Chapter 1939: The Future of Ming Dynasty (Thanks to 'Cong Lin' For Becoming the New Leader of This Book)
Neurasthenia is a chronic disease, and it is difficult to eliminate it.
This bug can turn a normal person into a lunatic!
Of course Fang Xing didn't want to be a lunatic, but he also didn't want to let this problem worsen the impact on his body.
Of course, Wuyou is his pistachio and little padded jacket. Whenever he sees Wuyou, he always smiles unconsciously, so that Tudou and Pingan murmur behind his back, saying that his father is stern when he sees them. He smiled when he saw Wuyou, the two sons were not his own.
"Father, you are not happy."
Wuyou put his arms around Fang Xing's neck and asked based on a child's intuition.
Fang Xing was wandering around the yard with her in his arms, the two big dogs had run out and gone mad, Zhang Shuhui and Xiaobai were invited by Mo Chou to a party at Shenxianju, Tudou and Ping An were in class, and they were the only father and daughter left at home.
Fang Xing was a little distracted, he let out an ah when he heard the words, and then said: "No, Dad is happy!"
Wuyou pouted and said: "Father, you are lying."
"I didn't lie to you, your mother and the others went to have fun, we father and son...how about going out for a walk?"
"Okay, okay! Dad, go now, go now!"
Both Zhang Shuhui and Xiaobai noticed that Fang Xing's mental state was not right, so they left Wuyou at home to accompany him before going out.
The father and daughter tidied up a bit, then went out to call Shang Jia Ding, got on the horse and left Fangjiazhuang.
...
Zhu Zhanji was also a little anxious. He didn't know what he was expecting Hu Shanxiang to have, a boy? That almost meant that the Sun family had no chance.
Regardless of the various disadvantages of civil servants in Ming Dynasty, when it comes to maintaining tradition, especially righteousness, they can always show a different kind of impassionedness than usual.
As long as Hu Shanxiang gave birth to a prince, the difficulty of the Sun family's attempt to take over would be really desperate.
Hu's wife is his wife, but Sun's is his love. Righteousness and affection are intertwined, and Zhu Zhanji is also uncomfortable.
The closer the delivery was, the more irritable Zhu Zhanji's mood became.
There are already some fragments of cups in the hall, and even Yu Jia is avoiding them,
I'm afraid that Zhu Zhanji will pour his anger on himself.
"Go out and walk around!"
Zhu Zhanji felt that the palace was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.
Taking a few guards with him, Zhu Zhanji quietly left the imperial city.
But the news in the palace is so well-informed that the Queen Mother knew his whereabouts as soon as he left.
"Hey! Let him go, it's good to relax."
...
After leaving Fangjiazhuang, Wuyou was very happy. Along the way, he directed Fang Xing's direction from time to time, and finally the father and daughter found a place by the river.
After playing by the river for a while, Fang Xing saw that it was getting late, so he returned with Wuyou.
"Father, shall we come again next time?"
The river is clear and the grass is green. This summer is good.
"Come, come when you are free."
Fang Xing dozed off a little, but Wuyou yawned a little after that, and fell asleep slowly in his arms.
"My lord, it's Your Majesty."
Not long after returning to the main road, Xin Laoqi saw Zhu Zhanji with a gloomy face.
Zhu Zhanji also saw Fang Xing, he pointed at Wuyou, and then said with a smile: "You are free and easy, and you are wandering around with Wuyou."
Fang Xing felt embarrassed, so he said casually, "It's just for relaxing, what are you doing here?"
There was a moment of silence between the two, and Shen Shitou led the people back a little.
In the end it was Fang Xing who broke the deadlock, he whispered: "Since you're all bored, why don't you go to my house for a drink?"
Zhu Zhan basically had no goals, and nodded when he heard the words: "Is there any good food?"
The familiar feeling came back gradually, Fang Xing said with a smile: "His Royal Highness brought back a lot of strange dried meat, and some dragon meat, which tastes good."
...
Back home, Fang Xing put Wuyou back to sleep after waking up, and then went to the study.
