The Japanese are very shrewd, the Tokugawa family may have seen the importance of coinage, so they took the treasury into their own hands at any cost, but their inferior coinage technology made this real profit by China, all they could get was some scraps, of course, even if they used silver mines as a bargaining chip, the Chinese people's silver deposits were enough to impact the Japanese economy, as long as the new silver coins began to circulate in a large area, this financial erosion could no longer be stopped, The Chinese royal family, as the real mastermind behind the scenes, can gradually reduce the silver content of silver coins to overturn to credit currency, and Jiang Tian is confident that he will be able to see this scene in his lifetime.

Now the only thing that can cause trouble to the new financial system is those who make and sell ** illegal elements, Jiang Tian also knows that his stamping technology is very simple in principle, and sooner or later it will be cracked by those folk masters, fortunately, it cannot compete with the national mint in terms of manufacturing costs, so there is no need to counterfeit copper coins below one yuan, but more than one yuan is even used for large payments or treasury turnover of 100 yuan is the focus of prevention. Fortunately, the Academy of Sciences is trial-producing silver-tin-nickel alloy in the real sense, and as long as the formula is kept secret, it can be completely anti-counterfeiting. The thing that makes Jiang Tian laugh the most now is actually the copper-zinc alloy used in copper coins, because it is brass, so it has been exchanged by many large households and minted copper......

When Jiang Tian retracted his thoughts and refocused on the main hall, he saw Zheng Jing running up with his head down and trembling steps, and glanced up when he passed in front of the group of unqualified old ministers, but quickly lowered his head and ran over, what he saw was no one else, it was his grandfather Zheng Zhilong, who had been under house arrest in the mainland. Then he knelt down in front of His Majesty Dan with a thud: "Long live the criminal minister Zheng Jing to see my emperor......"

This is the climax of the whole pilgrimage ceremony, the surrender of Zheng Jing symbolizes that the country's main civil strife has ended, and the rest is either a shearer or some stragglers, who will be strangled sooner or later. So the ministers and generals in the hall all focused on Zhang Tao, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to reprimand, and then regardless of whether it was extrajudicial mercy or generous compensation, and finally sang the praises of virtue and virtue to go down in history. But at this time, everyone found that the wise and martial founder of the country slowly walked off the throne with a serious expression, and stood straight in front of Zheng Jing who was prostrate on the ground.

The heroic pirate leader of the past is now dying, or the change in the political situation has made him age very quickly, and now he is really full of mixed feelings when he looks at his grandson kneeling on the ground. Who would have thought that the two ends of the first rat back then thought it was a wise way to protect themselves, but they completely offended the real overlord, if they hadn't kept a mind and acquiesced to Zheng Chenggong abducting their own fleet to help the Northern Expedition, I'm afraid that now their Zheng family has become dry bones.

Zhang Tao saw the old man standing next to him, so he walked over to take over the little eunuch to support Zheng Zhilong, this move made the officials in the hall turn their heads and ears, but only to see Zhang Tao leaning sideways to Zheng Jing who was still kneeling on the ground and said: "It is not me who you should kneel down today, but the grandfather who created this family business for your Zheng family, what a hero your father and my virtuous brother are, it can be said that he has done his best for the country and the nation, how can you confront the court when his bones are not cold, Even if I can take advantage of it for a while, what face will I have to meet my virtuous brother's spirit in heaven! ”

No matter how these questions sounded, it looked like the elders were teaching the younger ones, and no matter how confused Zheng Jing was, he could hear the sound outside the strings, and the corners of Zheng Zhilong's mouth, who was originally a little flattered, began to curl slightly, and it seemed that he still made the right move. But the play that should be played still had to be played, so the old man stretched out a foot and kicked his grandson's buttocks, kicking back and shouting angrily: "Rebel! My Zheng family has always been the final court, how can you be deceived by those villains, see that I don't enforce the family law today......"

