Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

Upon hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's question, Zhu Ying's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

then.

Zhu Ying smiled and patiently explained, "Old man, this matter is not as simple as you think."

"When the Ming Dynasty appears in the interstellar universe, it also means that other higher-level universe civilizations will discover the existence of the Ming Dynasty."

"In other words, the civilization of the Ming Dynasty will also encounter attacks from other powerful civilizations."

"And this is the bad news I wanted to tell you."

After Zhu Ying explained to Zhu Yuanzhang, a hint of tension flashed across Zhu Yuanzhang's face. He stammered, "So... the Ming civilization will also face attacks from a stronger opponent?"

“Yes,” Zhu Ying continued to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang, “Among these many interstellar civilizations, there must be some civilizations that are more powerful than the civilization of the Ming Dynasty.”

"There may even be quite a few powerful civilizations."

"This also means that the Ming Dynasty civilization will encounter both crises and opportunities at the same time."

Upon hearing Zhu Ying's words, Crown Prince Zhu Biao's expression immediately turned serious. He quickly said to Zhu Ying, "Xiong Ying, what if a powerful civilization attacks our Ming civilization? Will our Ming civilization be completely annihilated?"

Faced with Zhu Biao's question, Zhu Ying did not exaggerate the situation, but responded very objectively: "Father, actually I don't know the specifics of what happened either."

"It is possible that the Ming civilization will win, but it is also possible that it will be destroyed by other civilizations. It depends on the strength of the opponent."

After Zhu Ying finished speaking, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao fell silent.

Obviously.

They could all sense that the Ming Empire was about to face a major test.

Zhu Ying also noticed the change in Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's mentality, and he explained calmly, "Of course, old man, father, you two don't need to be so nervous."

"I have something else to announce."

"Xiongying, speak quickly," Zhu Yuanzhang said hastily.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard about this interstellar civilization, he panicked, fearing that a powerful interstellar civilization might suddenly attack the Ming Empire.

To know.

The Ming Empire has only just unified the world. If a more powerful interstellar civilization were to attack the Ming Empire at this time, all the efforts of the Ming Dynasty over the past two years would be reduced to ashes in an instant.

"Old man, don't be in such a hurry."

"In fact, the Ming Dynasty civilization still has a fifty-year protection period among the star-level civilizations in this universe."

"What?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened immediately after hearing what Zhu Ying said. Clearly, Zhu Yuanzhang did not understand the meaning of this fifty-year protection period.

"Xiongying, what does this fifty-year protection period mean?" Zhu Biao asked Zhu Ying, who was standing to the side.

Zhu Ying continued patiently explaining to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, "Old man, father, this so-called fifty-year protection period means that within these fifty years, the Ming civilization will not be discovered by other interstellar civilizations."

"In other words, the Ming Dynasty civilization will remain invisible among these interstellar civilizations over the next fifty years."

"As long as the Ming civilization can develop rapidly within these fifty years, then after the fifty-year protection period ends, the Ming Empire, also known as the Ming civilization, will become a top-level existence among the star-level civilizations in the universe."

"Therefore, the next fifty years will be crucial."

When Zhu Ying announced the fifty-year protection period, Zhu Yuanzhang's previously anxious heart was finally at ease.

"Great!"

"This is indeed good news for our Great Ming Empire!"

"But... how should our Great Ming Empire develop in the next fifty years? Do you have any ideas, Grandson?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously.

In fact, Zhu Ying had already made plans for the development of the Ming Empire.

Zhu Ying calmly said, "Old man, you can rest assured. Now that we have this [Supreme Spiritual Vein], the Ming Empire can make full use of it to cultivate ministers who can practice martial arts!"

"I believe that within the next fifty years, many people will be able to significantly improve their martial arts strength with the help of this [Supreme Spiritual Vein]."

To be fair, Zhu Ying was quite confident about the future of the Ming Empire.

After all, the Ming Dynasty possessed not just one world, but several.

This time, opening the treasure chest also yielded three random worlds, which are all resources for the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Ying firmly believes this.

