Chapter 707: Rough Moves

This question is very strict.!

Not to mention that the trade of the Japanese state accounted for nearly 10% of the weight of the sea pacification envoys, nor the value of the destroyed goods destroyed by the Japanese state, the sea route pacification made the division wealthy, and this loss was completely bearable.

The most important thing is that once the Japanese state is successfully closed, and the sea route pacification envoy gives up the entire Japanese country, then next, other countries feel that they have suffered a loss, and they follow suit, and everyone adopts a closed policy, and even uses the country as a threat, what should I do?

In fact, a little loss is not terrible, what is terrible is that once it is let go, it will form an avalanche-like ending.

In the official document of the governor of Zhejiang, the matter was very strict, because the trade volume of Zhejiang was getting bigger and bigger, so the merchants had already begun to expand production without restraint, and new workshops were set up one by one, and countless people were recruited from the countryside to the city, taking cloth as an example, five years ago, the output of cloth was only 200,000 horses, which of course only counted the output of the workshop, most of the time, many cloths were produced in the self-sufficient small peasant economy of the farmers, and they weaved their own cloth. This is a tradition for thousands of years, and now, due to the small peasant economy in Zhejiang has been broken, self-sufficiency is no longer possible, fortunately, the former farmers have been transformed into hired laborers, so there is some surplus money in their hands, the demand for cloth naturally increases, at the same time, the sea route to pacify the continuous expansion of the trade, the demand is naturally getting bigger and bigger, in this case, the output of cloth has been as high as more than 39 million horses.

The so-called New Deal, in fact, is to use demand to drive production, demand is divided into two types, internal demand relies on the prosperity of the industry, and external demand relies on dumping.

But now, once the island is closed to the country, then the problem will emerge, and some of the demand will disappear, which will inevitably lead to the difficulty of many workshops, once the workshop is difficult, there will be people who have been laid off, people who have been laid off, and those who have lost their livelihoods, and there will be no monthly money, and without monthly money, they will not be able to buy all kinds of necessities for clothing, food, housing and transportation, and finally the business of the shop will also be affected, if the shop is laying off employees at this time, then the consumer population in the market will only become smaller and smaller. In addition, there are goods to be transported, it is necessary to rely on the carriage and horse to deliver the goods to Ningbo Port, and it is also necessary to hire foot force to carry the goods to the sea, it can be said that nearly one percent of the foreign trade has decreased, affecting all aspects, and the direct unemployment of the population is enough to raise more than 10,000 people, not to mention some indirect impacts.

However・・・・・・ even if there is a loss of 10% of the trade, Zhizhejiang can still afford it, after all, the New Deal is a process from scratch to abundance, and in this process, all kinds of needs are released, which is enough to cover up the loss of trade between the Japanese and the Japanese state, and this is a prosperous era, and it is impossible to break the bones because of the loss of the Japanese trade.

But what people are worried about is emulation, so what if everyone follows suit? You can ignore the Japanese country, then the same will be true of North Korea tomorrow, are you still sitting idly by, after North Korea is locked down, Jinla, Annam and other countries are also like this?

If the loss of a Japanese country is harmless, but it can't be an example to kill chickens and monkeys, then it is only a matter of time before the muscles and bones are broken.

Xu Qian took the official document and felt quite hot, and the opinion of the governor of Zhejiang, Yamen, was actually revenge, in the name of the Japanese state's refusal to trade, to teach the Japanese a lesson, not only to force the Japanese to open the country, but on the other hand, to make an example of a hundred people.

The reason why the governor of Zhejiang, Yamen, did not write a book, but he just wanted to discuss with Xu Qian first, how to say that the court would use force.

Xu Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly, such a reason for the imperial court to issue an order to mobilize troops is simply a joke, and it is absolutely impossible for the imperial court to start a war lightly.

This is actually a problem of different interests, for emerging interest groups, in order to seek greater benefits, they must ensure that their goods can be unimpeded, if someone obstructs, it is to block their financial route, cut off people's financial road is like killing parents, not with you to fight that is strange.

However, for the traditional landlord class, once the force is used, the imperial court will have to recruit a large number of people, and there will be heavier forced labor, although the forced labor will not fall on their heads, but a large number of young and strong people will be requisitioned by the imperial court, who will cultivate their fields? Again, the imperial court mobilizes troops, always has to apportion all kinds of money, the landlords are more or less, they have to cut so much meat, even if you win, you can't go to the Japanese country to be a landlord, the most fertile land in the world, are already in this central country, occupied by the Heavenly Empire, everyone is not stupid, for the landlords, there is only a disadvantage, there is no benefit, the only benefit, is nothing more than in exchange for a very unaffordable demonstration of martial arts, get cheap, only the Son of Heaven, but for them, it is simply a nightmare.

