Chapter 676: Wage, It's Just the Right Time!
Coming out of the building, Zhu Gaochi was in a good mood.
In fact, as long as it comes out of Beiping Mansion, whether it is the emperor Zhu Di, or the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, or other officials.
After seeing the development of Beiping Mansion, I have a deep understanding and impulse to use the construction of houses, or construction to promote economic development, and I have also seen its power.
After all, this is not only the case in Beiping Province, but also the economic situation driven by the construction of Goryeo Yan Kingdom.
Now, with the consent of his father, Zhu Gaochi has done it a lot smoother, at least he doesn't have to tie his hands!
And in the building.
As Zhu Gaochi went out, Zhu Di pondered for a long time, and then shouted directly: "It's also lost!" ”
"Your Majesty!"
Yishaha hurriedly stood up.
"Send a message to the Wa Kingdom, let them dig up more silver, forge more pig iron, and send it to Jingshi!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yisha hurriedly answered, and walked out quickly.
"I hope the train can bring a little surprise to Daming!"
Zhu Di looked at the empty temple door and muttered to himself.
……
Soon, the autumn harvest will be.
Even the Jingshi is in a hurry.
Guo An took some guards from the house and went directly to the experimental field to help harvest the rice.
This year's rice, I don't know if it is due to the abundant rain, or the abundance of fertilizer, or some reason, the rice production has increased again.
"Report it!"
After listening to Guo Ang's happy report, Guo An didn't think about it, and said directly.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Guo Ang hurriedly responded.
As for whether someone will jump their feet and abuse behind their backs because of this incident, Guo An didn't think about it at all.
Not to mention whether they dare to resent Guo An, even if there are so many families, they go to Guo An for trouble because of this matter, even if they say something unpleasant behind their backs.
Without Guo An's Shundewei to make a move, Jinyiwei, as well as the imperial court, will destroy those families first.
"Six hundred catties per mu?"
Hearing the report from the household department, Zhu Di couldn't help but be surprised.
"Back to Your Majesty, exactly!"
Yu Xin's face has wrinkled into a chrysanthemum because of his joy.
"Your Majesty, when the king of Shunde County took the four Viscounts of the Guo family to improve the good seeds, the old minister kept watching.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the improved seed can actually make the yield of rice per mu to 600 catties, which is almost doubled! ”
Zhu Di glanced at Yu Xin, and he agreed to improve the good rice.
However, he was still a little uneasy in his heart, and continued to ask: "This year, what is the yield of rice per mu in those fields around Jingshi?" ”
Speaking of this, Yu Xin was even more excited.
"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister has sent someone to count that at least eighty percent of the rice in the fields can reach a yield of more than 500 catties per mu!"
"Very good!"
Zhu Di was even more satisfied.
……
Day 2.
Zhu Di took Zhu Gaochi out of the palace in person and went to the test field of General Mountain.
"Weichen has seen His Majesty, and I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Seeing Zhu Di, Guo An hurriedly took Guo Shen, Guo Bingyong, Guo Zhi, Guo Changchen, and Guo Shanyuan to come over to greet him.
As for Tyrant Zhao, he followed closely behind.
"Guo Qing doesn't need to be so polite!"
This time, Zhu Di was very gentle.
However, after seeing the violent Zhao, Zhu Di was directly stunned.
"What's the matter?"
was originally white and chubby, but this time he was directly black from top to bottom, like an old farmer.
Storm Zhao replied: "Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, the old minister is also learning, how to grow and cultivate food!" ”
"Tyrant also learns this?"
Hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, but he didn't continue to say anything.
He, the emperor, didn't he run out of the palace with the crown prince because of these rice, as well as those potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn?
And Storm Zhao, naturally, didn't think much about it, just laughed.
"Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't know what's wrong, looking at these grains, he can't sit still!"
"It's good that I can't sit still, these grains are the foundation of my Daming Jiangshan Sheji!"
Zhu Di sighed with emotion, and walked straight to the field.
Guo An and the others hurriedly followed behind Zhu Di.
However, it turned out that a large area of golden rice had been harvested to the paddy field, and now there is a large experimental field, and only a few different fields remain.
Zhu Di's purpose is to see these.
