Daming: At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang simulated the National Games

"Forget about anything else, I'd like to ask a few of you this time, when will the first batch of Ming dynasty guns be ready, and how many Ming dynasty guns can be made if this method is feasible."

Hearing Zhu Gaoxu's question, Yang Yan and others looked at each other and discussed in a low voice before replying to Zhu Gaoxu: "There are blueprints for this Ming dynasty gun, so it is not difficult to make it. We can start it after studying it for a day or two."

Now, if this mold method is feasible, the first batch of Ming guns will be produced in one month. The number of this first batch of Ming guns will be smaller, but there should be a hundred or ten, but the second batch will have at least four or five.

Hundreds of shots, if more manpower is added, the output will be more."

Hearing Yang Yan's words, Zhu Gaoxu nodded. This was somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Okay, I will lead my troops to the north to fight against thieves in three months. I hope to let the new army try our Ming gun first. These people will need to train for at least a month, and at the same time, some people will have to be eliminated, so the two

In a few months, you must equip me with at least two thousand Ming dynasty guns. As for the manpower problem, I will personally report it to the Ming Emperor, and I believe this will not be a problem."

After hearing Zhu Gaoxu's words, several people took orders one after another.

After getting down to business, Zhu Gaoxu really couldn't stay here any longer, and then led Yan Zhenzhi out.

As soon as he left the house, Yan Zhenzhi patted the horse with admiration and said: "His Royal Highness is indeed a proud man among the people. In just a few words, he solved the problem that had troubled a group of veteran craftsmen with 20 to 30 years of experience in making firearms.

"

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu waved his hands modestly. Just as he was about to speak, a eunuch came in from outside.

Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu was here, the eunuch was stunned for a moment, then saluted Zhu Gaoxu and said, "I have met the Prince of Nanyang County."

Zhu Gaoxu nodded, thinking that Lao Zhu had another will for him, but this time he did not expect that the person Lao Zhu was looking for was Yan Zhenzhi.

"Master Yan, the emperor summons you to the palace."

When Yan Zhenzhi heard that the emperor asked him to find him, he did not dare to neglect. After saying goodbye to Zhu Gaoxu, he followed the eunuch and left in a hurry.

It was also expected by Zhu Gaoxu that Lao Zhu sought out Yan Zhenzhi.

I guess he was also asking about the Ming Dynasty gunfire. After all, what Zhu Gaoxu told Lao Zhu this morning was too weird and not detailed. It was normal for Zhu Yuanzhang to ask.

Now that he was alone, Zhu Gaoxu walked out of the courtyard slowly, not bothering to wander around anywhere else. Seeing that the sedan was still parked at the door, he got on the sedan and returned to Prince Yan's Mansion.

It was rare that Zhu Gaoxu saw his father Zhu Di as soon as he returned to Prince Yan's Mansion.

Although Zhu Di is no longer in the fiefdom when he comes back, he still has a lot of things to do, so both father and son leave early and come back late. In addition, Zhu Gaoxu has not eaten at home in the past two days, so regardless of living in the same place, they have never met each other.

noodle.

Zhu Gaoxu was still quite afraid of this father, so when he saw Zhu Di, he would avoid him when he was greeted.

But at this time, Zhu Di stopped him.

"Come to the study with me and have a chat."

Zhu Gaoxu took back the foot he had just raised to slip away, and followed Zhu Di reluctantly.

When he came to the study, Zhu Di sat behind the desk, then pointed to the chair beside him and motioned for Zhu Gaoxu to sit down too.

Sitting down honestly, Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhu Di, waiting for Zhu Di to speak.

Zhu Di first looked at Zhu Gaoxu, and then asked: "I heard that you took your eldest brother to Wanhua Tower to drink flower wine yesterday?"

Hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Gaoxu subconsciously wanted to get up and run away.

However, his reason still made him sit still.

I guess the beating would be even more severe if he ran away.

There is no use in denying it, Zhu Di is not stupid, and there is probably no use in moving out Lao Zhu.

Seeing that there was no other way, Zhu Gaoxu simply admitted it openly.

The expected scolding did not appear, but Zhu Di pointedly pointed out: "I heard that there is also Mr. Yan, the Minister of Industry?"

When Zhu Gaoxu saw Zhu Di asking this, he didn't know what Zhu Di meant for a moment, but he still nodded.

Seeing that his son did not deny it, Zhu Di continued: "When you grow up, my father will take back the punishment he gave you before. From now on, you should eat at home, and you should keep accounts when you go out to spend money. If you want money, give it to your mother, let me know.

Your mother will give it to you."

Zhu Di's two sentences seemed unrelated, but Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have found some information and was so frightened that he stood up from his chair.

"Father, could it be that you..."

Before Zhu Gaoxu could finish speaking, Zhu Di reached out and interrupted him. Looking at his son's reaction, he knew that this little bastard must have thought of it.

"My son is so smart. Follow your mother and follow me."

But Zhu Gaoxu was not happy when he heard Zhu Di's compliment. Instead, he broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

"Father, isn't it a little early...actually..."

"You don't need to say more. Father knows what he's saying. Just give it a try. It's too early to tell. If it doesn't work, we'll go back to the north." Zhu Di interrupted Zhu Gaoxu again.

Then he talked about something else with Zhu Gaoxu.

"I see you've been quite busy lately. It seems you've come up with something new."

With Zhu Di's current status, he naturally has his information channels. Although Zhu Gaoxu thinks he keeps secrets well, in the eyes of truly powerful people, it is too easy to find out. It just depends on whether you want to know or not.
