Chapter 339: "The Southerners Are Bad"

Chapter 339

Since the big clans of Shandong, Hebei, and Guanzhong were beaten by the emperors of the Sui and Tang dynasties in terms of education rights and economic rights, it was actually the Jiangnan Shi clan who took over the banner of the landlord class.

After all, the Silk Road in this era is basically a decoration, not to mention whether the infrastructure is reliable or not, and not to mention how much the number of land transportation is restricted, just the Yuan and Mongolian remnants in the north and the Western Regions, not to mention that the caravans of small households went to the Western Regions, and the larger landlords had to kneel and call Dad.

Although the big families in the north are still secretly trading with the Yuan and Mongolian remnants in the north, tinkering with a little iron, salt, tea, silk and other things to transport north, and exchanging some gold and silver treasures from the hands of the Yuan and Mongolian remnants, that is, Warat and Tatar, they plundered the grassland from the entire Central Plains back then, however, iron is such a thing, the Ming generation is official, and whoever dares to open the furnace to make iron is the sin of the nine tribes if he is caught. But no matter whether your surname is Zhao or Xu, if you are caught, you will basically be beheaded according to the Ming law.

As for salt, as far as the well salt produced in the interior is concerned, the majority is still in the hands of the government, and it is very strictly controlled.

Tea this kind of thing, in the case of abundant materials more than 500 years later, there is still no way to achieve the price of cabbage, you can imagine the production level in the early Ming Dynasty, and it's not so easy for the people in the north to make money on the grassland to relieve greasy, in order to limit the combat effectiveness of the grassland people, this magical oriental leaf is also monopolized by the imperial court in the north, and the restriction of production and the prohibition of the imperial court make this thing sell at a sky-high price on the grassland, and it is not so easy for the big clans in the north to make money on this.

Silk, porcelain or something is not restricted from exports, and there is no problem if you don't open the mutual market to sneak a little past, but back to the original topic, in the early Ming Dynasty, this kind of garbage reached the extreme infrastructure, porcelain on the way to transportation, it may be broken at any time, and if you don't have a little capital, you really don't dare to play this trade export.

Compared with the north, the small life of the landlord class in the south is very nourishing, thanks to the movement of Emperor Taizong to the West, the shipyards in the south have supported a large number of skilled workers, after the ban on the sea was issued again, these craftsmen are basically contracted by the big families in the south, of course, it is impossible for private ships to make a regular Ming army's treasure ships, warships and other things, but the craftsmen who can build treasure ships and warships, build some small boats to crush the barbarians on the sea, there is no problem.

And shipping is notoriously large, it is not too convenient to do this kind of thing, the Song Dynasty knew at that time to put tea and porcelain in a box, with tea to avoid shock, not to mention the Ming Dynasty at this time? The coastal area is not a place where important military towns take root, and the likes of the Japanese and Fang Guozhen are just a small trouble in the eyes of the imperial court, and they are not worth mentioning at all with the Yuanmeng remnants in the north, so the local monitoring is weaker than the north, and the big families have more room to make trouble, plus there are stubble and stubble of important ministers in the south, and the basic magistrates have to go to the Wangzu side to visit first, who dares to stab the child? As a result, the grassroots prefectures and counties have been infiltrated, and it is almost the same.

As for the Japanese Invaders, it's even more of a joke, not to mention the fake Wolves raised by the scholars, it's the real Wokou, at this time, the Japanese group of weak chickens of the Southern Dynasty who were unified by the Northern Dynasties are simply insulting the words of the Southern Dynasties, not to mention what posture level is compared with the later SC's slow rules, it is not comparable to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, you look at the Warring States Period, when Japan boasted that it was not good, a well-known military general with an "army" of fifty or sixty people could garrison a "castle". You know what the hell they are.

Therefore, the prominent families in the south have made a lot of money on the sea, from the level of mouth cannons to the level of wealth, and then to the proportion of official-faced figures, comprehensively beating the north, Xu Qi, the first Jinshi in Ningxia, scolded the southern Yankees is bad, which is understandable.

Envy, jealousy, hatred.

And just when Xu Qi was scolding the southerners, the real southerners Yang Jian and Yang Shangjing were standing at the table, also studying the information coming from the south.

"This time, the Marquis of Fengcheng will not be removed from his post and investigated, but I am afraid that he will have to eat some hanging." Yang Shangjing stood in front of the table with his hands behind his back, his voice a little depressed.

Although according to his ideas and his understanding of the Jiangnan guards in this era, he knew that even if Li Xian was a famous general, it would be impossible to make a quick decision and pacify the mining thieves in the south within a year and a half, but he didn't expect that the gang of wang clans in the south would play so big, so he directly gave Li Xian a hammer on the head, more than a thousand stubborn mining thieves, and he was especially in the mountains, with a little training, it would definitely be difficult to deal with.

So he sighed in his heart, and didn't say anything at all: "Although the thieves are not as big as before the rebellion was quelled in history, the troops used by the imperial court are not as large as they were at that time, is this special...... Some of them are tossed, but I hope that after brushing up this copy, the miners they face will not be directly promoted to elite difficulty. ”

Xu Shangyong stood in front of Yang Shangjing, and when he heard this, his face was a little strange, he shook his head, and said: "This matter, I am afraid that if it does not reach the ears of His Majesty, it will be suppressed by the ministers of Nanzhili, more than a thousand sets of armor seem to be a lot, but how big is the battle of Nanzhili's Ordnance Bureau?" Just write it off on the books, and then there will be no more. ”

Uncle Zhong nodded and echoed: "This news can be seen by the young master, but it is still a loss to the news of the family, in the current court, the outer court and the inner court are in the midst of fierce battles, no one digs into the bottom, who dares to mention this in the court?" ”

Special, accountant or something, annoying.

Yang Shangjing thought about it, and could only pinch his nose and admit it: "Speaking of which, this Nanjing town guard eunuch is not so good with Wang Zhen, and now that the inner court has fallen into a passive h, he is afraid that he will have to have some different thoughts?" Besides, this victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and the matter of more than 1,000 sets of armor can't hurt the foundation of the foreign dynasty at all, and it is useless for him to mention this. ”
