Luo Xin looked at Zhou Xian again and said lightly: "Do you think they are scholars? Are they still worthy of being scholars? Do they still have the etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame of scholars? Don't say that they are not worthy of being scholars, they are not worthy of being scholars."

After saying that, he shouted at the guards: "What are you waiting for? Do you want me to do it yourself?"

“Hula…”

When the guards heard Luo Xin say this, they were really scared. They stepped forward and grabbed the thirty or so people and dragged them outside.

"Luo Xin, you are a thief, you must not be good..."

The more than thirty people cursed, and Cui Hao, who had taken a step, wanted to ask for love, stopped his steps and his face turned pale. As Luo Xin said, ungrateful people, let alone scholars, were not worthy of being a scholar. Fang Zigen and Zhou Xian were also angry.

Soon, the heads of more than thirty people were sent up. Looking at the bloody heads, the hall was silent. The civil servants all looked pale, but the military officers were all excited. They felt that Luo Xin did not raise the civil servant high like the Ming Dynasty and trample the generals tightly under their feet. They felt that the spring of the military officers was coming.

After the tide ebbed, there were only six people in the hall, Luo Xin, Luo Ye, Luo Sheng, Fang Zigen, Zhou Xian and Cui Hao. Luo Xin looked at the five people in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief:

"Do you think I've done too much?"

The five people looked at each other, and Fang Zigen whispered: "Your Majesty, I think a wise monarch should give my subordinates the opportunity to reform themselves."

"Do you think I'm not doing anything for a wise ruler?" Luo Xin leaned his back on the chair and asked softly.

"It is a mistake to punish without teaching!" Fang Zigen said: "They are rebelling against the crime, but Your Majesty has never been to Taiwan and cannot live with his ministers day and night. When they make mistakes, they will not have the chance to get his Majesty's correction."

Speaking of this, his voice lowered again: "Your Majesty killed them when he first arrived in Taiwan, and he had passed a little."

"It is a mistake to punish without teaching!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "You are right. But do you really think I didn't teach them? I have taught them in the hall, but they have lost the foundation of being a human being. Such people cannot be kept, and staying can only be a disaster."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin paused for a moment and said to Luo Sheng and Luo Ye: "Do you know why I have been resisting being an emperor?"

"Why?" Luo Sheng couldn't help but blurted out. Even Fang Zigen, Zhou Xian and Cui Hao couldn't help but look at Luo Xin.

"It is actually not difficult to be a good emperor. As long as you are kind, you will not be a tyrant. However, such a good emperor is not a blessing for the people compared to civil and military officials in the court. Therefore, it is too difficult to be a good emperor and a career."

"I want to be a good emperor and a career?" Luo Sheng asked softly.

"Yes!" Luo Xin stood up from the chair and said, "Let's go to the Imperial Study room, let's have tea and talk."

When he arrived at the Imperial Study Room, six people took their seats and someone came up to deliver tea. Luo Xin continued to say:

"In fact, for the court, even the Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty is a good emperor. He doesn't care about why he is devoted to seeking the truth and gives everything to the civil servants to take care of. But, look at what the world is already in chaos?"

"If an emperor wants to achieve something, realize his ideals, make the country he has established prosper, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, he must take everything into his hands. A country can only have one voice. However, the Ming Dynasty called out the title of royal family and scholars and officials to rule the world together. The literati of the Ming Dynasty expanded to the extreme. Looking at thousands of years of history, there has never been such a strange phenomenon. Therefore, if an emperor wants to become a generation of wise rulers, since he considers the interests of civil and military officials in the court, he must also consider the people under the court.

Too tired!”

"Forget it, I won't say it anymore. I once said that people never live for themselves. Since you have let you follow me, I will always give you a piece of world. Fang Zigen, Zhou Xian, Cui Hao."

"I'm here!" The three of them stood up, Luo Xin waved his hand and asked them to sit down, and then said, "I killed those thirty or so people, which will not affect Taiwan's construction, right?"

"This is not true!" Fang Zigen said: "They didn't help much before, but instead helped him worse."

"That's good!" Luo Xin nodded, then looked at Luo Sheng and said, "Cousin, who are you going to let Cui Qiao go?"

Luo Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Let my father go."

