When Wang Puzheng was talking to Li Xiangjun, Lu Liu's voice came from outside the door: "Lord Wang, the three pavilion elders are here." ”

"The old man is here?" Wang Pu shook his head angrily, and said to Li Xiangjun, "In this way, you go to Rushi and Qingyan now, and ask them to prepare the detailed information of the book and the detailed plan for the battle, and when I finish discussing the business with the old man, I will go to them." ”

"Hmm."

Li Xiangjun responded obediently and turned around.

Wang Pu straightened his collar and followed Lu Liu to the front hall, in the front hall, Sun Chuanting, Qian Qianyi and Lu Daqi had been waiting for a long time, Wang Pu hurriedly hugged his fists and smiled: "Oh, it's really damn, let the three pavilion elders wait for a long time." ”

Qian Qianyi and Lu Daqi hurriedly got up and said, "How dare you." ”

Sun Chuanting shook his head with a wry smile, and said to Qian Qianyi: "Elder Qian Ge, show him the five-year plan outline drafted by the cabinet." ”

Qian Qianyi responded, solemnly picked up a folder from the table and handed it to Wang Pu, Wang Pu quickly stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and saw that the title page was written in small block letters with the four Chinese characters of "Five-Year Plan Outline", Wang Pu then remembered that this five-year plan was specially formulated by the cabinet he asked the cabinet.

In recent years, with the recovery of production and economy in the Ming Empire, industry and commerce have gradually flourished, and things are becoming more and more complicated and difficult to manage.

While Wang Pu was flipping through it, Qian Qianyi explained: "Lord Wang, the main purpose of the five-year plan drawn up by the cabinet this time is to vigorously support industry and commerce, that is, a central point mentioned by Wang Ye, and there are three key points in supporting industry and commerce: one is to reduce the resistance to the development of industry and commerce, the second is to set up banks to lend to factories above designated size, and the third is to instruct the Academy of Military Sciences to vigorously develop alternative machinery and improve the efficiency of workers. ”

The biggest obstacle to the development of industry and commerce comes from the deep-rooted traditional ideas of the Chinese.

For example, since ancient times, Chinese have a particularly deep affection for the land, so the excavation of underground minerals is not recognized by the world, especially when the mineral deposits involve the ancestral graves of local wealthy families or officials, local wealthy families or officials will often forcibly obstruct because of the theory of feng shui, which requires the central political axe to be suppressed with an iron fist.

There is nothing to say about this, as long as the wrists of the cabinet and the central military and political axe are strong enough, Wang Pu believes that there will be no problems.

Wang Pu was a little worried about the establishment of a bank to lend money to factories above designated size, for Wang Pu, there is no problem with the bank's start-up capital, the silver taels obtained from the last auction of official assets are still in the treasury of the household domain, and the Wang family also has silver, Huang Degong picked up the gold and silver treasures from the Hunhe River and transported them back to Nanjing for auction, and obtained nearly 20 million taels of silver, which is enough to establish a state-owned bank and a private bank.

Wang Pu is worried about the lack of banking professionals in Daming, the bank is a key department, that is a good business to make money, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, the bank is also a high-risk business, in case of careless lending, the accumulation of too many non-performing assets, it is possible to lose money, therefore, not careless.

Putting down the folder in his hand for a while, Wang Pu asked, "Three elders, have you discussed the matter of opening a bank?" ”

Qian Qianyi and Lu Daqi's eyes turned to Sun Chuanting at the same time, and Sun Chuanting said: "Probably discussed it, judging from the current situation, all industries in Jiangnan have more or less the problem of shortage of funds, if they can get sufficient financial support, I believe the development speed will be much faster." ”

"Then there's the issue of exchange." Qian Qianyi added, "At present, the industry and commerce in the south of the Yangtze River are ushering in an opportunity for great development, the silk of Zhejiang, the porcelain of Jiangxi, the tea of Fujian, the medicinal materials of Yunnan, the Fenjiu of Shanxi, the fur of Saiwai, the ginseng of Liaodong, and the grain of Huguang, the goods come and go, and the trade is getting bigger and bigger, and it is often a business of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and it is really inconvenient for merchants to carry so many silver taels, so it is urgent to open a bank." ”

Lu Daqi said with some frustration: "The only pity is that we don't have professionals in China who know how to operate banks. ”

