Zhou Shuren touched his face, "Sir, why do you look at Xiaguan like this? Xiaguan has become younger?"

Li Zhao pulled Zhou Shuren's sleeve and said, "Come on, get closer, let's have a good conversation."

Zhou Shuren, "...I can't do it, the junior official has to go back to the Ministry of Revenue to prepare the money."

Why does Lord Li like to touch his hands and feet so much? Especially his official uniform!

Li Zhao did not let go and lowered his voice: "The last period of the previous dynasty was incompetent and had always blocked the coastline. Not to mention the navy, there was no ship, and we had no experience in naval operations."

Zhou Shuren was speechless, "Sir, you know it without saying that the officials are clear."

The previous dynasty was a turning point in history, deviating from history. The founding emperor was very awesome and developed marine trade. Unfortunately, the only ones were the founding emperor, and then they kept going downhill. Not to mention the navy, the army became a miscellaneous brand. Only some aristocratic families can still be considered to have combat effectiveness in the army, and others haha.

Li Zhao continued: "We brothers have a good relationship. Oh, I can't handle my birthday at all."

Zhou Shuren was so happy that he finally stopped hurting.

Li Zhao continued: "In my eyes, you are a person with great ability. Look at what I reminded me just now. You can't pass my birthday, so I don't want expensive gifts. If you know, just say a few more words?"

Zhou Shuren thought to himself, I know a lot, his history is amazing, pirates and colonization, but I can't say it. It was normal to remind me just now. If he really said more, the emperor would have been afraid of him. He didn't want the emperor to die and take him to be a monarch and minister underground. Don't know everything, especially in front of the emperor, "Sir, if you think too much, what can the officials know? The officials understand Haimao and become the prefect of Jinzhou. I was just confused just now, and the officials were just careful by nature."

Li Zhao stared at Zhou Shuren straight, no, this feeling was wrong, the Zhou Shuren he knew was definitely not simple, and Zhou Shuren was right, Zhou Shuren was indeed cautious by nature, and was normal to be confused and confused, and sighed: "Your words reminded me that I originally thought that pirates were nothing, but now I need to be cautious. Once defeated, the coastline will not be calm, and the merchant ships going to sea cannot be guaranteed."

Zhou Shuren thought to himself that it was because he knew that he reminded that his son had not come back yet. If he had been uneasy, it would not only affect the sea trade, but also the people on the coast. The coastline of China is too wide.

There is no war in the inland now, and the two foreign tribes are afraid of being beaten. They will be coastlines for more than ten years. Fortunately, the emperor decided to build ships last year and cultivate navy. Otherwise, haha!

Zhou Shuren touched his beard, and the emperor must have considered it, so he was still prepared for the future. Anyway, he didn't think much about it at that time.

Seeing that Zhou Shuren had nothing to say, Li Zhao let go of his sleeves, "Although I will not be able to handle my birthday, I still have to receive the gift. Lord Zhou, you and I have known each other for more than a year, so you can handle the first birthday gift."

Zhou Shuren, "...I don't know how to tell the adults."

Li Zhao, “Hmm?”

Zhou Shuren smiled, "I'll just stop talking."

Because it's a swear word!

Li Zhao hummed, "You boy has received many rewards. I look very envious of the lonely calligraphy and paintings that the emperor has given."

As he said that, he patted Zhou Shuren on the shoulder. He was really envious. Although he was a general, he was also a well-read poet. He took the opportunity to collect a lot of things in the war back then, but when he went north and was very envious of Jiangnan, he really didn't collect much good things.

Zhou Shuren coughed, Li Zhao was really not polite to him. Bah, who has a good relationship with Li Zhao? It is obvious that Li Zhao is relying on his higher official position and bullying him with his heavy power, waiting for him to upgrade!

As the two of them were about to leave the palace, the young father-in-law chased after him, "Master Li, the emperor summoned him."

Zhou Shuren felt sad, and he knew that a person's mouth must be kept tight, and he would control his mouth in the future.

Zhou Shuren returned to the Ministry of Revenue and met Lord Shangshu, "The emperor issued an order to prepare the silver for the Ministry of War."

Xiao Qing's face was gone, "The emperor wants to use pirates to train the navy!"

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Pirates are not simple, they need to use a lot of money."

Xiao Qing's eyes were a little serious, "Didn't the emperor say the specific number?"

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "No, the amount will be sent after counting the Ministry of War."

This is the benefit of some minor changes, and he won’t just say a few thousand taels!

Xiao Qing sighed, "It's already troublesome, and another thing is added."

In the imperial palace and the government hall, the emperor waited for Li Zhao to leave, and carefully looked at the new map of the Haihan Line, and said quietly: "The map is still incomplete, it would be great if there were maps of all countries."

Even if someone has been sent to follow the sea merchants to draw, the drawing cannot be fully drawn for a while.

The emperor looked at himself in the mirror and touched his face. If he wanted to be younger, he would give the navy a few more years, and the nearby island countries sighed, and now he was powerless.

The emperor handed the map to the prince, "You will need to complete it in the future."

The prince was excited. He took the map and touched it. After being excited, he was calm. It was a dream to dominate the navy that had just been established. It was a big deal to win this time. Thinking of this, Zhou Shuren's heart was really meticulous. If he didn't remind him, it would be easy to underestimate the enemy.

The Zhou family, Zhulan chatted with her eldest daughter and watched her granddaughter carefully wipe the book.

My granddaughter has been in the capital for half a year and has changed a lot. When I first arrived in the capital, even in the Zhou Mansion, I still couldn't let go.

In the past, Jiang Miao had a certain bookish temperament, but now it is more obvious. The girls at home, Yushuang and Yulu prefer calligraphy, painting and musical instruments, etc., are not very enthusiastic about reading. Jiang Miao is not. Jiang Miao really likes reading. When he went to the capital, he taught him, and the little girl even read it.

On the contrary, the musical instruments are not talented, and the music is very messy when playing the piano, but the calligraphy and painting are good, and the handicrafts are also good.

The little girl has been good since she was a child, but she has never grown crooked when she grows up, and she is even more good at dressing up. The little girl is very popular.

However, Jiang Miao is not happy now.

It rained last night, and it stopped at dawn. Water was everywhere on the ground, and Jiang Miao's book fell to the ground and became dirty.

Zhulan looked at her granddaughter's tears rolling in her eyes. She felt really distressed, "Grandma bought you another new one."

Jiang Miao shook his head, "Grandma, I'll rewrite the vague part of this book."

Zhulan was happy, "You haven't read the book you just bought yet, how can you write it?"

In the past, when her grandchildren were in her hometown, she sent her New Year gifts to her children and sent her New Year’s money to her children. The money was collected by her daughter, but her grandchildren could not get it.
