It's time to cash out!

As soon as Zhu Yunxi's words fell, there was a noise in the governor's mansion.

The memories of everyone here were pulled back to a long time ago, when the imperial court was paying attention to the reform of Zhejiang Daotianmu, and the imperial grandson returned to Yingtian after temporarily quelling the turmoil in Zhejiang Dao, and had that transaction with the people here today.

All the nobles and nobles of the Ming Dynasty respect the will of the imperial court, apportionment into the mu, the integration of officials and gentry, and the payment of commercial taxes.

The imperial court needs to give a 1:10 exchange for the newly requisitioned land outside the Saiwai to compensate the noble generals for their support for the reform of the imperial court's fields.

A few months ago, these nobles present today thought that the results of Zhejiang Dao would not bear fruit until at least this year, and it would take at least three or five years to spread out to the entire Ming Dynasty.

After three or five years, it is the time for each family to show their loyalty, and it is also the time to exchange for benefits from outside the country.

They just didn't expect that they would be able to cash in on the original deal a few months later.

Everyone's faces were different, and some people were worried that the land after the exchange was far away from Yingtian, and how could they ensure that the interests of each family would not be damaged after the exchange.

But more people are excited about the one-to-ten exchange ratio, ten times the income, even if it is far away from Yingtian, that is, the loss is estimated to fifty percent, and each family still doubles and doubles the blood earnings.

Chang Sheng was more calm, and asked softly: "I don't know what has changed in this matter?" ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "On the southern side of Xinjiang, Annan and Liao people invaded the border, hurting the lives of our Ming people and officers and soldiers, and took advantage of the autumn harvest in Guangxi and Yunnan in the south to loot goods on a large scale.

The concert was sent directly into the palace from the south, and it just arrived in His Majesty's hands today. This matter has not yet been revealed to the imperial court. ”

Chang Sheng frowned: "There was chaos in the south again." ”

Today's Ming Dynasty, although it controls the Central Plains Zhili plus twelve roads. But over there, starting from Fujian, Jiangxi, Huguang, and Sichuan to the south, there was basically not much actual domination.

For example, the southern part of Jiangxi Province, the southern part of Huguang Road, the southern part of Sichuan Province, Guangdong Province, Guangxi Province, and Yunnan Province are almost all in a state of coexistence of soil flow.

Soil flow coexists.

In other words, it is a pre-policy of changing the land and returning it to the stream.

Although the policy of changing the land and returning it to the river was a policy that was praised by people hundreds of years later, if there was no system of coexistence of land flow that had been implemented in southern Xinjiang and other places since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, how could the wild boars who came in from outside Shanhaiguan completely complete the policy of changing the land and returning to the river.

The coexistence of today's Tuliu is an improved version of the Tuguan autonomy policy of the Central Plains Dynasty that ruled the south before the Yuan Dynasty.

The imperial court appeased the local Tusi and local officials, rewarded them with official titles, and would send central officials as liuguan to govern the southern region.

Step by step, it erodes the control of the local officials over the local natives.

In such an environment, the guards that Daming is now set up in the south can almost be described as weak in combat power.

Except, of course, for the army commanded by the Marquis of Xiping, who now sits in Yunnan.

But in such a situation, there are often situations where small countries in the southern states invade and plunder the Ming Dynasty, and even many times it is those Tusi local officials in the southern provinces who turn into bandits and go down the mountain to loot.

Chang Sheng said in a low voice: "I'm afraid it's difficult to use such a thing as an excuse and reason. ”

If there is chaos in the south, the imperial court will send troops to attack, and I am afraid that it is necessary to transfer the hundreds of thousands of Jingwei troops and the 26th Wei army of Shangzhi who are now stationed in Yingtian to the south, so that it is possible to stop the riots and looting one after another.

Most of the people nodded in agreement.

Zhu Yunxi said: "So, this is also the reason why Lone came to find your uncles today. A few days later, at the time of the court meeting, the orphan association issued an edict to reopen the current examination and give the people in Beijing another chance to take the imperial examination. At that time, a decision will be made on those involved in fraud, and the news from the south will also be made public. ”

Chang Sheng's eyes turned, and after careful consideration in his heart, he slowly spoke: "In this way, Your Highness is not in a hurry to start an army to recruit Annan and the Liao people at this age?" If this is the case, I don't know what kind of means His Highness should take if he wants to attack southern Xinjiang, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies can also operate it in advance in case of emergency. ”

Zhang Wen, the Marquis of Huining, said: "It's just that although the imperial court has a post station system now, and the household department has added a lot of money and grain, but once the army goes south, I'm afraid the imperial court will not be able to get this money and grain......"

As soon as Zhang Wen said this, everyone couldn't help but blush.

