In order to secure the throne, it is necessary to maintain the sanctity of imperial power as much as possible.

Zhu Qiyu is not as good as Zhu Zhanji, and he established an unshakable legal system with the 'Good Saint Sun' early on.

In view of the fact that no matter how beautiful his throne is, the way in which it was obtained is disputed.

Therefore, Zhu Qiyu is taking the road of sanctification with strength, and there can be tactical defeats, but strategic failures are never allowed.

Only by being invincible can you maintain your divine aura.

With the aura of the Divine Spirit, the young people can trace the trails, and the subjects of the world can have a sense of awe.

The specific strategy for the present is to rely on the defense line built by the Ming Dynasty over the past hundred years, as well as the specially repaired defense line of the Jingtai Dynasty to drag the enemy.

The advantage of the Mongol cavalry is that it is highly mobile, and on a battle line of thousands of miles, it is impossible to defend against it, and there is no way to chase it.

But the disadvantage of Mongolia is that the war potential is not strong and cannot support long-term operations.

One drum, then drummed and declined, and three drums were exhausted, this sentence is particularly suitable for Meng Yuan.

……

Penglai City, the capital of Dengzhou.

Cui Gong, the political envoy of Zuobu in Shandong, was talking with the big businessman Jia Tian Huiqing: "300,000 stone of grain will arrive in Gaizhou within two months, and the imperial court will bid 150,000 taels." ”

When Tian Huiqing heard this, her face was sad: "150,000 taels, 300,000 stone grain, it's really a bit less." Even if you don't consider the cost of transportation, I'm losing money. ”

Cui Gong smiled, although Tian Huiqing is a veritable imperial businessman, and the people standing behind him are people with hands and eyes, but as a parent official who is loved by the people of Shandong and a key cultivation object of Jane in the emperor's heart, Cui Gong still has to try his best to save money for the imperial court.

After receiving Japan, Yue Zheng, the governor of Shandong, was promoted to governor, and Lu Yu, the former political envoy of Zuobu, took over as governor of Shandong.

Cui Gong also rose and moved from the right political envoy to the left political envoy. Recently, Lu Yu has been busy going back and forth between Japan, North Korea, and Jeju Island, and Cui Gong has the final say on the affairs of Shandong.

Cui Gong knew that Tian Huiqing was not satisfied with the price, so he added: "You can take the opportunity to raise grain in the south, and bring porcelain and cotton silk by the way." After transporting the grain to Gaizhou, you can buy ginseng from Liaodong and sell it in Japan.

Oriental trade, the imperial court has not yet been officially opened to the people. I, the political envoy of Shandong, will give you a guarantee, and you can travel unhindered along the way.

Just buying and selling, the money you make is not less than 300,000 stone of military rations. ”

When Tian Huiqing heard this, she immediately agreed. Because the emperor came up with an idea that allowed merchants to transport military rations to the imperial court at a loss, the imperial court allowed merchants to resell goods along the way and earn the difference. Tian Huiqing already knew about this, and if he transported grain once, he could earn at least 58,000 yuan.

The two sides reached an agreement and finalized the instrument. Then Cui Gong took out a bill of exchange and a secret letter: "This is a hundred thousand taels of bills of exchange, you can withdraw it from the official warehouses of the household departments in Beijing, Nanjing, and Penglai City."

When the grain is finished, you will be given the remaining 50,000 taels.

There is an eight-digit password in this secret letter, which is written by the head of the household book, and no one knows the specific number except for the head of the household.

You make sure that the secret letter is sealed correctly, memorize the digital password when you get home, and keep the secret letter properly or burn it.

After getting the bill of exchange in your hand, the head of the official warehouse of the household department will calculate the export order with the special mark on the bill of exchange and the secret book in his hand.

The bill of exchange is correct, and the password calculated by the principal is exactly the same as the password you said, so that it can be paid. ”

"This is a money order?"

Tian Huiqing took a closer look, and heard that the household department was going to engage in foreign exchange, but he didn't expect to finally see it.

Cui Gong said with a smile: "This is the first bill of exchange issued by the Ministry of Households, and the bill is exchanged for silver." You know, the crown prince was also the king of Qi, and the saint handed over Shandong to the prince to practice with the East Palace team.

Therefore, the exchange business of the household department was the first to be launched in our Shandong.

