Chapter 259: True Dragon Slayer! Agrarian Revolution!

"Besides, there's one more thing."

Zhu Yunxi continued to speak: "Although Daming is rich now. ”

"The treasury is full."

"But this money, you still have to spend every penny on the blade! There can be no waste! ”

"Don't think that when the days are better, you can enjoy them, and you can let your guard down!"

Peaceful days are always associated with decay and depravity.

But now the Ming Dynasty is far from the time to enjoy, in the upcoming unprecedented change, only bury your head forward, diligently.

Otherwise, there will be too many peaceful days, and it is inevitable that you will lose your fighting spirit.

Even if they know that there are infinite treasures overseas, the elite class who are already satisfied will not have the motivation to look for them.

This is why Zhu Yunxi is dedicated to cultivating a new class.

Because the elite class is already decadent and degenerate, and has no motivation for innovation.

On the contrary, it is the capitalists who are bent on profit, and in addition, they are a new class, so they do not grasp power, and they have the idea of fighting with the powerful.

Enterprising!

"The money in the treasury has been arranged, so don't worry about it."

"In addition to the construction of the national highway, the household department sent another sum of silver to Songjiang Mansion and distributed it to the Jiangnan Shipyard and the magic capital for shipbuilding and the construction of the magic capital."

"We must not let the construction of the magic capital slow down."

Zhu Yunxi arranged all aspects of the matter in place.

Then he said, "This morning, let's get here." ”

"Retreat."

The ministers knelt down and slowly withdrew from the Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Yunxi relaxed at this time, today's morning dynasty was not easy for him, and now Da Ming needs too many directions for him to pay attention to.

It is not enough to only immerse oneself in development and the economy.

Ideology, system, knowledge, economy, military ...... Almost every item needs to be improved in Zhu's opinion.

But there are so many things that there must be.

A hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, in the end, nothing will be gained.

Zhu Yunxi sat in the Fengtian Palace, silently thinking about his plan, checking and filling in the gaps, and constantly deducing.

I want to find out the thread.

"It's really a book that I hate when I use it......"

Zhu Yunxi suddenly felt a little remorseful, he didn't take Mao Xuan class too seriously when he was in college.

I just don't think it's very useful, so I only mixed a seventy or eighty points, just thinking about passing.

In retrospect, this was the real dragon slayer!

But now it's useless to regret it, Zhu Yunxi can only recall as much as possible, and then use the dragon slaying technique he learned to analyze the current situation.

Today's Daming seems to be thriving.

But in fact, there is nothing missing.

Although the treasury is not short of money, it is useless to put money in the treasury.

Only by circulating can we create more wealth!

This can be seen from the fact that later generations continued to emphasize domestic demand, constantly cut interest rates, and wanted to stimulate consumption and let money flow.

Zhu Yunxi must also make use of all the money in the treasury.

At the same time, although the treasury is not short of money, the people of Daming are short of money!

Now the people of the Ming Dynasty are far from being rich, and they can even be said to be poor!

It's good to have food at home.

Not to mention idle assets, in this way, Daming's economy is naturally lifeless and lifeless.

Secondly.

Daming is very short of labor! Very lacking!

People are needed for farming, people are needed for road construction, and when the Technical Research and Manufacturing Bureau comes up with new gadgets and opens factories in the future, people are even more needed!

Labor must not be confined to the land!

It must be liberated!

After figuring out the top priorities of the Ming Dynasty now, Zhu Yunxi also had an idea in his heart.

The next step is to get more money, lots and lots of money.

Then it was distributed to the common people and the landlords and gentry, so that the common people could become rich, have more sufficient consumption power, and by the way, cultivate new capitalists.

Let Daming enter a virtuous circle.

The second is to liberate the labor force and allow more people to enter the labor market.

Instead of being tied to the fields, or being a slave in the house of a powerful family.

There is also the need to develop the new army as much as possible, to abolish the old army, to abolish the system of guards, and to make the soldiers of these guards a new labor force.