Fifty years from now, the civilization of the Great Ming Empire will surely become the most dazzling civilization in the universe and interstellar civilizations. The future is promising!

"Old man, father, I have decided to convene another court assembly tomorrow, with all the military generals and officials from across the land participating. In addition, important officials from the [Late Jin Dynasty World] and [Late Ming Dynasty World] should also be present."

"At that time, I will announce the development goals for the Ming Dynasty over the next fifty years."

When Zhu Ying expressed his thoughts, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao naturally gave their full support!
"it is good!"

"We agree!"

"Such an important matter naturally needs to be planned carefully."

"I will issue an order immediately that all officials attend tomorrow's court assembly!"

Zhu Ying nodded to Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Yes, from now on, the Ming Empire can no longer limit itself to this world, but must look further ahead."

"The Ming Empire will use these fifty years to rapidly improve itself, and then after fifty years, it will directly embark on the path of conquering interstellar civilizations in the universe!"

To be honest, after the Civilization Decree bound the Ming Empire to it and then brought out interstellar civilizations, Zhu Ying's ambitions naturally rose to a higher level.

Zhu Ying is now beginning to think about things fifty years from now, especially how to deal with other interstellar civilizations.

……

soon.

the next day.

Inside the Fengtian Hall, all the officials of the Ming Dynasty gathered.

Whether civil or military officials, all those who held positions in the imperial court had arrived, including some officials and generals from the late Jin Dynasty and the late Ming Dynasty.

Also.

Emperor Chongzhen (Zhu Youjian) from the "Late Ming Dynasty World" also arrives.

This was the first time Emperor Chongzhen had come to this main realm.

to be frank.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw the development of the Ming Dynasty, he felt extremely ashamed.

This was the first time he had ever experienced such a powerful empire.

Although both are Ming Dynasty, the Ming Empire in the main world and the Ming Dynasty in the [Late Ming World] are two completely opposite countries!
Also.

Inside the Fengtian Hall, renowned generals such as Lan Yu, Feng Sheng, and Mu Ying also arrived.

"What a lively day! Military officers and officials, whom we rarely see before, have all come!"

"Yes, even Guo Zhen, the commander of the Imperial Guards, is here. He's a very busy man!"

"Could it be that something important is about to be announced today?"

"That must be it, otherwise, so many officials wouldn't have come!"

"I'm so excited! I have a feeling there's bound to be good news to be announced!"

"And several vassal kings have also come! This is quite a commotion today!"

"Wow, so many members of the royal family have come! This is quite a grand affair!" Inside the Fengtian Hall, even some officials of relatively lower rank couldn't help but exclaim.

Not long after.

Suddenly, a guard outside the hall shouted, "Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness the Imperial Grandson have arrived!"

Instantly.

The previously noisy Fengtian Hall immediately fell silent.

Looking around, all the officials immediately knelt on the ground to welcome the arrival of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Ying!

soon.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the throne, while Zhu Biao and Zhu Ying sat on either side of him.

at the same time.

All the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall bowed in greeting.

"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty! Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Imperial Grandson!"

"Long live Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, and Your Highness the Imperial Grandson!"

On the throne of honor.

Zhu Yuanzhang addressed the crowd in a loud voice: "Rise, all of you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall also quickly stood up and took their places.

At this time.

Zhu Ying, who was sitting next to Zhu Yuanzhang, was the first to speak.

"I have summoned you all to the Fengtian Hall today because I have something important to announce."

"Now, the Ming Empire has unified the world. As far as the eye can see, all the lands illuminated by the sun belong to the Ming Empire. The Ming Dynasty has become the first country to unify the world."

"But what I want to say is that there are always people better than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding."

To be honest, many officials immediately tensed up after Zhu Ying said those words.

seem.

Some astute officials had already guessed what Zhu Ying wanted to say.

"Although the Ming Empire has unified the world, this does not mean that everything is fine."

Zhu Ying's tone suddenly became serious.

next second.

Zhu Ying addressed the crowd, saying, "As the saying goes, the world, after a long period of division, tends to unite; after a long period of unity, tends to divide."

