1011 Shipbuilding

Xiao Ruxun felt that her time was getting less and less than enough.

I don't know if all emperors have such troubles.

Not only should we resume production and construction, but we should also carry out a political storm. While helping Yuan Huang provide supplies to build the Dachi Road, we should also arrest members of the Zhu Ming royal family who had a greater influence in the local area. They were also tourists from afar. They also had to prevent North Korea from doing things, and even maritime transportation and maritime transportation departments. Finally, we should give Yuan Yan a face-to-face opportunity.

The task he assigned to Yuan Yan was to build ships and build many large sea ships. For now, he not only needed to vigorously expand the navy, but also needed a large number of sea merchant ships. For the upcoming era of sailing belonging to the Qin Dynasty, Xiao Ruxun must be fully prepared.

"All kinds of ships must be equipped. This year, at least one hundred sea boats are needed to be launched. You are enough staff and you don't lack wood. Luzon's position is very good. You must grasp it well. If you complete the task perfectly, you will make great contributions to the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty."

Yuan Yan expressed obedience to Xiao Ruxun's appointment.

"I will do my best to do what Your Majesty has delivered."

Xiao Ruxun nodded.

He trusted Yuan Yan, otherwise he would not have handed over Luzon to him during the Myanmar period. Although he has the world, Luzon is still a very important place. If he handed over it to Yuan Yan, he would not find a suitable replacement. Otherwise, Yuan Yan could be transferred back to be in charge of the shipping and maritime department.

So Xiao Ruxun also hopes to explain the matter more clearly and not let Yuan Yan feel alienated.

"I don't say too much about some things, but I hope you understand that you are one of the few people I can truly trust and entrust great things. Although Luzon is far away from the Central Plains and is not a developed place, the importance of Luzon is self-evident to the Qin Dynasty.

I will place you in Myanmar to build ships and reclaim wastelands, concentrate the descendants of Chinese in Southeast Asia, and will organize some immigrants to live in Luzon in the future, and firmly control Luzon. In the future, Luzon will have greater uses.

And if I could find someone who could replace you, I would transfer you back to take charge of the maritime transportation and maritime affairs. But now I really can't find someone who can compare with you, so I can only temporarily feel wronged that you are doing business in Luzon."

"Your Majesty is very grateful for your respect for me. Your Majesty will strictly abide by your wishes and will never disappoint you!"

Yuan Yan's mind was calm, so there was nothing to say.

To put it bluntly, after Xiao Ruxun became emperor, he was a little worried that he would be alienated from Xiao Ruxun, so he took this opportunity to come to the capital to meet Xiao Ruxun and ask about his future. More importantly, see how his father is in.

My father Yuan Huang could not forgive Xiao Ruxun for his actions, so he refused to be an official in the court. Yuan Yan also knew about it, so at first he was worried that Xiao Ruxun would be dissatisfied with him.

He was in favor of Xiao Ruxun's ascension to the throne and becoming the emperor. His loyalty to Xiao Ruxun was not inferior to his father. Like Chen Longzheng, he had long been impressed. He was very worried about his father's actions. If he made a choice in the face of loyalty and filial piety, he would be very painful.

However, the compromise between his father and Xiao Ruxun relaxed a little.

He learned that his father was willing to build a great road for the world, and Xiao Ruxun no longer pursued Yuan Huang's unwillingness to support him, and was as close to Yuan Yan as ever.

Yuan Yan came here to live with the most delicious food and rewards, which made Yuan Yan a little uneasy.

However, he didn't need to worry at all. Xiao Ruxun just felt guilty towards Yuan Huang, hoping that some compensation to Yuan Yan could be considered as compensation to Yuan Huang.

Yuan Yan was not clear about this, so he still planned to ask Xiao Ruxun what he thought of Yuan Huang.

"Rossi, don't worry about these."

Seeing Yuan Yan's doubts and worries, Xiao Ruxun explained to him in a gentle voice: "You father and son and Chen Long are the three earliest literati under my command, and they are also the only literati who were willing to support me at that time. Your status in my heart is different from others.

You can do what others cannot do, and I cannot tolerate other people's affairs, and it will become different for you. Mr. Yuan is indispensable to me. Without Mr. Yuan, there would be no me today. Although Mr. Yuan cannot understand me, I will not be angry, nor will I take my anger on you. Don't worry."

After receiving Xiao Ruxun’s personal promise, Yuan Yan finally felt relieved.

"I accuse my father of your crimes."

"It's okay."

Xiao Ruxun waved his hand: "Europe's French and Genoa envoys came to Daqin together. If you want to do business with Daqin, this sea ship is extremely needed. We need a large number of sea ships to sell porcelain for gold, and even more, there are enough warships, so that we can keep our gold. You have a great responsibility, Ruosie, don't let me down."

Yuan Yan knelt on the ground and thanked Xiao Ruxun for his trust.

At present, in addition to Tianjin Wei, Xiao Ruxun also gathered people to establish a shipyard in Lingshan Wei in Laizhou Prefecture, Jinshan Wei in Songjiang Prefecture and Guanhaiwei in Ningbo Prefecture.

In addition to the Myanmar Shipyard and Luzon Shipyard, there are a total of six shipyards. Xiao Ruxun's demand for sea ships made the court officials secretly shocked, not knowing what kind of waves the emperor planned to cause on the sea.

But they knew very well that the construction of these six major shipyards, especially the establishment of the four major shipyards in Lingshan Wei Jinshan Weiguan Haiwei Tianjin Wei, attracted a large number of surrounding populations. As shipmakers, working for the court, and taking the court's wages also stimulated local development.

Some people have the need for food, clothing, housing and transportation, houses, clothes, food and shoes. These places are also areas that will be open to the public in the future. So Xiao Ruxun ordered the state and county governments that manage these four regions to issue government orders to encourage the people to do small business.

In the name of the government, loan principal is provided to people who are willing to do small businesses, and extremely low interest is stipulated, so that ordinary people with surplus labor can borrow money to do small businesses, such as stalls for eating and drinking and stores selling some shoddy clothes and shoes.

At the same time, Xiao Ruxun also allocated funds to the local government, stipulating that the local government should renovate cities around the shipyard within the prescribed time limit, build enough houses, and rent or sell them to local people at a relatively low price.

In this way, we will drive the economies of these places, make them the main population settlements in the future, and form corresponding radiation to the surrounding areas, attract more people to come here, develop a maritime economy, and reduce people's demand and dependence on land.

In order to accomplish these things, Xiao Ruxun has invested a lot of money, but in the foreseeable future, the demand for such investment will not decrease.
