Relying on the wealth plundered from overseas, the Ming Empire flourished.

There are constantly large-scale projects started in various places, and the government does not include lakes here, and the project funds for each project are fully allocated.

In the past, the people had to work for the government for a period of time every year, which was called forced labor.

Now, there is no more conscription.

Those who work for the government are those who can get projects from the government.

Mistreatment of workers is strictly forbidden!

In fact, farmers who are getting richer are less willing to leave their homes to work on construction sites.

In order to have enough people to work, the contractor had to raise his salary, and marked additional terms and conditions, including board and lodging!

Mistreatment of workers is not allowed, and there are special people in the government to inspect them. The imperial court will also send people to make secret visits.

If anyone dares to do this, they have to look at the heads of the people in the city who are being dried.

Not long ago, he was also a strong man on the rich side. Because his subordinates mistreated the workers, he was accused of going to the government.

After an unannounced inspection of the imperial court appeared, his head hung on the city gate.

The human head has always been a good deterrent, both in the East and the West.

The full and timely payment of wages also promotes consumption.

After the workers have paid their wages, they can go to spending. For example, if you put on a good wine that you are usually reluctant to drink, you can take two cups a day to relieve your fatigue.

Or simply go to the restaurant and experience the chef's skills that I have never tasted in my life.

Or take your little lady and go to the ready-to-wear store in the city to pick out some beautiful clothes. If you have a good family, you will also visit a jewelry store.

When the girl is older, she always has to have a few pieces of jewelry.

Buy a pig's hind leg for my father, and send some favorite pastries to my father-in-law. When the daughter-in-law returned to her parents' house, she also had a special face.

This is the method that Li Hao and Ai Husheng discussed after meeting Sun Chengzong.

Find a way to let the people work, as long as the people who work will be paid.

After all, it is still the peasants who make up the main body of the Ming people.

Of the 400 million people, 80 percent are farmers.

As long as the peasants are rich, then the Ming Dynasty will also be rich.

Of course, there will be corruption in this, and the foreman will also take the opportunity to rub a lot of oil and water from the court.

But Li Hao doesn't care, as long as most of the money falls into the hands of the workers. The state has built roads, dams, and bridges, and the quality of the projects is not bad.

Daming is like a non-stop machine, and the power and lubricating oil that drive this machine are a steady stream of money.

Fortunately, the Ming court is not short of money now.

Openly and secretly, the Ming Dynasty plundered back a huge amount of wealth from Europe. More than the income of the Ming State Treasury in ten years!

Now, it's time to get the money out as soon as possible. Let this money be turned into factories as soon as possible.

Wide roads, bridges across rivers.

Of course, the construction of the railway is the most important thing.

A kind of building is starting to pop up in the city!

This kind of building is usually three or four storeys high, but the area is huge. Generally speaking, you have to have at least twenty acres of land!

These buildings are divided into various stalls, which sell clothes, accessories, and even furniture and some machines used in urban households.

Electric fans and washing machines are the most popular products. Especially popular with housewives!

With an electric fan, the sultry summer doesn't seem so sad either. If the conditions at home are a little better, buy a basin of ice from the ice seller and put it in front of the electric fan, and you can sleep peacefully on a hot night.

As for the washing machine, it has become a friend of women in the early Ming Dynasty.

Originally, it was inconvenient to wash clothes in the city, and the washboard not only wasted clothes, but also made hands rough.

It's much better to have a washing machine, as long as there is water in the sky and white laundry detergent, the washed clothes just need to be poured into the water.

This greatly alleviates the labor intensity of the women, and as long as the conditions at home permit, every family has to get such a one.

Of course, this has to be in the city with electricity. In the countryside, even if there is such a good thing, you can't use it.

No way, no electricity.

Electricity is a big problem, but when the rights were distributed, Li Xiao exchanged water and electricity for the Zheng family's military power.

As a result, Daming has not been able to do well in hydropower for so many years.

There is no way, the Zheng family, who was born as a pirate, has the word robbery engraved in their genes.

Let them do anything else, and they will all be blind!

For so many years, apart from the construction of a few hydropower stations in some small river ditches, there have been no major projects at all.

It's not that they don't want to start the project to make money, but they really don't have the ability.

The place chosen is either too big or too small.

Zheng Sen's cousin actually set his eyes on the Yangtze River. He said that he would build a hydropower station on the Yangtze River, and he calculated that the electricity after the repair could support the entire southeast.

Li Hao also calculated that this project could make the Ming Dynasty a pants off.

With the current national strength of the Ming Dynasty and the difficulty of construction, the construction of such a project is no different from the reclamation of Yugong Mountain Jingwei.

A small project is to build a hydropower station on the Haihe River.

The people from the Ministry of Industry went to inspect it, and it was not impossible to repair. It's just that after the repair, the Haihe River is in danger of being diverted.

In addition, large tracts of fertile land had to be flooded, and large numbers of peasants had to be relocated.

The cost of production may not be recovered by the hydropower station within a hundred years.

The eyes are high and the hands are low, and they are talking about the Zheng family.

In addition, after Zheng Zhilong died of illness, the Zheng family was in a state of leaderlessness. No one was able to stand up and integrate the power of the Zheng family.

The Zheng family is even more finished!

Over the years, the only person in the Zheng family who has stood out is Zheng Sen.

He has always been in charge of Honglu Temple, the highest diplomatic institution of the Ming Dynasty!

He also consciously planted his brothers in the Honglu Temple.

Since it is not possible to engage in technology, then simply come to Honglu Temple to do diplomacy. Anyway, Honglu Temple needs a lot of manpower now!

Because the Ming Dynasty wants to send ambassadors to various countries to protect the rights of the Ming Dynasty in those countries.

India alone is divided into dozens of small states. A small state has one agency, and that is dozens of people.

Pick the talents available in the family, and in the future, simply do diplomacy.

The diplomats of the Ming Dynasty are respected everywhere they go.

No one dares to disrespect!

Diplomats who do not respect the Ming are likely to attract sanctions from the Ming Dynasty. What's even more serious is that the fierce army of the Ming Dynasty directly killed it.

Snatch the country from the bottom, and then cut off the king's head and bring it back to ask for credit.

As for the ...... people in this country, the Ming people have always been in charge of killing and burying. How you live, that's your business, and it has nothing to do with Daming.
