Da Ming started to ascend the throne

"No need, the concubine is just changing the emperor's clothes."

Under the service of Qinglian, Zhu Youjian quickly went to the imperial study room without even eating breakfast.

Seeing Zhu Youjian's leaving back, Qinglian sighed softly:

"Such a good emperor, why did we oppose him in the first place!"

……

Zheng Chenggong had been waiting for the emperor in the imperial study for a long time, when he saw Zhu Youjian enter the imperial study, he hurried forward to pay homage to him:

"Zheng Chenggong, the captain of the navy, see the emperor, may my emperor live long and live forever"

Zhu Youjian waved his hand lightly:

"Zheng Aiqing excuse me, please tell me about the situation of my Daming Navy."

Chapter 124

No matter what dynasty in history, local officials stationed abroad were not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned, otherwise they would be punished with death.

Zheng Chenggong, as the governor of the Daming Navy, has been stationed in Fujian all year round, and under normal circumstances he cannot enter Beijing privately.

But when Zhu Youjian appointed him as the governor of the Ming Navy, he gave Zheng Chenggong the privilege that he could enter and leave the capital at any time as long as he had something to do.

Hearing the emperor asked about the Daming Navy, Zheng Chenggong sighed softly, and then reported the current situation of the Daming Navy to Zhu Youjian.

The Ming Navy used to be the number one navy in the world. After pacifying the Japanese pirates along the coast for a hundred years, the navy gradually declined due to all-out efforts to deal with the Eastern captives and rogue bandits.

Now there are many warships in various ports, but they are all old-fashioned warships. Many warships have been in disrepair for a long time and can no longer be used.

Because of the huge number, it was very easy for Zheng Chenggong to choose [-] ships.

Now the number of the navy is about 1, and [-] people are patrolling the oceans in various places. They form the Daming Navy Patrol Team.

The 1 people who are really capable of fighting are concentrated in the Quanzhou Naval Base in Fujian. In the days when there is no naval battle, the navy will start a business while training.

Zheng Chenggong knew that Daming was short of food and there were hungry people everywhere. In order to repay the emperor for his kindness, he divided the navy into two groups for training.

During the first batch of training, the second batch went fishing and made sea salt.

During the second batch of training, the first batch started fishing and making sea salt.

At that time, there were a lot of catches in the sea, and it was often impossible to pull the net out, and it was often full of fish and shrimp.

Each boat can harvest tens of thousands of catties a day. You must know that the fishing nets at that time were very simple, but it is not as advanced as it is now.

Zheng Chenggong ordered some to be distributed to the surrounding residents, and the rest were developed and dried as fish for storage.

This time Zheng Chenggong entered Beijing by water, and the [-] large boats were filled with dried fish and sea salt as his gift to the emperor.

Zhu Youjian's original intention was to let Zheng Chenggong form a powerful Daming Navy, but he went to fish and dry sea salt to generate income for Daming.

Daming is very poor now, and the people also need to solve the problem of food and clothing. There is no threat at sea, and there is no war in the navy.

Zhu Youjian can understand Zhong Zheng Chenggong's ideas and practices.

But this is not his original intention.

"On behalf of the people, I would like to thank Aiqing for your kindness, but I also want to build an invincible fleet, and I will allocate 1000 million taels of silver to the Ministry of Households.

Silver and money are not a problem, you look at this picture, just try your best to build it according to the appearance in this picture, and I will let the Ministry of Industry fully cooperate with you. "

Zhu Youjian took out a warship manufacturing blueprint exchanged from the system and asked Zheng Chenggong to come and watch it.Recommended reading ../../

Although it is the most basic iron armor and the most primitive steam power, Zheng Chenggong is still extremely shocked by this kind of warship.

Now in 1644, in 1679 the prototype of the steam engine appeared in France.

With the system in place, it shouldn't be too difficult for Zhu Youjian to build a primary iron-clad warship.

There are blueprints, the Ministry of Industry also has advanced iron-making technology, and Zhao Shizhen is also working overtime to develop firearms and artillery.

Once the steam engine and ironclad ship are successfully developed, they will be absolutely invincible at that time.

Seeing such an advanced thing, Zheng Chenggong lay down on the ground excitedly, and kowtowed to Zhu Youjian repeatedly.

For him who is proficient in naval warfare, Zheng Chenggong knows how much impact this guy will have on the current navy after he comes out.

"Thank you, Your Majesty"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will do my best to complete it. After returning home, I will immediately gather skilled craftsmen from all over the world to build an invincible navy for Daming."

With blueprints, tens of millions of taels of silver, and the full support of the Ming Ministry of Industry, Zheng Chenggong is very confident in this.

But these things take time. Besides, 1000 million taels of silver is no joke. Daming only pays 300 million taels of silver in taxes a year.

So after Zheng Chenggong calmed down, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

Zhu Youjian knew what he was thinking. There was really no shortage of money now, and the preparations had been completed a long time ago, and it had been transferred to the national treasury.

"Haha, I'm not as poor as you imagined. After a while, you go directly to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, hand over sea salt and dried fish to the Ministry of Households, and get money from the Ministry of Industry."

Zheng Chenggong was so excited that he fell to the ground again, the emperor gave him too many surprises today.

Zhu Youjian stretched out his hand to help Zheng Chenggong:

"Ai Qing, excuse me, if you keep knocking down like this, the gold bricks on the floor will be destroyed by you. After returning, we will temporarily form a small navy. When our army attacks the harbor city, we will all cooperate with the army in the siege battle. Go! "

"Thank you, my lord, my lord."

When Zheng Chenggong went to the household department, Zhu Youjian remembered another thing:

"Come here, send the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry to the Imperial Study Room."

"According to the purpose"

The little eunuch who passed the decree agreed, and hurried to the Ministry of Industry.

After half a stick of incense, Meng Zhaoxiang and Zhao Shizhen rushed to the imperial study.

"Meng Zhaoxiang from the Ministry of Industry sees the emperor."

"Ministry Minister Zhao Shizhen has a meeting with the emperor."

"Excuse me, give me a seat"

"Thank you Lord Long En."
