Jingtai fifty-seven years, the first month, the National Day.

Zhu Jianqi was angry in the East Palace: "What does the old man think, there are more than 4,000 Zen Huaxia Heroes, how much does it cost!" ”

"Sacrificing heroic spirits, do you need people to guard the tomb, choose one from among their descendants to be the tomb keeper, and you will have to raise a big family in the future."

"It's not about raising it for a year or two, it's about raising it for generations."

"More than 4,000 is more than 4,000 big families!"

"How much of a burden the center will have!"

"Sacrifice every year, spend money every year."

"Now that the fiscal revenue and expenditure are abundant, it is not short of this little money, but what about the future? There will always be a difficult time when this money becomes a regular expense. ”

"Last year, I built a railway for Kunlun Feng Zen, which cost hundreds of millions!"

"I sealed Zen on behalf of my father, and I spent more than 20 million yuan all the way!"

"It's money that shouldn't have been spent."

Zhu Jianqi was furious: "I came back and told the old man, but the old man scolded me for being a little family, he didn't belong to his family, and he didn't know that the finances were difficult." ”

The crown princess Yang comforted: "The old man is happy, and it is a good thing for the Ming Dynasty, and it is not a waste of money." ”

"Why doesn't it count?"

"To pay tribute to the heroic spirit, it is enough to pay tribute in one place, and if you pay tribute everywhere, you will have to spend maintenance costs in the future."

Zhu saw Qi was furious: "This year, the old man is going to canonize the honorable nobles, I persuaded a few words in the Heart Cultivation Palace, he said that I was unfairly rewarded and punished, let me get out." ”

"I am in charge of this family, I was scolded by the courtiers in the early days, and I was scolded by my father when I returned to the palace, my prince is not a person inside and out."

The Yang family asked people to come over and fan the fan to lower the fire for the prince.

Although it is winter, the temple is burning with earth dragons, and the four seasons are like spring.

"Just according to the old man." Yang comforted him.

Zhu Jianqi sprinkled the fire on her head: "You depend on him for everything, no wonder he loves you the most, at the banquet I always praised your daughter-in-law for having a great poetic talent, virtuous and filial, but I, inside and outside, am not a person, I am the family of the Ming Dynasty, everything depends on him, and the people of the world can't get by?" ”

"The prince is angry with His Majesty, what kind of anger is it with a concubine and a woman? Since the prince didn't like his concubines to chant poems against them, the concubines would not touch these elegant things in the future, but simply cut their nails and went to do rough work. ”

Yang wasn't used to him.

Although she is the crown princess, she is in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, the emperor likes her, and everyone in the world knows it.

Although she does not have martial arts, she is the first poet among women, and she has a lot of fans among the people.

Her influence is really greater than that of the crown prince.

Zhu Jianqi refused to bow his head, and said in a sullen voice: "If I can govern the country by composing poetry, I will also compose poetry, and what kind of country will I govern." ”

He's really angry today.

After the morning court, he was scolded by his father and made him kneel at the door for an hour before driving him back to the East Palace.

If it weren't for his son to intercede, it is estimated that the old man would not have let go.

The whole family was not treated well by him, and the emperor liked his daughter-in-law and grandchildren, so he hated his own son, as if he had picked it up.

He always thought that if I wasn't the eldest son, it would be better if I also went out to succeed the domain, and I didn't have to watch his father's face live at home.

Yang came back angrily: "The concubine doesn't get angry with you, and she doesn't live in the East Palace to suffer from your idleness, I'll go to Wanshou Palace to live with my son." ”

Yang has two daughters and a son, both of whom are married.

His son, Zhu Youchang, lives in Wanshou Palace.

Seeing that the Yang family was really leaving, Zhu Jianqi panicked, not to mention whether his father would scold him, this matter is stumbling, the New Year's Day, and the National Day, the double festival is over, the princess has gone home, how ugly it is to spread out.

"Madame, ma'am."

Zhu Jianqi hurriedly said two soft words: "I'm not confused by the old man." ”

He, the emperor, did not have so much credibility in the previous dynasty, and he was angry with his father in the harem, and he came back to scold his daughter-in-law, and his daughter-in-law did not deal with him, which was too wretched.

After being coaxed for two sentences, Yang's face showed a slight smile: "You, just fight with the old man, can you stand up to the old man?" Following the old man's wishes, serving his old man comfortably is more important than anything else. ”

"No, this shouldn't be done like this."

"The old man wants to play this today, and he wants to play that tomorrow, and he has to spend money everywhere."

