Chapter 646: A new continent filled with gold

Dark night.

On the western plains, the clear night sky sheds boundless starlight.The fire in the Indian gathering place was burning through, emitting a faint orange light.

In the dark night, around Akito's camp, there were several officers and soldiers standing vigil, their bright eyes scanning the wilderness outside the camp from time to time, alert to all dangers that might appear in the dark night.

The officers and soldiers ignored the Indian girl as she walked out of the Indian gathering place and walked into their camp.

In the eyes of the officers and soldiers, maybe this is a unique custom?
The Ming Dynasty came here to bring a new life to the people on this land. Naturally, it was not good to destroy other people's customs and characteristics.

Zhu Yunwen stayed in his tent and didn't sleep for a long time.

His ears were always alert to what was going on outside.

The Indian girl had already stepped carefully, but she was still caught by Zhu Yunwen.

It was just that for a long time, there was no sound that should have been heard from the camp next door.

On the contrary, not long after, his tent was opened by Sun Cheng from the outside.

"what are you doing?"

Zhu Yunwen raised his head and stared at Sun Cheng, who was only wearing a coat, with puzzled eyes.

Sun Cheng looked at Zhu Yunzhen, whose face was full of ambiguity, with some embarrassment and anger on his face.

He ducked into Zhu Yunwen's tent and closed the curtain.

"Squeeze in tonight."

While talking, Sun Cheng and Zhu Yunwen lay down foot to foot.

Zhu Yunwen sat up.

"It's not like you don't have your own tent, why are you here here?"

Sun Cheng turned sideways and said gloomily: "Can I sleep over there? Go to sleep quickly. We will have contact with the people here again tomorrow. If we find out the situation here, we can send the news to the sky."

As he spoke, Sun Cheng yawned.

But Zhu Yunwen couldn't sleep.

The fire of gossip burned brightly in Zhu Yunwen's heart.

"Isn't that girl good-looking? They took the initiative to send you a girl, and you just let them go back like this?"

Sun Cheng roared, and then said gloomily: "I don't know where the rules came from, but they are the same as those Mongolians outside the pass. That girl can be my daughter, but when she got into the tent, she stripped naked and got into my bed. .”

Zhu Yunwen curled his lips: "Are you still not happy?"

"The girl is still in the tent. If you like, just go over there." Sun Cheng held up his arms and looked at Zhu Yunwen with a raised brow.

Zhu Yunwen's face showed surprise: "The girl is still over there?"

After reciting a sentence, he shook his head again and again.

"I won't go there. They don't want to get under my bed."

Sun Cheng hummed twice and said in a low voice: "I don't know what the customs are here, so I had to let the girl stay in the tent and sleep all night."

Zhu Yunwen winked and realized that Sun Cheng actually had such a considerate and considerate side.

He lay down again and stretched out an arm to press on the quilt.

Sun Cheng deserves to die, even though he washed himself in the river today, his feet still stink!
Sun Cheng blinked and looked at the roof of the tent.

After a long time, Sun Chengcai spoke again: "This land is very good. Except for the mountains in the west from the sea, it is all grassland. Once the court decides to move the people here, this place can really become the second Jiangnan.”

"Simply growing food is no longer the most urgent thing for our Ming Dynasty to do now."

Zhu Yunwen's voice sounded in the dim tent.

He continued: "There are many crops and minerals here that are not found in the Central Plains. Those are the things we need most in the Ming Dynasty. When Yuan Shaoshi went south to Jiaozhi Road, many people in the Shanglin Garden were sacrificed to get such new species back here. Over the past few years, we, the people of Ming Dynasty, have had enough to eat.

When we came together, I saw many species that are not found in the Central Plains.When the time comes, we will get all those things back to the sky first. As for the gold and silver that are placed here, they will not escape. When more people are sent by the court, we can definitely hire local people to mine the veins. "

Sun Cheng thought for a while and determined that what Zhu Yunwen said was correct.

Sun Cheng then said: "We brought a lot of salt here this time. In addition to our own consumption, there is also a lot of excess. Starting tomorrow, we can use salt to exchange plant seeds that are not available in the Central Plains with the people here. "

A smile appeared on Zhu Yunwen's face: "That's what we should do. If it is possible to go back, let the court directly load the fine salt from the Lianghuai Salt Fields and send it all the way across the sea to here. As long as we can do it, this is completely meaningless. Ben’s sale.”

The tent became slightly quiet.

Zhu Yunwen and Sun Cheng were both caught up in their own fantasies.