Fortunately, Zheng Zhilong's Hokkien dialect, that is, officials from Fujian and Guangdong, can understand it, otherwise I don't know what expressions everyone will show after hearing his statement. If you want to say that Zheng Chenggong has always been loyal to the Ming Dynasty, it's almost the same, but if you Zheng Zhilong want to say that there are any loyal thoughts, I'm afraid no one will believe it, and if you are really loyal to the monarch and patriotic, wouldn't you be more likely to confront the Chinese Dynasty, because you are an official of the Ming Dynasty!

The smart ones have already guessed the next script, which is also a good way to take over Taiwan Island peacefully without bloodshed. Zheng Jing naturally wanted to get this meaning, so he pouted his ass higher and made a painful and repentant look. Zhang Tao naturally wanted to comfort Zheng Zhilong, but the other party naturally got off the donkey down the slope and pretended to be angry and stood aside, now it is up to Zhang Tao to say what punishment method he says.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Tao asked in a deep voice, "Are you guilty?" ”

"Weichen deserves death for his crimes......"

Zhang Tao nodded and then raised his head to look at the door of the main hall, his eyes seemed to be looking at a distant place, or recalling Zheng Chenggong's voice and smile, and then said slowly: "Your father and I had a heated debate on how to govern the country, and then there will be a hundred-year covenant, I will change the law to strengthen to revitalize China, and your father will follow the ancient system of Taiwan, a hundred years later, under the Jiuquan, our brothers will discuss their own shortcomings and lengths, but I didn't expect him to go first, if you still have loyalty and filial piety in your heart, you will achieve his wish for him......"

What's going on? The buzzing discussion in the hall was endless, and even Zheng Zhilong didn't understand what Zhang Tao meant. The only person who was not affected was probably Jiang Tian, because this was the result of his discussion with Zhang Tao. Under the premise that there was no structural collapse of civilization at the end of the Qing Dynasty, even if the two of them knew that society would inevitably transform towards capitalism, it would not be possible to suddenly reverse the inertia of history, and besides, neither of them was sure that the wheel of history would move forward according to their own expectations, then the foreshadowing that had been laid in the past would continue to play its due role, and Taiwan, as a reserved place of the feudal system, would be legally protected, and at the same time, it would also be a pawn and shield for foreign expansion.

"Since the Ming court named your father as the king of Yanping County, you will continue to inherit this throne, and the whole Zheng family will stay for yourself, and from now on, the blockade of Taiwan will be lifted, and trade will return to normal, as long as you no longer harass the past merchant ships and do not confront the imperial court, then on this island of Taiwan or in the overseas enclave that your family has beaten down, what kind of etiquette will be used to rule the country, and the imperial court will not interfere, and whether your Zheng family will return to the great unification or cede land and autonomy after a hundred years, it will be left to future generations to determine themselves!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the court almost exploded, isn't this tantamount to a disguised recognition of the small imperial court built by Taiwan itself? Legally, Zheng Jing is the real vassal king, and it is also the king of the fief in the name of the right, China has rarely appeared since the Qin and Han dynasties, and the sons of Zhu Yuanzhang in the early Ming Dynasty have had this treatment, but after Zhu Di, the princes have no military power, and now they are the only princes, and they only have a nominal title, but there is no real fief, I really can't figure out why an emperor with the slogan of changing the law and trying to be strong will restore the feudal system.

Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Jing were also stunned, one old and one young, standing and kneeling, all looked at Zhang Tao speechless. However, Zheng Zhilong is used to seeing strong winds and waves after all, so he reacted immediately and knelt next to his grandson with agility that was not commensurate with his appearance, and kept chanting words like the Holy Monarch and Lord in his mouth, Zheng Jing even kowtowed like pounding garlic, and vowed with tears in his eyes that he would never betray China, in Jiang Tian's opinion, the acting skills of this grandfather and grandson are more professional than those actors under him.

