Chapter 1397 Everything is ready

Zhu Xu looked out the window, turned around, and said, "It's too early. It will be a problem for Sun Chuanting and others to go back. But you are right, they may not be able to fully understand my ideas. You are ready to go back to Beijing."

Cao Huachun quickly stood up and said, "Abide by the order."

Zhu Xu couldn't calm down the excitement in his heart, so he walked a few more steps and said, "After you return to Beijing, tell Sun Chuanting that you can move faster."

Cao Huachun said: "Yes."

After Zhu Xu said this, his mood was already hard to calm down. He couldn't help laughing a few times and said, "When will Cao Wenzhao come back?"

Cao Huachun said: "It is expected to return to Beijing in one month and return to Langfang's station."

Zhu Xu nodded, thinking about military affairs and the bureau, with a confident face on his face and said, "Everything is ready, only the east wind is needed..."

Cao Huachun followed Zhu Xu for many years, and since this was not the case, it was still difficult to understand many of Zhu Xu's ideas. He could not guess what the meaning of this sentence "Everything is ready is the east wind."

Zhu Xu thought about it for a while, turned around and walked out of the study room and towards the backyard.

Seeing that Hai Lanzhu's courtyard gate was open, he walked over and the palace maids continued to enjoy the success of their lives.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and walked straight in. Before he could reach the door, he saw Hai Lanzhu and Bumu Butai sisters greeting him and saluting: "I have seen the emperor."

A pair of sisters with different colors, cold and charming, Zhu Xu was already excited, and the evil fire suddenly arose. She smiled on her face, walked up to hold the hands of the two, and said, "Let's go, talk inside."

The two of them have followed Zhu Xu for many years, but they don’t know what his smile means. They are two sisters again for most of the day. Even though the old couple still blushed, they looked at each other and then quickly dispersed. Zhu Xu pulled them in.

Midway through a carriage, Tokugawa Akihide finally arrived at the headquarters one hour later, reported his name and asked to see Zhu Xu.

After some twists and turns, he was taken to the headquarters by the internal supervisor, washed up, changed clothes and waited for Zhu Xu's summoning.

At this time, after a big battle, Zhu Xu hugged the sisters and was chatting.

Hearing that the army had already captured Edo and the Ming army occupied Japan, Bumubutai's eyes lit up slightly, and he snuggled up to Zhu Xu, and said softly, "I heard that Japan has many gold and silver mines. Can it alleviate the emptiness of the imperial treasury?"

The Ming Dynasty court has always been short of money. Even if it has an income of tens of millions of yuan every year, it is still very poor and has a deficit every year.

Bumu Butai's role is to earn money for Zhu Xu. If the Ming Dynasty did not lack money, her status with her son Zhu Ciyi would have been reduced sharply.

Zhu Xu was still groping on the delicate bodies of the two beloved concubines with both hands, not realizing the potential meaning of Bumubutai's words, and explained: "Strictly speaking, currency itself is worthless, and behind it is the credit of a country. Of course, now, it is not possible. This world is still the silver standard. But for the Ming Dynasty, replacing gold and silver is the general trend, so in addition to the necessary reserves, it is more necessary to flow, rather than moldy in the warehouse..."

Bumubutai has always cared about Zhu Xu's words, and she can't understand everything about him, just like now.

Zhu Xu may have noticed it, laughed, and said, "I will talk about this later. What I mean is that since I have money, I have to spread it out in large quantities. Don't hide it. Whether it is domestic or foreign, spend money to create more value..."

Bumubutai still couldn't understand it for a while, so he could only write it down first and whisper a gentle 'um'.

Zhu Xu glanced at Bumu Butai, who looked rosy and still had spring feelings, and said, "Foreign, we are still buying grain and land. In China, we mainly focus on industry, light industry, cloth, silk, etc. You can invest more. Mining, iron smelting, and shipbuilding are also development directions. Don't pursue making money in front of you, you can also look at it for ten or twenty years..."

Bumu Butai was the imperial concubine after all. After listening to Zhu Xu's words, he came over and said softly: "I understand that I will work hard to cooperate with the emperor."

Zhu Xu and the other two covered their bodies with thin blankets, and the delicate bodies of the two women were looming. His hands were still wandering, and his heart was in a bad mood again. He said patiently: "The cabinet will establish a mining department. You will still do the undertaking. We also encourage local governments to join, and we cannot monopolize..."

Hai Lanzhu listened and looked, feeling Zhu Xu's intentions, and began to tease him without hesitation.

Bumubutai noticed his sister's movements, pursed his lips, and gently rubbed Zhu Xu's chest with a jade hand.

Zhu Xuxie was furious and was about to move. A palace maid outside quietly came to the door and whispered: "Your Majesty, Eunuch Cao sent someone to say that Tokugawa Akihiko has arrived at the headquarters."

Zhu Xu lifted the thin blanket and shouted: "Let him wait."

Then the two women shouted softly, and the boudoir muttered softly.

The palace maid blushed and responded in a hurry and stepped out.

It was another hour before Zhu Xu appeared in the study room with a refreshing look, and the nervous Tokugawa Akihide knelt in front of him.

Zhu Xu had already told him that the Ming army had captured Edo, Tokugawa Iemitsu, and Emperor Gomizuo was dead.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea and said, "Do you still believe in your peace?"

Tokugawa Akihide knelt on the ground, with a panic on his face as if the country was destroyed. Listening to Zhu Xu's words, he didn't know how to answer and was already sobbing faintly.

For Tokugawa Aihide, the Ming Dynasty's attack on the Japanese was to avenge the invasion of Toyotomi Hideyoshi many years ago. The responsibility cannot be blamed entirely on the Ming Dynasty, but the Japanese country was destroyed.

Zhu Xu looked at him with a calm eyes and said, "I told you many years ago that peace needs to be guarded. Now, Japan is about to usher in permanent peace. Shouldn't you be happy about it and do something?"

Tokugawa Akihide raised his head and said bitterly: "What else can I do?"

Zhu Xu said: "Back to Japan, I will give you a place and work hard to realize your expectations and don't let me down."

Tokugawa Akihide looked at a loss and didn't know how to answer the conversation.

Zhu Xu picked up the teacup, pondered for a moment, and said, "I want to carry out a thorough reform of Japan. You will be in a critical position, how to promote Japan to achieve permanent peace, without bullying, killing, and war. This is what you will do in the future."

Tokugawa Akihide has no way to think now, he can only listen and not know how to react.

Zhu Xu had some plans for the post-war arrangements of Japan, but when he saw Tokugawa Akihide, his idea became clearer.

"You go, you will know in the future." Zhu Xu said, and then signaled to Cao Huachun not far away.

Cao Huachun stepped forward and said, "Young Master Tokugawa, let's go, the emperor has already arranged it for you."

Tokugawa Akihide's mind was covered in mud, and he kowtowed again, saying, "The villain gave up."

That night, Tokugawa Akihide was taken by Cao Huachun and rushed to the capital.
