    Zhu Houzhao was so happy that he took Fang Jifan into the palace!

    Unexpectedly, as soon as we arrived at the Meridian Gate, a eunuch came out in a hurry and said, "It turns out Uncle Xin Xin is here. Come on, come on. His Majesty is in Nuan Pavilion and is about to summon him."

    Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao looked at each other, and Zhu Houzhao exclaimed: "You go to see your father. I have gone to see my sister. Let's see you next time."

    After saying that, he ran away quickly.

    Fang Jifan shook his head and had to rush to Nuange obediently, only to see Liu Jian, Minister of War Ma Wensheng and others here.

    Ma Wensheng seemed to be in a good mood. The voyage to the West was going very smoothly. He met Xu Jing and had a long chat with him. He actually felt that Xu Jing was much more reliable than Fang Jifan!

    At this moment, I finally felt confident that Xu Jing was the envoy and would lead his fleet to the sea for envoys. It was a certainty that the Ministry of War had to help.

    the most important is.

    The map of the world left by the old man Sanbao Eunuch.

    This map has been printed by the inner court and distributed everywhere under the instruction of Emperor Hongzhi.

    ¡°At least everyone has a head start and knows where the legendary golden seed country is.

    At present, the Ming Dynasty¡¯s fleet has reached Mugudusu, which is the east coast of Kunlun Continent. The next step is to bypass the entire Kunlun Continent and reach the west of Kunlun Continent.

    Based on the information gathered by the Human Scumbag King Bushi, the map of the world is extremely accurate, and it is almost the same as the countries explored by the Human Scumbag Wangbushi.

    Once you reach the west coast, you have to cross a vast ocean to reach the huge island.

    Everything on the voyage to the West is preparing for landing on that island.

    Of course, there are difficulties.

    In Kunlun Continent, there are more ships from the Franji and the Great Cannibal. Many ships are on the route in that area. Without their help, it would be impossible to get supplies!

    The plan formulated by the Ministry of War is that there are only two ways to solve the supply problem. One is to reduce the fleet to the smallest size. However this is a bit difficult, because once encountering the Franji or the giant cannibal in Kunlun Continent,  The consequences of the attack would be disastrous. To be on the safe side, a large enough fleet is needed to go out with a full load and try to be fully supplied. With this huge fleet, after arriving at some Franconian settlements,  In fact, there is no need to worry about the other party's refusal to provide supplies, because according to Xu Jing's plan, the Franconian settlements and ports in Kunlun Continent are not strongly armed, with no more than a hundred people at most, which is enough for them in Kunlun Continent.

    Their firearms are relatively sophisticated and their combat effectiveness is also very strong.

    "Howeverif a group of 1,500 elite soldiers equipped with muskets accompanied them, I think the Francois would not choose to take any drastic measures.

    This is not a big problem for the Ministry of War. You must know that when the Sanbao eunuchs went to the West, they maintained a fleet of twenty to thirty thousand people. Next, the Ministry of War will try its best to build a fleet that can supply thousands of people.  .

    Regarding this, Ma Wensheng is very troubled now.

    To be more precise, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are actually very troubled.

    Seeing Fang Jifan coming, and waiting for Fang Jifan to salute the emperor, Ma Wensheng took the lead and said: "Uncle Xinjian, how much food does it cost to make the flying ball?"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Well, it¡¯s money again!

    Sure enough, in this world, money and food are the core of everything.

    Fang Jifan said: "Whale skin is more expensive. Ahem, this flying ball, skinned, probably costs hundreds of taels of silver. Plus other things, probably 300 taels of silver for a boat is enough."

    Your Majesty hopes to make a batch of flying balls for use in various border towns.

    ? One ship is three hundred taels. Aren¡¯t these one hundred ships equal to thirty thousand?

    This number is actually acceptable.

    But Li Dongyang felt very sad, because he knew that there must be more than a hundred ships. He said with a cautious expression: "What is the usual maintenance? In addition, I am afraid that only one flying ball needs at least three or five people. This way  After all, it¡¯s a lot of expense.¡±

    Fang Jifan thought for a while, he was an upright person and was unwilling to deceive Li Dongyang, so he said: "Not only that, but the biggest cost is fuel. The fuel now is refined whale oil. For an hour in the sky, at least  It requires two kilograms of refined whale oil. If it is to be maintained for ten hours or even twenty hours, then the amount of whale oil required will be even more. However, in the future, we may find ways to replace whale oil with other oils."

    Fang JifanBut it still cannot eliminate the hidden dangers in the border town. Isn't this a huge waste?  The amount of money and food allocated to border towns every year is astronomical.  "

    Ma Wensheng¡¯s old face twitched involuntarily.

    The worst result came out.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT!  Fang Jifan also addressed Ma Zheng's problem and pointed out that it would be a huge waste to just use the old method to distribute money and food.

    ¡°Anyway, in the eyes of both parties, it¡¯s all the Ministry of War¡¯s fault.

    This is tantamount to Li Dongyang and Wang Ao scolding the Ministry of War for being a prodigal, and trying to use balloons to cheat money.

    And Fang Jifan gave Ma Wensheng another slap in the face with his backhand, refuting Li Dongyang and Wang Ao, these scumbags, even if they don't use balloons, they are still cheating losers.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