So in a cheer of praise and praise, China at least nominally ushered in the great unification, the country's internal and foreign affairs will also be transformed accordingly, at least the resumption of production and external expansion will become the mainstream, so these courtiers think that the enlightened and prosperous era that will inevitably appear in the great unification dynasty is at least hopeful, especially Taiwan will continue to follow the Ming Dynasty system, then those who are dissatisfied with the imperial court will have a place to live, and the internal confrontation pressure will become smaller, no matter how you look at it, it can be said that the world is peaceful, But only among these happy people, only Jiang Tian was the only one with a normal complexion, not only did he not have any happy expression, but there was a faint worry between his eyebrows, Zhang Tao, who was at the peak of his life, naturally did not see it, but King Ji, who was very close to Jiang Tian, saw it.

Next is the big row of banquets, the schedule has entered the real birthday stage, Fengtian Hall (Taihe Palace) naturally has palace people began to set up tables and chairs in accordance with the regulations of the last queen's birthday banquet, but this time there are more people invited to the banquet, so there are also some lower-level officials outside the hall to sit, according to the rules of respecting the left hand, the emperor's left hand is the official's seat, and the right hand to set up a gauze curtain screen is the place for the queen to communicate with the female dependents, taking advantage of this time Jiang Tian also found his place, that is, the queue of veterans in the back row of officials, Because his father is here, he should serve according to the principle of filial piety, so in a green military uniform, there is this first-class member wearing a red bullfighting suit.

Zhang Tao also saw this scene, and then pretended to be displeased and reprimanded the eunuch beside him: "If there are no soldiers who use their lives to recover Shenzhou, how can these meritorious ministers be allowed to gather in the last seat!" Come on, let these old lads all sit closest to me. ”

In this way, Jiang Tian had to sit back in the front position with his father, these old guys saw that they were in the same column as King Ji, and they were naturally grateful, and King Ji, as a veteran in the army, greeted them, and only Jiang Tian looked at all this indifferently, just mechanically following behind his father. Jiang Hu saw that something seemed to be wrong with his son, but he couldn't think of anything wrong, and he couldn't ask out loud when this person was talking, so he had to stare at his son silently.

What was Jiang Tian thinking? I'm afraid no one can guess this, even Zhang Tao, who should know him best, can't guess it, because Jiang Tian is really worried at this time, and the reform has now departed from his original expectations, and after various compromises with Zhang Tao, China's reform has become more and more like a revolution of the dictatorship of the proletariat, no matter how hard Jiang Tian's persuasion has no effect. Zhang Tao has recognized the experience of success in another time and space, and at some times the introduction of certain systems is a little impatient. However, Jiang Tian knew that the turbulent times at the end of the Ming Dynasty were not the same as the overall collapse at the end of the Qing Dynasty, at least after Yongzheng continued Zhang Juzheng's reforms, the centralized system still had room for survival, and the reason was that the productive forces did not burst out enough to promote the revolution. However, he couldn't move Zhang Tao, just because there was an unavoidable knot in Zhang Tao's heart, that is, he was afraid that the existing revolutionary achievements would fall short after his death, so he hurriedly introduced one advanced decree after another, and now he is ready to prepare the royal family only as a national mascot in the future.

