Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

But Wu Chunfu gritted his teeth and said firmly: "It's only a mere 100,000 taels of silver. I can still come up with it. Your Majesty, please don't worry about it."

Zhu Youxiao:...........

Damn, this guy is just like Guo Yunhou, they have learned a lot and it is hard to fool him...

My idea of ​​leaving some patents for my descendants to make some money has been shattered, which makes me feel very sad!

"Okay, if you don't want to vote, then don't vote. It's getting late, let's go back!"

"Don't forget to reward the craftsman who steamed out the gasoline!"

"If I find out you dare to deduct money, I will break your legs!"

After saying this in a tone full of envy and jealousy, he turned and walked towards the back hall.

Only Wu Chunfu and Li Xin were left in the hall, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Wu Chunfu was stunned by Zhu Youxiao's attitude.

Li Xin felt like she was in a dream, still recalling what Zhu Youxiao had just said.

His Majesty said...

He wants to invest 100,000 taels?

OMG!

That much silver could be piled up into a mountain, right?

Is this idea of ​​mine really so valuable?

He did not question Zhu Youxiao's intention.

All craftsmen knew that since the emperor returned from Emperor Hongwu, his vision had been far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

What the emperor produces must be top quality!

The fact that there are mortars and reason in front and Chengying and Longtong in the back is enough to explain this problem.

What Li Xin doubted was whether she could live up to this trust!

He is a little weak...

Seeing him staring in the direction where Zhu Youxiao left, Wu Chunfu reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"Why, do you think I am reluctant to give you one hundred thousand taels?"

Li Xin was in a daze, and was almost scared to death by the slap on his face.

"No, no, no, I just..."

"Not so much! Hurry up and select people tomorrow. You can choose from all the vacant sheds! By the way, you are also involved in the gasoline issue, right? Go back and find your foreman and tell him what I want. Each of you will be rewarded with 200 taels of silver!"

After getting the project out of Zhu Youxiao's mouth, Wu Chunfu felt both proud and scared. After saying this, he pulled Li Xinchao outside.

When the night wind blew on his body, he realized that his back was wet with sweat without him knowing when..........

After leaving the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Zhu Youxiao completely forgot about the matter of flipping the cards.

He was really excited that these craftsmen were able to make gasoline, and he had to find someone he liked to share it with.

The lights in Kunning Palace had been turned off long ago. Upon learning that the emperor was coming, the palace maids on duty hurriedly lit them again.

Zhang Yan heard the noise and came out from the inner room wearing her clothes.

After seeing Zhu Youxiao, he asked with some confusion.

"Your Majesty, did you flip the card and it turned out to be my concubine?"

Zhu Youxiao smiled and waved his hands: "No, I was just about to turn it over when Wu Chunfu interrupted me and reported a happy event."

"I was so excited that I forgot about that matter!"

"Don't worry, it will be the same tomorrow."

Zhang Yan frowned when she heard this: "Your Majesty, did you just promise me a few days ago that you would let all the sisters share the benefits equally?"

Zhu Youxiao glanced at her chest uncontrollably: "Do you really want to push me out?"

Zhang Yan had already taken off her clothes and gone to bed. At this moment, she was only wearing a robe on the outside and a gauze nightgown underneath.

After hearing what Zhu Youxiao said and looking at his eyes, Zhang Yan blushed, stretched out her arms, and winked at the palace maid next to her.

Seeing this, the palace maid walked forward timidly and helped her put on the robe.

Zhang Yan said loudly until she wrapped herself up tightly.

"I wish Your Majesty could stay in Kunning Palace every day, but right now, expanding the royal family is the top priority!"

"In addition to me in the harem, Your Majesty, have you forgotten that you have eight concubines and two noble ladies?"

"Except for sister Qingyu who just gave birth to Yan'er, there are still nine sisters whose bellies are empty."

"So, Your Majesty, please don't break the rules..."

Zhu Youxiao was embarrassed!

He had never met those two noble men until now...

Among the concubines, he had only met Concubine Hui and Concubine Liang...

Too busy, damn!

Facing Zhang Yan, he felt inexplicably guilty.

It seems that she is the one who really cares about the Zhu family...

And I am just messing around...

He shook his head helplessly and turned to look at Youtong.

"Go get some paper and pen and write a few notes instead of bamboo cards!"

After Youtong ran off to do something, he smiled and put his arms around Zhang Yan's slender waist.

"Well, are you satisfied now?"

Zhang Yan kissed him on the cheek and said, "I know your majesty's feelings, but I hope your majesty can understand my difficulties."