"Daming seems to be full of flowers, opportunities everywhere, gold and silver everywhere, but don't take precautions, I'm afraid that this prosperous world will collapse if it can't be passed on to me."

Zhu Jianqi smiled bitterly: "And your son, that one is even more out of tune." ”

"Didn't the old man say that the Spring Festival, National Day, and New Year's Day should be held in a big way."

"That kid told the old man to hold a Chinese gala, select the best folk troupes, cross talk sketch masters, singing and dancing performances and other literary and artistic programs, and move them to the gala."

"In the Ming Dynasty and the major vassal states, on the same day, it will be jointly organized, the whole world will celebrate together, and all provinces will do it, and then the party will go from city to city for touring."

"Tell me, is this enough money for him to spend?"

"I see, he just wants to watch a play, is he so unreliable? How much does it cost to hold such a party? ”

Yang rolled his eyes wildly, the prince was in the eyes of the money.

No wonder the old emperor looked down on him, we can make money, we have to be able to spend money, and we can't get rich if we save money.

The son is not like him.

The son is a person who can spend money, but his earning ability doesn't seem to be good, but fortunately, the old man's family foundation is thick enough, uh, maybe enough for his son to lose, right......

"After he succeeds to the throne, I think this Ming family will be defeated by him sooner or later."

Zhu Jianqi was angry: "Madam, do you have the same opinion as me?" ”

Because of this, his father scolded him again.

His father supports his eldest grandson, as long as he spends money to do things for Daming, he will not lose this money.

He really wanted to get his wife's support so that he could suppress that kid.

That kid is so bad now, even his father dares to ignore it, he shouldn't let him go out of the palace to live, and his daughter-in-law is even more restless.

The old emperor couldn't help her, and he loved her so much that he didn't want to see her.

"The concubine thinks it's not a bad thing......"

Zhu Jianqi's face turned black directly, and he walked out directly, I wanted to put my head in the snow and calm down.

But the previous dynasty was more supportive of the crown prince.

They all felt that the emperor was too extravagant and wasteful.

In fact, the emperor is not lascivious to himself, and after the emperor is sixty years old, he will not eat cold things, including ice cubes, so the palace no longer spends money on ice cubes.

The emperor took out this money and used it as an earthquake relief fund.

When the emperor eats, he can save money, and it is generally used in almshouses to support orphans.

As soon as he went out, he saw Xie Qian hurrying over: "Prince, go and persuade Your Majesty, Your Majesty is whimsical again." ”

"What?" Zhu saw Qi excited, his father wouldn't spend a lot of money to hold any party, right?

"It's not about the party, the political envoy of Heilongjiang said that according to the prediction of geographers, the temperature in the northeast is more than ten degrees lower than the temperature at the same latitude."

"The reason is that the Greater and Lesser Khing'an Mountains cannot stop the cold snap from Siberia, which leads to very low temperatures in Northeast Asia."

"When the emperor heard this, he wanted to increase the height of the Xing'an Mountains in the northeast."

didn't wait for Xie Qian to finish speaking.

Zhu Jianqi's head buzzed: "How much does this cost?" ”

"The plan is 10 billion."

Zhu Jianqi covered his heart: "Doctor Xuan, I'm going to die here." ”

"Prince, don't say such unlucky words for the New Year."

"If you fall, there will be no one to advise Your Majesty."

Xie Qian smiled bitterly: "It's not a matter of money, Your Majesty wants to come out now, then the successful construction of the Zhonghua River has ruined the natural environment of Wusizhen, and has led to a great drought in northern India, changing the climate, and generally doing more harm than good." ”

"What Weichen is most worried about is that the cold snap is blocked, Northeast Asia is not cold, and the three provinces of Turkic, Tatar, and Yuerhai are easy to be completely frozen."

Zhu Jianqi smiled bitterly: "My father is uncomfortable if he doesn't toss for a day, why do you say it's so worry-free." ”

The two of them walked quickly to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Hearing the enthusiastic talk between the emperor and Zhu Youchang, the grandson, Zhu Jianqi's whole heart fell into the abyss.

It's over, his father was said to be not terrible, and his son was said to be the most terrible.

He's fifty years old, so he might be ahead of his father.

When his son succeeds to the throne, he will definitely follow his grandfather's route, can Daming be good?

He knows best how unreliable his son is, and it is estimated that the old man is kept in the dark by him.

Before he said that Taisun was unreliable, and he was reprimanded by the old man, saying that he knew a fart, and told him to hurry up.

"Prince, come, take a look at this secret music." Zhu Qiyu is in a good mood.

Zhu Jianqi said he didn't want to see it.

