After Lao Zhu's injection of chicken blood, Xu Da and Li Wenzhong blushed on the spot. Li Wenzhong screamed excitedly, shouting that he would expand another three thousand miles for the Ming Dynasty. It doesn't matter whether he can grant the title of prince or king, the main thing is that he must

The glory of the Han people is spread to the horizon. It is best to build all the grasslands with Han people's cities like the Guan Nei, so as to permanently eliminate the trouble of the Northern Captives for the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Da also expressed his loyalty and expressed his willingness to continue to serve the Ming Dynasty and his great emperor. Lao Zhu asked everyone present not to leak the matter, and the subsequent talks continued smoothly in a harmonious atmosphere until several

After an hour, Xu Da just stood up to say goodbye and left Zhuangzi.

Li Wenzhong also retreated. Only Lao Zhu and the Zhu brothers were left in the hall. Seeing no outsiders, Zhu Di finally couldn't contain his inner excitement and timidly asked: "Dad...Dad."

"You just said that you want to establish vassal states outside the territory and follow the example of the Zhou Dynasty in establishing vassal states to expand the territory of China."

"Then...can a child also establish a vassal outside the territory?"

"Why, you still want to hide and relax in the pass?" Lao Zhu raised his eyebrows. "Is this your future? Let people named Xu and Li make great achievements? You can enjoy wealth and honor in the pass?"

"What's the matter!" Zhu Di quickly denied, his little face turned red. "My son is eager to take people to build a feudal vassal outside the customs now! He doesn't want any other place, so he will build the vassal in Helin!"

Helin is the current seat of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. The establishment of the vassal territory in Helin means that it is the mission to destroy Yuanting. Lao Zhu nodded, very satisfied with Zhu Di's ambition.

Historically, these four sons were extremely tough on foreign affairs when they were emperors, which Lao Zhu was very satisfied with. Therefore, he did not doubt Zhu Di's words.

"It's just..." Zhu Di was thinking about establishing a vassal state, while Zhu Hong frowned and looked thoughtful. "Dad, I think it may be quite difficult to establish a vassal state outside the territory."

"If you want to establish a vassal territory outside the territory, you can't do it with strong military power. I think you will have to bring along a lot of Han people in the pass."

"The Ming Dynasty is now full of waste and is waiting to be revitalized. It is feared that there will be no spare power..."

"So what? This generation has no spare capacity, so let Biao'er do it. If Biao'er can't do it, then let the heroic child in your sister-in-law do it!" Lao Zhu glared at Zhu Fan.

"If you want your own fiefdom, just work hard and go outside the territory to fight for it! Want to take advantage of the capital we have gained? There is no way!"

Zhu Fan's face turned pale at the words. He really didn't want to go abroad to establish a vassal state. The thought of getting along with those illiterate savages made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Lao Zhu saw through his excuse at a glance.

When Lao Zhu went on patrol in disguise, he had to go and see the fields. He did not let Zhu Ping and the others follow him, so Lao Zhu only asked Zhu Su to accompany him. Taking this opportunity, Zhu Su said to Lao Zhu: "Dad, actually third brother

That’s right.”

"It's still early, so you rashly mentioned to Uncle Xu the matter of establishing a vassal state outside the territory. Aren't you a little too hasty?"

"And establishing vassal states outside the territory... Didn't we say before that we first seek to conquer the Three Kingdoms?"

"Huh, your only appetite is to conquer the Three Kingdoms?" Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Su and smiled. "Don't think we don't know. When you look at those foreign lands, your eyes will pop out."

"Especially America... It is a God-given land that can produce divine seeds, and it is far away from China, so only the establishment of a vassal state can completely control it."

"Since enfeoffment has been restarted, we might as well restart it more thoroughly," Lao Zhu said.

