When Yang Feng set off again the next day, it was already a very large team, with eighteen children in six carriages, seven men and six women from Yanzhou Nursing Home.

Entire.

Not all orphans in the care of the nursing home are kept in the nursing home.

Those who have relatives are all raised by relatives, but the nursing home is responsible for providing food, so it is definitely impossible for Yang Feng to take it away.

Those relatives are still reluctant!

Six stone rice a year!

Let's talk about Zhu Yuanzhang's system, these children are only divided after they become adults, but in fact, the children have to work these years, so for their relatives, it is to pick up a labor force for nothing, and also pick up the subsidy of six stone rice per year, as for whether you can eat these six stone rice in a year, this should be a difficult account for a child to calculate.

So such is certainly impossible to give to him.

What he really took away was the kind of person who couldn't even find his relatives who were adopted on his behalf, so he could only be adopted in a nursing home.

As for the other three boys and two girls, the family has too many people to support.

Then I can only ask Yang Feng to adopt, since I was raised by Yang Fengshou, then Yang Feng and their parents are fateful.

So poor, of course you have to take care of it!

The routine operation of my Da Ming Shi doctor, the late Ming Dynasty child servants thousands of gentry, most of the delicate little beauties in the family are adopted daughters, and a large part of the serfs on the land of the family are righteous men, at this time there is already such an operation, so Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly introduced the adopted daughter can not play, play the adultery, according to the Ming law to hang up, the righteous man also has to divide the family property, but it is definitely not possible to prohibit this kind of adoption, in the end, there are various natural disasters in this era, and it is not uncommon to fall into selling children and daughters, The legality of the adoption at least ensured that the children would not starve to death.

Other......

His Majesty the Emperor is not going to go so deep into this issue.

And the guards of these carriages were seventy strong men on horseback, and they were all military households.

Of course, they are not regular soldiers, they are all Yu Ding in the military household, that is, the brothers of regular soldiers, but they also belong to the guard.

Equivalent to a reserve.

In the event of a casualty of their brothers, they are to be replaced.

In the same way, they also have military land allocated by the government, which is only half of the regular army, but if they have the ability to open up wasteland, then these wasteland are exempt from taxes.

Newly opened wasteland, never to be able to do it.

Zhu Yuanzhang is stronger than Brother Ma, who shouted that he would never increase the amount of fire while making the fire consumption soar by two times, but Brother Ma is the Holy Lord Mingjun, he can only be a tyrant, who let the quasi-officials of Brother Ma collect 80% of the fire consumption, and he peeled the skin of the corrupt officials? In the final analysis, history books are not written by mud legs, and the evaluations of mud legs will not be passed on, they will be gone when they die, and the officials and literati are the ones who write history, and their evaluations are evaluations.

Theoretically, there are certain problems with Yang Feng's employment of them, at least it cannot be regarded as very legal, between legal and illegal.

The key depends on the guards to whom they belong.

But the Yanzhou guards who were grabbed by Yang Feng and the commanders of the city guards could only turn a blind eye to this problem.

As for Ambassador Yang's big boxes, they were specially escorted to Jinzhou by the Yanzhou guards.

After all, he is now just a salt merchant who went to Liaodong to prepare for Shangtun, because he had a good relationship with the commander of Ren Chengwei, and he was afraid that he would be hacked to death by bandits in Liaodong, so he asked him to hire a group of Yu Ding in Ren Chengwei. But if he brought a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, it would be difficult to say what would happen, because Zhu Yuanzhang had a strict order, gold and silver could not leave the country, and a merchant went to the border with a large pile of gold and silver?

What do you want?

Therefore, these gold and silver are in the name of Lu Wangfu, which is equivalent to the guarantee of Lu Wangfu as his private property, and then sent to Jinzhou.

After that, Ambassador Yang's itinerary was relatively normal.

They went all the way north, along the canal, but at this time this section of the canal was still not navigable, and after the Yellow River burst, it was poured into Ansan Lake, which was brought by the Yuan Dynasty to maintain navigation, but now the Yellow River water sediment that has been poured into it is quickly silted.

The canal is blocked here.

This part of southwest Lu is the watershed of the north and south of the river, in order to maintain a canal through, and must maintain a river channel with sufficient water depth, forcibly change the natural flow direction, from the year of the Huan Wen Northern Expedition, in this area to carry out the project, until the Yongle years to carry out the Nanwang water diversion project, to solve this problem, but the price is that the entire southwest of Lu all to serve this river.

The people of the entire southwest of Lu have to pay for the magnates in the capital to eat the rice in the south of the Yangtze River.

After the flood, the canal has to release water to exacerbate their disaster, because the water is too large to easily form rapids and affect the safety of boats, after the occurrence of drought, all the river water must be injected into the canal to ensure the depth of the canal, and then all the river gates that can be released for irrigation are closed.

What the common people want is the other way around!

But in turn, it affected the magnates in the capital to eat.

So in the end, this part of southwest Lu became a scar that was difficult to heal in the Ming Dynasty until the end of the Ming Dynasty, and then continued to intensify in the Qing Dynasty.

