Shrinking his neck, Qin Chengming arched his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but before leaving, your Majesty confessed that he must go back and resume his life in time. If the official dare not delay, he will not stay in Qingzhou."
"Really? It's a pity," Xiao Ming said.
He hoped that Qin Chengming could bring Qingzhou's differences to Chang'an to attract stupid people with a lot of money to come to Qingzhou for consumption, but this time it seemed that there was no chance.
Qin Rui was also a little bit reluctant when he heard this, after all, he was also traveling alone.
The court's fleet arrived in the morning and was returning in the afternoon. Xiao Ming had to take Qin Chengming to the Weijia Restaurant for lunch. In the afternoon, he returned to the dock, leaving Qin Rui and Xiao Ming staring.
"Qin Rui, since you are going to be officials in Qingzhou from now on, you and I have been monarchs and ministers from now on. Don't be as cynical as before. You must help this king to expand the fief."
After pondering for a while, Xiao Ming said to Qin Rui.
He knows Qin Rui very well. This person is very smart, but he used to not do his job properly. This was nothing in the past when he played, but he must be told a few words if he wants to accomplish something great.
"His Royal Highness has been worrying too much, Qin Rui has already changed his mind. After all, now Qin is also a person with a family, no longer when he was young and frivolous." Qin Rui said calmly.
He had to admit that his father chose the right time, taking advantage of coming to Qingzhou to bring him, in fact, many smart people in the court are making choices, but they chose more decisively.
Since Xiao Wenxuan demoted the second prince to Bazhou for Xiao Ming, many people instantly understood Xiao Ming's status in the court.
And the courtiers who were close to Xiao Ming wanted to send their children to Qingzhou, in order to show their loyalty, after all, when they arrived in Qingzhou, they were like protons.
Second, they are reminding political opponents that even if they die, there will still be people who will avenge themselves. This is a silent deterrence.
"It's so wonderful, let's go to Bowen Academy for a period of time to learn about the responsibilities of the Shaofu Supervisor. If you pass, this king will arrange you to the Shaofu Supervisor in Qingzhou." Xiao Ming said.
Qin Rui nodded. As Xiao Ming said, the relationship between him and Xiao Ming is a monarch and minister, not the relationship between drinking and eating meat before. Since it was Xiao Ming's arrangement, he was willing to accept it.
However, when Xiao Ming was about to arrange accommodation for him, he said, "His Royal Highness, the wine and food in the Wei's restaurant is really good. Someone wants to stay in the Wei's restaurant for a few days."
Xiao Ming just received the words he was about to say, and he said, "Are you sure? The cheapest room in this Wei's restaurant is also one hundred and two nights."
"One hundred taels!" Qin Rui was frightened, but after a short hesitation, he said: "His Royal Highness, Qin still has some savings. Since he came to Qingzhou, wouldn't it be a pity not to enjoy it."
Shaking his head, Xiao Ming said, "It's up to you. If you give money to this king, this king will naturally not refuse."
"This Wei's restaurant belongs to His Royal Highness?" Qin Rui was suddenly stunned.
Unable to resist the attraction of the Wei's restaurant, Qin Rui still went to the fire like moths. Xiao Ming couldn't laugh or cry, so he could only return to the palace by himself. He originally wanted to let him live in the palace for a few days, but now it saves it. .
But this also proves from the other hand how attractive Weijia Restaurant is to these dignitaries who are accustomed to life.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw a person waiting outside the gate of the palace. Looking carefully, it was Zhang Kun, the son of Zhang Liang.
At this time Zhang Kun also saw Xiao Ming, and he bowed and said, "His Royal Highness, my father asked me to rush to Qingzhou overnight to report to Your Highness that the battleship of Dengzhou Shipyard has been launched."
"It's all in the water!" Xiao Ming exclaimed.
"Yes, Your Highness, all have been launched. This year we completed the tasks assigned by His Highness one month earlier than last year." Zhang Kunxi said.
"It's really three happy moments. As soon as the court shipbuilder arrived, the Galen ship was launched, so you can take a month to build the shipyard." Xiao Ming said happily.
Zhang Kun showed a strange look when he heard this, and he said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, has the court come to a craftsman?"
Zhang Liang and his son had always been in Dengzhou, and they lacked understanding of Qingzhou, so he told him the news of 30,000 craftsmen.
"Thirty thousand people?" Zhang Kun was a little stunned when he heard the words, but he went on to say: "His Royal Highness, can the slave be the supervisor of one of the shipyards?"
"You?" Xiao Ming realized that it was wrong at this time. In the past, it was always the post that brought news, but this time it was Zhang Kundi.
Zhang Kun scratched his head, a little embarrassed, he said: "It is your Highness, now my father and I can't stay in a shipyard anymore."
"Why?" Xiao Ming asked puzzled.
Zhang Kun sighed, "His Royal Highness, the little slave proposed to add a watertight cabin structure to the Galen ship. He never wanted to be scolded by my father, saying that I am not learning and skillful, and I like to make changes."
"Watertight cabin?" Xiao Ming laughed.
This watertight cabin is actually a watertight compartment. Generally, the cabins are divided into separate compartments with compartment plates. There are 13 and 8 compartments.
This kind of watertight compartment has a great effect on the ship's sinking resistance. Generally, ships with watertight compartments are difficult to sink.
Zhang Kun smiled embarrassedly, "His Royal Highness, this may really be a whimsical little slave."
"Your idea is good, but the keel structure of the Galen ship is different from that of an ordinary merchant ship, and the watertight cabin is not suitable for the Galen ship." Xiao Ming said with a smile.
Zhang Kun was disappointed when he heard this~EbookFREE.me~ It seems that my father was right, the slave is really ignorant. "
Patting Zhang Kun on the shoulder, Xiao Ming said with a smile: "If you don’t understand, learn, it’s nothing shameful. You are still young, it’s when you are studying. Do you want to go to Bowen Academy to study shipbuilding? There can be real shipbuilding knowledge. ."
Now that the construction technology of the Galen ship has matured, Xiao Ming has begun to reserve talents for the next generation of ship types, because at that time, more than just a drawing can make the craftsmen like Zhang Liang imitate the ship.
"Knowledge of shipbuilding?" Zhang Kun wanted to prove himself, but he was wrong. At this time, hope rose in his heart again, "His Royal Highness, if I learn, can I overtake my father?"
"Of course, if you are proficient in shipbuilding knowledge in the academy, you will definitely be better than your father." Xiao Ming believes.
Zhang Kun nodded heavily and said, "Little slave is willing to go."
Xiao Ming said: "In this case, you can report to the college after the king returns from Dengzhou this time. This time the battleship is launched, this king will go to Dengzhou with Yue Yun and other students from the Naval Academy." (To be continued. .)