His son Zhu Youchang told him with great interest, but there was one more clause in his language, filling in the Bohai Bay and the Korean Bay, filling in the two provinces.

Then connect Sakhalin, Hokkaido, and the three islands of Wakoku.

The Qiongzhou Mansion must also be connected.

It is also necessary to build more islands in the Yanhai Sea, and use the islands and reefs to completely connect Borneo, so that the Ming Dynasty will become a big whole.

The direct benefit of adding the Xing'an Mountains is that the temperature in Northeast Asia will rise, and the already rich will become richer and more livable, and countless farmlands will be added.

The disadvantage is that the Turkic, Tatar, fishing seas, and even the four Mongolian provinces may be attacked by the cold snap for the second time, becoming extremely cold.

But these areas are of little value.

To give up is to give up.

According to Zhu Youchang's plan, it is estimated that 28 billion yuan will be invested, and it is planned to be built for 100 years, and the temperature in the northeast will be raised first.

Turning the Heijiliao Dynasty into a rich and livable place, because the two frontier provinces of Turkic and Tatar are lost, and the Bohai Bay and the Korean Bay are filled, two rich provinces can be added.

When the technology matures in the future, find a stretch of high mountains in the four border provinces and increase it to create a second northeast.

If the rich temperate provinces are exchanged for the cold border provinces, it is estimated that an additional 500 million people can be raised, which is cost-effective.

After the addition of Xing'anling, the temperature of Hebei, Henan, and North Korea will be raised, causing a bad environmental impact.

The drawbacks do exist.

Daming geographers conducted temperature surveys on all cities at the same latitude and found that only the northeast of Daming had the lowest temperature.

Because Siberia is a plain, cold currents from the Arctic can invade this continent at will.

A high mountain is needed to keep out the cold snaps.

As for the filled sand, where to find it, there are many deserts in the northwest.

Daming concrete technology is very mature, and the building has been able to build 11 floors, but there is no elevator, there are manual escalators.

In the fifty-fifth year of Jingtai, the first residential building of Daming was born, an 11-storey building.

The tallest building in the Ming Dynasty is the Qiongzhou Lighthouse, which is 109 meters high and is the highest lighthouse in the world.

There is technology, but also ability.

If the Zhonghua River can still be successfully built, what is the difficulty of adding the Xing'an Mountains and filling the Bohai Bay and the Korean Bay?

"Your Majesty, are you asking for the advice of your sons, or are you?"

Zhu Jianqi didn't finish his words.

Song Shu was snatched away by the old emperor: "It's very unpleasant to talk to you, Taisun, you tell him." ”

Zhu Youyu told his father what the emperor meant, and he spat at the stars, and he was more excited than the old emperor.

Zhu Jianqi knew that it was going to be bad.

"Xie Qian, if you don't need the money from the imperial court, can't you get the money out?" Zhu Qiyu was eager to try.

Fill in the two rich provinces, which is enough to offset the losses of the four northern provinces.

In fact, these four provinces are just strategic depth.

The total population of the four provinces has not exceeded 1 million.

Besides, it is possible to not only add the Xing'an Mountains, but also the mountains to the north, and it is better to create an Usz.

"Your Majesty, it's not about money."

Xie Qian was a little speechless: "The center is freeing slaves, and you suddenly have to embark on a big project again, how many slaves do you need?" ”

"Your plan is for a hundred years, how many variables will there be in between?"

"Actually, the Northeast is pretty good now."

Zhu Qiyu was unhappy: "Da Ming didn't have this ability before, and I didn't force it." Now that high-rise buildings can be built, what is the difficulty of reclamation? ”

"Raising some mountain ranges can make the northeast become the same climate as Henan, and if you raise the mountains north of the fishing sea, maybe Mongolia will also become a rich province."

"You're a bunch of brains!"

"I just like to lie on the merit book and enjoy it, don't you want to be a predecessor who planted trees?"

"I want to plant trees for Daming, but you have blocked it in every possible way, and you have said that you don't need to pay the money, I will pay it myself."

"It's just a few billion."

Xie Qian didn't hear the previous words, but heard the latter sentences.

Just a few billions?

How much money does the emperor have?

No one knows how much money the emperor has, not that the emperor has invested a lot in all walks of life, so no one knows how much money the emperor has.

Rather, the emperor was involved in the mining of gold and silver in the Americas, very much.

The central council has discussed that the gold in the hands of the emperor is estimated to be more than 700 tons, making him the richest emperor in the world.

Anyway, some people say that all that is buried in the Forbidden City is money.

That's true.

The cabinet also received the news, and under the emperor's palace of nourishing hearts, there was a huge treasure trove, which contained countless gold and silver treasures.

