Chapter 338: Reaching Eighty
One month later, Zhou Yu decreed that four more people would be recruited into the palace as concubines. One of them was an inevitable royal princess of the former Southern Dynasty. Zhou Yu had no choice but to choose one of them as his concubine. This was also to send a message to the world.
His signals and attitude as emperor.
The second person actually didn't have much choice, but at least he chose someone he was satisfied with, who was the legitimate daughter of a general from the former Southern Dynasties.
Daughters of subordinate generals can all enter the palace, so the daughters of their own generals have to choose one to enter the palace, right? So this is the third one, and the fourth one is the Xiaojiabiyu that Zhou Yu fell in love with on the boat before, and he especially wants to
It's time for someone to tease the girl.
However, except for the two people in front, the two people behind were all people who had been on Zhou Yu's pirate ship before. They were arranged to enter the palace by an imperial edict and became members of Zhou Yu's harem. These four people entered Zhou Yu's harem.
It has doubled and there are eight people.
After entering the palace, when the two new concubines saw Zhou Yu one after another, their little mouths were so surprised that they could not close their mouths, which gave Zhou Yu a unique experience.
After these four new concubines entered the palace, Zhou Yu really enjoyed it, but he didn't forget about the new ones just because they had old people. Accompanying his wife Xin was somewhat enjoyable, but if it was purely for enjoyment, Jin Zhen'er actually stayed overnight.
That's the most enjoyable thing.
Zhou Yu closed the door and lived his own small life, but the affairs of the court did not relax at all. After the unification of the world, there were more and more affairs in the country, but everything was developing in a better direction. Every day
Changes are happening all the time, every day and every year.
After several years of self-cultivation, the world has become more and more prosperous, and the treasury has received more and more taxes every year. Cities have also undergone earth-shaking changes from before, and many unique schools have been established.
They stood up and took on teaching tasks in different aspects. Among them, the professors were not great writers, but old people invited from the countryside. Although these people did not have much knowledge, they had an objective understanding of the world and the skills of craftsmen.
In many respects, it surpasses those so-called old scholars in many ways.
The aristocratic families who had been patient for a long time finally couldn't bear it any longer. They reported again and again that they wanted to conquer here and there, but Zhou Yu kept controlling the rhythm until he felt that it was almost done. Then he agreed to conquer other countries and gathered a group of people.
The first to go out with an army of one million troops was Goryeo.
After the army set off, in just six months, under the leadership of the dragon and tiger armies, the entire Goryeo army was defeated, and the Goryeo capital was directly captured, and all of the royal family with wolf ambitions were killed without leaving a trace.
It was at this time that Zhou Yu issued an imperial edict and promulgated a new policy, which demoted all people except the people of China to inferior status. The colonial policy began to be implemented from this time on.
Then in the next ten years, the entire Ming Dynasty fought everywhere, clearing out the surrounding political countries, and even crossed the sea to the island country. With the power of advanced weapons and the roar of artillery fire, it became the largest overlord in this world.
However, despite the heavy investment in the ten-year campaign, more was gained. In the tone of steady development set by Zhou Yu, no aspect was affected by external wars.
There is no rhetoric and militarism that affects people's livelihood. On the contrary, it is more prosperous than ten years ago. Countless soldiers return from the army with honor and enough money, marry wives and have children and live a prosperous life. There are also countless young people who join the army and want to live a prosperous life.
Earn honors and open up new territories for the country.
The workshops have been changing every year for ten years. With the joint efforts of countless skilled craftsmen, the workshops are getting bigger and bigger. All kinds of new gadgets are created, including new industrial facilities, lathes, new steel-making methods, and mining.
Methods, forging methods, updated guns, etc., and even electricity, lights and wireless communications were developed.
The shipyards located on the seaside also built many giant ships, preparing for the upcoming age of navigation.
In the past ten years, Zhou Yu has also supported the development of the workshop to an unlimited extent. Not only Zhou Yu, but also major forces have seen countless benefits in the workshop. Their requirements are not high, and they do not need those manufacturing tools to invest in the workshop.
When the latest stuff came out, they only needed the obsolete products that Zhou Yu didn't want. Even if they could get the obsolete items, they would be happy and laughing.
With this kind of unlimited investment, and with the divine book information brought by Zhou Yu from the future era, the development of technology cannot be too fast. Countless factories were also built in remote places, and the vigorous transformation process was completely started.
.
By the second decade, the flag of the Ming Dynasty had been flying in many places around the world. More and more people who had received a complete education were involved in the development and transformation of the industrialization, science and technology process, and more and more cross-era creations were created.
were also manufactured.
In the second decade, steam engines were manufactured and mounted on giant ships. In terms of pure weaponry, they could almost reach the level of the early stage of World War I. All processes were done correctly with almost no mistakes.
The direction was almost copied and developed.
High-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes have also begun to take root in the land of China, which has greatly solved the problem of hunger. Not to mention that many of the colonies that came from the war can produce large amounts of food and are supported by countless colonists.
The entire Ming Dynasty, it can be said that the current Ming Dynasty is simply extremely wealthy.
Moreover, the number of overseas kings has exceeded 150, which can be said to dominate the world.
But in just twenty years, it is impossible to complete the road that normally takes at least a hundred years. Therefore, at this point, Zhou Yu did not have much to think about and directly focused on weapons and equipment.
On top, as for other aspects, it is just a matter of convenience.
But in the next two decades, the development of weapons can be slowed down and the focus can be shifted to more important things, such as transportation.
Things like airships and trains were built without much effort, but they were very slow, but they were still very suitable means of transportation.
The prince has been the prince for twenty years. He is smart, steady and filial. His father is kind and his son is filial, and his brother is humble and respectful. It has been more than ten years since he followed Zhou Yu to the court at the age of six. He is a person who has received Zhou Yu's careful attention.
The perfect heir to education.
But this heir was born at the wrong time. Zhou Yu is now in his youth and strength, and is only less than eighteen years older than the prince. Looking at this situation, it will be easy for Zhou Yu to live to sixty, and seventy is not impossible.
possible.
In this way, it seems that the prince is dispensable, which is a bit sad. I am afraid that he may not be able to ascend the throne until he is forty or fifty years old.
And when the land of America was discovered, the prince actually dropped everything in his hands and rushed overseas with his fleet, saying that he wanted to secure a back garden for himself first, so that he could occupy the space for his descendants in the future.
In the future, there will be no place to entrust to the descendants.
After Zhou Yu found out, he just laughed and scolded him, and then started to train his grandson again.
When he was in his forties, Zhou Yu recruited the prince back and left the affairs of state to the prince to manage. He took a group of people and started doing what he had wanted to do for a long time, traveling and paying private visits incognito.
Sometimes Zhou Yu would take the queen and other beauties from the harem, but sometimes he would just take Zhao Sheng, who was now the chief steward of the palace, and some others to go to Jiangnan, Beisei, and the seaside, and also imitate those prodigal emperors.
The passionate emperor enriched his harem when he was in his forties.
At the age of sixty, Zhou Yu abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, and moved to the new palace to take care of his old age. At the age of sixty-three, Shiyi passed away. Zhou Yu, who was already getting older, was still in good health.
Zhou Yu was still standing at the age of seventy. He was still standing at the age of seventy-three. He was still standing at the age of seventy-five. When he was seventy-eight, he was a little unable to stand. However, he still worked hard for two years until he was satisfied at eighty.
