Chapter 625 Dare to Love This Is a Den of Liars!
"Do you have a solution?"
After Zhu Yunxi was surprised, his eyes lit up immediately.
Right!
This guy is a well-known old Yinbi, and the headaches of normal people are nothing to him!
"There are a few..."
When Yang Shiqi heard this, he thought he was a good guy, he didn't even think of a way, this old man just opened his mouth a few times!
"May I ask Mr. Zhang, what can you do to prevent a riot of millions of slaves?"
Zhang Zongjun pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"Temporarily, there are three methods of upper, middle and lower."
"The worst strategy is to divide the construction into sections. Divide a million people into groups of about 10 people, and let them disperse the construction on different sections of the road. When the overall project is almost done, they will be gradually dispersed."
Zhu Yunxi nodded when he heard the words. He also thought about this method just now, but it is more suitable for building railways, rather than dealing with the current construction of Guihua Industrial Zone.
After all, the construction of an industrial zone can only be done together, but with a huge project involving millions of people, it is hard not to have accidents.
"What about Zhongce?"
"The best strategy is to catch some nobles and let them assist in the management of alien slaves."
"As long as we control the nobles and their families, they will naturally have a way to make their fellows work for us!"
Yang Shiqi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, isn't this just using barbarians to control barbarians!
"high!"
"Your Majesty, I think Master Zhang's method is very good. Now we happen to have a lot of Mongolian and Chagatai slaves who have not been resettled. We just choose some nobles from these two places and let them lead this group of slaves for us. "
"In addition, General Lan has captured many slaves during his several great victories. As long as we follow Master Zhang's methods, we should be able to make them work for us honestly!"
Zhu Yunxi asked calmly after hearing the words.
"What's the best policy?"
Zhang Zongjun smiled bitterly when he heard the words.
"Your Majesty, the cost of the best strategy is too high. It doesn't matter whether you say it or not."
"Tell me, maybe I can bear it?"
"The best policy is to give them enough food and treatment, and then give them a household registration as Qimin, so that they can work with hope."
"Only in this way can they burst out with the greatest enthusiasm for work and create more wealth for our Daming!"
"But the cost is too high. It's very difficult to just feed them, let alone make them eat well..."
Zhang Zongjun stayed in the cabinet all the time, helping Zhu Yunxi handle the government affairs, and knew the current financial situation of Ming Dynasty well.
In general, Ming Dynasty is not short of money now.
Opening up sea trade for many years has earned Daming a lot of gold and silver.
But gold and silver are just money, they cannot replace food, drink and clothing.If you want gold and silver to have real value, you must have enough food and cloth.
Therefore, in recent years, Ming's currency casting has always been hindered by agricultural and industrial output values, and he dare not mint too much currency, for fear of causing inflation and causing bigger problems.
These issues were also learned after he went deep into the government and often discussed with His Majesty the Emperor.
Otherwise, before this, he never thought that too much court money was a bad thing.
Just when Zhang Zongjun thought that the best strategy was lost, he suddenly heard Zhu Yunxie say such a sentence.
"It shouldn't be difficult if you just eat enough..."
"Your Majesty, are you serious?"
"Even if we have a train, we can transport rice directly from Jiangnan to Guihua City, but have you ever thought that our grain production in Jiangnan is limited, even if we include rice from Vietnam, India and other places? ah!"
"And the rice from Vietnam and India has to support Jiangnan, otherwise the industry in Jiangnan will have to be suspended..."
Hearing this, Zhu Yunxi made a gesture of calm down.
"Don't be in a hurry..."
"I just said that it is not difficult to eat enough, but it is difficult to eat well."
Zhang Zongjun rolled his big eyes when he heard the words, and muttered.
"It's not easy to eat enough!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly.
"Zhang Zongjun, did you forget that we still have a potato?"
Zhang Zongjun's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, do you mean that potatoes have been successfully tested?"
Zhu Yunxi nodded.
"almost!"
"This year, the people in the south of the Yangtze River have planted a lot of rice, and the output should be very rich. However, the people in the south of the Yangtze River have been used to eating rice since ancient times, so the demand for this product should not be great."
"We can buy it in the name of the imperial court. While growing food for the people in the north, let them plant a large amount next year, and at the same time give it to the slaves as rations, so that they can use it to eat."
Zhang Zongjun clapped his hands and praised in admiration.
"This method is very good!"
"We can also plant more of this plant in Hetao, and we can even conquer the Western Regions with this plant in the future!"
Zhu Yunxi discussed the details with Zhang Zongjun and others, and immediately finalized a series of decrees such as expropriation of potatoes and slavery.
