Chapter 155: Mountains and Rivers.
Da Chun didn't expect Ye Zhao to say "go out for a walk", and he went directly to the overpass.
Fu said that the teahouse, the book that Ma San said was "Emperor Shengde Ping Nanyang".
In Yanjing City, there are gradually more people on the street, and the teahouse is also angry, Ma San's voice has a kind of penetrating power of suppression, and some people in the teahouse applaud from time to time.
Ye Zhao picked a seat by the window and looked at these listeners, most of them still wore braids, but also, few of them liked to listen to books after cutting their braids immediately.
Moreover, Yanjing City, from the guests in this teahouse, can see that the room is full of people, almost all of them are green robes, black and shiny braids, and the conditions are good, covered with a splendid horse coat and wearing a jade wrench.
Yanjing City is naturally the political center of the future, this atmosphere, but you have to take your time, the more people under the root of the imperial city, the more stubborn they are, and they always look superior. It's not as open-minded as the southerners.
Ye Zhao thought about the problem of women's foot release again, in fact, in recent years, there has been the rise of women's sports, coupled with education, and the subtle change of various newsprint public opinion, the problem of foot binding has been curbed to a certain extent, especially the emerging businessmen and wage earners, and there are fewer and fewer foot bindings in the second generation.
But it is undeniable that the traditional power is powerful, relying on the subtle and slow influence, if you want to eliminate foot binding nationwide, I am afraid that it will be a rather long process, should you add some forced surname factors?
Ye Zhao pondered silently.
"Master, your Gao Mo!" The man shouted loudly and brought two large bowls of high foam.
Da Chun almost planted his head there, Brother is the emperor, and he came to the poor teahouse to drink high foam?
Ye Zhao smiled slightly and said, "Listen to the book, just drink this for fun, and it tastes right." As he spoke, he patted Da Chun on the shoulder and said, "What's the matter, are you thinking, Brother Jing or Brother Jing?" ”
Da Chun nodded, then shook his head in fear.
Ye Zhao smiled: "I'm honestly afraid, the more I look at you, the more awkward I become, I was going to send you to the patrol hall on an errand, if you are so virtuous, I will send you home directly." ”
Da Chun laughed dryly twice and said, "Listen to the emperor." The inexplicable panic in my heart gradually disappeared, and it was somewhat natural, the emperor was still so kind to himself.
"Let's listen to the book." Ye Zhao pointed to the stage, Ma San and the others were all acquaintances, in the past, he said that the jokes he wrote, all kinds of Western science and technology, were beaten and vomited blood, he hadn't seen him for several years, and the stars had changed, but he didn't know if he still remembered himself?
The guard beside him bowed down and handed over a note.
It's a military newspaper, I think it just came from Ouchi. On the north bank of the Heilongjiang River, there were Rakshasa infantry, and after many investigations, the Rakshasa regiment from the east was about 5,000 people, including more than 1,000 Cossack cavalry.
Ye Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief, the new dynasty finally got a chance to breathe, now the most worrying thing is that the Russians are desperate, recruiting a large number of army forces to Siberia, although the long supply line is a big problem, but the westward advance of Tsarist Russia is blocked, if the whole country is full of strength, iron heart and China to go to war, although the new dynasty has a geographical advantage, but it is also a big trouble.
Now, although the Russians finally sent infantry regiments, they were far less than estimated, and the Russian tsar and the upper nobility were finally unable to make up their minds to wage a large-scale war with China.
On the contrary, the Russians are also carrying out institutional reforms, financial constraints, and Siberia is far away from its homeland, and the best outcome of a decisive battle with the Chinese is only a defeat for both sides.
And as soon as a new dynasty is established, not to mention how much it takes time to stabilize the domestic situation, the empire that is riddled with holes, if it wants to embark on the road of development with a good surname, it is a huge political and economic project.
With a Rakshasa army of about 5,000 people, Hongniang and Han Jinchunbu will not have any pressure to confront it, Hongniang's Xiangshan Army can handle it, and you can also train the cavalry division that has just been integrated into the army by the way, after all, it has just been replaced with a horse gun, which is completely different from the cavalry in the era of cavalry and cold weapons. In the future, a highly mobile strategic force that will suppress rebellions in various parts of the northwest and confront the Russians must do a good job.
