Chapter 33: What Are You Doing, Upstart?
Li Qing carefully deduced and weighed the pros and cons, and finally felt that it was very necessary.
Daming is too huge, and it is developing rapidly, and in the future, there must be external intervention.
It is foreseeable that the high development of commerce will also breed extreme extravagance, and when people have too much wealth, they will often go to depravity and even pathology......
This is human nature, under the impact of huge wealth, not many people can stick to their hearts.
"Let's plan like this first......" Li Qing sighed faintly, and stopped thinking about this for the time being.
Now is not the time, the Ming Dynasty is far from that step, and the top priority is to solve the problem of the grassland tribes first.
Thinking about it, he still has a lot to do in the future, but Li Qing doesn't feel anything, and it's not a blessing to have something to do.
Otherwise, it's a long life and it's too boring.
Li Qing stretched and began to seriously think about how to deal with these grassland tribes.
For these tribes, Li Qing's philosophy is that they can be treated well, but not preferentially.
First, the Ming Dynasty is not rich; Second, too much preferential treatment will give them a sense of superiority, which will not only breed arrogance, but also seriously hinder the road to integration.
Moreover, he didn't want to absorb the Yuan people and let them live in the Ming Dynasty.
The grassland has the resources of the grassland, and it is a pity to abandon it.
After thinking about it, Li Qing felt that it was the best choice to let these people go to the Hetao.
Due to the geographical reasons of grass, affected by the monsoon climate, the annual rainfall is far from being comparable with that of the Central Plains, coupled with the cold, the farming conditions are extremely harsh, and the crops can hardly be produced.
However, the situation in the Loop is slightly better, but it is only a little better, and in fact, it is still not very suitable for growing crops.
The real advantage of the Hetao area is that it is located in the Yellow River Basin, there are no conditions, conditions can be created, as early as the Han and Tang dynasties, there were irrigation areas here, such as the Han Canal, Tang Lai Canal, etc.
In addition, in the surrounding areas of the Hetao, there are also Huangshui Basin, Taoshui Basin, Luoshui Basin, and Weishui Basin......
It can be said that with a little effort, it is possible to achieve the cultivation conditions.
Then again, the current Ming Dynasty is not the same as the Han and Tang dynasties, not because of political relations, but because of the climate.
The colder climate has a big impact on farming.
But planting mulberry and planting Yongle beans can still be done, especially planting Yongle beans, the frost-free period in severe cold areas is relatively short, and planting Yongle beans is more suitable.
Thinking of this, Li Qing suddenly thought of a stalk.
- Siberian digging potatoes!
Although due to the climate, only one season can be planted a year, but fortunately, the land is vast and sparsely populated, so there is no need to worry about not having enough food to eat......
Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and frowned, "The crux of the matter is...... Those tribes came to join the Ming Dynasty for a better life, and it was not easy for them to go to the Hetao for development! ”
finally recruited so many people, Li Qing didn't want to force people away anymore.
"If you capture the thief and capture the king, and win the support of the tribal leader, the implementation of the policy will be much easier...... Well... Still have to throw money. Li Qing smiled bitterly, "It seems that the little cub has to spit out the money that Shen Xin had." ”
He could imagine what kind of expression Zhu Jianshen would have when he asked for money when the time came.
: It's too much, I haven't covered the heat yet, and you're going to spend it?
……
Li Qing shook his dazed head, only to find that the sky had darkened.
"This day, I haven't done much, but my heart has not been less." After complaining, Li Qing got up and went to Jingshi Street.
At this point, the restaurant is basically closed, but the green building has just opened.
Li Qing asked for a private room, ordered the two girls, had wine glasses in hand, danced and listened to music, and drank until the second half of the night before returning happy......
~
The next day, Qianqing Palace.
"No money, I don't have money." Zhu Jianshen's head shook like a rattle, "You think of a way that doesn't cost money." ”
“…… Your Majesty, don't get excited, this is an investment, if the Hetao area is properly developed, it is only a matter of time before the cost is recovered. Li Qingdao said, "With this good start, the grassland tribes who came to defect later will have a place to go, and they don't have to worry about it anymore." ”
Zhu Jianshen calmed down and said sullenly: "Say, how much do you want to use?" ”
"Probably...... Three million taels. Li Qing sneered.
"What? Why don't you go and grab it? Zhu Jianshen broke the defense and yelled, "Li Qing, you are too much, I haven't covered the heat yet." ”
Li Qing asked: "Is it important to have a good society, or is it important to have money?" ”
"But it doesn't take that much, does it?" Zhu Jianshen snorted, "It's understandable to reward those tribal leaders, but not so rewarded, what are you to be, nouveau riche?" ”
"Isn't it?"
“…… I made a windfall, but I also used it. Zhu Jianshen snorted, "If you reward indiscriminately, the minister doesn't know how to be gracious!" What's more, it's just some foreign ministers who have just defected. ”
Li Qing explained: "Of course, it is not to reward them with three million, but to add up all the big and small matters, such as repairing the irrigation area and the supply ...... in the early stage."
After Zhu Jianshen heard this, his face looked a little better, "The national treasury is really not rich, can you see if you can ...... Less. ”
"Well, I'll try to be as leisurely as possible, spend the least amount of money, and do the most things."
"Now, that's what you said." Zhu Jianshen kicked his nose and face, "When the time comes, you will spend more than the budget, you can add it yourself." ”
Li Qing: "What are you talking about?" ”
I said...... Be trustworthy. ”
Li Qing sneered and nodded: This cub mainly plays a 'I will retreat if the enemy is strong, and I will ride my face when the enemy retreats', but he still can't give a good face.
