"The cannons need to be cast well and trial-making is naturally made in the middle. The salary of craftsmen is indispensable, which is a huge consumption."

Emperor Hongzhi's face was gloomy and sunny, and the three Grand Secretary's faces were also bright and dark.

But Mr. Zhang bowed to Emperor Hongzhi and sighed: "This is also why the kid is currently preparing..."

"After all, this matter is about the foundation of the empire and needs to form a certain ability to operate itself. Otherwise, even if you can only get started now..."

"It will eventually die..."

Emperor Hongzhi gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly for a while: "If I invest million taels a year, how long will it take to accomplish something?"

The three great masters couldn't help but feel disbelief when they heard Emperor Hongzhi's words. Damn! The emperor is going to pay off his old capital!

"Crazy Hu'er, I'm going to talk about the issue in person from the Ministry of Revenue! At least 10% of the treasury will be taken out every year. You just need to say how long it will take to accomplish something!"

This time Mr. Zhang was a little surprised. Emperor Hongzhi gritted his teeth and threw the money.

Now, the old guy Liu Jian has also come forward and said that he would personally discuss with the Ministry of Revenue and take out the money to support the matter.

This is very rare.

"Of course the support of Your Majesty and you three are important, but it is not enough to use the internal treasury and national treasury."

Just kidding, who is my little master Zhang?! He was also a well-known figure in his previous life, although he was not particularly awesome.

But at least I dare not say too much about our area, and the top 50 personal assets in the province can still be included.

If you had to do this a few hundred years ago, you would have to burn money and you would have no money to earn...

Mr. Zhang felt that he was just shit!

"This... this is the new farmhouse you built for your Zhangjiazhuang merchants?!"

Emperor Hongzhi took the three great scholars to look at the small rural villas in front of him in amazement, including front and back yards and roads in front of the door.

The young master curled his lips in disgust and expressed his extreme disdain for Emperor Hongzhi and the local beggars of the third great scholar: "Otherwise?!"

To be honest, it is normal for Emperor Hongzhi and others to be scared.

After all, Mr. Zhang’s design and planning for the new Zhangjiazhuang was transformed based on a beautiful rural project he had handled before.

What is the basic foundation of the Lao Zhang family?! It’s not much money, not much mansion, land, shop industry...

Instead, these loyal soldiers living in Zhangjiazhuang and following the old Zhang family’s life and death, they are the foundation of the old Zhang family.

Others don’t know that the old Duke has made a secret talk with his grandson, and these old people cannot treat them unfairly.

For many years and generations, you have followed your father’s father and father to fight on the battlefield.

The British Duke's Mansion in the village is almost never charged, and even if the village has a difficult life, it will give rice and silver to help you live.

Therefore, the first batch of benefits of the young master is to let the people in Zhangjiazhuang enjoy it first and pay close attention to the money earning first.

The child is practicing martial arts and studying and eating meat and eggs. The young master is never stingy when he earns money.

Now that he has earned money, Mr. Zhang has not only bought all the nearby land, but also wanted to expand the Zhangjiazhuang.

To be honest, from Mr. Zhang’s perspective, the planning is really bad!

So the money from the carriage came out this time, and the first batch of craftsmen arrived and tried the local cement.

Rebuilding a Zhangjiazhuang that suits his wishes was naturally put on the agenda.

Since we are going to build a new village, the first thing the young master considers is the drainage and sewage discharge system.

The earliest drainage system excavated in China was the Peiligang cultural site around 5,000 BC.

But that is just an extremely simple drainage system connected to the house, which can achieve drainage effect to a certain extent.

If drainage pipes are used, it will be the Longshan cultural site that has been around for more than 2,000 BC.

Under the road surface of the south gate of the ancient city of the ruins, a ceramic pipeline with drainage was excavated.

These pipe openings actually have mortise devices that can be connected to each other.

To this day, more than 5m of pipes have been preserved and displayed in the ruins museum.

From that time on, to the Han and Tang Dynasties, ceramic drainage pipes, drainage channels, drainage culverts, etc. were used together to form an urban drainage system.

Therefore, since Mr. Zhang is building a new village for his family, he naturally needs to consider these things. The first thing is to dig up the ground and consolidate it.

Then it is required to create a flat and lay blue bricks, then seal it with cement and finally be a ceramic drainage pipe connected by a piece of mortise and mouth.

On the main road, two four-wheeled carriages can walk side by side, and two people can pass through the free road side by side.

Even the alley you turn into can pass a carriage, and there is still plenty of surplus.

Small yards can be seen vaguely through the yard wall.

The three great masters didn't know that the young master had built Zhuangzi, so the first person to know about this was Emperor Hongzhi.

Because the newly established Royal Ordnance Construction Bureau of the Ming Empire naturally wanted to report this matter. Originally, Emperor Hongzhi asked the young master to be responsible for the construction bureau.

But the young master instantly showed his lazy part: he was beaten to death and refused to take office.

Moreover, the reasons were only sufficient, which made Emperor Hongzhi helpless.

The young master said: The power of the state cannot hold the hand of one person, and this should be a law that can last forever.

All these words are said, what else can Emperor Hongzhi say?!

So the middle-aged official Miao Kui was sent to take charge of all matters in the Royal Ordnance Construction Bureau.

But he ordered him to only wear eyes, ears, and mouths! He must not interfere with all the decisions of the young master.

What Emperor Hongzhi didn't know was that the young master said to Zhengde in private:

Why did I do all of my work?! I gave me all my work, and my salary was not as good as my dividends. I didn’t do it!

"I told Your Majesty before that the Ordnance Construction Bureau needs to be able to have the ability to produce oneself and even feed back."

But I saw Mr. Zhang leading Emperor Hongzhi and the three great masters strolling in this new Zhangjiazhuang, walking along the way.

"Now that the Construction Bureau has started, the Ministry of Transportation has undertaken the construction of military vehicles and civilian vehicles and Sanfang vehicles."

"Only the three civilians can not only support themselves and all the craftsmen from the Ministry of Education, but also make daily expenses. It can be considered that a civilian car can benefit from three taels."

When the young master said this, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly realized that this is the right way to operate the department!

If the Ministry of Equity Transfer was in accordance with the previous practice of the Ministry of Works, it would definitely only build military vehicles. After the construction, the craftsmen below would have to work hard and live hard.

However, Chihu'er first found a living for them to ensure that they could produce self-raising and then develop.

This approach is similar to the Taizu period when various garrisons were stationed in the military farming process.

But Chihu'er's approach has gone further, allowing craftsmen to engage in profitable industries that can not only support themselves but also supply the military and internal warehouses.
