I am the king of the dead

Luo Bingzhong held back a smile and said, "It's too noisy."

The headlines of the Daming Mansion newspaper have become a heartache for Zhu Zhanqian. Why can't they get it after repeated attempts?

Zhu Zhanqian's expression changed, and he said mysteriously: "I have an idea, if it is done, I think it should be able to get a headline, it's not a problem!"

"Oh? What kind of thought?" Luo Bingzhong asked curiously.

Zhu Zhanfeng frowned and said: "Do you still remember that after His Majesty issued an edict, the common people complained that they hated the art of carpentry, the art of nightmare suppression by alchemists, and the art of five supernatural powers, witchcraft, but they didn't like it. way."

"Remember." Luo Bingzhong nodded, this is the way of thinking under the people-oriented principle.

The people of Ming Dynasty were deeply harmed by witchcraft.

This thing is cheating and abducting, hiding filth and evil, and even got the name of His Majesty Zhenwu Great Emperor. In the five prefectures of Jining, Wuyuan, Shuofang, Jing'an, and Shengzhou, it has set up a sin-forgiving talisman.

Yu Qian made a nest in the Hetao area and severely punished him.

"There are quite a few voodoo techniques in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou, but there are many legends about voodoo techniques in Miaojiang." Zhu Zhanqian sat down on his seat and said thoughtfully.

Luo Bingzhong said in a low voice: "Oh? Your Highness means that the temple of Zhenwu Emperor will not be built?"

Zhu Zhan looked at Luo Bingzhong sideways, and said with distaste: "Isn't there a little obedience in your heart?"

Luo Bingzhong hurriedly shook his head and said, "That's not the case."

Zhu Zhanqian rubbed his chin, raised his head halfway and said, "Who in Daming doesn't know that His Majesty is the reincarnation of Emperor Zhenwu? Do you feel that your lonely death is not fast enough?"

"That's true, I just don't know what His Highness's thoughts are." Luo Bingzhong thought for a while, and this was the reason, and then he became confused.

He thought that King Xiang would use the theory of ghosts and gods to deal with witchcraft, but obviously King Xiang didn't intend to do so.

Zhu Zhanqian said word by word: "The Hall of Martyrs."

Luo Bingzhong's complexion changed drastically, he took a step back, and said in horror: "Your Highness, it is more reliable to build the Zhenwu Great Emperor Temple and use the idea of ​​​​moving the Heroes' Hall. Isn't that a toad jumping into the boiling water pot, looking for death without looking at the place?"

His Majesty has spared no effort in maintaining the Hall of Martyrs. Two brothers, Su Ping and Su Zheng from the Changzhou Poetry Society, got Yebushou's head, and finally found out the identity of the spies, but they entered the Liberation Court!

It's not as reliable as the reincarnation of Emperor Zhenwu who is playing ghosts and gods!At least he can be charged with beheading instead of being sent to the court.

"In your eyes, is he just a fool?" Zhu Zhanqian knocked on the table very dissatisfied and said loudly.

Chapter 499 The One-Eyed Man of Mo Dao Stone

Of course Zhu Zhanqian is not an idiot, at least Luo Bingzhong knows this clearly.

They have worked together for so long. Luo Bingzhong has seen Zhu Zhanqian's keen sense of wind direction. This ability can be summed up in one sentence, which is never to stand on the wrong team.

But this time Zhu Zhanqian actually set his mind on the Hall of Martyrs, Luo Bingzhong had to remind Zhu Zhanqian.

This is a real head-scratcher.

The corner of Zhu Zhan's mouth twitched a few times and said: "Gu means that the use of the Hall of Martyrs can effectively alleviate the harm to the common people caused by the techniques of Weary Victory, Nightmare Suppression, and Witchcraft."

"For example, setting up a regular sacrifice, setting a time point every year, and offering sacrifices to these heroes who died for the Ming Dynasty, isn't that what it should be?"

"For example, the management of the Hall of Martyrs regularly repairs and cleans the Hall of Martyrs, and is responsible for explaining the past to people? Forgetting the history is like forgetting the ancestors!"

