Ming Dynasty: A hundred-year-old immortal cultivator, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father

"The people will be overwhelmed by years of war."

"Besides, as we just said, it's too big and too far away for the imperial court to control."

"Understand?"

"How long does this round trip take?"

What Zhu Yuanzhang said was very realistic. It was not that he did not want to expand the territory, but that he had already conquered it.

Difficult to manage and control!
"Old Zhu, you are just worried that the communication time between the two places is too long."

"Also, if a rebellion occurs, the court will have to send troops to suppress it, which used to take a long time."

"As long as you know!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly.

"What if we can shorten the communication time and increase the speed of troop transport?"

"Improve? How?"

"Are you a god? Can you instantly transport hundreds of thousands of troops to the Western Regions?"

"Or can you move hundreds of thousands of troops to a farther place?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily.

"I really can't move hundreds of thousands of troops to the Western Regions in one go. They are thousands or tens of thousands of miles away."

"But I can shorten this time!"

"Shorten? How?"

"How long does it usually take to get from Yingtian to the Western Regions?"

"If an army of several hundred thousand were to march, it would probably take at least half a year, right?"

"If it is shipped in paperback form, it will probably take at least several months."

"It takes a month to get from Yingtian to Beiping."

Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly.

"I can shorten the journey from Yingtian to the Western Region to two and a half hours."

"How many?"

"How many did you say?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Xiongying in astonishment.

"Two and a half hours!"

Zhu Yuanzhang reached out and touched Zhu Xiongying's forehead.

"Does this child have a fever? He's just talking nonsense!"

Zhu Xiongying: "..."

"Old Zhu, what I said is true."

"Really?"

"Why? Which old immortal taught you some magical skill?"

"Come! Take it out and let Grandpa Huang open his eyes."

"Old Zhu, I'll say it again, what I said is true."

"But! I need a tool, but I can't get that tool right now."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "You can't even take it out, what are you talking about?"

"Tools, what tools?"

"airplane!"

"Flying chicken?"

"A flying chicken?"

Zhu Xiongying: "..."

"Machine of machines!"

"Not chicken, duck, or goose!"

"It can be carried in the sky, flying in the sky like a bird."

"Can people still fly in the sky?"

"Boy, are you sure you don't have a fever?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said with some doubts.

"Why not?"

"I have a magical skill taught by an old immortal. Not only can I fly in the sky, but I can also swim in the sea."

"Tsk! Who can't swim?"

"swim?"

"I'm talking about the kind that can stay underwater for months and come out fine."

Zhu Yuanzhang was very confused.

"What's this?"

"Dive into the ocean for a few months and catch some fish?"

This cannot be blamed on Zhu Yuanzhang’s lack of vision. After all, most wars in this era took place on land.

"Old Zhu, when you and Chen Youliang fought in Poyang Lake, if there was someone who could dive under the water."

"If you punch a big hole in Chen Youliang's warship, what do you think will happen to them?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was obviously stunned.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not stupid, on the contrary he was extremely smart. Otherwise, how could he, as a beggar, establish the 300-year foundation of the Ming Dynasty?

"If someone could have dived underwater at that time, we wouldn't have to pay such a huge price."

"Then don't get married!"

"That thing is a killer weapon in water battles. It can defeat the opponent in a matter of minutes."

"You can imagine that it can stay in the water for several months, and it can be said to be elusive, with such a powerful weapon."

"Do you think there is anyone who can rival my Ming Dynasty in naval warfare?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang had to agree with Zhu Xiongying's point of view.

"You little bastard, sure!"

"As expected of our grandson, not bad!"

As he said this, he extended his hand towards Zhu Xiongying.

"what?"

Zhu Xiongying was very confused.

"What did you say?"

"That's a killer weapon that can dive into the water!"

"Old Zhu, what are you thinking about?"

"Do you think that thing will appear just as you say it does?"

"Do you know how long it would take the Ming Dynasty to build that thing?"

"After saying so much, it turns out you didn't have it?"

"What the hell..."

Zhu Xiongying became unhappy instantly.

"I can't continue the conversation!"

"gone!"

"Don't, don't, don't..."

"Don't go, grandson!"

Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly stopped Zhu Xiongying. He was itching to hear what he had just said.

If the Ming navy had that thing, it would be invincible.

"Why don't you leave?"

"I can't talk to you anymore."

"Don't, don't, don't..."

"Hehe...my eldest grandson!"

