Chapter 230: Dare to go wild in front of the Royal Weaving Bureau
Without the Royal Weaving Bureau and the Royal Industrial Company, Zhu Youxiao's annual income would have been reduced by nearly 10 million silver dollars, which would mean that the disaster relief in the north and the training and recruitment of the Praetorian Guard, as well as the research and development work of the Royal Academy of Sciences and the Royal Academy of Engineering, and the development and mass production of new weapons in the Ordnance Department would have been completely terminated.

Not only that, but now the major projects carried out in various places have also had to be stopped, which has led to more unemployment.
It was precisely because of the technical and political advantages of the Royal Weaving Bureau and the Royal Industrial Company that the state finances were eased, and Zhu Youxiao was able to directly control more wealth, so that the Ming train began to accelerate, and the class contradictions brought about by land annexation were alleviated.
The most significant effect is that the number of displaced people in various places, especially the displaced people in the north, has decreased a lot, Zhu Youxiao asked the household department to make statistics, at least thirty percent less than the five years of the Apocalypse, and the most direct evidence is that the peasant uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty has not broken out until now, and the frequency of sporadic uprisings and riots has also decreased, and for the first time there are more riots in the south than in the north.
But if you stop the appropriation of the commodity economy now, the result will only be more displacement, and the advanced productive forces brought about by your own traveler and the scientific research system you have established will only bring more wealth to the selfish gentry class, making them more capable of controlling the country.
Unless Zhu Youxiao is crazy, he will be stupidly led by the nose by these officials of the South 0 Capital to ban the Royal Weaving Bureau and the Royal Industrial Company.
Not only can it not be canceled, Zhu Youxiao feels that he also needs to let the Royal Weaving Bureau and the Royal Industrial Company and other national capital enterprises take this opportunity to further expand, not only these two, but also the Royal Bank and Huangzhuang.
"Wu Jin, you immediately send someone to summon Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, and Hu Shouchun, the head of the Royal Bank, to Nan0 Beijing", after giving the order, Zhu Youxiao personally went to the Royal Weaving Bureau built in Nan 0 Beijing.
……
And here, when Wang Wenkui, the governor of Yingtian, met with Dong Qichang and Chen Mingxia, he sighed happily: "Today, I mentioned to Your Majesty the matter of banning the Royal Weaving Bureau, and Your Majesty seems to be unwilling, even if many ministers have unanimously suggested it, it is the same. ”
"But if Your Majesty does not agree to ban the Royal Weaving Bureau, or let the Royal Weaving Bureau be under the management of our civil officials, it will be difficult for more people to survive, and more importantly, it will be difficult for us scholars to speak after many years, and Your Majesty will treat us as nothing more than swords, fish and meat, the recent slaughter of the Confucian Sect of the Northern Sect, does not mean this, once Your Majesty controls the wealth of Jiangnan, we will also let Your Majesty slaughter."
Dong Qichang said and said with a smile: "I thought that contacting a few of my friends and suggesting that Your Majesty ban the Royal Weaving Bureau together would make Your Majesty compromise, but Unexpectedly, Your Majesty was stubborn to this extent, and now it seems that you can't force it, after all, Your Majesty is not so easy to get along with today, it is better to let the people try, but to see if Your Majesty dares to kill more than a thousand people on the ground." ”
Chen Mingxia also nodded and said: "What Dong Gong said is that the eunuch Wei Zhongxian was so rampant that back then, didn't his minions in Dongchang still be beaten back by my Suzhou righteous people, I will go back to visit Mr. Tianru, he is a giant of the Restoration Society, and he will be able to gather the people with lofty ideals in Jiangnan. ”
"So very good, I'll also contact a group of Confucian friends, but now that the minions of Dongchang are all over the south of the Yangtze River, it's better to be careful, and then we will still take the Wenhui as an opportunity, and it just so happens that the old man's birthday is coming, so for this purpose, we invite scholars from all over the country to come to the meeting in the Lishui Pavilion."
Dong Qichang said this, Wang Wenkui and Chen Mingxia also deeply agreed, and also flattered the emperor by the way.
And Dong Qichang was very satisfied, and continued: "However, it is better for Your Majesty to take the initiative to ban the Royal Weaving Bureau, unless it is absolutely necessary, there is no need to tear your face with Your Majesty, after all, it is difficult to guarantee, Your Majesty would rather offend the world's scholars than take our lives, with the tyrannical nature of Your Majesty today, it is not impossible, therefore, Wang Zhongcheng has to secretly let the gangsters and thieves who are mixed around to do a few more big cases, in short, the more unstable the places in Jiangnan, the better, from time to time kill a few people and set a few fires, Let His Majesty be aware of the consequences of not banning the Royal Weaving Bureau. ”
"Naturally, I have already informed the people below about the affairs of the Sharon Gang and other gangs, so that they will turn a blind eye," said Wang Wenkui, the governor of Yingtian.
Just as Wang Wenkui said, after that, the entire rich and elegant place in the south of the Yangtze River suddenly fell into an unprecedented public security crisis, and criminal cases in various places sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, because Zhu Youxiao and others killed dozens of people of the Sharon Gang, which actually made the Sharon Gang directly have a jealousy against the northerners in Nan 0 Beijing, and brazenly robbed the merchants from the north.
Moreover, when Zhu Youxiao came to the Royal Weaving Bureau in civilian clothes, he saw a person fall to the ground with his own eyes, bleeding all over the ground, and the murderer simply wiped the knife and swaggered away.
Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but be furious, and ordered: "Arrest the murderer, who gave him such a big courage to dare to commit murder under the bald head, in addition, Li Mingrui, you go to Jiangning County and let him come to see me, I want to ask him how he manages Jiangning County!" ”
As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao walked towards the Royal Weaving Bureau, but before he got closer, more than a dozen people surrounded him: "Are you here to sell cloth?" ”
"Exactly", Zhu Youxiao replied with a smile.
As a result, as soon as he said this, a big man shouted directly: "Call me!" ”
Suddenly, more than a dozen big Han people called Zhu Youxiao here.
However, before the big men could rush in, the first one fell to the ground, and a large hole suddenly appeared in his chest, and blood gushed out.
Wu Jin and a few Dongchang fanzi, who were close to him, also drew their knives and walked towards the rest of the big men.
Seeing this, the gangsters knew that they had encountered a hard character, and they were busy running back, but Wu Jin still threw out a knife and slashed directly at one person's calf, and the person who was hurting had to fall to the ground and screamed.
"Tell me quickly, who told you to go wild in front of this Royal Weaving Bureau!"
Wu Jin put the knife on the man's neck and asked, and the gangster had to obediently reply: "Yes, it was the Wang steward of the Dong family who asked us to do it, saying that the Royal Weaving Bureau had affected his business and wanted us to drive away the guests who came here to buy cloth." ”
"Hmph, the bosses of these weaving workshops can really do anything for their own interests, but the dignified Royal Weaving Bureau is also official, how can they be bullied to such a point, what are these officials in Nan0 Jing doing, then the Jiangning County Order does not have to be summoned, directly dismissed and escorted, if I don't give me a reason enough to convince me, I will kill him directly!"
Zhu Youxiao walked towards the Royal Weaving Bureau as he spoke, and at this time, Jiangning Weaving Mao Yuanyi walked out: "Weichen has lost his welcome, please punish Your Majesty." ”