"These are the protection of the Hall of Martyrs, how could they be beheaded by His Majesty?"

When Luo Bingzhong heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he was not going to buy and sell amulets of forgiveness of sins, which shocked him a lot.

But he asked suspiciously: "But the sacrifice and management of the Hall of Martyrs, what is the connection between these things and the reduction of the persecution of the common people by the techniques of disgusting victories, nightmare towns, and witchcraft?"

Zhu Zhanqian said dejectedly: "You are so stupid!"

"Worthy victory, Nightmare Town, Witch Gu, in the final analysis, whether they are theories of gods, gods and ghosts, they are all illusory legends and stories, but these heroic spirits who defend the Great Ming's Hall of Martyrs are all real."

"Isn't this more real than the ones about Victory, Nightmare Town, and Witch Gu? More convincing?"

This land in the Central Plains has a very strong culture of revering sages and ancestors. Using this culture to defeat such dross as Yansheng, Nightmare Town, and Witch Gu is the idea that Zhu Zhanqian came up with.

Since you have to believe in something, why can't you believe in something that actually exists?

Luo Bingzhong suddenly realized that this is not using the theory of ghosts and gods to deal with witchcraft, but using culture to deal with witchcraft.

Zhu Zhanqian said hesitantly: "The worship of the heroes is from top to bottom."

"The reason why this Nightmare Suppressing Witch Gu technique is so rampant is that in the final analysis, the fundamental reason is that people are not polite to ordinary people."

"The common people in Guizhou don't read much, know little about the truth, and are easily bewitched. If you want to completely eradicate the witchcraft of Nightmare Suppressing and causing harm to the village, the first thing is to promote the farm law and teach people to read and understand."

"If the common people in the world know the books and rituals, they will naturally respect ghosts and gods at a distance. The theory of ghosts and gods will have no soil, and witchcraft will naturally only become ghost stories."

Zhu Zhanqian found out what he thought was the problem with regard to the current situation of Daming's witchcraft, and analyzed the root cause.

On how to alleviate the persecution of witchcraft, I talked about my own point of view, using the heroic deeds of the Hall of Martyrs, using the ancestor culture to defeat the witchcraft.

He also has his own solution to how to completely eliminate the harm caused by witchcraft to the people, that is, to educate people widely.

Zhu Zhanqian and Luo Bingzhong began to discuss the current situation of the Hall of Martyrs in Guizhou, and finally came up with a plan for sacrifice.

If a cultural atmosphere similar to that of the Dragon Boat Festival commemorating Qu Yuan can be formed, it will have a decisive impact on the work of changing customs in Yunnan and Guizhou.

Zhu Zhanqian believes that in order to change the customs of Yunnan, Guizhou, or Ming Dynasty, the imperial court should actively participate in and guide the formation of folk wind power, instead of standing on the sidelines and aloof.

Reforming the land and returning it to the people, changing customs and customs are the main tasks of Zhu Zhanqian in Yunnan and Guizhou.

After Zhu Zhanqian finished writing a draft, he shook his neck and said, "I plan to recruit 20 to 30 civilians to use three years to clear the roads in the Yunnan-Guizhou area."

Luo Bingzhong asked tremblingly, "Many... many... many... few?"

Zhu Zhanqian said calmly: "20 to 30, the ambassador of the Ministry of Industry and the Department of Cleaning Officials of the Ministry of Households sorted out the ground in Yunnan and Guizhou, and the figure we got was that we will have to build nearly ten thousand miles of roads. Harden the ground."

"Your Highness, aren't we really rebelling?" Luo Bingzhong's brows were frowned.

So far, the imperial court has not formed a consensus on the hardened road surface. It has only carried out two small roads of an experimental nature. Yunnan-Guizhou is actually faster than the imperial court.

The most important thing is to level the road surface. The official road post road will be blocked for a short time, which is really taboo!

If the post road is impassable, someone will ask, what exactly does this emperor's uncle want to do?Could it be that he has supervised the country for several months and already has a desire for power?

On His Majesty's side, how does Zhu Zhanqian explain it?

