In the year of the catastrophe, we will help each other in the same boat and tide over the difficulties together.

When the "Daming Forum" published an eye-catching title on the front page, many people immediately smelled the meaning of the mountain rain coming.

In ancient times, there was an ancient poem that "Zhumen wine and meat stink, and the road has frozen bones", although the article in the newspaper did not quote it, but between the lines, there were many criticisms and criticisms of the clans, nobles and other generations.

Gorgeous houses, groups of servants, and luxurious lives...... If you rely on your own labor or business income, then your enjoyment is justified.

But what about you, lying on the merits of your ancestors, or because of your identity and blood, you can get it without hard work, and you can lead the court with peace of mind, which is all the people's fat and people's ointment.

When quelling the Liao rebellion, so; This is still the case when the catastrophe strikes. Where can we see the consciousness of solidarity with the country?

Public opinion first is the emperor's usual method. Obviously, the emperor is going to attack the clan and the nobles.

In the following issues, articles were published in succession, that is, numerical examples were listed, and the burden of the lords and nobles of the clan to the state was listed.

The gentleman's ze, the fifth and beheaded. Whether it is counted from Taizu or Chengzu, the court has already been regarded as benevolent and righteous.

The continuous publication in the newspaper has put great pressure on the clan and the nobles, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as panicked.

It's not that I don't know, especially the clan, the growth of the number of people, and the expenditure of the imperial court, only from the Wanli period, are shocking.

In the long run, sooner or later, the Ming Dynasty's finances will collapse and be eaten by the clan. Even if you can support it, you can't do anything.

The series of articles not only clearly exposed the harm of the nobles of the clan, but also made the emperor's painstaking efforts public.

Zongxue, funds, exchanging officials with knights, three years of money to change from other businesses, etc., let everyone know that the emperor tried his best for you, but you didn't get in the oil and salt.

The repeated bombardment of public opinion soon pushed the clan and the noble group to the opposite side.

Civil officials and ordinary people are not used to looking down on these incompetent people who are idle, sitting and waiting for death; Most of the newly promoted generals are trained in martial arts, relying on military merit promotion, and they have no feelings for the nobles.

Of course, another of the emperor's means is to fight and pull. There are children who serve in the army and perform well, and they are honored by name in the newspaper.

Almost simultaneously with public opinion was the operation of the garrison, and the troops in all localities, including the Beijing camp, were ordered to conduct a one-month intensive training, the most important content of which was training.

People know who the training is for. The vassal clans of all over the country also understood that this was a deterrent, and it was the emperor who was holding a knife in front of their eyes!

If you don't accept it, the emperor is ruthless, he really doesn't care about his reputation, he doesn't want to be cheeky, and he really makes a dead hand!

The thunder of the purge of officialdom is still fresh in everyone's memory. How many officials have killed and exiled, what Confucianism, what celebrities, what officials and gentry, they have no mercy at all.

At that time, the fierce battle in Liaodong was in full swing, and the money was like flowing water, and the emperor was crazy because of lack of money.

Now it's a catastrophe, and the emperor is about to start picking up money and wool again!

What do you think and think, I have made up my mind to clean up you parasites.

In November of the ninth year of the Apocalypse, the Thousand Autumn Festival, not only the Beijing division was decorated with lanterns, but various celebrations were carried out lively. The government offices in various parts of the Ming Dynasty also did their best to congratulate the emperor on his birthday.

Even Shaanxi, where the province is in a severe drought, has celebrations. Each family is ten catties of rice and a can of sea fish.

Inland, or remote in the northwest, it is the first time that you can eat sea fish. In the past, there may have been dried fish, but the taste is not comparable to the name "canned".

Giving canned rice and hair to the people of Shaanxi was the emperor who pulled money from the internal treasury, ruthlessly bought a wave of people's hearts, and helped the Shaanxi government to stabilize the people's hearts in the disaster.

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!"

"Thousands of years are prosperous, and longevity is boundless!"

"The people burn incense and pray for the good health of our emperor's holy body......"

The emperor heard Liu Ruoyu's recitation, just smiled happily, ordered him to put it away and store it, and rewarded him with a bottle of canned fruit.

At the suggestion and guidance of the emperor, the Academy of Sciences repeatedly studied and experimented, and finally succeeded in developing a method for preserving food for a long time without deterioration.

In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, high-temperature and high-pressure sealing. After the development of the microscope, the concept of microorganisms was no longer a fantasy.

The specific operation is to process the food, then put it into bottles and cans, heat it in boiling water, and plug it tightly with a cork while it is hot, or tie and seal it with oiled paper, wax, and thread, and seal it with mud like making wine.

The emperor took out part of the funds and invested the funds obtained from some of the nobles of the clan, and jointly established three canneries in Lushun, Chongming and Shantou in joint ventures with the General Association of Maritime Commerce, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, and the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

The varieties of canned food are mainly fish that are most readily available along the coast and fruits from the south, and in the purchase order of the Ministry of War, canned fish has been listed as one of the military supplies.

And the invention of canned food in history was because of war, because of the trade of the Great Voyage. The supply of food for the army and the need for fruits and vegetables for seafarers at sea for a long time were all important factors in the emergence of canned food.

In order to reduce costs, today's cans are glazed with ceramic texture, and only glass jars are used for a small amount of tribute.

The distribution of canned food to the victims of the disaster in Shaanxi was not only the emperor's benevolence, but also the first batch of royal purchases to support the cannery's move.

From luxury goods to ordinary food, to exporting to make money, the way to go for canned food, the emperor knew it in his heart.

The significance of canned and compressed food, which will change the form of war transportation and logistics, is even more significant.

Moreover, the General Association of Maritime Merchants is very optimistic about canned food, and has already set up factories in Qingdao, Hainan and Mekong provinces for their seafarers.

The emperor turned around and went to the side hall, but found the two little princesses holding canned fruits and eating happily.

"Father, you eat." The little princess licked her lips and picked up the can with only a little soup left.

The emperor smiled, took a silk handkerchief and wiped his daughter's mouth, and instructed: "After eating, you must rinse your mouth, and you can't eat too much, it will damage your teeth." ”

Uh-huh! The other little princess, who was eating canned food, nodded her head again and again, and agreed to eat happily.

There was only a large sand table in the side hall, but now there are more princess toys. There were small wooden horses, small carts, and balls made of fur. The palace people also often tidy up to avoid clutter in the house.

The emperor walked to the sand table, his eyes shifted, and he bet on the southwest.

The war on Burma, the biggest battle of the year, is also the emperor's greatest concern.

Although Burma's combat power is limited, it has geographical advantages, and the Ming army also has to face climatic problems.

In order to deal with the smelly miasma, the investment in this war is quite large. Mosquito nets, mosquito coils, tea, garlic, and various medicines are well prepared.

After the frost falls, the miasma will be eliminated and the mosquitoes will be eliminated, and the actions of the Ming army will be smoother.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. Just wait for the news from the front to see how much victory the soldiers can achieve and how much they will capture!