"Now that the Great Ming Empire has finally unified the world, it will naturally not allow the world to be divided again. Therefore, the main reason for summoning you here is to discuss the development of the Great Ming."

"Only with the continued development of the Ming Empire can the people benefit. Similarly, only when the people in this Ming world can live and work in peace and contentment can the Ming Empire achieve long-term stability and security."

As soon as Zhu Ying finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang chimed in, "Xiong Ying is right. Therefore, in the next ten years, our Great Ming will focus primarily on development."

"Moreover, development is not limited to the Central Plains region, but the whole world needs to develop."

"From this moment on, all the people under heaven are our people, and we will ensure that all of them live a good life!"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall immediately shouted, "Long live the Emperor!"

then.

Zhu Ying then addressed the crowd, saying, "In order to better govern the Ming Dynasty, from now on, I will divide this world into five continents."

"Northern Continent, Southern Continent, Eastern Continent, Western Continent, and also the Central Plains."

next second.

Liu Lei then took out a huge map and presented it to the civil and military officials.

Zhu Ying slowly walked to the front of the huge map and patiently explained to everyone: "The original territory of the Ming Empire was the Central Plains, while the Western countries, such as France, England, and Portugal, were the Western Continent, and the regions of the Golden Horde and the Timurid Empire were the Central Continent."

"In addition, the Kingdom of Moscow and the Viking Kingdom are called the North Continent, while the East Continent includes Japan, the Southeast Asian countries, and some uncivilized lands."

"As for the Southern Continent, it naturally refers to the Antarctic region and the continent south of Egypt."

Zhu Ying divided the world into five continents primarily for the purpose of governance.
after that.

Zhu Ying then addressed the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall: "Previously, each vassal state had already dispatched a governor-general, but now, I will select governors-general for the five continents."

"This matter should be left to the Ministry of Revenue."

"Yu Xin, immediately draw up a list for me!"

As the Minister of Revenue, Yu Xin naturally dared not hesitate and quickly said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will certainly expedite the compilation of the list!"

Zhu Ying continued to remind them, "Remember, these candidates must be capable!"

"Moreover, one must be proficient in both literary and military arts, and of course, most importantly, one must be loyal to the Ming Empire!"

"Your humble servant obeys!" Yu Xin immediately replied.

Zhu Ying then addressed the crowd, saying, "In this world today, development is extremely uneven across different regions, especially in areas far from the Central Plains, where many people still cannot afford to eat."

"This is absolutely unacceptable in the Ming Empire!"

"Therefore, I have decided to introduce the agricultural technology of the Ming Dynasty to other regions. At the same time, we must adapt to local conditions and develop crops suitable for the local areas."

Zhu Ying knew very well that food was the most important thing for the people. If he wanted to keep the people of the country stable and prevent rebellions, the first thing he needed to do was to make sure that the people had enough to eat.

Only in this way could the rule of the Ming Empire be stable.

"This matter should be handled by the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of Works should also provide assistance!"

"We should compile a list of crops suitable for different regions, and then cultivate them to increase crop yields! In addition, when necessary, grain can be transferred from other grain-producing areas to regions experiencing food shortages!"

"From now on, the whole world is one family, and we should help each other."

After the court session began, Zhu Ying's first priority was to address the issues of administration and food supplies.

then.

Zhu Ying then began discussing development strategies.

Currently.

The development of the Ming Empire was quite uneven across different regions.

In the Central Plains region of the Ming Dynasty, which was the main base of the Ming Empire, development was undoubtedly the best, with workshops almost everywhere, and most of them had steam engines.

In addition, there are crisscrossing railways in the Central Plains region!
To be rich, build roads first!
After the railway opened, the economy of the Central Plains region was greatly boosted. Now that the Ming Empire has unified the world, it is natural to build railways all over the world.

then.

Zhu Ying then said to Qin Da, who was the Minister of Works, "Qin Da, the task of building railways around the world should be entrusted to your Ministry of Works."

"Prioritize the construction of areas surrounding the Central Plains, with the Central Plains as the core, and expand outwards in all directions."
