The haze in Xiao Ming's heart gradually dissolved, and he had to say that the attitude of the two Kong family was very much in line with his appetite, but the beauty of the words was one thing, and the most important thing was how to fulfill the promise.

Getting up and walking in front of the two, he said: "Since Ge Yiren invited you, you must know what I want, as long as you do it, I will keep an eye on it."

As he spoke, Xiao Ming looked directly at Kong Huairen's father and son.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Kong will definitely concentrate on comprehending the emperor's neo-Confucianism when he goes back, so as to share the emperor's worries." Kong Huairen bowed and said.

Xiao Ming nodded, he looked at Kong Shengze, "I'm glad that you can go to Qingzhou University, and when you return from your studies, I will leave you a good place, of course, I will also re-admit Confucianism, but this Confucian student is not another Confucian student, you should understand what I mean." ”

Kong Shengze bowed his head slightly, there is no doubt that these Confucian students are all new Confucian students.

The mustard was untied in one day, and the father and son of the Kong family were also greatly relieved, and Kong Huairen was also bold, he said: "The emperor's merits cover the ages, the northern expedition to the barbarians, the eastern expedition to Goryeo, and the pacification of the civil strife in Dayu. ”

Xiao Ming laughed, he said: "It's still a little early, and it's not too late for me to calm down the world, and Neo-Confucianism has not yet been promoted, so it will be a joke for me to climb Mount Tai at this time." ”

The pressure in Kong Huairen's heart is a little greater, and he must hurry up this time, thinking about it, he said: "Your Majesty, Kong has always been very interested in this newspaper, and I hope that the emperor can allow Kong to promote Neo-Confucianism through the newspaper, so that it will be twice the result with half the effort." ”

Xiao Ming was naturally happy, "This is no problem, I still want to publish today's meeting with the Holy Father in the newspaper to show that I have no suspicion with the Kong family." ”

A smile welled up on Kong Huairen's swarthy face, now he was completely relieved, in his opinion, as long as he complied with the emperor's wishes, the Kong family would always have a lofty status in the future.

"So good." Kong Huairen said happily.

Discussing the matter of Neo-Confucianism openly and honestly, Xiao Ming told the two of them some details before letting the two leave.

"Congratulations to the emperor, now you have another help." Pang Yukun said with emotion.

Xiao Ming smiled: "Don't you blame me for being biased towards the Legalists? ”

Pang Yukun has always been known for respecting the law, he said: "Both Confucianism and Legalism take the maintenance of the royal family as their own responsibility, and the ministers were worried that the emperor would not be able to deal with it, but now it seems that the ministers are too worried, so there is no idea of grievance." ”

"In this way, I will be relieved, from now on you will prepare for the conquest of the Chu State, the Great Yu State has been divided for a long time, and it is time to reunite into one."

The cabinet ministers were all aware of Xiao Ming's next plan, and the victory of the Northern Expedition also contributed to the martial spirit of the imperial court, so they always had a positive attitude towards the war.

In response, Pang Yukun said goodbye and left.

The imperial study was quiet, Xiao Ming turned to look at the map hanging on the wall, now a large area of territory in the north of the Great Yu Kingdom had belonged to him, and his rule south of the Yangtze River was still very weak, and this was something he could not tolerate.

However, before starting a war, he needed to continue to strengthen the industrial level of the Great Chongqing and produce more diverse industrial products, some of which were essential to the war, that is, military food.

The biggest consumption in the Northern Expedition was still logistical supplies, and even some food had rotted before it arrived on the battlefield, causing great waste, and in his opinion, the backward grain and grass transportation of the feudal army seriously hindered the progress of the war.

Therefore, he had the idea of producing military food, such as military canned food, very early on, because it is relatively easy to achieve only this kind of canned food at present.

In contemporary Europe, the invention of canned food was in 1804, when a Frenchman who dealt in candied food discovered that food sealed in glass containers would not spoil easily if properly heated, and he was greatly inspired by it.

In this way, food can be preserved for a longer period of time without spoiling.

It is precisely with canned food that the long-term long-distance combat of European armies has become a fact, and it can be said that whether or not canned food can be mass-produced and popularized is an important indicator to measure whether a country's military strength has entered modernization.

Now Xiao Ming's army is transforming into a modern army in all aspects, and this food will naturally change as well.

Thinking of this, he sat down and drafted a holy decree, asking the Shaofu Supervisor to establish a canned food production workshop in the Great Yu Kingdom, and he also made strict requirements on the types of canned food.

In terms of the current situation in Chongqing, it is naturally impossible to produce canned beef, which is too wasteful, but it is still possible to rely on the production of canned trout from Dengzhou Fishery and canned potatoes, canned dry rice, and canned dried vegetables from the agricultural production of Qingzhou Prefecture.

In addition, the manufacture of biscuits and bread was put on the agenda for military rations, since both could be kept for a year or more.

In addition to canned food, he also ordered the Shaofu to supervise the production of individual backpacks, so that soldiers could carry more food, greatly reducing the pressure on logistics, and making the army more suitable for expeditions.

The holy decree arrived at the Shaofu Supervisor, and Qin Rui, as the chief official of the Shaofu Prison, immediately ordered the organization of craftsmen to establish a canning workshop.

After three years of further study at the former Bowen College, he successfully succeeded his father Qin Chengming and became an official in charge of industry in the Great Chongqing State.

"You go to the glass workshop immediately now, and ask the glass workshop to build a branch factory in Dengzhou to produce glass bottles, you are responsible for organizing the production of backpacks, and you go to the Department of Agriculture to let them cooperate in providing ingredients, and the emperor will see the first batch of canned food in three months, go, go!" Qin Rui looked anxious.

The officials of the Shaofu Eunuch have long been accustomed to Qin Rui's style, but this is also a helpless thing, and now the greatest pressure in the Great Yu State is the Shaofu Eunuch, and every three or five emperors will have a holy decree to come over and ask them to mobilize resources to form a workshop.

As soon as there was a delay, Qin Rui was called to the palace to talk, and the result was that he was scolded by Xiao Ming.

After arranging all the things, Qin Rui sighed, he was painful and happy, although he was a little busy, but the young eunuch has changed from the previous idle demolition to a hot official office, after all, in order to speed up the construction of industry, the young eunuch was given a lot of special rights.

This right allowed him to mobilize all the resources to build the missing industry.

According to his statistics, there are now more than 50 kinds of industrial products in the industrial system of Dayu Kingdom, and this number is still increasing, but this is not enough, because the list of all industrial systems given by the emperor is very complicated.