After half a sound.

Sun Chengcai spoke in a low voice: "It's just that after the war, the imperial court will probably pay more attention to domestic New Deal matters. But this place is too far away from the imperial court. Will the imperial court vigorously deal with matters here?"

After all, the New World is too far away from the Ming Dynasty.

It took them almost a year to get here just by walking.

If the imperial court develops the New World on a large scale, they can use horse teams to transport goods and people, but the journey will take about half a year anyway.

As for the sea route, it would have to wait until the court figured out the sea route before it could determine how long it would take to travel between the two places.

Bang.

Just when Sun Cheng thought Zhu Yunwen was also worried about this problem.

But he heard a muffled sound in front of him.

Then Sun Cheng took a closer look and saw a thick notebook lying vaguely in front of him in the dim tent.

Sun Cheng opened the book and could vaguely see that it was filled with a lot of words. A few pages apart, there were also some animal and plant figures that could not be distinguished at the moment.

Just when Sun Cheng was confused.

Zhu Yunwen's voice has already sounded: "Since we crossed the frozen strait, I have begun to record what I saw along the way. Of course, some parts are exaggerated, but I believe that as long as this content is sent to heaven, No one in the entire government will oppose the development of this new continent."

bass.

Huh.

In the tent, Sun Cheng touched the fire folding piece, opened it and blew it on fire.

He held the fire certificate in one hand and flipped through the notebook Zhu Yunwen threw over with the other.

Most of the entire book has been used up, and it is full of text descriptions of this new world, as well as pictures and pictures.

He didn't expect that Zhu Yunwen had done so many things, but he didn't know it at all.

But soon, Sun Cheng sighed softly: "It will take at least more than a year to send it back now."

Zhu Yunwen laughed: "Actually, when I sent the letter to Yingtian before, I copied a copy of what I wrote and asked someone to send it to Yingtian as well. Thinking about it, it won't take long for Yingtian to send the letter Got these things I recorded.”

Swish.

Sun Cheng suddenly sat up.

Zhu Yunwen never told himself about this matter from beginning to end.

He was a little surprised that the other party had begun to request the imperial court to vigorously develop the New World in this way.

Zhu Yunwen also sat up and spread his hands towards Sun Cheng.

"Don't get me wrong, I just hope that the court can know the true situation here as soon as possible. Once the court knows the situation, they will definitely send someone over. Then we can go back early, right?"

Sun Cheng carefully observed Zhu Yunwen for a long time before sighing.

He didn't see Zhu Yunwen's intention to stay in this new world, and exactly as he said, he really wanted to go back.

Sun Cheng lay down again and asked: "Do you want to walk back the same way or take a boat?"

"Of course I want to go back by boat. I have to see how big this sea is."

"Then I'll take the boat back with you." "Go to sleep first, maybe tomorrow the girl will tell you that she's pregnant with your child."

"You! Absurd!"

……

Yingtian City.

It's late autumn, and there are several persimmon trees in the palace. Their leaves have turned yellow and fallen a lot. The golden persimmons on the branches are heavy, bending the branches.

"Sheng'er, call Grandpa 23 quickly."

"Sheng'er, can Grandpa 23 take you to climb a tree?"

From the back of the East Palace, Xiao 23 Zhu Huang's shout came.

I saw him climbing on a persimmon tree, shouting continuously at the little fleshy ball of a cricket pupating on the grass under the tree.

Not far away, several women were sitting under a pavilion.

It is the female family members of Taisun Mansion, the inner residence of Zhu Gaochi's family, and several empresses in the harem.

Qiuniang was also sitting there, but she kept her head lowered, occasionally being attracted by the shouts of Xiao 23 on the persimmon tree.

Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi crossed their arms and stood on the grass, paying attention to their little uncle 23 who had climbed up the tree so as not to fall.

"Abba! Abba!"

The little meat ball crawled happily on the grass, as if he really wanted to climb the persimmon tree like his 23-year-old grandfather.

Zhu Huang has grown up a lot now, but he is even more naughty than before.

The ladies in the palace can no longer control him, and the old man is too lazy to control him now.

As a result, it became increasingly lawless.

Fortunately, the prince's brother occasionally disciplined Zhu Huang, so he didn't let him overthrow the imperial city.

Zhu Huang on the tree looked anxiously at the little meat ball under the tree, feeling that this little grandson was really a loser.

"Little Meatball, you are really stupid, hurry up and crawl."

While talking, Zhu Huang had already picked a bright red persimmon.

