"Emphasizing the market and ignoring the righteousness, the people do not do it."

The thousand-year-old inheritance of the Qi State is not something that can be completely wiped out and annihilated by a major change. The Jixia School Palace, which was not affected by the disaster of the war, dozens of hundreds of famous Qilu 'masters' and 'scholars' took a resolute opposition to Zhu Biao's practice of 'pulling out the industry and commerce, and leveling the farmers' at the beginning of the founding of the country.

These people represent the thousand-year-old tradition of the Qi country, represent the interests of the old class of the Qi country, and they have a sacred position in the hearts of the people like the literati of the old Chinese society on the earth, and control the 'social opinion' to a certain extent.

Zhu Biao did not have a firm foothold in Qidi, so he hurriedly sent troops to the north, a whole set of foreign races, and analyzed all kinds of reasons in it, and there was no cause and effect of these masters. In the face of the counterattack of the old system of Qi State, Zhu Biao really had no great achievements to deal with, and he could only speak with great martial arts. With the dignity of the country, to wash away the shame in the hearts of the people, to fight against the master and the sect.

Facts have proved that Zhu Biao has crossed this hurdle.

The hundreds of 'scholars' hiding behind the master sect are definitely a force that no one can ignore. But when they fought back, they had already left their hometown, in a place in the southern Xinjiang of Qi that was still very unfamiliar, and more importantly, it was still one acre and three points of land belonging to their own family, and it didn't matter if Zhu Biao was put aside for a long time, and the impact on Qi Ting fluctuated, which was very small!

After that, the sentence 'The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit', Zhu Biao temporarily marked this matter with a sentence.

"Your Majesty, this is a new furnace made by imitation of the furnace tested by the great craftsmen. One furnace can fill 5,000 quintals of concentrate, and this capacity alone is more than the old furnace. He also innovated and created techniques, and obtained ten times the amount of work. It is really the most important weapon of the true country. ”

Zhu Biao's face is full of excitement and pride, and after years of hard work, he finally lived up to the king's trust and came up with results.

Ten times the effort!

Take it out and show it to the people of the world, it is enough to slap the mouths of those old things in the Jixia School Palace, and let the king be generous in his national policy!

Who dares to say that a 'craftsman' should be humbled?

Although he will be a master craftsman, he himself is a scholar of literature and ink with good roots. The name is a 'master craftsman', but he is not a craftsman, but the ass determines the head, and he will be a master craftsman, and his own interests will be integrated with the craftsman.

Originally, he was only one of the servants of Jiuqing, and he was a master craftsman, but now his position and function are comparable to Jiuqing, and he is comparable to Zhijin Wu and others. This is a qualitative improvement in terms of rank and real power, and it is a leap to the top. He didn't want to go back into the dirt from the clouds!

"Five thousand quintals!" That's 500,000 catties!

Zhu Biao stood under the blast furnace and calculated silently in his heart, one cubic meter of water is two thousand catties, the density of iron is more than eight times that of water, and the iron and stone must be lighter. Let's do it six times, so that it is 12,000 catties per cubic meter. 500,000 catties, only a small 40 cubic meters!

Compared with the converter in his previous life, it was too insignificant, too pediatric, and the fireflies compared to the sun and the moon, but this was already the biggest change he could make.

Zhu Biao is not an 'encyclopedia' character!

Meantime. This is also the irreparable material gap between the era of cold weapons and modern society.

"Qing's merits are a great contribution to the country. The lonely king is very relieved! ”

"It's just an important weapon of the country, not to be lightly visible, and the merits of the road are temporarily ...... And not to be heard of by the eyes and ears of the world. ”

"How dare a minister be greedy? It is enough to have the heart of the king. ”

What the master will say is not a lie or a lie. All the power of Qi is in the hands of Zhu Biao, Jane is in the heart of the emperor, what could be better and better than the words of the courtiers?

Credit cannot be given to the public. But as long as Zhu Biao sees it in his eyes, is there no compensation for him?

Time has entered the fifth year of the founding of the Zhu family, and the output of 570,000 quintals of pig iron, 200,000 quintals of wrought iron, and 50,000 quintals of refined iron has re-supported the backbone of Daqi. Although the world is within the framework of an agrarian society, steel is not the main pillar of national power. But it is definitely one of the important factors that constitute national strength, and this point is especially prominent during the war.

