Chapter 110: Temporary Victory (4)
"Newspapers?"
Taking over this new task, Liu pondered against the large piece of paper in front of him.
Newspapers are always for literate people, and although there are already pastimes such as storytelling at this time, it is better to read them in person after the mouth of the newspaper reader, and there is no such thing as Ava and other places in the "renewal of Vientiane".
So, who is this newspaper, oh no, a newspaper? Only by clarifying this can we know what this newspaper should do in order to run it well. What is certain is that the dignitaries and nobles have their own gossip, and everyone knows the things in the circle--- Zhuge Kongming can know about the world's major events in the era when there is no radio when Zhuge Kongming is in seclusion, which is the role of this circle.
Thinking about it, Liu Xiang pushed open the door, grabbed a handful of broken silver and walked out. Walking through a small alley, the characteristic smell of bluestone slabs blows to your face - the smell of sweat, sewage and all kinds of garbage. Even if the yamen reorganizes the city--- it also sets up a special yamen, hires people to clean up, build new sewers, and maintain the streets; It can't completely hide this unpleasant market atmosphere, of course, this is one of the reasons why Zhu Youlang basically no longer lives in the Burmese palace, but lives in the small but exquisite Restoration Palace.
Liu Xiang had occasionally been to a teahouse or something like a teahouse to eat tea before, and his cold and capable temperament made Xiao Er come over attentively and entertain him with a smile.
"A pot of minced tea, a plate of dried sweet potatoes." Liu Xiang nodded.
Grabbing a piece of dried sweet potato and throwing it into the tea jar to soak, a man in a long shirt walked in, holding a tabloid from nowhere, and the short-clothed gangs in the field stuck out their heads.
"Those who have money will touch a money field, and those who don't have money will have a personal field." He sat on the bench and took the teapot of tea that Xiao Er poured for him.
"Yes, this one is more respected than me, who has an official status." Liu Xiang pricked up his ears, intending to listen carefully to what the storyteller had to say.
……
On 15 April, Zhu Youlang fulfilled his promise and formally appointed Yang Zai as the first assistant to the cabinet. At the same time, Kankan appointed two scholars, both of whom were unknown in history (the time traveled too late, and the famous ones were cold).
However, Zhu Youlang did not give Yang Zaicheng the power of the prime minister from the system, to a certain extent, Yang Zai; Yang Zai didn't remember it at all, and thanked Zhu Youlang for his kindness.
"Get up, Yang Qing has worked hard and deserves the position of first assistant. The same is true for the two secondary assistants. ”
"The recovery of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains is all planned by His Majesty, and Weichen is just a pen post."
"With the Holy Son of Heaven in the court, the recovery of China can be expected."
Hearing that Yang was humble, the two sub-assistants followed the sycophants as clumsily as the echo insects.
"Huh?" Zhu Youlang complained in his heart, "Classmate Yang Zai, if you have anything you want to ask, can't you ask directly?" ”
"Alas! Yang Qing said that this is my headache. At this time, the imperial court can directly govern only two provinces, but according to the economic system, Yunnan has to have three sets of political envoys, capital divisions, and inspection envoys, I am afraid of the end of the Tang Dynasty, and the weekend will unfortunately repeat itself at this time. Can ......"
Zhu Youlang's words were translated into the vernacular: Who asked you to ask about the envoy in Yunnan? I have nothing to do to seal a feudal town as big as the mainland, do I have water in my head?
"Weichen thinks that it is absolutely not feasible to appoint the three divisions of Yunnan, the monarch is weak and the ministers are strong, and they will bring about their own destruction! Cao Pi usurped Han, Sima Yan usurped Wei, Liu Yu usurped Jin...... "Yang Zai is also clever, and opening his mouth is a piece of history."
"Okay, I know." Zhu Youlang felt that a beating was enough, so he didn't mention it again. In fact, for the recovery of Yunnan, Zhu Youlang has been immersed in huge surprises and disbelief: if it is said that Mopanshan killing spies is only a small operation, it is not very difficult to catch the two Burmese kings in history, so as to completely strangle the source of the difficulty of spelling water (Bai Wenxuan and others once pushed to Ava in a wave), and the message to Zhu Chenggong is a remote micro-operation, which can be regarded as a combination of small operation + luck. But the Northern Expedition to Yunnan, divided into joint attacks, and really recaptured a province?
Thinking of this historical fact that had already happened, Zhu Youlang once again fell into great excitement.
This year is 1660, and the historical self will die in two years, and now, he is sitting safely in Ava City, thousands of miles away from the nearest Qing army, and it will take several months for the Qing army to be armed and trained! So many fallen areas on the original map were suddenly red, did you also realize the great cause of those traversers?
After calming down, the brief excitement was filled with problems in various details: compared to the Irrawaddy River basin, which is already under actual control (and even the area from Zhongxing to Awa is considered to be more controllable), the control over Yunnan is now about the same as listening to the tune and not listening to the propaganda. Even if this situation can be alleviated by replacing the officials, if in the end the fundamental interests of the landlords and gentry have to be recognized, this will not last long. The flintlock pistol can also be made in the Manchu Dynasty, and more people make more, food, manpower is also dominated by the Manchu Dynasty, and the track that they get out can be dismantled by finding out the reasons for various cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and the steam engine test is simpler
However, in the fundamental pry of the landlords' lifeline, Zhu Youlang is still full of all kinds of hesitation, hesitation, although in some parts of Myanmar land reform has been implemented, but the Burmese and Han people do not even understand the language, under the cultural fog, the mainland gentry may not be too worried, but if they suddenly turn the old hen into a duck, to attack the Yunnan gentry, not to mention whether the strong dragon can fight the head snake, the Qing army around Yunnan supported by the local gentry instantly obtained the red and blue BUFF, and it must have its own return to the hometown of this kind of eye. With his limited modern knowledge, Zhu Youlang thinks that if he can train an army at the level of the early 19th century, he will not be blinded--- and such an army of middle and lower level officers can be bought with money, do you expect them to help the villagers clean up like the PLA?
He opened a report on the Jinyi Guard, which was a collection of various disciplinary violations in the New Army. Inevitably, there is a significant situation in every company of the New Army: for example, most of the troops will beat and physically punish the soldiers for no reason, but they will control the intensity and will not be so angry that they will stab people or break their tendons. Even the new army he cares about the most can be kidnapped like this by the inertia of the times, Zhu Youlang can't even look at the poor administrative ability of various parts of Myanmar: the vast majority of magistrates are actually still shrunk in the county town, and they don't care about anything except collecting taxes and disaster relief, right? And there are no cadres at the township level who go out of the Irrawaddy Valley. Within the river basin, only the vicinity of Ava and Zhongxing City can better implement the above policies......
If Zhu Youlang's orders can be carried out 100 percent in the Fuming Palace, 80 percent within the walls of Awa, 60 percent in Awa and Zhongxing, less than half of the Irrawaddy River basin, and less than 300 miles out of the Irrawaddy River.
And their opponent, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, although they have not yet implemented the reforms of apportioning the land into the mu and the officials and gentry paying grain as one, but the degree of centralization has also completely exploded itself, at least the vast majority of areas controlled by the Manchu Qing can complete the annual tax amount, and it is the governance of the flow of officials. Zhu Youlang is frightened by the low tax amount in most areas of Yunnan and Myanmar, and even some places are to pay some local products to pull down--- is there still a need for such a powerless county to be restrained?
A blank piece of paper is easy to paint, Zhu Youlang hasn't drawn anything on this blank paper in Myanmar, and someone gave him this colorful food wrapper in Yunnan, which made his mind a mess.
Thank you for the recommendation vote