"Okay!" Luo Xin looked at Luo Ye and said, "Uncle is going to meet Xu Hai, be more careful."

"Don't worry, your Majesty, the old minister has fulfilled his mission."

"Your Majesty!" Luo Sheng suddenly said, "Can you get another Qianli Milestone? There is one now. My father and I take turns to use it. This Qianli Milestone is really important in the sea."

Luo Xin nodded and said, "I'll find a way." Then he looked at Fang Zigen and the other two and said, "My cousin has already told me about the military affairs on the way here. You can tell me about the affairs of the government."

"Yes, your Majesty."

Fang Zigen, Zhou Xian and Cui Hao told Luo Xin about all aspects of the government affairs and Taiwan construction. Hearing that everything in Taiwan was booming and clear in structure, Luo Xin couldn't help but feel happy and said to Fang Zigen, Zhou Xian and Cui Hao:

"Thank you three."

"Don't dare!"

The three of them said in unison, but then hesitated on Fang Zigen's face, and Luo Xin smiled and said with a smile:

"Brother Fang, what's the matter?"

Fang Zigen whispered: "Your Majesty, now with your support and the materials plundered by King Han Hai, Taiwan is not short of national creation. However, this is only for the time being. Even if King Han Hai can constantly plunder the pirates' supplies, what if Xu Hai, Xin Wulang and Wang Zhi are destroyed? Those supplies may have just been enough for us to establish the entire Taiwan. We cannot only build one city and the port fortifications planned in front of us. After looking at the topographic map of the entire Taiwan, we must build at least eight cities and four fortifications. The materials we plundered are probably enough, and we cannot move too much of the materials on Wang Zhi's side. We cannot abandon Wang Zhi's thirty-six islands. We must include the thirty-six islands into our territory. In this way, when we have built Taiwan and after the thirty-six islands, we will have no supplies.

What do we use to maintain the country’s functioning?

If it were before, when the Ming Dynasty did not have a Maritime Department, we could directly monopolize the sea area, buy the merchants of the vassal states and sell the materials from the Ming Dynasty to the Daming State, and then buy the materials from the Ming Dynasty to the Daming State. But now the Ming Dynasty already has a Maritime Department, and the Maritime Department is still under your jurisdiction..."

Luo Xin frowned slightly, and Fang Zigen continued: "The main reason is that there is nothing worth trading with the Ming Dynasty in Taiwan. The most abundant things are fruits, and these fruits cannot be transported to the Ming Dynasty. Those fruits will rot before they can be transported to the Ming Dynasty."

Luo Xin began to recall what local specialties were in Taiwan in history. After recalling for a long time, it seemed that in Taiwan, besides seafood and fruits, there were only frozen oolong tea and sorghum wine, which was famous.

Forget sorghum wine, it seems that there is no agricultural product like sorghum in the entire Ming Dynasty. Moreover, Luo Xin vaguely remembers that sorghum first appeared in Africa.

You can study the frozen oolong tea, it is a good business. But relying solely on a frozen oolong will definitely not work. What are the many in Taiwan?

fruit!

But as Fang Zigen said, this fruit cannot be transported to the Ming Dynasty...

wine!

Luo Xin suddenly jumped in his heart. Fruit wine appeared in Chinese history very early, such as "Liangzhou Ci" written by Wang Han of the Tang Dynasty.

A luminous cup of grape wine, and the pipa is urged to drink.

Don’t laugh at me when you are drunk on the battlefield. How many people have returned from war since ancient times

It is about wines produced in the Western Regions, but the secret recipe for this wine production in China does not exist. Moreover, Luo Xin dares to conclude that ancient wines are definitely not as good as later generations, because in the long history of thousands of years, the secret recipes of wine must be constantly being improved.

Although Luo Xin did not know the secret recipes of the eight major French wineries in later generations, he still knew the methods of making various ordinary fruit wines. In his previous life, as a literati, he also searched for brewing methods on Baidu. He brewed various fruit wines by himself, and then called friends an elegant thing. He firmly believed that even the extremely ordinary method of brewing fruit wines in later generations would have to be much better for the taste and clarity of those transported back from the Western Regions today, selling sky-high fruit wines.

This is a way to make a fortune! And... packaging is very important.

Luo Xin, who came from later generations, naturally knew the importance of packaging. How can he show the dignity of fruit wine?