The abundance of iron also meant that the agricultural tools and armor were well-equipped, and a large area of cultivated land was incorporated into the national borders of the Qi State to the north. Under Zhu Biao's vigorous promotion of horse farming, the grain output of Qi has risen steadily, surpassing the original income earlier than the steel output, and injecting a bubbling blood spring into the Qi country, which has been greatly injured!

It is also since the seventeenth year of Yuanwu, a large amount of iron began to flow to the inland of the Central Plains every year. Of course, the trading object of Qi was the Tang King, and in the season when the war completely entered a stalemate and a confrontation with each other, this force was no less helpful than Zhu Biao's iron cavalry elite soldiers in the Tang King's camp.

At the beginning of the eighteenth year of Yuanwu, grain also joined the bulk trade of Qi to Tang.

The steady supply of grain and iron has injected a sweet spring into the military and civilians of northern Xinjiang, and naturally, a large amount of real money and silver has also been involved in Qi from northern Xinjiang at the same time, making the national strength of Qi and the industrial and commercial groups that are striding forward more vigorous!

In the 20th year of Yuanwu, not only the armor and ironware, grain and cloth weaving of Qidi, but also the flow of large stocks into northern Xinjiang, that is, on the sea surface of the coast of the East China Sea, the civilian ships and warships made in Qidi also appeared in an endless stream in the military and civilian array of the Tang Dynasty.

In the past five years, Zhu Biao has certainly been recovering and developing the national strength and people's strength of the Qi State, but the strong and invincible army of the Iron Cavalry has also been persistently advancing towards the eastern seashore. In doing so, one is to block the northward development of the Lu State in the future, but to seek an outlet to the sea.

Zhu Biao really realized the urgency of the Russians seeking sea exports in his previous life, the wealth of the sea, and the huge difference between sea and land transportation made Zhu Biao feel a sense of suffocation.

Fortunately, the strength of the Lu State has not recovered, the intertwining of royal power and vassals, and the misery and poverty of the people have made the people of Lu have no intention of taking a look at the north. When Zhu Biao's army marched more than 2,000 miles in three years, directly cutting off the border between the territory and the Lu State, the King of Lu even sent ministers to thank him.

This may be King Lu's last resort, so he came to paralyze Zhu Biao. If it is sincere, then Lu Guozhen has no future at all. The Lu royal family, who was beaten very much, almost lost the country, and overturned the temple, was no longer willing to look north again, and could only say that they were completely scared! Ambition and ambition were completely dispelled.

……

The time entered June of this year.

In an inconspicuous Binwan port in the northern district of the East China Sea, a five-masted ship slowly approached the bluestone-piled port. It was a sea ship from Ezo, and it traveled thousands of miles to carry a whole shipload of Ezo immigrants, which can also be said to be refugees.

Since the Central Plains War was completely triggered, Wu Yue and other countries in the southern corner have also fallen into the brink of war because of the changes in the Chu State, and the two countries and the two kings of Liang Ning have too much energy and strength to be involved in the war on the mainland. Another war between the Japanese and the Ezo broke out without half a second!

In any war, it is the ordinary people who hurt the most. The naval battles between the two countries and the fighting between the two countries have ruined countless Japanese and Ezo people, and their lives cannot continue. When a large number of young people from the two countries went into the waves of the sea, countless Ezo people and Japanese people who made a living by fishing, but now they are completely in a desperate situation, began to sell everything they had in their hometowns, and fled in groups to Wuyue, to the east of the Central Plains, to Qilu, and even to the east of the east now.

Zhu Biao did not let the refugees from the two countries really enter the land of Qi, but gathered them together and scattered them into countless squads to fill in the vast new land outside the territory.

And with the complete opening of Qi's road to the sea, Qi, which has an interface with the outside world, directly accepts refugees fleeing north from the two countries in extraterritorial ports under Zhu Biao's instructions. This news was naturally known to countless 'snake heads' for the first time, so there was this scene in front of me.

Nearly 500 refugees got off the port from the sea, because of the war, these 'bankrupt' Japanese Ezo people, the vast majority of them paid the last copper plate on their bodies for the cost of this trip, and more than eighty percent of the 500 refugees after disembarking were absolute proletarians, poorer than beggars.

Had it not been for the refugee camps set up in the harbor itself, the first day of their arrival on the mainland would have been spent in hunger, thirst and despair......
