The powerful people in the entire capital are a network of relationships, and many powerful people have in-laws. Once they join forces to deal with Guo Zhiyuan, Guo Zhiyuan will have a headache. This is not as good as when Guo Zhiyuan was in the East China, the emperor was far away. So when Guo Zhiyuan was in the East China, he dared to fight Zhu Gongzi, the prince of King of Zhou, in order to save Leng Xianning. But now Guo Zhiyuan is in the capital, which is equivalent to being in the middle of this network of relationships. If he does this recklessly, he will not be able to do so.

Seeing that Guo Zhiyuan frowned and did not speak, Zheng Guozhu knew that he had made trouble, so he advised: "Sir, this capital is not as complicated as a place, and the relationship is complicated. Let's talk about our Ministry of Works. Among the officials at all levels, the disciples of the Pavilion Master, the same year as the Shangshu, the relatives of the prince, and the brother-in-law of the imperial envoy, there are many people. The lower officials know that the adults are determined to reform and eliminate evil, but they still can't do it recklessly. If it is hard, it is easy to break, so they can only slowly... "

Guo Zhiyuan waved his hand and said in a deep voice in an unquestionable tone: "I must investigate it to the end! The Military Weapon Bureau is a country's important weapon, so how can these big rats extend their hands freely? Lord Zheng also saw the current situation of the Military Weapon Bureau. If there is no thunder method, how can we shock these people who dare to extend their hands to the Military Weapon Bureau? This official not only needs to investigate, but also reorganize the Military Weapon Bureau, and expand the scale of the Military Weapon Bureau ten times, so that the Military Weapon Bureau will become a real national heavy weapon!..."

Zheng Guozhu was stunned and said in a daze: "Grand... sir, to expand the scale of the military weapon bureau ten times?! This... the silver... the silver... the silver... is not a small amount, such as... the treasury is empty now, and even the military pay cannot be allocated on time. Where does this silver... the silver come from?..."

This is another headache for Guo Zhiyuan. Although Dongfan is rich, he cannot use Dongfan's money to fill the deficit in the military weapon bureau. This will only drag down Dongfan. He is not so arrogant that he can fill this bottomless pit by his own efforts. Even if he really pays for his own money, it will only be thankless, making people suspect that he has ulterior motives.

Therefore, to reorganize the Military Weapon Bureau, it is necessary to make the Military Weapon Bureau have self-sufficient profitability. As the saying goes, it is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. Only when the Military Weapon Bureau has self-sufficient profitability can it enter the track of healthy development. In this way, even if Guo Zhiyuan leaves the Ministry of Works, the Military Weapon Bureau can continue to develop.

Guo Zhiyuan had actually made a general plan before coming to this point, and was preparing to refer to some practices of modern military-industrial enterprise restructuring to let the Military Equipment Bureau participate in the civil manufacturing field, because the greatest value of the Military Equipment Bureau lies in the brand "Military Equipment Bureau". Just like for modern military-industrial enterprises, the people will have a sense of trust in excellent quality, so it is easy to form a brand effect. With the brand effect, it is easy to make money.

Guo Zhiyuan is preparing to use the production technology of the four-wheeled carriage as intangible assets to inject it into the Military Bureau. The four-wheeled carriage can not only be used for military material transportation, but also for civilian fields. Before, Guo Zhiyuan authorized the manufacturing technology of the four-wheeled carriage to Sun Chuan's carriage, but the influence of the carriage is limited after all, so the four-wheeled carriage is only used in the southern region and has not been promoted nationwide. Now, with the golden signboard of the Military Bureau, it will be different. It will definitely be able to promote the four-wheeled carriage nationwide.

This is like many modern military enterprises can quickly turn losses into profits. What's more, Guo Zhiyuan doesn't have to worry about competition at all. As long as the four-wheeled carriage manufacturing technology is used as military technology, the Military Weapon Bureau can easily achieve monopoly. If the Military Weapon Bureau can't make money in this way, it's a hell!

But the biggest problem now is that Guo Zhiyuan's idea is too advanced. Even in modern times, the reform of military-industrial enterprises has encountered great resistance in the field of civilian manufacturing, not to mention that such reforms were implemented in the Ming Dynasty. Guo Zhiyuan could imagine that as long as he put forward this idea, he would be criticized by ministers in the court.

Just then, Guo Zhiyuan just tentatively mentioned this idea to Zheng Guozhu. Zheng Guozhu was shocked and quickly persuaded him: "Sir, never! Since ancient times, the country has not competed for profit with the people. It is too shocking to do this. The court will never allow it!..."

Guo Zhiyuan frowned and retorted: "How come this is competing for profit with the people? Ordinary people cannot afford carriages. Those who can afford carriages are the powerful and wealthy businessmen. These people are unkind to be rich and earn money from them to subsidies for military weapons bureaus, which benefit the country and the people. Why can't it be done?..."

Zheng Guozhu didn't know how to refute Guo Zhiyuan, but he still shook his head repeatedly and smiled bitterly: "The official knows that the Lord is for the sake of the country, but the ministers in the court will not think so. Although the Lord is the Minister of Works, such a major event cannot be decided by the Lord. It must be submitted to the court for approval. Not to mention that the cabinet is not approved, even the Lord Shangshu will never agree to the Lord!..."

Guo Zhiyuan patted his forehead with a headache. Yes, after all, he is not the top leader of the Ministry of Works, and he will inevitably be restrained when doing things. Even in modern times, if you want to implement a beneficial reform measure, if you don’t get the support of the top leader, you will definitely not be able to succeed in the end!

Thinking of this, Guo Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly lit up. Top leader! Who is the top leader of this era? Emperor! As long as he can convince Emperor Tianqi to agree to his plan, his idea of ​​reorganizing the Military Weapon Bureau can be implemented! Moreover, with the support of Emperor Tianqi, he doesn't have to worry that the powerful people in the capital will cause trouble for him!

Guo Zhiyuan jumped up excitedly and told Zheng Guozhu: "Sir Zheng, you can stare here first, I will go out..." After saying that, he left Zheng Guozhu, who was stunned, without looking back!

When he got on the carriage, Guo Zhiyuan hurried to the palace, thinking along the way how to convince Emperor Aoqi. Although Emperor Aoqi trusts himself more now, if he directly told him about the reorganization of the Military Weapon Bureau, Emperor Aoqi would probably not agree. Even if he agreed now, the ministers would collectively oppose him at that time, Emperor Aoqi would not continue to support himself unswervingly with the pressure of the ministers' collective opposition. Instead, he would have a bad impression of himself and think that he had used his trust in him, and the effect would be counterproductive!

The only way is to find a way to bring Emperor Aoqi to the scene of the Military Weapon Bureau, let him understand the current bad situation of the Military Weapon Bureau and understand that if the Military Weapon Bureau is allowed to continue to be corrupt like this, the Emperor Aoqi will willingly support himself unswervingly withstand the pressure of collective opposition from the ministers!
