Zhu Gaoye, the main character of this incident, was hiding ten meters underground, fiddling with some bottles and jars.
Ever since he transmigrated to this world and found out that his father was the King of Yan, Zhu Di.
Zhu Gaoye never rested a day.
Zhu Gaoye knew very well that his father would rebel sooner or later.
As Zhu Di's son, although his mother did not have a status until her death, Zhu Di still treated them very well.
He had lived a luxurious life since he was young. Other than not being by his side, he did not owe him anything.
Zhu Gaoye, who was an orphan in his previous life, didn't care about these things. Anyway, he was used to being alone.
The sudden appearance of a father by her side would make her feel uncomfortable.
Therefore, after his mother died and his cheapskate father did not appear, he was forced to leave.
Zhu Gaoye began to lead the servants in the residence to do their own things!
When he was very young, Zhu Gaoye discovered that he had a portable space with him.
There were all kinds of things in this space.
These things could allow him to grow quickly.
Over the years, Zhu Gaoye had been secretly accumulating his strength.
In order to prevent being discovered by Jinling's Jinyiwei.
Zhu Gaoye had already dug out ten meters of the ground beneath his residence!
At a depth of ten meters, even if he detonated the explosives below, the people above would not know what had happened below the courtyard!
Zhu Gaoye had built a huge military base under the mansion!
In this military base, there was a steel mill and a glass mill. The steel produced here was piled up underground.
However, Zhu Gaoye didn't dare to let the steel be circulated in the market.
This was because the refining techniques he had just obtained were all obtained from his Portable Space.
The steel that was refined was also completely not a product of this era.
Once it was circulated on the market, it would quickly attract the attention of people with ulterior motives. At that time, they would follow the clues and touch his head.
With his current ability, he couldn't guarantee his own safety. Zhu Gaoye knew that an innocent man would be punished if he held a treasure.
Therefore, even though he had spent a lot of money, Zhu Gaoye had no intention of exchanging the steel for money.
However, whether it was buying raw materials or anything else, money was indispensable.
At this time, the glass factory came into being. Compared to steel, glass was much more low-key.
In the Song Dynasty, there were already a batch of factories that specialized in making glass.
After the Yuan Dynasty, in this dynasty, the craft of glass had been further developed.
The glass that Zhu Gaoye had made was much better than the glass on the market.
Whether it was in terms of clarity or purity, it was not something that the current glass could compare to.
Therefore, once the glass made by Zhu Gaoye was released, it immediately attracted a wave of enthusiasm.
Today, the high-end glass market in Ming Dynasty had been monopolized by Zhu Gaoye's glass.
Glass wasn't a prohibited item in the imperial court like steel. Although it attracted some attention, Zhu Gaoye dealt with it with various methods.
The clues were often cut off by Zhu Gaoye's men. So far, no one had found out who the real maker behind these high-end glass was.
With the money, everything became better. The idle steel was not of much use for the time being anyway, so there was naturally no need to rush to sell it.
Therefore, Zhu Gaoye used the steel to make a lot of Fran cannons and flintlocks according to the blueprints given by his Dimensional Pocket.
If the firearms masters of the Treasure Source Bureau saw these Francois Cannons and flintlocks, they would definitely curse Zhu Gaoye for wasting such precious materials.
Because no matter which one of these two was taken out, it was enough to set off a monstrous wave!
The Fran Machine Cannon was the so-called " Mother-Son Cannon ", although firearms had already been used on the battlefield during the Song Dynasty.
However, the firearms of that time were far more effective in intimidation than in reality.
When it was developed to the Ming Dynasty, although it had already been put into actual combat, it was not really spread because of the high cost, the limited range and speed of fire, and the fact that it was easy to explode after a long time.
The only time it was recorded was when Chen Youliang used a large number of cannons to attack the city.
At that time, the general guarding Hongdu was none other than Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew, Zhu Di's cousin, Zhu Wenzheng.
Zhu Wenzheng's general talent was unique in the entire Great Ming. He had people move the entire city wall back dozens of meters to resolve Chen Youliang's attack.
At the same time, it also reflected the cumbersome and shortcomings of this type of cannon.
However, these Fraunge Mother-Child Cannons were different. The cannon body was divided into mother cannons and child cannons.
When they were in battle, they only needed to change the subcannons frequently to form a continuous fire suppression. Moreover, because the barrels were made of steel, there was no need to worry about the problem of the barrel exploding.
And these flintlocks were even more powerful. Da Ming's current flintlocks were all muskets, and the medicine pool was exposed.
Not only was it very dangerous to fire, but when it was rainy, these guns would also become fire sticks in the true sense.
The flintlock didn't have this problem at all. The sealed medicine chamber perfectly solved the problem of burning the user and the inability to use gunpowder on rainy days.
In this way, even in the rain, these flintlocks could still be fired without error.
In this era, not to mention firearms, even ordinary bows and arrows needed to be completely protected from moisture during maintenance.
Otherwise, when it was time to use it, it would become a waste.
In addition, Zhu Gaoye also used the remaining money from selling glassware to buy land around Jinling and the entire Jiangnan area. Whether it was fertile or barren land, Zhu Gaoye did not refuse.
The Great Ming Dynasty had just settled the world. After the turmoil of the Yuan Dynasty and many years of war, the people had long been displaced. Some died, and some fled.
Even though Zhu Yuanzhang had actively migrated from all over the country after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the entire Jiangnan region had still been abandoned.
Therefore, Zhu Gaoye did not spend much money to buy a large number of fields.
After buying the land, Zhu Gaoye didn't let the land idle. Instead, he planted the hybrid rice and improved wheat that he had signed.
These seeds all had an extremely high yield, and the amount of grain produced every year was astronomical.
After so many years of accumulation, the grain that Zhu Gaoye had stored in various parts of Ming Dynasty was enough to feed the people of Jiangnan area for ten years.
