Chongzhen three years, the palace tight-fitting cheongsam has been popular in the Ming Dynasty, some women who have been influenced by qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, put on the palace cheongsam made in Hanzhong Mansion, high-heeled shoes, in addition to those cloud temples hanging high bun, suddenly there is a sense of fairy spirit, so that businessmen, scholars for these beauties is shoulder to shoulder, look forward to it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After Zhu Changhao stayed in the palace for more than a month, he took three ironclad ships, with eight hundred personal guards, as well as the royal lady, Xu Fu, housekeeper Liu Zheng, and Lao Dao went east from the Han River together, planning to go to the southeast to inspect it, after all, the winter in the north is really cold. Besides, since Lian'er followed Zhu Changhao, she has never left the gate of the palace at all, and now the child is also a year old, Qiao'er and Wanning Gu Ning are also pregnant, and they can also avoid these colds when they go to the southeast.

After all, in August next year, the palace can add two more new dings.

The three ironclad warships have been transformed into mobile fortresses on the water by the Ordnance Superintendent, and the bottom of the ships is isolated according to the watertight compartment, that is, sometimes, there are loopholes in the hull, and the ship will not sink.

Entering the Han River in winter, after the opening of the Jiahan Canal this year, the river water is in this dry period, and the water level has not dropped much, the water of the Jialing River from the Yudai River, after converging with the Han River, the river surface suddenly becomes mighty, the water surface of the Han River, the boats are endless, a prosperous scene.

From the Han River to the Yangtze River, the Yangtze River to the Xiangjiang River, and then to Guangzhou, and then to the southeast, to Fujian to see, after all, the largest Mawei shipyard in the Ming Dynasty is in Fujian, where there is Zhu Changhao's dream of going out of the ocean.

The inspection began, along the river, from Hanzhong, to Chenggu County, then Yangxian County, Shiquan County, Hanyin County. In these three places, Zhu Changhao personally inspected the construction of local workshops, royal banks, post stations, and some wharves, and after the daily actions of the inspection department, he asked them not to be impatient or impatient, as always, to build boldly, but to be reasonable, not to use construction as an excuse to incorporate the annual allocation of the palace into their own purse.

Now, the salaries of officials at all levels in the area under the administration of King Damingrui are very high, and those who catch copywriters at all levels must go through a unified examination before they can take up their posts, and the royal government has withdrawn the right of the county chiefs to appoint soap officials. For Zhu Changhao, since the financial situation is unified, the big personnel power must also be unified, otherwise once the following "redundant officials" increase, it will cause a financial burden, and it will become a burden for the management class after the Ming Dynasty. Rather than becoming a burden in the future, it is better to make amends now.

After the assessment of the four counties and districts, Zhu Changhao was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, he couldn't imagine that he gave officials at all levels such a high salary, and there was a certain amount of political treatment, they were still insatiable.

In Shiquan County, Zhou Fenghao, the county magistrate, told Zhu Changhao, "Lord Wang, since the beginning of spring this year, there has been a crooked wind in our Shiquan County. ”

"It's okay to correct it, Zhou County Order, you better tell me what's going on!"

"Lord Wang, the county leader of our county, every time he goes down, he will bring many personnel from the Financial Bureau, the Capture Bureau, the Commerce Bureau, the Taxation Bureau, the Agricultural Affairs Bureau, and the Dali Temple Bureau. When you go down, the carriage is empty, and when you come back, there will be a large amount of silver dollars in an iron box inside the carriage. He did not put all these silver dollars in his purse, but distributed them to the bureaus of the various bureaus that went down together. ”

After Zhou Fenghao finished speaking, Zhu Changhao sighed, This county has learned to have all interests, it seems that the process of rule of law in the Ming Dynasty still has a certain way to go.

It has been exactly three years, and the first batch of students of the Royal Law University have also graduated, Zhu Changhao decided to put them down after they pass the legal examination, and set up a clean government yamen in every state capital.

Zhu Changhao hoped that in 20 years, all the 172 state capitals of the Ming Dynasty would be stationed with a clean government yamen. The clean government yamen is directly under the dual management of the political hall and the military hall, and is not under the jurisdiction of the provincial and state governments.

The clean government yamen, which is independent of the local management system, must be able to curb those "tumors" in the Ming officialdom to a certain extent. Besides, there are dozens of people working together to manage the clean government yamen, and it is not one person who has the final say, which means that there is no absolute right, let alone absolute corruption, and the harm is not too great.

……

The warship went all the way down the river, Liu Zilian, Qiao'er, Dong Wanning, Da Yu'er (Bumu Butai), Hai Lanzhu, Liu Rushi, and Zhu Yiyi were all on the warship in the middle.

At the beginning, Nahai Lanzhu vomited the sky, her face turned yellow, her legs trembled, and in that state, there was a feeling of dying.

In such a torment, it took almost half a month for Hai Lanzhu to slowly adapt to the shaking of the water. In the past half a month, Hai Lanzhu has indeed lost a lot, and now her round face has lost weight.

