Snail has been adjusting his mentality in the past two days to calm down his irritable mood during this period. Please forgive me.

The stagnant air suddenly flowed, and a burst of laughter suddenly sounded in the hall.

The daimyo exchanged glances. They agreed very much with Yamada Nobunaga’s words. Judging from the map, their land was too small, which could not satisfy their desire for land.

In the past few years, the fighting and killing in the country was just for the sake of cultivated land. Now, with the ambition of Yamada Nobunaga, they have set their sights on the huge land opposite.

After reaching an agreement, the other daimyo left one after another. At this time, Yamada Nobunaga left behind a young man who seemed to be gentle and gentle.

He said: “Although the great names all agree with my statement, I am afraid I still need a reason to convince the soldiers.”

The young man said with a relaxed expression: “General, it is actually very simple. We can make up a reason, because according to ancient books, we are Qin Shihuang sent us here, that is to say, we are the orthodox residents of that land, and the people in the land of Dayu have been ruled by foreigners several times, and their blood is no longer pure, so we are the real residents of this land. The masters, and even if they are all killed, they don’t deserve sympathy.”

“Hahaha… Yes, yes, just tell the daimyo and the soldiers this.” Yamada Nobunaga is very happy, and now he has every reason to treat Dayu. War started.

But before that, he needed to occupy a piece of territory in Goryeo so that they could gain a foothold.

…

Qingzhou, Prince Qi’s Mansion.

The four of Xiao Mingzheng and Fei Yue’er ate the carrots cooked by the cook. The peach meat was wrapped in sticky sugar, making everyone eat it very sweetly.

The green radish’s mouth was full, and she stared straight at the plate, wishing she had two mouths.

Fei Yue’er and Aster ate elegantly, but they also had little resistance to such delicious dishes and couldn’t stop eating them.

Xiao Huan had a sad look on her face. Her teeth had been swollen in the past two days. She could only taste such delicious food with pain and joy.

“Your Highness, I didn’t expect that there are so many ways to eat white sugar. This is really an experience for me.” Fei Yue’er chuckled softly.

Xiao Ming was also satisfied. This silk drawing reminded him of the modern taste.

After patting his full belly, Xiao Ming stood up and said to Fei Yue’er: “This is just the tip of the iceberg. I will prepare delicious food for you when I am free.”

The four of them laughed when they heard this. got up.

Fei Yue’er was a little worried and asked, “Your Highness, are you planning to go somewhere else again?”

“That’s not true, I’m talking about the steam engine.” Xiao Ming said.

Mentioning this, her mouth was stuffed with green radish, and her eyes suddenly opened wide. She swallowed the food in her mouth hard, and then said to Xiao Ming: “Your Highness, I forgot to tell your Highness this matter. Lin Wentao I have been trying to figure out how to use the steam engine to drive the textile machine in the textile workshop for two days, but in my opinion, this new textile machine is already very good.”

Xiao Ming nodded. The practical application from the steam engine to the factory also needs a process, and now Lin Wentao. This process is being implemented.

He said to Lu Luo: “You cooperate with Lin Wentao. If their steam engine is really combined with the textile machine, your weaving efficiency will increase a lot.”

Lu Luo nodded obediently. Although she didn’t understand these things, she had learned from the previous textile machines. With today’s textile machines, the output of their textile mills has increased several times.

If the efficiency of the textile mills continues to improve as Xiao Ming said, then the fabrics they produce may be able to meet the needs of the people of Qingzhou City.

Aster looked at Pothos with some envy and said: “Pothos can now make a lot of money for His Highness, but the slaves sing and dance all day long and can’t make much money at all.”

At this point, Aster pouted.

Xiaohuan said: “You are all great. My wife and I have nothing to do all day long. It’s very boring.” Ziyuan said

: “Your Majesty has a noble status, how can she be busy in the market like us? As long as she can continue to draw Just bring out new underwear.”

After thinking about it for a while, Fei Yue’er, Luluo and Ziyuan became familiar with each other, and they also knew that they were people close to Concubine Zhen, and that she had a gentle personality and was very good to her servants.

The four of them play together every day when they have free time.

Fei Yue’er smiled softly. She looked at Xiao Ming and said, “Your Highness, you see that Xiao Huan is already complaining about me. Why don’t you let your concubine share some things with you?”

Xiao Ming shook his head. , it is said that these three women are a drama, he has seen it before, but he really needs these women to complete something for him, and that is the issue of the uniforms of the Qingzhou Army.

Ever since he came up with the Qingzhou Army’s German-style military uniforms, the more he looked at the Qingzhou Army’s shoes, the more he disliked them, because just a pair of shoes could greatly damage the image of the army.

As the saying goes, military uniforms are also combat effectiveness. He felt that he could not continue like this. This time he not only wanted to buy leather boots for the army, but also added steel helmets for the Qingzhou Army.

He comes from modern times, so he naturally understands that helmets are very helpful in reducing soldiers’ casualties. In the current era, few armies of many countries are equipped with steel helmets, and even those in Europe only wear ordinary cloth hats.

Once the Qingzhou Army is equipped with steel helmets, it will definitely be able to greatly reduce the mortality rate in musket fire. After all, the protective effect of helmets has been tested on the battlefield.

The shortage of helmets was a matter of the military workshop, but the leather boots were a matter of Luluo. Moreover, because of the establishment of the Oversight Council and the Guard Station, he also wanted to develop a set of uniforms for these two independent institutions.

At the same time, Bowen College and the public schools in various states and counties also need a group of student clothing. This is not a one-off move, but the beginning of regularization and professionalization.

Thinking of this, he told Fei Yue’er about these things and asked her to be responsible for the design of the uniforms.

During this time, Fei Yue’er was quite addicted to the design of clothing. She immediately became excited when she heard this. She said, “Leave the clothing to my concubine.”

“The leather boots belong to the slave.” Luluo said with a smile.

Xiao Ming nodded with satisfaction. For him, now he wanted to mobilize all the labor force in the feudal country. It was said that women could hold up half the sky, so he naturally had to make use of women’s labor force.

And since he was going to go on the road of reform, he naturally could no longer play the trick of saying that women without talent are virtuous, so he said to Fei Yue’er: “Princess, I have an idea. Now that the public relationship has been established, should I also “

Women can

enter school!” Fei Yue’er was shocked. After all, this incident is too shocking. Although Qingzhou is different from other places, the mentality of men being superior to women has not fundamentally changed, and women are not allowed to go through the second door. The unforgettable habit is also firmly ingrained in the hearts of the people.

Fei Yue’er’s expression was caught in Xiao Ming’s eyes, and he smiled and said: “Princess, don’t be anxious, I am not asking women to become public servants, but I hope that the princess can recruit some smart women to teach them.”
