Hang Min nodded on the side, "Your Majesty makes sense, if we continue to improve the level of medical care and increase food production, if we don't count the Indochina Peninsula and Mobei, our population may exceed 20,000, well, 200 million."

The unit of "100 million" has long been clarified in the "Three Series Books".

Zhu Jianji was happy, "200 million?"

200 million less.

Based on China's geographical conditions, coupled with the Indochina Peninsula as a backyard blood transfusion, and the productivity of this era, it is more appropriate for the population of the Ming Dynasty to remain at about 500 million.

A huge population provides a huge amount of taxes, a huge amount of talent.

Maintain the world's leading position in the Ming economy and military.

I don't want to talk about this problem, anyway, the population is growing naturally, as long as the Ministry of Agriculture does not pull the hips, there will basically be no food crisis, and even if there is a food crisis, the crisis will be transferred to the Indochina Peninsula.

It doesn't matter how many Taoist friends in Indochina starve to death, as long as they don't starve to death in poor Dao.

To Chen Xundao: "These increases, coupled with the new official roads and railways, can the household department support it? If Chen Shangshu feels that he can't support it, he will say it as soon as possible, so as not to delay my plan."

The implication is that if you can't do it, you will abdicate and make way for Xian.

It's a bit tough.

What else can Chen Xun do?

I had to nod, "Tobu should do his best to protect His Majesty's grand feat!"

Zhu Jianji nodded with satisfaction.

He said: "The construction of the official road is basically planned in this way, and the Ministry of Industry can make small-scale revisions according to the actual situation and under the big plan of me, but it needs to be reported to me for approval, and in addition, the Ministry of Industry will have a heavy task in the next few years, and it also needs to increase the number of personnel appropriately."

Hang Min commanded.

Zhu Jianji continued: "Hang Shangshu, remember, the Ministry of Industry's next work focus is to make every effort to build official roads, and at the same time, use up the resources and productivity that can be used at present, as much as possible to excavate gold, copper, iron and coal mines in the Indochina Peninsula to make up for domestic demand, under this basic requirement, the Ministry of Industry can spare no effort to develop the transportation system, such as trains, which is currently produced as fast as possible, the better, imagine that if there is turmoil in the Indochina Peninsula, I only need 200 trains with ten carriages in China, To be able to put 200,000 troops into the Indochina Peninsula in half a month, such a powerful control is such a magnificent thing."

Hang Min was surprised, "A train has ten carriages and can hold a thousand people?"

Zhu Jianji smiled, "Of course, this is still the case of our backward train technology, if we continue to develop train technology later, and after the railway is laid, it will be okay for a train to fit 3,000 people!"

Hang Min's spirit suddenly lifted up, "Then we must go all out to develop the train, and Wechen will start to prepare after he goes back."

Zhu Jianji said: "There is another thing, and it is also the most important, that is, the chemical group in charge of Yu Kang is still developing the refining process of black oil, if this project is developed, it is no exaggeration to say that Daming will enter an era that you can't imagine, of course, I don't dare to think about it, because it is likely to take decades of research and development to solve the refining process of black oil, do your best, it should be a foundation for future generations."

Hang Min sighed.

He really couldn't think of any other use for black oil besides burning, and His Majesty also said that it would not produce results without decades of research and development, and such a project was too illusory.

So Hang Min didn't pay much attention to it.

The chemical group is just a group of alchemists, who have developed in the past few years, and they are only sixty-seven people, and after changing to develop black oil, it has been one or two years, and there have been no results.

On the contrary, some new metal materials developed by the members of the chemical industry group in their leisure time have improved the steelmaking process a lot.

Zhu Jianji actually doesn't have extravagant hopes.

Anyway, I just try my best to do it, and whether the refining of oil can succeed in the end is up to the destiny of God.

To Chen Xundao: "Prepare for the Ministry of Households, after this year's official examination, officials from all over the country, including all officials in the Indochina Peninsula, Liaodong and Northeast China, will have a lot of year-end performance awards, which adds up to a lot of money

The amount of money must be paid on time, well, the household department is paying salaries now, isn't it rice, oil noodles and the like?"

Chen Xundao: "I have long followed His Majesty's wishes and issued Daming treasure banknotes."

Zhu Jianji nodded, "This is the best, after this year's year-end performance is issued, I am also benevolent and righteous, giving the domestic moths the greatest leeway, it can be said that in terms of the income and year-end performance issued by the imperial court, no matter what level of officials, they can live a rich life by relying on their salaries and year-end performance, just like this, they still have to be corrupt, then I really can't bear it, next year after the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple sink to the place, a sustained anti-corruption action will be carried out throughout the country, up to the local political envoys, down to the county, are all in the process of being cleared, this matter ...... The Nine Secretaries can breathe through each other, and the two Secretaries understand what I mean, right?"

In recent years, he has been committed to the development of foreign expansion, industry, economy, and agriculture, and has neglected the rule of officials.

There should be a lot of moths in the place.

Jin Yiwei actually has a lot of information over there.

But it's not good to be beaten to death with a stick, after all, Zhu Jianji thinks that he doesn't have the iron blood of Taizu, so let the court reveal some news to the local officials, and clearly tell them that I can not be held accountable for corruption in the past, and now I have vigorously improved the year-end performance, which is enough to make you worry-free for the rest of your life.

Doesn't peel daylilies.

But cutting off a bunch of heads is still necessary, and it can also clear some of the obstacles to land reform - the local officials, who are basically the local magnates and landlords.

This group is likely to oppose land reform.

At that time, anti-corruption and land reform will be promoted at the same time, and for the landlords who oppose land reform and do not change their will, they will just use their corruption to make a fuss.

Kill two birds with one stone.

In the next five years, the general direction of the ministries, temples, supervisors, and departments has been clearly explained to their principals, and the next few days will be the discussion of details and implementation plans.

There is another matter, the construction of the city that never sleeps in the country, which involves the construction of many huge dams of the Royal Power Company, and it is necessary to discuss with Lu Chunjing, the person in charge of the Royal Power Company.

And Lu Chunjing is still inspecting the site of a second dam outside Gyeonggi.

I won't return to Beijing until the Spring Festival.

So there's no hurry.

Zhu Jianji is also tired, it's not too early, as the Son of Heaven, you still have to have your own private life, and said to the two Shangshu: "That's all for today, the next five years are the five years for my Ming Dynasty to digest the Indochina Peninsula and Mobei, and it is my first five-year plan, and I hope you can work together with me to seek a new future for the Ming Dynasty!"
