A greater abundance of livestock, crops, and means of production can effectively increase the output of the land, and the increase in the output of the land will lead to a surplus of grain, exchange, storage, winemaking, and raising more livestock, and the transition from a natural economy to a small-scale peasant economy, and only when there is enough surplus will there be a densely populated, dense, and sedentary hierarchical society.

Now there are only about 6 million people in the entire British Isles, including more than 500,000 Scots, more than 400,000 Welsh and Irish, and the class in England is not clear, only nobles, gentlemen and peasants, nobles are naturally royal and canonized nobles, and gentlemen include barons, knights, gentlemen, especially the gentleman class is a multi-identity both, which is the ambiguity of identity, is the class is not clear.

With a population of only 6 million and a year producing only 100,000 wool wool, when Felipe II, with the help of the power of the East, dumped 200,000 woolen wool and 300,000 cotton cloth on Britain every year, the local handicraft workshops in England would immediately go bankrupt, and even have the strength to destroy the handicraft industry of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Completely destroy the foundation of England's existence, and completely destroy England's ambition to get involved in the sea trade.

This was the business that Felipe II sent Sauron to the Ming Dynasty to discuss.

When Sauron arrived in Daming, he thought that Daming would not be able to provide enough wool and cotton cloth anyway, but after arriving, Sauron realized how large and rich Daming really was.

"The envoy of France, Gillian Robert, is in front of the gate of the Palazzo de la Concord, asking for an audience." A small yellow door hurried in.

Queen Mother Catherine probably planned to use beauty tricks to get some benefits, so she chose such a beauty so carefully, but apparently Catherine miscalculated.

"That's good." Sauron replied unconcernedly.

"You want to be Prometheus the Firestealer, but I'm not the moody Zeus, so take it." Zhu Yijun put the books on the table, smiled at Li Yashi and said: "They are really useless to Taixi, this is the result of Daming's political speculation, and it is only applicable to Daming." ”

"I want to see if you speak ill of me! Convict you again! Zhu Yijun opened the translated Latin version of various books, read for a long time, and found that there was no bad word about himself in it.

"This is my last gift." Li Yashi handed over the books and said exactly: "Be sure to keep them and don't lose them." ”

Zhu Yijun's offer is already black-hearted, and the best blue and ochre Songjiang cloth in the Ming Dynasty is one dollar and five cents of silver, and Zhu Yijun offers two silver and one horse.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Wan Shihe sent a roster, the army has triumphed, and it is time to choose concubines again.

"Daming has a machine called the steam engine, if you get permission, I can accompany you to take a look, this thing will greatly increase the output of cotton weaving."

Zhu Yijun really left this time.

Compared with the more rare wool, cotton cloth, meet the three necessary conditions, can become a world commodity, this is the world commodity proposed by Wanshi and promote the healthy development of Daming sea trade, and woolen products, limited by wool production, or the plundering of cotton cloth, more direct and clear.

These words, Jiajing years debate the resumption of the Hetao has already been said, as long as there is no Western Regions as a barrier, the Hetao hinterland, is directly exposed to the enemy, although it can be defended, but it will become a huge wound in the Ming Dynasty, bleeding more than once, even the Tang Dynasty, after there is no Western Regions, the Hetao will be lost immediately.

Zhu Yijun proposed this, of course, to help Felipe II save money!

By the way, cultivate the habit of Tessie's use of cotton cloth and cultivate the market.

The closed door was opened, Zhu Yijun appeared in front of the door, he swaggered in, and said with a smile: "I dropped a jade pendant, this is just to look for it?" Ah, here, what is this? ”

Li Yashi is about to become the same sycophant as Wan Shihe.

"Do you think that even the land that gave birth to you and can betray is worth the slightest?" Zhu Yijun waved his hand, if Li Yashi didn't steal, Zhu Yijun would look down on him, he was a second-minister thief, a person who could betray even the place where he was born and raised, then he could betray everything.

The production of wool and cotton in the Ming Dynasty will increase at a terrifying rate, because the Ming Dynasty has just recovered the Hetao, and similarly, the Ming Dynasty has opened the Strait of Malacca, and cheap cotton from the Mughal Kingdom will continue to pour into the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty said yes." Feng Bao put away the flowers and put them away.

