I'm really not doing business

Chapter 187
Wang Chonggu hummed a ditty and sang a song, cheerfully telling Wang Qian how he and the third lady were fighting each other. Wang Chonggu quarreled fiercely with the third lady because of money, and every point was based on his own profit. He will not give in to any terms that are not conducive to Daming, and will pursue and fight fiercely for terms that are beneficial to him.

His verbal war was a real quarrel, completely different from Wu Dui's verbal war with San Niangzi.

Wang Chonggu said with a smile: "My son, we have been in the same way since ancient times, inside and outside the Ming Dynasty. We always look forward to the emergence of a Ming lord. For the understanding of state affairs, we always look forward to someone who can understand Everyone, pull out of the vulgar, hopeless and meaningless life, solve all the real problems once and for all, and from now on, you will never have to face the real suffering in life.”

"Oh, Zhang Juzheng taught well. Your Majesty is better at learning. If you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded. This life is very beautiful."

Wang Qian shook his head very confidently and said: "No one can pull others out of the quagmire and solve all the problems so that there will be no more suffering in life. Based on contradictions, this is impossible, because when a contradiction conflicts and After that, there will be new contradictions."

"Only by the succession of contradictions can the infinite principle of all things develop continuously. The development of things is not the things themselves."

"If you put all your hopes on one person, it's better to make a wish. The bastard in the Wishing Pool will shake his head when he hears such an outrageous request."

Wang Chonggu was stunned for a long time before he said: "I now believe that you will be able to pass the Jinshi exam. You are willing to read the contradiction theory and understand it. I am very happy to be a father. Even if you fail the Jinshi exam, you can pass the Jinshi exam." Settle down by yourself, so you won’t be like Zhang Siwei.”

Wang Qian continued: "Zhang Ju is a man, not a god. He cannot reverse the world's decline by himself. In the court, Tan Lun and Wang Guoguang are the right-hand men of the new law. In the local area, there are Yin Zhengmao, Zhang Xueyan, Ling Yunyi, Pan Jixun, Pang Shangpeng, etc., Qi Jiguang, Li Chengliang, Yu Dayou, Zhang Yuanxun, Liu Xian, etc. in the army."

"And behind these people is the common expectation of the people of Ming Dynasty to live and work in peace and contentment. Even if Qi Jiguang can't be spread out, he can still stand tall in the north. That's not only Zhang Juzheng's protection, but also the common people's expectation."

"It was all these people who gathered together and worked hard together to support it."

"And Zhang Juzheng really found them, and it can even be said to appease them, so that they played their role."

"Even father."

"Ah, does this include me? Hahaha." Wang Chonggu smiled happily. He did start from the perspective of interests, but what he did was indeed beneficial to the country. His name is not in the list of heroes, but his name will definitely not be in the list of traitors.

Wang Chonggu shook his head and said, "Son, have you also read Xinxue, especially He Xinyin's rhetoric? You can't believe it after you read it.

"What he said is right, it is indeed the expectation of all the people, but it is like a war, the small people cannot decide the start and end of the war, and the small people can't decide the rise and fall of the country, their expectations are for meat eaters. , is something that cannot be touched, because the general expectation of the people is to let the meat-eaters cut their flesh, or more specifically, to let the meat-eaters have a conscience."

"is it possible?"

Wang Qian was silent for a long time and said, "It's really unlikely."

Wang Chonggu sighed and said: "Why am I willing to do things? Don't dare to disobey the edict of the Holy One? Because wicked people need to be tortured by wicked people. If you want to do things, but don't want to be a wicked person, you can't do things. Zhang Ju is just a wicked person who has done all kinds of bad things, Your Majesty." He is a villain who is better than blue than blue."

"Maybe the world lacks such a villain."

Wang Chonggu, as Minister of the Ministry of Justice, did not believe in the law, and even found it ridiculous; as a person working for the interests of the Ming Dynasty, he did not believe in discussing the facts, and analyzed specific things in detail; as a courtier and one of the decision makers of the empire, he firmly believed that wicked people need to be tortured by wicked people.