No, no silver deserves to be hidden here.

It's all top treasures.

This is not counting the treasures such as calligraphy, paintings, antiques, etc., those are placed in the two museums, and they are also the emperor's personal belongings, all surnamed Zhu.

Zhu Jianqi was also shocked, he didn't know how much money his father had.

Anyway, he knew that the emperor was throwing money into all walks of life with real money, and he didn't see the emperor poor at all.

Zhu Youyu squirmed his lips, grandpa is so rich, when it reaches him, is it good to be a loser quietly?

"Ahem."

Zhu Qiyu found that his wealth was exposed: "Zhuqing, I mean that it should be repaired. ”

"Your Majesty, are you sure that the 28 billion is all up to you?" Li Dongyang asked in a low voice.

"What nonsense, where did I get so much money?"

But the people of the temple of the heart did not believe it.

"Don't talk about money, this is a big thing for the sake of the people, money is not money, how vulgar." Zhu Qiyu diverted the topic.

"Your Majesty, there is still a shortage of 20 million for the special environmental management of Wu Sizhen, or will you come up with internal funds?" Liu Jian said with a shy face.

"If you can't do it, let Li Dongyang take over." Zhu Qiyu's face changed, the money was all said to be out of the treasury, so why should the internal funds come out.

"Your Majesty, look at what you said, Weichen came up, and he didn't have any money." Li Dongyang smiled evilly.

Zhu Qiyu's face turned black directly: "Prince, pull them out, I don't want to see them." ”

"Your Majesty, 10 million, 10 million."

Liu Jian said with a smile: "You have this money, and Weichen will help you find a way to do it." ”

"Get out, the party is the grandson's business, you let the grandson pay for it." Zhu Qiyu is not stupid, this time the money was paid, and the next time the cabinet will look for him, the emperor should not be the wronged leader.

Liu Jian looked at Taisun with bad intentions.

Zhu Youchang didn't dare to stand on the opposite side of the emperor's grandfather, he still wanted to inherit the Wanguan family wealth.

In the end, it was said that the emperor took out two million from the treasury before sending them away.

"Grandpa Huang, tell your grandson the truth, how much money does our family have?" Zhu Youyan was a little excited, a good day of being a loser is coming.

"There's a fart money, the court wants money here and that, private development also needs money, research and development also needs money, where do I get the money? Hurry up and get out, a little later, I'll chop you up and sell you for money. ”

Zhu Youchang dared to conclude that his grandfather must be rich.

He suddenly understood.

The old emperor spared no effort to support the vassal state, and those emperors of the vassal country, who were not filial to their father during the New Year's holidays, such as the Americas, Australia, and Africa, had the most gold, silver, jewelry, and diamonds.

As long as the old emperor hooked his fingers, they would keep sending them to the emperor.

Therefore, it seems that the vassal state did not give the Ming any benefits.

In fact, these benefits were given to the emperor.

But the old emperor did a good job of secrecy, and he didn't even know that the emperor was doing big business in the vassal country and making a lot of money.

The emperor was very interested in Jiaxing'anling.

He had already sent people to Siberia to investigate and see if there was a more suitable place to the north than the Khing'an Mountains.

The next morning, Zhu Jianqi and the ministers were all complaining.

thinks that Da Ming has no need to toss.

However, the emperor has already sent people to the northeast to investigate, and solicit opinions from the whole society, anyway, if the center wants to quarrel, then let the people of the world quarrel with each other and see what results can be achieved.

Sure enough, the content of the secret performance was exposed, causing heated discussions in the whole society.

The people of the Northeast want to live a warm life.

But the people of Hebei and Henan don't want to, it's hot enough in the summer, if they stop the cold snap from coming, will they be even hotter?

The people of the four Turkic provinces are resolutely opposed, they are accustomed to the cold life, and do not want to change their living environment.

As for filling the two bays, there is little opposition.

Some ecologists are worried about whether the reclamation of the bay will cause a loss of biodiversity and irreversible environmental impacts.

In recent years, the promotion of steam engines, the increase in factories, and the problem of sewage discharge have aroused the vigilance of the whole society.

In addition, the construction of the Zhonghua River has seriously damaged the good ecological environment of Wusizhen, and the center has spent a lot of money to control the environment in recent years.

Pollution has been the hottest topic in recent years.

The center is also spending money on governance, constantly issuing documents to solve pollution problems such as sewage and discharge, and even moving heavily polluting factories to Tianjin in order to protect the environment of Gyeonggi.

In the north of Zhili, only the two cities of Beijing and Tianjin are left, and the land is completely connected, and it is impossible to distinguish where Beijing is and where is Tianjin.

