Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 319
"This is the end?"

By the Qinhuai River, on the upper floor of Cheng'an.

Shen Song had a look of unwillingness.

They also went to Zhuque Square to watch the excitement.

The front is fine.

But at the end.

Those scholars were beaten up by a group of workers, and the matter ended in a muddle?

You said that if Emperor Zhu sent troops to suppress it, even if the matter was suppressed, the prestige of the Ming court would definitely be damaged.

but now
It was two groups of petitioners fighting each other, and one party was unable to fight and ran away.

This has nothing to do with the court.

"The Ming court really followed the rules."

Bai Ning smiled wryly.

"Master, I didn't expect this matter to go down like this. Could it be that the Ming Dynasty is really impenetrable, with no loopholes at all?"

Shen Song said with a sigh.

Bai Ning glanced at Shen Song.

But shook his head.

"not necessarily!"

"Oh? Master, what good plan do you have?"

"The Ming Dynasty had just unified the world, and it was the time when the country was in full swing. How could it be overthrown by this small turmoil? In the Qing Dynasty, the San Francisco rebellion was so fierce, wouldn't it be suppressed?" Bai Ning said, "However, although the Great Ming Dynasty is powerful, it is not without hidden worries."

"Where is the hidden worry?" Shen Song's eyes lit up.

Bai Ning glanced at him and said, "Newspaper!"

"Your Majesty, this is the land inventory of the eight provinces of Liangjiang, Lianghu, Guangdong, Guangxi, Anhui, and Zhejiang, and the registration of the land tax that should be paid in each province. Please take a look at it."

After Luo Fangbo got the accounts reported from below, he immediately came to Qinzheng Palace and reported to Emperor Zhu.

Emperor Zhu smiled: "How did this matter go so smoothly?"

Luo Fangbo shook his head: "Your Majesty, the imperial court has arrested hundreds of people in Sichuan, and the scholars who came to petition have been beaten again. Why don't the local gentry know your determination? Who would dare to stand up to resist the tax? So everyone Pay your taxes honestly."

"Honest? I'm afraid he's not that honest." Emperor Zhu said.

Luo Fangbo said helplessly: "The emperor is very aware of the details, but this is a politician, how can he really not rub the sand in his eyes, this can be basically smoothed out, and if there is no trouble in the local area, it will be considered good."

Emperor Zhu nodded.

In fact, he did not intend to break with the entire feudal landlord class in China.

Since there is no way to break up.

There's something about that.

Just open one eye and close one eye.

There is no way.

But now that this step can be achieved, Emperor Zhu is already very satisfied.

Luo Fangbo glanced at Emperor Zhu.

he knows.

Emperor Zhu is now going to support the new students to take the position.

For this reason, he, the prime minister, has actually gotten in the way.

Because the leader of the New Learning Party is naturally Gu Song who came back from Europe with Zhu Daohua.

therefore.

Gu Song has to be promoted to the position of Prime Minister and let him escort the new students.

And at the same time.

Emperor Zhu also needed to make some compromises with the Hunan Gang, which had considerable influence in the court.

Is politics the wisdom of compromise?

therefore
Emperor Zhu has already begun to plan to promote Peng Jun to be the second chancellor to balance the court.

Luo Fangbo is the head of the country.It's the prince again.He has been prime minister for so long.

It is no longer appropriate to continue to do so, it is time to retreat bravely.

thought here.

Luo Fangbo took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, I have been the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty for many years, and I am already old and frail. I hope that."

Emperor Zhu waved his hand and said, "Uncle, why do you and I say such things? It's really not suitable for two Cantonese prime ministers in the court now, but you don't want to be prime minister anymore, so don't think about retiring just like that."

Luo Fangbo was taken aback, and couldn't help asking: "What does the emperor want the old minister to do?"

"Uncle, you used to run a company in Nanyang, so you know something about business." Emperor Zhu said.

Luo Fangbo blushed.

What to start a company.

In fact, it is to open the door of the underworld.

In the beginning, he was attached to the Tiandihui, but later he fell out with the Tiandihui, so he went out on his own. After kicking out the members of the Tiandihui, he established the Lanfang Company in Borneo, and later established the Lanfang Republic.

The resume can be said to be quite rich.

Emperor Zhu smiled slightly upon seeing this.

This talent is actually out of experience.

in history.

Liu Bang is surrounded by fellow villagers from Pei County.

Most of the people around Zhu Yuanzhang are fellow villagers from Fengyang, Anhui.

Is it because the people in these two places mutated at that moment, so many capable ministers and generals emerged all at once?
of course not.

This is just because they follow the British masters like Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang, and after the capable people are trained, they will naturally emerge and take the lead.

Became a court official.

In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei got Guan Yu and Zhang Fei by chance.

Was Liu Bei really so lucky in history?
There must be a certain element of luck.

But more likely it is.

By Liu Bei's side, all the little soldiers who participated in the entrepreneurship at the beginning were all dead. In the end, fierce men like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei emerged from such cruel elimination and became Liu Bei's right-hand man.

It's the same with Emperor Zhu now.

Let's talk about fame.

What fame can the courtiers around Emperor Zhu have in history?
but now.

Who dares to say that they are not a generation of famous ministers?
Times create heroes, and heroes create times.

since ancient times.

No way.

So did Luo Fangbo.

In history, he was a scholar who did not pass the imperial examinations, came out to create Nanyang, started the underworld and became famous.

But it was limited to this - in that era, the stage for a character like Luo Fangbo was only so big.

but now.

In the "New Great Ming Heroes" that has already begun to be painted.

Luo Fangbo ranks first among all the heroes.

In the future, after Emperor Zhu burps, his portrait will follow Emperor Zhu into the imperial mausoleum.

Wait for future history textbooks.

Luo Fangbo will definitely be able to rank alongside Li Shanchang, Fang Xuanling, Xiao He and Zhang Liang.

"I have an idea. I plan to set up a business promotion association. Uncle, the position of the president of the promotion association must belong to you."

"Association for the Promotion of Industry and Commerce?" Luo Fangbo was taken aback.

"That's right, most of the financial revenue of our Ming Dynasty comes from the industrial and commercial industries. Promoting industry and commerce is to promote the prosperity of our Ming Dynasty."

"Now our Ming Dynasty has started the reform of the tax sharing system. The more taxes this place collects, the more benefits they will have. Now their salaries are linked to the tax. I believe that under such circumstances, the local officials will definitely There is motivation to promote industry and commerce, and to raise taxes. However, most of the local officials are Confucian scholars and bureaucrats, and there is no industry and commerce in their minds. Therefore, the establishment of an industry and commerce promotion association is to teach us the Ming Dynasty. Local parents, how to develop and promote industry and business prosperity!"
