There are two options for going out of Gyeonggi and arriving south to Tianjin, one is to enter Shandong, take the land through Qingzhou Mansion, Laizhou Mansion, and enter Dengzhou Mansion, and the other is to enter the sea from Tianjin and land in Dengzhou Mansion through Bohai Bay.

Zhu Jianji is actually a little afraid of the sea, probably a deep-sea phobia.

Although the Bohai Bay is not deep.

Moreover, the ship used by the Son of Heaven to travel was unusually strong, but he still did not take the sea route.

You can stop by and inspect the route.

With the expansion of overseas trade, the coastal cities of Daming have developed not only in Fujian, Guangdong, and Zhejiang, but also in the port cities of Shandong, which have seen a booming scene of sea trade industry blowout, and the prosperity of coastal cities can even be comparable to that of Gyeonggi.

Therefore, Zhu Jianji should inspect and give important instructions on the economic reform in these places.

After all, the path that Daming is taking now needs him at the helm.

However, when he returned, Zhu Jianji had to take the sea route, so that he could get to Xuanfu as soon as possible.

Inspect all the way.

During the inspection, Zhu Jianji found that although the maritime trade in various places developed well, it was basically through the commercial houses to buy porcelain, tea and silk from all over the country, and Shandong mainly carried out Shu embroidery trade with foreign countries.

Because it is not Shandong's own specialty industry, it can only be regarded as a middleman.

Profits are still high though.

But the outlook is limited.

Therefore, Zhu Jianji quickly made an important instruction, asking the Shandong Chengxuan Political Envoy Department to communicate with the Ministry of Agriculture as soon as possible, and use the apple seeds brought back from overseas trade to plant a large number of them in the area around Laizhou Capital, and strive to become the main product of maritime trade in the future.

Laizhou is part of Yantai in later generations.

And there is a Yantai apple in Shandong's specialty.

It's just that it's the 15th century, and apples have not yet been introduced to China on a large scale, and only the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has used the Silk Road to bring back seeds from Central Asia and West Asia, and is cultivating and developing planting techniques.

However, Zhu Jianji vaguely remembered that Shandong was the Yindian Garden of various agricultural products.

There are Dezhou grilled chicken, Dong'e Ejiao, green tea, yam, etc., well, at present, the black ceramics in Longshan are also good, these can develop rapidly, forming Shandong's own trade specialties.

Instead of relying on Shu embroidery and Jiangxi ceramics to make the cake of sea trade.

After this inspection, Zhu Jianji found that it was too wise to set up the Ministry of Agriculture and establish the Academy of Agricultural Sciences - in this era, there are very few industrial products that can be traded by sea.

Porcelain, tea, and silk, which really occupy a dominant position in the maritime trade, will sooner or later reach saturation among the middle and upper classes overseas, and the only products that will face the ordinary people overseas will be agricultural products.

And in this era, agricultural products are also the most important materials.

Therefore, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences should cultivate a large number of various fruits, grains and wheat and other crops, which can not only meet the needs of the domestic surge population, but also make maritime trade more abundant.

Along the way, accompanied by the officials of the Shandong Chengxuan Political Envoy Department, he soon arrived at Dengzhou Mansion.

Dengzhou Mansion is also a city to welcome.

The whole city is like a great enemy.

It's not that it's because of the tense situation, but because Dengzhou Mansion has always been one of the key targets of Japanese invasion, and there are many Japanese people in Dengzhou Mansion who have planted or directly bought anti-bone boys as fine works.

Even if Japan is now in the chaos of the Warring States, and there is the Dashun Dynasty as a-stirring stick in Japan, Shandong does not dare to be careless.

The anti-Japanese soldiers of the coastal guards poured out.

Cooperate with the brocade guard.

Ensure that His Majesty the Emperor Guang'an is safe at every step, and never let the situation of "the emperor is safe in one step, and the husband has 100,000 green blood", in other words, not to give the Japanese a chance to do a little bit of detail!

He first guided the work in the Dengzhou Mansion.

The work of Dengzhou is more complicated.

