In front of Yu Wenhao, he seemed to have no choice. Even though he knew that he had these weapons in the Northern Tang Dynasty, he could not continue to research.

But he did not give up and entered the palace the next day to ask for his father to discuss the matter.

The father and son discussed this matter alone in the imperial study room. Yu Wenhao said: "Father, I know your concerns and are afraid that the public will resent. But someone deliberately made the matter of flying stones outside the sky, and made a big fuss about Rong Yue and Huanggui's mother's pregnancy. Think about it, this matter will not be born sooner or later. I went to the Ministry of War to give birth. Are they just guarding against us to rebuild these weapons?

The people of Beimo have suffered losses, so they are sure to stop them, but we just gave up?

Why should our Northern Tang Dynasty protect the military power from other countries?

If we let go of the battle now, we may not lose. If the father is really worried, the son can ask for an order to go out to fight and fight off the northern desert."

Emperor Mingyuan frowned and said, "You are the crown prince, how could you still say you want to go to the battlefield easily?

Now the Central Committee of China is in a turbulent situation, and the floods are serious. Beijing is in trouble because of your medical system reform. People are holding a sense of resentment. You should calm down the affairs of the capital first."

"To put it bluntly, these things in the capital were caused by Aunt Huiping. They defended their own interests and had a shallow vision and did not think about the overall situation. Why didn't the father talk to his aunt?

If you come forward, my son can save you a lot of trouble."

Yuwen Hao said.

Emperor Mingyuan looked a little unhappy, "How can you say that to your aunt?

I didn't agree to the establishment of a medical office at first, but I saw that you were all focused on this matter and it would not be difficult to dampen your enthusiasm. But in the long run, this is not a good thing that benefits the country and the people."

Yu Wenhao was stunned, “Why isn’t it?

This medical problem has always been a big deal for you. Didn’t you say before that it is difficult for people to seek medical treatment and it is expensive to treat diseases. Do you want to solve this problem?”

Emperor Mingyuan asked him, "Do you know how much money the imperial court costs every year for medical treatment?

Do you know how much money you need for military spending every year?

Do you know how much silver is released every year in natural disasters?

Do you know how much money you pay for a year to support officials and royal marquis?”

Yu Wenhao was stunned, "This...but isn't the treasury more expensive now?"

“Abundant?”

Emperor Mingyuan laughed, and it was extremely difficult to laugh, "What's the abundance?"

If the war begins, the amount of silver will be only half a year old. A large part of the gold in the treasury was donated by your emperor's grandfather. Over the years, there have been floods and taxes, and not only have to be paid, but also have to release food and silver for disaster relief every year. Nowadays, floods and disasters are widespread, the treasury will have to spend at least two to three million taels of disaster relief. If the Medical Department is added at this time, it will not be the money for the construction of the Medical Department, but the low medical expenses are not enough to support the expenses of the Medical Department. The medical expenses are now high, but do you know how high the taxes imposed by the imperial court on these medical clinics and pharmacies?

Only by levied these taxes can it be used for the expenses of the People-friendly Administration across the country. Otherwise, the court would have to allocate additional funds. Lao Wu, you are not in charge of the family and don’t know that rice is expensive. I want to do a lot of things, but it’s hard to cook without rice. In the past two years, I have to enjoy the dividends in the early stage of the exhibition. I don’t think your measures are not feasible. In fact, weapons need to be developed and medical reform are not imminent. When the country is peaceful and the treasury is really abundant, it’s not too late to do it. You are too anxious."

Yu Wenhao was stunned. He really didn't consider the issue of money.

However, the prices of clinics and pharmacies are extremely high, which will cause a cycle of evil deeds. Every family has patients, how can the people become rich?

As for weapons, he actually believed that no matter how poor he was, he could not be poor enough to study weapons. This was the foundation of a stable country and a country. Only by not being cared for by foreign enemies can the Northern Tang Dynasty truly develop.

Emperor Mingyuan continued: "Also, if you want to research weapons, the court still has to allocate funds to you. Can this research be less investment?

And you also said that as soon as you arrived at the Ministry of War, someone made a fuss about flying stones outside the sky, which proves that there have been people watching from the Ministry of War. Although the Beimo Army is gathering outside now, I think that this battle cannot be fought for the time being. If they know about your weapon research, Beimo Ding will let go. The southern border is not decided, so you must not act rashly."

He walked down and came to Yu Wenhao with his hands behind his back, his eyes very solemn, "There is one thing you probably haven't thought about before, that is, if Da Zhou knew that we were developing gunpowder weapons, what would they think?

Will you also send them the weapons manufacturing maps?

If sent over, can you make sure that it will not be leaked?

When they gave me the chariot map to Northern Tang, they almost fell into Hong Lie's hands."

Yu Wenhao felt helpless, but he had to admit that his father's worries were all right.

He was depressed all the way out of the palace. If he didn't know that he had this weapon, he could still convince himself to buy weapons and chariots from Dazhou. But now he knew that there were those in the Northern Tang Dynasty and there were ready-made ones, and then it was not difficult to develop and manufacture them in batches. He thought that he could try it out first.

Someone is watching the Ministry of War. No matter what the Ministry of War does, it will definitely not be concealed. If you want to study it, you still have to study it privately.

After thinking about it, he headed straight to the Leng House.

After hearing his words, the Fourth Master also made the same analysis as Emperor Mingyuan, "My father-in-law is right. He does have these worries now. But you are also right. If you have weapons, you don't have to rely on allies. There are no eternal allies in this world. If we don't study now, there will always be times when we need to study, but at that time, we are afraid we will be beaten."

Yuwenhao's eyes lit up, "Do you agree too?

That would be great.”

The Fourth Master was sitting with a clear and clear look on his face, "Your happy smile is very dangerous."

"Brother-in-law!"

Yuwenhao shouted seriously, "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Are you the royal son-in-law? Are you considering becoming an official?"

"I do a good job in business and don't want to be an official!"

The Fourth Master is as stable as the Taoist Taoist.

Yu Wenhao just thought he was talking nonsense and looked full of appreciation, "Okay, if you have ambition, then you will be the foundry official position, organize a group of people in private to find a secret place, and start research. As for the research money, we will bear it together and do our best for the father."

The Fourth Master raised his phoenix eyes, "Do you have money?"

Yu Wenhao shook his sleeves and said, "No, I'll borrow it from someone."

“Who should I borrow?

What to get?"

The Fourth Master looked at him up and down. It wasn't that he underestimated this brother-in-law, he was really poor.

"Don't care who I'm going to borrow, one million taels per person, is that okay?"

Yuwen Hao said.

The Fourth Master bent his lips and smiled, "Okay, don't say I bully you, I'll get one million. Two million taels, you only need to take out eight hundred thousand taels."

He couldn't take out the 800,000 taels. The little money Yuan Qingling had in his hand had been almost done, and the rest was of great use.

"Sister, sister, Brother Wu tells you something!"

Yu Wenhao turned around and headed towards the backyard.
