Da Ming started to ascend the throne

After Zhu Youjian got a generous reward, he asked everyone else to quit, leaving Ah Qing alone, and immediately communicated with the system:

"System, summon Yue Fei and Zhao Shizhen."

"Ding, congratulations to the host, Yue Fei and Zhao Shizhen successfully summoned."

Following the sound of the system, two white lights flashed, and Yue Fei and Zhao Shizhen appeared in the imperial study room. After seeing Zhu Youjian, the two hurried forward to salute:

"Yue Fei, see my lord."

"Zhao Shizhen sees the lord."

Zhu Youjian hastily stretched out his hand to help him:

"Haha... the two lovers are free of courtesy, just sit down."

Yue Fei

Zi Pengju, born in Xiaotili, Yonghe Township, Tangyin County, Xiangzhou, Song Dynasty, now Chenggang Village, Tangyin County, Anyang City, Henan Province, a famous military strategist, strategist, and national hero in Chinese history, ranking first among the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Yue Fei was the most outstanding commander in the Southern Song Dynasty. He attached great importance to the people's anti-gold forces and created the strategy of "connecting Heshuo".

Yue Fei's literary talent is also rare among generals. His immortal poem Man Jianghong is a famous patriotic poem passed down through the ages.

Zhao Shizhen

Famous firearms expert in the late Ming Dynasty

He devoted his whole life to the research of firearms, and even developed Lianju before his death.

At most, it can fire more than a dozen beads in a row, which is the predecessor of the submachine gun and machine gun. Unfortunately, it was not taken seriously, and eventually died in the womb.

The firearms he invented and improved were later "spread to all sides" by the Ming Dynasty to "defend the border and control captives"

Although Zhao Shizhen has made great contributions to the research and development of Chinese firearms.

But after the change of dynasty, because the Qing army was good at riding and shooting, it despised firearms. As a result, the firearm technology of the entire Qing Dynasty did not get much development.

200 years later, the gap between China and the West in the field of firearms is getting bigger and bigger. There are even absurd stories that thousands of British soldiers can sweep China with muskets.

If Zhao Shizhen was still alive, he would probably die of anger directly.

Seeing Yue Fei, Zhu Youjian thought of the story that he was killed on unfounded charges because he insisted on resisting gold.

The current Dongyao is also a descendant of the Kingdom of Jin. In this life, Zhu Youjian will let Yue Fei realize his lifelong long-cherished wish, and will not let this famous hero suffer a little grievance.

Yue Fei is good at training soldiers, and his Yue Family Army is also world-renowned. Now that the Ming army is corrupt and the morale of the army is weak, it is very necessary for such a famous person to train them.

For this famous national hero, Zhu Youjian has great respect for him:

"General Yue, I want you to train a group of capable troops for my Ming Dynasty. I don't know what the general wants."

Yue Fei hurriedly got up and clasped his fists together:

"Yue Fei is the emperor's retainer. As long as the emperor needs it, Yue Fei will definitely go through fire and water. Please send the emperor's decree."

What Yue Fei said was not wrong. As the historical figures summoned by the system, they all served the host.

Including Qi Jiguang, Li Cunxiao and others, as well as Jin Yiwei, are all the emperor's retainers, and they are only loyal to the host.

"Well, Yuhuatian, you bring the imperial decree and send Yue Fei to Zuo Liangyu's army, ask Huang Degong to be the deputy commander to assist Yue Fei, and take Zuo Liangyu directly back to the capital."

Chapter 104 Establishing a Firearms Research and Development Factory

After Yu Huatian led the five hundred Jinyiwei and Yue Fei away, Zhu Youjian looked at Zhao Shizhen: "Zhao Shizhen, you are a rare talent in my Ming Dynasty. It's a pity that I didn't meet Bole. Today I will be your Bole."

Zhao Shizhen, who had never been reused in his life, became excited when he heard what the emperor said. It seemed that the emperor wanted to reuse him, so he knelt down immediately:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Zhao Shizhen must be devastated for Daming, even if he exhausts his last ounce of strength, he will never disappoint His Majesty and Daming."

Zhao Shizhen is a god-level craftsman. What do craftsmen care about most?

What they care most about is not the official position, but to be reused and trusted by their superiors.

Only when the higher-ups fully trust them, can they have the opportunity to fully display their talents.

Zhu Youjian stretched out his hand to support Zhao Shizhen, and said with full expectation:

"I will appoint you as the minister of the Ministry of Industry. You must give full play to your talents. As long as you can make good firearms, you will be given money and people.

Now that you are the minister of the Ministry of Industry, you have the right to choose what kind of people you use. I don't care about the previous work, what I want is the result. "

Grateful, only these few words can describe Zhao Shizhen's mood at this time. In his previous life, he exhausted his family property to study firearms, and was treated coldly by others.

As a result, after arriving at Zhu Youjian's place, not only did the emperor personally meet him, but he also strongly supported him. He was given the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry when he came up, and he was a senior official in the court.

Zhao Shizhen prostrated on the ground excitedly, and kowtowed again and again:

"Zhao Shizhen thanked the Lord Long En. Your Majesty, just wait and see. I will never let you down. If you can't make a good firearm, Zhao Shizhen commits suicide and apologizes."

As a time traveler, Zhu Youjian certainly knew his ability, and he helped up the big firearms engineer with a slight smile:

"Okay, I believe you. I will report to the Ministry of Industry tomorrow. For the time being, I will allocate 100 million taels of silver to you for the construction of factories and research and development funds. If you encounter any problems or have any difficulties, come to me directly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty Long En."

In this way, Zhu Youjian not only had everyone who developed firearms, but also established a Daming firearms development and manufacturing factory by the way. Zhu Youjian also gave Zhao Shizhen the firearms research and development skill book and smelting skill book rewarded by the system.

Although they are all low-level skill books, they were considered very advanced in the Ming Dynasty.

He gave Zhao Shizhen enough space, power, and freedom. As long as he has the ability, Zhu Youjian will help him even if he breaks the sky.

After Zhao Shizhen resigned, Zhu Youjian picked up another manuscript, which he drafted himself, mainly related to land distribution and commercial trade issues.

Because of war, plague, famine and other reasons, the population of Ming Dynasty has shrunk greatly. It stands to reason that there will be a lot of land vacant, and people should be allocated a lot of fields.

However, the actual situation is very different from what people expected. Almost all the good land is occupied by wealthy businessmen, officials, and nobles.

The same is true in terms of commerce and trade. Minerals, sea salt, etc. are all controlled by those honorable and wealthy businessmen.

Although these are state-owned assets, they are almost swallowed up, and the annual tax revenue is pitifully small.

The taxation of the entire Ming Dynasty is on the heads of the common people, but what they plant is some barren land, how can they not rebel.

Land reform is very urgent, otherwise, Zhu Youjian's little money will be exhausted soon.

As all parts of the north were recovered by Li Yan, the people there were not only extremely hungry, but also faced a huge threat of plague.

Many, many things are in front of Zhu Youjian, but there is no way to solve them all at once, only one thing at a time.
