After Zhu Ci Xin finished planning the money, he brought the Empress to the barracks.
Five hundred musketeers, five hundred three-eyed musketeers, and four hundred flintlock musketeers were all training in the camp.
The Empress looked at the well-equipped soldiers and gasped.
"Your Majesty, where did this army come from? If our capital had such a powerful army, we would have long since killed the intruders and forced them to flee!”
Zhu Ci Nao looked to the north where Slave Jian was attacking and sighed.
"Sigh! Of course, these are soldiers who love the Ming Empire. They must know that I am on Qiongzhou Island, so they came to seek refuge!”
The Empress was very excited.
"Your Majesty, does that mean we have a chance to return to land?”
"Right, not just returning to the mainland, but returning to Great Ming, returning to the capital!”
Zhu Ci Xin was in high spirits. At this speed, he would be able to land next year and launch a counterattack against the Jiannu Tartars.
His current task was to build a large number of warships, Franks, Red Cannons, and a series of siege weapons.
The five teams of Embroidered Uniform Guards sent to the land did not rest either.
The five teams of Embroidered Uniform Guards headed to five different places.
They were going to contact the various princes of the Ming Dynasty, preparing to unite under Zhu Ci Xin's command.
Zhu Ci Xin was in the center of the town, commanding 20 groups of farmers to build a simple palace for himself.
The palace was a courtyard with red tiles and red walls. There were twenty rooms inside.
Zhu Cishi and the Empress lived here, and an office was built next to the palace.
The office was located in the Ming cabinet, which was also a courtyard house with four rooms.
Several conscripted ministers and Zhu Ciyao were working here.
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was June 20th.
A hundred Fu Ships and a hundred Mengchong Warships were all launched into the water.
Warships entered the water one after another.
Suddenly, Zhu Ci Xin realized that there were no marines.
"System, where do we recruit marines?”
The third-grade dock could recruit marines.
Zhu Ci opened the third level dock, the recruitment of marines.
Recruiting a marine required 1000 units of food.
The marines could skillfully operate warships, machine cannons, and red cannons. They could also land on land to fight.
The 25 million units of food stored in these 25 days could recruit 25000 marines.
Zhu Ci Xin didn't feel the slightest bit of heartache as he clicked to recruit 25000 marines.
The sailors piloted the warships to ensure that their island would not be attacked by Zheng Zhilong and Slave Jian's fleet.
Recruiting so many marines to ensure the absolute safety of his Qiongzhou Island made Zhu Ci Xin very excited.
The Fu Ship had a displacement of 250 tons, while the Mengchong Warship had a displacement of 500 tons.
One Fu Ship had 100 soldiers, while the other had 150 soldiers.
25 days later, the siege equipment factory produced 200 Fran cannons every day, and they had used up all of their iron reserves.
There were a total of 5000 Fran cannons, each of which produced 50 shells.
Zhu Ci had the marines deploy 25 Frank Machine Cannons on each ship.
The entire Qiongzhou Island had four docks, each with fifty warships.
According to the directions, they were called the Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Azure Dragon fleets.
After the four fleets were built, Zhu Ci Xin had an idea.
At present, the Spanish Empire, the Portugal Empire, and the fleets of the Netherlands often passed by the waters around Qiongzhou Island.
His Ming Empire's fleet could allow them to collect taxes.
Previously, Zheng Zhilong's fleet had been collecting the fees paid by these countries. Zheng Zhilong would probably surrender soon.
Zhu Ci Xin had to accept this mission and not let the money fall into Zheng Zhilong's hands.
"Minister of Industry, how is the development of the town center industry?”
"According to the collected resources, we have produced a large number of bricks, cement, and steel bars! The cement road was also under construction! The city walls surrounding the town center had also been built. As for the siege weapons, they had temporarily stopped working and were currently mining for iron resources!”
"Minister of Agriculture, how is our agricultural development?”
"The farmlands have been reclaimed one by one. The third-grade farmlands cover an area of 50 mu each, and each team of ten farmers is responsible for one piece of farmland! The farmland was planted with rice, potatoes, and sweet potatoes in a ratio of 2:2:1! The fishermen's output was still maintained!”
Zhu Ciao was very satisfied as he looked at the Minister of Commerce.
"Has the business developed these days?”
"Your Majesty, a bank, a merchant association, and a market have been built in the center of our town! The silver and copper coins were released! 30,000 households are participating in our economic cycle!”
Zhu Ci Xin looked at the endless stream of commoners. They picked wild vegetables, wild fruits, and wood to sell to the town center. The merchants in the town center paid them with silver and copper coins.
These people used the money to buy bricks, cement, and tiles to build their own houses. Some bought farming tools to open up wasteland.
Zhu Ci Xin looked at this scene and felt that the development of Qiongzhou Island was very fast.
At this rate, in a few years, Qiongzhou Island would have millions of farmers and hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
Thinking of this, Zhu Ci Xin laughed out loud.
"It's developing very well! In another month, I will continue to use my troops!”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Stop flattering me! "Now, our Qiongzhou Island still has a lot of resources. We have to let the recruited farmers mine them! In addition, I want to go to the eastern dock personally. You guys continue working!”
Zhu Ci Xin came to the horse farm, a Grade 3 horse farm. He would be able to produce warhorses in two months.
He looked at the horse farm. The Level 3 horse farm produced 5,000 Ferghana Horses in two months.
June 20th. It had been two months since the horse was raised.
The first batch of five thousand Ferghana Horses had been released, and the horses were placed in the field.
The grass produced by the grassland was enough to feed 100,000 horses, and 5,000 horses were enough to feed them well.
Zhu Ci Xin was extremely excited as he looked at the five thousand Ferghana Horses galloping on the grassland.
"Cavalry, it's time for my cavalry to come out!”
