Chapter 365: The Emperor's Throne is a Golden Toilet

Whether it is Zhu Yijun, Zhang Juzheng, Wang Chonggu, or courtiers and courtiers, they all recognize Wan Shihe's ability, and Wan Shihe's most conspicuous ability is to sprinkle water and wash the floor to make up for what His Majesty has done.

His Majesty said: This year, Tessie's galleon will not be able to arrive in port.

The worsted woolen plate can be completely smashed, not completely because Zhu Yijun has a lot of inventory, and he keeps smashing the plate to smash it, but because the Taixi galleon can not arrive in Hong Kong as scheduled, the silver inflow slows down, the silver dam situation in the developed areas of the Ming Dynasty will be relieved, and the silver in the developed areas will be reduced.

The purpose of smashing the plate is not to let the risk of the worsted woolen business be transferred to the heads of the people, and the luxury households are very good at blackmailing the people to respect themselves.

Silk currency, or too dangerous, in the definition, silk currency is a complete financial currency, and the industrial base is weakly related, and silver inflow speed, silver liquidity has a close relationship.

Ship tickets and silk coins are completely different things, ship tickets and the Ming Dynasty open sea policy, the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty maritime trade, and the circulation of silver has little to do with the silk currency, not the silk currency is completely financial, the tulip scam of beating the drum and passing the flowers.

The difference between the two, specifically: ship tickets can pay dividends, while silk coins do not have this attribute at all;

The issuance of ship tickets is limited by the production capacity of Daming shipbuilding, and worsted woolen is mainly limited by the abundance of aquatic plants in the grassland;

The risk of the ship ticket comes from the safety of the Ming ship, which determines the probability of the ship returning to the sea, while the risk of the silk currency mainly comes from the dealer's operation;

The main purpose of the ship ticket is to inject a steady stream of funds into the Nanya open sea, while the worsted woolen business is more like a gambling house opened by gathering and prospering;

The plate of the ship ticket business can be much larger than the plate of the silk currency business;

The silk coin business is the emperor's toy, which can be said to be a pilot of ship tickets, accumulating experience in ticket transactions, and the transaction of ship tickets, from the system design, Zhu Yijun has to negotiate in detail with Yuan Fu, Ci Fu, Da Sima and others, and then slowly implement it, which is a major plan of the country.

Wan Shihe can neither let His Majesty's words fall to the ground, nor can he let the words of Yuan Fu Taifu fall to the ground, these are all authoritarian figures, and the authority of authoritarian figures is not allowed to be challenged.

Empire is essentially the highest manifestation of dictatorial authority.

The angle of Wanshi and Washing was very strange, he did not deny the news that the Tessie galleon was going to arrive in port, and then announced that the news was good news!

This method of washing the floor is simply shameless, completely reversing black and white, referring to the deer as a horse. But Wan Shihe's words have been unanimously recognized by the luxury households, which is indeed good news, and it is great news!

Because this represents the powerlessness of the imperial power in maritime trade, it means that the Ming Emperor cannot manipulate the value of ship tickets as he pleases and wantonly.

After the silk coin business, the owner behind Yanxinglou released nearly 20,000 worsted wool wool horses a day, directly smashed the plate through, this terrifying trading ability, so that the luxury households still have some doubts about the value of the ship ticket, because this represents the yamen's terrible control in the ticket transaction, this control, affected the enthusiasm of the market.

But as Wan Shihe pointed out the essence of the matter, this sad news completely turned into good news, and the ship tickets rose again, and the occasional scattered tickets were also snapped up.

In the quiet, Beizhili, Shanxi, Shandong and other places cover the interests of luxury households, and the Ming Dynasty opened the sea, the Ming Dynasty has carried out a deep bundle, Daming Xing, they can continue to lie down to make money, the Ming Dynasty is dead, then everyone will play together.

From the beginning of the proposal for ship ticket trading, Wang Chonggu repeatedly emphasized that everyone should be tied to the same boat.

Is there really nothing Your Majesty can do about this?

Yuanfu Taifu Zhang Juzheng said: Sink it! Where the Ming Dynasty is within reach, His Majesty is the only piece of heaven in the Ming Dynasty, and it is the supreme will! Your Majesty said that if you don't get to the port, you can't let the galleons come to the port.