In the study, Zhu Zhanji was looking at the big map hanging on the wall.
"Is this where Uncle Hanwang went?"
"Yes, after His Royal Highness went down, the map has been modified, and the distance should be very accurate."
Zhu Zhanji turned back and asked: "There are only some natives there, and most of them are from the countries in the South China Sea. That is to say, there is currently no land there, right?"
"That's right."
Fang Xing beckoned, and Chun Sheng who was waiting outside hurried in with a food box, and then placed the food and wine on the desk.
The two sat down, Zhu Zhanji looked at the meat and frowned: "What kind of meat are they?"
In the palace, his meals are supervised by special personnel, and he tastes them after they are ready. Naturally, Fang Xing doesn't need this set of procedures here, but he is worried that some strange meat will enter his stomach.
Fang Xing pointed to the five plates on the table, and introduced: "The one in front of you is bison meat, the one next to it is kangaroo meat, dragon meat, this is a kind of big bird meat, and the last one is... snake meat. "
Zhu Zhanji struggled and said: "The front is okay, but what does this snake meat mean?"
Fang Xing took a piece of snake meat and ate it, and said, "There are a lot of poisonous snakes over there. Some of His Royal Highness' subordinates died of poisonous snakes. He was furious, and led his subordinates to clear out the poisonous snakes in that area. It is said that dried snake meat A whole cabin."
Zhu Zhanji ate a piece of bison meat and thought it tasted good, so he asked, "Are there a lot of beasts over there?"
"many."
Fang Xing pointed to the dragon meat, motioned Zhu Zhanji to eat more, and then said: "It's not smaller than the Central Plains, but there are only a few natives living there. Think about how many resources are not being used?"
"Beasts can only cause trouble. What is the greatest resource?"
Zhu Zhanji is not the kind of emperor who waits for "why not eat minced meat". He is keenly aware that it is still in a barbaric state, which is very unfavorable to immigrants.
"grassland."
Fang Xing said with some embarrassment: "There are mines over there, but the biggest resource right now is the grassland. No matter what you feed there, such as cattle and sheep, the price of meat in Daming will drop accordingly."
"Is it that big?"
The Ming Dynasty did not inherit the mistakes of the former Song Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang drove the Mengyuan people out of the Great Wall all the way, and the Ming Dynasty finally had some places to raise horses.
But the desire for the prairie is still the obsession of the kings of all dynasties, and it was not until the defeat of the two powerful enemies on the prairie that the Ming Dynasty no longer lacked land for raising horses.
"Yes, there is no problem raising cattle and sheep in those places. It is guaranteed that the people of Ming Dynasty can afford beef and mutton, and each generation will become stronger."
Zhu Zhanji ate a piece of beef, and sighed: "In the past, cattle were not allowed to be killed. Now that the grassland has surrendered, the people below are sneaking in cattle. I have received many reports, but I just pretend I don't know."
Most of the reports to Zhu Zhanji were aimed at those honored officials.
Fang Xing said nonchalantly: "Cows and sheep are good things, and we can breed some long-haired sheep in the future. As for cows, think about it, cows can produce milk. If Daming's children can drink milk and eat beef and mutton every day, they will be fine. To put it bluntly, after fifty years, the bodies of the common people of Ming Dynasty will probably become the strongest in the world."
"With a strong body and proper education, who can beat such a common people?"
Fang Xing bewitched, "Moreover, the sea area over there produces a lot. As long as it develops, it can support many people. If someone beats it...that place is not too far from Daming!"
Zhu Zhanji nodded, then took a sip of wine and tasted every kind of meat.
"It is indeed a place with rich output, but it is difficult to control, but you can't give up eating because of choking."
With Zhu Zhanji's words, he confirmed that expanding land abroad has become a national policy. Fang Xing was very happy, so he toasted frequently.
After the two were slightly drunk, Zhu Zhanji glanced outside the door, and said lightly: "The queen is about to give birth, and the imperial doctor said that it will be tomorrow instead of today."
