Chapter 133 Worship the Ming Tomb
Premier Huaxia asked Zhu Wei and Huaxia Petroleum Corporation to talk on their own, and Zhu Wei knew that he was already halfway there. In the past two years, China has had a very bad time, because after the financial crisis, the negative effects of the "four trillion yuan plan" have gradually appeared, with a large amount of overcapacity, enterprise closure, a large increase in the non-performing loan ratio of banks, slow economic restructuring, and excess foreign exchange reserves. At the same time, oil and gas resources and mineral resources are highly dependent on foreign countries, and at the same time, relations with East Asian and Southeast Asian countries deteriorate and cannot be repaired in a short period of time. It is precisely for this reason that China is working hard to implement the New Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road.
The Silk Road Economic Belt implemented by China refers to a series of nodes from Xi'an and Urumqi, through Khorgos, Almaty, Bishkek, Samarkand, Tehran, Istanbul, Moscow, Duisburg, Rotterdam, etc., and finally to Venice, where the surplus Chinese energy is continuously exported to Central Asia, Russia, West Asia, Europe and the Mediterranean by means of railway transportation. to solve the problem of insufficient domestic demand and open up new export markets.
The 21st Century Maritime Silk Road runs from Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Guangzhou, and Haikou to Hanoi, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Colombo, Nairobi, and Athens, and finally to Venice. The biggest advantage of the New Silk Road is that it can make the renminbi a regional settlement currency, and China's construction of a new Silk Road across the Eurasian continent is a grand blueprint and the wisest decision for China across the century.
Of course, the United States will not allow China's dream to come true, and Ming Guo does not care about this, and he cannot and does not want to get involved in the matter of the great power game, but he can help Huaxia solve the problem of oil and gas resources and mineral resources.
With the geographical advantage of the Ming Kingdom, Huaxia cares very much about East Asia, the only quasi-friend.
Back to the topic of natural gas, Ming Guo has long guessed that the price offered by Russia will not be less than 350 US dollars, and Russia has been resisting the price to the death, but Huaxia natural gas has never received a preferential price.
Under the framework of the contract signed between Gazprom and PetroChina, the total investment of the Russian side in the implementation of the gas supply contract to China will be 55 billion US dollars, and the Chinese side will be about 22 billion US dollars. But if you cooperate with Mingguo, this money will be paid a lot less. This is beneficial to both Ming and China.
Zhu Wei said: "There is another thing about the free trade agreement, Ming currently exports to China products have high tariffs, you know, our Ming currency is very high, exports are very difficult, we hope to sign an FTA free trade agreement with China." ”
Prime Minister Huaxia was stunned for a moment, before he looked at the foreign trade data of Ming and China, although the currency value of Ming was high, but it did not stop Ming wine, gold and jewelry into the footsteps of China. It shows that Mingguo's products have strong competitiveness, and if the tariff market is liberalized, Mingguo's liquor enters China at a low price, which will inevitably cause great danger to China's liquor producers, which makes the Chinese prime minister hesitate.
"I suppose you've been to our island, right? The production capacity of our small island is not high, there will be no dumping in China, and you have forgotten that we are a duty-free port? If we cooperate, I will also transfer your goods to Northern, Central and South America, Australia, South Pacific countries, and even Alaska without tariffs in our country. ”
What Zhu Wei said is the fact that in East Asia, where there are many enemies, Ming is the only free trade free port. If you really maintain a good relationship with Mingguo, it is very meaningful to rely on Mingguo's natural free port to export products in a steady stream. It shows that it has opened the east gate of the New Silk Road, which is of great significance to China.
The talks with the Chinese premier ended quickly, and Zhu Wei once again got a low-interest loan of 100 billion soft girl coins from Huaxia with a term of 35 years to help Huaxia stimulate domestic demand. Of course, this money was borrowed by the Ming royal consortium.
As a result, the talks officially ended, and the next step was to hold a press conference in the Great Hall of the People, officially announcing that Ming and China had signed a free trade agreement, and all goods imported and exported by the two countries in the future would be duty-free.
In the evening, the No. 1 chief appeared and entertained the visiting Ming Emperor Zhu Wei and the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. Yangyuanzhai has a dedicated chef, the catering is Chinese style, and the banquet hall can accommodate 36 people.