Even Zhu Yunxi was a little speechless.

The Ming Dynasty is too poor!

Chang Sheng said: "This year's summer harvest and autumn harvest have been completed, but I don't know how effective the Zhejiang Road is in spreading the land into the mu, the officials and gentry are integrated, and the commercial tax is collected." ”

Zhu Yunxi thought of his second uncle who was still abandoned by himself in Zhejiang Province, so he smiled and said: "I want to come to Zhejiang Province this year after the results of the restructuring, and it is about to be sent to Beijing." ”

Money!

Zhu Yunxi suddenly found that he had never been more short of money than now.

Chang Sheng reiterated again: "What kind of troops does Your Highness want to use in southern Xinjiang? ”

"With the selection of elite soldiers and strong generals from the Beijing Guard, the officers and soldiers of the two guards of Guangdong and Guangxi as the branches, and the Marquis of Xiping as the flank, they attacked in parallel. Qiongzhou Mansion went to sea to transport troops, and it was directly a place for thieves. In this way, if there is a lack of one of the three enclosures, the north and south borders of Anbei can be flattened. ”

When Chang Sheng heard this, he had already imagined in his mind a picture of the terrain of southern Xinjiang, and the situation map of where the imperial court was going to use troops, where to attack, and where to encircle and suppress.

After a short while, Chang Sheng spoke: "In this way, in His Highness's plan, the imperial court will only transfer a maximum of three or five guards from Jingwei to the south. The rest are supplemented by soldiers and horses from the three local guards of Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunnan. ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said, "Uncle is right. After all, southern Xinjiang is not like the Central Plains, and most of the Jingwei are from both sides of the river, so it is difficult to garrison southern Xinjiang for a long time, so it can only be used for the most difficult battles, and only the soldiers and horses of Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunnan are the soldiers who are most suitable for the territory of Annan and Liao. ”

Chang Sheng said: "In this way, just when the Beijing guards and horses arrive at Zhennan Pass, the imperial court and the local government will spend no less than 100,000 quintals of grain and grass. ”

"There are also soldiers' military uniforms, weapons, herbs, horses, firearms, and so on, which are estimated to cost no less than 200,000 taels of silver." Huining Hou Zhang Wen said again.

Chang Sheng nodded, and said to Zhu Yunxi: "These are just counting the cost of going south, once the war starts, the cost in the army is like a sea current." ”

"But Annan and the Lao Ministry, Daming must take it!" Zhu Yunxi stood up suddenly, and looked at the nobles present who had heard the sound because of his movements.

Zhu Yunxi slammed his fists on the table with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "This time, the Ming Dynasty will not only take down Annam and the Lao Ministry, but also take the Champa Dynasty, the Angkor Dynasty, the Sukhothai Dynasty, Luo Hu, the Mengren, Bagan, Arakan and other places!" ”

As the local forces in southern Xinjiang, familiar or unfamiliar, drilled into the ears of the nobles present from the mouth of the grandson.

In the middle hall of the Governor's Mansion, there was a dead silence.

Originally, including Chang Sheng, everyone thought that Taisun was just going south to Annan and subdued the Liaoren Department, and then fulfilled the original promise to exchange the land of the Ming Xungui in the Central Plains to Annan.

But now, they finally realized that they had been wrong all the time.

No one thought that Taisun would play so big!

He wants to conquer the entire southern Xinjiang and return it to the Ming Dynasty!

Even if there was no reason for Chang Sheng to turn his back on the East Palace, the eyes he looked at Zhu Yunxi at this moment also showed a hint of doubt.

Zhu Yunxi also knew that at this moment, it was just a few words, and it would not be able to make these people change their thinking, but he still said firmly: "Uncles, you just need to know that there is a rich land over there that is not lower than Huguangjiang, Jiangxi Zhili, and Sandao. ”

"Half of the Central Plains?" Even Chang Sheng couldn't help but mumble when he heard these words.

"Yes!" Zhu Yunxi snorted, his eyes shimmering: "There are no less than half of the plains in the south of the Yangtze River, if my Central Plains people cultivate, they can even cultivate three times a year." ”

Huining Hou Zhang Wen had a hideous face and hesitated: "Is this really the case? ”

Zhu Yunxi waved his sleeves: "There are many envoys in Beijing, such as Annan and Liaoren, and your uncles can go to the side to ask for details." ”

Hu Hai, the Marquis of Dongchuan, who had been silent, got up and asked: "Your Highness, Chen Qi asked, if I conquered these places by the Ming Dynasty, how should the imperial court govern them, even if they can produce countless grains, how should they be transported to the sky?" ”

This is an important question.

