Chapter 355 Everyone wants to eat meat

Lin Cunde chatted with the Queen Mother for a while, and had dinner at the Queen Mother's house at noon. In the afternoon, Lin Cunde simply didn't leave and stayed with the Queen Mother here. However, Zhu Qiyu had something else to do, so he left first!

And Lin Cunde had finished dinner with the Queen Mother before returning to the mansion!

As soon as they arrived at the mansion, Lin Cunyi came over and said to Lin Cunde: "Xiaowu, many things have been sent to the palace, including new tea from the south. One is from His Majesty, one is from the Empress Dowager, and one is from the Queen Mother. It’s a gift from the Queen!”

"Well, put it away and take out the tea. By the way, second brother, I will be going to Luanzhou on errands in a while. I estimate that I will spend most of my time there in the next few years. Second brother, you can do whatever you want. I'm going to do two things. One is to build me a mansion there. It doesn't need to be too big. The second is to go there. I will also start some profitable business. Then you can go there. manage!

My second brother is quite talented in business. I can rest assured that you can go over there and do things! Lin Cunde said to Lin Cunyi as he walked.

"Okay, then the capital city needs to find someone to go out and do things!" Lin Cunyi nodded without hesitation!

Lin Cunde shook his head and said: "No, let my cousin take care of some small things. You can take care of the big things when you come back. It's only a day's ride away! Leave the renting matters to your cousin, and visit the senior officials. Or You go, my cousin still has to study, there are too many things to do, and he can’t even handle it!”

"Okay!" Lin Cunyi nodded and said.

"After the mansion is built, the second sister-in-law and the others will also go over, and the whole family will be together! Just spend as much as you should on the mansion, and don't save money for me. There is too much money in the warehouse, which is not a good thing. Spend it before you feel relieved!" Lin Cunde continued to explain to Lin Cunyi.

"Okay!" Lin Cunyi nodded and said, still a little confused. He didn't know how much money Lin Cuunde still had in his warehouse!

The bank and other warehouses are not together, and the bank can only be managed by Qiu Shuang!

Therefore, he didn't know that Lin Cunde still had almost half a million taels of silver in his bank account!

Lin Cunde had always wanted to spend this money. He originally wanted to build a school. However, Lin Cunde found that he was too busy. He had to do things and teach students. He had no skills to do anything. When he could only do things, he found a few We should train talented apprentices first and then build a school when the time comes, right?

If boats can really be built, then a school like this is really needed!

When the time comes, I will recruit children from poor families and give them one more path and one more opportunity!

And now that there are more people to work on, people are now willing to work outside. The shipyard needs a lot of workers!

In the next few days, Lin Cunde also stayed at home behind closed doors and began to design small engines and small warships.

This is much less difficult and can produce results quickly!

Now let alone a 1,200-ton warship, even a 120-ton warship will have a huge advantage in a naval battle. Therefore, things need to be done step by step. The purpose must be set, but it needs to be done slowly. !

At this moment, the court had heard the news that all the prefects and county magistrates in Luanzhou had been replaced, and all of them were transferred from the south, mainly from the four southern provinces!

Many ministers didn't know what was going on, but someone discovered that the Ministry of Internal Affairs had sent people to send a large amount of silver and grain there, and the Ministry of Industry was already gathering craftsmen. Lin Cunde had no time to go see Xie Yonghe!

When Zhu Qiyu learned that Lin Cunde was still busy in the study, he knew that Lin Cunde was doing other things, but some things needed to be prepared in advance!

Therefore, Zhu Qiyu asked Xie Yonghe to prepare a list of all craftsmen, especially those related to ironmaking, blacksmiths, carpenters, and craftsmen who can build ships. Xie Yonghe needs to provide those lists as soon as possible!

Xie Yonghe didn't know what Zhu Qiyu wanted to do. To be precise, he didn't know what Lin Cunde wanted to do!

Everyone knows that Lin Cunde has been in seclusion for more than two months. He brought a box to the palace a few days ago, and then started to retreat again without seeing anyone!

A few days later, Zhu Qiyu issued an imperial decree. The fifth military camp of the third battalion of the capital mobilized 20,000 people, the 3,000 battalion mobilized 5,000 people, and the Shenji battalion mobilized 5,000 people to garrison, barracks and training ground in Luanzhou. , everything must be established as soon as possible!

With this imperial edict, everyone knew that Lin Cunde was going to do a big thing, but why it was in Luanzhou, no one could imagine it, and only Wang Ying could guess a little. Therefore, in the past few days, the nobles and generals came to Wang Ying's house every day. he!

I hope I can get some news from him. Only Wang Ying goes to Lin Cunde's house. He can go in at any time without announcing it!

Therefore, they knew that Wang Ying must know something!

"Wang Ying, are you bored now? Shouming must be doing something big, you can't hide it from us?" Guo Sheng stared at Wang Ying and said helplessly.

They forced Wang Ying to drink for several days, but Wang Ying refused to drink. Wang Ying knew that once he drank, he would not be able to hide things, and he would tell anyone anything he asked! "Go and ask, can Shouming keep it from you? Who doesn't know that he respects him the most!" Shi Heng also looked at Wang Ying anxiously and said.

