Chapter Seventy-One: A Long Way to Go
The ministers went to the imperial village to take a lunch break and eat, and someone here continued to farm, and in the afternoon, they basically made a show, and then went back to the palace. Zhu Yijun doesn't expect these people to do anything, and he doesn't want to care.
Whether it is in the past life or in this life, it is not a big deal for an official not to farm, and the social division of labor is different!
The resting places of Zhu Yijun and Empress Dowager Li had already been arranged, all arranged by Wu Qingbo and Li Wei. seems to be to show himself, the one who arranged is called a rich person, and in Zhu Yijun's opinion, the whole is a nouveau riche temperament.
There is no place where there is no place that does not reflect the word "rich".
Empress Dowager Li not only did not dislike it, but was very happy, which was directly related to her background. Of course, after so many years in the palace and being the queen mother, her vision is different, but the Empress Dowager Li still likes money the most.
What kind of writing, calligraphy, painting, antique jewelry, all of them have no money, and now she is very happy to see that her father eats and wears very well.
What is the standard for whether food and clothing are good or not, it is also simple in Empress Dowager Li, that is, it depends on whether you can afford expensive things, and whether you can afford to eat expensive things. Not to mention in this era, people who think like this in later generations are also grasping a lot.
Don't ask for the best, but ask for the most expensive, Zhu Yijun watched Wu Qingbo and Empress Dowager Li chatting, he didn't care, he sat next to him and ate with a smile.
After a busy morning, Zhu Yijun was really hungry, and the food was very sweet.
Seeing that Wu Qingbo and Empress Dowager Li were almost talking, Zhu Yijun spoke first and said: "Wu Qingbo, it's been a busy morning, and the Queen Mother is tired, let's let the Queen Mother take a break!" After speaking, Zhu Yijun looked at Empress Dowager Li with a smile.
"Queen Mother, don't get tired, let's take a rest!"
Empress Dowager Li nodded, she was indeed a little tired, and when her son said this, she really wanted to sleep, so she nodded and said, "Go and take a rest at the mourning family, and you two grandchildren should also find a place to rest!" ”
"Don't worry, Queen Mother!" Zhu Yijun nodded with a smile and sent Empress Dowager Li to rest.
After Empress Dowager Li left, Zhu Yijun smiled and said to Wu Qingbo: "Let's go shopping!" ”
Wu Qingbo nodded hurriedly, he also smacked a little taste, the emperor obviously wanted to come here to take a look, but Wu Qingbo didn't feel anything wrong, but was very happy. If the emperor thinks that he has done a good job, will he have more opportunities in the future?
Zhu Yijun, accompanied by Wu Qingbo, walked around the imperial village.
The entire Huangzhuang has been divided into several areas, Zhu Yijun and their area is planted with corn, not far forward is planted with potatoes, and the area on the right is planted with sweet potatoes. The area on the left is a greenhouse, but it's not winter, and although vegetables are also grown in the greenhouse, the profit is not so high.
After walking around, Zhu Yijun was very satisfied with the layout of the Huangzhuang.
Standing in the field, breathing in the fresh air, Zhu Yijun felt a lot more relaxed physically and mentally. The Imperial Palace Ouchi is really not a place for longevity, and just staying in it makes me feel depressed, and I really want to live here for a while.
However, Zhu Yijun also knew that this was impossible, so he could only fantasize about it.
After sending Wu Qingbo away, Zhu Yijun found Zhang Whale again and asked him to take him to the silver vault to have a look.
The silver vault is actually nothing to look at, but Zhu Yijun is curious! It's been two lifetimes, and Zhu Yijun has never seen what Jinshan Yinhai is. Sure enough, after entering the silver warehouse, Zhu Yijun was shocked.
All the silver in the treasury was packed in wooden boxes, and fifty-one taels of large silver ingots were neatly stacked.
Picked up one and turned it upside down, and glanced at the imprints behind it, all of which were official silver, and there were also whole boxes of gold next to it, and the big gold ingots were golden. Zhu Yijun picked one up, put it in the innermost part and bit it, and then put the gold ingots back.
After satisfying his curiosity, Zhu Yijun left the silver vault satisfied.
Things in the afternoon were really much simpler, everyone tacitly walked a form, and then went home. Even those imperial historians and officials of the Ministry of Rites did not stand up, and they did not do anything good to offend people.
Back in the palace, Zhu Yijun breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, hoping to toss less!
Sitting on the dragon chair in the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yijun began to ponder his arrangements for this period of time, first of all, Dongchang's side, arranged for spies to go to Haojiang, and arranged for Zhang Whale to contact Zhang Juzheng. The inner school is still continuing to train eunuchs, and everything is going according to plan.
Although the school palace is also cultivating some people, Zhu Yijun knows that it is just laying the foundation there, and it can't be put on the stage yet.
The medical side is almost underway, but now it is only under the name of the Tai Hospital, and it is impossible to establish medicine for the time being. Those ministers who read, they look down on medicine.
Although he shouts that he is not a good doctor if he is not a good person, but it is not possible to build medicine, medicine is miscellaneous science, and Confucianism is obvious learning.
The inner factory has gained a firm foothold in the capital, and the matter of reining orphans is also underway, this matter is the responsibility of Sandezi, if you want to see results, it is definitely not a day and a half to achieve it, it will take time.
Chen Ju went out to do business and was ready to build a steel plant, but it had not yet been rolled out and needed a lot of money.
Zhu Yijun is ready to make a deal for Chen Ju, otherwise he won't be able to support such a big investment. In the previous life, the preparation required a lot of expenses, whether it was land or ore, etc., all of them needed money, although it was hung under the War Bureau, but the War Bureau was originally an empty shell yamen.
Looking at the things he listed, Zhu Yijun sighed, he still had to take his time!
With Zhu Yijun's personal cultivation, the entire Ming Dynasty was busy farming, and the officialdom stopped a lot. After all, farming is absolutely the top priority for an agrarian country, and even corrupt officials know that farming is not good, and they can't be greedy if they want to be greedy in the autumn.
Spring ploughing is almost busy, and the time has entered June, and Zhang Juzheng's letter shook the Ming Dynasty again.
Zhang Juzheng's recital is called: Lifting the general to fold.
"The ancients said that although the world is peaceful, forgetting the war will be dangerous. Today, the promotion has been peaceful for a long time, the armament is slack, and the staff is subject to the restraint of the scribes. In the future, those who are loyal and brave should be given the right to do things, so that they can display their talents."
This twist and turn was very appreciated by Zhu Yijun, to put it bluntly, this twist and turn means to loosen the ties of the generals. It can be said that this is a great step forward to give military generals the right to act cheaply without being subject to civilian control.
Zhu Yijun somewhat understood the relationship between Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang at this time, maybe Qi Jiguang befriended Zhang Juzheng and gave Zhang Juzheng gifts, but he didn't have any dirty thoughts in his heart, but was very upright.
People in this era pay attention to the grace of knowledge, and Zhang Juzheng is the grace of knowing Qi Jiguang!
