Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 435 Shipbuilding
Zhou Yang led his men to conquer the north and the south, and of course their navy also wanted to make a name for themselves on the sea.

The people from the two major naval divisions have sent people to contact him secretly since last month, only wanting to include these five warships in their pockets.Even if you can't get five, you can get two or one.

Cheng Fangyuan couldn't do this, so he directly clarified with the two major navies that the cost of building the ship was paid for by Princess Changle herself, and none of the treasury's money was used.

His Majesty personally promised Princess Changle that she would never touch her things, not even a stitch.

This boat belongs to Princess Changle, not to mention that Princess Changle took all the money to build the boat, even if it came from the treasury, the emperor has already promised, who dares to ask the princess to give up the boat.

Cheng Fangyuan was a little undecided for a while, should he gently remind His Majesty about the needs of the navy?

Lu Yange saw Cheng Fangyuan's hesitation, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Seeing His Majesty's question, Cheng Fangyuan immediately beamed with joy.

He used people's money to eliminate disasters, Cheng Fangyuan was an upright person, how could he accept other people's worship for nothing.

"Yes, the navy division would like to ask Princess Changle through the slave's mouth, can two boats come out. The princess just likes to go out to play, and she should have had enough fun outside these years. Why don't you leave the warship to them. Let them make contributions to His Majesty."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Fangyuan carefully lowered his head and looked at the beautiful velvet blanket in front of him.

He didn't dare to pry into the emperor's mind at all. This emperor is stronger than his previous master.

Leaving aside Qiqiao Linglong's heart, she still has some tricks.

Otherwise, she would not replace her cousin in this position as a woman.

"It's pretty beautiful to think about each one."

Lu Yange chuckled, "How many benefits did they give you to make you dare to grab something from the princess?"

"Not much."

Cheng Fangyuan quickly calculated in his mind, "Together it is enough for His Majesty to build two more big ships."

Don't ask why they don't make it if they have the money, it also depends on their ability.

When Princess Changle first sent out man-made boats, no one would say that she was whimsical. Such a big boat, let alone whether it can be built, even if it is built, how to go to sea, how many helmsmen are needed to drive the boat steadily on the sea .

Wait for the five big boats of Princess Changle to enter the sea one by one, look at the majestic big boats, and then look at the structure of the boats.

The two navy masters simply regretted the past, and only then did they realize how precious the technology the princess acquired from overseas was.

It's just that it's too late to regret it. Even if they can spend the money to build one or two more ships, it will take two or three years.

Seeing such a warship, let alone two or three years, they couldn't even wait for two or three days. They wished they could sail Princess Changle's boat back now.

Seeing that the emperor's expression was not angry, Cheng Fangyuan became more courageous.

"Your Majesty, this ship..."

"Since they opened their mouths, I can't refute their face. Then, the two major sailors have a family, and you tell them that this is brazenly snatched from Princess Changle, and it is not for nothing. If they If it’s too little, let them figure it out on their own.”

Cheng Fangyuan immediately opened his eyes and smiled: "This servant knows that His Majesty has a solution."

Lu Yange raised his hand and nodded at him, "Okay, don't act like a good boy after getting the benefits, you keep [-]% of the things given by the navy, and hand over the rest to the treasury."

"Yes, the servant will go immediately."

Cheng Fangyuan smiled flatteringly, "Your Majesty, the slaves dare not accept their favors, they are all forced by their shameless things. It's not the slaves who think that His Majesty has just built a boat for Princess Changle and has no money in hand. If you touch this hand, you will be in bad luck."

Lu Yange laughed: "As long as you can say it, I have to thank you for saving me money."

"Serving His Majesty, the slave is so heartbroken that he will not hesitate to talk about his hard work."

Cheng Fangyuan said, and immediately presented the gift list received to the emperor, "This is the filial piety that this slave has received from the two major naval divisions. Your Majesty, please order. Except for the little drink money that the slave left, the remaining [-]% is here. One point Not much, not much."

Lu Yange nodded: "Let you go down."

After Cheng Fangyuan stepped back out of the palace gate, Lu Yange opened the gift list presented by Cheng Fangyuan and looked through it carefully.

Cheng Fangyuan has received tribute from the people below, but no one knows that most of the tribute received by Eunuch Cheng has gone into the treasury.

Everyone knew that Eunuch Cheng was a celebrity by the emperor's side, but they didn't know that he was also the emperor's money bag.

In recent years, Lu Yange has never deducted Cheng Fangyuan. Cheng Fangyuan was raised in a mansion in central Beijing, the house built in his hometown, the land he bought, and the heir heir was adopted by his brother. Lu Yange turned a blind eye to it. Got it.

Originally, when Lu Xingge was building the ship, he thought that if the two major navy divisions got the news, they would never let go easily.

Three ships are enough for her. By the way, two more ships will be built, and one will be reserved for each of the two major sailors, so as to keep their mouths shut.

Back then, a lot of gold and silver was obtained from the ancient tomb in Dayun Mountain, part of which was filled into the national treasury, and part of which was kept by her. Let alone build five warships, even if she built five more, she could still take out the silver.

It was hard to find cannons and gunpowder. If it wasn't for Zhou Yang's help, she would have to wait another year or two before they could get them together.

After a long time, Chen Luxing walked in lightly.

He stopped in front of the emperor, and said softly, "Father, has Eunuch Cheng come to give you money again?"

Lu Yange borrowed Cheng's father-in-law to make money, and Chen Luxing did not hide this from him.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish. If the water is not clear, then Lu Yange will muddy it himself.

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimps, dried shrimps eat algae.

When the fish grow up, the fat water is slaughtered, and I don't know how many creatures will be raised.

"Ah."

Lu Yange looked at Chen Luxing who was sitting cross-legged across from him, "Is there any idea for the emperor?"

"No, my son is here to ask about Xi Rong's violation of the border. Is it possible for the father to send General Chen?"

Chen Luxing sat up straight, and said seriously, "Father, my son still wants to go to Xirong to see why they have such a big guts. This time I must call Xirong to come and go, let them see me In the Great Shang Dynasty, how could they come and leave whenever they wanted?"

Chen Luxing said this with a lot of confidence. The current Great Shang Dynasty was not when the capital was just established, not to mention the strong soldiers and horses. Aunt Changle even brought artillery from overseas.He had seen the power of this artillery with his own eyes, with a single "boom", it could break a hole in the solid city wall.

It's just that the gunpowder is not easy to make, and after a few shots, it burns all silver.

Silver, silver!
Chen Luxing looked down at the gift list on the table, and this father-in-law was indeed a good dog.

Unfortunately, he is only loyal to his father!
It cannot be used by him, otherwise it will be backlashed.
