Zhu Youzhang continued, "You are willing to give up. I will not lose my way to the ministers."

The hall fell into silence again, and Li Guang, who was serving the side, said, "Your Majesty, the adults are all here."

Zhu Youzhang nodded, and as Li Guang's announcement made the ministers walk into the hall, a dozen ministers stood in the Wenhua Hall. The originally not very spacious hall immediately became crowded. Tang Bohu, the unknown man, was squeezed to the corner, looking at his steady faces. This was the first time Tang Bohu saw the political core of the Ming Dynasty with his own eyes! These people are the confidants of Emperor Hongzhi and the humerus of the empire.

Li Dongyang continued: "Everyone, today Your Majesty hurriedly summons you, only the matter of the coal mine!"

“Coal mine?”

The ministers below, look at me, I see you! What is there to discuss in the coal mine?

Li Dongyang pointed to the coal stove and said, "This thing is a coal stove. Although the cost is not high, it is ingeniously designed. If it is widely sold to various parts of the Ming Dynasty, the price of coal mines is likely to be impacted."

The ministers looked at the coal stove, some nodded and some were still confused! But since Emperor Hongzhi wanted to formulate a system for the coal mine, then make it clear and complete the tasks assigned by the emperor first.

After all, this matter is not Tang Bohu's fault, it is just a business opportunity brought by a coal stove. Everyone's vision is long-term, and Emperor Hongzhi also needs to seize this opportunity that can bring fiscal revenue to the empire. Coal is rarely used in the homes of the people because the combustion of coal is not as convenient as firewood, but with this coal stove, the location of coal and firewood will undergo earth-shaking changes.

With this small coal stove, the use of coal mines is immediately reflected. It is resistant to burning and does not need to constantly add wood to maintain combustion. The heat can be controlled. From this aspect, it can be seen that coal mines are likely to replace most people's cooking tools today.

If Emperor Hongzhi intends to lift the coal mine, the benefits brought by the coal stove will be considerable.

Now we need to formulate a policy to control coal prices, which cannot be monopolized by one family, and ensure that the people can afford it, and that the empire's tax revenue can reach the maximum profit. This is the current problem.

Zhu Houzhao also walked into Wenhua Hall. Zhu Youzhang glanced at his prince without saying anything and then started discussing with the ministers.

"I know you haven't had time to eat." Zhu Houzhao took out a handful of jerky and handed it to Tang Bohu's hand and said, "Eat it quietly, don't let my father see it."

Tang Bohu nodded. It seemed that the prince still valued friendship! In fact, after Zhu Houzhao became emperor, he had a lot of controversy over the emperor's history. He said that he was not a good emperor and could not be considered a foolish monarch. Until now, Tang Bohu has seen it clearly. The prince's nature is just a child who yearns for freedom.

A child who lived in the deep palace for a long time naturally yearned for the outside world. After that, the eunuchs and palace maids followed Zhu Houzhao's advice and actions, which led to Zhu Houzhao's development of willfulness when he became an adult.

The two teenagers smiled at each other, and Zhu Houzhao also listened quietly to the discussion between the court officials and his father.

The meeting was from noon to late at night. Tang Bohu stood numbly, leaning against the wall from time to time to relax his legs, Zhu Houzhao was already asleep on the chair, and his crystal saliva hung on the corner of his mouth. The meeting was approaching the end. Tang Bohu stretched his waist, and the bones all over his body were stiff and the bones rubbed and made a giggle. Emperor Hongzhi stood up and said, "Thank you all for your hard work."

"It is our blessing to be able to work hard to govern!" The ministers bowed, and Tang Bohu also bowed.

Zhu Houzhao also woke up sleepily on the chair and saw the already dark sky, and wiped the saliva from her mouth.

The ministers sued Tang Bohu and mixed in the crowd and wanted to evacuate the scene, but things went against their wishes.

"Tang Bohu!"

Just as one foot stepped out of the hall gate, Emperor Hongzhi's voice stopped Tang Bohu.

"Your Majesty, I am here!" Tang Bohu accepted his fate and walked back to Wenhua Palace.

"What are you going to deal with your factory?" Emperor Hongzhi said after taking a sip of tea.

Tang Bohu made the record and said, "I'm going to close the factory now."

Zhu Youzhang said: "I don't want to cut off your financial path, but from the price of the coal stove to a few taels of silver, you can see that you are not a person who seeks personal gain for yourself. I can let you continue to make coal stoves and I wrote an inscription for your factory!"

When Tang Bohu heard that the current emperor wanted to write an inscription for his factory, he was very happy but worried. He thought for a long time and said, "I am willing to hand over 30% of the profits of the coal furnace factory to the national treasury every year!"

"So generous?" Zhu Youzhang observed Tang Bohu, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. With my members in your coal stove factory, you will have the greatest backer of the Ming Dynasty. Tang Bohu, Tang Bohu, you have a good plan."

"I don't dare!" Tang Bohu said carefully.

"Haha..." Zhu Youzhang sneered and said, "I promise you that you are the only one in the coal stove factory in Beijing! You are only allowed to produce one in one, but the price must be the original price!"

"Thank you!" Tang Bohu continued: "Then people from other places want to open a coal stove factory..."

"If others could build coal stoves, I wouldn't stop them!" Zhu Youzhang said, "This capital business is enough for your Tang family to eat."

"I! Thank you for your kindness!" Tang Bohu knelt on one knee.

In fact, the concept of factory in the Ming Dynasty was not yet there, and the most common one was workshop! Emperor Hongzhi didn’t know how much Tang Bohu would expand the factory, but in a few years the factory would become a giant, with thousands of people working in the factory. This giant made Emperor Hongzhi not dare to shake it easily. This was Tang Bohu’s original intention of establishing a factory, increasing employment rate, increasing productivity, promoting economic circulation, and then starting shipping with the trend!

A rich country, a strong country! That is Tang Bohu’s real purpose.

Zhu Houzhao was served by Liu Jin and returned to the East Palace. Tang Bohu and Zhu Youzang and the ministers stood in the quiet Wenhua Hall. After a long time, Zhu Youzang spoke and said, "You haven't been home all night, and your family is very anxious! I'll send you a visit."

"I dare not!"

Tang Bohu is used to saying this.

Zhu Youzhang shook his head and walked out of Wenhua Palace side by side with Tang Bohu. Zhu Youzhang said as he walked, "My prince is used to being naughty. Can you actually listen to my discussion today?"

"Actually, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not bad in nature." Tang Bohu said.

Zhu Youting nodded and said, "Tang Bohu, what is your ambition!"

"Rich country! Strong country!" said Tang Bohu.

Looking at the sunrise, Zhu Youzhe stood in the wide palace: "Isn't Daming strong now?"

"Do your Majesty think it's strong?" Tang Bohu asked back.
