Chapter 118: Suffer a little
A well, halfway through, "Okay...... What a Zhang Qing who plans for the world! There is also Gao Gu, how can it be that my consideration is for the sake of the people of Li?
Why the price of grain in the north is much higher than in the south, in addition to the climate, it is in the word water!
Besides, in order to protect the water transport, even in a year of great drought, there is little river water for irrigation.
Although it is necessary to increase manpower and material resources for the south-to-north water diversion, Zhang Yi's Xu Xu Tuzhi may not be able to be used at this time.
Even if it is difficult to do this in a moment, even irrigating a field is beneficial.
Ladies and gentlemen, are you right? Regardless of the pros and cons, the behavior of the overall harm is a hooligan! ”
Zhu Qizhen finally expressed his meaning, listening to the roundabout, anyway, I was soft, but not completely soft.
Why are you saying this is disrespectful to me, the emperor, you can't change the waterways of the world, can't you change a city or even a river?
"What the emperor said is extremely true! Gao Ge Lao, you are responsible for the affairs of the Ministry of Works.
Take Henan as an example, if the Yellow River is diverted, will it also enable the people to irrigate more and suffer less from flooding? Yu Qian turned to ask Ji Gaogu and took Zhu Qizhen's anger.
After pondering for a moment, Gao Gu said: "The Yellow River is a hanging river on the ground, and the main trunk is far higher than the terrain on both sides of the river, and it cannot be moved.
However, if the DC is dispersed, it should be possible! Your Majesty, the minister is stupid and failed to comprehend the holy will, you want to imitate Dayu to control the water! ”
With Yu Qian's explanation, although the taste of a south-to-north water diversion has changed, it has finally taken the first step.
"Then it's decided, first Xu Youzhen will lead people to clean up the tidal flats in various places, and strive to complete the transformation of the river before the flood season." Zhu Qizhen made the final decision.
At night, Yu Qian was on duty, and the other person was Liu Zhongshi.
Zhu Qizhen came to Wenyuan Pavilion again after dinner, and opened his mouth to ask: "What do you think of the day's events?" You are from the household department and know the use of the imperial court best. ”
Liu Zhongfu didn't think about it and said: "If it is according to the emperor's idea at the beginning, then our Ming Dynasty really doesn't have so much money."
But if you just talk about the later plan, I think this matter is feasible!

The imperial court's annual expenditure on dredging the river has reached millions of taels, which is actually not much different from it, but it is more important to the overall planning.
If every change can be targeted, then the minister thinks that the sewers that connect the world are not empty buildings.
At least the use of water can also benefit, of course, for the people of the Ming Dynasty, it is a rare good thing! ”
There are some things, everyone says they are good, but no one does it, not only because of money, but also about profit.
There are many more strange reasons and reasons for worrying that this will make them run out of water, and where there is too much water, they will be afraid that feng shui will be affected.
If the emperor just stood on a high place and looked at the past, even if the ground was flat, but if he was closer, even if the road surface was flat, there would inevitably be small pits of stones.
The important thing is to be down-to-earth, otherwise it will be like a yellow book, check it carefully, and there is no other way than to use newcomers, and the rest are officials who have learned a good exchange of interests.
In this way, there must be a reasonable reason to proceed, after all, the vassal king who moved first, no matter how noble you are, can you compare to the prince of the Ming Dynasty?
Zhu Qizhen knew that this matter was not easy to do, especially since this kind of huge project would inevitably have to let the people serve, if it was pressed, the people at this time would really rebel.
"Since you said that you want to plan well, Liu Zhongfu will pick up this matter, design and design with the people of the Ministry of Industry, and strive to choose the location for the river transformation first.
It is implemented separately in each locality, and it is important to remember that the people and money are lost, but if there is a disaster in a place, can you have silver in the silver account of your household now? ”
This kind of work-for-relief dilemma, Liu Zhongfu naturally knows, nodded and agreed, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the Huangming business you have established has already had some scale."
Coupled with the income from commercial taxes, the imperial court already has a lot of tax sources, and there will be no difficulty in thinking about just two places. ”
Come to think of it, just two, well, really cautious.
"Then there is Lao Aiqing!" After speaking, Zhu Qizhen suddenly glared at Yu Qian before leaving Wenyuan Pavilion.
Liu Zhongshi's gaze turned on Zhu Qizhen and the two, and he nodded hesitantly, as if he had figured out the reason.
As for Yu Qian, from
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
From beginning to end, he had a calm expression, as if Zhu Qizhen's dissatisfied eyes had no effect on him at all, this is the emperor after all, hey!
Although everyone knows that Yu Qian is the first assistant that Zhu Qizhen values, people will change, and now in the eyes of others, this pair of monarchs and ministers is obviously not in the honeymoon period.
Thinking about Yu Qian taking the lead in blocking some of Zhu Qizhen's strange ideas and being rejected by the emperor, even the old cabinet members are mostly sympathetic to Shoufu.
As everyone knows, the two monarchs and ministers have a clear division of labor, and one red and one white calculates them.
After the order to prepare locusts was issued, the local government moved when it heard the noise.
The gentry class was re-energized by the eighty years of tax exemption, and they were screaming to carry out the reclamation to the end, and even the wages of the short-term workers were much higher.
provoked Xu Youzhen to be unable to smoothly recruit people's husbands, but everything he looked up to was full of complaints, and he was willing to come to serve only after the wasteland was reclaimed.
Fortunately, Xu Youzhen is not in a hurry, he has just begun to investigate the water situation of the Lugou River, although the Lugou River is not as violent as the Yellow River, but it is also the danger of overflowing the embankment every time it rains.
"Lord Xu, there is a village twenty miles ahead, and it's noon soon, should we stay in Perfume Village and eat before leaving?" Hu Gaoyun, director of the Water Department of the Ministry of Industry, suggested.
Xu Youzhen looked into the distance with some reluctance, the sooner and earlier this errand was done, the better the impression he would naturally be able to leave on Zhu Qizhen, but looking at the eager eyes of several officials under his Ministry of Industry, he could only agree.
"Let's go!" Xu Youzhen said a word, and followed Hu Gaoyun to Perfume Village.
Naturally, there is no inn restaurant in such a small village, and after entering the perfume village, according to Hu Gaoyun's meaning, he went to find the chief and other local officials to make a relationship.
was only denied by Xu Youzhen, he insisted on going to the farmer's house to have a look and inquire about the situation of the Lugou River.
When everyone heard this, the smiling face that had bloomed because of the temporary break turned into a bitter gourd appearance, not for anything else, but the farmer's family would definitely not have a good meal, and they could only follow their own adults to find it in the village.
After a short time, Xu Youzhen came to a house with a fence as a courtyard wall, and the bitterness on the faces of several people deepened.
