperor or the prince.

These were supposed to be big figures that they shouldn't have seen in their lives.

It doesn't make much difference whether the emperor goes or not.

But after Chu Ze left with him, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and pondered for a while, but he still couldn't make up his mind.

Because of Chu Ze's arrival, he brought a third way besides civil and martial arts.

Moreover, this road seems to be the right track for the future.

However, Lao Zhu has no idea how to treat this unknown road ahead.

After all, he had never seen the future in Chu Ze's eyes.

"Forget it, let's go find a girl!"
