The most arrogant in history

Chapter 723 Hanhuang Island.

At this time, low-quality plastic products are really of little use.

It is obviously not as good as animal skin for making raincoats.

A raincoat made of pig skin can be passed down from generation to generation. But this inferior plastic cannot.

Buckets and basins are obviously not as environmentally friendly and safe as wooden barrels and basins.

It is generally not used in the construction industry.

Ye Kun smiled and said, "This is still not good enough. If it is good enough, plastic can be used to make many things. It is cheap and durable. Even plastic can be made into clothes after fine processing."

He Tiantian asked: "So now, in which direction should plastic production be researched, or in other words, what specific quality of products do we need?"

Ye Kun picked up a piece of plastic film and said, "Let the Science and Technology City research and manufacture transparent films. Once successful, it can be used in agricultural greenhouses to increase yields and produce off-season vegetables.

Another thing is to research and produce safe and odorless buckets and basins. Sometimes in logistics and transportation, plastic buckets are more reliable than jars and cans. Because jars and cans will break at the slightest collision, while plastic buckets will not. "

He Tiantian nodded, and suddenly said:

"Your Majesty, I want to personally go to Qiongdao Science and Technology City, as well as Jiaozhi and Tianzhu Science and Technology City, to take a look and learn about the rubber and oil industries."

The oil supply in Zhuo County is pitifully small, only a few thousand kilograms per year;

There is no rubber.

The research centers for oil are in Dunhuang and Tianzhu, because oil is most easily available in these two places.

The rubber research center is located in Qiongdao and Jiaozhi areas.

He Tiantian is in charge of science and technology, so of course he wanted to go and take a look. After all, the rubber industry and the petroleum industry are as important as steam engines and diesel engines.

Ye Kun smiled and said, "I also plan to go to Tianzhu. I'm thinking about discussing it with the Nine Departments. How about this, around October, you and Sun Yi will accompany me to Tianzhu. Zhuo County is very cold in winter. Let's go to Tianzhu and spend a warm winter."

He Tiantian was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

After returning to the palace, Ye Kun and Jiang Yourong discussed a plan to visit Tianzhu, and hoped that Jiang Yourong would accompany them to go out and relax.

Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "I won't go. I'll stay at home and take care of the children. Ayiman is young and must like to play. The emperor can take her to travel overseas."

Ye Kun shrugged: "Then I'll ask."

Whether Ayiman goes or not is a small matter.

Ye Kun’s main task is to persuade the nine ministries to approve his actions.

Sure enough, Sang Buyi and others refused to agree.

Ma Zhao said, "Your Majesty, last year we made a big move, the Huaxia Empire, set up 42 provinces, the personnel and regional changes were too great, and it is still unstable. At this time, Your Majesty must stay in Zhuo County to prevent the officials from having wild thoughts."

Ye Kun argued: "After the division of provinces, it is actually more stable. No one can secede, and no one dares to rebel. The state affairs should be managed by you nine ministries, not the emperor. As long as the nine ministries operate normally, the emperor is basically dispensable.

I went to Tianzhu to speed up the immigration process and create overseas business for China..."

Wu Qiong smiled and said, "I don't have any money anyway. This year's expenses have exceeded my expenses. I haven't had a good year yet."

Sang Buyi also raised a question and sighed, "Your Majesty, I haven't been feeling well lately."

Ye Kun had no choice but to use his trump card:

"Then I will abdicate and let the crown prince Ye Feng take the throne. At that time, I will be free and unrestrained, and you won't have any control over me, right? I won't use the court's money, I will use my own private money."

After much negotiation, the Ninth Ministry finally approved Ye Kun's tour plan.

However, only four months of vacation were given.

Ye Kun was required to set out on October 20th and return to Zhuo County on February 20th of the following year.

Ye Kun clasped his fists and expressed his gratitude.

Once you go out, when you come back is not up to Jiubu.

Even if he came back two months late, the nine ministries could not fire the emperor.

There are still two months before the tour.

Ye Kun was very diligent and actively handled government affairs. He also found time to arrange the weddings of several princes and princesses.

The eldest prince born to Miss Yuejuan is called Ye Chan. He is seventeen years old this year and is engaged to be married to Sang Buyi's youngest daughter. The wedding date is set for November.

Sang Buyi was very unhappy about this.

Because Ye Kun ran away in October, he could not preside over the wedding for Ye Chan and the daughter of the Sang family.

Ye Kun specially held a banquet and invited Sang Buyi to drink, saying:

"Among the princes, Ye Chan has a kind and honest character and doesn't like to talk much, just like his mother. If this child stays in China's Nine Provinces, he will probably get along well with the crown prince and won't encounter any unexpected disasters. But in the next generation, the fate of his descendants is hard to say.

So I came to discuss with you, do you want to find a fiefdom overseas for Ye Chan and your daughter, so that they can be kings overseas like Ye Shusheng in the future?"

Sang Buyi clasped his fists and said, "This is the emperor's family affair. I dare not say more."

"Don't say that. The overseas territory is huge. Don't waste it. If the princes don't want the overseas fiefdoms, then other ministers and meritorious generals will ask me for them."

"Where does the emperor intend to send Prince Ye Chan?"

"Aren't I just asking you?" Ye Kun rolled his eyes.

"Then I'll be frank." Sang Buyi gritted his teeth and pointed to Izu Island on the map:

"In my opinion, this is the best place. Xiao Dequan has been there for three years and has been enjoying it so much that he doesn't want to return. When he came back this time, he even lobbied the ministers, hoping that they would persuade the emperor to grant Izu Island to his prince and nephew, so that they can be kings for generations to come."

Ye Kun smiled: "Xiao Dequan did ask me, but I refused. I said that Yizhou Island will not be divided into fiefdoms, but will be managed by the county system."

Sang Buyi sighed: "So, Prince Ye Chan can't get Yizhou Island?"

"Yes, you can choose a place outside of Izu Island for Ye Chan and your daughter."

"Okay." Sang Buyi looked at the big island below the Tianzhu Continent:

"The island of Ceylon is larger than Izu Island, but it is hot and full of epidemics. If the emperor is not worried about the child getting into an accident, then give this island to the child."

The large island of Ceylon is close to the equator, so it goes without saying that it is extremely hot.

Sang Buyi has also studied astronomy and geography for many years and has a general idea of ​​the climate and environment there.

If you really go to that place, it’s hard to say how many years you can live.

Ye Kun thought about it and nodded, "Okay, I promise you, I will give the island of Ceylon to Prince Ye Chan and your daughter. However, I will wait until they get married and have a few children before sending them there.

By then, they will be in their twenties, and we as parents won’t have to worry too much.”

Sang Buyi clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The next day, Ye Kun went to the palace and after asking for opinions, he officially announced: "From now on, the prince Ye Chan is the crown prince of the West Palace, and his wife is the crown princess of the West Palace, and their fiefdom is on the island of Ceylon.

The island of Ceylon was officially renamed Hanhuang Island. The prince Ye Chan has been stationed on Hanhuang Island for generations, inheriting the throne from generation to generation, spreading the Chinese bloodline and culture.

Wu Qiong frowned and said, "Your Majesty, there is still a Tamil dynasty on the island of Ceylon! A few days ago, they protested to us, saying that our civilian sailing team harassed them too much..."

Ye Kun looked at Wu Qiong and smiled faintly:

"When I make this southern tour, the Tamil Dynasty will no longer exist. From now on, there will only be Hanhuang Island and only us Chinese people."
