Zhu Di and his ministers had not talked to each other for a long time.

In the Shuntian side, the Fuyao Hall is still firm in the midst of criticism. From the Spring Festival to the beginning of autumn, it has collected a lot of talents and continuously transported fresh blood to the workshops and military artifacts institutes at dusk.

In the evening of the layout of Shuntian, only Huawei Real Estate has achieved results. It has been building mud and brick buildings, while cement workshops, hydropower, ball mill research and development workshops, and steelmaking workshops are still constantly swallowing money.

Zhu Di deliberately understood before responding to the sky.

So Zhu Di didn't understand what the significance of these workshops that were invested in the dusk was. Times Commercial Bank could not last for a few years after swallowing money all day.

So this time, I also meant to ask about the matter of dusk.

I saw the evening come in to see the ceremony.

Zhu Di was given a seat and gave tea without gifts.

The emperor's measurement was not that Zhu Di did not doubt the layout of Dusk in Annan, but that he wanted to do so to relax Dusk's vigilance, so he did not intend to go straight to the point and said, "Can your time business hold on?"

After thinking about it, "If you rely solely on Times Commercial Bank, you will have capital flow problems until autumn begins. However, after Weichen returned to Yingtian, he sold dozens of sets of light artifacts, which would add up to hundreds of thousands of taels. In addition to the cost, there is also a large amount of capital surplus, which can be invested in Shuntian's workshop."

Thanks to Boss Zhu.

If Zhu Di didn't open the golden mouth, the wealthy and powerful people in Yingtian would not dare to buy human power generation and supporting facilities in such a large amount. The prince's East Palace was also because Zhu Di opened the mouth, so he dared to install that set of human power generation equipment.

This human power generation equipment is profitable.

The cost of a set is at most 1,000 taels, but the lowest price sold is 17,000 taels, and the average price is 20,000 taels, so there is no need to worry about funds during this period of time.

Of course, this is just an early layout.

In the later period, the entire prosperous area of ​​Yingtian would set up lines to build a city that never sleeps, but we had to wait for Shuntian's hydropower workshop to achieve results.

We have to wait for the cement workshop to develop cement.

If there is no cement, if you use stones to repair the dam, there are safety risks.

The embankment is not like a bridge.

It is a stone bridge like Zhaozhou Bridge that has lasted for thousands of years and is easy to repair.

But a dam that has been standing for hundreds of years is too risky to rely on stones alone. After all, the dam has to withstand the pressure of flood peaks and has a long flooding, so it is better to have steel and cement.

Zhu Di nodded.

To be honest, although he is the king of a country, he is still a little jealous of the means of making money, but he cannot do such shameless things. The money he earns in Dusk is a lot of subsidies for his political measures.

What's more, Shuntian's Huawei Real Estate and Fuyao Hall also took him to play with him.

Asked, "After this money is used up, if there is no results in cement workshops, ball mill workshops and steelmaking workshops, what do you do? Keep spending money inside?"

After being silent for a long time at dusk, he spit out a word: "Smash!"

How can industry not spend money?

Besides, this is something that has benefited generations, so what should be continued must be continued.

Zhu Di pondered for a while, "Times Business Company relies soap and shower gel alone to support your writing. Have you ever thought about this problem? If you can't make any results in the end, you will be poor overnight."

Times Commercial Bank's market in the Ming Dynasty was almost saturated.

And profits are falling again and again.

Nowadays, soaps, moisturizers, and shower gels have entered the homes of ordinary people, and only the royal family is expensive. They are more high-end, elegant and upscale, and the prices have also been reduced a lot.

The price drop means that Times Commercial Bank's profits are lower.

Huang Tun smiled, "Don't worry, when Zheng Dajian returns, I will also let Times Commercial Bank involve other industries, such as medicine and agriculture. Your Majesty, don't worry. I know the severity. The salt and iron part, especially salt, will never touch it without your nod, but the steel making part must be pleaded with your Majesty and give me more time."

It was already very generous for Zhu Di to allow himself to build a steelmaking workshop in Shuntian.

Salt and iron are untouchable national strategic industries.

Zhu Di nodded, "I know."

I thought about it, “What are you going to do in medicine and agriculture?”

Huang Tun smiled and said, "I want to get some vaccines to ensure the survival rate of my newborns in the Ming Dynasty. This can increase the population of the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, we must develop agriculture and ensure that the skyrocketing population can have a full meal."

Hybrid rice cannot be produced by itself.

However, sweet potatoes and potatoes can still be widely promoted, especially sweet potatoes. Unfortunately, there are no sweet potatoes in the Ming Dynasty, so we have to wait for Zheng Dajian to return to see if the ship caravan of Times Trading Company has obtained sweet potatoes.

Zhu Di was confused: "Vaccine?"

Dusk nodded, "Yes, it's vaccines, such as smallpox, which is a huge threat to newborns. If I can get a vaccine to prevent smallpox, what a merit, but it's a bit difficult. I still need to wait for time, talents, funds, and progress of the times."

Medical research and development is not that simple.

Overall progress in the industry is needed.

However, because I am now a father, Xun plans to promote the launch of this project as soon as possible and promote the development of related industries based on R&D needs. Isn’t it just a spend of money?

I have it!

Talent?

If the Fuyao Guild Hall is not enough, another building will be built in Yingtian. The most important thing is to see whether Zheng Dajian can bring back some medical talents from the West.

So you can first take a medical research tool project.

This requires the glass workshop on Lao Li Zhongshan to launch several projects.

Thinking of this, he sighed, "Although Weichen is rich, these things do require too much money. It is far from enough to rely solely on the current economy of the Ming Dynasty. Weichen uses the money earned in business to promote these things."

Zhu Di's eyes lit up, "Can smallpox be prevented?"

Xun smiled and said, "Of course."

He coughed, "In fact, it's not just smallpox, we can prevent many diseases, such as encephalopathy, etc. As long as someone has funds and corresponding technology, we can try to develop them."

Cerebral disease is polio.

In fact, these things are very difficult, they are completely cross-stage matters. The most urgent thing is to develop some antibiotics.

Zhu Di was silent for a long time, "It takes a lot of money."

At dusk, "So I need Gao Xianning to be the governor of Jiaozhi, I need the Times Commercial Bank to develop vigorously on Jiaozhi, so that I can use Jiaozhi's power to help our Ming Dynasty progress."

Zhu Di couldn't laugh or cry.

Today I am here to test your intention to place Gao Xianning in Jiaozhi. Now, you have found an excuse and actually want to push Gao Xianning to the position of Jiaozhi Governor General.

It's a bit awkward.

Not angry either.

Mainly, what the Dusk said really moved Zhu Di. What is the main symbol of a country's strength: population.

Moreover, Zhu Di knew very well that if he wanted to attack Mobei and Yilibali, he would inevitably have to increase his troops. This required population growth, but how to maintain population growth?

Economics are a factor, and another factor is the survival rate of young children. Smallpox, encephalopathy and various other diseases are all constraints on the survival rate of young children.

And there is food.

If dusk can solve these two problems and the population of the Ming Dynasty skyrockets, what if Jiaozhi is given to him?!

etc!

Zhu Di suddenly realized that he should not forget the serious business.
Chapter completed!