"You want to say that the Ming Dynasty has enough energy to annex the three kingdoms, and it is still reluctant to annex the three countries. To say that establishing vassal states outside the territory is nothing more than a castle in the air, right?" Seeing that Zhu Su was about to speak, Lao Zhu himself said what Zhu Su was thinking.

Come out.

Zhu Su nodded. He believed that Lao Zhu's use of this matter to coax Xu Da was not a long-term solution.

After all, Xu Da is old. In his lifetime, can he really rely on the residual heat of his body to become such a prince?

"We have no choice but to do this... Do you know that our Ming court has become a mess now?"

Zhu Su was stunned. He really didn't know about this. During the Hongwu period, he didn't hear of any serious party disputes?

"You don't have to worry about this matter. You just need to know that in order to integrate the nobles and nobles in the court, Tiande needs the help." Lao Zhu waved his hand. By the way, he turned around and glared at Zhu Di in the distance. He sat in his chair with a glare.

Zhu Di was agitated and inexplicable.

"To be honest, it was the fourth child who made the mess."

"He refused the marriage, which caused rumors to spread between the government and the public. Tiande had no choice but to..."

Zhu Su scratched his head. It seemed that the government and the public needed Xu Da to step forward. However, Xu Da had to protect himself wisely because of his unrivaled position and the rumors caused by Zhu Di's refusal to marry.

That's why Lao Zhu did not hesitate to grant him the position of prince and king, and told Xu Da that he would not kill the rabbit and kill the dog. He wanted to reassure Xu Da so that he could take charge of the situation...

The affairs of government are really twists and turns... Zhu Su shook his head. If he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it anymore. Anyway, just live your own life.

"Can the cement and refined steel you mentioned earlier be developed?" Lao Zhu asked him.

"It's early! We don't have enough manpower, and we don't have enough funds. It's not enough for me to split it in half!" Zhu Su deliberately cried with a sad face. He took this opportunity to ask Lao Zhu for some pediatric research funds. "Dad, can you allocate some more money?

With me? Now the warehouse has bottomed out..."

"You cry poverty to us in the palace, and you cry poverty to us when you come out to relax!" Lao Zhu laughed amusingly. "You hired so many people to look after the babysitter, just to waste money and food? We have made such a big mistake

Zhuangzi provides you with support, but you still have the nerve to ask us for money?"

"It seems that as a time traveler, your means are limited!"

Zhu Su looked ashamed and was a little surprised in his heart. Lao Zhu was in the ninth level of the palace, but he knew the reasons behind his current lack of money and food.

But what Lao Zhu said is right. Deep down in his heart, he has always been proud of being a time traveler. Looking at these Ming natives, it is inevitable that he will unconsciously have a sense of superiority like a bumpkin.

I only thought about recruiting people, but I never thought about the balance between income and expenditure. Even in my previous life, I was just an ordinary ordinary citizen. It might be okay to guide the country with the knowledge I was instilled, and I could really do practical things.

But this shows cowardice.

Zhu Su was silent and Lao Zhu saw that he was ashamed, so he stopped talking. The father and son walked silently along the field ridges. When several farmers saw them coming, they shrank and hesitated whether they should salute or not.

"Have you been here for so long? The dealers in Zhuangzi still don't recognize you?" Looking at the dealers who hesitated for a while and finally turned to leave, Lao Zhu was furious. "When you first arrived, you

Didn’t you bring the bankers together and let them get to know each other, so as to win their hearts and minds?”

"No." Zhu Su looked confused.

Lao Zhu hesitated, and then Zhu Laowu laughed angrily. "You summoned so many military households, how did you arrange them?"

"I allocated fields to them, and Xiangdeng is in charge of everything in the village." Zhu Su was a little unsure. He had to be trained by Li Wenzhong in the morning, and in the afternoon he was busy going to the steel furnace and cement kiln to instruct the craftsmen. He was busy.

His feet never touch the ground. In his opinion, Zhuangzi is just a pretense. How can he have time to care about Zhuangzi’s affairs?
