Chapter 1086: Pre-War Arrangements

Xiong Jiahui was obviously not satisfied with this answer, and asked, "Why is that?" Yi'an Niangniang actually likes the emperor too, we can all see it. If the emperor keeps his mother in the palace, he will one day be able to influence his mother. Now the Ming Dynasty is allowed to remarry, let alone Niangniang, since Niangniang can marry a woman of different races, why can't she marry the emperor? ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, gently touched Xiong Jiahui's head, and smelled the fragrance on the top of Xiong Jiahui's head, "No, the past can't come back, there are not many things in life that can start over, if I can go back to the age of thirteen, I must think of changing this qiē, but now, it's too late to say anything." Are you satisfied with this answer? ”

Xiong Jiahui was sniffed by the emperor on the top of his head, his face was slightly red, and he shook his head gently, "Not satisfied, for the emperor, the women in the world can take whatever they want, but there is only one Yi'an Niangniang, and people can't turn back, there is no afterlife, you don't know anything after this life, why wait for the next life?" ”

Zhu Youzhen is very curious about Xiong Jiahui's point of view, this is a point of view that is out of this era, although he knows that Xiong Jiahui is similar to Zheng Yuelin, and has many ideas out of this era, but Zheng Yuelin is a rare smart in the world, Xiong Jiahui is definitely not as smart as Zheng Yuelin, but her thinking mode is very close to Zheng Yuelin, this is where Zhu Youzhen has always admired this little girl.

"What do you do if you meet someone you like, and that person doesn't want to be with you for some reason? To force her? Zhu Yu left this problem to the little girl, and the world loves to say right and wrong. But no one will take the initiative to stand in the other person's position to find a way for others.

Xiong Jiahui understands a little. "I know that the emperor's analogy is talking about yourself and the Empress Yi'an. But if I am the emperor, I will issue an edict first, who would dare not accept the holy decree? The royal lady is afraid of the discussion of the people of the world, this is external, isn't she afraid of violating the holy decree is also external, is it that if she violates the holy decree, no one will talk about it? ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen nodded, "But." In that case, she will be in a dilemma, do you want me to be the one who persecuted her? To love someone is to cooperate with that person's ideas and make people free and comfortable, this is love, not to impose one's own will on others and make others uncomfortable, understand? ”

Xiong Jiahui still shook his head, "Of course, imposing it will be uncomfortable at the time. If you don't impose it, you may never be comfortable, depending on whether the psychology of the person being imposed is really in love. If you really love, why can't you help her gain courage in an imposed way. ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen was slightly stunned, although Xiong Jiahui said these words, he has thought about it many times, it is always easy for a person to point fingers at other people's things, and it is not like that, but these words came out of the mouth of a thirteen-year-old girl, and it was inevitable that people would be shocked.

Zhu Youzhen did not continue this topic, but came to the upper study of the Central Council, his world is still based on work, he is a person who is not qualified to rest, and the workload of Chongzhen in the eleven years has not decreased much compared with previous years.

Since the establishment of the monetary system, it has been of great help to the economy of the Ming Dynasty, but this help is only a medium bridge, not that printing money indiscriminately can make the economy develop rapidly.

There is a big difference between the economic reform of the Ming Dynasty and the natural formation process of the capitalist state after hundreds of years of germination and industrial revolution!

The industrial revolution in Europe was formed by the people, from the bottom up, and foreign expansion was a demand of the whole society, and the economic revolution and industrial revolution promoted by Zhu Youzhen with the imperial party as the core and the imperial enterprises as the main body all came from himself, from the top of the Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that the economy of the Ming Dynasty is created by the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, to put it mildly, this is a deformed development process, and even deformed to the point of violating any natural laws, whether it is the social changes implemented by those monarchs who are head-on after the First World War, or the overall implementation of the number of changes in some modern countries, they have never been separated from the public, at least more than half of the social groups hope that the society will develop in a certain direction, not as the Ming Dynasty is now, It was Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen who was pulling the whole country and running.

What's even more terrifying is that the current development speed of Daming is running, not walking, even if Zhu Youzhen wants to slow down, it is impossible, he knew that it would become the current speed, Zhu Youzhen would like to be slower and more stable in the process of reform at the beginning.

