Actually, you don't have to worry too much!

Chen Anjun, who you stayed in Nandu, even dared to kill the people of the ceremonial supervisor and the Zhongyong battalion, he was indeed a talent!

With him looking at Tianyin Pavilion, no one dares to be presumptuous!

Besides, after I received the news, I have ordered Cui Chengxiu to be on guard around Tianyin Pavilion!

So, you don't have to think about Nandu, you can write songs for me with peace of mind! ”

Judging from Wei Zhongxian's eyes and tone, it doesn't look like he is lying!

Wang Li was wondering!

On the southern side of the capital, there are two "hundred households" of Chen Anjun and Sun Jiren;

Coupled with the prestige of the West Factory, ordinary people will never dare to make a mistake;

At this time, Zhu Youzhen needed himself, and he had no reason to move Tianyin Pavilion;

The first assistant of the cabinet, Wen Tiren, has no reason to move the Tianyin Pavilion;

Zhou Yanru, who was dismissed and returned to his hometown, should not have the courage;

The military department of Nandu, Shangshu Shen Yongmao, had a very unpleasant quarrel with Tianyin Pavilion and the East and West Second Factory;

This person is the one most likely to stumble!

Of course, more than a dozen vassal kings who are close to Zhu Zhishu also have such energy!

Now the problem is that you are in the light, and the enemy is in the dark!

Although Wei Zhongxian has arrangements, he can't completely pin his fate on others!

It's too late to send troops and horses, at least remind them so as not to be caught off guard!

So, a few carrier pigeons took to the skies!

……

Wei Zhongxian had known about the arrival of the "inspection team" for a long time.

However, Wei Zhongxian came to Chengdu secretly, and the "inspection team" did not know about it.

Tomorrow's big wedding of Zhu Zhishu, Wei Zhongxian has no interest.

The purpose of his visit to Chengdu was just to ask about the response to the "decline in trade", and by the way, he got a new song suitable for Kou Baimen.

Wei Zhongxian was even less interested in the process of composing the soundtrack, and after watching it from the side, the person disappeared.

However, two hours later, the guy hurried back.

"Princess, what are those people by the Jinjiang River, playing with four people at a table? It seems to be fun! ”

"Mahjong!"

Wang Li smiled indifferently, and said lightly: "That thing is not suitable for collecting taxes, and it is useless for you to learn it!" ”

"No!"

Wei Zhongxian shook his head, his gaze was unusually firm: "That thing can collect taxes!" Moreover, you can collect a lot! ”

Cut!

Wang Li snorted disdainfully, too lazy to discuss this issue with Wei Zhongxian.

At this moment, Wei Zhongxian wants to transplant mahjong to the south and then find a way to collect taxes, and this idea itself is not wrong!

However, if you want to popularize it in the south, I'm afraid it won't be so easy!

In fact, Wang Li's promotion of mahjong in Sichuan is indeed for tax purposes!

It's just that not now!

The little mahjong by the river, a game is only a few pennies to win or lose, how much tax can be drawn?

Only when it is popularized and moved into the casino will it be time to collect taxes!

At this time, Sichuan just breeds the soil for "playing mahjong"!

Because, more than one million Sichuan people have become full-time "wage workers"!

They have some silver in their hands and a steady income, but they are not bound by land!

I work six or seven hours a day, and I can't spend the rest of my time sleeping!

If you don't play mahjong for fun, you are likely to gather people to make trouble!

It was freezing on this day, but many people deliberately moved the mahjong table to the river despite the severe cold, just to show their superiority!

Because, people who can have time to play mahjong, people who can have money to play mahjong, are people with stable income!

Let those "farmers" who get up early and are greedy for darkness and dare not rest at the end of the year are envious!

Stimulated by mahjong, many people who were still waiting and watching transferred their land to the West Factory and became "wage workers" who served in "uninterrupted" service!

When he first arrived in Sichuan, Wang Li only wanted to be a big landowner.

It wasn't long before I found out that I was not only a big landlord, but also a capitalist!

I remember that it was said in the textbooks that foreign capitalists turned "serfs" into "wage workers" by forcibly taking away the land of serfs by violent expulsion!

This is a bloody and violent process!

And himself, unintentionally, actually used a peaceful way to let the people take the initiative to give up their land!

He is also respected as a saint by the people, and he is grateful to Dade!

