Under the warm winter sun... In front of Zhu Yuanzhang's villa, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Lang, Zhu Tsu, Zhu Ren, Zhu Di, Zhu Qi... In the open space in front of the villa, Empress Ma set up two coal stoves on the concrete floor of the villa. There was a pot on the coal stove, and dumplings were being cooked in the pot.

The dumpling stuffing is made of mutton.

At this time, every family in Yingtiancheng was already using honeycomb coal. After all, honeycomb coal is really easy to use with coal stoves. The coal stove will be ready in the morning. As long as you take good care of it, the coal stove will not be interrupted for a day.

Using a coal stove to cook water to cook, this solves many problems. At least you don’t have to take warmth like you did before, and you also have to chop firewood and cook water. This firewood saves a lot, so Yingtian no longer uses honeycomb coal.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened three honeycomb coal workshops in Yingtian in one breath, and also planned to open the honeycomb coal workshops until the entire Ming Dynasty. After all, this honeycomb coal and coal furnace are a good thing that benefits the country and the people.

"Stop doing it, come back and eat dumplings soon... The dumplings are cooked." Queen Ma looked at the dumplings in the pot and stood up happily to greet her son. To be honest, Queen Ma was particularly happy at this time because her children were finally neatly together.

Although some of them are reluctant, it is really nothing to be able to reunite with a family.

"Here..." Zhu Yuanzhang said directly that the shovel was inserted into the land, and then wiped the sweat from his head with the towel he handed over to him: "Biao'er, Lang'er, Rong'er, take a rest, let's eat dumplings...!"

"Yes...Dad, oh, just now, I'm almost exhausted." Zhu Lang waved his hand vigorously. He just followed Zhu Yuanzhang and was busy with his time. Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more vigorous, but Zhu Lang couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

"Hmph..." Zhu Qi said with a cold snorting, "This is where I go. When our Prince Taiping trained us, he never thought about whether we would be exhausted?"

"The third brother...you are making up old accounts." Zhu Yuanzhang said yellingly: "But you want to make up old accounts, don't look for Zhu Lang. If you want to look for him, just look for us. We said that Zhu Lang should train you well. Now I won't hide it from you anymore. I will train you out to grab things for us."

Zhu Biao and Zhu Lang followed Zhu Yuanzhang on the left and right, and the other princes followed Zhu Biao and Zhu Lang in turn. This position was determined by Zhu Yuanzhang. Although Zhu Lin was very unhappy, there was no way to be unhappy. He didn't dare to bare his teeth in front of his father anymore.

When he arrived behind Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the rocking chair aside. Empress Ma brought a bowl of dumplings to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang picked it up and sniffed it deeply and said, "It smells so good, the dumplings made by my mother are fragrant."

As he said that, Zhu Yuanzhang ate one. After finishing the dumplings in his mouth, Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "We were born as a poor child. If it weren't for Lang'er's grandmother, we would have died long ago.

There will be you, Langer is your brother, you should respect him, because if you don’t respect him, it will be like slapping us in the face.

And Langer knows more than you. Langer said that there are many good things outside the sea, land, gold, silver mountains, grain, and mines... The guys who own these good things are all a group of stubborn and uncivilized people. Whoever snatches them can own them.

In the past, we thought about letting you guard the border and protect our Ming Dynasty. After thinking about it, we are so careless. Now we hope that you can go out overseas and fight for the same kind of land as your father and I, and create a piece of our own Ming land.

After you fight out, there will be your own place, and your prince can inherit it in the future..."

As he said that, bowls of dumplings were also delivered to the princes, and the order was in accordance with the order of the elders and young people. Zhu Lang got the second bowl, which was what Queen Ma was expressing her meaning to these princes.

Zhu Chuang looked at the third dumplings delivered to him and sighed silently. Although Zhu Chuang was already very angry at this time, he did not dare to express it.

The princes sat down at Zhu Yuanzhang's gesture, ate the dumplings in the bowl bit by bit, and Empress Ma sat next to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma and continued to smile: "Last, fourth, fifth, you are already from Hailongwei."

"Hailong Guard?" Zhu Qi, Zhu Di, and Zhu Qi were stunned.

Zhu Biao laughed and said, "Hailongwei was the name of the sea inspection team you were originally in. The father chose it, but Langdi said it was too popular, so it was useless, so it was used."

"What kind of taste is this? I think the name of Hailong Guard is better. The sea inspection team is not as domineering as soon as they hear it." Zhu Qi muttered.

Zhu Lang ignored it and just smiled faintly. Don’t this guy know that the training of the maritime inspection team has not yet begun, and he has also been through the recruit training. Zhu Lang is not a slim person, but he will still remind others to treat Zhu Li well.

"Haha..." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "The Hailong Guard will definitely call you in the future, and by that time, the father hopes that you three will have one of them to control a fleet of their own."

"Fleet?" Zhu Qi, Zhu Di, and Zhu Qi heard a strange name again.

"Father, what is a fleet?" Zhu Xun asked anxiously.

"The fleet...is a huge battle group composed of hundreds of large sea ships, with about tens of thousands of people, which can sweep all surrounding countries, cross the ocean and go to the other side of the ocean..." Zhu Biao explained the meaning of the fleet.

"Can we have our own fleet?" Zhu Di was a little excited.

"Of course..." Zhu Lang said slightly: "I have started to develop the latest sea ships now. There will be ten of these sea ships, with various attack methods of their own. Longjiang Shipyard has started to make sand ships.

With the sand ship, we can go out to sea, and then grab the gold and silver mines outside, and then build the latest sea ships. The fleet will soon take shape. Perhaps in five years, one of you can become the general of the fleet."

"The General of the Fleet?" Zhu Qi, Zhu Di, Zhu Qi were shocked... and showed endless look of expectation.

But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "But...you still need to work hard. By the way, after three months of training, you will go and invite the Taihu water bandits to be suppressed. This time, clearing out the Taihu water bandits is your first battle.

If anyone performs well, we will give you a medal of loyalty and courage. If you want to become the fleet leader, identification is very important. The medal is to make others recognize your first token, so you must perform well."

"Father, don't worry, I will not let any of those bandits go." Zhu Qi smiled confidently.

"Let's take a look at the three... Do you not let go of any of them, or will my ship destroy them first?" Zhu Di was not inferior at this time.

"Father..." At this moment, Zhu Chuang said, "Can you give me a boat too?"