Sauron knew that Felipe II's plan had failed, and Felipe's voice was heard by the wise Ming Emperor in the city of Beijing.

Zhu Yijun does what he says, he dares to arrange indiscriminately, he will definitely be punished by the palace, and he can't talk about it, but Li Yashi is still a little deferential.

All of them have been strictly vetted, there will be no problems, and each has its own beauty and characteristics.

The feudal system and slavery were almost bound together, and the peasants under the feudal system were actually serfs, but there were only a small number of yeoman farmers.

Gillian was obviously carefully familiar with the dress, appeared in front of the emperor in full costume, lifted her dress, bowed five times and kowtowed three times and said in broken Chinese: "Meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." ”

(Kansai Qiwei Hamiwei, Turpan Khanate)

In Lin Fucheng's theory of freedom, he first proposed that scale is advantage, and larger scale gives birth to a more mature industrial chain and more efficient transportation efficiency, which means lower costs and higher profits, and more profits are commodity advantages.

"In the eyes of the minister, this is the fire, to light the darkest fire, whether it is useful or not, the minister as a Taixi person should take it back and try to illuminate it." Li Yashi replied with great confidence.

Zhu Yijun was kind and seductive, and made a proposal quite seriously, like a demon's whisper.

If you can't read it, you will just throw it in the garbage when you bring it back.

"Nonsense!" Zhu Yijun waved his hand and motioned for Feng Bao to take away the portrait of the beauty of all countries.

Feng Bao whispered a few times in the emperor's ear, Cindy Celia, now a laundry maid, has been washing clothes in the Huan Washing Bureau for two years...

Hong Chengchou, as a member of the Ming Dynasty, the superintendent, surrendered to the Tartar Qing, and later after the Tartar Qing unified the country, he did not give Hong Chengchou any good looks, and directly compiled Hong Chengchou into the biography of the second minister and scolded him more than once, even if Hong Chengchou persuaded Jiangnan to surrender when the Tarqing attacked Jiangnan.

"This pair of sisters is very good, but after thinking about it, forget it, sisters are of the same heart, in case of ambition in life, the girl has a pure mind, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with." Zhu Yijun first looked at the twins who were blooming and stalking.

Zhu Yijun's mind quickly flashed several figures, all of them were messengers sent by Taixi, and after retrieval, he shook his head and asked, "Who is Cindy?" ”

"The executive power is not omnipotent, you are exaggerating these descriptions." Zhu Yijun gave important instructions on the translation, which could be translated, but exaggerated the role of the emperor.

These translated books are ironclad proof!

Zhao Mengyou's figure flickered, and he took the translated text in his hand.

"Waves of cotton cloth poured into England and swept away all the handicrafts in England!"

Sauron was very serious about these books, but after reading a few pages, he was sincerely confused, what contradictions, opposites and unified existences, what kind of things are they talking about?!

Li Yashi looked at Sauron's appearance, and sighed after all, knowing that His Majesty the Emperor was right, this thing has not been in the Ming Dynasty for a long time, and it is deeply influenced by the culture of the Ming Dynasty, and it is really difficult to read it.

"I never said you can't translate this." Zhu Yijun took a few books in his hand and said, "You can translate, these are originally published books." ”

"Or will all these beauties of all nations be accepted? Your Majesty, you don't need to be a concubine anyway, you should be regarded as a palace maid. Feng Bao put forward a very constructive suggestion, there are more than 70 beauties, and whoever is caught will be allowed to sleep.

The second minister thief is like this, no one will look down on it.

Gillian is a very cold beauty, which Zhu Yijun does not deny, but when he is not in the harem, when dealing with government affairs, Zhu Yijun has no gender in his eyes at all, it is all calculation, this is the passivity of a political creature.

The cotton cloth is different, the plain and inferior Songjiang cotton cloth will wear out in one to two years at most, even if it is the best Songjiang cotton cloth and Suzhou cotton cloth, it is also a three-year lifespan.

