Chapter 478: Agriculture and Commerce

"Then let's do it, explain the cabinet's intentions, the world's shelters are indeed a major event to maintain the stability of people's livelihood, don't look down on it."

"At critical moments, with such an institution, the people sometimes have more confidence, of course, this is not just for the people of the world to see... These children will also be the pillars of the Ming Dynasty in the future! ”

Zhu Youzhen explained that Wang Chengen went to the cabinet to explain the proposed purpose, and then stood in front of the world map hanging on the wall in the Dongnuan Pavilion.

The corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he said, "The time is almost ripe, I want to show the world too!" The so-called pirate civilization is so vulnerable to the gap in science and technology of the times! ”

Later generations have been analyzed by scholars.

One of the main reasons why the economy of the Central Plains declined rapidly in the 19th century was that there was a huge trade surplus between the Tatar Qing and Qing dynasties at that time.

As a result, the entire Taixi countries fought with each other for a long, long time for silver.

It was not until the end that they really couldn't find a commodity that could be sold to the Central Plains in the true sense, and finally led history to war.

But for this view.

Zhu Youzhen was obviously unconvinced, after all, in his opinion, if a country has strong strength, then it doesn't matter if he is a so-called pirate civilization or not.

Even if he comes to invade the vast coastline of the Ming Dynasty, he will run away after the fight...

So that Daming can't prevent it?

In the final analysis, the strength is still not enough, and now the Ming Dynasty controls Dongfan, Nanyang, and Fusang, and will eventually take the entire Strait of Malacca and Luzon in the future.

In this way, in the overseas of the Ming Dynasty, one sea fortress after another has been able to hang.

Generations of guardians of the Ming Dynasty.

....

Time has passed, and the curtain of Daming Chongzhen's five years has been completely opened.

Spring.

Spring returns to the earth, and everything recovers.

The eyes of the officials in the court looked closely at Zhu Youzhen on the dragon chair, and only heard Zhu Youzhen speak: "Houjin has repeatedly offended the Ming Dynasty, and even took the initiative to attack the Ming Guard last year, violating the territory of the Ming Dynasty, causing the death and injury of the soldiers of the defending border division!" ”

"I have made up my mind, after the spring ploughing!"

"Go to war!"

...."The Emperor Shengming! ”

Why Zhu Youzhen has put many things on the face of the court now, on the one hand, is because most of the officials who can still participate in such an early dynasty are already officials of the New Political Bureau, and it can be said that they have been thorough royalists since their birth.

That is, their future is closely linked to Zhu Youzhen on the dragon chair in front of them, if the emperor is gone, there will be nothing for them.

As for the rest of the royal family, that's even more so.

On the other hand, because of today's Houjin, he has almost lost the intelligence system that he had worked hard to operate for a long time in Daming.

The originally arrogant post-gold spy.

Now it has almost disappeared in the capital, even in the entire scope of the Ming Dynasty, there is not one in ten.

Instead... In Houjin, Jinyiwei's spies are all over the north and south.

Every once in a while, information will be transmitted to Daming like snowflakes.

.....

After spring ploughing, the Ming Dynasty will go to war with the Houjin.

This is because Zhu Youzhen's meteorological data show that the climatic conditions in the five years of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty will be greatly eased compared with last year.

Food was extremely important to the Ming Dynasty, because as the Dutch sphere of influence continued to shrink to Europe, the Spaniards and Portuguese who were still in East Asia almost burst into flames every day when they saw the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty.

How could he take the initiative to sell food for Daming.

If it weren't for the abundance of martial arts in the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that he would have already changed his way to "do business" with the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Youzhen's defensive thoughts about this group of pirates would not have diminished in the slightest.

Daming Liaodong Agricultural Reclamation Group.

Tutu Tu Tu ....

Under the black smoke in the sky, a mechanical tractor was speeding in the field, and Huo Fugui was holding the tractor lever in his hand tightly with a smile on his face.

It's a good feeling..

But before he could linger for long, he heard another middle-aged man on the side scolding loudly and angrily: "Old Huo! You old thing! Slow down... I'm dying of you! ”

There was another person standing next to the tow bucket behind the tractor, and Cao Si was mainly responsible for keeping a close eye on the normal work of the tow bucket used for ploughing behind him.

Cao Si's shout was heard.

Huo Fugui suddenly broke out in a cold sweat... Myself just now.. What are you thinking?

The effect of mechanized farming is undoubted, if in the usual years, a person and a cow would be considered to die. It can plough two acres of land in one day.

If the cow were older, one acre would be enough to choke.

But now that the steam-powered tractor that Daming Agricultural Reclamation Group has just allocated, the two of them will work hard for thirty or fifty acres in just one day, if they are veterans like Huo Fugui and Cao Si.

Like in a tractor technology competition, two people cooperate in one day.

It can be cultivated more than sixty-five acres.

Leaving the rest of the farm behind completely.

....

Yangzhou, Qinhuai River.

The so-called "Yangzhou Thin Horse" that originally permeated both sides of the river bank has long disappeared here, and the strict control of the imperial court over the Fengyue place has made it no longer like in history to attract those men from all over the world to rush to Yangzhou.

But now, the prosperity of the two sides of the strait is no less than it was at the beginning.

However, the main business has long since changed from an illegal business project between bustards and prostitutes to a serious commercial trade, and silk and embroidery have become the new synonyms of Yangzhou Prefecture.

Prosperous overseas trade has flooded the two sides of the river with a large number of silk workshops.

Many of the original prostitutes also ended their lives under the heavy-handed measures of the imperial court, which they might be able to accept, or may not be able to resist.

In short, what is forbidden by the imperial court cannot be continued.

There is also an antonym for forcing good people to become prostitutes, which is to save these people and restore their lives to a normal trajectory.

Yangzhou thin horse has become a shameful word left in history.

But no one ever mentions it anymore.

Those prostitutes at the beginning had already gotten rid of their miserable fate, and they no longer needed to exchange for a broken body like a willow and then use the money they had saved.

Find a country man who can accept him and end his life depressed.

Daming Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, Yangzhou Silk General Factory.

The women wore the uniforms distributed by the factory, and each of them had an unconcealed smile on their faces.

"How many silk clothes did Nong make today?"

"Two pieces! What about you? ”

"I'm just a little more than one, my sister is amazing..."

"What... It's our factory's sewing machine that is easy to use, if you embroider it yourself with a needle and a thread, I'm afraid you won't be able to get a ready-to-wear garment in half a month! ”
