Guo Ming and Zhu Di belong to the same generation, but in the Guo family in Liaodong, they do not have a deep relationship with Yanwangfu, and the roots of the two families come from different "mountains".

Due to fate, especially the Lanyu case, the Guo family, which belonged to the second-class nobles in the Ming Dynasty, suddenly became a key figure in the local real power faction in Liaodong, that is, the "node".

Zhu Di himself didn't have this idea, he didn't think so far, he didn't know that he would lead the troops out of Liao.

His eyes have always been in the north.

It was precisely because of this experience of going out of Liao that Zhu Di's eyes fell on the Guo family, which laid the foundation for Zhu Di, who had successfully rebelled and became the emperor many years later, and ordered the daughter of the Guo family to become the prince's side concubine.

It can be seen that the experience of the two in Liaodong makes the two of them give each other a good impression, at least in Zhu Di's heart, Guo Ming is good.

Now after Zhu Gaochi's wings, the two families have intersected in advance, and the appeal for marriage was born.

Therefore, in Liaodong, Guo Ming of course did not allow Zhu Di to support him, and gave him a lot of convenience, such as creating "reasons" to stay in Liaodong.

Without the help of the "sitting tiger" Guo family, Zhu Di, as a "guest army", would not dare to act like this "openly".

As for the King of Liao, this person has not even built a royal palace yet, and he is still a young man who has just entered the domain, and there is no one around him, only some eunuchs brought from Ying Tianfu, who have the qualifications to dare to oppose the fourth brother who is nearly twenty years older.

In his heart, he has no relatives, thousands of miles away in a "wild" place, and his relatives and fourth brother are still his dependence.

Guo Ming's temperament is an introverted person, he doesn't say a word, and if he changes to something else, he can't help but open his mouth for a long time.

Zhu Di patted Guo Ming's shoulder and said closely: "The princess likes your girl very much, and she has been thinking about it since she said goodbye last year. ”

"It is her blessing that the little girl can get the love of the princess." Guo Ming said in a deep voice.

Zhu Di nodded, very satisfied with Guo Ming's attitude.

This person has a calm personality, does things in moderation, and is a talent who can take on big things.

This is the difference between middle-aged and young people.

The experience of life has led to more social knowledge, and if you are a young Liao King, where do you have any ideas in your heart.

"The widow has once again discarded his father, trying to promote the in-law of you and me." Zhu Di said comfortingly: "No matter what the final result is, even if it is rejected in the end, the widow will choose the princess from the small household, and the princess will still be your Guo family." ”

Of course, the princess is not as good as the princess, and the difference between one word is like a cloud and mud, but Zhu Di said that the princess will be selected from a small household, so Guo Ming no longer has any worries.

Although the name of the early Ming Dynasty was unacceptable, there were still many people at that time who did not think so and felt that it was promising.

For example, King Qin.

King Qin's concubine is the daughter of a Mongolian nobleman, and the side concubine is the daughter of the founding noble, so King Qin naturally attaches more importance to the power of the concubine's mother's family.

Although the Deng family was implicated in two major cases, resulting in two waves of deaths in the family, the relationship between factions in the army is still there.

Therefore, King Qin's thoughts were boiling, and the candidate for the prince of Ying Tianfu was the daughter of the Deng family.

King Yan's promise to Guo Ming is tantamount to a vague indication of some kind of thought, in the face of this temptation, coupled with the friendship between the two for many days, Guo Ming immediately expressed his position, only King Yan is the first to look forward.

The two sides hit it off.

And Zhu Di controlled the military power of Beiping, and was ordered to leave Liao, with the assistance of Jinzhou and Guo Ming, his prestige in Liaodong became more and more "sinking".

It is not yet time to leave Liaodong, compared to the King of Qin, who won a big victory, and the King of Jin, who is not talented but works hard to catch up, Zhu Di has to be more patient.

The King of Qin had returned to Shaanxi, the King of Jin had also returned to Shanxi, and Zhu Gaochi, who had stayed in Beiping, received a letter from his father informing him that he would stay in Liaodong.

As for the return date, because the chaos has not been settled, the return date has not been determined.

Zhu Gaochi couldn't understand Zhu Di's thoughts.

Like King Qin's thoughts, it is easy to guess, he must be unconvinced, everyone in the world knows, and there are many people who think that King Qin has this strength.

Strength includes not only military power, but also fame and famous weapons.

The identity of King Qin makes him the first person close to the famous weapon, even if the emperor grandson has been decided, but the emperor is young and the emperor is old.

The Lord Shaoguo is suspicious, and it has been the case for thousands of years.

On the contrary, it is Zhu Di, don't look at Zhu Di's control over the military power a lot, but not many people really think that Zhu Di is more threatening than King Qin.

Zhu Di's threat to the country is not as good as that of King Jin.

Zhu Gaochi was "beaten" by Zhu Di several times, he originally thought that Zhu Di did not have that mind, and was forced out by the later situation.

But now some of Zhu Di's actions made Zhu Gaochi hesitate, and he seemed to have guessed wrong.

"There is a kind of meaning of accumulating grain, building high walls, and slowly becoming king." Zhu Gaochi put down the letter in his hand and suddenly thought of it.

I also have a deeper understanding of human nature.

Zhu Di knew that the general trend was impossible, so in some aspects, his mind was not as obvious as that of King Qin and King Jin.