In other words, what Wang Chonggu firmly believes is that the weapons of criticism are not as direct as the criticism of weapons. .

Wang Chonggu talked about the confrontation with San Niangzi this time, and he said very precisely: "San Niangzi advocates a long-term and stable supply price, while my proposition is a long-term, stable and rapidly increasing supply quantity, which is in line with Your Majesty's claim that sheep eat horses and weaken the mobility of grassland people is also in line with the need for the continuous expansion of official factories."

"Of course our family can also make money."

"So, I designed a set of supply prices based on the three-year average supply quantity. For example, the average supply quantity from the second year of Wanli to the fourth year of Wanli is 1 bags of wool. Then in the next three years, Take 1 bags as the benchmark, and exceed 12000 bags. For every excess of 10%, the purchase price of wool will increase by 1%. In this way, the next three years will be based on the previous three years and the average price. , for this price increase, the prairie people will play their own initiative."

Wang Qian looked around and said in a low voice, "Father doesn't seem to have finished."

Wang Chonggu continued: "Yes, if the supply is lower than the benchmark, there will be a price penalty. If it is lower than the benchmark by 10%, the price will be reduced by 10%. This is not equivalent to the increase in price, but San Niangzi agreed. I agreed because she promised to herd more sheep and less horses, and for San Niangzi, or San Niangzi's fans, what they are most worried about is that Daming will suddenly not buy it."

"This is where the raw materials are supplied, or in other words, the huge disadvantage of not having a commodity advantage. Without a commodity advantage, you can only fall into infinite passivity."

"I take coin casting as an example. In order to keep the coin casting in Yunnan, the local government even stood up to Zhang Juzheng and impeached Zhang Juzheng for the benefit of his hometown! Yunnan is the supply of raw materials, and they do not have the commodity advantage of copper coins. Yunnan is most worried What is it? The copper produced in central Yunnan cannot be cast in drums, but instead purchased overseas at a high price.”

"This is pragmatic, and it is also a concrete manifestation of being able to grasp the main contradiction."

Wang Qian sighed and said: "It's obviously a pragmatic approach, but people have criticized it. One is to criticize people far away, and the other is to say that my father is only interested in profit, alas."

"Thanks to the compliment, I can't help but be overjoyed." Wang Chonggu said indifferently.

"Ah? Praise?" Wang Qian asked dully.

Wang Chonggu smiled and said: "Yes, you said that there is no such person who can save others from fire and water, but for the mud of Daming, isn't Zhang Juzheng the one who made a wish in Wang Bachi, Wang Ba shook his head and said no Are you an outstanding person? I tell His Majesty, having rules is better than having no rules."

"This is the reason. The criterion for judging right and wrong should be based on safeguarding the Ming Dynasty, the greatest public interest, rather than the chattering of literati and inkmen. They are right if they have a loud voice? They can speak so well, why not?" How about going to influence Al Da Khan, Tu Man, Jian Nu, and Hong Mao Fan?!"

"Father is brilliant." Wang Qian said sincerely.

It turned out to be like this, no wonder Wang Chonggu worked so hard. Before Wang Qian could understand the theory of contradiction, Wang Chonggu had already started to read public and private theory.

Zhu Yijun saw Wang Chonggu's stepped wool method, and said that the minds of scholars are dirty.

Wang Chonggu introduced negative numbers in the valuation and measurement, and used the system design to put the grassland in a predicament. If you want to increase the price of wool, you have to supply more wool, and one cycle is more than one cycle, and it needs to be much more to achieve price increases.

In this system design, the price reduction of wool is extremely drastic. Once a cycle is reduced by 10% compared with the previous cycle, the price reduction will ruin the efforts of the past cycle.

This has led to the fact that more sheep must be raised in the grassland. The grassland is very barren, and the total amount of aquatic plants is fixed or even gradually reduced.

In San Niangzi's view, Wang Chonggu is very vicious, but she has to accept that Daming is willing to give a long-term stable price, which is also a gift to the grassland, and stability is something that does not exist in the grassland.