"Calm down, calm down!"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately put on an apologetic smile.

"Go on..."

"How do you build that thing?"

"Want to hear?"

"Want to hear it!"

"Want to know?"

"Want to know!"

"I will not say!"

"you……"

Zhu Yuanzhang's temper flared up instantly.

But he still forced himself to hold back, after all, it was related to the military strength of the Ming Dynasty.

Tolerate!
Hold back!

That's my grandson!
You have to hold it in no matter what!

Zhu Yuanzhang showed a kind smile.

"Haha...my eldest grandson!"

"Is Grandfather Huang good to you on weekdays?"

"You beat me every day, that's pretty good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled awkwardly.

"We, grandpa and grandson, don't need to worry about such details!"

"As long as you are willing to tell me, you can do whatever you want in the future. As long as you don't commit crimes, anything is fine."

"You can sleep as long as you want."

"Really?"

"Really! You are not kidding!"

"Then you write a document."

"No! You still don't trust your royal grandfather?"

"Just tell me whether you can stand or not!"

Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed his anger and said, "Establish! Let's establish!"

"Okay?"

Having said that, he walked to the dragon case and wrote the document.

Zhu Xiongying looked at the document in his hand and put it away with satisfaction.

"You little bastard, you can tell me now!"

"Since you want to know so much, I will tell you reluctantly!"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!"

Zhu Xiongying cleared his throat.

"First of all!"

"It is definitely impossible to build that thing under the current conditions of the Ming Dynasty."

“It requires a lot of industry to lay the foundation. It’s not something that can be created just by saying so.”

"First of all, the materials needed are very important. The steel it needs cannot be produced by the Ming Dynasty now."

"After all, the current smelting technology of the Ming Dynasty is not even up to the standard of AK47."

"Not to mention special steel!"

"Wait a minute, did you just say steel?"

"Yup!"

Zhu Xiongying nodded.

"Need steel as the main body?"

"If we use steel as the main body, won't it sink to the bottom of the sea?"

"How can we get up? Aren't all the people inside buried in the sea?"

"Little bastard, are you giving us a suicide weapon?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked a little ugly.

"Who said we can't come up?"

"If you can't get up, is it still a magical skill?" "It must be a magical skill if you can get up and down!"

"you sure?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him in confusion.

After all, everyone knows that ordinary metal products will sink if thrown into the water.

There is no chance of it coming up.

"Of course!"

"Old Zhu, do you have any misunderstandings about the divine skills?"

"Aren't we worried?"

"Just be more at ease!"

"Those steel materials can be used to build warships in the future!"

"Warship?"

"Using iron to build warships?"

Zhu Yuanzhang always felt that his worldview had been overturned.

After all, everyone knows that only wood has buoyancy and can be made into warships.

Now iron can also be used to make warships, which really subverted Zhu Yuanzhang's worldview.

But he soon came around, using steel to sink into the water and still float up.

That’s all!

"Is this also one of the magical skills?"

"Of course!"

"With these magical skills, won't my Ming Dynasty be able to unify the world?"

“Will the problems you mentioned still exist?”

Hearing this, the flame deep in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart began to burn.

"and……"

"And what?"

"And Fuso has gold and silver mines!"

"really?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard these two things, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The Ming Dynasty had just been established and there was a lot of work to be done, so it was time to spend money.

"With your intelligence, can I deceive you?"

"You're right, too!"

"Now that I think about it, do you still want me to kill Yao Guangxiao?"

"no, I'm fine!"

"He is our opportunity, he can't die."

"Not only can we not die, but we must live well."

Zhu Yuanzhang grinned.

That’s all free money!
"Let's send some Jinyiwei to protect him!"

"No need! The bad guys are already watching him."

"He is now in a tribe called Handori among the Jurchens, and he has been given an important position."

"Within a few years, the Handori tribe will become stronger and its ambitions will expand."

"Then we will find a reason to send troops to suppress the rebellion and completely pacify the Liaodong region."

"We can start to deal with Goguryeo!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded fully upon hearing this: "Well! Well done."

"Recently, Lee Seong-gye, a senior official of Goguryeo, has taken control of the court of Goguryeo."

"He estimated that the next step would be a change of dynasty."

"Once he seizes power, he will certainly come to our Ming Dynasty to pay tribute. By then, I'm afraid we will have no reason to deal with them."

Zhu Xiongying waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "I'm not afraid of that!"