When the time comes, with the combat power of the new army, the Ming Dynasty will not need so many soldiers at all.

According to statistics, there are 10,652,870 households in today's Ming Dynasty, with a total of 60,545,812 people.

Plus some black households.

Zhu Yunxi estimated that there should be about 65 million people.

And now the army of the Ming Dynasty has as many as 1.91 million, and all of them are in the prime of life!

Of the 1.91 million troops, the five battalions of the Guangjing Division accounted for 200,000.

For ancient times, the number of troops of more than 2 million was not much, after all, the Song Dynasty was known as the 800,000 forbidden army, and tens of thousands of troops were stationed in every feudal town in the Tang Dynasty.

But for Zhu Yunxi, the number of this army is slightly larger.

After all, the population of more than one billion in later generations, and the total number of troops was only more than two million, and the proportion was only 10 to 20 times that of the current Hongwu Dynasty.

Encroaching on too much labor!

That's a good workforce!

"It seems that the research and development of military technology cannot be stopped......"

Zhu Yunxi intends to continue to let the Technology Research and Manufacturing Bureau build new weapons and improve the quality as much as possible, rather than relying on brainless accumulation of numbers to maintain the army's combat effectiveness.

In this way, the old army can be constantly eliminated.

Reduce the number of troops to about one million, and release nearly a million young and strong laborers!

However, we need to take our time in this regard, and we must properly resettle these eliminated troops, otherwise once these young and strong people are eliminated, there will be no suitable post arrangement.

There will be a great mess.

Zhu Yunxi is not so stupid and makes trouble for himself.

After a long time of thinking.

Zhu Yunxi also figured out his future thinking in his heart, making money, getting people, and cultivating a new class!

Everything revolves around these three directions!

It is quite simple to make money, as long as you continue to issue more treasury bonds, print more paper money, and Zheng He conquers the Japanese state, and goes to the Japanese country to get back a large amount of silver.

To get people, you can start from the aspects of increasing agricultural production, freeing domestic slaves, and streamlining the army, and Zhu Yunxi does not necessarily have to start from the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Captives are also laborers!

Wa Kingdom, Northern Yuan, Annam, Western Regions, and even overseas ......

This world lacks everything, but there is no shortage of people!

And the third point is the real difficulty...... I want to cultivate a new class with my own hands, but I also want this new class to not get out of control......

The difficulty is higher than the sky!

"Harvest the field!"

"If you want to solve these problems, in the final analysis, you still have to harvest the fields!"

An inspiration suddenly flashed in Zhu Yunxi's mind!

It's as if I've realized something!

Only by taking all the land into the Ming Dynasty and then distributing it to the people.

In order to solve these problems once and for all, fundamentally solve!

Collecting land can take the opportunity to send money to the people and to the landlords and gentry, thus giving birth to a new class.

At the same time, it can also solve the problem of unified field tax that is currently a headache for Zhu Yunxi.

As long as everyone's land is official land, the problem of land tax is no longer complicated! It's also better to formulate!

And state-owned land has the advantage of controlling the amount of land owned by each person and limiting one person from owning too much land.

There is no longer any possibility of making a fortune from farming alone.

forced those landlords and gentry to find new ways.

And at this time, they have a large amount of silver taels in their hands, and with a little guidance, they will inevitably embark on the road of opening a factory!

Zhu Yunxi seems to have found the lifeblood of all problems.

The fundamental solution to all these problems is to harvest the land and reform the land!

"My wisdom is far inferior to that of a great man......"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head and sighed lightly.

Standing on the shoulders of his predecessors, he thought about it for a long time, and he didn't know that the great man had found a way out of the darkness in the first place......

Walk out of the Fengtian Temple.

The sun is rising.

Blue skies.

The early spring sunshine is warm but not hurtful, and selflessly shines on the earth.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the red sun hanging high in the sky.

I couldn't help but be stunned......