Nanzhili is also the same, and there are only two cities, Nanjing and Shanghai.

With the relocation of factories, housing prices in Beijing have fallen, and real estate in Tianjin has increased in value, but Tianjin's environmental problems have become more and more serious.

In the 56th year of Jingtai, the center decided to move 20 heavily polluting enterprises from Tianjin to the Japanese state.

At the beginning of this year, 20 heavily polluting enterprises were relocated to the country.

Housing prices in the two places have dropped slightly, and there has been a wave of people leaving Beijing.

The resident population of Beizhili is 30 million, and the resident population is as high as 50 million.

However, there was no serious smog in Jingshi.

Because of the early attention to environmental issues, all enterprises that did not meet environmental protection regulations were shut down, and a large number of enterprises were transferred to the Japanese country.

The country has become the main area for the transfer of heavy polluting industries in the Ming Dynasty.

The emperor's definition of the Wa State was that it was a heavily polluting enterprise.

Because the country is near the sea, it is suitable for sewage discharge, and in addition, the geographical environment of the country is too poor, and there are perennial earthquakes and volcanoes, which is very unsafe.

Besides, the Ming Dynasty has not yet put the recovery of the Wa Kingdom on the agenda, although the Wa Shogunate has constantly begged the emperor to accept us.

The emperor is still squeezing out the last vestige of vitality in the Wa Kingdom.

There is another factor, from the eighth year of Jingtai, large-scale planting of trees, for 50 years, not allowed to cut down, and keep planting trees, the whole North Zhili, lush, a green.

In recent years, with the promotion of new pigments, folk houses have also begun to paint, colorful, and the emperor allowed the folk to use imperial colors and red, and there are many folk colored houses.

Not only Beizhili, but also the entire Ming Dynasty are colored.

It's not the original gray-black hue.

In the past, pigments were expensive, but with the dismantling of paint from oil, the price of pigments plummeted, and in the forty-sixth year of Jingtai, paint entered thousands of households.

In the Spring Festival of the forty-seventh year of Jingtai, the internal government contributed funds to paint the city wall.

In the past few years, during the New Year and festivals, the emperor will contribute money to add color to the world, but the emperor does not plan to pay this money himself.

He proposed the concept of advertising, allowing merchants to bid for advertisements on the city walls, and use the money to make up for the cost of painting the city walls, as well as to make a profit.

After that, the local government swallowed the money, and there was no need for the emperor to pay for the painting of the city wall, just give it to the local government.

In the 50th year of Jingtai, the Forestry Department introduced desert dates from Iraq and tried to grow them in the northwest desert.

Dates are tropical trees that need to be genetically modified to be successful.

The Institute of Forestry Division is working on this topic.

After the vassal kingdom occupied the world, it began to communicate with the Ming Dynasty, and the things of the Ming Dynasty appeared in the feudal country, and the things of the feudal kingdom appeared in the Ming Dynasty, and the whole world was gradually connected into a whole.

"Old forty can really think of beautiful things, let his second son go to Denmark, why doesn't he go to heaven!"

Zhu Jianqi received Chen Guo's recital and directly refuted it.

And this song was copied by the copying official and sent to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

The old forty-one set off to go to the domain, and now the emperor is in charge of the second and third Zhu Youyu and Zhu Youjin of the Zhu Jianqi family.

The two of them picked out the notes that the emperor needed to see and showed them to the old man.

After reading it, Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Your father is a little family." ”

"Old forty has vision."

"Denmark is a place that can contain the Kamal alliance and Germany's ambitions, and the strategic vision is good."

"No wonder your father is unhappy, the old forty just wants Daming to contribute, not to give Daming benefits, Chen Guo picks up the cheap, let his prince suffer, can your father be happy?"

Zhu Youyu and Zhu Youjin glanced at each other.

They knew that when the Ottomans were defeated, the old man would divide them both up.

Therefore, they must be familiar not only with government affairs, but also with the affairs of each vassal state, and when they succeed to the vassal domain, they will have to deal with these countries.

"Grandpa, Da Ming doesn't have the strength to fight for the vassal kingdom." Zhu Youjin tested the emperor's attitude.

"It's not a question of sparing no effort."

Zhu Qiyu said: "This is a matter of attitude, this time I helped Chen Guo, what about other vassal countries?" I want my son to go to the next domain, do I want to help? ”

"According to your father's approval, send it to Chen Guo."

"Chen Guo wants to occupy this place, and I agreed, but he wants to fight the territory himself."

In fact.

Zhu Jianjun also knew that the old emperor would not agree.