It is necessary not only to firmly develop maritime trade, improve the economy of the province, but also to ensure the operation of the giant Dengzhou Shipyard, and to provide all-round services for Dengzhou Shipyard.

After Zhu Jianji learned more about it, he gave it to the prefect of Dengzhou

I highly rated!

He is a capable local magistrate.

Shen Yuanxin, the prefect of Dengzhou, was born in a poor family, Jingtai was a second-class jinshi in two years, and his career career of twenty-one years is now the prefect of Dengzhou Prefecture, and his career is not smooth.

It can even be said that the career is unsuccessful.

But Shen Yuanxin did not complain.

Instead, he is diligent and diligent in governing political affairs in Dengzhou Mansion, honest and loving the people, and has a good reputation in Shandong.

After the Ming Dynasty went to the road of industry, Shen Yuanxin was the first to lead the people of Dengzhou to join the tide of overseas trade in Shandong, and the government led the purchase of porcelain, tea and silk throughout the country.

Rich people make more money.

is willing to listen to Shen Yuanxin's words.

Therefore, under Shen Yuanxin's appeal, wealthy people who owned a large amount of land often gave tenants rent free, so that the people's lives could be easier, and at the same time, the people could also participate in various works of overseas trade and earn a salary to improve their living standards.

[In view of the general environment,

Because Dengzhou Mansion is in the forefront of overseas trade, and its unique business cooperative model reduces internal friction, everyone is harmonious and wealthy, making the business atmosphere of the entire Dengzhou Mansion excellent.

Many wealthy and powerful people in Shandong have come here to join the business cooperatives.

This has further contributed to the inflow of people.

Coupled with Zhu Jianji's strategic layout, after the restart of the Dengzhou Shipyard, a large number of workers flowed in, as well as the surrounding supporting personnel, which made the population of the entire Dengzhou Mansion skyrocket again.

Population is economy.

Dengzhou Mansion has been really rich in recent years.

And Shen Yuanxin is not only a magistrate, after all, he is also a second-class jinshi, full of military books, from the Shandong Capital Division and Shandong Chengxuan Political Envoy Department to know some of the inside stories of Dengzhou Shipyard, Shen Yuanxin believes that sooner or later Dengzhou Shipyard will be large-scale construction, and a huge amount of steel and other materials will be needed at that time, so the official road must be improved.

Therefore, Shen Yuanxin persuaded the Commerce and Trade Cooperation Association to let the Commerce and Trade Cooperation Association make a large amount of money, and in the name of the Dengzhou government, he borrowed a million taels from Daming Bank, and took the initiative to find the Road Traffic Department of the Ministry of Industry, and asked for the cooperation of the Road Traffic Department.

Now this official road has been opened to traffic.

After Zhu Jianji learned about these circumstances, he was full of praise for Shen Yuanxin.

I feel that this person is just a prefect, and he is talented.

Now Jane is in the heart of the emperor.

Shen Yuanxin is destined to rise.

Zhu Jianji asked the Shandong Chengxuan Political Envoy Department, and they all felt that Shen Yuanxin had the ability and foresight to serve as the political envoy and take the helm for the development of the entire Shandong.

Zhu Jianji said that he would go back to order the officials to test his merits and be promoted next year.

He was relieved.

I don't dare to expect the local officials of the Ming Dynasty to be like Shen Yuanxin, but as long as such a group of people appears, it means a trend: the industrialization of the Ming Dynasty has entered the city and has learned to walk on its own.

In other words, it does not need to be forcibly promoted, it can also develop on its own, as long as this process is not interrupted, as Peking University and Tsinghua University cultivate more talents, maybe a few decades later, Daming will enter the industrial age by itself.

This is called evolution, and he, the Son of Heaven, acts as a catalyst.

The self-development of industrialization is the demand of the times.

It is also the inevitability of the times.

Very good!

After that, accompanied by the prefect of Dengzhou and the prefect of Tongzhi, and under the guidance of Li Shunda, the director of Dengzhou Shipyard, he went to the shipyard's base by the sea.