"Little meat balls, do you want to eat them?"

"Quickly shout Grandpa 23, and I will come down and feed you."

The little meat ball crawled on the ground, raising its head, with a smile on its face, and drool couldn't stop dripping from the corners of its mouth.

"Aba Aba! (I want to eat)"

"Abba, Abba, Abba! (Give it to me quickly)"

However, Zhu Huang held the branch without letting go and shook the persimmon in his hand: "You shout, and I will eat it for you."

"Abba! (Bad guy)"

Looking at the little meatball, he already frowned, but Zhu Huang on the tree laughed.

Not far away, Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi stood together, completely ignoring this.

Children just have to be wild.

Zhu Gaochi took a look twice and was sure that Uncle 23 would not climb up any more, so he felt relieved and turned to look at Zhu Yunxi sideways: "More than half of the officials in the 18th Mansion of Zhili Road have bowed their heads. I wrote a memorial to apologize and handed it over. It's in Zou Xueyu's hands. Some people think that as long as they complete the set payment of commercial taxes, the court may be lenient to them and take no action."

"Is the autumn exam starting soon?"

Zhu Yunxi suddenly asked.

The Autumn Examination is the latest system established by the imperial court to select the best talents from all over the world for officials twice a year.One spring exam and one autumn exam to select court and local officials.

Zhu Gaochi nodded: "The exam will start early next month."

Zhu Yunxi agreed: "When the autumn examination begins, we will first clean up the official list of the 18th government office in Zhili Province. Some of them will be replaced by officers and men who have made meritorious service in the previous Northern Expedition, and some will wait until the autumn examination is completed before sending them there. "

"What about officials from the 18th Prefecture of Zhili Province?"

"Let the cabinet, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Three Law Departments make the decision."

Zhu Yunxi said casually.

Under the Hongwu New Deal, officials inside and outside the imperial court were already destined to undergo a major change of blood.

It's just a matter of sooner or later.

Unless they are those who have great talents, are loyal to the court, and are loyal to the Ming Dynasty, they will be replaced by new people.

Why have most of the innovations throughout the ages ended in failure?
There are many reasons, and one of them is that the local government power has not been updated.

In the imperial court, the New Deal was formulated with great fanfare and perfection, but the people underneath have not changed, and things will always become the same as they were before.

How to implement the New Deal without changing the medicine?
The Ming Dynasty has been unifying the thoughts of the imperial court in recent years, and now it is time to change the thinking of the local officials.

Those who are capable should stay in their positions and wait for the inspection. If they pass the inspection, they will continue to work. If they fail the inspection, they will do whatever they want.

As for those who can't do it, they can invite themselves back to their hometowns now.

Everyone can show some dignity to each other.

Zhu Gaochi noticed Zhu Yunxi's change in direction on the New Deal and wrote it down.

far away.

Yutian, the manager of Taisun Mansion, trotted over and walked behind Zhu Yunxi.

"Your Highness, there is news sent back from outside. It was sent back by those who went to find the New World."

Zhu Yunxi suddenly turned around and looked at Yu Tian, ​​who had his head lowered.

Beside him, Zhu Gaochi also looked at the manager of Taisun's Mansion with curiosity.

"Where is the message now?"

Yutian whispered: "Over at the cabinet, several cabinet elders are currently reviewing the news coming back from there. I listened to a few words roughly, and it seemed that many things were recorded in writing. I have to read them all. It still takes a lot of time.”

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Gaochi silently.

He didn't expect that the news over there would come back so quickly.

Because of the difference in cognition, Zhu Yunxi knew that there was a new continent on the opposite side.From beginning to end, his only worry was whether Zhu Yunwen and Sun Cheng could find the New World.

Now, it seems they've actually found it.

Zhu Yunxi immediately turned his head again and looked at Zhu Huang on the persimmon tree: "Uncle 23, if you don't come down, you won't be able to leave the palace again this year!"

Stab.

Zhu Huang slid down from the persimmon tree, stood obediently under the tree, and quietly handed the persimmon in his hand to the little meatball hand that reached out to him.

Zhu Yunxi said again: "Look at the little meatball, Brother Chi and I will go ahead to discuss some matters with the elders."

Zhu Huang had a smile on his face, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, just leave the little meatball to me!"

puff.

Holding the small fleshy ball of the persimmon, with one push, the whole face was buried in the persimmon.

Zhu Yunxi felt dizzy for a while, but he still looked at Yutian without looking at him.

The three of them were already rushing towards the cabinet.