Although the landlords were not officials, they could not help but have connections in the court.

Among the officials of the imperial court, almost everyone is a landlord, even if there is no high school before, maybe just a poor study', but once you become an official, are you afraid that you will not have land? So the officials have some kind of meaning! Righteousness means that the natural landlord class, their thinking, their ideas, and the interests they defend are naturally completely biased towards safeguarding their own interests.

In later generations, there were always people who made a lot of nonsense, saying why the ancestors were unwilling to expand, why the territory of the Ming Dynasty did not change from the Qin and Han dynasties, and then came to the so-called conclusion, which is nothing more than saying that the ancestors had no blood. The real reason is nothing more than that for a feudal empire, what the empire needs is the most fertile land, as for the barren countryside, or those thousands of miles of uninhabited grasslands, for the dynasty, not only can not produce benefits, but a heavy burden, a qiΔ“ human activities, are all about the trade-off of interests, when the mainstream of this dynasty believes that waging war has all kinds of harm and no benefit, everyone's voice against conquest is naturally enough to affect the national policy of the entire dynasty.

The reason why Xu Qian smiled bitterly was because the landlords in the court still occupied the majority, and it was absolutely impossible for them to agree to use force at will because of the lockdown of the Japanese state.

However, the governor of Zhejiang, Yamen, made it very clear that if he did not use force, the emerging interest groups would be infringed upon, so what should he do?

After thinking about it, Xu Qian picked up the pen and wrote a letter, which was only a few words, telling the governor of Zhejiang, this is a trivial matter, since it is a trivial matter, then you can judge yourself.

At this moment, someone came to visit, and the person who came was Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng obviously also received the news, and came to Xu Qian to discuss it as soon as possible.

"Hmph, how can this be reasonable, how can it be true, the goods of the sea route pacification envoy are all purchased by Ruyifang, and the loss is also borne by the pacification envoy and Ruyifang, lord, what do you say now? This time Ruyifang has suffered a heavy loss, there are hundreds of thousands of silver, is it just like that, it must not be counted, usually only we deceive people, how can anyone dare to deceive us, this matter, what do you think? ”

Xu Qian drank tea with a smile and waited patiently for Wang Cheng's complaints.

Wang Cheng was indeed so angry that he stomped his feet and suffered heavy losses, although hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are not many people like him, but he is not happy to do business, only in and out.

Xu Qian said lightly: "You calm your anger first, discuss something well, what are you doing with such a big anger?" ”

Wang Cheng had no choice but to sit down patiently, leaned forward slightly, and said: "That's not how things are done, what do you have in mind, if you don't teach you a hard lesson, these monkeys don't know how thick the sky is." ”

Xu Qian muttered: "If you want the imperial court to mobilize troops, it is naturally impossible, it is not enough, and it is not without a way, then keep a low profile and let the governor of Zhejiang, Yamen, make his own decision."

"Make up your own mind?" Wang Cheng was slightly stunned.

Xu Qian said: "Isn't the Sea Route Pacification Envoy responsible for pacifying the countries? On the one hand, it is necessary to exterminate the Japanese invaders, and on the other hand, it is necessary to recruit the unsubordinate, in fact, as long as the perpetrators are regarded as the Japanese invaders. ”

"This ・・・・・・" Wang Cheng patted his thigh, and immediately understood something, and said: "I understand what you mean, the names of those Japanese people must be cleaned up one by one, and they don't need an edict from the imperial court, just say that they are Japanese criminals." ”

Xu Qian said: "Originally, it was a Japanese coward, who seized our goods and burned them, and attacked our merchant ships. So let the governor of Zhejiang, Yamen, do it himself. ”

"I'm afraid that the envoys will make trouble." Wang Cheng is not without worries, everyone is not stupid, if you use this method, people will not be able to see it?

Xu Qian smiled: "Then make trouble, they can't prove that this is not a wolf, there is no evidence, if they are happy, let them go to the country to collect evidence, as long as there is no evidence, bite the matter to death, what can it do?" At most, it's just a confused account, many things, since they can't do it openly, then take other roads, there will always be a way to go, as for those losses, then there will be no compensation for the Japanese state, the top priority at the moment is how to see the Zhizhejiang side, whether they have the determination to use force without the support of the imperial court, even if they make up their minds, can they win in one drum, but these, the official can't take care of it, let them go. ”

Regarding Xu Qian's laissez-faire attitude, Wang Cheng only smiled bitterly and said: "Anyway, listen to you, you can do whatever you say, yes, the affairs in the palace, you have to have a snack, I have heard a lot of news, within three months, there will be changes." ”

Xu Qian nodded at Wang Cheng, who understood his heart.

The second chapter is delivered, asking for a monthly pass.