"That's it......" Wang Pu said after thinking about it, "first hire a group of professionals from Europe who know how to operate a bank, and then set up a finance major at Imperial University and Yangming University to train a group of local banking talents, and in three years we will be able to have the first batch of banking talents, and then officially establish a bank, how about it?" ”

Qian Qianyi and Lu Daqi complimented at the same time: "The prince is wise." ”

Sun Chuanting said: "Then it's decided." ”

Wang Pu said: "There is also the Military Academy of Sciences to study the matter of replacing machinery, we must pay close attention." ”

With the stability of the situation and the vigorous development of industry and commerce in Jiangnan, the labor shortage in China is becoming bigger and bigger, many factories have been forced to cut their expansion plans because they can't recruit enough workers, and many factories have been forced to push off orders because of insufficient production capacity, and this situation is becoming more and more serious.

There are only two ways to alleviate the severe situation of labor shortage.

The first way is to kidnap the population, this Wang Pu is already in full swing preparations, the first object of action is the book, and the other way is to instruct the Academy of Military Sciences to study alternative machinery.

For example, spinning machines and looms in the silk and weaving industries, as long as the Academy of Military Sciences can develop high-efficiency machines, under the premise that labor has not increased, the production capacity of the factory will be greatly improved, and for example, train locomotives, once the Academy of Military Sciences successfully develops train locomotives, and then build a monorail between the mine and the smelter, it can greatly save the labor force for transporting ore, and the production efficiency of the smelter will be greatly improved.

These are visible benefits, and there are more invisible benefits, all in all, the industrial revolution in the Western world in the official history originally began with the two industries of spinning and weaving, when the mechanical revolution in Europe was spontaneous among the people, and in the Ming Dynasty in this world, the mechanical revolution was dominated and fully supported by the political axe, Wang Pu believes that its efficiency will only be higher, and the time to realize the industrial revolution will be shorter.

Sun Chuanting thought for a while, and suddenly said: "The Academy of Military Sciences is now busy improving the steam engine and ironclad ships, and it can't spare too much manpower and energy to develop alternative machinery. ”

"That's a good idea." Wang Pu nodded again and again, "I'll leave the matter of finding someone to John." ”

"Hmm." Qian Qianyi said, "John is now the cardinal of the Catholic Far East Diocese and the plenipotentiary ambassador of our Ming Empire to Europe, so it is only fitting that he should do this. ”

"That's it for now." Sun Chuanting nodded, and said to Qian Qianyi and Lu Daqi, "Let's go back to the cabinet and draw up a detailed plan according to the three key points of one center." ”

■■■

Seeing off Sun Chuanting and them, Wang Pu came straight to the Liu Qingyan Chamber.

As early as three years ago, Liu Qingyan began to spy on the intelligence, and the focus of the spy was Nagasaki Port, Osaka Port, and Edo Castle, Nagasaki Port and Osaka Port are the only two ports open to the outside world, and Edo is the political and military center of the Ayamoto, and the important surname is self-evident.

Hearing the sound of familiar footsteps, a flash of joy suddenly appeared on Liu Qingyan's white pink face.

Soon, a pair of strong arms wrapped around Liu Qingyan's slender waist from behind, and the scorching heat came from the palm of the man's hand, Liu Qingyan moaned comfortably, looked back at Wang Pu's face close at hand, and said with a smile: "Master, are you tired of eating house flowers and want to pick wild flowers?" ”

"Wildflowers?" Wang Pu said puzzledly, "What kind of wildflowers are you picking?" ”

Liu Qingyan smiled and said: "You are in a hurry to let the slave family help you collect the information of the book, isn't it just to conquer the book and taste the woman of the book?" ”

"You're wrong." Wang Pu's big hand was wanton and thin on Liu Qingyan's plump delicate body, and Yin said with a smile, "This time I sent troops to rob women, and I mainly robbed men." ”

"What?" Liu Qingyan was stunned and said, "Robbing a man? ”

Saying this, a trace of evil sweat suddenly flashed on Liu Qingyan's beautiful pink face, and he laughed, "Master, the slave family really didn't know that you still had this hobby, hehe." ”

Wang Pu naturally understood Liu Qingyan's words, so he pretended to be angry at that time, stopped her waist and hugged her delicate body and made her lie on the desk. See if I don't suck your ass. ”

"Hey, hey......" Liu Qingyan Xue Xue moaned, "Master, you can start lightly." ”

"What a scratching fox."

