Hearing Yang Shaofeng say this, Zhu Gaochi turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yang Shaofeng asked rhetorically: "What about people? What about the ship? ”

Zhu Gaochi is now yelling at the act of pushing the grace order and not concealing it at all, after all, Zhu Laosi will always have a day when he hangs up, and as soon as Zhu Laosi hangs, many problems that Zhu Laosi will be forced to suppress will be exposed, and these problems are not at all that Zhu Gaochi can continue to suppress.

At the very least, Zhu Laosi's relatives led the army to fight in the south and the north, and their control over the army was far from being comparable to Zhu Gaochi.

This is also why the founding emperors of all dynasties basically did whatever they wanted, while the later emperors could only continue to compromise with civil officials and military generals.

It's like the Ming Dynasty who finally sang the cool Ming, it's not that the emperors of the later dynasties don't know the importance of the people, and it's not that they are all stupid enough to think that their world has to be governed by civil and military officials.

is because they do not have the prestige of Zhu Chongba and Zhu Laosi in the army, and they can't suppress the army at all, so they can only rely on civil and military officials.

It is estimated that Zhu Gaochi also understands this, so he is in a hurry to play the trick of shifting the seal and pushing grace now.

But the question is, what about people?

Yes, now that Zhu Gaochi has proposed this trick of replacing the fiefdom and then pushing the envelope, it is indeed a good routine, yes, Zhu Gaochu who is far away in the Western Regions and Zhu Gaosui who is close in front of him also expressed their support, and it is not wrong that they are even willing to take the lead in selling their son.

But the real problem is that even if Zhu Gaochu and Zhu Gaosui are willing to take the lead in selling their sons, Zhu Gaochi will sell all his sons, which is actually useless at all.

Because the data of the people of the Ming Dynasty is there, the population of less than 70 million and the population of nearly 200 million in the late Ming Dynasty are completely two different concepts.

In the absence of enough people, even if all the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty were willing to sell their sons and were willing to empty their own family funds to replace their fiefs, there were still not many people available.

Do you expect these vassal kings to cultivate the land by themselves?

Obviously, this is impossible, even if these feudal kings and clans have nothing to do and run to chant poems and even some to study medicine, no one will be willing to farm.

After all, they were all raised as pigs.

At the same time, the treasury of the Ming Dynasty could not afford the loss caused by the relocation of tens of millions of people at one time-

Even if we don't consider the countless cattle, sheep, seeds, and other means of production that the people need to go to sea, the market shrinks just because of the decrease in the number of people, which makes the treasury revenue decline, and the current Ming treasury cannot afford it.

Because the construction of river bridges is now in full swing in various places, and a lot of silver is spent like flowing water.

Even if you take a step back, the Ming Dynasty is now ushering in a population explosion, and the number of people has skyrocketed from less than 70 million to 100 million or even 200 million, but it is actually not of much use.

Because if you want to transport people to sea, you have to rely on treasure ships.

The construction of a treasure ship and the construction of an ordinary sampan are fundamentally two concepts, and it takes months or even years for a treasure ship to be built from the beginning to the launch, and it is not at all that it can be built.

Not to mention that in the absence of a steam engine, the treasure ship could only rely on wind power and manpower to paddle at sea, and it often took a year or more to transfer the people once.

The combination of these messy problems means that Da Ming can't afford to replace his fiefdom overseas and then push it to his grace now.

So the point of the problem now is that Daming must first hold and digest all the places like Myanmar, and at the same time encourage the people to have more children and more trees.

Only when the number of people is large enough can the Ming Dynasty really begin to migrate and expand.

Only now that the people are planting more trees, they don't have to worry about not having enough wood to build treasure ships in the future.

However, it takes time for trees to grow, and it takes time for people to go from being a baby to being able to work in the field, a process that often takes fifteen or six years.

This also means that if you really want to play the game of replacing fiefdoms, it will take at least ten years or even decades.

"So, in the end, it's really just a problem."

Yang Shaofeng began to point out the country again, and only a feather fan was left in his hand: "There are not enough people, and the rest is basically empty talk."

Needless to say, the natives, regardless of whether they are from Cochin or Burma, even the local people of Champa and Ailao who are now actively attached to it are actually not so reliable, and there is a possibility of backlash at any time, and in the end they still have to rely on the people of my Ming Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, if you want to solve this problem, you have to make the people of Daming willing to have more children, and if you want the people to have more children, the current incentive policy is still far from enough.

