Chapter 1158 Are you planning to kneel until you break through the floor of our Prince's mansio
Chapter 1158 Are you planning to kneel until you break through the floor of our Prince's mansio
He looked at the person in front of him who had clearly never even left Chang'an City more than a few times.
Yet she possesses a broader and more far-sighted vision than anyone else in this era.
Besides pride, all that remained in my heart was endless love.
He knew he had truly struck gold.
"Yan'er, you..."
He opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say.
Any words of praise seem so pale and powerless in the face of her earth-shattering vision.
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty is truly a genius!"
In the end, it was Zhou Xing, the Minister of Revenue, who broke the silence first.
His fat face was now filled with fanatical worship.
"Develop industry! Expand overseas!"
"Use our Daqian products to make money all over the world!"
"This...this is truly a grand plan for the nation that will last for eternity!"
"Only today has this old minister realized what it means to be a frog in a well!"
"Compared to Your Majesty's great talent and vision, my petty interests, which only focus on a few taels of silver in the national treasury, are simply short-sighted and not worth mentioning!"
As he spoke, he was about to kneel down again.
But Lin Zhen grabbed him.
"Alright, alright, Fatty Zhou."
Lin Zhen said irritably.
"Are you planning to kneel until you wear through the floor of our palace today?"
"No, Your Highness!"
Zhou Xing said with a wronged expression.
"This old minister is genuinely excited from the bottom of his heart!"
"You have no idea, after hearing Your Majesty's words, this old minister feels as if the blood in his body is on fire!"
"This old minister wishes to go to Jiangnan immediately!"
"Go and build a textile factory and a porcelain factory for His Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, we must ensure that the silk of our Great Qian Dynasty covers the entire Western Regions!"
"We must make our Great Qian porcelain a priceless treasure that foreign barbarians will vie to buy!"
The more he spoke, the more excited he became.
He was like he'd been injected with adrenaline.
Li Ge, the Minister of Works, who was standing to the side, was in a similar state.
"Yes! And shipyards too!"
"Old minister, if we're going to build one, let's build the biggest and strongest ship in the world!"
"We must make the dragon flag of our Great Qian Dynasty fly over every corner of the four seas and eight wastelands!"
Lin Zhen looked at the two old men who had suddenly become angry young men.
It was both funny and sad.
He knew that the "pie in the sky" Murong Yan had painted for them was far too big.
It was so grand that it could drive any ambitious minister mad.
He turned to look at his still calm and composed wife.
His eyes were filled with undisguised doting affection and pride.
"Alright, you two calm down first."
He waved to Zhou Xing and Li Ge.
"Eat your food one bite at a time and walk your journey one step at a time."
"Your Majesty's idea, though grand..."
"But achieving this is not something that can be accomplished overnight."
"The manpower, material resources, and financial resources required for this are astronomical."
"We must plan for the long term."
"That's what the prince said."
Murong Yan nodded and spoke.
"This matter is of great importance."
“We can first select one or two places in Jiangnan as pilot areas.”
"Let's try it on a small scale first."
"Once we have accumulated enough experience, we will gradually promote it nationwide."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Zhou Xing and Li Ge gradually calmed down from their excitement.
They knew that what His Majesty and the Prince said made sense.
Such a momentous event, capable of changing the fate of a nation, should not be rushed.
"In Your Majesty's opinion, where should the first batch of pilot projects be located?"
Du Ruhui, or rather, the Prime Minister Du who had been sent to the northern frontier, was not here.
Zhou Xing then voluntarily assumed the responsibility of being the head of all officials.
Murong Yan pondered for a moment.
His gaze fell on the huge geomantic map of the Great Qian Dynasty hanging on the wall.
Finally, her finger landed on the two wealthiest and most prosperous cities in Jiangnan.
"Suzhou and Hangzhou."
"Suzhou and Hangzhou have been known as lands of fish and rice, and silk capitals since ancient times."
"Its textile and handicraft industries are unparalleled in the world."
"We established our first royal textile mill and porcelain factory here."
“In addition,” her finger continued south along the coastline, finally stopping at a coastal port city located at the southernmost tip of the Great Qian Dynasty.
"Guangzhou."
"This is the largest trading port in our Great Qian Dynasty."
"It will also be the home port of our future ocean-going fleet!"
"Right here, we will build the first royal shipyard of our Great Qian Dynasty!"
At this moment, she was wearing the Phoenix Descent Dress, which served as her only nightgown.
She leaned lazily against Lin Zhen's chest.
The ultra-black Suzhou brocade fabric made her fingers, which seemed to be pointing at the world, appear even whiter and more like jade.
The colossal phoenix embroidered with real gold thread seemed to be surveying its territory on the enormous geomantic map, following her finger movements.
His phoenix eyes blazed with an unprecedented, boundless passion for creation and conquest!
The five-zhang-long, dark gold Suzhou brocade train spread out freely from her feet.
It's as if it wants to cover the entire geomantic map.
That luxurious messiness is no longer lazy at this moment.
Rather, it is an absolute confidence that allows one to manipulate the entire world at will!
"it is good!"
Looking at her spirited appearance, Lin Zhen couldn't help but give her a big thumbs up!
"It's up to you!"
"Build factories in Suzhou and Hangzhou!"
"Guangzhou is building large ships!"
"I want to see what kind of earth-shattering changes my husband and I can bring to the world when we join forces!"
"Your Majesty and the Prince are truly a match made in heaven!"
Zhou Xing and Li Ge looked at the perfect couple before them, who seemed to be pointing out the flaws in the world and wielding great power.
My heart was filled with nothing but heartfelt admiration.
they know.
There was a legendary emperor and empress who had reached the pinnacle of both civil and military achievements, presiding over the country.
It would be difficult for their Great Qian Dynasty not to have a glorious future!
The discussions were over, on this matter of paramount importance concerning the fate of the nation.
Zhou Xing and Li Ge, the two satisfied old men, then took their leave.
They are now eager to put their skills to use.
Those two troublemakers are gone.
Inside the dining room, only Lin Zhen and Murong Yan remained.
"Husband,"
Murong Yan leaned against Lin Zhen's chest, playing with his large, well-defined hands.
Her voice carried a hint of a little girl's curiosity.
"Do you think we can really build a treasure ship that can sail thousands of miles?"
"Can we really sell our silk and porcelain to that legendary end of the world?"
Although she had just appeared very confident in front of Zhou Xing and Li Ge.
But deep down, she was still a little unsure.
After all, it was an unknown area she had never been to before.
"Of course."
Lin Zhen smiled and pulled her closer into his arms.
"My silly Yan'er, have you forgotten who I am?"
"I am your man."
"It is Lin Zhen, who is omnipotent in this world."
"Anything you want to do."
"Even if you want the stars in the sky, I will find a way to get them for you."
"Moreover, they are just a few dilapidated ships that can go out to sea?"
His declaration was in the style of a domineering CEO.
Murong Yan's heart fluttered again.
She knew this man wasn't bragging.
Since he said he could.
Then it definitely will.
