Facing Lao Zhu's eye, Zhu Yuan still quickly started to use his brain even though he knew he would not do anything to him.

On the opposite side, Lao Zhu became leisurely, picked up the tea and took a sip, then turned to the page where he had just written down two words, as if he was thinking about it, and sometimes wrote a few more strokes. Occasionally, he looked up at Zhu Yuan and said, "Think about it carefully, I'll wait."

Zhu Yuan has considered similar issues.

Not too careful.

After all, the words of the five hundred years of national prosperity are indeed a gimmick to a large extent.

As for the specific details, Zhu Yuan’s idea at that time was that if he could survive that level in three years, let’s talk about it.

Now, the three-year buffer period is gone, so I can only think about it.

I quickly felt a little dizzy.

I dare not say it.

Worried that Lao Zhu felt that he was deliberately ruling, so he used a horse whip to make him sober.

When Old Zhu slowly glanced at him after drinking a cup of tea, Zhu Yuan accused him of guilt and also took a page of paper from the desk, as well as a charcoal pen and ruler, returned to his position to start drawing, and said, "Ancestors, the country is still the same two legs. Any country has solved the people's food and clothing and taught the people's etiquette, at least there will be chaos. However, since the ancestors are asking about the country's destiny, let's talk about this matter."

As he said this, Zhu Yuan had quickly completed a world map that was just like the details.

As soon as the local mark of the trend curves of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River were added, and the words "Da Ming" were written, Zhu Yuan felt someone approaching him. He turned his head and saw that it was Lao Zhu. He was about to get up, but his shoulder was pressed down: "You... sit down, I'll watch from the side."

Zhu Yuan could only sit down obediently.

Lao Zhu had already looked at the map drawn by Zhu Yuan: "What is this?"

"The world map." Zhu Yuan explained, and said: "Ancestors, grandson confessed that if it was just the 'Ming Dynasty', the grandson would not be able to guarantee the 700-year reign of the country. However, if I want my Zhu family to maintain its prosperity for seven hundred years, grandson has a way."

Lao Zhu was not angry. He actually understood that it was really difficult to have a seven hundred years of national destiny, but he was just puzzled: "What is the difference between these two?"

As he said that, he remembered that Zhu Yuan had a verbal saying "a hundred-year-old dynasty, a thousand-year-old family." Lao Zhu remembered the details of the first question of the two people.

Zhu Yuan said: "Ancestor, please let my grandson start with this world map?"

Lao Zhu put aside those thoughts and nodded, "Say it."

Zhu Yuan said: "First of all, we need to talk about some geography. Our ancestors should know the saying that the sky is round and the place is round. In fact, it is not the case. The sky is actually round. We humans live on a huge sphere, which was called the "earth" in later generations. The sky is just a gaseous shell covering the earth. The diameter of the earth is 80,000 miles, and it is very vast. Therefore, those who are on it will feel that the earth is flat."

When Lao Zhu heard Zhu Yuan say this, he suddenly remembered what he said.

Without the Book of Heaven, he would not be able to perform his ideas without knowing the root of Zhu Yuan because he would not believe his words.

really.

What's this...

He started to say "The Book of Heaven".

So I asked a question subconsciously, and it was the first time I heard similar theories that I was inevitably confused: "If we were on the same ball, why... wouldn't it fall?"

Zhu Yuan spread the charcoal pen in his palm and threw it gently: "Ancestor, please see, grandson throws the charcoal pen, it does not fly away, but falls. This is why we will not fall out. The earth has a kind of gravity that firmly absorbs us on it. These have nothing to do with today's topic, and ancestors don't need to understand it for the time being. grandson talks about some things that ancestors need to know. The earth itself has been rotating. Every time it rotates for twelve hours, because it is rotation, it will always face the sun and face the sun, so day and night are formed."

Old Zhu nodded slightly to show his understanding.

Zhu Yuan then again pointed to the desktop world map: "This is a plane map after the earth is spread out. My grandson has limited memory and many mistakes are missing, but it can be used as a reference."

As he said this, Zhu Yuan used a ruler to draw a dotted line at the equator, marking the three words "80,000 miles", and then continued: "This year, according to the Western calendar common to later generations, it was 1368 AD..."

As he spoke, Zhu Yuan wrote a few Arabic numerals next to him with a charcoal pen and explained a little: "Ancestor, these Arabic numerals are simpler and easier to express than Chinese numerals. If we want to go further from the agricultural era, this number must be promoted. I won't mention this for now..."