In many cases, the Central Plains Dynasty did not have more strength to expand its territory, but was constrained by the factor of distance, and the large armies fighting abroad were threatened by supply lines all the time, so that the Central Plains kept going around and back and forth on the existing territory.

Even if it is as strong as the Tang Dynasty and proud of the Western Regions, it has also caused a shortage of supplies due to a change in the country, and finally the Han family in the Central Plains has completely lost the Western Regions for hundreds of years, and until now there has never been a Han court to set foot in Anxi again, let alone the Western Regions!

Zhu Yunxi smiled silently, and when he saw that everyone was looking expectantly, he coughed lightly.

"Sea Transport! This is also a good thing for your uncles. ”

Chang Sheng hesitated: "Sea freight? ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "Since Emperor Yang of Sui opened the Grand Canal, most of the grain and grass materials in the Central Plains, from north to south, from north to north, have been transported by inland rivers. Now I am a Ming Dynasty, with the power of Jiangnan and Huguang, to supply countless grain and grass materials on the nine sides, and it is also the road of the canal. Probably this is exactly the case, but the imperial court ignored the convenience of shipping and the carrying capacity of inland rivers. ”

【Daming Sister-in-law】 【】

Zhang Wen, Marquis of Huining, whispered: "But now the treasure ships and big ships of the imperial court are all led by sailors, and the ministers dare not encroach on their private property." ”

Zhu Yunxi said directly: "The big ship of the imperial court sailor is used by the guard. But I heard that in Fujian and Zhejiang, and even in Guangdong, there are countless maritime merchants who build large ships and trade goods and goods to the sea.

And this is the good thing that Lone sent to your uncles this time, this time the court only needs to set the strategy of the southern expedition. The army has been captured, in addition to the part that has been collected by the imperial court, I am afraid that it will also be a harvest that can shock your uncles.

I hope that your uncles can buy and build large ships in Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and other places as soon as possible, which will be used to transport the spoils of war after the war, and can also be used to transport the output of southern Xinjiang and other places back to heaven in the future. ”

Zhu Yunxi already planned to hand over the big deal of shipping to these Ming nobles present.

In fact, the imperial court can naturally monopolize this huge profit, but this will involve the process of building a giant ship and warship in the Ming Dynasty.

Mobilize these noble generals who can be said to be retired with the Ming Dynasty to undertake the development of shipping, and can also induce them to encourage and attract the gentry and merchants in the Ming Dynasty to take the initiative to attach importance to shipping and let them also go out.

The praise of half of the Jiangnan in southern Xinjiang is not an exaggeration by Zhu Yunxi, but a real fact.

Thinking of the fertile land of the Mekong Plain, Zhu Yunxi longed to take the Ming army down now.

As long as the people of Daming truly realize the value of that land, these vested interests in the Ming Dynasty can go out, instead of shrinking in the Central Plains all day long.

In the end, most of the already small land in the Central Plains was concentrated in the hands of a few people.

Then as long as there is a natural or man-made disaster, it will be a great chaos in the Central Plains, and the situation of displaced people and rebels everywhere.

Stabilizing the political situation in the Central Plains and sucking blood from abroad to replenish the Central Plains is the only answer that Zhu Yunxi can think of now to solve the cyclical law of national Zuo.

As for liberating the labor force and increasing productivity?

How can the development of industry be done overnight?

In comparison, Zhu Yunxi always believes that it is easier to go out and grab resources.

Whoever made the future enemies of the Central Plains have proved it to everyone in this world.

In the Governor's Mansion, dozens of meritorious generals present here are all reminiscing about the remarks of the imperial grandson.

Even if they are reckless men in the military array, as long as they ponder slowly, they will still figure out something different after all.

After thinking clearly, Zhang Wen, Marquis of Huining, immediately turned his head to look at Chang Sheng, the founding prince who was sitting at the top of his right hand.

With it, it is a famous marquis who has made meritorious deeds, and set his sights on Changsheng.

Chang Sheng was helpless, so he had to arch his hand and say: "Your Highness, according to Your Highness's wishes, will the shipping of southern Xinjiang be entrusted to the ministers and other families in the future?" ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "You are Lone's uncle, Lone's uncle, Lone's uncle is the most trustworthy to you!" ”

In his plan to expand his territory, he still expects these people in front of him to not give them enough benefits, and these people will only be swept up in the Central Plains without moving.

As for going out to exploit?

What's the matter with him Zhu Yunxi.

Seeing Zhu Yunxi admit it in person, everyone's faces couldn't help but relax, and wisps of expectation gradually ignited in their hearts.

【Daming Sister-in-law】 【】

If there is really half of the Central Plains in the south, if they really hand over these meritorious generals by sea, they will be willing to send all the children of their own families to fight!

After all, it's all about working for their own home.