Your Majesty's will is above all else.

In a feudal imperial state where everything revolves around the word emperor, an authoritarian emperor wields supreme power when he wields violence.

Violence is gunpowder, steel, silver coins, etiquette and people's hearts, in the eyes of different people, the weight of these things is different, in Zhu Yijun's eyes, the weight of these things is completely the same, and they are all very important.

Zhu Yijun still has a strong ability to operate the ship ticket business, and he can even over-issue futures ship tickets to completely muddy the water.

No system is perfect, when the closed-door meeting of the Quanchu Hall discussed the establishment of a ship ticket trading bank, Zhu Yijun thought that a three-masted plywood ship worth 50,000 silver could be split into 10,000 copies, that is, the dividends of opening the sea, so that most of the people could also get a piece of the pie.

The idea is plump, and the reality is skinny.

But in the end, Zhang Juzheng persuaded that it was still a thousand copies, because this involved the problem of landing, Daming did not have enough manpower to manage such a large number of tickets, and similarly, five taels of silver may be the accumulation of several years of an ordinary person, once the boat capsizes, it means that years of hard work have been in vain.

At any time and in any era, the people's ability to resist risks is almost zero, and they cannot withstand any risks, even if they are a little lazy in the autumn, they do not plough the fields, do not turn the locust eggs to the surface, let the cold freeze the locust eggs to death, and the next year the harvest may fail.

Daming's opening of the sea is still on the way to explore, and even the gateway of the sea pond, the Strait of Malacca are firmly controlled in the hands of Hongmaofan, which also leads to another problem, in any era, the people can not eat the dividends of development, when the exploration is completed, that is, when the dividends of the sea are almost exhausted, high-quality assets are completely controlled by the luxury households, just as the fertile land of the Ming Dynasty is in the hands of the gentry.

Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer.

The Ming Emperor and the Ming Dynasty are not the heavenly court, even if the monarch's father, the monarchy, and the monarch's teacher are one, they cannot distribute the emperor's grace evenly to everyone, ensure the basic social order, ensure the survival of the regime, ensure the correct use of violence, ensure the basic life and property safety of the people, and ensure relative fairness, this reality is the criterion of the court's practice.

The world of great harmony, the world of the avenue, everyone is virtuous, everyone respects the elderly, everyone loves the young, everywhere is uneven, no one is not full of warmth, it is an ideal country, and it is a metaphysical pursuit.

On the fourth day of the sixth month of the seventh year of Wanli, the news of the arrival of the Taixi galleon as scheduled reached Jingtang, and the new captain had already boarded the hydrofoil sailboat and was on his way to Beijing.

Zhu Yijun came to the Wenhua Hall as always, the royal gate listened to the government, the king of Lu Zhu Yiyi yawned, followed His Majesty to the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Yijun disliked the palace more and more, and sincerely disgusted.

Even if he had to come because of the majesty of the imperial brother, he couldn't show too much, but he was tired of it.

Endless meetings, endless things, forever uneven distribution of benefits, never-ending busyness, the royal brother can persist until now, Zhu Yiyi can only admire! Brother fierce man too!

In Zhu Yijun's view, the life of the imperial brother is boring, boring, boring, and not exciting, and Zhu Yijun also agrees with his younger brother's view.

Every day in the Peking University Camp, Zhu Yijun is the happiest time, and at this time, he can feel the wind of freedom, whistling by his side.

In the view of Emperor Zhu Yijun of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's throne is a golden toilet, with countless chains, firmly tied to the emperor, these chains are rituals, entanglements of interests that are not clear at all, the expectations of the people of the Ming Dynasty, the mission entrusted to him by history, etc., are shackles, and power.

Zhu Yijun dislikes the palace very much, after Wang Chonggu Dingjian repaired the central axis of the palace, Zhu Yijun also lived in the Qianqing Palace for a day, this is not that Zhu Yijun does not trust Wang Chonggu's Dingjian, it is that he does not like this kind of constraint.

The high walls of the palace are a cage.