Old Zhu opened his mouth, wanting Zhu Yuan to mention it, Zhu Yuan had continued: "1368 AD, the 14th century, the century is a unit of time, each century is 100 years. In the next one or two hundred years, the specific grandson could not be explained clearly. In short, the world began the era of exploring the ocean to discover new land, and several marine hegemonic countries with territories all over the world were born."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuan glanced at Lao Zhu: "Do our ancestors remember the United Kingdom I mentioned in the Book of Heaven?"

As he said this, Zhu Yuan marked the word "UK" somewhere in the upper left corner of the world map.

Lao Zhu also replied: "I remember it was the one who fought against the Qing court in 1840...what war."

Zhu Yuan did not turn to these things, but just nodded and marked his position: "British is here. Its initial land area was not as big as a province in China, with a population of only millions. However, with the help of the dividends of the Age of Discovery, Britain rose rapidly and once called the Empire of the Sun never set. Its overseas land, also known as a colony, was spread all over the world..."

Zhu Yuan said, and quickly marked the word "English" in several positions in his memory.

Lao Zhu grabbed a word and interrupted: "What is the empire that does not set in the sun?"

Zhu Yuan said: "Just just explained specifically, the earth always faces the sun, and the vast territory of Britain at its peak made this country always have territory in the daytime, so it is known as the "Empire of the Sun never set."

As an emperor, Lao Zhu's eyes were filled with a little longing when he heard this.

And ambitions.

Zhu Yuan continued: "The British race, like we are called Han people, they are called the 'Ansas'. Britain probably rose from the 16th century until the 21st century when his grandson returned. In five hundred years, even though its overseas territories were separated, the English-speaking Ansas have always controlled the world. Before the grandson came, Britain had declined, but among the nearly two hundred countries in the world, its national strength remained in the top ten. As a brother country of the same origin and species, the United States has turned into the world's largest power. The five mainstream Ansas countries together form the 'Five Eyes Alliance' to control the world together."

At the end, Zhu Yuan looked up at Lao Zhu: "Ancestor, do you have any insights?"

Lao Zhu felt that he had grabbed something, but it was not very clear. He raised his big hand and twisted Zhu Yuan's head back: "Don't be too lazy, I'll take it."

Zhu Yuan felt wronged.

Zhu Yuan stayed in his heart and continued obediently: "In the eyes of my grandson, the Ming Dynasty, only by hearing this country's name should become the Sun-Set Empire with a territory all over the world. Moreover, we also have this ability. Even if one or two hundred years later, the previous marine overlord of Britain was called "Spain", which was also a country with an initial land area of ​​only a province of our Ming Dynasty. The Spanish Navy was known as the "Invincible Fleet". At its peak, it was only 1,000 ships of all sizes. However, the Ming Navy now owned more than 1,000 ships, right?"

Old Zhu nodded slightly.

Zhu Yuan added: "And, as my grandson just talked about medicine, our biggest advantage is to know the direction, not just the direction, but also the model of the rise of these countries in later generations as a 'chess record', know where to go and where to go, and don't take too many detours. Britain has become an empire that never sets for hundreds of years, and we may only need two or three generations at most."

Lao Zhu listened carefully, and felt his heartbeat slowly accelerate, and a feeling that could be called passionate rushed to his head.

Zhu Yuan began to conquer his thoughts: "The grandson cannot guarantee the 700th anniversary of the Ming Dynasty, but it can make our Zhu family prosperous for 700 years. This plan is to expand outward, just like Britain, and become a brand new "Empire that never sets" in advance. In the past, only the kings were granted in China. For example, the current territory of the Ming Dynasty was only about 5,000 miles east, west, south, north, and north, not big enough, and there was only one dragon throne, so brothers were inevitably fighting each other. The ancestors looked at this picture again. If they could impose vassals in a vast area of ​​80,000 miles, if they had no ambition, they would stay in their hometown to enjoy it.

Blessing. If you have ambitions, you don’t have to worry about your own acre of three-part land. If you lead your troops to fight, as long as you have enough ability, you won’t have to conquer a territory that is no less than my Ming Dynasty territory. Even if you hit the horizon, you will even hit the moon in the future. If you fight, you will be your own, and you will become the emperor. Moreover, because you are far away from China, your brothers can separate them. Even if there are some small disputes, they will not have to live or die. Instead, it is easier to be like the "Ansas" because of the same origin and species, and the same spirit will be the same in the future."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuan once again made a fictional fiction on the territory of the Ming Dynasty: "At that time, even if the 'Ming Dynasty' decline, there may be a 'Da Qin', 'Da Chu', 'Da Zhao', 'Da Jin', 'Da Yan' in other places, which also originated from the Zhu family. It can be imagined that because they are brothers of the same clan, anyone who wants to change dynasties in any 'Zhu family' country must consider the ideas of other 'Zhu family' dynasties. Even in the worst case, if the usurper succeeds, he will not dare to slaughter the descendants of our tribe. At most, he will send them to other Zhu dynasties. Ancestors, what do you think of grandson?"