So, the time is also, the luck is also!

The opportunity to make money is coming, and nothing can stop it!

The melodious music sounded, and Wei Zhongxian was still thinking about how to draw taxes, and he didn't pay much attention to it.

However, the courtesan's tactful and bright singing and lyrics made Wei Zhongxian's eyes suddenly light up!

“

I came from the mountains with orchid grass;

Plant in a small garden, hoping that the flowers will bloom early;

I watch it three times a day, and it takes a lot of time;

The orchid is still there, and there is not a bud;

In the blink of an eye, autumn arrives, and the orchid is moved into the greenhouse;

The dynasty is frequently cherished, and the night is not forgotten;

Looking forward to the spring flowers, I can fulfill my long-cherished wishes;

The garden is full of flowers, adding a lot of fragrance.

”

This "Orchid Grass" stolen from later generations, just like "Virtuous Loads", does not have the fat powder flavor that Qinglou songs should have!

But its soundtrack and lyrics can make people feel refreshed and forget the worries of the world!

If you drink it from the mouth of a nine-year-old girl, it will have a unique flavor!

"Okay, that's it!

The prince is really a man of God, hahaha! ”

Wei Zhongxian slapped his thigh with excitement, as if he saw the wealth of Tianxian Pavilion rolling!

After confirming that there were no errors or omissions in the lyrics and score, Wei Zhongxian did not want to stay for a moment.

He happily threw out a stack of silver tickets and hurried away with the courtesans and courtesans.

……

Tomorrow will be Zhu Zhishu's Hongmen Banquet!

The timely arrival of the "inspection team" made Wang Li secretly happy!

If this guy dares to attack Jinyiwei, even if it is not a rebellion, it will anger Zhu Youzhen!

When the time comes, if this guy dies in the scuffle, it makes sense, right?

It makes sense that his two sons also died in the melee!

Then, according to the order of succession of the princes of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zhishu's position as the king of Shu should be passed to his third son, Zhu Pingzhang!

This guy is only nine years old, and he no longer has the appeal and leadership!

The Zhu clan in Shu has become leaderless!

From then on, they could only cower obediently!

It's just that the Jinyi Guard, who went to greet the "inspection team", didn't receive anyone!

It is said that the "inspection team" landed on its own in the waters of Jianyang County!

Needless to say, these guys have gone to people's homes again!

It's really an unannounced visit!

This group of eunuchs and the guards of the loyal and brave battalion actually disguised themselves as merchants' horse teams, and the soldiers were divided into four routes, and went to the people's homes to "ask for directions"!

"Sons, if you want to buy silk, you should go to the silk weaving factory outside Chengdu! Jianyang's side is just a silkworm workshop, not a textile one! ”

It was a woman in her thirties, who had only opened about half a foot of the courtyard door.

Judging from the wooden comb and red rope in her hand, she should be tying the hair of the girl next to her.

Wang Chengen noticed that the red rope on the woman's hand turned out to be a bright red silk fabric!

What is even stranger is that the woman's hut is dilapidated, but she is dressed in blue-purple embroidered satin!

Inside the thick satin, it is an earthy gray coarse linen fabric!

The girl next to her is about seven or eight years old, and her coat is still a high-end silk fabric!

The coats of these two people are worth sixty taels to say the least!

It is very incommensurate with their dilapidated hut and the burlap fabric inside!

Strange, really weird!

Could it be that the fabric of their coat is an imitation of silk fabric?

Why is it so realistic?

"Uh...... This lady, this is your daughter, right? Wang Chengen took two steps forward, wanting to see the fabric on the woman's body.

Unexpectedly, this small act made the woman immediately alert!

Carefully blocked the door: "This son, if you want to buy silk, you should go to Chengdu!"

Slave ...... The man of the slave family will be back soon......"

The woman saw that the door was about to close, so Wang Chengen hurriedly closed the door: "This lady, please don't misunderstand......

I heard...... I heard that the silk workmanship in Chengdu is good...... I want to see if the fabric of your clothes is from Chengdu ......"

Speaking of the fabric of the clothes, the woman's face was a little more proud: "That's right, this is the best fabric in Chengdu Mansion!"

If you go to Chengdu to pick up the goods, you will make a lot of money! ”

As soon as the words fell, the woman took advantage of Wang Chengen's inattention and suddenly closed the door!