"Rebellion will not end well, and you have to pay taxes three times. There is no such condition for thinking about rebellion." Zhu Zhanqi said indifferently.

In the current age, the most stupid thing is to rebel.

Wrestling with the emperor, don't you first see how strong you are?

Yang Hong finally added Ying Guogong, the commander of the Daming Siyong Regiment Battalion is Yang Jun, who is currently in Yungui.

Zhu Zhanqian rebelled because of his mental illness, and was captured by Yang Jun before he went out to the capital to change his brand.

Zhu Zhanqian continued: "Even if the road is not hardened, we have to level the road surface and recruit people. Even if the road is not repaired, we have to transplant tung trees to build a tung garden, build a Yunnan copper factory, and repair six branches. Coal and Iron Works."

"Because Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou are fundamentally different from the mainland."

"Shang said: The financial and economic affairs of the world are based on the way of keeping offerings, the way of fixing, and the way of flow. Just like the changes of the four seasons, the movement of heaven and earth is also the same. The cycle repeats and starts again and again. The three talents of heaven, earth and man are kept in a fixed flow. These three treasures."

"Yungui has too few fixed assets, too little current assets that can be produced, and even fewer assets to supply and retain."

"So we need to move Yunnan and Guizhou. Labor is the foundation of wealth creation. Recruiting civilians to build official factories, official roads, post roads, bridges and other places is the only way to increase fixed assets."

"Similarly, it's not that the folks we recruited don't give money. Only when the people have money in their hands can they buy and reserve funds, thereby stimulating the flow of liquid capital."

If Zhu Zhanqian lived another few hundred years, he would definitely have a lot to say when he met Roosevelt.

让美利坚焕发新生的罗斯福新政，在1935年到1942年之间，大约花费了130多亿美元，雇用了约850万工人，修建了12.2万幢公共建筑、66.4万英里新道路、7.7万座新桥梁、285个新机场和2.4万英里地下水道。

Such a large investment has greatly stimulated market demand, stimulated and driven economic recovery.

Luo Bingzhong wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a frown: "How much does it cost? How much manpower and material resources do we need to mobilize? Do we have so many managers? One eye, Your Highness."

Zhu Zhanqian said as a matter of course: "We have commanders and generals. These are disciples of the Son of Heaven, and they are in charge of scheduling and management."

"How did it get to the point where Mo Daoshi has one eye?"

"After calculating it alone, about [-]% of our investment in these official roads, post roads and other public properties will be converted into demand for reserved funds. This is also of great benefit to the dredging of the [-]-mile waterway."

"What we have to do is to increase the disposable income of the people. Only in this way will the demand for retained funds and liquid assets be greatly increased, and finally the investment in fixed assets will be increased."

"This is the long-term strategy."

Zhu Zhanyi also mentioned a figure, [-]%, after the investment, about [-]% of the investment will be converted into demand for reserved funds.

There is another key word, called the disposable income of the people.

Zhu Zhanqian is gradually perfecting his theory of sharp handle through practice.

His main direction of attack is the supply-side reform of the surplus warehouse. He hopes that the people's warehouse will be full of food. This is his expectation for taking this name, and His Majesty Zhu approved his name.

The concept of getting [-]% and disposable income is not achieved overnight.

At the very beginning, Zhu Zhanqian also went astray.

He believes that supply determines demand, and what is supplied in the interior makes life better for the people of Yunnan and Guizhou.

There are three fulcrums that support his idea.

The first fulcrum is that the price of commodities can bring goods into a certain balance; labor compensation can measure the value of labor, can spontaneously adjust labor-capital relations, and can adjust labor balance.

For example, the salt used by the imperial court, the price of grain in the north and south, the price of cotton cloth, etc., can promote the flow of grain, salt and cloth in the north and south.

For example, His Majesty’s Farm Law and the catfish effect of government factories to regulate the increasingly unbalanced labor relations in Nanya all prove this point.

The second fulcrum is that currency is just a simple flow of capital, an equivalent, and a medium. The exchange of commodities is completed in an instant, and the transaction is completed in an instant, so the consumption of the people is unlimited.