"You want to deal with them, but are you afraid there is no way?"

"What can you do?"

"Old Zhu, why are you so anxious?"

"Can we not be anxious?"

"Da Ming is short of money now!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily.

"Hold on! Stay calm!"

"You can't eat hot tofu if you're anxious."

Zhu Yuanzhang was helpless. He understood this principle. If he acted too hastily, more trouble might arise.

Ruined the original plan!

"Brat, in your opinion, what does our Ming Dynasty need to do now?"

"Then we must develop industry, especially heavy industry. We must develop it."

"Only with heavy industry can the Ming Dynasty become stronger and stronger."

"Of course, although heavy industry is important, light industry cannot be left behind, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will have shortcomings."

"What the Ming Dynasty wants is comprehensive development, and to become a great country far superior to the Han and Tang dynasties in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded when he heard this: "Very good! Very good!"

"We didn't make a mistake!"

"You're so glad you think so, little bastard!"

"In the future, the Ming Dynasty will be stronger in your hands than in ours."

"We didn't make a mistake!"

"You will be a saintly ruler on par with the Qin Emperor and Han Emperor."

"Hey! Old Zhu, I'm sorry!"

"You really saw it wrong!"

"I don't want to be the emperor!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this.

"Little bastard, if you don't want to be the emperor, who will be the emperor?"

"In the future, we will pass the position to your father, and your father will pass it to you."

"You don't say you're inappropriate?"

"Do you want to piss me off?"

"Oh! I think Yunxun is a good choice."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang became even angrier.

"Can Yunxun compare with you?"

"You treat our Ming Dynasty ancestral precepts as shit, right?"

"Rules are dead, people are alive."

"You're still here, aren't you? Just change it a little bit."

"Bastard thing!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.

He immediately took off his boots and threw it over. Zhu Xiongying dodged the stinky salted fish thrown by Zhu Yuanzhang by turning sideways.

"You're old and weak, and you still want to hit me?"

"What did you say, little bastard?"

Zhu Yuanzhang became even more angry.

Seeing this, Zhu Xiongying took off his other boot and immediately ran away.

"Just stand there, you little bastard!"

Outside the imperial study!

Yang Shiqi and Li Jinglong were still waiting for Zhu Xiongying, and they were bored.

Zhu Xiongying ran out. The two were about to say hello, but found that Zhu Xiongying ignored them.

Keep running forward!

When the two were wondering, they saw Zhu Yuanzhang chasing after them barefoot.

He was still cursing!

"You little brat..."

"Stop right there!"

"Old Zhu, you are so old that you can't catch up with me."

"Hey?"

"Little bunny..."

Li Jinglong quickly pulled Yang Shiqi to kneel down, not daring to look up.

This is not what they can see!

Not long!
The grandfather and grandson walked away!

Two people together!
"Mr. Li, just now..."

Li Jinglong immediately covered Yang Shiqi's mouth.

"You don't want your life?"

"You don't want to live, but I still want to live!"

"Don't get me into trouble!"

Yang Shiqi nodded.

"I'm afraid your highness won't be able to deal with us for a while."

"let's go!"

Li Jinglong turned around and walked out of the palace with Yang Shiqi.

..............................

And on Zhu Xiongying's side!

At this time, Zhu Xiongying had already climbed up the tree, and Zhu Yuanzhang was pointing at Zhu Xiongying and cursing at him under the tree.

"Get down here, you little bastard!"

"Tsk! Can Old Zhu come up with something new?"

"Do you think I'll go down there?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious when he saw Zhu Xiongying's disdainful look.

"Well you little bastard."

"Just wait for us."

"Somebody come!"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang gave an order, the area was immediately filled with Jinyiwei.

"Little bastard, let's give you one more chance, can you come down?"

"Tsk! I'm not going down no matter what you say today."

Zhu Xiongying's face was full of disdain.

"it is good!"

"You're not coming down, are you?"

"Cut down the tree!"

"Yes!"

Two Jinyiwei drew out their embroidered spring swords and began to chop down the tree.

"stop!"

At this time, Zhu Biao's voice sounded.

Everyone turned around and saw Zhu Biao coming hurriedly, followed by Zhu Yunhuan.

"Father, what's going on?"

"Did Xiongying make you angry again?"

"Humph! This little bastard said he didn't want to be the emperor, and he even asked us to revise the imperial Ming ancestral precepts."