Chang Sheng never let go, but continued to ask: "Then this time the army is in southern Xinjiang, I'm afraid Your Highness will use shipping." In this way, His Highness still needs to do something. ”

This is not the time to hide.

Zhu Yunxi said bluntly: "If the army is set to move south of Xinjiang this time, I hope that the merchants of each family can supply some of the soldiers to the south of the grain, grass, herbs and other things." Every time the army makes a catch, it also needs to be sold by the merchants under your door to sell it in the sky and convert it into money and grain. ”

I heard that the grandson mentioned the matter of Shang Jia.

In addition to Chang Sheng, everyone present silently either lowered their heads or looked away.

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "I have never blamed your uncles, to feed a large family, you always need more money and food." The art of merchants is not such a despicable thing, and now Zhejiang Province is being restructured, and merchants pay heavy taxes, which is a contribution to the imperial court, and the imperial court is in the eyes. ”

Hearing Taisun say this, everyone thought about it again and felt that Taisun didn't tell a lie.

Previously, the imperial court did not collect much commercial tax, and it did not matter if the merchant was of a humble status. Nowadays, Zhejiang Province imposes heavy taxes on merchants, which is the contribution of merchants to the imperial court.

Anyone who has contributed to the country can be called humble.

However, Cao Zhen muttered: "But there are indeed no businessmen in the Chen's family...... Didn't that minister suffer a loss......"

Hearing this fool say this, the governor's mansion couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Zhu Yunxi also rolled his eyes: "The court has set the rules, and the people have moved when they hear it, and the Marquis of Jingchuan is still afraid that there will be no businessmen who take the initiative to work under the Cao Mansion?" ”

"Huh?"

Cao Zhen grew his mouth and looked dazed.

Zhu Yunxi smiled helplessly, waved his sleeves and walked down from the main seat, and came to Chang Sheng: "Uncle, you can start to select soldiers from the south as much as possible among the Jingwei, and you must prepare more firearms, and the Longjiang Shipyard and the sailors will also pass the order." ”

Chang Sheng nodded and said in a low voice: "This time, His Royal Highness wants the soldiers of Jingwei to go south by sea?" ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "Secret guard, there is a copper mine in Qiongzhou Mansion, if the imperial court wants to pass through southern Xinjiang, it can build a military strategy with Qiongzhou Mansion as the core." Officers and soldiers could land at Lianzhou from the sea and attack Annam from Zhennan Pass. In addition, the army was divided into the sea and directly attacked the coastal area of the hinterland of Annam. ”

"There is a copper mine in Qiongzhou Mansion?" Chang Sheng was shocked again, and he could make himself, the grandson of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, describe it as pouring sky.

Chang Sheng couldn't imagine how rich the copper mine in Qiongzhou Mansion was.

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "Even if it doesn't, it still depends on shipping through southern Xinjiang, and Qiongzhou Mansion can't get around it anyway." ”

This is natural, after all, Qiongzhou and Annam are separated by a certain distance from the sea.

Chang Sheng also had a measure in his heart, and arched his hand: "The minister will live up to His Highness's expectations." ”

Zhu Yunxi hummed, and said in a lower voice: "The Xiping Marquis Mansion will be a partial division, but the main force of Zhennan Pass and the sea needs a capable commander, and my uncle can think about who is enough to serve it." ”

【Daming Sister-in-law】 【】

Chang Sheng raised his head and looked at his eldest nephew who was blinking in front of him.

He couldn't help but smile helplessly: "Your Highness wants the minister to serve as the chief general of the southern Xinjiang army this time?" ”

Zhu Yunxi said in a deep voice: "Uncle and grandfather went to the northwest to quell the rebellion, Song Guogong and others are in the north, and now even Cao Guogong is also in the country to lead the army of the war." The Zhongshan Dynasty is still young and not strong enough to lead an army. The same is true for the Wei Guo Gong family, and the Tang Li of the Xinguo Gong family is now in Zhejiang. After doing the math, the nephew thought that it was time for the uncle to move. ”

The army is in southern Xinjiang, and now it is already in the direction of the national war and opening half of the Central Plains.

Chang Sheng also knows that those young juniors still lack experience and can't bear such a big battle.

If it was just a few battles, the children of the meritorious generals in the court would be enough to take on it, but now it is really only himself who is the most suitable.

It's just that Chang Sheng looked at Zhu Yunxi, who was smiling in front of him, with a puzzled look, and suddenly said quietly: "Does Your Highness also want to go to Southern Xinjiang?" ”

Zhu Yunxi immediately shook his head: "Everything is judged by the saint, and my nephew has never been in battle, but I am afraid that I will cause chaos if I go." ”

Chang Sheng smiled.

Bow down and clench your fists.

"Congratulations to the grandson."
