After a deep introspection, Emperor Chongzhen, who was good at discovering his mistakes and making corrections, fell into deep self-blame.

If such a good prince doesn't make good use of it, my conscience will hurt, right?Must be right?

After Wang Chengen was sent to the imperial dining room to send a message to prepare for the imperial banquet, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said: "England has completely calmed down now, and the things I discussed with Uncle Wang when I was in England before can also be carried out."

Naturally, Zhu Yujian thanked him again—who knows what kind of madness Emperor Chongzhen suddenly had, and allocated a piece of land in England to reward the Tang Dynasty.

But this is also a good thing, at least after the second son is sealed off, those sons who stayed on Xinming Island will divide the territory, and each of them will get more, which is also good news for the eldest son.

However, Emperor Chongzhen's plan was beyond Zhu Yujian's expectation: "Europa's territory is really too big, and it borders on Ottoman. I am always worried. What does Uncle Wang think?"

What do you mean?

Looking at Emperor Chongzhen with a bewildered face, Zhu Yujian's heart was actually more bewildered than the bewildered expression on his face - what are you planning to do, old man?Want to get all the princes of Xinming Island to Europa?

At the beginning, you didn't fight the Mughal barbarians, let alone killed a few feudal kings. You must be dissatisfied in your heart, right?Are you going to make up for it now?

After pondering for a long while, Zhu Yujian, who had been entangled infinitely, bowed and said: "Your Majesty's words are absolutely true. It's just that I think that there are many small countries in the land of Europe, and tens of thousands of barbarians dare to call themselves a country. In fact, it is not enough. consider?"

PS: Sacrifice "I picked up a book of Three Kingdoms" today

Chapter 832 Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is intended for the king of Tang?

"The barbarians in Europa are naturally nothing to worry about." Emperor Chongzhen first affirmed Zhu Yujian's statement, and then said: "It's just that under the order of extending grace, there must be many vassals who want to say that I am mean and ungrateful behind my back."

Zhu Yujian cursed secretly in his heart, and then he hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, although the ministers are far away on Xinming Island, they still have a great heart in their hearts, and they are grateful for His Majesty's grace, and they must never dare to have such rebellious thoughts. , I hope His Majesty will see clearly!"

Emperor Chongzhen gave Zhu Yujian a hand with a smile, and continued, "I know Uncle Wang's loyalty, and what I said just now was just out of feeling, and has nothing to do with Uncle Wang."

After Zhu Yujian took his seat again, Emperor Chongzhen said: "It's a pity that we don't think about it for a place as big as Europa. I'm afraid Emperor Gao, the great ancestor, will think that we are incompetent."

Zhu Yujian was even more confused now.

It seems that the king did not enter the palace to discuss the matter of Europa with your old man, did he?Seems like it's about the railway?Why is it being brought to Emperor Taizu Gao now?

After pondering for a while, Zhu Yujian finally said, "Then what does His Majesty mean?"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, do you still remember the Spanish Francois?"

Although Zhu Yujian has never dealt with those Spanish barbarians, he still knows about the fact that the South China Sea Fleet and the Spaniards have had a lot of trouble.

Even the Spaniards still have some business dealings with Xinming Island.

Xinming Island is really too big, and the products on it are also rich enough. In addition to a large amount of materials being shipped to Daming, some of them were sold to Europe through the Dutch East India Company and the Spaniards.

This is also the reason why the feudal kings on Xinming Island are so rich.

After nodding his head, Zhu Yujian said: "Of course I remember those Spanish barbarians. It seems that some English barbarians were wiped out on Xinming Island? Or were they Spanish barbarians? I can't remember clearly either."

Emperor Chongzhen said with great certainty: "It must be the Spanish barbarians! In addition to committing heinous crimes in Luzon, those barbarians also hurt my Yin and Shang survivors on Xinming Island. It is an unforgivable crime!"

Zhu Yujian understood in seconds—otherwise, how could he be the emperor, or how could he be able to rejuvenate Daming, let alone himself, even the vassal kings on Xinming Island are not enough to watch of!

"Xinming Island also has a fleet now, and there is no problem going to Spain through the Suez Canal." The smile on Emperor Chongzhen's face gradually became distorted: "Hang the people and punish crimes!"

"I will let the North and South Industrial Group rush to produce an additional batch of arms to support Xinming Island, and the North Sea Fleet and the East China Sea Fleet each dispatch a squadron to enter the combat order of the Xinming Island Fleet.

In addition to the officers and soldiers of Xinming Island itself, I will ask the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to allocate an additional six integrated combat readiness guards to enter the combat order of the Xinming Island Army.After taking Spain, it was distributed to the original Xinming Island vassals. "

It's so nice to say, why not let Xinming Island pay money and people to fight and grab territory...