However, at this time, because Zhu Yuanzhang attaches more importance to shipping, so the canal is of limited value to him, and the inland river transport volume to Beiping is not high, and Cao Yun refers to the transportation that converges from all over the city to the capital, and Nanjing happens to be in the center of the water transport network, and it is also downstream, no matter where the water transport is, it can be easily reached. Nanjing, as the capital, can be said to be the least expensive option to maintain, Beiping is just a border fortress, there is no need to maintain such a high-cost river for this purpose, and then it is even less necessary to dredge Ansan Lake for this purpose.

After all, the North must first have a sufficient population.

After crossing Ansan Lake, Yang Feng and his entourage can board the boat, although their land travel speed is not slow, but the boat is more comfortable than walking.

And to the north is downstream.

However, the further north you go, the smaller the population, and after the Qing Dynasty, it can basically be said to be a wilderness, that is, there can be people around those towns, and most of the places are barren, and even if they are population, most of them are immigrants from the south, and most of them are military households.

It is very consistent with the poor population of the Northern Parallel Province at this time.

After all, with a population of 1.5 million, and a combination of men, women, and children, it would be good to be able to barely fill the route from Baoding to Henan in the west.

In this way, until Tianjin, or the name of Zhigu at this time.

Direct selling.

"Master Yang, are we going to Beiping or Yongping?"

The guide hired by Yang Feng asked him with a smile on his face, who was admiring the collision of the tide.

This guide named Li Fu is also a veteran, but now his son is taking over, he injured his arm and can no longer fight, Yang Feng's employment is high-paid, and he will be given ten taels of gold when he dies, so of course he is very willing to follow him out, even if he really dies, he will leave ten taels of gold for his children and grandchildren, and other hired military households are basically the same psychology, Yang Fengming said that this trip is very dangerous, maybe he will die.

But......

He gave so much!

Isn't it that there is a possibility of death, these military households were originally going to prepare for the battlefield, and they don't need to care about this problem at all.

"Is it easy to go to Yongping Road?"

Yang Feng asked.

On the Haihe River in the east, a small sea boat is coming on the tide.

At this time, the tide of the Sancha River in Tianjin is fierce, and it can reach Yangcun all the way, but the tide is not the three apex of Sanyang, Yangcun, Yangliuqing, Yangfengang, and Tianjin tide, and the sea boat can easily arrive here by the tide, and then unload the goods in a series of official warehouses on the north bank. This is the end of the shipping to Beiping, and then the transportation to Beiping will be changed to a small boat, this transportation has been very prosperous since the Yuan Dynasty, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, most of the famine starved to death of hundreds of thousands, Emperor Yuan Shun was ready to give up most of the capital to run away, fortunately Zhang Shicheng for many years, every year by sea more than 100,000 stone rice to him, so that Emperor Yuan Shun did not run away in advance.

Emperor Yuan Shun also sent ministers to Zhang Shicheng to collect grain and sea capital, it can be said that Zhang Shicheng's sea supply was the main reason why the Yuan Dynasty was able to hold Xu Da north.

Otherwise, they didn't have to wait for Xu Da, they would have abandoned Dadu a long time ago.

Therefore, Zhang Shicheng said that Zhang Shicheng made the greatest contribution to resist the yuan?

"It's not easy to go, it's easy to say anything else to the north, it's sparsely populated, and there is water everywhere, reeds are swinging, and even ferries are not easy to find in some places, that is, some stove households along the coast are drying salt, and they have to be inhabited until Luanzhou."

Li Fu said.

"What if you take a boat by sea?"

Yang Feng said.

"It's okay to take a boat, go north after going to sea, stick to the coast to Jinzhou, it takes a lot of time, if the wind direction is good, the wind direction is not good, then it is not possible, now it is late autumn, the north wind has risen, I don't know if there can be a south wind again, I want to go more slowly, but take Beiping all the way is a big road, although it is faster to go around."

Li Fu said.

"Then ......"

Before Yang Feng finished speaking, he looked at the river in amazement.

The ship was passing not far away, and a familiar figure on deck was looking at him with a smile on his face......

"Ambassador Yang, why are you dressed like this, what about your flowered clothes?"

Zhang Fu said with a smile.

Yang Feng looked at him angrily.

"Aren't you serving your king in the capital? How did you get here? ”

He said.

"Your Majesty has a decree to give my king a hundred new artillery, escorted by Zhang, by sea, with my king to lead the troops to Liaodong, with the king of Liao to patrol the border to test the artillery, and to appease the female direct and other departments, straight to Nuer Gancheng, in order to cut off the road to the east of the remnant Yuan, in addition to His Majesty's holy decree also said, let you lead the way to my king, and you will not return until Nuer Gancheng."

Zhang Fu said.

So, Zhu Yuanzhang just asked Zhu Di to sweep the Jurchens?

Therefore, this is also the reason why he rewarded the Liaodong army in advance, he really had a grudge and didn't stay overnight, so he knew how his Ming Dynasty died, so he hurried to sweep it in advance.