The meaning of the saint and the prince is that it should be run by the household department and connected to the world.

After the household department spreads the business across the country, there is no need to pull the silver cart around when doing business. ”

Tian Huiqing held the bill of exchange and sighed in her heart: The government-run exchange, if this is done, it will be amazing.

The capital and reputation guarantee required to connect the world are really not supported by ordinary businessmen, and they can only rely on the power of the imperial court to last for a long time.

When it is really realized, you can do business in the future, as long as you carry a bill of exchange, you can go to Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong to do business.

Even if you go to Annam and the old port to do business, it is possible to exchange money with a ticket.

In the past, when I was doing business, I was really worried about shipping hundreds of thousands of taels of silver on ships. I can't sleep at night, and I have to guard against pirates and my own subordinates from making money and killing them.

In the future, it will really be able to connect the world, which is definitely a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people.

After sending Tian Huiqing away, Cui Gong continued to be busy planning to transport troops to Gaizhou.

In the past two years, Shandong has suffered disasters, which have greatly damaged its vitality. Therefore, Cui Gong also very much agreed with the emperor's strategy of hiring merchants to transport grain.

Raising 300,000 stone of military rations from the people of Shandong would have to cause a great burden to the people.

Now it's okay, give Tian Huiqing 150,000 taels, as for where he goes to get food, feel free. Whether it is stealing or robbing, as long as he transports the grain to Gaizhou within two months, it will be fine.

Moreover, the bill of exchange was issued by the household department, and the silver was also allocated by the imperial court, so Cui Gong didn't need to worry about it.

The cost paid by Cui Gong was only to transfer five warships from the Shandong Navy Division to escort Tian Huiqing.

With the current strength of pirates on the Oriental Trade Route, five new warships have also smashed them to shreds by light collisions.

……

The second day of the first month of April.

Lingyu Palace, Dongpo Snow Hall.

Zhu Wenfang took the crown princess, Dingguo Gong took Dingguo Duchess, He Yi took Xu Wan, Qiao Feng took Xu Ting, and Han King Zhu Wenjing, Qianguo Gong Mu Cong, and Wuding Marquis Guo Liang.

In addition, there are Pei Dang, Huang Qi, Ruan Zhu, as well as Mrs. An He of the Queen Mother's family, and the four second-grade ladies of Zhu Wenfang's family.

Nineteen people came in from the Lingyu Palace at once, which was really unprecedented.

Zhu Qiyu walked to the east slope with his concubines, and sighed distressedly: "The chickens, ducks and geese that we finally raised, as well as fish and crabs, are all over, waiting to be plucked by them." ”

Lin Xiangyu comforted: "It's good to have someone Huo Huo, it's much stronger than when we first started, just a few people, three or two big cats and kittens, and they can't be lively if they want to." ”

Zhu Qiyu turned over the old accounts: "Just because of this, I want to send away all the women who don't want to sleep, and you have to stop you from living or dying."

Now I understand, isn't it better that there should be fewer women around me? ”

Su Xi echoed: "I knew that the sleeping was such a beautiful thing, and I had to send the other sisters out anyway, and it was enough for the five of us to be left."

At that time, I was stupid, except for Ning Xiang's infatuation with her husband and enjoying it, the rest thought that serving her husband was very humble and undignified.

Looking at it now, it's really regrettable. ”

The other four women did not speak, indicating acquiescence. Five women sharing one man is better than fifteen women sharing one man, so much so that I don't know where it goes.

A few people talked and laughed and came to Dongpo Snow Hall, Xu Ting greeted them from afar, saluted quickly, and went straight to Linglong's arms.

Linglong had to let go of the white fox in her arms.

Xu Ting hugged the white fox and praised it repeatedly: "Oh, it's so soft, so good, so cute, where did my brother get it, if there are more, I will also give my sister one." ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled dotingly: "The people below only came in a few days ago to offer it, and I forcibly stopped it, and they still had to send it."

If you like it, I'll get them two more and offer them. ”

Ning Xiang asked, "What about the prince, what about the king of Han, where did they go?" ”

Xu Ting said with a smile: "I went to catch chickens and fish, I instructed them to take care of the chickens, ducks, geese and fish raised by my brother." ”

The initiator swaggered and admitted.

For this little sister of the Dingguo Mansion, Zhu Qiyu loved it, but just smiled.