Before the court meeting began, Zhu Yijun took out a notebook, picked up the Zhu pen and Zhu Pi, and after stamping the big seal, he looked at the courtiers for a while, and then said very seriously: "The Luzon Governor's Office asked the imperial court about the attitude of the Strait of Malacca, and there is only one attitude!" At all costs, take the Strait of Malacca, which is the gateway of the Ming Dynasty on the sea, the Strait of Malacca is in the hands of Yidi for a day, and the sea pond for thousands of miles is not peaceful for a day. ”

"Everyone, imagine that Jiayu is in the hands of Yidi."

Tan Lun immediately said loudly: "Daming will never have peace!" ”

Tan Lun is a radical, because he is afraid of the dead, is he not peaceful? Because you are afraid of the dead, don't you go out to attack and attack? The living space of all people in the Ming Dynasty needs the sword of the Ming Dynasty to open up and protect.

The auxiliary minister, the household department Shangshu Wang Guoguang spat out a turbid breath, and said a little helplessly: "The sky has changed, it is getting colder and colder, the grain harvest on the three sides of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo has been poor for many years, and the grain in Beizhili is also declining, it turns out that it is only the cold wave that affects the grassland, and it seems that it is gradually eroding the Ming Dynasty, last winter, it snowed in Guangzhou, Hangzhou froze, and Ying Tianfu froze to death. ”

The lack of food in the Ming Dynasty is the status quo of the Ming Dynasty, and the contradiction between man and land is the fundamental contradiction of the Ming Dynasty, which is the fundamental contradiction that exists since the beginning of the Wanli New Deal.

How severe is the climate impact of Xiaoice? Hangzhou's West Lake is frozen, and Guangzhou's is snowing.

The snow in the south and the snow in the north are different, the snow in the north will really freeze people to death, and the south Yaying Tianfu, the land of Daming Longxing, also freezes to death, this is the terrible climate of Xiaoice, the most terrible is the failure of the grain harvest.

Where is the granary? In the sea pond of Wanli.

Silver can not eat or drink, no silver, at most money shortage, the economy of the Ming Dynasty has continued to collapse for more than two hundred years, from the beginning of the Hongwu period, the Ming Dynasty has always been in a state of money shortage, after the collapse of the treasure banknote, the imperial court in the matter of money, has long been completely rotten.

But if there is no food, there will be a famine, and when there is a famine, the people will migrate, and all kinds of contradictions will burst like cooking oil on fire, and the people under hunger will lose all their shackles, and then overthrow the incompetent Ming court.

After the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household expressed their position, His Majesty's arbitrariness became the common result of the court discussion, because the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty unconditionally supported all of His Majesty's decisions, and Wan Shihe always had the attitude of blowing the wind in that direction and falling in whichever way.

"Hit! If you don't spend money on armaments, will you spend it on war reparations? Beat! The official secretary Wan Shihe made a statement, which was not expected by everyone.

Wan Shihe has always believed in a sentence, and has always said in the emperor's ear, Yi Di is not a human, he is a wolf-faced beast, afraid of power but not virtuous, do not hurt them, are afraid, dare not stretch out their hands, they will not speak well, Wan Shihe thinks so, says so, and does this, Wan Shihe's brainwashing repeated over the years is very successful, and His Majesty also recognizes this sentence very much.

Hai Rui, as a courtier from Qiongzhou, raised his hands in favor of taking the Strait of Malacca, the gateway to the sea pond, and these red-haired fans, widows and desperate outlaws of the Ming Dynasty jointly composed of Haikou invaded the long coastline of the Ming Dynasty, and Qiongzhou, Hainan, bore the brunt.

Without the safety of thousands of miles of Haitang, there will be no security in Qiongzhou, as an important minister of the imperial court, he agrees with his left hand, as a Hainanese, he agrees with his right hand, and Hai Rui agrees with both public and private.

"At all costs, no matter how long, five years, ten years, we must take the Strait of Malacca!" Zhu Yijun saw that the courtiers did not object to the major resolutions, and made the final decision.

"Your Majesty." Zhang Juzheng led the ministers and sang praises.

