    When the army returned in triumph, Emperor Hongzhi was also very generous. With a wave of his hand, he gave several hereditary and irreplaceable iron rice bowls to the state.

    Liu Jin was granted the title of Duke of Liao, and he had been conquering the south and north. Yang Yun, the brave and invincible Marquis of Polu, was also granted the title of Duke of Australia. Well, in Australia, Emperor Hongzhi was very generous and granted him a large territory.  land.

    Wang Shouren has participated in various foreign wars of the Ming Dynasty in recent years, so he also got an iron job and was named Jin Guogong. In the South Golden Continent, Emperor Hongzhi also granted a large piece of land to Wang Shouren.

    In addition, a large number of generals such as Yang Yu, Han Yi, Huo Yun, etc. who performed outstandingly and made military exploits were rewarded by Emperor Hongzhi. They were granted the title of marquis, the earl of the earl, and were promoted to the rank of nobility.

    In addition, real money and silver are also indispensable.

    Emperor Hongzhi, who had a huge pocket, was very generous. Liu Jin was rewarded with one hundred thousand gold, well, it was actually one hundred thousand taels of silver, which was considered very generous.

    You must know that in the past dynasties, the emperor said that the reward was a thousand taels, but in fact it was worth a thousand taels of copper coins, not a thousand taels of gold.

    Although it is not gold now, the change of copper coins into silver can also show how rich Emperor Hongzhi is now.

    Of course, in the past few years, under the auspices of Liu Jin during the southern and northern campaigns, not only the generals and soldiers at all levels in the army could share the dividends of the war, but Emperor Hongzhi received the most, and he ate the lion's share.

    Not to mention other things, last year¡¯s campaign in Nanyang alone forced countries large and small in Nanyang to sign many alliances under the city walls, and one of them was definitely an indemnity.

    Liu Jin even asked the small Malacca dynasty to pay fifteen million taels of silver as compensation, and Siam even forced them to sign a compensation clause of fifty million taels of silver.

    It can be imagined how much money Liu Jin got for Emperor Hongzhi from Nanyang alone last year. Anyway, Emperor Hongzhi is very rich now.

    Not only has the navy begun to expand on a large scale, but the army has also continued to expand. The Ming Dynasty's territory is getting larger and larger, and more and more places need to be garrisoned by the army. Now it seems that the Ming Dynasty needs to maintain at least a million troops to maintain its strength.  Such a huge territory.

    These all require money. In the past, Emperor Hongzhi felt heartbroken and was always reluctant to part with them, but now he is very generous. He recruited qualified young men from all over the Ming Dynasty to train new armies and expand the navy on the vast sea lines of the Ming Dynasty.

    When it came time to reward meritorious soldiers, Emperor Hongzhi was also very generous and spent a huge sum of money to reward meritorious soldiers.

    In addition to money, land rewards are naturally indispensable, but Liu Jin¡¯s suggestion was accepted. Almost all the fiefs, land rewards, etc. of meritorious soldiers were outside the Ming Dynasty.

    Like the soldiers of the Western Expedition, the land they were rewarded was basically in the Western Regions and the Hezhong area. Emperor Hongzhi also took out land in Australia and America this time and rewarded it very generously.

    ¡°Anyway, we don¡¯t know where these places are, nor do we know the conditions in these places, and Ming Dynasty has no ruling power in these places at all.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together.

    After the reward, Emperor Hongzhi also personally received the soldiers who returned from the Western Expedition. Of course, he met some representatives, and at the same time he reviewed the army of five thousand meritorious soldiers.

    Afterwards, Emperor Hongzhi also held a dinner to celebrate the success of the Western Expedition. The dinner was for thousands of people, and the Taihe Square where the dinner was held was filled to the brim.

    After completing the entire process, Liu Jin felt exhausted.

    It was very late when I finally returned to my house.

    "Mr. sir!"

    When Liu Jin came back, the whole Liu family was celebrating. Liu Jin was now the Duke of the country, and the whole Liu family was also celebrating.

    Among them, the happiest people were Xu Waner and Li Zhen. Both of them had tears in their eyes. They were looking forward to the stars and the moon and finally brought Liu Jin back.

    Starting from the beginning of last year, Liu Jin first went to Nanyang to fight for more than half a year. He only took a two-month rest after returning to the capital. He was sent by Emperor Hongzhi to go on a western expedition and has not returned until now.

    The two of them thought about it day and night, hoping that Liu Jin would return safely, hoping that Liu Jin could lead the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, and expand the territory.

    "Come on, give me a kiss, you really miss me."

    Liu Jin hugged him from left to right, and greeted him directly with his mouth.

    "Ms. sir, there is someone else here~"

    &nbspWhat a talented person, he actually knows how to research rice milling machines.

    "Yes, I have carefully researched and investigated. The rice we usually eat is not easy to come by. Not only is it very difficult to grow rice, but after it is grown, it is also extremely difficult to shell the rice to get rice.  The process requires pounding rice, which is very time-consuming and labor-intensive.¡±

    "So I wondered if I could develop a rice mill that could use mechanical power to grind rice and remove the husk. This would benefit the people of Ming Dynasty."

    ¡°Also, I want to develop a steam noodle grinder and use the power of the machine to grind the noodle, which can also save a lot of time and energy.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao nodded solemnly and said all the thoughts in his mind.

    "Your Highness's idea is very good. In fact, the power of machinery is very powerful and can be used in all aspects. However, we have always lacked research in this area."

    "The machine developed by His Highness will definitely benefit our people of the Ming Dynasty, and even benefit the entire human race!"

    Liu Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Zhu Houzhao is really awesome, he has become a hidden person in researching machines, and he wants to develop any kind of machine.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