Military expansion is a terrible process, and if you don't get it right, you will swallow all the fruits of your labor in one gulp, and there will be no dregs left.

Chongzhen's GDP for three years is minus 47 million yuan, and when it comes to Chongzhen's four years, it becomes minus 63 million yuan, and then Chongzhen's minus 74 million yuan for five years, Chongzhen's minus 89 million yuan for six years, Chongzhen's minus 99 million yuan for seven years, Chongzhen's minus 129 million yuan for eight years, and Chongzhen's minus 139 million yuan for nine years, until last year, Chongzhen's minus 214 million yuan for ten years, and the GDP is decreasing year by year, not that the society is regressing in his hands. On the contrary, because the foundation of the country cannot keep up with the speed of social development, the current situation will occur, even if the export of opium to Europe is increased, and a large amount of gold and silver is inflowed, it will not help the GDP much.

The current situation of the Ming Dynasty is to increase the negative GDP year by year, and the price of goods is rising sharply, and in the case of natural disasters becoming more and more serious, the funds that should have been put into improving the lives of the people have been used for infrastructure construction and national defense and military industry, resulting in this year of the eleventh year of Chongzhen, the lives of the people have doubled compared to the first year of Chongzhen, and the things of starving to death still occur from time to time, just because a large number of people have moved eastward, all of which are concentrated in the coastal areas. Foreign wars have always been able to produce food to feed the army, so that there has been no larger-scale civil revolt.

But under the strong crossbow, the bowstring will be broken, and you can't always use high-pressure policies to the people. This simple and basic truth, Zhu Youzhen naturally understands.

Wang Chengen got the emperor's summons and hurried over. Even the emperor's temperament is becoming more and more calm now. And Wang Chengen's fear of the emperor is also increasing day by day. The current emperor, who had not lost his temper for a long time and had not spoken loudly, was even more stressful than the emperor a few years ago who could not bear his temper and sometimes had to roar.

"Your Majesty? Are you going out of the palace? Wang Chengen asked after saluting the emperor.

Zhu Youzhen nodded, "Big companion, I'm going to go out, and if I don't solve that Huang Taiji, I feel uncomfortable." Now the biggest hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty is only this Huang Taiji. ”

In fact, in Wang Chengen's heart, Huang Taiji is not a hidden danger for a long time, everyone has been driven out thousands of miles away, and it is impossible to even cross Siberia again, they have all been driven to Russia, what are the hidden dangers? But since the emperor is not at ease, it is difficult to say anything, "Then the emperor still wants to go to Japan first?" Want to personally preside over the wedding of Xingzi and Yi'an Niangniang? ”

Zhu Youzhen had a cold face, "No, I just asked Xu Guowei to send a decree that he would go to the Northeast to inspect within a month. Tomorrow, let people escort the Japanese Emperor and Empress Yi'an to Japan, and let Hong Chengchou issue military orders. He ordered the entire Japanese island nation to retreat to Kitakyushu, south of Kyoto, within ten days, otherwise they would be killed if they saw anyone, regardless of the reason. A telegram was sent to Sun Chuanting, and the Northeast Army rested in Heilongjiang to help restore agriculture in Northeast China. But I didn't say where I was going first, on the surface I was going to Japan secretly, but in fact I was going to Tohoku secretly, you can arrange it. ”

Wang Chengen nodded, I don't know why, a chill came to his heart, the emperor is more and more fond of playing tricks, even if he is playing these tricks with his personal companion Xu Guowei and his close ministers in the palace, but this is nothing, the emperor's exit from the palace is the biggest secret, and where he wants to go is even more important, "The old slave knows, and immediately let Gao Dewei prepare." ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded, "I asked you to prepare for the Daming National Securities Company, how are you preparing?" ”

