My Daming New Empire

Habayashi Guardian School is an advanced education method carried out by Zhu Zhanji in accordance with the military academies of later generations, all with the purpose of obeying orders.

Of course, these young troops are incomparable in terms of overall quality, but after nearly half a year of training, each of them has the standards of future generations of recruits.

They know how to obey all kinds of orders, know all kinds of rules and regulations, and even know how to cooperate on the battlefield.

Such soldiers, in Ming Dynasty, are considered elite soldiers.What's more, they are all issued with muskets, even if they are weaker, they are almost invincible.

Beiming Mountain is becoming more and more important in Zhu Zhanji's heart. It is not only a gold mine, but also a bridgehead for Zhu Zhanji to colonize Siberia.

These [-] young troops are led by [-] Habayashi guards who have been educated by Qian Zong. They will familiarize themselves with the situation in the whole northern Xinjiang, draw maps, and prepare for the future large immigration.

Having said all the things that should be explained, Xue Lu finished the wine in the wine cup and put the wine cup into his arms.Then he bowed and said: "Your Highness, please rest assured, when I arrive at Beiming Mountain, I will definitely guard the North Gate for Daming. Those Mongolian and Yuan tribes are obedient, and if they are not obedient, they will use their blood to wash my Daming's sword clean."

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said: "Don't pretend to be confused, I didn't let you go to let you kill people. If you dare to kill innocent people, I will take your head off first. Make a good few years of money, earn some money, and go back to Nanzhou It doesn't matter, Dongzhou or not, go and work hard for me."

Xue Lu laughed loudly and said, "Your Highness's life has long belonged to me. There are 23 members of my Xue family, and His Highness is the only one to look after me."

Then, he knelt down on both knees, kowtowed three times to Zhu Zhanji, then got up and said, "Your Highness, I'm gone."

Zhu Zhanji nodded, raised his right hand, and the three cannons on the pier were ignited one by one, making three loud bangs.

And Xue Lu boarded the flagship river boat, raised the marching flag, and the fleet left the dock one by one amidst the sound of drums.

Xue Lu took out the wine cup that was hidden just now from his arms, which should have been smashed directly on the ground, implying a safe year.

He handed the wine cup to his favorite youngest son and said, "Put it away. From now on, this little wine cup may save a life in front of Your Highness."

(There is still [-] later today, make up for the day before yesterday.)

Chapter 91 City Construction (revision)

The Ministry of Industry has always been the largest department of the imperial court, but this does not mean that the Ministry of Industry has more senior officials, but because the Ministry of Industry manages the most craftsmen.

The status of a craftsman is low, even if he becomes a small official, in the eyes of those scholars, he is still an inferior person.

Therefore, for more than 1000 years, the Ministry of Industry has been ranked at the end of the six departments.

Since four years ago, the Ministry of Industry has added a technical patent department. This originally humble office has developed into a specialized department with nearly a thousand craftsmen in just four years.

And Liu Jie, who was originally squeezed out by the members of the Ministry of Industry and assigned to the Patent Department, has changed from a marginal figure to a hot celebrity in the capital in the past few years.

As a descendant of the criminal minister Liu Bowen, for the sake of family glory, Liu Jie endured supercilious and ostracized in the capital, and now he finally has his day.

In the conversation with Zhu Zhanji at the beginning, he grasped Zhu Zhanji's mind very well. Now all the work of the patent department is for technology promotion services.

For each patented technology that is applied for, before the patent certificate is issued, the Patent Department will have a special person to classify the technology.

Different industries have different people in charge, and then spread the word across the country.

Regardless of whether the applicant is willing or not, this technology will be publicized in detail except for the details of its use and function.

At this time, except for large merchants, most people will choose to license the patent.

Therefore, from Yongle 14 to 18, although the Ministry of Industry carried out construction projects all over the country because of the cement, it could not hide the limelight of the Patent Department.

Today's Yingtianfu Dental Clinic, and dental clinics in all major prefectures, have opened patent services.All kinds of new technologies have been fully applied.

As Liu Jie's fame grew, the patent department made more and more profits.

It's not that no one wants to push Liu Jie away, but Liu Jie has already registered in front of Zhu Zhanji, and Zhu Zhanji gave Liu Jie all his grandson orders.

In addition, Song Li, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, had already been instructed by Zhu Zhanji to protect Liu Jie and let him sit safely in the doctor's position.

The north side of Chang'an Square in Yingtian Mansion and the moat of the Imperial Palace's inner warehouse were originally a flat land separated.

During the Hongwu Dynasty, the population of Yingtianfu was less than one million. For the safety of the palace, no houses were allowed here.

But after the Yongle Dynasty, the population of Yingtianfu increased year after year.In addition, overseas countries have set up Honglu Temple in Yingtianfu, arranged for envoys, and overseas businessmen, so it was overcrowded.

In the 12th year of Yongle, the registered population of Yingtianfu reached 15 million, with another [-] permanent residents.

According to the 16-year population statistics of Yongle, the registered population exceeds 120 million, and the permanent population is over 30.

In other words, the population of the entire Yingtian Mansion exceeded 150 million.

This is not a city with high-rise buildings in later generations. Most of the people today live in bungalows, and the living area of ​​civil and military officials is very large, which makes the people's living more crowded.

The establishment of the Jiajiang Industrial Zone eased the housing shortage in Yingtianfu to a certain extent, because many people moved out of the city when they went to work there.

However, there is still a growing shortage of housing and public land in Yingtianfu.

In May, Song Li wrote a letter and reported the situation to Zhu Zhanji.

After experiencing the house hype in later generations, Zhu Zhanji certainly knows how to control this situation.

First of all, he ordered that all the construction of Yingtianfu's houses in the future should be planned in a unified manner.

With cement and prefabricated slabs, it is not difficult for Daming to build five or six-story houses.

But the difficulty is supporting facilities, such as water and water.

If there is no up and down water, how will the people use water?how to cookHow to flush the toilet?

The emergence of the steam engine can solve this problem, but it is difficult to popularize it.

Those who live in high-rise buildings must be poor people. It is impossible to expect poor people to buy an expensive steam engine for water and water.

However, Yamen can.

The Patent Department of the Ministry of Industry was originally just a small yamen, but in the past few years, it has developed into a large organization with nearly a thousand officials.

Not counting the officials in various prefectures, there are almost 500 people in the capital alone, responsible for various affairs.

The Ministry of Industry arranged for them a small courtyard in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, which couldn't even accommodate people.

Moreover, more and more materials also need a place to store, so the Patent Department has applied for many times, asking the Ministry of Industry to allow them to build a new office.

But this matter is not so easy to operate. Zhu Di is not familiar with the affairs of the patent department, and always thinks that this is a money-making office run by Zhu Zhanji.

Since it is money-making, of course, the more money the better.Therefore, the look of the patent department was naturally dismissed.

It wasn't until Zhu Zhanji came back that Liu Jie raised practical difficulties with him, and Zhu Zhanji was ready to plan Yingtianfu in a unified way and build a new city.

Residential areas are not easy to renovate now, but the major yamen of the imperial court occupying half of the city can be rebuilt first.

It is not a burden for a yamen to get a steam engine for water and water.What's more, in winter, this steam engine can also provide heating.

After looking at the map of Yingtianfu for a few days, I called Wuzhong and Karl Soli over to make a detailed analysis of the entire environment of Tianfu.
