Chapter 220: The True Brother of King Han

The civil and military ministers, His Royal Highness the Prince, all supported Xu Jingchang, and at this point, even Zhu Laosi couldn't stop it.

can only issue a decree, add Xu Jingchang Shaobao, the governor of Beiping military affairs, the governor of the nine sides, a should be given to military households, tribute trade, all by the Duke of Dingguo.

When this decree was issued, I dare not say that the government and the opposition were shocked, and it was also groundbreaking.

Entrust all the important towns of the nine sides to one person, even if the prince goes, it won't work. This is also the reason why Zhu Di wants to go north in person, theoretically only the Son of Heaven has this height.

But the courtiers were worried about moving the capital and were unwilling to work the people and lose money.

Zhu Di can't go against the will of the people, and Xu Jingchang is indeed capable, plus Queen Xu's reasons, it is impossible to say that Xu Jingchang is plotting against him.

Of course, there is a time limit.

If it's just a year and a half, nothing, if it's three or five years, or even longer, Xu Jingchang doesn't have two hearts, and the people below will also add to the chaos, and the courtiers won't be willing.

At that time, Zhu Di also had to go north in person......

At this time, Xu Jingchang only occupied the gap between the game between the Son of Heaven and the courtiers, not so much that he was in power, but that Mount Tai was at the top.

Zhu Gaochi knew this very well, and he specially ordered to tell Xu Jingchang about Yingtian as soon as possible.

"Cousin, those who can work harder. It's not that the eldest brother doesn't help you, it's really too expensive to move the capital, even if it's for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, you have to hold on, brother believes you! ”

……

"Believe in a fart, if you have a conscience, you should take the initiative to ask for a decree and come and deal with the affairs of Beiping with me. Now let me take the blame, what kind of brother are you! Shameless! ”

Xu Jingchang was scolding, and at this time, someone suddenly came in, "Dingguo Gong, His Royal Highness the King of Han asks to see him." ”

"King Han?"

Xu Jingchang was stunned, isn't Zhu Gaoxu in Yingtian?

How did he get here?

Anyway, Xu Jingchang was still very happy to meet him in Beiping, and took the initiative to come out to greet him.

When Zhu Gaoxu saw Xu Jingchang, he had a smile on his face.

"You know this time, right? I'm fucking different from the eldest and third, those two things are urinals with gold edges, just on that mouth! If something happens to you, I will come over in person and solve your problems. Say, what do you want me to do? Whether it's leading troops, or doing business, or borrowing money, I will help you. ”

At this moment, Xu Jingchang's heart was warm, really, his report was handed over, the imperial court decreed that Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, could arrive so quickly, he must have changed horses and not people, and he marched all the way, rushing over as fast as possible, looking at the dust and sand on his body, it can be seen.

At the critical moment, those who can stand up and help you carry things are the real brothers.

"His Royal Highness the King of Han, let's not talk about those who have or don't, I invite you to drink."

Xu Jingchang pulled Zhu Gaochu in, took out the wine, and asked Huang Yunfang to make a few side dishes, so that he could taste Miss Huang's craftsmanship, Zhu Gaochu was still the second person after Queen Xu, which shows Xu Jingchang's enthusiasm for him.

The two of them sat down and chatted freely, Zhu Gaoxu was indeed very physically fit, and he was already very tired after running such a long distance, but he still drank very well, and it didn't take long for Xu Jingchang to be half drunk...... Then Zhu Gaoxu said to Xu Jingchang: "I said Brother Xian, you put forward that trade proposal, does it really work?" What are you going to do? ”

Xu Jingchang had a smile on his face, "According to common sense, I won't say anything about this to anyone, but today I'm in a good mood, so I'll tell you...... I will not arbitrarily abolish the Beiping Guardhouse, on the contrary, I will convert the Guardhouse in the Beiping Land into a farm and pasture. ”

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Gaoxu stopped him, "What are you going to do?" ”

"This is not an obvious thing...... Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "At present, the guards in Beiping, thousands of officials, hundreds of officials, they seize the land of the annexed military households, produce food, and also make some workshops to fire pottery...... On the Shanxi side, there are also many businessmen who are smuggling and trafficking commercial goods. The advantage is that it can't be stopped, even if you raise the butcher's knife this time, you can kill a batch, but soon there will be a next batch, and sooner or later there will be a time when the court can't kill it. So the key to this matter is to find a new way. ”

"What's the solution?" Zhu Gaoxu leaned over and asked curiously.

Xu Jingchang was stunned and didn't continue, Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly poured him a glass of wine, "Drink, let's talk while drinking." ”

After this glass of wine, Xu Jingchang smiled, "My solution is to reorganize the guard and turn it into a farm...... For example, if you are a thousand-household official, and there are 100,000 acres of land under your rule, I will give these lands to you, a thousand-thousand-household...... It's the entire Thousand Households, not you. Then the hundred households, the general flag, the small banner, and the military households under your command will share the output of the thousand households with you, of course, the officials of the thousand households can take a little more, and the specific proportion can be discussed. For this thousand-household official, there must also be an evaluation, and if the ability is not good, he must be removed and replaced with a more competent one. ”

Zhu Gaoxu tried to understand, and gradually, he understood.