Zhu Yuan said and looked up, and saw Lao Zhu's Adam's apple rolling, and he swallowed a big mouthful.

Lao Zhu felt his mouth was a little dry, so he picked up Zhuyuan tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.

If it weren't for reading the "Book of Heaven", if Zhu Yuan hadn't used "British" as an example, if others said this to Lao Zhu, they would probably have been treated as a crazy person who was trying to deceive the emperor and directly pulled him out and chopped him up.

How is that possible?!

Now, think about the size of any "British" that is only the size of a province in the Ming Dynasty, and what can't it be?

If this layout can be truly completed, a group of emperors will follow the four directions in the future, echoing each other and complementing each other. Indeed, what is the difficulty of prosperity for seven hundred years or thousands of years?

After looking at his 23rd generation grandson, Lao Zhu's voice was inexplicably hoarse, and he asked another question before: "How to do it?"

After drawing the big cake, I poured cold water on it.

Zhu Yuan said: "Oncestors, they should eat rice at a bite. The economics of grandson is the foundation of strength. We must first unify the Central Plains, then develop the economy, and initially complete the industrial revolution. Haha, this industrial revolution, our ancestors were curious about what was after the Iron Age. In fact, the eras mentioned by grandson can only be regarded as the agricultural era. After the agricultural era, it is the industrial era, which needs to be completed through the industrial revolution. We only need to achieve the initial industrialization to form a crushing trend of many foreign races overseas who are still in the Stone Age. At that time, it will be easy to expand outward. On the other hand, our biggest advantage is time. Those global hegemonic countries started to rise after one or two hundred years, which means that we still have at least two hundred years to make a peaceful layout."

Lao Zhu listened carefully and remembered it.

In that book of "The Book of Heaven", there are the words "industrial revolution".

After the agricultural era, it was the industrial era.

What was the industrial age?

Lao Zhu remembered again that the Qing Dynasty, when a country in the industrial era was destroyed by thousands of people, was probably the power of the industrial era?

After breathing slowly, Lao Zhu calmed himself down.

yes.

The rice must be eaten at a bite.

He is good at this.

After making up his mind, Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Yuan and said, "Since you mentioned the economics science, you have improved again. The unfinished manuscript of the "production" and the "distribution" article, write it out for me these days. Also, you no longer have to worry about what kind of "butterfly" you are. You will come up with other good methods to govern the country and promote the country."

Come again!

Zhu Yuan looked up at Lao Zhu and said pitifully: "Ancestor, my grandson has not had a good nap. It is exhausting to think about these things and I feel a little dizzy. Let's go here first today?"

When Lao Zhu saw that Zhu Yuan’s face was indeed a little pale, he felt pity in his heart. Thinking about the long term, he could only nod.

Unwilling to give up, he put his shoulder on Zhu Yuan and pinched it: "Since you are here, why not choose a stronger body and make a sick person and slap yourself."

Zhu Yuan: “…”

When I want to come?

Moreover, you are so glad, my ancestors, fortunately I possessed a handheld, otherwise we would hit the wall and go back on the spot.

Although Lao Zhu stopped slapping Zhu Yuan, he still didn't leave. He turned to the other side and sat down, continued to start writing with the pen, and said, "Don't call him ancestors again. If it's easy, it's inappropriate to be heard by outsiders. You can change your name yourself."

Zhu Yuan actually doesn’t want to shout!

Because he always thinks of Mrs. Jia in "Dream of Red Mansions".

After a brief consideration, Zhu Yuan tentatively said: "Ancestor?"

This is a homonym.

Lao Zhu listened and understood in an instant. "The ancestor" was homophonic with "Master" and of course it does not mean "Master".

In fact, Lao Zhu is also used to the mess of people below.

Some people shouted "Lord", some shouted "Lord", some shouted "Your Majesty", some shouted "Prince", and some shouted "Master". A few days ago, some Confucian scholars were sent to western Zhejiang, and the names were even more diverse, "Long live", "Official Family", "Own Master", etc. all came out.

Lao Zhu's attitude towards this is enough as long as he knows that he is calling himself.
To be continued...