Later generations always jokingly called the trade between Portugal and Spain and the Ming Dynasty tributary trade, which was naturally a joke, but in the hands of Zhu Yijun, it became a reality step by step.

"Your Majesty, allow me to think for a while, and then give Your Majesty an answer, I need to figure out the key." Sauron wasn't immediately sure exactly how he was going to buy it, and it was tempting to get more cotton at a lower price.

Sauron thought for a while, and then gave up thinking, he didn't understand, why did Emperor Ming make such a thoughtful suggestion, could it be that Emperor Ming was really a good person?

After Zhu Yijun returned to Tonghe Palace, Feng Bao asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to give Li Yashi to..."

The current Tessie is at the end of the feudal system, and even the shackles of religion have not been broken, and it is too early to discuss these, not only too early, but may even cause great harm to Tessie.

Emperor is a special word Caesar in Latin, Zhu Yijun can probably search for key information at a glance, and there is no arrangement, on the contrary, in these books, the Ming Emperor is almost as omnipotent as the god of Taixi.

Although Zhu Yijun always scolded the actuarial wind and abandoned the land, this is indeed actuarial, and it is much more cost-effective to reopen the Western Regions and shed blood in the Hetao.

"If Your Majesty wants to choose the beauties of all nations, there are still seventy-two here." Feng Bao pointed to another stack of picture scrolls, with everything you need to choose.

Gillian has been communicating with the officials of the Siyi Pavilion, hoping to present the credentials to the saint, and the Ministry of Rites finally heard about the matter, so there was this summons.

At this point, Sauron completely understood why the Ming Emperor said that it was better to grab than to plant, for the Ming Dynasty, it was true, and the Ming Dynasty, which has a huge population and large-scale production, is indeed better than a seed.

It seems that as long as there is Jiayuxiong Pass, the northwest will be safe and sound, and the situation seems to be the same, the countries of the Western Regions are very weak, and in the face of Jiayuxiong Pass, they can only sigh with joy, and the products of the Western Regions are not abundant, and commerce and trade are weakening day by day.

Zhu Yijun chose to leave after finishing his work, he hoped that Sauron would make the right choice, and Li Yashi's bell was saved again because he did not add oil and vinegar to the Latin travelogue.

The Ming Dynasty is now open to the sea, the economic center has completely shifted to the southeast, and the ancient Silk Road no longer rings camel bells.

Li Yashi said with great certainty: "Yes, the Ming Dynasty is opening up to the north, and the emperor naturally hopes that more wool will stay in the Ming Dynasty, of course, the 200,000 horses you said can still be satisfied, and in terms of cotton cloth, the output of the Ming Dynasty will be further increased." ”

Shi Maohua believes that without the Western Regions, the Hetao cannot be defended, only the Western Regions are there, and the Hetao is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so that a large number of cavalry can be cultivated, and the mobile force of field warfare can be cultivated, rather than relying on the Mughal State to provide, for generations, when the Central Plains was strong, the Western Regions were under the control of the Central Plains.

Ti Qiqing Street professional, specially left a personal palace, saw Li Yashi sneaky, so he heard about His Majesty, Zhu Yijun with a non-existent jade pendant, killed back, saw this scene.

"Why did the Ming Emperor propose to exchange wool for cotton cloth? Is it good for Daming to do this? Sauron asked directly about Li Yashi, Matteo Ricci couldn't count on it, and now Matteo Ricci is chattering every day, and he is about to become a Taoist priest.

Woolen tweed is always not enough, because the Ming Dynasty is developing Suiyuan and Liaodong, especially Liaodong, if you can have a coat weighing six or seven pounds of outer skin and inner velvet, it will be enough to survive the cold and long winter.

"If you have to buy wool, it's not impossible." Zhu Yijun saw that Sauron did not agree, nor did he urge, and he was not in a hurry, so he really couldn't go on an expedition with sailors, set up cannons on the coastline, and fought to ensure free trade.

Zhu Yijun never thought of banning these social science works, because all social science works only have a standpoint, which is the essence of social science, standing on a certain standpoint to study problems.

