Chapter 336: My Wish Fulfilled, Yue-Type Heavy Artillery(1/2)
"Dangdangdang~~" The yamen runners beat the gong in the street, shouting: "Dear neighbors to go on blind dates, the Ministry of Justice will start trial in the afternoon in three days!"
The blind dates of the people in the capital heard the sound of gongs and saw the yamen runners raising their heads and yelling loudly.
"All corrupt officials in the dynasty have been corrupt and slanderous businessmen who have soared the price of grain this time, will be sentenced according to the law in the street!!"
This made the people in the capital below feel uproar. It has been a long time since then.
Finally, we have to start dealing with these traitors.
The big guys in the capital are now busy making money and almost forget about this.
But no one expected that the verdict was announced on the street, which seemed to be the same as the last time the city foxes and rats were arrested.
Below are some readers who think about it. Could it be that this time it was also the work of Yu Chihu...
"boom!!"
A loud bang came from afar outside the capital, but the people were only slightly scared but no one panicked.
Everyone has gotten used to this period of time, and from time to time, huge explosions roars will come from the suburbs.
When we first started, we were very panicked, but later we got used to it a few more times.
"Oh oh oh ~ Your Majesty has tried again!"
Then the young man was ready to rub his hands at the yamen runner and asked, "Brother, my empire is making so many cannons to fight Tatars?"
"I guess I'm going to fight. Mr. Zhang almost suffered a loss last time!"
The yamen runner said unfairly: "Fortunately the old duke arrived, otherwise we would have suffered a great loss from the grain merchant this time!"
The people nodded after hearing this. The Jade Chihu helped the nobles earn a lot of money and had a good reputation.
Naturally, everyone knows that the "Royal Charity Association for the World and the People" suggested to the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces.
In addition, during this price increase in grain traders, please ask His Majesty and the nobles to revive the capital as the hands of the jade dragon and tiger.
Besides, isn’t the fight between Jade Chihu and Tatars just to protect the victims?!
This is a good man!
"Spit~! I'll tell the old man to kill them all. Your Majesty has trained his troops and beat the Tatars, and we'll live a peaceful life."
Emperor Hongzhi has no intention of dealing with the Tatars now. The latest news about the factory guards is now killing the Tatars.
Almost all the pigs' brains are sucked into dogs' brains, and several of them are still wondering whether to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty.
So Emperor Hongzhi doesn't care about the Tatars at all now. He is staring at the cannon with his eyes fixed on it.
These three words are just echoing in my mind: Success!!
The giant cannon was placed smoothly under the heavy base, and its position did not even move much.
Under the scorching sun, the bright alloy bronze cannon with a slightly golden color shines brightly.
The blue smoke floating from the muzzle was so light and the wind was light. The city walls marked "Five Miles" on the mountaintops were blown down tragically.
The master craftsmen have already begun to direct the auxiliary craftsmen to sprinkle oil on the cannon to cool down, and after the temperature drops, they begin to tap the cannon body carefully.
Check if there are cracks or damage to the inside of the barrel. If it appears, then there is a problem with the casting gun.
Emperor Hongzhi slowly took off his earmuffs and breathed a deep breath.
The recent government affairs were basically handed over to the three great ministers, and the ministers of each department were dealing with them, and all his thoughts were placed on this artillery.
As early as when the 23,000-pound heavy artillery was cast, the 30,000-pound mold had been made.
Even the oil sand core has been accumulated, regardless of whether the 23,000 kilograms are successful or not, this cannon casting method has been considered feasible.
Therefore, during this period, Emperor Hongzhi stayed in the foundry every day after watching the 23,000 kilograms of cannon tests.
When this heavy cannon of 30,000 kilograms was created, Emperor Hongzhi, who had not returned to the palace all night, was excited for the first time!
Although he had not been asleep all night, Emperor Hongzhi was still energetic. He took the reins handed by Xiao Jing and did not rush to the city wall.
What he is more concerned about now is that cannon, that giant cannon!
He rushed to the front of the giant cannon with a war horse, and dozens of masters' inspection cannons had been completed.
"how?!"
Emperor Hongzhi did not disturb the masters' inspection, and asked in a low voice when they saw that they had finished the inspection.
