Chapter 1591 father and son chat
Zhu Cixuan went outside the door to greet Chongzhen: "Why does Father have time to come to me to see?"
Chongzhen rolled his eyes: "It's not your big housekeeper. You asked me to build this zoo. Should you pay for it?"
It’s not easy for me to work hard to make money. I have to support my family. Your younger brothers and sisters will be vassals in the future, so I, a father, always express my feelings?
Although there is a slight surplus now, the money in the Ming Dynasty is becoming less and less valuable. Who knows how much this financial situation will be worth in ten years?
Can you tell Zhu Jirun that he should not worry about my little money?"
Zhu Cixuan touched his nose: "I blamed me for this. I didn't make it clear. This money should indeed be paid from the inner treasury. I will tell Zhu Jirun.
You can calm your breath and don’t get angry. Come and sit down and rest."
Chongzhen sat on the chair prepared by Gui Xi, looked at Zhu Ciyang beside him and sighed: "You butler is really competent. I have never seen anyone like this!"
Zhu Cilang also nodded: "Yes, if it weren't for Zhu Jirun, prices might have soared in the first two years of the Ming Dynasty. At least it's more than double now, and I don't have the money to start a war in advance."
Seeing Zhu Cixuan mentioning the war, Chongzhen also asked: "How is there any news on the front line?"
Zhu Cixuan smiled and said, "Everything goes well, it's good news at present, and the departments are moving forward according to the plan."
Chongzhen said, "It's good to win a big battle, it's good to win!"
The two were chatting while sitting, Gui Xi was happily handing over a telegram outside: "Your Majesty, the Suez Telegram has destroyed the Red Sea Fleet and is now landing to launch an attack on the Fortress Group of the Suez Canal Estuary."
Zhu Cilang took it and took a look, nodded calmly: "Very good, keep paying attention, copy it to Yousi."
If Chongzhen hadn't been here, Zhu Cilang could have jumped up happily, since Chongzhen was here, then Zhu Cilang could only be a little reserved. If he wanted to be the emperor of the ages, he would naturally have to collapse in front of him without changing his color.
Chongzhen had no idol burden. He heard the news and brimmed his hands with his hands: "Okay, if you have this news, it will be clear!"
Zhu Cilang's eyes turned: "Gui Xi, go and prepare some wine and food. I will have a few drinks with my father at noon."
It has been a long time since the father and son sat down and had dinner and chatted alone together, and it has been more than two years.
Chongzhen did not refuse, and even showed a satisfied smile on his face.
The wine and dishes were served quickly, two soups with four cold and eight hot, plus a pot of warm rice wine. The two sat down. Chongzhen looked at the dishes on the table and sighed: "I didn't expect that you still keep your previous habits now, and there are only more than ten dishes to serve guests."
Zhu Cixuan poured Chongzhen a glass of wine: "If you make too much, you can't finish it. If you only make it, you can't eat one-third of it. Instead of being extravagant and wasteful, you should eat what you like for every meal.
Come to Father, I will give you a cup.”
Chongzhen picked up the wine glass: "Congratulations to the Ming Dynasty!"
After drinking the first drink, the two felt a little warmer. Looking at the weather outside the window, Chongzhen sighed: "Every time the spring is cold in the first lunar month, this year's spring is particularly cold. I don't know how the people in the world can live."
Zhu Cilang smiled: "The Ming Dynasty is now territorially all over the world. Some northern hemispheres experience cold winter like the Ming Dynasty, while the southern hemisphere is in midsummer and hot summer. Some places have floods and droughts continue in some places.
It is probably difficult to treat the world with the weather in the capital. The disaster relief and disaster relief departments of the Ming Dynasty almost all year round, and they work hard regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter. But the locations of work are different."
Chongzhen also nodded and looked at the braised rabbit on the table: "Yes, I heard that rabbits in the southern continent are still in disaster this summer.
The newspaper said that many wolves and foxes were raised. Those foxes and wolves had gained weight for several laps and could not run. Because there were too many rabbits, they hid at the entrance of the cave and opened their mouths and jumped into their mouths?"
Zhu Cixuan pulled the corner of his mouth: "That's not so exaggerated, but it's not easy to find wolves in the Ming Dynasty. In recent years, hunting rifles have become popular, and many militia and reserve personnel like to hunt in the mountains during training.
This has led to a sharp decrease in wild animals in the Ming Dynasty. Only one thousand wolves and six hundred foxes have been transported this year. Compared with the number of rabbits there, these wolves and foxes are like dropping the bucket."
Chongzhen asked worriedly: "I heard that the grasslands over there have been deteriorated by rabbits, and the grasslands have become deserts. The desert area over there is not small. If you continue to eat like this, will the southern continent become a desert continent?"
Zhu Cilang nodded: "I do have this concern. Recently, the Ming Dynasty has begun to collect wolves from Central Asia, New World, Africa and other places, and strive to make the southern continent's wolf packs exceed 50,000 next year."
Chongzhen shook his head: "This is really rare. A good rabbit will be flooded if it changes places. Why don't cattle and sheep spread there?
If there are too many wolves in the future, wouldn’t it become a wolf’s nest there again? Be careful in other places.”
Zhu Cilang smiled bitterly: "There is already a problem. New World is still sending a message this morning. Carp and black fish are already flooding in the river, and there is no way to submit a memorial to ask for countermeasures.
As for the Southern Continent to turn into a wolf's nest, there is no way to do this. If there are too many rabbits, kill rabbits, and if there are too many wolves, then kill wolfs. Since the ecological balance of nature itself cannot be maintained, there is no way to continue to conduct manual intervention.
Fortunately, wolves are much bigger than rabbits, and the wolves don’t know how to dig holes, so they need to be much easier to clean up.”
Chongzhen looked up in surprise: "Can fish flood? Why don't people over there eat it?"
Zhu Cilang spread his hands: "Except for the people of the Ming Dynasty, the rest of the people have never seen carp or black fish, so they don't eat it. However, there are not many people of the Ming Dynasty there, and they can't eat it even if they eat it."
Chongzhen laughed: "Then the price of salted fish will be cheaper again in the future, just the same price as a rabbit!"
Zhu Cilang touched his nose: "I don't have to worry about eating anything, it's just a waste of manpower to catch and transport. Some places around the world lack food, let alone meat like fish and rabbits.
When the war is over, I plan to open up some bans to allow some of the population to move and migrate between continents. At that time, the ecological environment of all continents can undergo strong manual intervention, and the proliferation of species should be reduced.
Compared to the flood of these edible animals, the flood of plants and insects is actually more terrifying. One of these two things is that they have a wide distribution area and the other is that it is difficult to kill. The ecological disaster caused by flooding is serious."
Chongzhen said oh, he had no clear understanding of this kind. Seeing that Chongzhen was not interested in this topic, Zhu Cixuan turned to other topics: "What's interesting about my father's recent reading of the newspaper?"