Hai Lanzhu, who has lost weight, looked at her face, although it was a little clear, but her skin felt smoother.

On the deck, Zhu Changhao would play the grassland pastoral song with a horse-head violin, at that time, Hai Lanzhu danced with Bu Mu Butai, and there was a cheerful atmosphere on the whole warship, plus this year, with the land change, as well as the smooth circulation of goods, the beggars on the riverside avenue were basically gone.

The current Ming Dynasty can be said to be the best era, or it can be said to be the worst era. As long as it is now, whether it is a peddler or a wealthy family, as long as you are willing to pay, you will be rewarded. It is said that if there is no money, you are willing to pay labor and wisdom, then at that time, under a certain accumulation, it will be a carp jumping over the dragon gate, and it will turn into a dragon when it meets the clouds.

In this way, some scholars, landlords, or corrupt Confucians who did not realize the great changes of the times in the process of change were stubbornly tenacious in their own glimmers of the past, and as a result, they were surpassed by some emerging and flexible Qianli, and the mood, not to mention how depressed, gave people a feeling that they were just useless.

Zhu Changhao also saw this situation, and immediately required that each workshop or manor should have a copywriter or bookkeeper, and workshops with an income of more than one million silver dollars must have an annual report disclosure system every year.

This is to provide a position for a certain number of readers, after all, the account room and copywriting, that are all literate and chewing people can do it, and there is an annual patent yamen, which will issue patent rewards to some people who work hard.

Zhu Changhao did this, which is to ask that the Ming Empire must develop an atmosphere of attaching importance to knowledge, culture, and talents, after all, ten years of trees, a hundred years to cultivate people. The cultivation of talents must not be faulty, otherwise, it will bring huge disasters to the Ming Empire.

With the help of this "bottle" of the Ming official system, Zhu Changhao wanted to subtly fill with "new wine", which means new wine in old bottles.

The warship traveled to Ankang Prefecture, Ankang has changed a lot in the past two years, relying on the waterway of the Han River, it has developed cement, as well as steel workshops, it can be said that in the whole Ming Dynasty, Ankang due to the abundance of surrounding stone resources, as well as the distribution of a large number of limestone, the wide distribution of the river, some workshop owners in the absence of money to buy a steam engine, directly use the impact of the river water to drive the crusher, to grind limestone and ore.

Wang Zairen and Zhu Changhao are old friends, for the silver dollars collected by the tax bureau every year, Wang Zairen knows that the hard days of Ankang Mansion have finally passed, and he knows that the local officials at all levels are not fooling around, so that for the official term and the benefit of one party, it will be realized in his own future.

Ankang Zhou came down, Zhu Changhao walked through Baihe, Shiyan, Gucheng, and arrived in Xiangyang at once.

Zhe Zhongxin immediately led the crowd to welcome him ten miles away, and Zhu Changhao was also full of gratitude to his housekeeper. To be honest, my first money tree is this Huitong City in Xiangyang. At the beginning, the first batch of money for the development of the palace was taken from Huitong City, and in addition to Xiangyang, a large-scale collective industrial distribution was formed, and the talents cultivated by these industries played a role in the north, southwest, Denglai, and southeast Fujian regions, that is, the spark of the spark, which can start a prairie fire.

Seeing that in the past three years, Zhe Zhongxin's hair has turned gray, and as the governor of the Great Governor, he has not been pampered, which shows that for the prosperity of the Ming Empire, Zhe Zhongxin's efforts are indeed a lot.

In the Governor's Palace, Zhu Changhao asked Zhe Zhongxin to find the officials in charge of the work under him, inquired about the relevant industries, and made some records.

In the Baihe River valley north of Xiangyang, the large estates here are mainly planted, and the textile industry is huge. It's just that many workshops are located by the river, and work directly by the impact of water power, but in some large-scale textile workshops, the improved steam engine can drive the loom and spinning machine to work around the clock. The workshops along the river are greatly affected by the hydrological environment, although they save money, but in the dry season and flood season, the textile workshops will be affected on a large scale.

Zhu Changhao corrected these deficiencies during the inspection, and played an indicative role in the development of light and heavy industries in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to the textile industry and the manor planting industry, Zhu Changhao also looked at the Xiangyang Shipyard and found that they had realized the assembly line operation, so that a certain type of ship was assembled in the form of standard components, and the division of labor and cooperation also dealt a devastating blow to the traditional production mode of those big workers with apprentices.

Finally, the day before leaving from Xiangyang, Zhu Changhao also went in to take a look at Xiangyang. Sailor Base, Xiangyang. The water division was developed in September of the first year of Chongzhen, there were only 8,000 people at the beginning, three years have passed, and now there are 60,000 people, because the Poyang Lake water division and the Dongting Lake water division want to carry out land reform, and now the defense of the Yangtze River basin has been handed over to Xiangyang. Navy.

Judging by what they did, Xiangyang. The water master is also doing very well.

It's just that the combat effectiveness of these 60,000 people is like, and Zhu Changhao plans to test it when he is in Jiujiang.