The third fulcrum is the interest that His Majesty has discussed. Interest can adjust the relationship between fixed, liquid, and reserved assets. That is to say, the amount of interest can determine the flow of assets.

Based on these three fulcrums, we can get a point of view, that is, the production of any commodity, in addition to meeting its own needs, will be used for exchange, forming a strong demand for the exchange of other commodities, so supply determines demand.

This theory is so perfect, even to the point of perfection.

So much so that when Zhu Zhanqian wrote the sentence that supply determines demand, he was so excited that he even thought that he could get the headlines he wanted directly by relying on this theory.

But he soon discovered that reforms on the supply side alone are not complete.

In Yunnan and Guizhou, the price of commodities in the mainland is indeed extremely high, but after these goods are transported to Yunnan and Guizhou, they cannot be sold at all.

Is it because Yungui doesn't need these things?Zhu Zhanqian saw the desire in the eyes of the people more than once, but they couldn't afford it.

So Zhu Zhanqian soon discovered the fatal flaw of his theory.

That nearly perfect theory is fundamentally wrong.

Because labor can create value, and there is no labor surplus in Yunnan-Guizhou for exchange.

No matter how good things are, not being able to afford them is the biggest difficulty.

So Zhu Zhanqian got the concept of people's disposable income. With too little money in his hand, he didn't want to sell any extravagant things from the mainland.

Zhu Zhanqian and Luo Bingzhong discussed the difference between demand and effective demand for a long time, but Zhu Zhanqian's concept of effective demand at this time is still vague.

But he knows a truth, that is, the people in Yunnan-Guizhou have no money, and the goods produced by government factories cannot be sold, and there are no merchants in the mainland who are willing to come to Yunnan-Guizhou.

Zhu Zhanqian said conclusively: "The purpose of recruiting these peasants alone is to make them earn something from their work. When we go to Yunnan and Guizhou, we not only need to solve the problem of no income from work, but also the problem of no place to work."

Luo Bingzhong was persuaded by Zhu Zhanqian, although it was very dangerous to do so.

Zhu Zhanqian changed into his normal clothes, got on his horse, and headed towards Guiyang Mansion.

Xu Youzhen has arrived at Zhentiandong Rapids, and Yang Jun and others have arrived.

The Zhentiandong rapids are an important break-off point for water transportation on the Wujiang River. This place is only about two miles long, but both sides are cliffs, and there are rockslides blocking the river channel in Hanoi.

The short distance of two miles has become the key to the impassability of tank ships.

Yang Jun didn't look like a general at all, he was wearing a bamboo hat and met Xu Youzhen.

Yang Jun and Xu Youzhen had worked together in the Hetao area for a while, so they naturally knew each other and did not have too many pleasantries, so Yang Jun chatted about the plight of this dangerous shoal.

Yang Jun pointed to the position upstream and said: "On the right bank of the upper mouth of Zhentian Cave, there is a big hidden reef that seriously obstructs the water flow. The water is rough and the waves are high. I plan to send someone to blow it up, but it is very difficult."

"The submerged reefs in the water are one of the main difficulties in cutting off navigation. Only in the high water season in summer and autumn, the water surface will submerge the rock in the river. But the problem is that during the high water season, the current is so fast that it is impossible to swim upstream."

Xu Youzhen followed Yang Jun to the upper reaches of Zhentian Cave. After looking at it for a long time, she sighed and said, "This big hidden reef is not easy to blow up. Now that summer is here, the current is fast, and the big hidden reef is already submerged under the water."

Yang Jun nodded and said, "I plan to blow up a large amount of rocks from the bank and push them into the river to fill in the road, then walk over and blow up this big hidden reef."

Yang Jun's method is a bit rough, the current is rising rapidly, and the hidden reef is faintly visible in the water, and the ship can't stop, so pave a way to blow it up.

Vigorously miracle.

Xu Youzhen's eyelids twitched, this is indeed a way to reduce ten meetings with one effort.

Xu Youzhen thought for a long time and said: "Actually, I have a better idea. It is inevitable to clear the large reefs, but can we artificially create the effect of the wet season?"