The status of the queen is noble, but the concubines in the harem have to rely on her for management.

She knew one thing very well.

That is, if a man wants to get something done, the most important thing is that there must not be a fire in the backyard.

Otherwise, even if you have great abilities, you can only use 30% of them.

They are all a group of women who are not related by blood, so intrigue is inevitable.

But this kind of thing cannot be suppressed solely by brute force, otherwise it might cause a big mess one day.

Only by combining firmness and flexibility can the harem be peaceful.

At least, in front of Zhu Youxiao, it was peaceful.

Although Zhu Youxiao did not see it with his own eyes, he had watched some palace dramas in his previous life.

Besides, everyone has selfish desires.

Fortunately, this is the Ming Dynasty. If it were in later times, even if there were no legal constraints, who would dare to keep more than a dozen wives together?

As long as people's brains don't turn into dog brains, the world will be peaceful...

Feeling the warmth on his face, Zhu Youxiao was instantly happy.

"I understand, I understand. I understand everything. It's all thanks to you that I can handle those trivial matters. Otherwise, I don't know how to deal with them."

Then, Youtong brought the written note.

Excluding Qingyu, whose body had not yet recovered, and Concubine Hu and Concubine Cheng, who were unable to sleep with the emperor due to their menstrual period, there were exactly eight photos.

Zhang Yan smiled and pointed at the notes and said, "Your Majesty, please."

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his big hand and muttered something.

"Heaven and earth, a bunch of bald donkeys chanting nonsense..."

"middle!"

After saying that, he took out one and stuffed it into Zhang Yan's hand.

"Come, let my precious pearl see for me who is so lucky tonight to be favored by the real dragon!"

Chapter 542 Do You Know Too Much?

Zhang Yan picked up the note and slowly opened it.

The couple, four eyes, all stared closely.

It’s not a big deal, but it seems more exciting than the lottery draw.

A moment later, when Zhu Youxiao saw the word "Queen" written on the note, he burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, it's God's will. Let's see if you have any reason to let me go this time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up Zhang Yan by the waist and walked towards the inner room.

Yutong chuckled, grabbed the remaining notes and stuffed them all into his mouth in front of the other palace maids in the hall.

While chewing, he walked out of the hall and closed the door.

There were four palace maids left in the palace, but they could not leave.

After leaving two people on duty outside, the other two entered the inner room holding handkerchiefs and paper and pen respectively.

However, after entering, they did not dare to raise their heads.

The man holding the handkerchief looked down at his toes.

The man holding paper and pen stood aside, listening attentively to the conversation between Zhu Youxiao and Zhang Yan.

This is the rule. After experiencing the initial embarrassment, Zhu Youxiao has long been accustomed to it.

After all, people don’t just watch...

At the critical moment, she can also help the man...

Well, I can be a substitute too!

Ignoring the existence of the two of them, Zhu Youxiao threw Zhang Yan on the bed and spoke while taking off his clothes.

"I am very happy today. Queen, do you know what the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works have come up with?"

Zhang Yan subconsciously asked back: "What?"

"Gasoline! It's made from kerosene!"

"What can be done?"

"Hey, that's a good thing. Although the gasoline engine is a little troublesome to manufacture, as long as they can make gasoline, diesel will not be far away. Diesel engines are much more convenient than fire bulls!"

Zhu Youxiao showed off what little he had in his head, without any intention of hiding it in front of Zhang Yan.

Anyway, Lord Hongwu will take the blame for everything, so what is there to be afraid of?

Zhang Yan was intrigued by him and asked again.

"Diesel chicken? What is that? I have heard of salt-baked chicken and oil-baked duck, but what kind of chicken is this diesel chicken? How can it be compared to a fire bull?"

"Hahahaha, a diesel engine is not a chicken, it's a machine like a fire bull!"

Zhu Youxiao stripped himself down to his underpants, lifted the quilt and crawled in.

"Speaking of which, this diesel engine has many similarities with a fire bull, but it does not require a boiler."

Facing Zhang Yan's focused gaze, he recalled his childhood scenes.

The three-wheeled motorcycle was a very common thing in the countryside when he was a teenager.

When starting, hold the handle and crank it a few times.

The flywheel will rotate with the crankshaft, closing the exhaust valve and opening the intake valve.

The piston moves downward from the top dead center, reducing the pressure in the cylinder and thus inhaling air.

When the piston reaches the bottom dead center, it turns upward and compresses the air in the cylinder.