Most of the Mongolian tribes have not yet responded to their edicts, and when the ministries are calmed down, they can raise a large number of Mongolian horses. The Mongolian horse lacks impact, but it has good endurance, and the ration is easier to solve, and it is not as picky as some European horses, and it is really the best horse breed to improve the mobility of the legion.
"Master, Ma San didn't see you for a long time, you are auspicious!"
Ye Zhao came back to his senses, but saw that Ma San was giving himself a thousand. I was stunned, I still had a sticky beard, Ma San's eyesight was too clever.
Ma San has met such a noble person in his life, he is afraid that he can recognize Ye Zhao when he turns into ashes, not to mention Ye Zhao's face, in fact, there is no change.
"Get up." Ye Zhao smiled and waved his hand, and said, "You have been rich recently!" Turning around, his attendant presented a ten-dollar note.
Ma San's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly hit a thousand, "Ma San thank you!" Master, you rest first, Ma San still has a book, and I'll say hello to you when I turn back. ”
Ye Zhao snorted.
"Chun'er, what do the people of our Eight Banners in the capital say now?" Ye Zhao suddenly looked back at Da Chun.
The banner people support system, Ye Zhao has already issued an abolition order, but there will be a buffer time of half a year, and the edict has already ordered flag people from all over the country to learn skills and make a living on their own, and at the same time, several training courses sent from Jiangnan have been launched.
Ye Zhao didn't want the situation where the flag people starved to death and the flag girls generally went to sell silver, after all, it was the fault of the whole system to raise a bunch of parasites, and speaking of which, he had lived as a flag man in this world for many years, and Ye Zhao still had some feelings for the flag people.
Benevolence is the best of righteousness, if you don't understand this painstaking effort and wait for death, then there is no way.
Da Chun hesitated and said, "This, Da Chun just returned to Beijing, I really don't know." ”
Ye Zhao smiled and nodded, in fact, you don't need to ask to know, there must be many flag people scolding themselves behind their backs, but sooner or later, they will all thank themselves, if they can have a skill to eat, they will always live harder, and their lives will be more fulfilling.
…… Snowflakes floated outside, and in the west room of the apse of the Heart Nourishing Palace, when it came in from the outside, it was a heat wave. On the kang through the south window of Hongling, Ye Zhao was sitting on it and reading the folds, he had been on the throne for a few days, and he seemed to be lazy and lazy without leaving home, but in fact, the workload was ten times heavier than when he was in Jinling.
At the beginning of the new dynasty, all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, silver, silver, Ye Zhao couldn't help sighing, governing the Yellow River and other waterways, where did this large sum of money come from?
Road paving, needless to say, can only rely on private individuals, such as the Yanjing to Fengtianfu section of the railway, which was abandoned in the middle of the northern country, has been of interest to many merchants.
The two trunk lines leading to Yangzhou and Huangzhou also have to give businessmen favorable conditions, and their own Taihe Bank seems to be going to make a huge investment and slow to achieve results.
Originally, at the stage of accumulation of original funds, he had to go to Europe and America to fish for gold and silver, Ye Zhao did not like to use large sums of money for long-term investment, and now, there is no way to do it.
The railways to Lanzhou and other places in the northwest don't have to think about it now.
Education, agriculture, public health, and so on do not require huge expenditures, not to mention huge military expenditures.
The treasury bonds of nearly 200 million silver dollars, let alone falling, will only hit a new high next year, and how much silver will it cost to repay the interest for a year?
The only good news is that there is a lot of enthusiasm for mining in the north, and the new dynasty is gradually issuing official mining licenses and contracting some minerals to merchants. And these businessmen have no choice but to build bridges and roads to improve the traffic environment.
The deficit in fiscal revenue and expenditure is serious, and the domestic situation is even more difficult.