After Zhang Juzheng sat firmly, he said: "Your Majesty, what Governor Yin said, the minister thinks it is very good, it is not easy for our Ming Shui Master to cultivate, and the number is small, these soil fans, you can make good use of it, just right, you can change people." ”

Zhang Juzheng agreed with Yin Zhengmao's proposition that before the local savages and monkeys died, the Ming Dynasty would never stop attacking.

Zhang Juzheng, he must be retribution, ruthless, the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty have long seen Zhang Juzheng's methods, Yuanfu Gao Gong, Yang Bo, the secretary of the ministry, and Wang Chonggu, the military affairs of the governor of the Beijing camp, are stacked up, and they have not been able to fight Zhang Juzheng, but today, the courtiers have discovered that Zhang Juzheng's heart is really ruthless!

For another person, there are only four words, but it is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

The flesh mill in the Strait of Malacca is destined to eat people, Yin Zhengmao wants this meat grinder to eat savages, in order to reduce the loss of the Daming sailors, and Zhang Juzheng thinks further, he wants to change the species, the man is sent to the meat grinder to be hanged, and the woman wants to find her husband again, she can only find the Han people of the Ming Dynasty, and the thousands of miles of sea ponds are Han people.

Thousands of miles of sea ponds can truly become the back garden of the Ming Dynasty.

The eyes of the courtiers were a little surprised, Taifu had not been so tyrannical before, why was he so vicious now?

"Some sins are destined to be carried, so let me do it." Zhang Juzheng took out a blank floating ticket and wrote what he just said.

Zhu Yijun received Zhang Juzheng's floating ticket, thought about it and said: "It's okay, it's dead, no one will mention this matter in the future." ”

The courtiers looked at the emperor on the platform with horror, whether the Ming Emperor was taught like this by Taifu, or whether Taifu was influenced by the emperor to become like this, this is an inexplicable matter, it is about a conjugate master and apprentice.

Zhang Juzheng will not receive bad reviews, and the Strait of Malacca, a strategic place, will definitely perfectly solve the local ethnic contradictions.

Gao Qiyu translated the books that Tessie bought at the Royal Gewu Academy, and there was a book published in Italy in the 11th year of Jiajing, called "The Monarch", which was written by the thinker Niccolò Machiavelli, in which Niccolò said: Colonization in the Roman era was to burn the local area to wasteland, and when everyone was hungry, kill the men, and then immigrate there, and it became the territory of Rome.

Tessie's colonization, indeed.

Zhu Yijun thinks this opportunity is very good, he is such a person, he does not believe in the wisdom of future generations, only believes in himself.

In fact, there were two heroes in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and Emperor Wen Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang killed more than half of the court before he died, just to let his grandson Zhu Yunwen succeed to the throne, Zhu Yunwen lost the country, and in a way that was almost humiliating, he made himself a missing end; Zhu Di went to the West six times, five expeditions to the grassland, after his death, he went to the West again and stopped, Xingwen Kuangwu, horses put Nanshan, and even the emperor did not go to Beijing to exercise military horses.

Zhu Yijun really doesn't believe in the wisdom of future generations, he can't believe it, Qin Shi Huang still thinks about thousands of generations, but it will be lost in the second generation, how can Zhu Yijun believe in the wisdom of future generations?

He has done too many evil things, just Yanzhou Confucius Mansion, the destruction of the Confucian family, it is worth the abuse of the readers from generation to generation, Zhu Yijun's grave is destined to be full of garbage, the wind of history cannot blow away these garbage, and even his grave may be cut open and cremated for him.

Zhu Yijun, who is destined to be full of garbage on the grave, doesn't care about the amount of garbage on his grave, it is a garbage mountain anyway.

Zhu Yijun wrote his words on the floating ticket, which must be annihilated, and no more sins must be left.

The court discussion of the Ming Dynasty continued, but Feng Bao glanced at the Zhongshu Sheren coldly, but whoever recorded the living notes of these two Zhongshu Sheren dared to record the words of Zhang Juzheng and His Majesty in the next word, Feng Bao would definitely let them see what it means to be sinister in the world.

Feng Bao has never been a gentle person, how many people have been thrown into the dry well by him, if these two Zhongshu people are not sensible, he can destroy that page, as for these two people, it is natural to hand it over to Zhang Juzheng to deal with.