Not to mention, the condition of giving birth to three at a time to have a reward is too harsh, after all, it is difficult enough to give birth to two at a time, let alone give birth to three at a time?

Therefore, we can't just reward those who give birth to three children in one child, we have to expand this reward, and all those who give birth to more should be rewarded.

For example, if you have a few children, you will give any benefits, and if you have fewer children, what punishment will there be, as long as the rules are set, the people will definitely be willing to have more. ”

For example, in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the flower planters encouraged childbearing, so that the population of only about 540 million in 1949 increased to 1 billion in 1970.

The population explosion has brought a huge demographic dividend——

The generation born in the 1950s and 60s, by the 1980s and 90s, was just 20 to 30 years old, and belonged to the most elite labor force.

Of course, there are two sides to everything, and population explosion is no exception.

Rapid population growth will naturally bring corresponding pressures, such as food, land resources, education, health care, and transportation.

From this point of view, family planning is actually very necessary.

But on the other hand, Mr. Ma Yinchu, who doesn't know whether he is back or Han, proposed family planning, but his old man himself married two wives and gave birth to seven children, how should this be calculated?

Moreover, family planning is originally only aimed at Han and not for any other ethnic minorities, and the proportion of Han nationality has dropped from 98% in 1949 to 90% in 2019, how should this be calculated?

Not to mention, because this thing has also triggered a more fucked cage for birds - because of the development of the aging population, there is a shortage of labor, and then the introduction of "elites" such as Nigo to solve this problem, how to calculate this matter?

Therefore, there are two sides to everything, whether it is good or bad, and it can only be left to future generations to judge the rebellion.

As for the aging of the population, Yang Shaofeng is really not too worried.

Because before World War II, although the fertility rate was high, it was restricted by war and medical and health conditions, so the population growth was not too much, at least the medical and health conditions of the Ming Dynasty and the health and medical conditions after World War II could not be compared.

It is precisely because of this that Yang Shaofeng will directly put forward a proposal to encourage childbirth.

Zhu Gaochi also agreed with Yang Shaofeng's proposal to encourage childbearing: "It does make sense.

In this way, I'll leave the matter of how to reward you, Xia Lao...... Xia Butang, you go and communicate with him, and the rest of the problems will be solved by the father. ”

"What?"

Yang Shaofeng looked at Zhu Gaochi with a confused expression, curled his finger and pointed at himself, and asked, "Me?" Let me solve Xia Lao's pick? Is that old pick so easy to solve? ”

Zhu Gaochi hummed and said, "Okay, this matter is settled, and my father also believes in your ability." As for how to discuss with Xia Laojiao, that's your business. ”

……

"Why don't you dare to steal the jade seal? You went to steal the jade seal and stamped it, let's go directly to Myanmar to kill Li Liduo, now it's okay, I will use the royal flag to resist. ”

Since he was thrown into a big pot by Zhu Gaochi, Yang Shaofeng has secretly run away - taking people to chase and kill Li Li by the way, stirring up the storm in Myanmar, isn't it fragrant?

The fool will stay in Jiaozhi to take the blame for Zhu Gaochi's fat boy!

But what Yang Shaofeng didn't expect was that he ran away, and Zhu Zhanji also ran away, and in order to ensure safety, he deliberately pulled a tiger skin and gave the prince to the young army.

The problem is that Zhu Zhanji's tiger skin was pulled with the royal flag in Yang Shaofeng's hand, which means that a cauldron was buckled on Yang Shaofeng's head.

That's why Yang Shaofeng scolded and accused Zhu Zhanji: "It is said that there is a soldier and a nest of bears, I think you Zhu Erjiu is too cowardly!"

You directly and secretly stamped a seal with the jade seal, how can the emperor's grandfather and his old man still beat you to death? Even if he were to kill you, you wouldn't run?

When we go back, his old man is probably only worried, where will he think of turning over the accounts and beating you? ”

was accused by Yang Shaofeng back and forth, Zhu Zhanji was suddenly angry, and pointed at Yang Shaofeng and said, "You don't talk to me about those useless things!" And said I didn't dare to steal, so why didn't you go? ”

Flicking his sleeves angrily, Zhu Zhanji continued: "Haven't you found out yet?

