Chapter 231 Weapon Making

Since then, Changyan has not given her any more offensive weapons.

She is considering whether to find a teacher for her child.

No matter how talented a person is, if he figures things out on his own, he won't be able to do it as quickly as if someone were to lead the way.

Jiujiu had textbooks to read, and Xu Xinshu went to ask the farmer for advice herself.

Recently, Xu Xinshu also discovered the power of the group. She stopped doing research alone and started recruiting people.

Putting the heavy burden of transforming weapons in a short period of time on a child, Bei Jingchu felt that her bottom line as a human being should not be so cruel.

When you have an idea, go find Aye.

She analyzed clearly in Yu's study: "After this sneak attack, we still have to stop the war in the end."

"We have only taken half of Tunning's territory, and there is still half to go."

"Gunpowder is no longer a secret. The next time we go to war, in order to reduce the loss of our troops, we must come up with weapons that will catch them off guard."

"Give them time to recuperate, and there will be no room for them to make a comeback."

"Every time they thought they were strong enough to invade Vietnam again, they were caught off guard by our new weapons and fell to their knees begging for mercy."

The emperor was impressed and asked: "What do you think?"

Bei Jingchu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask for a reward to recruit craftsmen from all over the world in the name of building a separate house for myself."

"Secretly making firearms."

"Believe me, gunpowder has many uses."

"When the next war breaks out, I will give Your Majesty a surprise."

Although it was a serious title, Bei Jingchu did not look for her father as a daughter.

Instead, she made the promise as a princess.

The emperor could hear it.

"Yes."

So, on Princess Tianzhen’s eighth birthday.

The emperor issued an order, offering a reward of ten thousand gold coins and recruiting craftsmen from all over the country to build a villa for the princess as a birthday gift for her safe return.

As expected, after the order was given, someone gave another warning.

It was said that the emperor doted on his children too much, which was against regulations and cost the people money and labor.

The snowflake-like folding notes were all ignored.

The emperor went even further and appointed the Minister of Works to be personally in charge of the matter.

When the Minister of Works was summoned to the Taiji Palace, he was still a little angry and complained to his wife in a low voice: "Your Majesty is too indulgent to the children."

"What a big job it is, and I have to supervise it myself."

"It looks like they are planning to renovate the palace."

His wife advised him: "Husband, you can just say a few words at home, but you must not show any resentment outside."

"Thunder and rain are all grace from the Emperor. Being a supervisor for the princess means that His Majesty values ​​me. We should thank you for that."

The Minister of Works fastened the belt of his official uniform and kissed his old wife on the forehead.

"How could I not know?"

"Okay, I'll go thank you now."

After the others left, the Shangshu's wife asked the kitchen to prepare some more snacks so that he could get drunk to relieve his sorrow when he came back.

As a result, when the Minister of Works came back, he was beaming with joy, and the wrinkles on his face showed his happiness.

The Shangshu's wife felt so sorry for him. Look at the way he was forcing himself to smile in order not to leave any evidence.

He has suffered so much.

After closing the door, the lady poured him some wine.

"Now that we are alone, you are really being wasted this time."

"My husband is depressed, come and have some warm wine."

The Minister of Industry said righteously: "How can you say that a person of great talent is being wasted?"

"Your Majesty values ​​me so much that he let me be in charge of this supervision."

That was all he could say.

When he went to Yu's study, he knew the real purpose of His Majesty summoning the craftsmen.

Entrusting him with this matter shows that we have a crush on him.

Although he was asked to obey Princess Tianzhen's orders.

But the old man who often held meetings in Yu's study had already seen the abilities of the talented girl and knew that the princess was not someone who would just do anything rash.

The Minister of Works, who had to keep the secret, could only hold his happiness in his heart and keep his mouth shut.

The lady next to him:......

Isn't it what you said yourself that you are wasting your talents?

Nerve...

After recruiting a group of people, Bei Jingchu told Chang Yan: "This group of people are all the top craftsmen in the country who have been screened."

"Since you are good at this, you should seize the rare opportunity."

Changyan couldn't stop smiling. This was a complete surprise to her.

She came across an opportunity and met a master who supported her in learning skills.

But things did not go smoothly, and Changyan came back listlessly.

"Your Highness."

"The masters all said that their craft was not to be passed on to outsiders and refused to teach me."

As soon as these words came out, Bei Jingchu frowned immediately.

It’s not because others are keeping secrets and are unwilling to teach long-smoking, but because keeping secrets means they won’t exchange techniques with each other.

Summoning hundreds of schools of thought does not mean that efforts will be made in one place, but rather that each school of thought will compete with each other.

She put down the letter and asked, "Does the Minister of Works know about this?"

"I don't know."

She asked Changyan to go back: "You go back there first, I will take care of this matter."

Bei Jingchu directly summoned the Minister of Works into the Xuanshi Hall.

His answer clearly indicated that he knew.

"Your Highness, these craftsmen all have unique skills passed down from generation to generation, and they always cling to their own specialties."

"I have already sent people to lobby, and now some people have relented."

"After a while, more and more people will be willing to hand over their best skills."

Bei Jingchu covered her face, took a deep breath, and frantically comforted herself.

It's okay. It's normal for the human brain to short-circuit. Don't get angry just because the boss is stupid once.

She asked, “So how is it going now?”

"Your Highness, the progress is slow and there is no sign of results yet."

"After all, they were all thinking on their own and didn't discuss it with others."

"But once my people are convinced, progress will surely be quick."

Bei Jing inhaled first, then inhaled again.

I couldn't hold it in any longer: "Do you want to listen to what you are saying?"

"Lobbying?"

"After a while?"

"No sign of results?"

"How many months have passed since you finished lobbying?"

"We are preparing weapons to fight against Tunning!"

"After this break, they could come back at any time."

"The more power our weapons have, the more hope our soldiers on the front lines have of survival."

"Don't you have any sense of time pressure?"

An old man was scolded by a baby until he couldn't even lift his head.

"I am guilty, Your Highness. I was just trying to show them courtesy..."

Bei Jingchu sneered: "Talented people do deserve courtesy, but this is not just one person, it's a group of people."

"Your responsibility is to manage them, to make them follow the direction we point them to, and to unite as one force, rather than being scattered and forming their own factions."

"Those who do not obey discipline are of no use to us."

"Minister Sikong, please do not betray His Majesty's trust."

The Minister of Industry was very serious and said, "Please give me your instructions, Your Highness."
