Chapter 617: Then Come at Me
"You dare to do this, the laborers of Western Europe have saved Daming a lot of silver."
Zhu Houwei nodded very seriously and said: "Most of these Western Europeans who brought to Daming are just poor people in Western Europe, they are also not fed and clothed, and they have to endure the oppression from the aristocracy.
However, the greatest value of the existence of Western European laborers is not the saving of money, but the life! In today's era when there are no large machinery, many large projects can only be filled by manpower or even human life, and their casualties do not make me feel guilty. ”
"Working hard, depriving yourself of childbirth, and giving birth to a sense of belonging to Daming, brother, I sometimes really admire your methods."
"For most of the people in this world, in fact, they don't have any pursuit, and even the only pursuit is to live, to be able to feed their families, I gave them the right to live and even live a decent life, so these laborers will naturally pay their labor and even their lives, after all, there are countless people in today's Ming Dynasty who are extremely poor, what reason do I have to raise them in vain?"
"That's what you said." Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "But you used 400,000 crusader captives to destroy those small countries in the southeast, this matter can't be covered, I don't know how the people will arrange you in the future?"
"Brother Huang, do you look like we're afraid of the choreographer?"
Zhu Houwei sneered: "What's more, there are some costs that must be borne in the process of ethnic integration, if we don't even have this courage, we may only have a few territories in Henan and Shaanxi now, and after one or two hundred years, this southeast will be the inseparable territory of our Ming Dynasty forever, and the people in the southeast will only regard themselves as Chinese people."
Zhu Houzhao was thoughtful.
"Tell me a story with the royal brother......"
"You still tell stories?"
"Let's suppose." Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "Printing and compass were invented by our ancestors."
"It's not nonsense......"
"The Mid-Autumn Festival and Dragon Boat Festival are also our traditional Chinese festivals."
Zhu Houzhao was powerless to complain.
"Then I ask the imperial brother, if there is a country that has always preached that these things and festivals are theirs, and passed on this concept from generation to generation, so that the children and grandchildren of their people can accept this concept, and let their books record it clearly, then in a few hundred years, the future generations of this country will feel that these things and festivals are theirs or Chinese?"
Zhu Houzhao was dumbfounded and muttered: "Impossible, can there be such a shameless and shameless country in this world?"
"What if there is?"
"Send a large army and flatten!"
Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "Cultural plagiarism is just inferiority, not worth mentioning, but what if a country has committed a lot of war crimes, but it refuses to admit it, and keeps claiming that they have never had?" For example, the grassland peoples, they have been invading the Chinese Dynasty for thousands of years, but now that the grassland is no longer troubled, if these grassland people do not admit that they have invaded China, and educate their children and grandchildren to say that they do not, then what will happen to their children and grandchildren? ”
"I won't admit it, my heart can be punished!"
Zhu Houwei smiled bitterly: "But now to talk about it, now our Ming Dynasty is the warmongers, and it seems that we are the ones who have brought profound disasters to the world, but I will not deny it, nor will I advertise how high the war launched by the Ming Dynasty is, and I will face up to the history of colonization and even wars of aggression in history."
War is not terrible, what is terrible is slaughter, because only animals will slaughter people as animals, and even come up with countless kinds of inhumane methods to torture ordinary people, such a people should treat others in their own way, and directly carry out genocide. ”
"What are you talking about?" Zhu Houzhao said suspiciously: "You have said more than once in front of your brother how much you hate Japan, and you have also said that sooner or later you will launch a war of extermination against Japan, and now you are talking about Japan."
"Japan, the country of birds and beasts, within five years at the latest, I will personally lead a large army into Wajima, and kill all the Wa people on it!"
Zhu Houzhao said: "There are as many as 10 million people in the Japanese Kou country, if it is slaughtered, I am afraid it will really be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and I am afraid that the Heavenly Dao will retaliate."
"Then come for me." Zhu Houwei snorted coldly: "The small country of the projectile also dares to be disrespectful to the Chinese Dynasty, if the heavenly soldiers don't kill it, I won't be blind to death!"
Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said: "I don't know why you hate Japan so much, it seems that it is not enough to rely on those unfashionable Japanese to attack the coast, but if you are really ready to fight Japan, you will personally conquer, how about I be a general?"
"You are now the Taiwu Emperor of Dawu......"
"Bullshit Taiwu Emperor, where can you have half the joy of fighting!"
That's right......
"So we all think that we make a lot of money, but who has ever thought about how much silver is needed to build these basic projects, this silver spent every day is really no different from running water, the annual income of the royal family and the treasury adds up to 10,000,000 taels, but most of the silver can be spent, look here......"
Zhu Hou looked over.
"This is Tianjin, which is now the largest industrial base in Daming and the largest port in Daming." Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "The Wu Dynasty in Western Europe, as well as Australia and the Americas, these places want to be closely connected with the Ming Dynasty, and if they want to be able to communicate with each other, then they must develop the coastal economy, and I plan to build Tianjin, Songjiang and Guangzhou and Jinou in the southeast into four major coastal cities, and the development of maritime trade will further promote the rapid development of the Ming Dynasty's inland economy, and at the same time can also drive the rapid development of the fraternal country."
Zhu Houzhao said speechlessly: "It's too far away...... The military country is not so complicated now, and the focus now is to stabilize the domestic situation, establish a perfect ruling order, and vigorously develop the population. ”
Zhu Houwei agreed: "I also know, but time is not waiting, I am almost forty, how many years can I sit in this position, I naturally hope that the development of Daming can achieve the expected goals."
"What goal?"
"The main cities in the southeast and northwest are open to traffic, and the rest is easy to say, that is, the west is a little difficult, and the other is to build four major coastal cities, as well as the development of industry and commerce, to free thousands of people from the land, and I also hope to see the bridges on the Yangtze River and the Yellow River can be opened to traffic, and I also hope to see the dam can successfully store water and drain water......"
Zhu Houzhao ran away......