Li Qing calmed his face and said: "One thing please remember, this state money is not your private property, you are the emperor, yes, you also have the right to deal with this money, but...... The money is Daming's!
Of course, you can also be extremely extravagant, give what you want, and just end up with the name of a faint monarch who doesn't care about the life or death of the Ming Dynasty and abandons the ancestors and society. ”
Zhu Jianshen's face was hot, and he said stupidly: "Look at what you said, I am such a person, Daming is so big, the state has no money, and I have no bottom in my heart!" ”
"It's good that the emperor can distinguish the priorities." Li Qing said indifferently, "It's going to be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon, and it is estimated that Shi Heng and they are not far from coming back, I will go back and prepare, and the morning after tomorrow will not be on the morning court!" ”
I don't come to you twice a month...... Zhu Jianshen was furious: "It's okay, I'm getting busy, it's time to rest." ”
"The minister retired."
"Well, sir, go slowly."
Zhu Jian nodded with a deep smile, and after a while, he walked to the imperial case and sat down, and the smile on his face disappeared visibly.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally slammed the table: "Old thief, the deception is too much!" ”
"Huh~ I still have to take power as soon as possible, I don't want to look at his face anymore, damn, why is he so annoying......" Zhu Jianshen scolded and scolded.
However, he is more or less used to it, and the fierce scolding on his lips will pass after scolding.
Zhu Jianshen is mentally mature, who is presumptuous on the surface and loyal to the country in his heart; Whoever is respectful on the surface and hides evil intentions can still be roughly distinguished, not to mention that Li Qing can not only deter hundreds of officials, but also have real talent and learning.
With such a person, Zhu Jianshen will naturally not go online.
Of course, he didn't dare either.
This bad old man...... It's scary.

"Your Majesty, you're angry again." Zhen'er is coming.
"Hmm......" Zhu Jianshen raised his head, the resentment in his heart disappeared, and was replaced by a doting face, "Why did you come here?" ”
"The doctor said that walking around more is good for the baby." Zhen'er said softly, "The concubine walked and walked, and she came here." ”
She stroked her lower abdomen, which was already slightly bulging, and her face showed a maternal glow, and her heart was full of happiness.
Zhu Jianshen stepped forward and took her hand, and said with a smile: "Let's go, I will accompany you for a walk." ”
"Is the emperor's government affairs done?"
"There's not much going on these days." Zhu Jianshen smiled, "Let's go, go to the Imperial Garden." ”
"yes, okay." Zhen'er smiled.
Maybe everything is going well, soaked in happiness all day long, she is in her thirties, she looks much younger than her actual age, and the privileged life in the palace also makes her more and more beautiful, like ripe grapes.
"Zhen'er, you're so good-looking." Zhu Jianshen said stupidly.
"What's the matter, all the concubines are ......" Zhen'er shook her head lightly, "Queen, the virtuous concubines are younger and more beautiful than the concubines." ”
That being said, but she was still useful.
"Huh...... In my eyes, you are much prettier than they are. "Zhu Jian is deeply affectionate and affectionate.
I can't help but love it in the depths......
"Your Majesty, what's going on outside." Jeonga embarrassedly took a half step back, avoiding his kiss.
Zhu Jianshen was slightly disappointed, but he was not reluctant, and led her to continue walking.
didn't go far, they met the queen mother and the queen, and the two had to let go of each other and come forward to salute.
"Erchen (Erchen concubine) has seen the queen mother."
"Zhen'er has seen the queen mother."
"It's all excused." Empress Dowager Zhou waved her hand gently, she glanced at Zhen'er, and her eyes could not hide her disgust.
Zhou didn't look down on Wan Zhen'er, but disgust, a strong disgust.
I hate this woman who is as big as herself, but she is favored by her son.
After all, in this era, Zhu Jianshen has such a taste...... It's really a little ahead, and it makes sense that Zhou is difficult to accept.
Li Hong is only seven years older than Zhu Wanqing, and Zhu Qizhen can't stand it, not to mention, Zhu Jianshen is seventeen years younger than Wan Zhen'er, and the woman is big and the man is small, so it is even more difficult to be recognized by the world.
Zhou said indifferently: "The emperor has all the opportunities, don't rely on being pregnant, just blindly invite pets, the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji is the most important, delaying the national government affairs, can you afford it?" ”
"What the queen mother said is that the concubine knows that she is wrong." Wan Zhen'er said obediently.
However, her well-behaved did not get Zhou's good face, and her face became more and more gloomy.
It is really not a wonderful thing to be called a queen mother by someone of your own age, and this situation is difficult to accept even in the next generation.
"If you know your mistakes, you have to change them, there are so many slaves in the palace, you have to pester the emperor, right?" Empress Dowager Zhou had a gloomy face, "You can't walk alone?" ”
"Queen Mother, Zhen'er ......"
"The queen mother's lesson is that the sons and concubines ...... Just a little tired, the concubine retired. Zhen'er pulled Zhu Jianshen's sleeves, bowed slightly to Queen Wang, and turned to retreat.
Zhu Jianshen's brows furrowed, he forcibly endured the anger in his heart, and said, "Queen Mother, you hate Zhen'er so much? ”
"Not bad." Empress Dowager Zhou said bluntly, "This palace just hates her." ”
"Why?" Zhu saw a deep urn and said, "Just because she is old? ”
Empress Dowager Zhou: "This palace still wants to ask you, what do you want her, how old is she?" ”
Heart-piercing......
