"Teach?" Luo Fangbo was stunned, "How to teach?" Is there still a school to be founded? ”

Emperor Zhu smiled.

"Naturally, there is no need to set up any schools, but I will issue an order to let local magistrates and prefects come to Songjiang Mansion and Guangzhou Prefecture in batches to study and inspect, and in addition, the Association for the Promotion of Industry and Commerce will compile teaching materials for them, take classes, and study!"

"From now on, my official of the Ming Dynasty must have the string of industry and commerce in his head!"

Emperor Zhu said.

Letting Luo Fangbo do this matter was naturally well thought out.

Because Luo Fangbo has the experience of traveling in the South Seas, and has been the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty for so many years.

With experience, prestige, and guidance on the work of those magistrates, no one dared to say anything.

And there's not much he has to do.

Emperor Zhu has already begun to organize the compilation of textbooks.

The performance appraisal of metropolitan magistrates is also mainly based on "GDP".

If the magistrate of the Ming Dynasty wants to be promoted, he must concentrate on developing the local economy.

And now the best place to develop in Daming.

It belongs to Songjiang and Guangzhou.

These two places, on the one hand, are because of the tradition of industry and commerce, and on the other hand, they are the estuaries of China's two largest runoff rivers, and are the leading areas of the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta, so they have excellent locations.

Guangzhou is the place where Emperor Zhu started, and now it is the southern capital of the Ming Dynasty, and it is already prosperous in industry and commerce.

The Shanghai county of Songjiang Prefecture was circled by Emperor Zhu.

Shanghai County was promoted to Shanghai, and the entire city of Shanghai administratively belonged to Songjiang Prefecture, but economically and financially directly under the Ming Dynasty, it was regarded as a "city with separate planning".

With the strong investment of the Ming royal consortium, Shanghai soon became the fastest economic development area in the entire Ming Dynasty.

In this day and age.

There is no ten-mile ocean.

However, there are a large number of factories that have sprung up on both sides of the Huangpu River, and a large number of poor people from the two rivers who have come to Shanghai from all over the country to beg for a living.

They will all be old Shanghai in the future.

It's all just Bonin, and they have a face.

It's just that Shanghai is full of "urban villages" where workers gather, which really has nothing to do with the later foreign atmosphere.

And there is a high probability that it will never be touched.

Because it will become one of the largest industrial areas in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the starting point for exporting industrial products to the outside world.

Here, it will forever be branded as an "industrial city".

Engage in industry.

Naturally, it is impossible to be foreign.

Workers don't like to drink coffee either, and most of them are pancakes with green onions, or Hunan dishes with heavy oil and salt—manual labor, which means more carbohydrates and salt.

Compared to Shanghai, which is full of urban villages.

Guangzhou in this era has a little "foreign atmosphere".

Because this place belonged to the Ming Dynasty earlier, and Guangzhou City is different from Shanghai, Guangzhou City originally had many people, and the factories were built at the mouth of the Pearl River, Guangzhou played more of the role of a central city, and did not see much industry, but a large number of commercial banks and banks were built here.

It has become a gathering place for a large number of companies and headquarters.

It has become the center of the financial industry in Daming.

In addition, in Guangdong, there are many nobles, many meritorious heroes, and many veterans who made a fortune as soldiers for Emperor Zhu.

Guangzhou is the thousand-year-old capital of Guangdong, and the status of the provincial capital is unshakable.

In recent years, Guangzhou's real estate has been booming.

At least the average person can't afford to buy a house in Guangzhou.

A group of wealthy people gathered, and Guangzhou's consumer culture also developed.

As a result, Guangzhou has become the fashion capital and consumption capital of the Ming Dynasty.

If someone looks at the current Guangzhou and Shanghai from the future, I am afraid that there will be a little time and space disorder.

The two places actually changed places

Of course, Shen Song, Bai Ning, Wu Xinzhong, Du Ruchong and his entourage who came to Guangzhou would never know this.

Emperor Zhu wanted to send his magistrates to Shanghai and Guangzhou for inspection.

I didn't expect it.

Shen Song and Bai Ning went to Qing Yu before their trip, but they first went from south to north, from the northern capital to the degree and then to the central capital, and then to Songjiang Mansion, and now to Guangzhou Mansion.

If it weren't for the prosperity of the transportation industry in the Ming Dynasty, if you had to put it in the past and walk on two legs, I am afraid it would be impossible to walk these places for many years.

But that's no longer the case.

With the unification of the world, the canal connects the north and the south, the Yangtze River shipping communicates the east and west, at least the river transportation network of the Han provinces is very extensive, in addition, the Ming Dynasty does not prohibit the sea, and the coastal shipping is also quite developed.

This, coupled with the progress of the shipbuilding industry and the frequent population movements of the Ming Dynasty, promoted the development of shipping and passenger transportation.

From Zhongdu, it took only five days to go directly to Guangzhou by boat.

Wu Xinzhong and Du Ruchong are now very famous, but everyone knows that they have offended Emperor Zhu, so there are no high-ranking officials and nobles to contact them.

Isn't it unpleasant to find yourself?

On the contrary, Shen Song, who missed the Qing Dynasty, was very interested in these scholars who dared to oppose Emperor Zhu, took the initiative to contact them, and also took Wu Xinzhong and Du Ruchong to Guangzhou south.

Although Guangzhou is the southern capital, because the wars and major problems of the Ming Dynasty in recent years are in the north, the Ming Emperor rarely comes.

In addition, there are many rich people, many nobles, strong consumption and long distance from the imperial court.

So much so that the atmosphere in Guangzhou seems too "free".

All kinds of civic cultures such as opera, which serve the urban class, have developed very prosperously.

There are also quite a few newspapers.

And I dare to write it.

Anyway, with the relaxation of the Ming Dynasty's clamping on public opinion, the local public opinion atmosphere will naturally become much easier.

All sorts of tabloids appeared.

Among them, the most popular ones are, of course, some spring palace pictures, H and other things.

As long as this thing is not banned, there must be a very large market.

Of course, not all of them are old people.

There are also some newspapers that serialize in newspapers in order to increase sales.

Recently, the popular ones are some "exotic adventure classes".

The content is nothing more than the commoners in the mainland, adventuring to wild places abroad, getting gold and silver at every turn, and having beautiful things that foreign princesses throw into their arms at every turn.

Although the routines are all similar.

However, it has also greatly satisfied the spiritual pursuit of the masses.

It's selling well.

Now Bai Ning is holding a newspaper and reading it with relish, which is written about the story of a young man in Guangzhou who went to Australia to discover a big gold mine and made a fortune.

"Is there really a gold mine in Australia?"

After reading the last chapter, Bai Ning put down the newspaper unsatisfied, and secretly scolded the dog author in his heart for being out of chapter.

Suddenly I saw a long queue ahead.

"That's it."

Before Bai Ning could react, someone stuffed a flyer over.

"I went to Australia to dig gold mines, I went to Australia to make a fortune!!"