Nanjing Household Department.
Chen Zongli, the Minister of Household Affairs, felt dazzled after receiving Zhu Yunxi's latest decree.
"The Ministry of Households collects potatoes at the price of one penny per catty. There is no limit to the quantity. The more the better."
Chen Zongli repeatedly confirmed the signing and confirmed that this was really an order issued by His Majesty the Emperor, so he rushed to the small courtyard next to the Forbidden City to report to Lao Zhu.
"Your Majesty the Great Emperor, something is wrong, and His Majesty the Emperor is going to mess around again!"
Lao Zhu was hiding in the courtyard and reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when he heard this, he jumped off his chair in fright.
"What's wrong!"
"But what happened to our eldest grandson!"
Chen Zongli stepped forward to comfort him.
"No... Your Majesty just issued a new imperial edict to... ask the Ministry of Households to collect potatoes..."
Old Zhu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Ugh!"
"Isn't it just a collection of potatoes, I'm going to make you anxious!"
"How much?"
"Back to Taihuang, His Majesty didn't say anything, he just said that the more the better!"
"This……"
Lao Zhu was also surprised when he heard this.
Daming has already started wars in several places. Although there are no strong enemies at sea, as long as the fleet sails past, they will warmly welcome the master of Daming.But the mainland is actually at war with several big countries such as the Timur Empire and the Golden Horde.
Moreover, it is still in the stage of strategic stalemate, and there may not be any results in three or two years.
However, the grandson suddenly confiscated so many potatoes, there must be another big movement!
Shouldn't you be fighting someone else again?
"Come on, send a telegram to ask that grandson what he wants!"
"promise!"
Not long after, the Telecommunications Office sent back Zhu Yunxi's detailed plan. After reading it, Lao Zhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately!"
"This Nisun just wants to build a bigger workshop, nothing should happen!"
"Just follow his orders!"
"promise!"
After Lao Zhu sent Chen Zongli away, he was no longer in the mood to read, so he quietly left the small courtyard with Qin Deshun and a few guards, and went to the Jinyiwei Prison to chat with Old Shisan.
Ever since Zhu Gui was imprisoned in Beizhen Fusi, he hadn't seen anyone he knew for a long time.
When he suddenly saw Lao Zhu walking into the yard, the grievance and resentment accumulated in his heart poured out all at once, hugging Lao Zhu's thigh and crying bitterly.
"Father!"
"My son is guilty of death, please give me the death of my father, woo woo woo..."
Lao Zhu looked at the emaciated old thirteen, and felt mixed feelings in his heart, and his hatred for Ni Sun +[-].
"Old Thirteen, you are suffering..."
"Father, I deserve what I deserve. If I hadn't acted arbitrarily and robbed the army without permission, His Majesty would not have punished me..."
"I...I really can't stand it anymore. Please let me die, wow, wow, wow..."
As soon as Lao Zhu heard that Zhu Gui was crying so sad, his loving father's heart immediately came to him.
"fart!"
"How can we be willing to let you die!"
"Furthermore, your eldest nephew didn't tell you to die!"
Zhu Gui cried when he heard the words.
"Then why did you lock me up all the time? He didn't even let me go out to kowtow to you after my father's birthday. He just wanted to lock me up for the rest of his life, and lock me up in this big prison!"
"This……"
Lao Zhu really couldn't explain this matter, he felt sensitively that the grandson must have his own arrangements, but he couldn't ask, so he could only wait for the grandson to say it himself.
"Ugh!"
"You can change your clothes and move to our place starting today, but you are not allowed to show off or contact old friends. Just be our bodyguard first!"
Zhu Gui was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Really?"
"Father is going to let me out?"
Old Zhu gave this silly son a look.
"No!"
"You are still in jail in Jin Yiwei in name only, but we lack a bodyguard by our side!"
"Oh oh oh, I understand..."
"Son, go change your clothes now!"
Zhu Yunxi knew about it the day Lao Zhu brought Zhu Gui out of Fusi, Beizhen.
But he didn't say anything, he just told the two tigers to take good care of Lao Zhu and Zhu Gui, and continued to work on his century-old plan.
After Lao Zhu brought Zhu Gui back to his residence, in addition to urging him to study every day, he took him out to watch plays, listen to music, or inspect workshops and factories in various places in his spare time, so that he could see the ever-changing changes in Da Ming.
Under the advice of Lao Zhu, Zhu Gui became more stable in temper and personality, and added a lot of new knowledge.
At the very least, he knows how many steps it takes to turn a pile of ore into steel, and what advanced processes are involved.
Moreover, through these travels, he gradually realized the gap between himself and Zhu Yunxie.
