Chapter 38

In the 21st century, Jiang Chen was eloquent, but the figures in Song and Ming were completely shocked by Jiang Chen's blueprint.

Great Song.

"There is such a fast ship in the world. It may not take a month to reach Shenzhou at this speed!"

Looking at Lu Xiufu who was approaching, Zhang Shijie did not refuse, his figure was still shocked by the words on it, and he muttered to himself.

He couldn't help but what he was describing in front of him really made him unable to calm down.

Such a fast ship was not on the same level as their previous ships.

At this speed, even the ten thousand li sea frontier doesn't seem so far away.

"Mr. is indeed a great talent!"

"There is such a fetish!"

Lu Xiufu saw the text in it, and at this moment, he couldn't help but feel the same excitement in his heart, and his eyes also had an unimaginable light.

The advent of the clipper at this moment seemed to directly solve their biggest problem.

"Lord Lu, let's start the construction immediately. Based on the blueprints, half a year should be enough to complete the construction. Although it may not be durable enough, it will be enough in a short time."

Zhang Shijie took a deep breath, looked at Lu Xiufu and spoke solemnly.

"Okay, I will order people to find the white oak now!"

Lu Xiufu nodded and immediately agreed.

Ming dynasty.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Zhu Di held the blueprint in front of him, his hands were trembling, it was an expression of excitement and excitement.

The development of Daming at this moment has undoubtedly entered a new era, and the great voyage has already begun.

And when the prelude kicked off, Zhu Di also discovered a problem, that is, the speed of the sea-going ship is still too slow. A lot of information, even if it is only about Nanyang, would take him four months, or even five or six months later. to be able to receive it.

This made many of his ideas impossible to carry out.

For example, during this period of time, he planned to set up an institution in Nanyang similar to the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

In the past, the Silk Road brought endless wealth to the Han Dynasty, and now the Southeast Asia has also brought endless wealth to the Ming Dynasty. Under this situation, the establishment of an organization has become an urgent matter.

He even thought of the name (Jiugang Xuanweisi)
(You don’t really think that Zhu Di is showing off, do you? Historically, there was the Xuanwei Division in Old Port, which was one of the few overseas “enclaves” in Chinese history. The Ming Dynasty navy established a city gate in Mancajia, the Strait of Malacca , Warehouse, as a transit point for the operation of the Western Seas, is another major activity of Zheng He's voyages to the Western Seas.)
But the problem is that management is just too difficult.

It often takes four, five months, or even half a year to transmit messages. Although it is better than the Western Regions, the complexity of Nanyang is much more complicated than that of the Western Regions. If he wants to manage, he must have a fast enough message transmission speed.

Otherwise, once there is a problem in the Ming Dynasty, it will inevitably lose control first.

So he has been thinking about it for a while.

But he didn't expect Jiang Chen to send him the artifact directly while he was thinking about it.

That's right, it's an artifact.

For Zhu Di, the clipper sailboat is an artifact.

The speed far exceeds that of the treasure ship, which is enough to make the spread of news on the ocean smoother. Even if it takes Nanyang to reach the capital of Ming Dynasty, including land, it will not take more than two months.

Even if it is urgent, it may be able to arrive in Kyoto in a month.

One must know that it would take half a year for news from the Guangdong and Guangxi regions to spread to Kyoto, and this speed was enough for Daming to have an idea about Nanyang.

"Let Song Li come and see me!"

With excitement in his heart, Zhu Di spoke directly.

Soon a eunuch quickly took the order and left.

An hour later, Song Li hurried into the palace.

"His Majesty!"

Song Li saluted respectfully, with a somewhat puzzled expression.

"No need to be polite, I have a blueprint of a sea ship here, and there is only one order. I need to build enough of them as soon as possible!"

Zhu Di spoke, and then motioned to the eunuch to send the drawings to Song Li.

"Sea ship drawings?"

Song Li was a little confused, but he quickly took the drawing.

But when Song Li opened it subconsciously, his brows twitched violently.

"This!"

Song Li looked up instantly, looking at the book with disbelief, and then at Zhu Di.

"I'll give you three months. I need five hundred ships. Can it be done?"

Zhu Di understood that Song Li was shocked, waved his hand, and then spoke solemnly.

"Five hundred ships, it should be possible. There is still a lot of wood left in the past when making treasure ships. We only need to replace them, but at this speed."

Song Li hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

It will naturally take a lot longer to build from scratch. However, after Zheng He's voyages to the West, major shipyards in the Ming Dynasty have retained a large amount of materials. The next step is to assemble it, which will naturally be much simpler. Five hundred in three months Ship, this problem is not big.

It's just that Song Li was still a little suspicious, there was no way this speed was unbelievable no matter how you looked at it.

"You don't have to worry about this, just follow the drawings!"

Zhu Di spoke calmly.

"Yes!"

Although Song Li was full of doubts, he quickly agreed.

After ordering Song Li, Zhu Di also began to take further actions.

When the sun shines the next day.

A court discussion about Nanyang and the establishment of the Old Port Propaganda Department began immediately.

The court meeting lasted for a whole day.

In the end, the Ming Dynasty decided to establish the Jiugang Propaganda Department in the place where Manchuria and Canada were located in Nanyang. The first Jiugang Propaganda Envoy was Zheng Hui.

The Department of Xuanwei is in charge of military and civilian affairs. It is divided into general counties and counties. If the province has government orders, it will be issued to the subordinates.

At this moment, Zhu Di finally stretched out his palm towards Nanyang.

Moreover, it is completely different from the old Hong Kong Propaganda Department in history. Due to the opening of the age of great navigation, Malacca's role has further increased, and the old port Xuan Comfort Department's rights and garrisons will also be greater.

Not only has the original garrison of [-] troops, but Zhu Di has added [-] troops, bringing the Xuanwei Division's garrison in the old port to [-] and more than [-] warships.

It really has the ability to threaten and even rule the entire surrounding Nanyang countries.

And the original rented land, under the sincere request of the Manga Kingdom, really became under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, including most of the Strait of Malacca, Palembang, Sumatra, Indonesia, and dozens of nearby islands. Its scope is no less than that of the Ming Dynasty. Any province in the territory.

Compared with the old Hong Kong Xuanwei Division in history, it is even bigger in terms of scope alone, let alone others.

More importantly, with the support of the Age of Discovery, it is bound to be impossible for this place to be directly abandoned as it was in history.

After all, the importance of this place has surpassed that of the Old Port Xuanwei Division in the original trajectory.

While the Ming Dynasty was taking action, the Song Dynasty also began to take action.

With clippers everything is different.