"Every time I go, he is writing something at his desk. I am embarrassed to disturb him. I think, he must be doing something big. Wait a minute. I am not in a hurry. Why are you in a hurry?" Wang Ying said with a smile. He said to them, not wanting to tell the truth to them!

Wang Ying knew something. On the third day of the Lunar New Year, he heard the discussion between Lin Cunde and Zhu Qiyu. Based on the current trends in Luanzhou, he knew that Lin Cunde was going to build a ship and was preparing to attack the Japanese country!

But he can't say it. If he talks about it, those people will go to Lin Cunde and disturb Lin Cunde's work!

"Wang Ying, go now, we will wait for you at your home! You can't do this, you can't refuse!" Guo Sheng said to Wang Ying.

"Hey!" Wang Ying chuckled and didn't move!

"You are wrong, you don't treat your old brother as a brother!" Gu Jing, the Marquis of Taining, also pointed at Wang Ying and said.

Wang Ying still smiled and said: "Hey, why are you so anxious? When it's time for you to know, Shouming can still hide it from you. Okay, I will also reveal it to you. Shouming is doing something big, a very big thing." , however, it is estimated to take many years, so why should everyone be anxious?"

"How many years does it take for a big thing? What does it take several years? He is a military general, so prepare for war!" Guo Sheng stared at Wang Ying and continued to question.

"Well, it will take several years to prepare!" Wang Ying nodded.

When those people heard this, they all looked at each other. They all saw each other's shock. What kind of battle does it take to prepare for it for how many years?

When did the Ming Dynasty have such powerful enemies around it?

Now that Waladu has been defeated by them, how can there be any strong enemies?

"Okay, don't ask. If you ask again, I can't say anything. I know something, but His Majesty hasn't announced it. Do I dare to announce it?" Wang Ying said in resignation. The meaning is very clear. If you have the ability, you can go. Ask your Majesty!

"Okay, let's wait. I'm looking forward to it, no, I'm looking forward to it. Anyway, when Cunde goes to fight, I'm going to go!" Guo Sheng said to Wang Ying. He also wanted to go further, Lin Cunde, Wang Ying , Xu Xianyong and the others were able to become marquis and uncle by virtue of their white bodies, so why couldn't they go one step further?

If you want to go further, you need to rely on military exploits. This military exploit still needs to be very large, and it can only destroy an enemy country!

Guo Sheng actually vaguely guessed that Lin Cunde was probably going to take action against the Japanese country. If he could completely kill the Japanese country, his contribution would be enough to make him a Duke!

I have no objection to Lin Cunde being granted the title of Duke, but I have to take him with him because he also wants to eat meat!

In Lin Cunde's house, Lin Cunyi saw that Lin Cunde had been sitting there for more than an hour, so he opened the door and went in, saying: "Xiao Wu, go out and do some activities, go quickly!"

"Well, wait a minute!" Lin Cunde said without raising his head. Now Lin Cunde is designing a small boat. The so-called small boat is also eight feet long and more than two feet wide, and can be equipped with eight cannons!

Lin Cunyi sat on Lin Cunde's tea table and drank tea. He waited for Lin Cunde for almost a quarter of an hour before Lin Cunde got up!

Lin Cunyi also stood up and said: "You can't sit here all the time, you have to move!"

"Yeah!" Lin Cunde nodded and went out with his hands behind his back!

Lin Cunyi knew that Lin Cuunde was thinking about something in his head, but he didn't care about what was outside!

When Lin Cunde went out, Lin Cunyi followed him. At the same time, he closed the door and ordered the maids in the house and Lin Cunzhi to guard the door of the study. No one was allowed in!

Lin Cunde was walking inside the mansion with his hands behind his back. The maids were carrying their children. Those children originally liked Lin Cunde very much, but at this time, all the maids would hug the maids away and not allow them to disturb Lin Cunde!

Lin Cunde was walking along the path of the mansion, with his hands behind his back. Lin Cunzhen followed with a few guards, followed by several maids and servants, holding things that Lin Cunde might need!

Soon, Lin Cunde arrived at the pavilion in the back garden of the mansion. The sun was shining brightly today. Lin Cunde couldn't help but sit down, waved behind him and said, "Put the tea set on!"

The servants and maids all came over and quickly set up the stove. The stove was immediately lit, and a warm kettle was also placed on the stove, so that the water in the stove could be boiled quickly and Lin Cunde could make tea!

Lin Cunde sat there thinking about his plan, thinking about what else he hadn't considered!

What are the technical difficulties, which technologies can be solved by craftsmen?

I know the chemical reaction of steel, but the actual operation is still difficult. Many testing equipment are not available, and even heavier steel blocks are difficult to lift and process!

Therefore, Lin Cunde designed many labor-saving tools!

These tools also need to be made by blacksmiths!

During this period of time, Lin Cunde drew a lot of drawings. These drawings will all be realized by those craftsmen!