To rebuild the Hetao, it is inevitable that the Western Regions must be opened again, and here in Zhu Yijun, there is no such thing as doing half of the thing.

Jingtai five years, also by the subordinate A Zhiyuan killed, the Turpan Kingdom took advantage of the rise of the situation, annexed Hamiwei, Jiajing twenty-four years Hamiwei separated from the Tulupan Kingdom, became an independent kingdom, and since Jiajing twenty-four years began to pay tribute to the Ming.

"Xuan."

"Cindy Maiden, Cindy Celia, a musician." Sauron said sluggishly, is it possible to change the name?

Felipe II's attack on Portugal made the Ming Emperor very angry, so he sent a holy woman as a gift to appease the emperor, in Zhu Yijun's opinion, this gift is insincere, even if it is to buy a few more boats!

Felipe II had no other choice, as he could not find a second supplier.

Since you dare to steal Da Ming's things, then be ready to die.

It's true that Queen Wang's mind is pure, but is Queen Wang really easy to deal with? Feng Bao doesn't think so.

Isn't it to imperceptibly influence the emperor by blowing the wind in his ears, so that the emperor allows Taixi's missionaries to preach, collect intelligence, translate the books of the Ming Dynasty, and increase the influence of the Holy See?

The establishment of these writings depends on the position of the people who read them.

Zhu Yijun said with emotion: "But Envoy Li, have you thought about these things, you think these things are useful in Daming, but if you are in Taixi, are these books of any use except for being burned as heretics?" ”

"Actually, that's what I think, to do big things with a small amount of money, you exchange 200,000 wool for 200,000 cotton cloth, so that 500,000 cotton cloths, wouldn't you exchange less money for enough goods, so that Felipe II's idea can also be realized? Hit the handicraft workshops of England with lots of cheap fabric! Three million silver, you can buy one and a half million pieces of cotton, and you can fill the whole of London! ”

The letter of state is also blunt, and Gillian is a carefully prepared gift.

Shi Maohua used nearly 1,000 words to discuss the importance of the Western Regions, listing more than a dozen reasons.

Shah Mamat is to take the Western Regions Silk Road to the Ming Dynasty, from Jiayu Pass into the customs, after running for a year to be able to face the saint, even the Chinese language has been learned, after the face of the saint, Shah Mamat finally chose sea trade, even if the Strait of Malacca war, also choose sea trade, because the sea trade carrying capacity is larger, and the speed is faster.

Li Yashi took a deep breath, walked out of the door, looked left and right, closed the door, looked up at the roof again, and after making sure that there was no one, he took out a few books from the bookcase in the deepest part of the bookcase in the study and said: "The contradiction theory that I have translated, the first volume of the theory of public and private, the theory of production and the theory of class, and a few volumes of freedom theory, if you can't bring back the travelogue, you won't bring it with you, and these books, please be sure to bring them back." ”

After showing one hundred and eight picture scrolls one by one, Feng Bao waited for His Majesty's choice.

"Small business?" Sauron said dumbfounded.

This is a long-term business, but as long as this business is done for five years and ten years, this business is not enough to see.

"In the first six months, the three woolen official factories weaved 1,600 horses a day, and next year they can at least weave 3,000 horses a day."

"That's all." Zhu Yijun ordered two that looked pleasing to the eye, one was Guo Yunyao, the daughter of Guo Shun of the 100 households in Shunyi, whose biggest feature was that she could ride a horse and was heroic, while the other was named Wang Xiyue, who was from the water town in the south of the Yangtze River and looked quite gentle.

No matter how you look at it, the Ming Emperor is not a good person.

Sauron was confused next to him, what happened? Why did Li Yashi ask for guilt, and why was he scared like this?

"Damn it." Li Yashi kowtowed again, only hoping that His Majesty would be forgiving.

During the orthodox years, Wara continued to fight in the south and the north, and the Taishi also took the lead in substantially occupying all these places, and the Ming Dynasty continued to shrink under the power of Xingwen and Wuwu and actuarial wind, and finally formed the current situation.