Chen Guo just wants to occupy this place, and he must collapse the Kamal Alliance in order to take advantage of the fire.

He actually thinks the English dog is easier to use.

With the Netherlands lying flat and Britain on its own, this is the best time to tame Britain.

Zhu Jianjun made the most wrong decision in his life.

Conquer the British.

Britain is a horse boy, first mixed with Spain, then with Portugal, then with the Netherlands, and now with Chen Guo.

The British king was so quick to succumb, because of the Ming War, the Ming Dynasty won an overwhelming victory, and in June of the 57th year of Jingtai, the army besieged the capital Seyut.

There were several Ottoman capitals, and Seyut was just one of them.

The Ming Dynasty paid more than 100,000 casualties and won the first phase of the war.

Da Ming began to use his usual skills to slaughter all the cities near Seyut.

As a result, the occupation area defected on a large scale, and the Ming Dynasty fell into the quagmire of war.

All the results that had just been achieved were vomited in August.

The Ming and Austrian War ended with the defeat of the Ming Dynasty, and the cumulative losses of the Ming army exceeded 200,000 people, which was a great defeat.

This was a rare defeat in the Ming Dynasty's foreign wars.

However, the Ottomans were not comfortable, losing more than 400,000 soldiers, nearly 5 million civilians killed and wounded, and burning more than 100 cities, which shows the destructive power of the Ming army.

In the Ming-Hungarian War, even if the Kaiser participated in the war, the Ming Dynasty overthrew Hungary and began to massacre the Hungarian region.

King Cai Zhu Jianya succeeded the domain here.

In the same year, Zhu Youchun of Zhao took Finland and became the overlord of the Baltic Sea.

Accelerated the collapse of the Kamal Union.

The territorial disputes of the four Central Asian countries have caused a great headache for the central authorities.

Great Wei coveted too much territory, which made the other three kingdoms dissatisfied, and the slightest mishandling of the center would cause the four vassal states to drift away from Germany.

Zhu Jianqi didn't dare to deal with it, so he asked the emperor to deal with it himself.

With a wave of his hand, the emperor redrew the demarcation line of the vassal kingdom and ordered the vassal state to define the territory according to the demarcation line drawn by the Ming Dynasty.

When Zhu Jianqi saw it, he almost vomited blood.

The emperor allocated all the rich territories to Wei, which was forcing Central Asia to fight.

Originally, the nations were dissatisfied with the division of their territories.

This time, the emperor supported the Wei state, and it is estimated that the war in Central Asia will be ignited immediately.

At the same time, he also breathed a sigh of relief, the emperor was both helpful and defensive against the vassal state.

If Central Asia is calm, the Ming Dynasty will not be calm.

Really.

After the circle of the old emperor was drawn, Xu Guo thought that the old emperor was partial to the king of Wei, and immediately raised troops to attack Wei, and Yi and Ning responded to it, and the three kingdoms attacked Wei.

Zhu Jianjun, the king of Wei, coveted the entire territory of Afghanistan.

The Three Kingdoms just sent an excuse to the mouth of Wei, and Wei took the lead to swallow the entire territory of Afghanistan, and recruited troops on a large scale in Afghanistan to actively prepare for war.

Clouds of war were gathering in Central Asia in an instant.

This was also the first war within the Ming Domain.

It attracted the close attention of many feudal states.

The main thing is to see what the reaction of the center is, whether the center will order an armistice and restore peace?

If not, is the center supporting the expansion of the nations? Or did it only support the expansion of the Wei state?

The old emperor is still there, and everyone has to consider the old emperor's thoughts.

It's not my father's reason.

But the old emperor is unpredictable, and no one knows what hole cards he is hiding.

If the old emperor dares to seal the vassal country, he will dare to destroy the vassal country, don't think that the old emperor is a good man and a woman, it is by no means the first stage of the Ming-Austrian War that he was defeated, so he dared to underestimate the Ming Dynasty.

Look at it, the old emperor will definitely not change the commander in battle, but will tell the commander to be brave after shame, and I want to see victory.

This is the mind of the old emperor, and it is also the confidence of the old emperor, who has great confidence in the Ming army.

It is estimated that it will not be long before Daming will achieve a big victory.

When the war broke out in Central Asia.

In China, because of the four major projects, there is a lot of noise.

At the end of the fifty-seventh year of Jingtai, the emperor ordered that the plan to raise the northeast mountain range began to be implemented, and all the geographers of the people were recruited to go to the northeast to start measuring and coming up with a plan.

The offer given by the Ministry of Industry is 16 billion.

The old emperor felt that it was expensive and did not need so much.