Wang Chengen touched his nose, but he didn't want to give up easily.

I still wanted to ask, but I heard the voice of the little girl in the hospital: "Mom, I want to eat potatoes and roast pork ribs again......"

"Oh, why is your mouth so greedy? Didn't you just eat it yesterday? ”

"Mom, you remember wrong, yesterday I ate garlic sprouts back to the pot meat!

That meat is so fat, I want to eat potato roasted pork ribs......"

"Eat, eat! Tie your braids, and mom will do it for you!

After eating this meal, don't eat it again, you have to leave some for your father!

If you don't have meat to eat during the Chinese New Year, you'll have to make the neighbors laugh! ”

"Good ......"

The girl let out a cheerful laugh and sat down obediently on the small stool.

Through the crack in the door, the woman can be seen smiling kindly, skillfully tying the girl's hair.

To Wang Chengen's surprise, there were really a few pieces of bacon hanging on the eaves behind the woman!

This posture, to say the least, is seven or eight pounds!

Before this, the other families that Wang Chengen visited were similar to this one!

The clothes on the body are more or less silk fabric!

At home, there is more or less some pork!

Wang Chengen couldn't believe that this was actually a mountainous area in Sichuan!

Such a standard of living is almost equivalent to the people of Beijing!

An hour later, several unannounced people gathered in the county seat, and they were even more shocked!

Unexpectedly, more than thirty percent of the people have silk coats on their bodies!

The smiles on everyone's faces were even brighter than the people of Jingshi!

"Fathers-in-law, you have seen it with your own eyes! My prophecy of returning to Beijing last time has really come true! ”

Cao Huachun's face was full of hesitation, took a deep breath, and continued: "If I guessed correctly, at the end of the three-year period, most of the people in Sichuan will wear silk fabrics!"

The people of Sichuan will not only not go hungry, but they can also afford to eat pork!

At that time, the tax payment of Sichuan Province would not be less than one million per year! ”

Wang Chengen nodded, but Fang Zhenghua was a little puzzled: "Gonggong Cao, the guard of the Zhongyong Battalion, has infiltrated many people's homes;

However, many people did not have much surplus food in their homes!

It is estimated that it will only last for a month at most!

What do they eat before the wheat is cooked?

Don't you think it's strange that this is the case? ”

"Yes, what's even stranger is that they're not in a hurry!" Gao Qiqian looked at the people in the past, and became even more puzzled:

"They can wear silk fabrics, so why don't they spend some money and renovate their huts?

Behold, many of the people's dwellings are expected to collapse within a year! Why aren't they in a hurry? ”

"You don't know, but I do!

These people just go home to live for a month during the Chinese New Year! Zhang Yixian held a rock sugar gourd in his hand, and entered the teahouse with a smile: "

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, at least one million people will go to various construction sites or workshops.

They have food and shelter there, and they are paid a tael of silver a month!

Therefore, these people don't care how dilapidated their huts are, and they don't hoard too much food! ”

"Workshop? What workshop? Wang Chengen looked confused, and hurriedly asked: "What kind of workshop can accommodate more than one million people?" ”

"Huh! You only visited the people's homes, but didn't you go to the brick kilns in the west of the city? ”

Zhang Yixian took all the remaining three sugar gourds in his mouth and continued: "That brick kiln is the largest brick kiln I have ever seen!"

At least, it can accommodate more than 2,000 people!

I asked the people who guarded the brick kilns, and there were more than 50 such brick kilns all over Shuzhong!

In addition to brick kilns, there are more than 300 silkworm workshops, 20 gunpowder refining workshops, more than 30 cement refining workshops, six large silk weaving workshops, and two soap workshops in Shuzhong!

From Xuzhou Mansion to Wulian Peak, within a range of 200 miles, there are more than 100,000 road construction sites!

On the side of Lizhou Mansion, there are also road construction sites with more than 20,000 people and large lane coal mines with more than 50,000 people!

How many people are needed to work on these construction sites and workshops?

The number of cargo ships coming and going on the Tuojiang River is no less than that of the Grand Canal!

In another three or five years, Sichuan is likely to be more prosperous than Beijing!

Long live the power of the people, let the prince go to Sichuan to change the law, and sure enough, he didn't see the wrong person!

If the law change is successful, if it is promoted nationwide, within ten years, Daming will usher in a new prosperous era! ”