Although the new dynasty was established, but in fact, most of the north was not peaceful, not to mention it outside the customs, Zhili, Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan were all thieves rampant, with countless ringing horses and private armed forces.
Even when it affects normal business operations, businessmen who have obtained mining official licenses almost all have to organize merchant groups to protect their minerals, and black mine armed forces abound everywhere.
This is still the outskirts of Beijing. As for the northwestern provinces, the soldiers are in trouble, and the backers are making more and more trouble.
The Mongol tribes were not convinced, the Qinghai-Tibet leaders were not heard, Zeng Guofan fled to the northwest, and hooked up with the Ili general Takbu, and even heard that these two old gentlemen began to divide the heads of the frontier tribes and win them over against the Central Plains Dynasty.
After the war, I don't know how many horse bandits will come into being, and it is more time-consuming and labor-intensive than fighting with the real swords and guns of the six kings.
This is the case in Xichuan, the three treasures are like a bamboo to recover Chengdu, but dealing with several mountain bandits in Xichuan is an unprecedented headache.
In Qinghai, the Fairness Party was ready to move, and in Xi'an, Hanzhong, Xing'an and other places, slogans against the imperial system appeared, and at first sight, I knew that it was Lu Yueting's handwriting.
It seems to be a rising empire, but in fact, there is a surging tide and dangers.
Nowadays, the new dynasty relies on the industrial base and wealth creation efficiency of the gradual formation of the climate in the south of the Yangtze River, but if some of these joints go wrong, I am afraid that it will cause a big mess.
Sighing softly and putting down the fold, Ye Zhao picked up the teacup.
On the other side of the kang table, Zhu Sisi, who was wearing a delicate and beautiful police uniform, was reading "Introduction to Chemistry", and she had just learned that the pervert was so capable, why, suddenly became a scientist again?
"Do you understand?" Ye Zhao asked her with a smile.
Zhu Sisi glanced at Ye Zhao and said, "To be honest, is the newsprint boasting that you are also someone else's thing?" ”
The concubine wore a police uniform to read a book with her, how comfortable it was, Ye Zhao's mood was inexplicably relaxed, and he smiled: "If Concubine Ai wants to know, beg me at night, maybe I will tell you." ”
Seeing that there was no one left and right, Zhu Sisi scoffed: "Dead pervert!" ”
Ye Zhao jumped off the kang, smiled and got tired of it, leaned behind Zhu Sisi, gently hugged her, kissed her delicate face, and whispered, "What do you call me?" ”
Zhu Sisi bowed her head and was silent, in fact, her heart was extremely chaotic, Guifei Niangniang, how noble is that? was known by my parents, brother and sister-in-law, I really don't know what it would be like. But what about her, she is really at a loss, although there are many pervert wives and concubines, but it is also interesting to be with Hemeimei.
The most important thing is that no matter what, I felt that I could get along with him on an equal footing, but now, he has become the emperor, and in this Forbidden City, it is even more depressing, and I don't know how many concubines he will have in the future.
"Sisi, I like you the most, you know?" Ye Zhao gently kissed her white neck, smelling the fragrance, and her tenderness surged, "I know that you are a concubine, but you are not happy." ”
Zhu Sisi was stunned, she never knew, it turned out that he knew himself so well, "I knew earlier, I would rather the emperor not do it." Ye Zhao muttered and kissed Zhu Sisi's delicate little face.
was kissed by Ye Zhao, but Zhu Sisi was angry and funny, and came to coax herself again, glared at him, and said, "You know how to deceive people!" But his heart softened, leaned into Ye Zhao's arms, and said softly: "You say, am I not satisfied?" In fact, I know that meeting you is a blessing for me for several lifetimes, and I don't know how miserable it would be without you. Do you know? Guo Ziqiang is divorced, and her husband clearly promised her not to take a concubine, but he regretted it after less than half a year of marriage......"
Ye Zhao sighed softly, hugged her, and said, "It will get better slowly, in the future, maybe a woman's status is higher than that of a man." ”
Zhu Sisi shook her head, hugged one of Ye Zhao's arms with both hands, and slowly narrowed her eyes.