After walking for a while, Zhu Di pointed to the large yellow field and asked, "Guo Qing, these sweet potatoes and potatoes can also be planed out, right?" ”
Guo An hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, sweet potatoes and potatoes were planted early, and this will be ready to be planed!" ”
Zhu Di chased after him and asked, "When are you going to plan?" ”
Guo An replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is going to wait for the rice to be completely put into the granary, and the people are free, and then start plowing!" ”
Zhu Di asked again: "If it rains, will these sweet potatoes and potatoes be affected?" ”
"This ......"
Guo An thought about it, and finally said with some uncertainty: "Back to Your Majesty, if it wasn't a heavy rain, it should be fine."
If it rains heavily for several days, it should have an impact! ”
"That's not going to work!"
Zhu Di said directly, "Just hand over those paddies to some people to beat."
These sweet potatoes and potatoes are our Ming baby's bumps, and there can't be any mistakes! ”
Guo An nodded thoughtfully, "Your Majesty, then Weichen will let the guards of the palace come out of two hundred households, and then let some people from Zhuangzi come out to guide on the side." ”
"Let your Shundewei go to shave sweet potatoes and potatoes?"
Zhu Di stopped and looked at Guo An.
"Back to Your Majesty, exactly."
"There will be no complaints behind their backs?"
"Your Majesty, there must be a whining, but they don't dare to complain."
As he spoke, Guo An looked at Guo An with a look of anticipation.
"Your Majesty, why don't you give each of you a sweet potato? Or potatoes? ”
"Huh?"
Zhu Di's expression froze, and he looked at Guo An angrily, "This is your ghost idea!" ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen is wronged!"
Guo An hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, you promised Weichen last year that after this batch of sweet potatoes and potatoes are planted, you will give some to Weichen's mansion." ”
"I told you?"
Zhu Di looked at Guo An with a solemn expression.
"Said, said!"
Guo An nodded again and again, "You have a lot of opportunities, and you have long forgotten about it!" ”
After a while, Zhu Di nodded slowly, "In this way, then I will share some of you!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Guo An was overjoyed.
Immediately, he called Xu Yong over and began to command.
And Guo Bingyong and Guo Zhi have also spontaneously called people.
On the side, Zhu Gaochi looked at this scene with a strange expression.
It seems that these sweet potatoes and potatoes were found by their own teachers, and these fields are also their own teachers'.
And the cultivation of sweet potatoes and potatoes is also the teacher's person.
Now, his own father is so arrogant?
It seems that I still have a lot to learn in the future!
Thinking about it, Xu Yong had already walked over with more than two hundred guards.
All of them had already put down their swords and guns, and their armor had been removed, but they were wearing a thin linen coat and holding various farm tools.
Under Xu Yong's command, everyone entered the field with high spirits and began to shave sweet potatoes and potatoes.
A farmer taught more than a dozen soldiers.
And many of these soldiers were also from the common people, and soon knew how to shave sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Thereupon.
The whole field was suddenly dusty.
The guards had been building up strength for months, and finally there was a place to call for them.
So, one by one, it was like ploughing the ground, not as those farmers taught, but digging a trench directly from the side, and then directly turning over one by one, to ensure that not a single sweet potato or potato would be damaged.
Naturally, not a single one will be missed.
Guo An, on the other hand, took Zhu Di to the tomato field, picked a few red tomatoes, wiped them on his clothes, and found a leeward and shady place, eating tomatoes while watching those soldiers shaving sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Looking, watching, Zhu Di talked about some things again.
"Guo Qing, although there have been some natural disasters in my Ming Dynasty this year, it is still a bumper harvest."
Guo An said directly: "This is where Your Majesty's benevolent government lies!" ”
The corners of Zhu Di's mouth twitched slightly, and he continued: "Thanks to the improvement of grain varieties, I have a lot of grain this year.
The second child's place, as well as Jiaozhi, can bring a lot of food to my Daming.
And those caravans that went to sea, when they came back one by one, they would also bring one or two ships of grain......"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Guo An directly congratulated.
Zhu Di waved his hand and said lightly: "These, thanks to Guo Qing!" ”
Guo An was taken aback, and hurriedly looked panicked, "These things can be done, not only with Your Majesty's trust and support for Weichen, but also with Your Majesty's blessing, Weichen doesn't dare to take credit!" ”
Zhu Di pursed his lips, a little disdainful, "You know how to flatter us all day long, if you don't have these merits, you must be a courtier!" ”
Guo An was full of sneers.
Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi has become a little accustomed to it.
On the side, Guo Shen and Bang Zhao, as well as Guo Bingyong and Guo Zhi, were full of surprise.
