It turned out that Emperor Zhu's intention was not only to raise a little silver for the capital construction of the north, but also to take the opportunity to promote the concentration of land and the development of capitalist farms in the north!

The benefits of capital construction are clear! Especially when there is an extreme lack of infrastructure, the rate of return is definitely satisfactory.

The Ming Dynasty is now in a period of extreme lack of infrastructure, and the rich areas in the southeast are a little better, and Emperor Zhu has not thrown a lot of money into infrastructure over the years. In addition to the Huanghuai Yun Dagong, the Ming Dynasty has also built the dams of the rivers that are prone to flooding in the south in the past ten years, and also built a large number of irrigation canals on both sides of the Huai River, turning a lot of land with impermanence and drought into paddy fields with stable and high yields.

In the past ten years, the official roads, canals, and ports in the southeast have also received a lot of capital construction investment - the tall railways and steam locomotives, Emperor Zhu could not have imagined, what he could do was to honestly repair the official roads and water transportation network. The official roads should be paved with stones as much as possible, and the large and small rivers should be dredged and opened as much as possible to increase the coverage density of the water transportation network...... Before the popularization of railways, the economic value of inland waterway transport was extremely high, second only to maritime transport.

Of course, most of the water transportation networks and bluestone roads built by Emperor Zhu in the southeast were tolled! Therefore, these projects are not carried out by the Ministry of Works, but by the Ministry of Households, and sometimes they are contracted to the businessmen who undertake the construction.

Although these toll roads and toll canals, as well as toll bridges, are hated, they are better than nothing!

However, now the economy of the north is too withered, and there are not many roads and canals that can be tolled, but the infrastructure has to be built, otherwise the economy of the north will not be able to get up at all, and the gap between the north and the southeast will become bigger and bigger in the future, and this will not be conducive to the stability of the Ming Dynasty in the long run.

Therefore, Emperor Zhu discussed with Zheng Zhilong and Shen Tingyang for an afternoon, and prepared to invest 100 million yuan for the construction of cities, ports, roads, and canals in the north!

And this 100 million, in fact, does not have to be raised by issuing bonds...... Zhu Cihong, Zheng Zhilong, and Shen Tingyang still have a way to raise this money. They are the richest, richest, and richest in the Ming Dynasty! Can you still stump a small target?

However, the combination of bonds and land certificates can play a role in helping some of the military dependents or volunteers who are good at management to develop capitalist farms.

O capitalist farm!

What is hated a lot...... But this flood beast of capitalism has already appeared in the four rivers and lakes, Guangzhou, Fujian and Guangdong!

Can Emperor Zhu still stop them from going to the north? I can't stop it! The farmers in the southern part of the United States of America want to stop it, and what is the final result?

Therefore, the peasant uncle in the north can only suffer this crime, so let's go together! As for the mixed big farmer or bankruptcy, each depends on creation.

However, Emperor Zhu can ignore the life and death of those good people under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, but he can't ignore the life and death of the northern army and righteous people who follow him, and he can't let them blindly go north - how good it is to stay in the southeast! When the Ming army, eat the emperor's grain, and ride on the heads of the working people in the southeast with Emperor Zhu to be powerful, how happy is it?

It's not easy to make money by going north to run a farm or something, unless you are a northerner who tosses out a good family business in the southeast, or you will be capitalist cannon fodder when you go north!

Now it's liberal capitalism, cutthroat competition, survival of the fittest!

Therefore, Emperor Zhu came up with such a trick, partnering the debt notes with the land certificate, and if he had already saved up his family business in the south, he would buy the land certificate of other people at a low price, and then go back to the north to get a large piece of land as an agricultural capitalist - according to Emperor Zhu's vision, these land certificates only stipulate the size of the land area (with medium land as the standard, if you receive the upper field, you have to get a discount, and you can get more if you receive the land), and do not specify the specific location. Therefore, investors who hold land certificates can receive large plots of land, which is conducive to the development of horse farming and crop rotation.

And those northern army and righteous people who have not saved up their family business in the hot southeast development, don't toss around, the southeast can do anything in the past few years, this has not been successful, and they also went to the north of the Xiaoice River period to farm, then they must not pay for death!