"If you go back to your Majesty, the artillery will be normal!"
The masters have become accustomed to these days, and Emperor Hongzhi never puts on airs with them.
"Just take another quarter of an hour to get another shot!"
But whenever this master mentioned the cannon, his eyes shone!
"The little old man promises that he is still the same accuracy! He fires ten more guns, and the accuracy remains unchanged!"
"Hahahaha... OK! OK!"
Emperor Hongzhi smiled at the sky and said two good words in succession: "Thank you all for your hard work! From now on, you will also be the rank of a national minister!!"
"Looking back, I will ask someone to agree on the constitution and report it to you! All the officials will be ministers of the empire in the future!"
Don’t look at Emperor Hongzhi’s current smile on the surface, but actually shed tears in her heart!
Since seeing the Dardanelles, the fear of genocide and extermination has surrounded his head and it is difficult to dissipate.
He himself couldn't remember how many nights he couldn't sleep, so he got up in his robe and went to the imperial study room.
I was stunned when I looked at the tracing of the Dardanelles giant cannon. The ancestors' country has been passed down for hundreds of fifty years and the Chinese literary tradition has lasted for thousands of years.
If it is broken in his hands, how should we meet the ancestors and ancestors behind us!
It’s just that I’m worried about this matter, but it’s not too late to be in the country inside and outside.
The earth dragon turned over and the disaster victims were mourning everywhere, but fortunately, the two men of the foolish tiger son and grandson were both pillars of the empire.
The battle between the front and back was considered to be a judging this matter, and by the way, the royal reputation has increased several times among the people.
After finally having a result, Emperor Hongzhi planned to concentrate on building cannons.
Unexpectedly, the Hanlins colluded with court officials again, and the grain merchants tried to disrupt the chaos!
If it weren't for Chihu'er's predictions about this, she would have allowed money to transport the food back to Yizhou, and let her disciples buy grain in Jiangnan.
And let the two palaces unite with the nobles in the court and punish these treacherous people with one hand.
I don’t know what changes will happen to this empire!
Thinking of those people who were willing to raise the price of grain to fifteen taels per stone, or even the market was stopped...
Emperor Hongzhi was so angry that he wanted to kill all of them and let it go.
However, what Chihu'er said makes sense. These people cannot die! It will be useless if they die.
What they and their nine tribes should do is to work for the empire. What should Yizhou do if there is so shortage of people?!
They will do it! Otherwise, what's the point of asking them?! Even if they die, they will be more valuable than being beheaded on the construction site?!
Even if they were so tired that they only dug ten taels of gold on the construction site, it would be more useful than just chopping their heads?!
Emperor Hongzhi felt that this statement was very beneficial, and even thought that the empire would cancel the beheading in the future.
All of them were changed to mining and reclamation of land. At least I had to die on the construction site and on the fields.
"Little old man...Little old man..." The master craftsman couldn't help but his eyes were straight when he heard this.
My mouth was so excited that I shivered. It’s an official body! This is an official body!
Even if they said they had an official position in the palace in the past, they were actually just verbal official position!
If you commit suicide, you will be a real official. This is amazing, amazing!
"Don't call yourself a 'little old man', you should call yourself an 'old minister'!"
But when the old craftsman cried out, he saw that the old man from the craftsman cried out, and his whole body crawled and bowed, and his voice trembled.
"Old ministers, please... thank your Majesty for your kindness!!"
The masters also burst into tears and bowed and said loudly: "I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness!"
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but feel emotion when he looked at these masters, look at how simple they are!
I said I would be happy if I wanted to give them an official position. Those damn dogs criticized the children of Confucian scholars and famous teachers!
I gave them official positions and turned around and was shocked. The archways were tall and the righteousness was so great.
Then the learning was even more casual, but he ended up being a person and not doing anything!
"Everyone gets up! Get up!"
Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand and walked into the cannon with still warm remaining fire. The look at the cannon was similar to the time his son looked at it.
"If you build it with all your might, how many cannons can you cast in a month?"
Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's question, the old craftsman who had just stood up from the ground immediately patted his chest and said.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, as long as the materials are recharged, the old minister will make a few more sets of molds! Teach the craftsmen and the assistants carefully..."
To be continued...
