Chapter 217 The Three Generations of Qiantang Yu Family(2/2)
All of this requires the Ming Dynasty to have a stable and virtuous environmental atmosphere within it.
Zhu Zhanji watched Yu Qian staying everyone on a quiet street and said, "Longjiang Shipyard and Dagula Shipyard are all building new-style transport ships, bigger, deeper, faster!"
Yu Qian asked: "I heard that the warships built by Longjiang Shipyard this time have begun to abandon the flat bottoms in the past and tend to be sharp bottoms?"
Zhu Zhanji smiled and nodded: "The sharp bottom can adapt to sea navigation. Although cargo does not need to be flat, it is far better than the treasure ships used in naval battles."
At this time, the shipbuilding industry in the Ming Dynasty was also standing on the top of the world.
Among Zheng He's treasure ship fleet, the largest treasure ship can reach 44 zhang long and 18 zhang wide (i.e. 146.67 meters long and 50.94 meters wide).
However, due to craftsmanship and other issues, the treasure ships at this time were all flat bottoms.
Strictly speaking, it is not suitable for real deep-sea and ocean navigation. Moreover, the ship is slow.
The sharp bottom breaks the waves, although the cargo is not as good as the flat bottom, the speed is fast, and it will be invincible to chase the enemy in naval battles.
After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji added: "The big ship is in the sea, but for the Japanese pirates, there are also small boats and speedboats being built this time. Whether it is real or fake, it has an advantage on the sea surface. If we want to get through it once and for all, in addition to people, the speedboats we ride in will also be far superior to the Japanese pirates."
Yu Qian didn't understand the maritime affairs and warships. He shook his head and suddenly shone in his eyes.
"Taisun, here."
Yu Qian stopped.
Zhu Zhanji followed his sight and visited the past.
I saw a quiet courtyard gate in this secluded alley, which was slightly open.
There is a plaque on the door and the words "Si Xuetang".
It should be the Yu family who got the name for leaving the other courtyard.
Yu Qian also explained: "In the past, my subordinates entered the clan school here and followed my father to study. Over the years, the clan school has moved places, but the name of the Si Academy has never been taken down. Although it is not exquisite and luxurious, it is better than elegant and quiet, and there is no trouble around."
Everyone did not stop and followed Yu Qian into the School of So Si.
As soon as you enter Si Academy, you will bypass the screen wall.
Zhu Zhanji saw that there were already several people in the front yard waiting for a long time.
An old man in the lead, with a middle-aged man, hurriedly bowed and bowed.
The servants of Yu Mansion behind them knelt all over the ground.
"The old minister Yu Wenming brought his dog son, and the servants of the Yu family, and met the grandson." The old man in charge was Yu Qian's grandfather Yu Wenming. Although he was an elderly person, he was very healthy and had a loud voice.
Zhu Zhanji hurried forward to support the old man and said with a smile: "The old man, Hongwu, is an official, is an elder of our palace, and there is no need to be too polite. This time, due to the government affairs and customs, I disturb your mansion. I hope the old man will forgive you."
Yu Wenming endured the feeling of licking his calf in his heart, but looked at Yu Qian, who was close to him, and took Zhu Zhanji's hand and walked in: "The old minister is in Qiantang, but he often heard that although the grandson is young, he has many wise voices. He even swayed to the southern border and admired the prestige of the Ming Dynasty. The old minister didn't want to see the grandson with his own eyes in his later years."
The middle-aged man next to him was not someone else, but Yu Qian's father, Yu Yanzhao, who had been living in Qiantang and studying.
He said with a righteous expression: "I heard that the court ordered General Sun to take charge of the destruction of Japanese destruction along the coast, and even more, he wanted to come to my family. He was excited and frightened that the Tian family loved him."
Zhu Zhanji wanted to hide from Yu's family. When Wang Jinghong returned, this incident was passed on to the Yu's family early in the morning.
Zhu Zhanji smiled and said, "Uncle must not say this. The Yu family is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and raises such talents as Yu Qian for the court. It is the court who wants to thank his uncle!"
Yu Qian, who had always been a young military guard experience, felt relieved when he heard Zhu Zhanji say this later.
However, Yu Yanzhao snorted coldly: "The grandson is going to destroy me, this is a useless dog. It's just because he is smart enough to steal important positions."
Yu Wenming, who was pulling Zhu Zhanji in the side, walked a little slower.
His son was scolding his grandson. Although the old man loved him, he couldn't refute in front of his grandson.
Zhu Zhanji smiled: "If Yu Qian had no ability, how could I bring him by my side? After two years, the court will be encouraging, and I will still wait to see him take the title of the Golden List!"
When Yu Yanzhao heard Zhu Zhanji say this, his face calmed down a little.
In fact, he belittled Yu Qian so much just because he felt that Yu Qian should do the right way.
For Yu family, what is the right way?
Of course it is the imperial examination career!
At this time, I saw the grandson saying that I would also breathe a sigh of relief when I saw Yu Qian’s imperial examination list.
Seeing that the grandson gave a step and stabilized his son who was not willing to go to the position of officialdom, Yu Wenming also breathed a sigh of relief.
He smiled and said, "I heard that the grandson likes delicious food. Today I heard that the grandson is coming to the house. The old minister specially asked someone to prepare a meal carefully. The grandson of Esau was exhausted from the road."
Zhu Zhanji said: "Sir, please!"
