Although the Ming Dynasty and the opposition had prominent contradictions, people's hearts were boiling, and fierce confrontations, the helmsmen were still racing against time to prepare on the big ship of the "New Deal".

Since Zhang Yun was really angry, Zhu Xu could not take a few children to play around. The four little guys experienced it, but their personality changed a lot.

Zhu Xu thought Zhang Yun’s education was very good, and she was discussing it in bed at night, so that the princes and daughters would come to experience it every two years.

Zhu Xu did not confine the little guys, but he didn't make them as crazy as they were.

Time passes quickly in Jingdezhen, and September is coming in a blink of an eye.

Xiao Cixuan’s second birthday is coming soon, and the journey is full of joy.

The little guy can speak, he is a pretty cute little guy, speaking with a slim voice, bright eyes, and almost never stops the smile on his face.

In the evening, Zhu Xu had some food and started to work in the small study.

What he was holding was sent by Shenlong Mansion, the result of this expo.

This is a very long list with records of various transactions, detailed, concise and clear at a glance.

Zhu Xu looked slowly. The list was very long and recorded the sales list of this trade fair.

In front are tea, spices, silk, porcelain, and various glass products, screens, mirrors, pots and pans, cans, kettles, etc. If you look closely, there are also various cloths, raw silk, paper... all kinds, as many as hundreds.

Of course, there is also arms, but the expo is not qualified to sell arms. Some people have submitted letters to the Foreign Affairs Bureau, hoping that the expo will add arms.

Whether it is around the Ming Dynasty, coastal countries, or Europe, I don’t know how many people want to buy the powerful artillery of the Ming Dynasty.

The Dutch and the Spanish also ordered fifty ships of various types from the Ming Dynasty by deposit, and hoped to install weapons.

Zhu Xu didn't care about this, and looked at the final transaction amount, capitalized: 6.75 million taels of silver.

Zhu Xu had a smile on his face and sighed in his heart. This was just a deal on the spot, and the intention amount may be several times this!

Zhu Xu danced in his heart, a series of beautiful scenes appeared in his mind, and he felt more satisfied, with more smiles on his face. He suddenly looked up at Cao Huachun and said, "How are you doing to send diplomats along the road on the sea?"

Cao Huachun hurried forward and said, "The coastal countries have not had much twists and turns. The Foreign Affairs Bureau has adopted some bribery methods. At present, more than 20 countries of all sizes are willing to send diplomats to our Ming Dynasty and send diplomats to stay in our Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Xu sat upright and said, "Well, this is a good use. It is not only for military considerations, trade first, and other follow-ups. Tell the Foreign Affairs Bureau that trade is the top priority at present, and you must not relax at all."

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded.

Zhu Xu groped in the chair with one hand and said, "The joint fleet should continue to expand, especially the base, build more and build fortifications at the same time. We should lead the whole with points. There is no need to do now, build the stakes and find out the situation..."

Cao Huachun remembered it silently and felt as calm as usual.

No one knows the ambition of the Majesty in front of him better than him. When the Ming Dynasty was staring at the Jin Kingdom, he was already preparing for the navy, but when the whole country was staring at the "New Deal", he had already made arrangements overseas.

The people in front of us stand higher than everyone in the Ming Dynasty, see farther and have a deeper plan, and cannot be guessed.

‘Maybe, the emperor is really far ahead of Taizu Taizong…’

Cao Huachun thought secretly and listened carefully to Zhu Xu's words.

Zhu Xu said for a while, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said, "About the arms, I asked the Military Weapons Bureau to make an export-type firearm, how about it?"

Cao Huachun said: "There are already samples, and the Magistrate's Mansion is still verifying to ensure that our Ming Dynasty technology will not flow out and will remain ahead of the curve. In about half a month, there will be almost any results."

Zhu Xu tapped the table with his finger and said, "Let the Foreign Affairs Bureau prepare and vigorously promote it. If necessary, military exercises and expos are used casually in various countries. The important thing is to sell the things and make enough money to come back..."

Cao Huachun knew very well that the Ming Dynasty's firearms were the most jealous in many countries, but the Ming Dynasty has always been rigorous and not sold much. If it was completely relaxed, it would be a shortage of supply and demand, and there would be a steady stream of orders, or silver pouring into the Ming Dynasty!

"However, some places should be treated differently, such as Japan, Moxi, Mongolia, what can be sold and what can't be sold, the General's Mansion must conduct a good inspection and handle it with caution..." Zhu Xu emphasized again.

"I understand." Cao Huachun bowed.

By October, Zhu Xu began to be busy.

A group of officials of all sizes wrote a letter asking Zhu Xu to return to Beijing as soon as possible. After all, summer has passed and the capital is not so hot.

This reason is upright and impeccable. But the reason behind it is that the "prime minister" is about to change, and many people are anxious and need Zhu Xu to come back and take charge.

It was at this time that the Ming Dynasty, the court, the country and the country, and the outside world, would know the importance of Zhu Xu and no longer worry about his trouble.

But Zhu Xu didn't move at all, just stayed in Jingdezhen and didn't leave. He occasionally went to Nanchang Prefecture to take a look, which caused a shock to the place.

In mid-October, Zhu Xu received a letter from Sun Chuanting. The letter was very long, but the content was not much. It was more about some ideas, explaining his various thoughts on the government and military affairs.

Zhu Xu looked at it for a long time and examined the policy outline of this future "prime minister".

The reason why Sun Chuanting did not list too much is actually an attitude of asking for instructions.

Almost all the "New Deal" comes from Zhu Xu's framework, and was established by breaking the old Ming pattern. Bi Ziyan's "New Deal" was established on these fragments, barely stabilizing the chaotic situation. After years of development, the chaos has been basically digested. Now it is time to clean up the rubble, garbage, and smelly ditches, and complete the thorough construction of the "New Deal".

Zhu Xu looked at it seriously. He still admired Sun Chuanting's ideas. He was a Jinshi in the Wanli period. Like the officials at that time, he was full of dissatisfaction with the court and wanted to change.

Now, finally he had the chance, he was full of confidence and passion. From the lines, it can be seen that Sun Chuanting could no longer wait.

Zhu Xu clearly saw Sun Chuanting's desire to move, but he did not rush to reply. The more he reached this time, the more he could not be anxious. Zhu Xu could not be anxious, and Sun Chuanting could not be anxious.

At the end of November, the headquarters welcomed an unexpected and expected person.

——Sun Chengzong.

This old man who was over 70 years old and was running around for Zhu Xu all over the world, now he was in a state of turmoil and came to the headquarters again.

"Your Majesty, the situation in the army is not as optimistic as we had expected."