Wang Chengen's sweat came out all of a sudden, "Your Majesty, it's not that the old slave has forgotten, I've been urging the following, but the information given by the emperor is too profound, and those economists at Tianjin University have just started, and everyone doesn't understand it very well, and the personnel structure and framework have been decided." ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, "Thanks to the fact that they can read and understand those books, to be honest, I don't understand it very well, but it is difficult at the beginning, I have thought about it again and again, now the Ming Dynasty is being pulled by me alone, this is not good, the power of the whole society must be mobilized, especially those chaebols in the south of the Yangtze River, they will not move, they will never be able to cope with the situation of financial losses, the GDP will grow negatively, and there will be no big mess when the Ming Dynasty continues to grow, However, once there is a defeat that can affect the domestic situation, the whole country will be paralyzed, and even the people everywhere will rebel, which is predictable. ”

Wang Chengen responded, "Yes, the emperor's concern is good, this only happens in this dynasty, I have never heard of the fact that the treasury is in deficit with a large amount of wealth, and the country is growing rapidly, this is all suppressed by the emperor's dragon power, and I really have to think of countermeasures in advance." ”

"To let the entire Ming Dynasty's upper economy and middle and lower economy together, the country to complete the orderly development, as soon as Qiē will slowly get on the track, and trade with Europe, I estimate that it will soon break down, Europeans are not stupid, will not always give resources to the Ming Dynasty in vain, once this line is cracked, the Ming Dynasty is now a disaster and there will be a huge crisis!" Zhu Youzhen leaned on the dragon chair and calmly analyzed.

Wang Chengen was taken aback, and hurriedly took out a secret recital, "Your Majesty, it's not that the old slave is delaying, just now the emperor was talking to the old slave, and the old slave hasn't come before he can submit it, Zou Weilian called, Europe's trade has been completely cut off, Britain and the Netherlands are taking the lead, and Europe relies on the agreement reached by the seventeen countries in Asia and Africa, and unanimously resists the Ming trade." Merchant ships of the Seventeen Nations were not allowed to cross the Indian Peninsula, and the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty were also not allowed to cross the Indian Peninsula. ”

Zhu Youzhen was shocked, although he did not lose his temper, but he was very nervous in his heart, the domestic economy is growing in negative growth, and the European line, which is not an exaggeration, has temporarily become the lifeline of La Daming, especially in the past two years, calming down Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong's army, driving away the Manchurians, this line has played a great role, once it is broken, Daming can avoid this level? The stock market is not just to be able to get up, the Ming Dynasty is now even the medical security system and the pension system is not perfect, the bank does not play a role in supporting the economic system, the south of the Ming Dynasty is still the majority of the people are still using the silver two, these are not tough measures to solve the problem, people die for money, birds die for food, this is a problem that needs to be solved by economic means rather than military means.

If you kill all the people, what else does the emperor do?

Zhu Youzhen rubbed his eyes, "How is the supply of the army?" ”

Wang Chengen saw that the emperor was anxious, and he was even more anxious, and hurriedly said, "The Ming Dynasty currently has more than 800,000 troops, 200,000 in Japan, 300,000 in the Northeast, and 50,000 troops along the Indian Peninsula. ”

Zhu Youzhen was furious, "Confused, didn't I tell you?" Don't you understand the simple reason that you should consider additional issuance when the currency is not enough? Are you trying to force everyone to turn around and use gold and silver as currency? ”

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Wang Chengen hurriedly knelt down and said, "The old slave is confused, and the emperor is angry." ”

Zhu Youzhen sighed, "Flat!" The things in the south are not taken care of for the time being, now it depends on how long it will take for the economic system to be perfected, the bank is the center, the bank, the bank, it has not played a role in dominating the country's economic trend for nine years, or it is that I am incompetent, my court is incompetent! ”

Wang Chengen said boldly, "Your Majesty, why don't you put aside the war on the northern front first?" The army of Tuntian rested and withdrew all the Japanese troops to the northeast? ”

Zhu Youzhen was furious, stood up angrily, forcibly did not say swearing, pressed his throat and said, "If this matter is mentioned again, it will not be forgiven!" As my close retainer, do I talk to you every day in vain? You are really not as good as Cao Huachun, in the future, you will discuss your affairs with Cao Huachun more, and go down. ”

Wang Chengen was so frightened that he kowtowed a few times, knowing that whenever the emperor let him go down, he was very angry, for fear that he would kill someone if he didn't leave, so he quit in panic. (To be continued......)