Zhu Yijun picked up the dense sparse, thought about it and replied: [The newly planted willow is three thousand miles, which attracts the spring breeze to Yuguan. ]

The more interesting thing about Shi Maohua's dense book is that Shi Maohua spent a long time telling the Ming Emperor that there are mines in the Western Regions!

This is the Jiajing period to discuss the reset, and then open the Western Regions, did not mention the content, and this time Shi Maohua used a lot of space to tell His Majesty that there are mines, such as the Western Han Dynasty in the Altai region to mine gold ore, as well as a large number of iron ore and other mines, "Historical Records, Cargo Colony Biography" and "Historical Records, Tianguanshu" all contain the art of finding the dragon and dividing gold, identifying the topography and landform with experience, finding the seedlings, and then looking for the dragon, and the Western Regions There is also the iron-making official factory of the Han Dynasty.

The queen Chitose has a seven-trick exquisite heart, and she has means and means, and the harem has been so quiet for so many years, all thanks to the queen and queen, the lord of the harem.

Li Yashi bowed his head and said tremblingly: "What the minister sees is that the administrative power is omnipotent. ”

The reason why it is necessary to cultivate the market is that once the Strait of Malacca becomes unblocked, the cotton of the Mughal Kingdom will pour into Daming in large quantities, and the output of cotton cloth will grow rapidly, and the cultivation market should be cultivated as soon as possible.

Zhu Yijun thought that Li Yashi was doing something secretly, it turned out to be a contradiction in translation, saying that this kind of work is really not Zhu Yijun underestimating Taixi, these things are all born on the basis of Ming culture, what can Taixi do with it?

Li Yashi was full of enthusiasm and went down the drain.

The last time the Ming Emperor's letter of state, threatening Felipe II not to annex Portugal, otherwise punitive tariffs would be imposed, which is one of the reasons why Felipe II is no longer obsessed with annexing Portugal.

Zhu Yijun said affirmatively: "Yes, in the fourth year of Wanli, there were 600 woolen woolen woolen yarns per day, and in the eighth year of Wanli, the woolen official factories became three from one, and the woolen woolen wool was woven 1,235 horses per day, with an annual output of 450,000 horses. ”

Emperor Ming finally did what an emperor should do again!

"The minister is shallow." Li Yashi seemed to understand what His Majesty meant, and said again with sincere fear, the most stupid thing about this matter is that he hid it from His Majesty, as if this kind of behavior was not visible, and he spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

The other book is Mishu, from Shi Maohua, the governor of Shaanxi, who mentioned a place that was almost forgotten by the Ming Dynasty, the Seven Guards of Guanxi.

In these days, when the productive forces were underdeveloped and the material was not abundant, many people only had one or two pieces of clothing, which were easy to wear out.

Now Tessie is a variety of Protestant doctrines breaking through the shackles of the Holy See, Tessie has not yet shaken off the shackles of the Holy See, and if you want to read this, I don't know when it will be.

"What is this?" Sauron frowned, realizing that things were not simple, and Li Yashi was so solemn.

"A horse of woolen wool is forty feet, but it is only twelve taels of silver, two hundred thousand horses of woolen wool are only two million taels of silver, a horse of cotton cloth is only two taels of silver, and three hundred thousand horses are no more than six hundred thousand taels of silver, and you add up to only three million taels of silver."

Zhu Yijun waved his hand absently and said, "Excuse me." ”

"Your Majesty, how is the Holy Maiden Cindy doing?" Seeing that business was over, Sauron asked about someone, Cindy.

After Zhu Yijun finished selecting the beauties, he began to review the music, two of which attracted Zhu Yijun's attention, one is Ling Yunyi, the governor of Shandong and Henan, talking about the Henan problem, Qingzhang, census Dingkou, abolishing the lowly status, forming an engineer battalion, setting up an official factory, and returning the field, this is a complete set of combination punches, Ling Yunyi saw the moves, continued to push the executive order, after the emperor's ten kings were repaired, it could be rolled out throughout the province.

Shi Maohua, the governor of Shaanxi, asked the Ming Emperor if he intended to reopen the Western Regions.

The only supplier who could satisfy Felipe II's appetite was the Great Ming, and Felipe II had no choice.