Zhang Hong simply grabbed the hand of the Zhongshu Sheren, if he didn't record it, it wouldn't exist, and everyone in the province would be embarrassed.

No one pays attention to those earthly savage monkeys.

Da Ming did this, there was no psychological pressure, such as the first year of Wanli, all Zhangman reported to Beijing, His Majesty read the Jieyin at the noon gate, and rewarded him with great gratitude, all Zhangman, that is, servants, only the hanging coffins left on the cliff proved their existence.

No one from the capital stood up to accuse Da Ming of his atrocities.

Zhu Yiyi's yawning mouth was not closed, his scalp was numb, and he looked at Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng blankly, he felt that his sloppy behavior was simply a little kid's nonsense, what a ruthless person!

Stay away from the court, in order to be rich and prosperous for a lifetime.

Zhu Yiyi was a little frightened, in the education he received, shouldn't the Confucian scholars be gentle and elegant? Does this have anything to do with mild-manneredness?

Deng Zilong is right, His Majesty will definitely fight, loving soldiers like sons and not being in charge of soldiers has never been the opposite of contradictions.

Zhang Juzheng took out a notebook and said: "Taixi's special envoy Li Yashi has heard it through Honglu Siqing, please agree on a five-masted ship before the delivery this year, and it is expected to deliver twelve ships this time. ”

"You have to add money, if you don't add money, our big Shah Mamaiti customers don't say it, they must be unhappy in their hearts, why, they are inferior in the Mughal country? As soon as Shahmamat was not happy, he stopped throwing away the money bag. After Zhu Yijun heard this, he immediately said: "If you don't add money, let Felipe II line up, and if you don't accept him, you will call." ”

Shah Mamat likes to throw silver bags around to invite people to drink tea, more five-masted ships appeared in the Western Ocean (Indian Ocean), which can effectively involve the fleet of the Goa Governor's Mansion and the Diu Governor's Palace, which is extremely beneficial to the Ming Dynasty to capture the Strait of Malacca, and Shah Mamat adds money to add a lot of energy, in addition to adding money, Shah Mamat even calls the shots, 20,000 war horses, directly for nothing, the main thing is a wide!

Your Majesty's greedy face is really not as generous and magnanimous as Shahmaiti, which is somewhat detrimental to the majesty of the Heavenly Empire.

Nai, nay.

Daming has so many mouths up and down waiting to eat, Zhu Yijun can only do this, Daming has its own national conditions.

Are you Felipe II going to carry a ship? didn't say that you wouldn't be allowed to mention it, if you didn't add configuration, if you didn't add money, how could there be any reason to let you pick up the boat?

"The reason why Felipe II was so risky is that it can be seen that the twelve five-masted ships that Antonio brought to Tessie brought a lot of trouble to Felipe II, and he hoped to get more five-masted ships, Antonio, quite capable of fighting." Zhang Juzheng handed the song to Feng Bao, and Feng Bao sent it to the platform.

The battle for the Portuguese throne between Antonio and Felipe II has begun, and this time, Antonio's style of play is quite English style, as a pirate.

Antonio relied on his twelve five-masted ships, plus thirty-five Gallese warships, and a number of pirate ships, in the Strait of Gibraltar, constantly harassing Spanish merchant ships, the situation in the Netherlands is becoming more and more anxious, the resistance is steadily increasing, Felipe II, who was already overwhelmed by the English, is now being attacked by Antonio's fleet.

I can't live my life!

Antonio led the pirates of Liberty City to achieve several brilliant victories in succession.

Felipe II's Armada finally struck, and then the Armada proved that the Armada was a fallacy at all, relying on his ship to be able to travel in eight winds, relying on his ship's large ship, high speed, and many guns, and never refused to fight head-on, and forced Felipe II's Armada to be beaten and could not bear the loss, so he could only return to sail.

"This kid can do it, he is worthy of the investment I gave him!" Zhu Yijun finished reading the report of Tessie's envoy Li Yashi, and was surprised by Antonio's combat strength, Antonio did not rely on the civilians who supported him the most, but chose another path and became an Englishman.