Zhu Yujian didn't think he was stupid, and he could figure out all the twists and turns after thinking about it for a while, then Zhu Yujian bowed and said, "My lord, on behalf of the vassal kings of Xinming Island, thank you Your Majesty for your grace!"

No one can escape Wang Jingze's true fragrance law, and Zhu Yujian is no exception. Even though he knew that Emperor Chongzhen wanted to force these feudal lords to contribute money, effort, blood and sweat, he finally agreed happily.

There is no way if you don’t accept it. The domestic army is in the hands of the Taiwei, and the government is in the hands of the prime minister. These vassal kings themselves rule the entire vassal state in name, but in fact they just changed from a small pigsty to a farther and bigger one. It's just a pigsty. Once the Emperor Chongzhen is upset, the vassal kings like himself may be cold at any time.

Another reason is that Zhu Yujian, Zhu Cunshu, and Zhu Zhuohong felt a little regretful for not being able to fight against the Mughal barbarians back then.

After all, I made so many preparations at the beginning, I just waited to kill Mughal after going out to sea, and then everyone lined up to divide the territory, but a monster wind took them all to Xinming Island...

It's not bad to have this opportunity to toughen up the Spanish barbarians now.

After the promise was made, Zhu Yujian remembered his purpose of coming to the palace to beg to see Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I have one more matter, do you want to ask Your Majesty for your favor?"

Once again, the Emperor Chongzhen who was in a good mood smiled and said, "We are all a family. If you have anything to say to Uncle Wang, why don't you ask for it?"

This king doesn't want to be a family with you!

After cursing secretly in his heart, Zhu Yujian said: "I want to introduce railways to Xinming Island. Now the original steam engine trains on the island are used to transport goods, not to carry passengers.

Now it is convenient to transport goods, but people still travel on foot or by horse-drawn carts, ox carts and other means of transportation, which are far less convenient than trains.

If the trains could be deployed on Xinming Island, the people could also spread to more places, instead of gathering in the southeast of Xinming Island as they are now. "

Now it's Emperor Chongzhen's turn to be confused - Daming's current railway construction is between various state capitals, that is, stations will only be built in places where a large number of people live together.

According to Zhu Yujian's meaning, this is obviously an intention to repair the train station first, and then drive the people to move to the vicinity of the train station?

Do you want to play the set developed by the new city of later generations?

After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen still rejected Zhu Yujian's request: "Uncle Wang doesn't know something, this matter is really not something that can be agreed now."

Seeing the disappointment on Zhu Yujian's face, Emperor Chongzhen comforted him: "Of course I know the convenience of the train. In fact, the cabinet and the Ministry of Railways have already made plans to build the Xinming Island Railway."

Zhu Yujian was even more curious now.

Said that the cabinet and the Ministry of Railways would take Xinming Island into consideration and overhaul the railway on Xinming Island. Zhu Yujian believed that after all, Xinming Island was also the territory of Daming, and all the people there were the people of Daming.

But since the plan has been made, why hasn't there been any news, and why hasn't the construction started yet?

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Actually, the Ministry of Railways is now planning to upgrade the railways. The original rails can't bear the locomotives and carriages that have just been built, and the roadbed is prone to problems.

I believe that Uncle Wang must also understand that this kind of hundreds of thousands of kilometers of railway tracks will be demolished at will, and the impact is by no means small, and the time is even more of a problem.

So until now, the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Household Affairs are still arguing. Before the three parties understand the dispute, the railway construction of Xinming Island cannot be put on the agenda.After all, railways are easy to repair, but what about future upgrades? "

After sighing, Emperor Chongzhen simply said: "Forget it, I've said so much, it's better for Uncle Wang to watch tomorrow's court meeting. It will probably be another debate then."

The Great Court Meeting on the second day was indeed another debate as Emperor Chongzhen said.

Wu Ganlai stood there quietly, no matter how much Hong Chengchou tried to persuade him, he ended up with two words: "No money!"

In the face of Wu Ganlai who refused to enter the oil and salt, Hong Chengchou, who was originally not very good-tempered, was also angry: "Old Wu! My Ministry of Railways said that the application for rebuilding the railway was rejected by you, so forget it, but next year the budget will be increased by [-]% You still deny the matter, are you deceiving me that there is no one in the Ministry of Railways!?"

Wu Ganlai sneered before saying, "Application for rebuilding the railway? You, Hongbutang, have a reconstruction budget of millions. Why don't you move the national treasury to your Ministry of Railways?

Also, if you increase your budget by [-]% next year, do other people want to increase it?Fifty percent of the budget is not too much, or less is not too much. With a budget of one hundred million yuan, you let the treasury drink the northwest wind?