I began to listen to the quotations of private construction companies, which was also the first time that a private construction company was involved in large-scale national infrastructure projects.

Through calculation, the private quotation is about 9 billion.

As for why there is so much difference in the middle, you have to ask officials at all levels how much they take.

The emperor was not yet satisfied with the price.

Don't think that he doesn't know the serious corruption in the court, how much the project costs, and the standard Jingtai for about fifteen years, it is clear at a glance.

At that time, the cost of building a complete Beijing-Shanghai Expressway was about 7 million.

Now, a highway with the same mileage costs more than 30 million.

Don't forget, how expensive was asphalt then, and how much is asphalt worth now? There was also rail transportation, which at that time was all carried by pallet trucks.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu went back and forth to the Yangxin Palace, hoping that the emperor would let the Ministry of Industry preside over the construction, although the cost of the Ministry of Industry was high, but the quality was very good.

In the twelfth year of Jingtai, the asphalt road built has been used for forty-five years, and it is only a small repair, and it is still in normal use.

The rebuilt Yellow River and Zhonghua River projects have withstood the test.

The emperor is also settling an account.

Handed over to a private company, plus the later maintenance costs, even if the use time is short, it is cost-effective, the problem is to raise the mountains, and it is not for human use, how can it be broken?

In the fifty-eighth year of Jingtai, on the first day of the first lunar month, the emperor decided to compress the price of the project at 8.5 billion yuan and hand it over to a private company.

The central officials are co-ordinated.

Private enterprises participated in major national projects for the first time, and this experiment fired the first shot of the rise of local construction enterprises.

State-owned enterprises and imperial enterprises have construction companies, but the emperor thinks it is expensive.

The construction period is expected to be completed in 40 years.

During this period, a railway will be built for the transportation of raw materials such as civil engineering, and a supporting factory will be opened in the tundra area.

These supporting facilities are not included in the project quotation, and the total quotation is 12 billion.

But the supporting projects can always be used, and sooner or later the cost will be recouped.

The summer time in the tundra area is short, and the construction time is short, so it is necessary to make sufficient preparations and pay close attention to the construction period.

At the same time, plans to reclaim the Bohai Bay and the Korean Bay are also on the agenda.

After careful research and scientific experiments by geographers and meteorologists, it was concluded that filling up the two bays would easily cause the four provinces of Hebei, Henan, Shandong, and Beizhili to have a dry climate and become scarce in water resources.

But the biggest problem is that multiple natural harbors will be lost.

The biggest impact is Tianjin.

Tianjin can serve as the gateway to Gyeonggi by virtue of its superior maritime advantages, and once the port of Tianjin disappears, a new province will emerge.

Then Jingshi will completely become the mainland.

The cost of transportation has increased greatly, and the meaning of Tianjin's existence is not so great.

Even Tianjin, the second largest city in Northern Zhili, will decline because of this.

But the reason why the government and the opposition are very supportive is that.

The Ming Jingshi, far away from the sea route, has enough strategic depth, even if there is a disturbance on the seaside, or a vassal country knocks on the door of the Ming Dynasty, it will not threaten Beijing.

There is Rehe in the north and Xindi in the east, so there is no need to worry about the danger of the Beijing division being exposed to the enemy's front.

The development of railways has replaced maritime transportation to a certain extent.

Or introduce another river and use river transport instead of sea transportation.

There is also an advantage that the Ming Dynasty is closer to North Korea and the Wa Kingdom, and the land transportation makes North Korea never able to break away from the Ming Dynasty.

With North Korea, there is a chance to fill the road from North Korea to the Wa Kingdom in the future, and the Wa State will never be able to break away from the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, after repeated deliberations, the center decided to fill in the two bays.

Because the black soil is very rich, two new pieces of soil need to be transported from the northern permafrost area to fill about one meter.

The black soil in the northeast is only about one meter.

The two newly filled provinces are also built in accordance with the regulations of the black soil in Northeast China.

The emperor still listened to the private offer, and the private offer was 6 billion yuan, with a construction period of 40 years.

The Emperor felt that time had passed.

The final cost is 7.8 billion yuan, and it will be completed in 30 years.

Some folk scholars say that to protect marine resources, marine life should be driven away before filling in.

The center says ignorance.

It is very difficult to fill the current productivity, and it doesn't matter what the environment is, let's find a way in the future.

The most important thing is water.

There is no shortage of water in North China, but the addition of two new continents may not be the case.

Some scholars have proposed that the south-to-north water diversion will divert water from the south to the north for use.

But with the current technology, there is no way to achieve it.