Since the two of us had a son, the emperor's grandfather and his old man are now thinking about those two divine beasts!

To put it bluntly, it's nothing for my son or your son to steal the jade seal, it is estimated that the emperor's grandfather and his old man are willing to take the jade seal to smash walnuts for them, but if it is replaced by the two of us, it is estimated that he can really be killed, because his old man is willing to do it now! ”

As soon as he talked about his son, Zhu Zhanji suddenly remembered the Hu family who was far away in the capital: "I don't know how my daughter-in-law is doing now?" Is it fat or thin? ”

With a hateful snort, Zhu Zhanji continued to scold: "It's all to blame on that damn Li Li, if it weren't for him, it is estimated that our brother would still be in the capital now." ”

Yang Shaofeng sighed and said, "Sure enough, no one can escape the law of true fragrance." ”

"What is the law of true fragrance?"

Zhu Zhanji looked at Yang Shaofeng with a confused expression and asked, "Why am I so fragrant?" ”

Yang Shaofeng said: "Who thought his daughter-in-law was like a piece of wood? ”

Zhu Zhanji's face turned red, and he said fiercely: "I was talking nonsense at the time, I can't take it seriously, I can't take it seriously." If you really talk about it, my daughter-in-law is dignified and steady. ”

After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji continued: "By the way, I don't know if my daughter-in-law gave birth to a son or a daughter this time, it would be nice if she gave birth to a daughter." ”

Yang Shaofeng was also suddenly interested: "What? Your daughter-in-law will marry my son after giving birth to a daughter? ”

Zhu Zhanji nodded and replied, "That's natural, my daughter-in-law is going to give birth to a daughter, so I will marry my daughter to your son."

Of course, the reverse is also true, after your family has a daughter, you must marry my son. ”

Yang Shaofeng said: "It's okay." As long as you give the bride price, I will give my daughter in marriage to your son. ”

"What bride price do you want?"

Zhu Zhanji asked rhetorically: "You don't want the gold bricks to be three feet deep, and what are the stars and two months?" ”

Yang Shaofeng laughed and replied, "Bullshit." What is the gold brick paving three feet deep, you Zhu Erjiu can't afford it, you can also give it something like a golden horse and a golden man.

There are also one or two stars in February and two months, there are so many meteorites in the world that a few catties of stars can be given, not to mention one, two, two, two, so these things are not counted. ”

Hearing Yang Shaofeng say this, Zhu Zhanji suddenly became alert and asked, "Then what do you want?" ”

Yang Shaofeng said: "I want my daughter to be willing." If she is willing to marry your son, then I agree with whether your family will give a bride price or not, and if she is unwilling, I will not agree with how much bride price you give me. ”

Zhu Zhanji snorted and said, "Aren't you? Since ancient times, it has been the words of the parents' matchmaker, and you have to pay attention to the right person, and you can have similar conditions as your family, and there are only a few of them in the whole Ming Dynasty, and there are only my family of similar age, what do you want? ”

"I pick a son-in-law, and I never look at whether he has money or not, anyway, what I have is money."

Yang Shaofeng's face was full of pride: "What good do some yellow and white things do to me?"

However, what you said is true, and there are really not many people who can meet this condition, and it is also a headache. ”

Zhu Zhanji hurriedly nodded and responded: "That's right, it's the right one, so your daughter still has to marry my son." ”

After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji increased his stakes again: "In this way, in addition to the three media and six hires, I will add an additional piece of land within a radius of thousands of miles to give you a dowry, how about it?" ”

Yang Shaofeng looked at Zhu Zhanji and said, "Not how! You have a good calculation, you gave the dowry, and my daughter still has to bring it over? It's your son's back and forth!

Also, let's talk about this matter when we return to the capital, now let's think about how to kill Li Li's grandson, otherwise the emperor's grandfather and father-in-law may really hang the two of us and beat us. ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "Don't worry.

You have fifty personal soldiers, and in addition to the three battalions of personal guards, I have abducted my father's young army of the crown prince, which together is almost 20,000 people.

When Dingguo Gong and Yongshun Bo came over with their personal guards, it is estimated that we have more than 30,000 to 40,000 horses in our hands. ”

After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji then asked, "Why don't you solve the Yungui toast?" ”

Yang Shaofeng smiled strangely and said, "When Li Li is solved, the remaining problems will no longer be a problem." ”