They didn't expect that His Majesty would trust Guo An so much, in front of them, they could say anything to Guo An, and even this kind of friend's words.
Moreover, this king of Shunde, who has always been gentle and indifferent to fame and fortune, would actually flatter His Majesty like this!
No wonder......
Zhu Di didn't know what these people were thinking, and he didn't have time to pay attention to it.
But as soon as the topic changed, he began to ask: "Guo Qing, I have a lot of money and food, and we want to completely solve the problem of Warat, who do you think we should send to be the handsome?" ”
"This ......"
Guo An's face tightened suddenly, can this matter be said here?
However, it should also be returned.
"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Wei Guogong and Cao Guogong can be handsome!"
"Wei Guogong and Cao Guogong?"
Zhu Di's brows also furrowed directly.
After a while, he said, "If we drive the ...... in person."
"Your Majesty, by all means!"
"Father, don't do it!"
Before Zhu Di's words were finished, Guo An and Zhu Gaochi roared urgently.
"Huh?"
Zhu Di's face sank.
Guo An hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, you are my Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, with a body of ten thousand gold, how can you be so dangerous."
Moreover, I still have martial arts like Cao Guogong and Wei Guogong in the Ming Dynasty, if you are in charge in person, doesn't it mean that I have no one to use in the Ming Dynasty? ”
Zhu Gaochi also hurriedly said: "Yes, father, you are my Ming Emperor, if you go to lead the army, it will inevitably cause some turmoil!"
Now, my Daming is the time of great prosperity, if there is no you in charge, I am worried about ......"
"Hmph, I see, it's just that you're worried, you're not free!"
Zhu Di thought about it, and then snorted coldly.
And Guo An and Zhu Gaochi explained again and again.
Zhu Di didn't believe it, but he didn't say much.
Guo An and Zhu Gaochi are also reasonable, now the Ming soldiers are strong and strong, can fight well, and there are many generals and colonels with high reputation.
In this way, let Wei Guogong go!
Thinking about it, Zhu Di didn't say anything more about this matter.
"Now, all the kingdoms of the Japanese have surrendered to me!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Guo An hurriedly congratulated.
"It's just that the Japanese people are too poor, and half of them will be hungry in winter!"
"Then I will bring some food to those Japanese people from my Daming!"
"Huh?"
Zhu Di stared at Guo An directly, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes, "Deliver grain to those widows?" ”
As for the violent Zhao and Guo Bingyong, Guo Zhi and others on the side, they were all full of surprise.
Those people are wokes!
Although the Ming Dynasty has captured the Japanese Kingdom, now, the Ming people still hate the Japanese Invaders very much.
"Exactly!"
Guo An nodded affirmatively.
Zhu Di said again: "Guo Qing knows that those Japanese people used to be heinous Japanese criminals? ”
Guo An nodded slightly, "Your Majesty, Weichen knows."
However, Wei Chen felt that those who had been Japanese should have been given eight pieces by my Ming generals.
Even, those behind the Japanese were all exterminated! ”
Zhu Di nodded slightly, it was really so.
However, when I thought of asking Daming to transport grain to those Japanese people, I was still a little reluctant.
"But, after all, it's a widow!"
Guo An smiled lightly, "Your Majesty, you have also seen that those Japanese people are actually a group of people who bully the weak and fear the hard, and they are even more cowardly than the Koreans.
Now I am better than them, and they are like grandchildren meeting grandpa! ”
Hearing this, Zhu Di couldn't help grinning.
"They dared to be disrespectful and slaughtered them!"
Guo An said again, "Your Majesty, now that I want to mine and make iron, I still need to use those Japanese people.
Only by feeding those Japanese people and giving me the gold and silver refined by Daming, as well as pig iron, will there be more.
Now, my Ming is not so short of food, if they get used to my Ming to transport food to them.
In this way, I can also use food to control them! ”
"Controlling ...... with Food"
Zhu Di's eyes suddenly lit up.
Guo An said again: "Your Majesty, in fact, you can also select some strong ones from those Japanese people and transport them to the South and Western Oceans, so that they can continue to mine for me Daming!" ”
“…… You can think about it! ”
Zhu Di frowned and thought for a moment, but he was a little moved.
Overseas barbarians, the Ming Dynasty is not easy to use.
And the people of the Ming Dynasty can't keep doing those jobs that break their lives.
It's just right!