Color!

Without waiting for drinking, you can attract elegant people as long as you see the color.

Then how to show your beauty?

Glass container!

Luo Xin's mind has been completely opened.

The clear and transparent glass container is filled with fruit wine of various bright colors. Just looking at the glass container and the colors will arouse people's blessings and feel a sense of dignity.

Glass!

Luo Xin was completely excited. Even in this era, even in the Western Regions, the glass in this era could not reach the clear and transparent way of later generations. The method of making glass is not difficult. As long as people who have read time travel novels in later generations will curiously check the method of making glass online. Luo Xin is no exception. Of course, he knows how to make glass, and the glass he made must exceed the level of glass made in any country in this era.

He knew that in this era, the price of glass, glass could be made into various utensils, wine glasses, plates, ornaments, trinkets, etc., and it was a reform of home decoration. Today, the Ming Dynasty still had stickers on the windows. If they were all replaced with glass, it would be a huge market, and it was waiting to unify Taiwan, Japan, and Ryukyu. At that time, Luo Xin had a huge fleet. Luo Xin could send this high-quality glass cloud to other vassal states, and even traveled far to Europe to start a real voyage. With his own fleet for sea trade, Luo Xin no longer had to worry about money. And once he had money, he could accelerate the improvement of ships and research on guns and cannons. Even Luo Xin believed that in his lifetime, he could see steam engines, and then see real steel sea ships, real guns and cannons, trains...

Well, by the way, the Qianli Miles Miles mentioned by the uncle, after having glass, these are all trivial matters.

Seeing Luo Xin browsing there, the people in the room knew that Luo Xin had a good idea again, but Luo Xin was alone there, without saying that, which made these people scratch their heads in a hurry.

"His Majesty……"

Everyone looked at Luo Ye, because only Luo Ye was Luo Xin's elder here, Luo Ye was also curious and called out. Luo Xin woke up from his infinite imagination, and said with confidence:

"Don't worry, we will only become richer and will not have any money."

"Have your Majesty come up with an idea?" Fang Zigen asked excitedly.

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded, and then said, "Let this be put in advance."

Then he turned to Luo Ye and said, "Uncle, you and your cousin are ready to leave Taiwan and look for Xu Hai. I think as long as you keep an eye on Wang Zhi, you can find Xu Hai. The first step we want to accomplish is to become the overlord of the sea. If you want to become the overlord of the sea, it is crucial to annihilate Xu Hai, Xin Wulang and Wang Zhi."

"Okay, let's go now."

Luo Xin nodded, Luo Ye and Luo Sheng stood up, went to find Wang Cuiqiao, and then began to arrange various matters and prepare to go to the battle. Luo Xin looked at Fang Zigen and said:

"I remember there were wine-making people and kiln-burning people in the craftsmen?"

"Yes!" Fang Zigen and the other two nodded quickly and Zhou Xian said with some uncertainty: "Your Majesty, do you want to make wine and fire ceramics?"

"I want to make wine, but I don't fire ceramics." Luo Xin smiled.

"Wine brewing?" Cui Hao frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, although Taiwan is not small, it has relatively little arable land..."

Luo Xin naturally understood his meaning and smiled and said, "I am not using grain to make wine."

"Don't you use grain to make wine?" The three of them looked at Luo Xin in surprise.

"Fruit!" Luo Xin said lightly.

The three of them looked stunned, then sparks leapt in their eyes. Cui Hao said excitedly: "Grape wine luminous cup?"

"Not just wine, all fruits can be made, we can make all kinds of fruit wines. In this way, the fruits here can be used, and it will become a pillar industry for us."

"Can all kinds of fruits be made?" Fang Zigen still didn't believe it.

"Of course!" Luo Xin nodded firmly.

"But... we don't have a secret recipe for brewing." Zhou Xian frowned.

"I have it!" Luo Xin said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, do you have a recipe?"

"Um!"

"Your Majesty, you just said that you weren't firing ceramics?"

"Glass!" Luo Xin smiled.

"Your Majesty, you have a recipe for burning glass."

"Yes!" Luo Xin stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go to the workshop tomorrow. By the way, the status and treatment of those craftsmen are treated according to the rules I set at the beginning?"