"Isn't this what I got in Zhexi!"

It turned out that western Zhejiang was flooded, and Zhu Gaoxu went over and changed rice to mulberry ...... He signed a contract with the common people, asking them to plant mulberry trees and provide raw silk.

And he also needs to find a way to ensure the price of raw silk and provide food, so as to avoid the people not being able to survive because of the high price of food.

Therefore, Zhu Gaochu selected a group of highly respected people from among the victims, who were responsible for the purchase and transportation of raw silk below, to ensure the quality of raw silk, and at the same time to connect with Zhu Gaoxu's side, food, money, and things that the people needed, they handed them over to the people, and then obtained a commission according to the transaction amount.

Think about it carefully, what Xu Jingchang wants to do is not to copy this set, and even it is more convenient here in Beiping, after all, there is already a complete health system here, and it seems that it is not impossible to change the health center into a farm.

has been in business for so long, and Zhu Gaoxu's views on some things are far keener than those of courtiers...... Otherwise, he wouldn't have rushed to Beiping.

Why is it said that the landlord clique, or the gentry bureaucracy, is so hateful that any development must overthrow them...... The problem is that the landlords do not produce and sit back and enjoy the results.

What is the construction of water conservancy, the improvement of technology, and the development of production...... None of these things, they will do.

Some people think that the landlords don't collect land rent according to the harvest, and the tenants produce more grain, so they have more land rent, so why not do it?

This is to think too well of the landlords, they earn not only land rent, but also usury!

It can even be said that land rent is only daily income, and usury printing money is their main source of profit.

Rent and lending complement each other.

If the yield of farmland is increased and the people are rich, who will borrow money?

If they don't borrow money, how can they get rich?

Collecting land rent and interest, since ancient times, has been the easiest way to make money, and it is also the most unenterprising and the most tricky.

There is such a group of people, and if you want to talk about development and a rich country and rich people, it is nonsense...... Because they are relying on the unlucky rentiers of the people, how can they allow the people to live a good life?

Zhu Gaoxu planted mulberry trees and woven silk in the south, which is how he fought with these people.

He relied on money to lend money, build workshops, buy raw silk, and train workers...... It's a lot of fun.

If it weren't for the fact that he was the King of Han, and Xu Jingchang was behind him, he still had the heavy responsibility of maintaining the operation of the treasure banknote, and he would not have been able to hold on to it now.

If this set can be implemented in Beiping, there is no doubt that it will bring in a large number of allies and greatly increase the strength in hand.

In the farm model, the military households have shares, although a little less, but they can still ensure survival...... In other words, if it is changed to a farm, it may be the debt of the entire farm, and it cannot be a debt of military households.

Because the low-level military households can't survive, they can go to other well-run farms...... To put it bluntly, he has changed from a tenant fixed here to a worker who sells his labor.

In this way, those guards will not be able to sit back and enjoy their successes and take advantage of them. They have to do what they can to make more money on the farm, so they can get a bigger share.

From drought and flood to harvest, it has become a blessing and a blessing in disguise...... Moreover, there is another advantage of this down, that is, ordinary military households cannot afford to raise livestock, but they can raise them on farms, and with livestock, the efficiency of farming and land reclamation will be greatly increased.

In addition, there is a hidden benefit of doing this, what is the motivation for external development?

It's nothing more than having more income, being able to get rich, and being able to make money.

Well done, the farm is not big enough, so what to do?

Pioneer north!

With money, in addition to farms, you can also engage in pastures, become bigger and stronger, and create brilliance.

"King Han, think about it, if you get it like this, the grain production in Beiping will definitely increase...... With grain, trade with the Mongol tribes could develop. With the money earned, we can arm the farm...... At that time, the combat power of the farm will definitely exceed that of the current guard. By the way, the border defense matter was also solved. Tell me, how about my solution? ”

"It's high, it's so high...... But I still don't quite understand, according to reason, you shouldn't stop the relocation of the capital. Does this have anything to do with relocation? ”

Xu Jingchang laughed, "King Han, how can you be confused, if the capital is moved, there will be hundreds of thousands of people in Beiping in an instant, and they are all powerful, they will definitely go around to occupy the land, let me ask you, can you still get a farm at that time?" What the farm needs is a vast and sparsely populated area, and it needs to be efficient enough. So I don't really care about fugitive soldiers. Because of what? We need to have one person do the work of three or five people, and then pay them double the salary, you know? ”

Zhu Gaoxu was dumbfounded, "I understand, I really understand!" When it comes to squeezing wealth, the virtuous brother is better! ”

Xu Jingchang sneered and drank a wine glass, "After hearing such a good thing, don't pour me wine." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly poured wine for Xu Jingchang, even to his father, he had never been so respectful.

But at this moment, someone suddenly broke in outside.

"Dingguo Gong, the big thing is not good, the Tatar Taibao Arutai led 50,000 troops to the south, threatening to avenge Duoyan Sanwei."

Xu Jingchang was still drunk and hazy in the last second, and in the next second, his eyes widened...... Something is going to happen!