It's better to sell the land certificate for bonds, take the bonds to eat interest, and then give Emperor Zhu a share as an officer and soldier!

Seriously, Emperor Zhu is so good to his own people! It's for their sake! also includes the confused Shoufu Wei Zaode who almost turned himself in.

As soon as the collegial meeting between the two governments on the third day of the fourth month ended, Emperor Zhu left Wei Mingxiang in the court!

"Long live the lord, the minister, the minister, the minister was confused for a while......"

Wei Zaode knew that something bad was going to happen, so he didn't dare to sit or stand, so he knelt down with a plop.

Zhu Cihong shook his head again and again: "Wei Tongzhou, why are you confused for a while?" You've been confused! ”

If you are not confused, can you be a "Saizhuge" for so many years?

Now that "Sai Zhuge " is over, who can replace him? Zhu Cihong pondered, who else in the DPRK and China is more confused? Not only do you have to be confused, but you also have to be obedient, and you have to be a northerner! "Deputy Prime Minister" Zheng Zhilong is already a southerner, and he is also the national ruler, if there is another southerner prime minister, then the northerner party will decline.

If the power of the Northerners Party is weak, Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Sen, and Zheng Jiangong's family will be ready to their tails......

So there must be a northerner prime minister to press Lao Zheng, but who will do it? King Fu is actually good, but the Ming Dynasty has no precedent for the clan to be the prime minister, hey, it's really troublesome!

"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, the minister is confused, the minister is really confused...... Wei Zaode's voice thought again, "The minister is guilty, and the minister only asks for ......"

"Stop, you're drunk, aren't you?" Zhu Cihong raised his hand and stopped Wei Zaode again, "Did I say you were guilty?" Did I let someone check you? ”

"No ......"

Zhu Cihong glared: "Then what are your crimes?" You are really guilty, and I have to cover it! You are the first prime minister I have used, and you have been working for thirteen years, how can you be guilty? ”

Wei Zaode was so moved that tears came out, this emperor is so good, why didn't he hold back being a corrupt official for a while?

Zhu Cihong saw Wei Zaode crying, and hurriedly spoke: "Don't cry, don't cry...... Let's think about how to deal with the aftermath! The Prime Minister is no longer in office, and it is not appropriate to be the Governor and Governor-General. Wei Tongzhou, I have to find you a place to avoid the limelight. ”

Wei Zaode thought to himself: not a governor, not a governor...... Do you want to be the prefect?

Zhu Cihong was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Why don't you go out of the country for me!" ”

"Going abroad? Where to? Wei Zaode looked at Emperor Zhu pitifully and thought: I am still exiled...... Don't know where to go?

Zhu Cihong thought for a while, "Go to Japan first, Japan sent Tokugawa Mitsukuni to visit this time...... Protest to us again! He also threatens to cancel the right of our ships to dock in the port of Uraga, and we have to go to a person of sufficient weight to explain. ”

You have to explain it well, and maybe you have to apologize - the Celestial Empire can't be unreasonable! Now the Ming Navy is fighting water battles with the Spaniards under the flag of the Mongolian Navy in the waters around Japan every day, what kind of thing is this?

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will explain well to the Japanese." Wei Zaode breathed a sigh of relief - Japan is not far away, and you can come back if you go.

Zhu Cihong raised the price for him again, "After going to Japan, I will go to the New World for a walk...... Find a place in the northwest of the New World to establish a stronghold, and take shelter there! ”

This is to the other side of the Pacific!

Wei Zaode was stupid.

Emperor Zhu saw that he was silent, and knew that he had agreed, and then said: "You can come out of the cost of establishing a stronghold in the northwest of the New World!"

The base you have established is considered to be the inner domain that I have given you, and the lord of the domain will give you three generations of hereditary family. Don't be a prince of the country in the future...... Westerners call the New World America, so you should be an American man! ”

In the future, Wei Zaode will be the governor of the United States, and he will overcome the difficulties of the American public! It's a good errand that will go down in history!

However, in the ninth year of Hongxing, no matter how you look at this disposal, it is exile in disguise!