But as a hero with outstanding talents, Zhu Di has done really well in some aspects.

For example, military power and people's hearts.

"It seems that the result of anything has a context to follow, not an abrupt occurrence, Zhu Di's success is accidental, and it is also an inevitable relationship."

No matter what the true meaning of Zhu Di's mind is, his current behavior is beneficial to Zhu Gaochi's plan.

People's minds are the most difficult to guess, Zhu Gaochi can't know Zhu Di's thoughts, nor can he know Ge Cheng's thoughts, let alone Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts.

If Ge Cheng is Jinyiwei's spy, then his industrial development in Beiping can be said to have been shown under Zhu Yuanzhang's nose from the beginning.

If you want to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is against it, then Zhu Yuanzhang did not suppress it, but to say that he supports it, he did not give preferential treatment.

Will Zhu Yuanzhang guess his own thoughts, this old man's plan is clear about people's hearts, and Zhu Gaochi does not dare to underestimate it.

After guessing and guessing, without a clue, Zhu Gaochi gave up.

Their own advantages lie in the context of industry and the development of the times, and it is a fool's behavior to seek the near and far.

Zhu Gaochi gave up the idea of competing with these figures, and turned his head to develop industry with all his might.

"This kind of investment is called the operation of capital, and the operation of capital needs the support of the bottom, otherwise it will be a castle in the air, which will sooner or later lead to collapse, causing an economic crisis, an act of destruction."

Zhu Gaochi held an internal meeting to discuss the preparations for the railway construction chamber of commerce.

More than a dozen shopkeepers, including the Minister of Finance and the President of the Grain Stamp Bank, listened carefully to the explanation of the little prince.

"Iron is produced in the mines, rails are produced in the iron works, and rails are laid by the railways, and the initial income of the railways cannot sustain this operation."

"And the construction of the railway, and need a lot of investment, in Beiping, can be through the means of regulation, the use of the Chinese heavy industry system to absorb, but in Shaanxi and Shanxi, the Chinese heavy industry can not dominate the two places, let alone regulation, then a new model is needed."

Everything in the development of industry in the Ming Dynasty is traceable in Zhu Gaochi's heart, and there is no need to cross the river by feeling the stones.

In 1740, Britain's iron production was 17,000 tons, 40 years later it was 70,000 tons, but in the next decade, it directly doubled to 260,000 tons.

17,000 tons is 34 million catties, which is the beginning of Britain's industrial development.

Beiping has a population of nearly 3 million, and the annual iron output is only five or six million catties, and through three or four years, Zhu Gaochi has increased to 20 million catties.

This achievement is far from comparable to the achievements of later generations in completing the West in 20 years and hundreds of years.

You must know that in the current Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty also has an advantage that later generations do not have, that is, the Ming Dynasty can crush the surrounding area and has an extremely relaxed external environment.

Not to mention the various general trends and knowledge in Zhu Gaochi's hands, which not only has the advantages of central regulation and control, but also does not need to take detours and avoid all kinds of obstacles.

More than a dozen top managers of China Heavy Industries carefully memorized their handwriting, and they were all smart people and doers.

In theory, no one is unconvinced of the little prince, only those who can keep up with the economic theory of the little prince and do things in strict accordance with this theory can make achievements in order to reach today's status.

"Then the future income of the railway, as well as the future income of the mining area, to offset and fully digest the capital."

Two million taels of silver, equal to four million stone grain, this is still the first phase of financing, Zhu Gaochi can't afford it.

The food stamp system built by China Heavy Industry cannot be undertaken, and it cannot be absorbed and regulated internally.

The construction of railways, in Shaanxi and Shanxi, does not have the hub of China Heavy Industry as a social model, so a large amount of capital is required.

Just like the achievements of the United States in building railroads, the plan was achieved by using future earnings and absorbing a huge amount of capital.

"The only problem now is the negotiation with the Qin Palace, and in the construction of the railway, the merchant group must be the mainstay."

On the operation of capital, which business group in the Ming Dynasty can compare with China Heavy Industry, in the railway construction business group, the Chamber of Commerce built under the China Heavy Industry system, naturally dominates the railway construction business group.

Although there is no shadow of Yanwangfu in name, in fact it is still under the control of Zhu Gaochi, which he will not give up.

Otherwise, why did he spend so much energy to develop Shaanxi?

If you can't help him in the Battle of Jingjing, then it is better to turn around and go to other places and wait until the whole country is playing a game of chess.

This becomes an unsolvable problem.

After the meeting, Zhu Gaochi called Zhou Shifeng and whispered: "You can tempt the King of Qin." ”。

The little prince's orders made Zhou Shifeng unaware of his meaning.

The most glorious moment of King Qin has arrived.

But he didn't live long.

There really isn't much time left.

In this case, Zhu Gaochi thought that he could be tempted to make him think that he could control the railway construction merchant group.

"Let people tell King Qin that as long as the railway construction merchant group enters Shaanxi, it is not at the mercy of King Qin's territory to be kneaded, and there is no need to entangle in the name."

Zhou Shifeng was incredulous, and asked rhetorically: "This is also the trouble that his subordinates are worried about so far, does the little prince have other ideas?" ”

"Let's ask my father to write a letter to the second uncle, in the end, he is a brother, and he will finally give three points of thin noodles." Zhu Gaochi casually gave a reason.