"Father, my son seems to understand..."
"Understand what?"
"I understand why the eldest nephew looks down on us uncles..."
Old Zhu chuckled when he heard this.
"It's okay, all our painstaking efforts are not in vain!"
"Do you still hate your eldest nephew?"
Zhu Gui shook his head when he heard the words.
"Don't hate!"
"Father, in fact, I have never hated my eldest nephew. I have never hated him before, and I will never hate him in the future."
"Just seeing Daming's current strength, my son... how should I put it..."
Seeing that Zhu Gui was stuck for a while, Lao Zhu suddenly said two words.
"Lost?"
Zhu Gui nodded like a chicken pecking rice when he heard the words.
"Yep!"
"Just a little lost!"
"I feel that I have been left too far behind, and I can't catch up even if I try to catch up!"
"When my son and the rest of the kings were thinking about the mess in the fief, the elder nephew's eyes had already passed over this land and looked to the other side of the sea!"
"Compared to my eldest nephew, we uncles are really short-sighted and have no ambitions..."
"It's not too much to call us trash!"
Old Zhu nodded in satisfaction.
"It's not bad for you to have this awareness, but it can't be said that it's all trash. At least your second brother's vision is quite high now."
"Oh?"
Zhu Gui looked down on his second brother since he was a child, and always felt that his second brother was ruining the face of the royal family, even earning women's money.
Now that he suddenly heard his father praise his second elder brother so much, he felt quite aggrieved.
"Father, your words..."
Old Zhu interrupted Zhu Gui and just took him to a place.
"Look here!"
Zhu Gui looked at the plaque on the door, and saw that it said "Golden Island Immigration Office", signed by His Royal Highness Zhu Xi, former King Qin of the Ming Dynasty.
"Father, this is..."
"This is something your second brother tinkered with. We felt ashamed of him and ignored him."
"It is said that he has recruited tens of thousands of Ming people, and as soon as the monsoon arrives, he will set sail with him to the Golden Island to dig for gold!"
"This……"
While Zhu Gui was dumbfounded, King Qin in the Huanghuangzhou Immigration Office was warmly receiving every citizen who came to sign up, and granted them official titles and wishes on the spot.
"Villain Sun Mazi, pay homage to His Royal Highness King Qin!"
"Can you read?"
"The villain knows a few characters, and can read through a thousand characters!"
Hearing this, Zhu Xing stood up excitedly from his chair.
"Oh, a great talent has come!"
"Since you have such a great talent, then I will make you a civil servant and be responsible for registering the roster for me!"
When Sun Mazi heard the words, he kowtowed in gratitude.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your reuse!"
"But the villain has something to ask first, how much does His Highness plan to pay the villain a month?"
"In Daming, ten taels of silver a month, when we go to Huangjinzhou, ten taels of gold a month!"
"what?"
Sun Mazi's eyes almost popped out of his head when he heard this. He never expected that King Qin would be so generous here, and that even a crook like him could get such a high salary!
"His Royal Highness King Qin is above me, the villain Sun Mazi is willing to die for His Highness!"
"You go to the clerk to report and get the hundred-household badge."
"promise!"
Zhu Xi sent Sun Mazi away, and continued to meet the crooked melon and split dates who came to serve.
It's not that he doesn't want to recruit some high-level talents, it's because of his current reputation that he can't recruit!
Now he just wants to fool tens of thousands of people to go to Golden Continent with him as soon as possible, and then build his own empire!
As for talents... we can only wait until they are there and slowly develop them.
Fortunately, he brought a lot of gold and silver when he came back from the Golden Continent this time, and only then did he have the start-up funds for recruiting troops.
After Sun Mazi received his waist badge and hundreds of household clothes, he was about to go back to his hometown and pretend to be a bully when he was stopped by the guards of the King of Qin.
"stop!"
"After entering the Immigration Department, you can't leave. You can leave if you want to. You have to take off your clothes and leave this badge before you can leave!"
Sun Mazi asked in confusion upon hearing this.
"What?"
"We are not a hundred households now, why can't we wear this?"
The guard snorted coldly.
"This is the official uniform of hundreds of households in the Golden Continent, and it will only work there!"
"what?"
"It turns out that this official uniform does not belong to Daming!"
"Then let's be a bastard Baihu, let's quit!"
Sun Mazi took off his official uniform in annoyance, and put his badge on the ground heavily. After he came out of the immigration office angrily, he was still angry and "spit" heavily at the sign of the immigration office.
"Pooh!"
"It's no wonder that the crippled king of the village is unwilling to come. I dare say this is a den of liars!"