Beginning the next day, the Ming Imperial Consortium, under the leadership of Song Ximo, began to have frequent contact with Huaxia Enterprises, and Huaxia Petroleum Corporation also began to formally negotiate with the Ming Imperial Consortium of the Ming Kingdom.
Zhu Wei began his own private activities, and before that, the Huaxia Tianting Investment Company sent hundreds of people to study the Ming State rituals. Zhu Wei selected the emperors with remarkable merits in Chinese history, such as Fuxi, Shennong, Yellow Emperor, Shaohao, Zhuan, Tang Yao, Yu Shun, Xia Yu, Shang Tang, Zhongzong, Gaozong, King Wen of Zhou, King Wu, King Cheng, King Kang, Gaozu of Han, Emperor Wen, Emperor Jing, Emperor Wu, Emperor Xuan, Emperor Guangwu, Emperor Ming, Emperor Zhang, Emperor Wen of Later Wei, Gaozu of Sui, Gaozu of Tang, Taizong, Xianzong, Xuanzong, Shizong of Zhou, Taizu of Song, Taizong, Zhenzong, Renzong, Xiaozong, and Lizong, a total of 36 mausoleums.
Each of them made a dress and a crown, and used a letter to put incense and colored silk. Xiahouan and others went to hold the sacrifice. The Ministry of Rites will send someone to make a memorial message. Each mausoleum gives 10,000 yuan to the soft sister to prepare sacrificial items. If it is excavated or destroyed, the money will be given to the local government to repair it.
Of course, Zhu Wei was not satisfied, and he also ordered someone to make a tablet of the 36 emperors and invite him back to Yingzhou Island, and sacrifices will be carried out on the first day of February and August every year.
Zhu Wei took a plane to Nanjing first to carry out his second activity in the Ming Kingdom, that is, to pay homage to the Ming Tomb, that is, the mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial tombs, including the Ming Tombs and the Ming Tombs, were properly protected by the Qing government (destroyed in the middle of the war) until the Republic of China.
Nanjing Ming Filial Piety Mausoleum is located at the southern foot of Nanjing Purple Mountain, Dulong Fu Play Everest Peak, east of Zhongshan Mausoleum, south of Meihua Mountain, Ming Filial Piety Mausoleum is the Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and his filial piety high queen Ma Shi burial mausoleum, because of the name of the Empress Xiaoci, so the name of filial piety, is the largest imperial mausoleum in Nanjing. There are many tombs of meritorious heroes such as the tomb of Changyuchun, the tomb of Qiu Cheng, the tomb of Wu Liang, the tomb of Wu Zhen and the tomb of Li Wenzhong
It took more than 30 years for the whole tomb to be built. The scale is large, the building is majestic, and the shape is enhanced with reference to the mausoleums of the Tang and Song dynasties. When it was built, the palace was majestic and magnificent, and half of the seventy temples in the Southern Dynasty were enclosed in the forbidden garden.
The Ming Tomb of Ming Filial Piety has been hit many times in the Qing Dynasty, especially the war during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty almost destroyed the surface building of the Ming Tomb, and the imperial monument of Kangxi's handwriting even fell to the ground and was broken. It was not until September of the third year of Tongzhi (1864) that Zeng Guofan enshrined the edict to worship the mausoleum and began to restore the Ming Tomb. At that time, Zeng Guofan sent personnel to investigate, the Ming filial piety tomb maintenance actually needed 200,000 taels of silver, but the Qing Dynasty was financially constrained, and in the end only 740 taels of silver was used to do some small repairs, the "Zhilong Tang and Song Dynasty" imperial monument was also lifted and glued, and a mended crack can still be seen on the monument. Originally, people could bypass the left and right sides of the stele, but after the 1980s, the entire stele was fixed with cement all the way to the roof. Therefore, you have to come out of the Imperial Monument Hall first to see the back of the turtle.
The Ming Tomb has experienced more than 600 years of vicissitudes, and the wooden structure of many buildings no longer exists, but the pattern of the mausoleum still retains the original magnificent style, and the underground tomb palace is intact. The main buildings and stone carvings in the mausoleum area include Fangcheng, Ming Tower, Baocheng and Baoding, including Xiamafang, Dajinmen, Shengong Shengde Monument, Shinto, Stone Statue Road Stone Carving, etc., all of which are the architectural relics of the Ming Dynasty, maintaining the authenticity of the original building of the mausoleum and the integrity of the spatial layout.