Wang Pu's hand couldn't help but be lighter, and finally turned into a gentle rub, and asked while rubbing, "How did the things that the master told you to do?" ”

Liu Qingyan shook the fat and warped **, and responded: "Most of them have been investigated." ”

Wang Pu's hands had already lifted the hem of Liu Qingyan's military uniform and asked, "Tell me." ”

Liu Qingyan stood on tiptoe, so that his flat lower abdomen was suspended, and the jade finger had already untied the military wide belt around his waist, and replied: "First of all, in terms of population, based on the intelligence of all aspects, it can be preliminarily concluded that the total population of this book is about fifteen million ......."

Wang Pu was stunned when he heard this, and said in a speech: "What did you say?" Fifteen million!? ”

This population figure was indeed a bit unexpected by Wang Pu, who thought that it would be great to have a population of 5 million, but he didn't expect that there would be 15 million! This population figure is almost one-tenth of the Ming Empire, and you must know that at that time, even the population of Britain was only 7 million.

"That's right." Liu Qingyan replied affirmatively, "At least fifteen million!" ”

"Grandma's, it's here."

Wang Pu used both hands to pull off Liu Qingyan's trousers along with the obscene pants, and Liu Qingyan's two snow-white buttocks were presented in front of Wang Pu's eyes, Wang Puyin laughed twice and squatted down after Liu Qingyan's sound, his head leaned forward, and his whole face had been squeezed into Liu Qingyan's deep ravine, and at the same time, the hot tongue had licked the woman's sensitive stamen.

Liu Qingyan's head tilted back sharply, and Sakura's lips opened slightly, and she began to moan unbearably.

Wang Pu asked vaguely while licking, "What about the population distribution?" ”

Liu Qingyan replied breathlessly: "Its population is mainly concentrated in the central and western parts of Honshu Island, the Kanto Plain is the most densely populated, and Edo, where the shogunate is located, is the largest city in this city, with a total population of at least 500,000 or more, even if it is our Ming Empire, only Nanjing, Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Hangzhou have more population than Edo." ”

"Edo? Isn't that Tokyo!? ”

Wang Pu suddenly raised his head from the woman's deep ravine, a wisp of crystal clear body fluids flowed down his nose, Liu Qingyan ate and laughed twice, turned around and squatted down in front of Wang Pu, the crimson cherry lips opened slightly, sucked the crystal clear body fluids into his mouth, and finally licked his lips unsatisfied.

"Grandma's." Wang Pu hurriedly untied his leash and said, "Edo has a population of 500,000, and now you can play back to the Tokyo Massacre, hum!" ”

"The Tokyo Massacre?" Liu Qingyan pointed at Qingshu and unbuttoned Wang Pu's trousers, and asked in a flattering voice, "Didn't the prince want to kidnap the population, why did he want to kill the person in Edo Castle?" ”

"You don't know, ...... hiss"

Wang Pu took off his pants with the help of Liu Qingyan, and as soon as his waist and abdomen were sent forward, the words poked into Liu Qingyan's cherry mouth, and the woman's hot and humid mouth and dexterous tongue wrapped Wang Pu's brother tightly in an instant, and the bone-eroding ** tide struck, Wang Pu couldn't help but shiver excitedly, and moaned extremely comfortably.

Wang Pu gasped while enjoying Liu Qingyan's tongue service: "It is said that there are fifteen million people, this is not a joke, if the Tokugawa family is ruthless and issues a general mobilization order, wouldn't it be possible to recruit four or five million strong men?" That's four or five million strong men, and even an unarmed farmer is enough for us to drink a pot. ”

Liu Qingyan spit out Wang Pu's words from his small mouth, and while stroking with his little hands, he glanced up with beautiful eyes, and asked flatteringly: "So what?" ”

Wang Pu said in a loud voice: "I am a very perverted people, if your strength is stronger than him, he will be more obedient than a dog, if your strength is not as good as his, he will become more ferocious than a wolf, so it is necessary for us to have a Tokyo massacre in Edo, kill me to be afraid, kill my own frightened, so that four or five million strong men will become four or five million tame sheep to be slaughtered, instead of four or five million ferocious wolves." ”
