Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

Zhu Gaochi had made it so clear, so Li Jinglong did not act pretentiously. He put aside his desire to meet Xu and made his request directly.

"I'll take 20% of the 10% I invest! I'll be the deputy on the ship and the master off the ship. I'll lead 2,000 men."

"One and a half percent. Two thousand people must work and obey Captain Zhang's orders on the ship."

Zhu Gaochi bargained.

His and Zhang Xin's reserve price was actually 25%.

It is impossible for the two of them to go out to sea, so some of the money will still be earned by others.

"Be stingy, 15% is 15%. Just do what you can."

Li Jinglong actually didn't have much idea about money, and half of it was a considerable sum.

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Zhang Xin and when he was sure it was possible, he shook hands with Li Jinglong to form an alliance.

"make a deal!"

No one is a pushover. Since we have decided to cooperate, we must pay attention to the details of the cooperation.

The early stages of the project will definitely be arranged by Zhang Xin. Li Jinglong doesn't understand business matters, so he just needs to get the people together and then set off with Zhang Chang.

As for what to do when he gets there, that is Li Jinglong’s personal battlefield.

At present, everyone is just talking about how to find mineral veins.

Zhang Xin did not make any demands that had to be met.

They were a fleet that went out under private names, their trade with Japan was private, and their activities in Japan were private.

If necessary, you can also reveal your identity.

One is the brother of the eldest prince’s wife of the Ming Dynasty.

One is the cousin of the eldest prince of the Ming Dynasty.

The buying and selling connections are made by the shopkeepers who have worked overseas with Zhang Xin.

As for social gatherings and drinking, it was up to Zhang Chang and Li Jinglong to decide whether it was necessary.

A heavyweight figure must have a royal background to deserve their fate.

As for finding silver mines, Li Jinglong would act according to circumstances, while Zhang Chang would provide full support and cooperation.

After it was roughly finalized, Zhu Gaochi stepped forward and put his arm around Li Jinglong's shoulder, looking very proud:

"After you leave, I will take care of your family affairs and money!"

"Is this true? What if you spend a lot of money every day?"

Li Jinglong glanced at Zhu Gaochi.

"Then I will default on my debt."

"puff--"

As soon as the five words "Zhu Gaochi" came out, Li Jinglong spectacularly sprayed out the water that he had drunk into his mouth before he could swallow it, like a scattering of flowers.

"It's so dirty, wife, let's go!"

Zhu Gaochi helped Zhang Xin block most of the spray, but Zhang Xin's half-pulled sleeve was still sprayed.

Zhu Gaochi was so angry that he pulled Zhang Xin up and left without even looking back.

Li Jinglong was left cursing behind:

"Your grandma————Ah, what the hell, where's the bill? If you don't pay it, run away!!!"

~~~~~

Ming Dynasty, the first year of Yongle, July.

[The imperial edict established the Beijing Garrison Commandery, the Beijing Executive Office, and the Beijing Imperial Academy.]

【The Beiping Prefecture was renamed Shuntian Prefecture, and the Beiping Xingtaipu Temple was renamed Beijing Xingtaipu Temple.】

[The Beijing garrison rear military governor's office has left and right governors, and there is no fixed number of governors and assistant governors. The Beijing executive department has two ministers, four assistant ministers, and one Langzhong, Yuanwailang, and Zhushi in each of the six departments of Lihu, Libing, Bing, Xinggong.]

【The Minister of Revenue Guo Zi and the Minister of Punishment Luo Qian were appointed as the Executive Ministers of Beijing.】

"These old guys don't dare to say anything about moving the capital, and setting up an imperial college has become their obsession."

After Zhu Di issued the edict, he returned to the back hall and began to complain to Xu.

"Classics, history, and miscellaneous works can educate the people and enlighten their minds, but some people can also use specious statements to confuse right and wrong."

Xu understood very well.

"Then what should I do? Let them act arrogantly? Let them stick together?"

Zhu Di just didn't want to follow the wishes of these people.

The imperial capital was moved to the capital, so it was common sense to set up the Imperial College in the capital.

When the memorial was handed to him along with the others, he accepted it with a pinch of his nose.

But I just feel uncomfortable.

The northerners were just beginning to return home, and he felt that once the Imperial College was established, he would lose control of where their hearts would go.

“When people who study literature gather together to form a literary group, the biggest and most important bond between them is interest.”

Zhu Gaochi stood for several hours throughout the day, going to and from court. He was even called by Zhu Di to give advice. He half-leaned on the chair, looking listless.

"Don't be so vague, just tell me what good solution you have!"

Zhu Di frowned.

"Some students from the Imperial College in the capital will be transferred to the Imperial College in the capital. It's a voluntary principle, and those who support the royal family will place their bets in advance. It wouldn't be a problem to give them some minor official positions when the time comes."

Zhu Gaochi came up with an idea.

"What do you think?"

Zhu Di asked Zhang Xin again.

"Dad, since ancient times, military commanders have been both civil and military. Can we let the people in the Imperial College in the capital practice martial arts? The martial arts examination in the capital is not in good shape now."

Zhang Xin had come here to chat with Xu, so he wasn't afraid of being drafted.

Even if Zhu Di didn't ask her, she would have wanted to tell him about this.

"When my father was alive, the martial arts exam was not very popular!"

Zhu Di knew it very well.

As for the military examination, when his father established the imperial examination, he had both the civil and military examinations.

But at that time there were already many military officers and no shortage of them, so they were not taken seriously.

The title of military honor was hereditary, and no one from a family with real military honors took the exam. Instead, some street urchins took the exam.

Picking the tallest one from among the short ones will make the test completely useless.

There is also serious fraud.

Later on, I paid less and less attention to it.

"Not only that, I heard Zhiming and Anle tell me that people in the capital are ashamed to be military households."

Zhang Xin didn’t go out before, and in fact, after being away from the lower class for so long, she had no idea about them.

As for the corruption of the military household system, she always felt that it started in the late Xuande Dynasty.

Before this, military households and military status were still quite popular. For example, in the capital, people would be proud of military households and military status.

Unexpectedly, the capital city is so hostile to people with military status.

The people in the women's workshop told Zhu Zhiming that their brothers and sisters at home did not have any proper jobs and there was no land for them to farm.

Zhu Zhiming asked why he didn't join the army, as military households were allowed to cultivate land.

His expression was full of contempt.

It is said that everyone feels that soldiers are vulgar and vulgar, and that many convicts who were sent to the army have joined the army, making the army a place where filth and corruption are bred.

"!!! What nonsense! How many exiled prisoners can there be? If a war breaks out, these exiled prisoners will be at the forefront. How many will be left after the war?"

Zhu Di was furious.

He really didn't know that this was how the people in the capital viewed soldiers.

[Small science: Famous people who passed the military examination in the Ming Dynasty - Yu Daqian, Qi Jiguang, Xiong Tingbi, Wu Sangui. The first two had hereditary military positions. Yu was the fifth place in the military examination. Qi Jiguang passed the military examination, but his results were poor. Because of the invasion of Anda Khan, he was given a Tong Jinshi. Xiong Tingbi was the first in the Huguang military examination at first, and he passed the civil examination at the age of 29. Wu Sangui was born into a family of generals and a wealthy family. He passed the military examination at the age of 20.]
