Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

With just one glance, the man from science and engineering saw through the emperor's intentions.

"The cost of the textile workshop run by His Majesty will definitely be lower.

If this is the case, the foundation of the evil gentry in Jiangnan will be destroyed! "

Zhu Youjian laughed.

He originally thought that Wang Zheng was just a man in science and engineering, but he didn't expect that his eyes were equally vicious.

If you think about it carefully, since the Southern Song Dynasty settled in the south of the Yangtze River, the prosperity of the south has surpassed that of the north.

Song Liao, Song Jin, Song Meng...

The centuries-long confrontation has made the north and the south always at odds since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Even when Taizu had just unified the country, the North-South incident broke out.

The southern officials who presided over the imperial examination actually admitted all the scholars to be southerners.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, so the North and South Lists were established.

This is something that many people know. However, what no one knows is that just a few months after the Nanbeibang case, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, directly moved more than 4000 wealthy households from the south of the Yangtze River to Nanjing.

This is a replica of the tomb system of the Han Dynasty!

Records of Ming Dynasty science and technology in ancient books

The purpose is to reduce the influence of Jiangnan wealthy households on the country.

Later, Emperor Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing, which was another major blow to the Jiangnan gentry.

These capitalists don't want to think about it. If they were a little more generous, how could there be no less benefits given the geographical advantage of the Zhu family's origin in the south?

What the emperor needs is stability throughout the country!

This is the highest code of conduct!

How could Wang Zheng, a northerner, fail to see what the foundation of Jiangnan is?

Zhu Youjian looked at Wang Zheng, and saw the light of wisdom flashing in the white-haired old man's turbid eyes.

Regarding Wang Zheng's speculation, Zhu Youjian did not agree or refute, but simply said:

"I have calculated it with Zhang Shutang, and the cost of the cotton cloth produced by the workshop should be one-tenth of that of Songjiang cotton.

The cost of linen produced in the workshop should be two-fifths of that in Jiangnan. "

Wang Zheng's eyes lit up.

wonderful!

He can already think of His Majesty's methods.

This is root cutting!

Zhu Youjian pointed lightly to the north, where there was a smoky land.

"I have set up a sugar workshop there. The cost of producing white sugar is the same as elsewhere, but the advantage is the huge output.

This year's output should be one-third of the entire Ming Dynasty. If it waits until next autumn, it should account for more than half of the output. "

Wang Zheng was shocked and speechless.

His Majesty holds so many wealth-absorbing weapons in his hands, even if he does not collect taxes, he can still feed an army of 20 people!

The influence of the Jiangnan clan on the government will be the lowest since the founding of the People's Republic of China!

Seeing Wang Zheng's shocked look, Zhu Youjian was determined.

If you want people to sincerely serve him, there is nothing better than to let them see how great your potential is and how great the benefits are of following you!

No one is a sage, and who doesn’t have the seven emotions and six desires?

In the early days of starting a business, you had to rely on your mouth to paint a big picture and deceive...

Uh!

Pooh!

Missed out.

In the early days of starting a business, you have to devote yourself to China, contribute to the common ideal, and rely on like-minded ideas to get the capital to start.

However, once you have the territory and capital, if you still do this, it will be over!

You must let the people who follow you get benefits!

As the old saying goes, if you don't leave a name in history, you will leave gold, silver, pearls and jade.

Look at people serving food, and watch the dishes being served with chopsticks!

Fame and fortune are both important, right?

The life philosophy of our ancestors!

Zhu Youjian remembered the news from Fang Zhenghua...

Some people say that they are a scheming dog emperor who can deceive others!

I bother!

Although the court is dissatisfied with the editor - I am giving people the desire to move forward and the motivation to work hard!

Besides, the stone mountain on the right outside the imperial city is full of carvers!

That's the Ming Dynasty Loyalty Station!

There - stone statues of loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty were to be erected!

This is a good thing that will leave a name in history and be remembered forever!

This is the greatest reward for civil servants and generals!

Moreover--

Isn't it just that the court officials are not paid salaries? We provide food and accommodation, and at the end of the year, we will also give rewards for honest government.

Zhu Youjian had already let people spread it out - the silver coins that our Ming Dynasty distributed this year totaled more than 1000 million!

According to the current trend, no one can divide ten thousand to eight thousand silver dollars!

This is worth more than 3 taels of silver!

Anyway - the money for serving as a soldier has long been given...

No matter how hard it is, no matter how tired you are, you can't bear the pain anymore. They are really going to fight hard!

……

(he~tui! Dog Emperor.)

Zhu Youjian reached out and patted Wang Zheng on the shoulder, giving him a big reassurance:

"I'm afraid Wang Qing still doesn't know that I have set up a Royal Manufacturing Bureau in Wangfuzhou.

Although there is insufficient iron ore today, more than [-] flintlock muskets can be manufactured every day, and the production of artillery has been suspended..."

Zhu Youjian's face was full of sorrow:

"The lack of iron ore is really worrying!"

"I only have about two thousand new artillery pieces in my warehouse..."

dog……

Wang Zheng took a deep breath.

On the way to the future, the bad remarks about the emperor that I heard were pressed into the back of my mind.

It’s not easy for His Majesty the Emperor either…

……

Emperor Zhu Youjian of the Ming Dynasty announced to the world:

It is scheduled for August [-]th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, to open the Enke Festival to recruit scholars for the country.

Enke is not a gift from the imperial examination, but a gift to the learned scholars in the world.

At that time, as long as there is a scholar's reputation, no matter what he studied, he can go to the new capital of the Ming Dynasty to take the scientific examination.

……

Following Liu Fangliang and Li Yanjing's victory at Xingguan, Azige, the vanguard of the Qing army's destruction of Shun, fled back to the capital in embarrassment. After this earth-shattering news, Zhu Youjian released Wang Zhao.

For a time, Zhu Youjian's imperial edict spread throughout the world with the spread of Fang Zheng's Hua Jinyiwei spies.

It even blocked the Jiangnan small court's proposal to destroy the Lian bandits.

Countless ignorant princes who had no talent, all packed up their bags and rushed towards the land of Zhongzhou.

……

in Kaifeng.

In a Taoist temple in the mountains, a beautiful woman with tall hair on her temples held a teenage child in her hand, looking to the southwest with a smile on her lips.

"Mom, can father defeat Donglu?"

"My son, you should believe your Majesty!"

This is Queen Zhang.

Jiangnan.

A slightly plump and beautiful female Taoist priest was also holding a child of seven or eight years old, with longing in her eyes.

"Third mother, are we going to Ah Da's place?"

The child's clear eyes looked at the female Taoist priest.

The female Taoist priest shook her head: "My husband is walking hard and has strict orders. If he hadn't summoned you and me, we could only live in seclusion here."

The child nodded in understanding. Although his eyes were full of longing for his relatives, he was sensible and did not ask any more questions.

This is Concubine Yuan.

Zhenjiang.

Zhenhai General Mansion.

Zheng Hongkui bowed and bowed.

Sitting on the main seat opposite was a handsome, petite and exquisite woman.
