If you want to conquer the countries of Indochina, you will need a strong navy. Although Indochina and China are connected by land, land transportation in these years was not as convenient as sea transportation. At that time, whether it is the dispatch of personnel or the transportation of food, it will be necessary to take the sea route after all.

In the era before the internal combustion engine, maritime traffic and plunder were the mainstream of the world. Only after the advent of the internal combustion engine can continental countries give full play to the advantages of their vast territory and give birth to superpowers.

The main thing is also the problem of world traffic.

In this era, the means of transportation were nothing more than horse-drawn carriages and boats, and the cost of transportation by ships was significantly lower. Therefore, the development of the navy is the mainstream of the future.

Whether a country is strong or not is mainly reflected by its navy.

In the spring of the third year of the Apocalypse, the Royal Trading Company's Royal Trading Company opened branches in Mongolia, Tibet, Korea, Ryukyu, and Taiwan, and began to monopolize the trade of goods with these regions.

Mongolia and Tibet, of course, needless to say. As a result of the severe crackdown on smugglers, coupled with the continuous strict prevention of the garrison mixed brigades, the smuggling trade has been silenced, and even if there are some smuggling activities, the scale is not large.

In the winter of the second year of the Apocalypse, the Mongols had a much better time in the winter because of the large-scale expansion of bilateral trade. All kinds of commodities were abundant, and the affected Mongolian tribes also had food reserves, and they also received a batch of food aid from the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the Mongols did not harass and plunder the Ming border after the beginning of spring.

The prestige of the Mongol Lin Dan Khan among the tribes has increased a lot. The main thing was that Lin Dan Khan was able to lead those Mongol nobles to make a fortune and obtain enough luxuries for them to enjoy.

Because the price of goods in Daming is relatively fair, the demand for fur and other goods is also large. So the Mongolian nobles were in the spring after the beginning of spring. Many have increased the scale of horse breeding. and the scale of sheep breeding, which changed the economic model of self-sufficiency of many Mongolian tribes in the past, and moved closer to the direction of commodity economy.

Such a commodity economy was naturally very advantageous for the Mongolian aristocracy. However, it has widened the gap between the rich and the poor in Mongolia, and the contrast between the rich and the poor has become more obvious. Moreover, a large number of luxuries made the barbaric will of the Mongolian nobles be worn down to a certain extent.

Because the two sides were allies at this time, coupled with such trade, the bilateral relationship improved. After the beginning of spring in the third year of the Apocalypse, the first batch of Mongolian nobles had already entered the country. Go to Beijing and settle down.

Obviously, these Mongolian nobles were also allowed by Lin Dan Khan, and they also had the meaning of temptation.

"A dozen Mongolian nobles came? Good! Take them to have a good time in the capital and experience the place where my Daming food and clothing gather. When Zhu Youxiao heard the report, he immediately instructed the following.

This is like the Yankees in later generations had a great attraction to the rich people of all countries in the world, and the Ming Dynasty in this era, as the most civilized country in the world, had a much higher standard of living than Europe, and was obviously very attractive to the Mongols.

Clothing, food, housing, transportation, as well as various operas, acrobatics, dances, as well as the red light district of the capital and so on. will have a huge attraction for those of different races. Daming is a paradise for the rich, and the first Mongolian nobles came. There will definitely be a second batch, a third batch.

As long as it became fashionable for Mongolian nobles to come to settle in the Ming Dynasty, Mongolia would gradually become a subsidiary of the Ming Dynasty.

"And education, health care, and things that appeal to the alien upper class, and it's time for some revitalization." Zhu Youxiao thought to himself.

Soon Zhu Youxiao ordered the rectification of the Tai Hospital, and issued a notice throughout the country to recruit people with superb medical skills, as long as the medical skills are excellent, they can get official positions in the Tai Hospital.

He also ordered the hospital to recruit students and teach, and selected a group of talented apprentices from all over the country to study medicine in the hospital.

Traditional Chinese medicine in the Ming Dynasty has begun to show a trend towards decline, mainly due to the development of the commodity economy, which makes people not have so much mind to study medicine. Therefore, many people choose to take a shortcut to learn the simplified Eight Outlines of Dialectic, but there are fewer and fewer people who learn the Six Classics of Dialectic.

Since folk medical practitioners began to generally learn the Eight Principles of Syndrome Differentiation, then the official training of physicians who learned the Six Classics of Syndrome Differentiation.

As long as the scale is large enough, and industry standards are formulated, and perseverance, the revitalization of traditional Chinese medicine is not a dream.

Those literati who failed to pass the imperial examination went to study medicine, and they were unwilling to learn the dialectic of the Six Classics, because it took too long for the dialectical dialectic, and they had to make money to make a living.

Then the imperial court paid for subsidies to solve the problem of subsistence for Chinese medicine apprentices. Or train from an early age and recruit a group of young apprentices, and the problem will be solved.

The other is to improve the social status of medical practitioners, as long as the medical skills are excellent, they can get an official position in the Tai Hospital, receive a salary, and the social status will naturally go up.

The prescription of the Tai Hospital, these are the four major jokes in the capital, which shows what the state of the Tai Hospital was like before. This rectification of the Tai Hospital will also eliminate those medical officers who have a false name.

At the same time, every three months, a traditional Chinese medicine examination is held in the capital, and traditional Chinese medicine practitioners from all over the country can come to take the examination, and those who pass the examination can obtain the official position of Tai Hospital.

The salary of Tai Hospital has also been greatly improved by Zhu Youxiao, so that these doctors can study academics and teach with peace of mind.

The Ming Dynasty Tai Hospital also has a function, that is, to treat soldiers and poor people, and all medicine is free.

