Have you ever seen a naughty kid who can handle a flintlock?
Zhu Houzhao, the eldest son of Emperor Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty, was born with the engineering soul of the 21st century.
At the age of three, he stunned his father by playing with geometric cakes. At the age of five, he established the Youlin Battalion to train dead soldiers. At the age of seven, he drew the blueprint of a flintlock gun. At the age of eight, the first gunshot was fired in the cellar - the military industry of the Ming Dynasty took off from the same spot.
On the surface he is a playful and lustful prince, but secretly he is the most terrifying trader in the empire.
Liu Jin is his dog, Zhang Yong is his knife, Jinyi Weidong Factory? Sorry, those are all leftovers from my play.
Others traveled through time and became emperors, but he time-traveled and directly changed the operating system for Ming Dynasty.
The civil servants scolded him for being ridiculous, but he laughed and admired the moon feast; the generals were afraid of his suspicion, so he turned around and handed over his flintlock. Conquering the grasslands, bloodbathing Japan, and colonizing Southeast Asia, everyone was just a pawn in his hands.