The ore vein will indeed attract the Ming army, Shi Maohua is really accurate!

Zhu Yijun used nearly 1,000 words to approve Shi Maohua's secret sparseness, mainly from the perspective of the court to analyze the difficulties of reopening the Western Regions, which needs to be overcome by the imperial court and the local government together, this is the benefit of dense sparseness, you can communicate privately, the speaker doesn't know the content at all, naturally he can't force Lai Lai, and many problems, Shi Maohua is much clearer than the official.

When China was strong, there was no northwest.

The national letter of France and the national letter of England are the same, a total of four French, Latin, Spanish and Italian colloquialisms, Zhu Yijun can read Latin, the queen mother almost in a pleading tone, hoping that Daming can look more at France, France is a strong country, with a population of 12 million, twice the size of England.

And really speaking, it's not expensive, so many things, a total of less than three million silver.

Even the woolen woolen tweed is not easy to wear out, Zhang Juzheng's python pattern crane worsted wool is made, it has been a few years, it is still brand new, the four-clawed golden dragon is still lifelike, Qi Jiguang has a Wanli three-year imperial gift, and it can still be used with Qi Jiguang's southern and northern wars.

"As a Spain on the back of a sheep, you know that the scale of woolen production is mainly restricted by the supply of raw materials, and Daming has just taken the north captives and carried out captive breeding."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long." Li Yashi still thought that he was hallucinating, and His Majesty let him go so easily? In his opinion, this is the secret of the core secrets of the Ming Dynasty, and it is the culmination of the philosophy of the Ming Dynasty, so he let him go so easily?

"Isn't it just a small business?"

Zhu Yijun also met him once, but he was really not impressed.

Zhu Yijun said as he walked: "It's the land of Taixi, I'm afraid it will live up to his hard work, and if Taixi can study Li Yashi's travelogue clearly, it is already blessed by the ancestors." ”

The end of the Hexi Corridor is Jiayuguan, as long as Jiayuguan is in, there will be nothing in the northwest direction of the Ming Dynasty, and during the Hongwu period, Zhu Yuanzhang set up Hami, Shazhou, Anding, Quxian, Aduan, Handongzuo, naked Jin and other seven guards outside Jiayuguan to operate the Western Regions.

"The sin of the minister deserves death!" Li Yashi was frightened, this time he went to prison again, there was only one way to die, and he couldn't even save the child, he never thought that His Majesty would kill a horse pistol.

Zhu Yijun said gently: "Of course, after all, you are the buyers." ”

"Respectfully to Your Majesty." Li Yashi bowed his head again.

"Bang!"

"Beauty tricks are useless to me, because I have loved people and loved things." Zhu Yijun looked at Gillian and said with a smile: "It's better to talk about business, if France is willing to import cotton cloth, we will bring a large amount of cotton cloth to France next time." ”

Feng Bao, as the envoy of flowers and birds, opened the twelve picture scrolls one after another, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, each of the one hundred and eight people is innocent. ”

Zhu Yijun said that Li Yashi has never been a traitor to Taixi, he loves the land where he was born and raised, and his love is very deep.

"Holy Cindy, she's doing well." Zhu Yijun replied with great conviction.

Li Yashi is not just playing red hair and golden hair these days, but translating this series of the most important speculative achievements of the Ming Dynasty, he is very hidden and hidden, and even in order to paralyze the Ming Dynasty, he began to bow down in front of His Majesty, just to show his deferential appearance.

About 10% of the people in Tessie do not have fox odor, and 10% of the people do not need to shed their hair every year, while Cindy is both, and the reason why she can be elected as a saint is of course related to her purity, innocence and cleanliness, neither pungent smell, nor annual hair removal.

The reason why the beauty trick is useless to Zhu Yijun is because Zhu Yijun has already been hit once.

Wang Yaozhuo, this girl, was sent to the palace by Zhang Juzheng, but Zhang Juzheng did not want to achieve any ulterior purposes, but to let the queen be by His Majesty's side, always reminding His Majesty that His Majesty's subjects are still eagerly looking forward to and waiting for the Son of Heaven to exercise his power to save the people of Wanfang Li from fire and water.