At the same time, Zhu Youxiao also opened the outpatient department of Tai Hospital, which was operated as a hospital for later generations, but the consultation fee was relatively high. Soldiers and low-income households can receive medical treatment free of charge.

In the future, Tai Hospital can also open hospitals in other cities, and all the medicinal materials of Tai Hospital are supplied by the Royal Commercial Bank, and the profit of the hospital is mainly the consultation fee, and the price of drugs is like that, which is not high.

Traditional Chinese medicine is definitely not a profiteering industry, which is why it is so unpopular and not recognized by Westerners in later generations. It is because Chinese medicine uses natural medicinal materials, once Chinese medicine is recognized, patients go to see Chinese medicine, how to sell profitable Western medicine?

After all, the price of traditional Chinese medicine often depends on whether it is scarce or not, not on who makes it. After all, Chinese medicine is a kind of medicine that is difficult to get started, and people do not need to rely on any equipment in the hospital. It's too bad to be exploited, it's a big deal to leave. Start your own business and open a medical center.

Therefore, the imperial court asked the hospital to open an outpatient department. It is not for profit. One is to let the doctors of Tai Hospital earn some outpatient fees. The second is to provide free medical treatment and medicine to soldiers and poor people, and do a good job in social security.

In terms of education, Zhu Youxiao set up a normal college to train Mongolian teachers, and the Mongolian teaching materials still use classic textbooks such as the Three Character Classic and the Thousand Character Text, but they add pinyin, punctuation and other things. At the same time, mathematics textbooks are added to Mongolian studies.

Medical care, education, after some planning. At the same time, health and epidemic prevention will be strengthened in the capital, and a certain amount of greening will be carried out.

With these measures, the attractiveness of the Ming Dynasty to the outside world can be greatly enhanced. People are afraid of death and want better medical care. I also want my children to enjoy a better education, and I want to live in a better environment.

When those Mongolian nobles came to the capital, they really didn't want to leave. I have never seen such a heavenly place at all, and there are so many tricks to enjoy.

Under the warm hospitality of the Ming Dynasty, these Mongolian nobles finally left and went back to Lin Dan Khan to return to their lives. Apparently, Lin Dan Khan had not yet officially allowed other Mongol nobles to settle in the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Dan Khan was not stupid, he knew that once the Mongol nobles settled in large numbers in Daming. These Mongol nobles were likely to be co-opted by the Ming Dynasty.

After these Mongol nobles returned to Mongolia, Lin Dan Khan immediately ordered that the Mongol nobles should not be allowed to settle in the Ming Dynasty. But Zhu Youxiao was not in a hurry. Lin Dan Khan can be banned for a while, but there is still no way to do it for a long time.

The Royal Firm's trading houses in Taiwan and the Ryukyus were able to do business smoothly, but the trade in the Ryukyus was relatively small, except for some fishing goods, and the firms mainly supplied supplies to the sailors.

Taiwan's production of deerskins, timber, and spices is gradually increasing, the number of workers recruited from Fujian is also growing rapidly, and large areas of sugar cane plantations and rice fields are being opened.

However, the establishment of the trading house in Korea did not go very smoothly, because there was a palace coup in Korea in the third year of the Apocalypse.

After a palace coup, the king of Korea, Gwanghaejun Li Hui, was dragged off the throne by his nephew Ayayangjun Yi Jun, and the Joseon Dynasty changed its emperor overnight.

Yuan Keli, who was sitting in Denglai, received the news and was shocked, and hurriedly reported the news to the emperor.

After Zhu Youxiao received the news, he was a little gloating.

"This is dead? Hey~! Zhu Youxiao chuckled, Li Hui, a bastard, had been eye-to-eyed with Jiannu before, and Daming sent him a holy decree, always prevaricating for various reasons, and finally simply locked Daming's envoy outside the palace gate and disappeared.

"Your Majesty, the coup d'état in North Korea really cannot be taken lightly, North Korea, as our Ming vassal state, has undergone such a terrible change, and my Ming Dynasty should intervene."

"Your Majesty, the king of North Korea, Li Hui, was killed in the palace, and this North Korea is really a bit of a miasma. The Li Liang who seized power and usurped the throne is really a chaotic minister and thief, and he should not be spared. ”

A group of courtiers in the court accused this rebellion.

Korean culture is no different from the Ming Dynasty, it is almost a copy of the template of the past, as a 'Little China', there is such a thing as a palace coup, which is really unacceptable to these courtiers of the Ming Dynasty.

In contrast, Zhu You's proofreading of the news was naturally applauded. It's just that seeing the attitude of a group of courtiers, he quickly restrained his smile, coughed twice, and then said in an official tone: "This Li Liang is indeed hateful, and I will never spare it." Spread my will, and ordered the general army of Dongjiang Town to immediately send troops to North Korea to arrest the thief Li Liang and wait for his fate. ”

A group of courtiers were stunned, looking at each other and listening to the emperor's decisive will.

"Your Majesty, isn't it too ...... Too sloppy? The strength of the Dongjiang Army is only 30,000 ......," Gu Bingqian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said to Zhu Youxiao.

"Thirty thousand is enough!" Zhu Youxiao interrupted Gu Bingqian's exhortation, and then asked the ministers, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any objections?" ”

"Your Majesty." All the ministers bowed down and recited in unison, and there was indeed nothing to say about the emperor's handling of such a method. The suppression of rebellious ministers and thieves is completely justified in their opinion, after all, the king of Joseon was canonized and recognized by the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao doesn't care whether the new North Korean king Li Ju is legitimate or not, and first teaches North Korea a lesson, Zhu Youxiao's actual purpose is just to control North Korea. (To be continued......)