Jiang Tian, who has been exposed to the great debate on the Internet in the original time and space, has already seen the result of such a development, which is nothing more than the failure of the reform due to the government decree being too advanced, or the disconnection between the productive forces and the social system, and finally having to compromise with reality. Countless people who have lamented the emergence of capitalism in the late Ming Dynasty on the Internet have actually ignored a social formula that is so simple that it could not be simpler in middle school politics classes, that is, the productive forces determine the economic base, and the economic base determines the superstructure! Any industrial revolution is based on the premise that the supply of productivity exceeds demand, the fierce competition of low-end products forces industrial upgrading, or the increase in employment costs leads to deep exploration of technological potential and cost reduction. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was indeed a superficial germ of capitalism, but the huge land and large population, as well as the merchant fleet of the Age of Discovery, digested the world's unique productive forces, and the production capacity of the Ming Dynasty has always been in short supply. The Southern Song Dynasty, which many people boast of commercial prosperity, was able to achieve unprecedented development of the urban handicraft and service industries because of the improvement of agricultural technology that led to the 20% of the population out of production! In the late Ming Dynasty, when the land was seriously annexed during the Xiaoice River period, and commerce was monopolized and controlled by the clans and various guilds, it would be a hell of a thing if a capitalist revolution broke out. Unless low-priced grain from Southeast Asia is dumped in the Ming Dynasty, the large-scale cultivation of high-yield crops in the Americas will make it possible for unemployed rural surplus labor to turn to cities and towns and enter handicrafts and service industries, just like sheep eating people before the British Industrial Revolution. But in the face of this community of political, agricultural, industrial and commercial interests, will the landlords allow such self-digging decrees to be carried out? In other words, the reason why overseas trade can prosper rapidly after the opening of Longqing is not only the fundamental reason why merchants pursue profits, but also because of the tight transportation capacity, Western merchant ships will inevitably start with higher value-added commodities, whether it is spices or cherished timber, even if it is a shipload of silver, it can make huge profits, and no one will sell grain to the Central Plains on a large scale. Otherwise, as long as the retail price of grain is suppressed below 221 stone, there will inevitably be people in the court shouting in the court that they are competing with the people for profit or that the grain is cheap and hurting the peasants and advocate closing the country, because this will move the cake of the ruling class!

Thinking of this, Jiang Tian had to sigh, if Zhang Tao had traveled for decades, or before Chongzhen ascended the throne, there might still be something to do. But after a large-scale war, the country's population fell to 100 million this productivity balance point, the introduction of potatoes and corn led to the outbreak of the agrarian revolution of the population red line rose to more than 200 million, the history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is indeed because of the Yongzheng reform and the promotion of cash crops to make the population grow to 200 million, in order to meet the growing foreign trade and economic cooperation, he Jiang Tian can only bite the head to dig deep potential, the current workshop-style manual production to the level before the industrial revolution, This is enough to meet the material production for waging a small-scale national war, and in the conceivable decades, how can he Jiang Tian find enough labor to complete the work of industrialization and popularization? If industry cannot be popularized, it is impossible to achieve quantitative change and lead to qualitative change. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to continue to follow the administrative order-style mode of industrial development, expanding production by improving the technical level, but this path seemed to be a shortcut, but it only worked when he and Zhang Tao were alive. Just like in the original time and space, administrative intervention allowed China to complete the original construction of industry after liberation, which was able to quickly absorb the surplus population by increasing productivity during the reform and opening up, and completed the prerequisite work of transforming from quantitative change to qualitative change, and also ensured that the record-breaking population base did not lead to turmoil. But now the problem is that China's scientific and technological level is many times higher than the world, and the existing production capacity has achieved extremely high added value and dumped throughout Europe, once the more advanced production equipment is on the market, it is impossible to keep it secret forever, and what kind of changes will be triggered by the West if these mechanical designs are obtained, which he Jiang Tian dare not imagine. Moreover, without a sufficiently broad industrial base, the dictatorship of the proletariat, even capitalism, can only be imported and cannot take root in the country.

That's why he suggested retaining Taiwan's autonomy and letting them become the pioneers of colonial rule, which is not only a matter of reputation and good sounding, but also a way to reduce the cost of robbery, as long as the advanced weapons are in the hands of the central government to maintain absolute military superiority, even if he Zheng family grabs the entire American continent, it is impossible to have two hearts, and the stolen population and resources have become the blood and driving force of China's reform, for which Jiang Tian has not hesitated to tear off the mask of hypocrisy of compassion and compassion, He was determined to drive his lackeys to compete for colonies with Europe, all in order to satisfy Zhang Tao's wish to see the initial success of the revolution while he was alive...... For a moment, Jiang Tian seemed to see Zhang Tao and his own Taizu overlapping together!

"Alas......" Seeing that the venue was arranged, the grandfather and grandson of the Zheng family, who suddenly ascended from hell to heaven again, have now been surrounded by many officials talking and laughing, and they can't help blurting out a sentence that makes the scalp of people who have experienced WG numb: "Go @ capital @ pie @ also @ in @ go @ ah ......"