Some scholars have also suggested that building dams, artificially regulating water resources, and generating hydropower would kill two birds with one stone.

This statement has been recognized by the central government.

It is believed that dams can be built on many water systems in North China, and the amount of water can be artificially adjusted according to the climate, so as to save water, and strive to make the new land fully use water resources.

But the province is not the way.

The emperor hit the idea on the Yenisei River.

Whether it can divert water from the fishing sea, and use the north water in the south.

It is a complete waste of water from the permafrost area to flow into the Arctic Ocean, and the water from the fishing sea is used to nourish Mongolia, Rehe, Hebei, and Xindi.

Again, the project is huge.

The offer given by the Ministry of Industry is 7 billion, and no company in the private sector dares to accept this kind of order.

The price quoted by the Water Control Division is 7.7 billion, and the effect is not guaranteed.

To tell the truth, the entire Yenisei River, the Ming Dynasty is almost completely useless, it is a completely wasteful river.

If the Yenisei River can be diverted, the whole north will be revitalized.

Scholars even proposed that the Yenisei River should be used to inject water into the entire north of the Ming Dynasty, so that Guanzhong, Shanxi, and Ningxia would all benefit.

Originally, after the addition of the Xing'an Mountains, the northern permafrost area was completely sealed, and humans were completely uninhabitable.

The Yenisei River is also completely useless, and even the existence of the fishing sea is a question, and there is a possibility that it will be completely frozen.

You have to find a way to use it.

After some deliberations, it was decided to start the Yenisei River diversion project, with an internal capital injection of 8 billion yuan and a construction period of 25 years.

Use the Yenisei River to inject water into the entire north of the Ming Dynasty.

The addition of the Xing'an Mountains will turn Northeast Asia into a treasure land with a pleasant climate.

Fill in the Bohai Bay and the Korean Bay, and fill out the two provinces.

The fourth project is to fill the shortest distance between the Leizhou Peninsula and Qiongzhou Prefecture, and to reclaim artificial islands in the Yanhai Sea to shorten the distance between Qiongzhou Prefecture and the three provinces of Borneo.

The fourth project is the smallest and can be operated in all seasons, with a total investment of 5 billion yuan, and is expected to create a perfect island chain connecting the mainland and Borneo.

There are a lot of Daming Bay.

From west to east, the Bay of Bengal, Motama Bay, Bangkok Bay, Beibu Bay.

The grandson Zhu Youchang was eager to try, and the old emperor filled in the two bays, and after he succeeded to the throne, the first one to fill in was the Beibu Bay.

Shorten the distance between Cochin and Guangxi.

Another artificial canal will be built to reduce the uniqueness of Malacca, so that Malacca will no longer be the only strategic center of gravity of the Ming Dynasty.

He didn't dare to tell his father these thoughts.

The crown prince was against the emperor's blind construction.

Daming has no shortage of land at all.

There are more than 20 million territories in the Ming Dynasty, and what territory is still filled, with this effort, it is better to clean up a few vassal states and let the vassal countries accept the land and call them vassals.

It's a pity that the crown prince doesn't have any right to speak.

The emperor prevented the crown prince from interrupting the project after succeeding to the throne, and directly issued a death order, my national policy, the king of later generations, dare to give up halfway, the world vassal country, attack it together!

That's a cruel statement!

That is to say, if Zhu Jianqi dares not to do it, then change the emperor, all the emperors of the vassal kingdom have the right to enter the Forbidden City, and those who enter the Forbidden City will be the emperor.

Zhu Jianqi said that he was suffering, so he didn't put a tight spell on him when he said this.

Look at Zhu Youchang, that little bastard, who talked to his grandfather for a few days, with excitement on his face, as if to say, when I ascend the throne, I will fill in all the bays.

I don't care, you just toss around.

In the 58th year of Jingtai, the center announced the four major projects of Jingtai.

Counting these four major projects, the Jingtai Dynasty had a total of six major projects, the root control of the Yellow River, the construction of the Zhonghua River, enough for Emperor Jingtai to leave a strong mark in history.

And these four major projects are launched, as for the reputation, can only be judged by future generations.

The total investment of the four major projects is 33 billion, and the completion period is expected to be about 100 years.

Money, although it is all from within.

However, the financial estimates also have to help, and if the internal funds cannot be paid, the finances will also have to bear the burden.

So, the ministers have been squeezing the old emperor's coffin book for the past few days.

The people rejoiced.

If you have a project to do, you will make money, do royal projects, and don't worry about wages, this is an iron rice bowl.

It is expected that Jingtai will start construction in 60 years.

This plan will affect the millennium plan of future generations, and its role will be even greater than that of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.
