66 things come true
They can't be excited, they can't be excited. Because if this law is implemented, then the empire will once again embark on the path of armed armies to fight foreign wars, and war will mean that these merchants will have a more lucrative environment.
Of course, the emperor could have torn up the agreement and turned his back on the people - but this was almost exactly the same situation as the Emperor of the Apocalypse: if he did not rely on the capitalist class, the emperor would always have to fight the bureaucracy endlessly. If we understand the modern history of the world, we can easily conclude that it is never the emperor who has been divided by the scholars and doctors, but the bureaucratic class of scholars who are unwilling to share power.
Because the emperor has an innate advantage in this power game competition: the scholar and bureaucratic class cannot completely abolish the imperial power, and the emperor shares his own power with whoever he shares, so he can cooperate with the bourgeoisie, but the bureaucracy and the doctor cannot compromise.
Perhaps, the bourgeoisie can also subtly influence the bureaucracy, and even integrate into the bureaucracy, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse does not have the courage to challenge head-on, and not everyone has the courage to challenge. When the empire began to decline, the pie of interests became smaller and smaller, and finally the stubborn old forces gained the upper hand in the struggle for power, which was the root cause of the rapid decline of the Ming Empire.
The reflection caused by the defeat caused some advanced bureaucratic classes to begin to change, which is also an important reason why the Ming Empire finally came to where it is today. The current Ming Empire is only on the cusp of change, and it has not fallen to the point where anyone can overthrow it.
This is also an important reason why many capitalist businessmen are willing to believe that Zhu Mu will really fulfill the "King James Wartime Commercial Production Act", they know that what Zhu Mu comes up with can definitely repay the borrowed assets, and they also know that if Zhu Mu breaks his word, the collapse of the entire empire can overthrow the imperial power - just like after the death of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, the capitalists and ministers overwhelmed the imperial power.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse is so strong but there is no ending that can be reversed, and of course it is difficult for Zhu Mu to do it. Therefore, these businessmen here are more willing to believe that the conditions offered by Zhu Mu are true and will definitely be done.
"Your Majesty......" Chen Yue, who was standing beside Zhu Mu, spoke quietly, and asked in a voice that only he could hear: "At this time, take out the "King James Wartime Commercial Production Act", and the empire will once again fall into an internal crisis. ”
"I'm also helpless." Zhu Mu smiled bitterly, he didn't carry these businessmen behind his back, and replied directly to Chen Yue: "The money in the treasury has been controlled by the cabinet ministers, and I have no right to ask at all. ”
"I want to retake Liaodong, suppress the rebellion, and at least get back all the lands that my father lost!" Zhu Mu gritted his teeth when he mentioned this matter, his father Zhu Changle was conscientious and conscientious in his life, and he was also a diligent emperor, but in the last period of his life, he lost some places in Liaodong, and he was deducted with the nickname of filial piety - how can he, as a son, be at ease?
One of the implicit reasons why he was in a hurry to get Liaodong back was to regain the lost land for his father, and then use his dignified martial arts to force the group of scholars who ate idle meals to change the name of the filial piety emperor and restore the reputation of a qualified emperor.
Chen Yue was slightly stunned, and then closed his mouth, he had been with the former emperor Zhu Changle for a long time, and he also had his own feelings for this former emperor, when he heard what Zhu Mu said, he knew that the new emperor he assisted seemed to be more worthy of his loyalty than Zhu Changle, who ascended the throne back then.
Zhu Mu is not an empty talk emperor who only talks but does not do, on the contrary, His Royal Highness the former Crown Prince, who grew up with Wang Jue since childhood, can be said to be a person known for his hard work. What he has done since he ascended the throne is almost the limit of what he can do at present, and before he provoked a conflict with the ministers, he was using his wings as fast as he could.
Externally, the new army supported by Zhu Mu has achieved good results in Liaodong, since Wang Jue, a henchman, protects Zhu Mu in Tangshan, Liaodong and even Gyeonggi, then at least Zhu Mu, who has the support of the Wang family, will be satisfied with the control of the army.
And arming the Jinyi Guard with heavy weapons is another nail that Zhu Mu inserted into the new army to be loyal to himself. In this way, the New Army and the Praetorian Guard were tied together, and they became an absolute fighting force that he Zhu Mu could control. With the support of this force, at least Zhu Mu is already in an invincible position in the army.
Internally, these capitalists that Zhu Mu is recruiting have their own voices in the court. Winning them over will also win over the tongues they put in the court. Although the current official positions of these officials representing the interests of capital are not conspicuous, they can definitely be regarded as a force when condensed.
In the past, it was because their power was too weak to compete with the cabinet and the ministers of various ministries, but if the imperial power was added as a bargaining chip, it was obvious that the situation would be different. At least the emperor had ministers who supported him, and these officials representing the bourgeoisie also had a stronger fighting power because of the emperor's support.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a tacit exchange...... All you can get is an ordinary order, and if you go out and bring up the so-called "King James Wartime Commercial Production Act", I will never admit it, understand? Seeing that these businessmen had digested the shock brought by this bill, Zhu Mu opened his mouth and said slowly.
"1000 guns of 150 mm caliber?" Tan Jincheng was the first to speak, and answered Zhu Mu's expectations in an unparalleled confident tone: "Your Majesty, 2,000 artillery!" Chiyou Heavy Industries started production this afternoon! ”
"Good! Since Your Majesty is willing to be friends with our businessmen and entrepreneurs, of course we are willing to be allies with Your Majesty in weal and woe! Yang Yuheng also stood up, nodded and agreed: "I'll go back to organize production, as many cars as Your Majesty wants, Yang will produce as many cars as he wants!" ”
When Zhu Mu heard that these merchants had finally gotten on his ship, his left hand clenched his fist behind his back, after all, he was only a twenty-year-old young man, and he couldn't do it to the point of being invisible.