Tessie's envoy Li Yashi did not betray his king, he told Da Ming this, it was entirely because Da Ming would definitely know this, Xu Jie's eldest son Xu Fan, as the envoy resident in Taixi, would definitely bring these news back to Da Ming, and Da Ming would know sooner or later.

The five-masted ship has changed the pattern of naval warfare much more than Zhu Yijun imagined.

After reading the report, Zhu Yijun laughed directly, how much the Ming hated the Japanese, and how the French, Germans, Portuguese and Spaniards of Taixi hated the English.

"This time the galleon Tessie arrived in port, and there was a special messenger on it, Antonio's first mate Marcus, who came on behalf of Antonio, the heir of the King of Portugal, not the captain Antonio." Zhang Ju said with a strange face: "Here is a note from Antonio. ”

"Solo?" Zhu Yijun was stunned, and took the note, it is indeed a book, it is a note from the ministers of the Ming Dynasty to the emperor, Antonio called himself a minister in the note, this is not the first time that this is the case, Antonio has been calling himself a minister after accepting the investment of the Ming Emperor in the second year of Wanli.

The song was written by Antonio in his broken Chinese, it was really lame, it wasn't for the calligraphy appraisal master Zhang Juzheng who made the annotations, Zhu Yijun could hardly see what this guy wrote, the words were too ugly.

The documents were provided by Xu Fan, the resident envoy to Taixi, Xu Fan, who served as Antonio's staff.

"Then it's no wonder." Zhu Yijun has seen too much of the viciousness of Ming scholars, Xu Fan is also a scholar, he is a staff member for Antonio, Antonio followed the advice as well, as long as Felipe II obtains the Portuguese throne at a cost greater than the benefits, Felipe II will have to weigh the pros and cons, this kind of bad idea, at first glance, Xu Fan came out.

Felipe II's emissaries came to pick up the ship.

Antonio's emissary, Marcus, came to beg for canonization.

Antonio hoped that the Ming Emperor would continue to support him, and the support of force was enough, and he used an account to be collected by His Majesty personally to obtain twelve five-masted ships, which could be crushed by the Invincible Armada.

Antonio wants to be canonized by His Majesty.

Antonio judged that the Holy See, which was controlled by Felipe II, would never canonize him, so he simply went directly and completely to the East, became a vassal of His Majesty, and was canonized as a king by His Majesty, and His Majesty was the emperor, and the emperor canonized the prince, which was a legitimate regime.

And this kind of canonization will inevitably bring a privilege, that is, the qualification to trade with the Ming Dynasty.

To this day, because Portugal bribed local officials in Guangzhou to occupy the territory without permission, the Ming still has punitive tariffs on Portugal, which are as high as 30%, and when Antonio is canonized, this punishment will naturally end, and Portuguese merchant ships can continue to come to the Ming Dynasty for normal trade.

The gift of fate, the price has been marked in secret, Antonio begged for the grace of the Ming Emperor, not licking his face and begging, Antonio knows His Majesty's character, and he doesn't see a rabbit or a hawk.

Da Ming Enfeng gave him the law, he gave all the castles and plantations in the Strait of Malacca, and he gave the legal system, which was a deal, a good deal for each other, and the specific harvest was to be conquered by the Ming sailors in person, and the sea has always been like this, and the big fist can obtain benefits.

"Isn't it distressing for the cub to sell Yetian, Antonio said that he would sell it?" Zhu Yijun looked at Antonio's recital and said in amazement.

Zhang Juzheng thought for a moment and said: "Antonio is a smart man, Antonio who can defeat the sea, storms, sea beasts, and natives, is also a brave man, Daming's ambition for Wanli Haitang, passers-by know, the Strait of Malacca is so close to Daming, so far away from the Hongmaofan state, where it is destined to be lost, Antonio took it out in exchange for some benefits, it is natural." ”

Antonio, who is smart and brave and loves civilians, after climbing on the thigh of Daming, is finally qualified to protect those civilians who are looking forward to his protection.

Daming didn't do this kind of thing, those Yidi didn't voluntarily live in the grasslands, plateaus, and 100,000 mountains. Asking for a monthly pass, woo!!!!!!