The Yuan Dynasty was a dynasty established by the Hu people, so there must be no border troubles. The Han princes were ordered by the emperor to go to the grasslands every year.

For grasslands, stability is a luxury, and rules are out of reach.

Daming is willing to give a stable price, and San Niangzi is acceptable. At worst, he will go out to grab wool.

The current public-private theory has never been able to advance, which has prevented the public-private theory from being published in the world. The main reason is that Zhang Juzheng has always refused to separate the monarch father, the monarch country, and the monarch teacher. He can only further deny these opposite and unified concepts. , to be integrated.

The theory that Zhu Yijun hoped most for Zhang Juzheng was that Jun represented the majority of the people in the world and performed their duties on behalf of the people, and then local officials performed their duties on behalf of the local people.

But this will lead to a more terrifying question. If the king cannot represent the majority of the people and perform his duties on behalf of the people, is it necessary to change the king?What is the standard of judgment?
Power, the supreme power in the world is too tempting, enough to make everyone in the world take risks for it.

Of course, Queen Mother Li was the exception. After all, she was her own son, and her son was very promising, so she just let it go.

Zhang Juzheng knew the little emperor's intentions too well, so Zhang Juzheng just put it down without answering at all, so that the father, the kingdom, and the teacher were still one, and the king was always maintained in a sacred and inviolable concept.

This is based on actual practice. The productivity or social development of the Ming Dynasty has not yet reached that time. Therefore, Zhang Juzheng’s public-private theory is still an incomplete concept, but it is relevant to the current and future decades of Ming Dynasty. In other words, it is enough.

Because the definition of public and private is deviant enough in itself, enough to guide production and life for decades, and there is absolutely no need to go any further.

Zhu Yijun could only express regret for this.

The Great Sikou Wang Chonggu was responsible for supervising the construction of the Ming Dynasty Imperial Palace. Before His Majesty left Beijing, Wang Chonggu and Minister of Industry Guo Chaobin first let His Majesty attend the foundation laying ceremony.

This foundation laying ceremony is when the emperor appears, two firecrackers are set off, and then the emperor takes a shovel and shovels the soil twice, which means that the emperor laid the foundation of this house, which is just a formality.

But this form is not so formal, because the emperor asked Guo Chaobin and Wang Chonggu to talk about how to realize their requirements.

"For the building on the central axis, we plan to adopt a steel-concrete structure." Standing in front of the foundation, Guo Chaobin explained his construction plan to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty and several courtiers. All hope.

The courtiers were already furious. If the little emperor got married at the construction site, all the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty would just find a rope and hang themselves on it!
"Wait a minute? What structure?" Zhu Yijun signaled Guo Chaobin to pause, and asked with uncertainty.

"Steel concrete, steel steel, concrete concrete." Guo Chaobin said very precisely: "We have found a material that meets His Majesty's requirements. It cannot be burned or repaired all day long. We will stick a layer of wood veneer on this surface. , the regulation is exactly the same as in the past, but it can’t be burned at all.”

Of course Zhu Yijun understood the meaning of this word. He originally thought that Wang Chonggu and Guo Chaobin would use stones. After all, the processing technology of stones is very mature, but now Guo Chaobin is talking about the structure of cement and steel.

"Concrete, what is it?" Zhu Yijun asked again.

"Lime, all lime is burned by fire and used. After it has been made into quality, it will never be broken when it enters the water. Hundreds of millions of boats, billions of walls, and gaps to prevent adultery must be used. Pile, the pond bottoms of the upper four docks and the lower four docks of the Longjiang shipyard will first be smeared with this kind of lime, and water will be added to cement the gravel to build the bottom." Guo Chaobin brought a condensed lump and handed it to His Majesty.

The reason for not using stone materials is very simple. The Ministry of Rites cannot agree to use stone materials, because the stone houses in Daming are used more in mausoleums.

Then steel concrete is a good compromise solution, which not only meets His Majesty's requirements for a new home, but also meets the requirements of the Ministry of Rites for etiquette.

After reading it, Zhu Yijun is very convinced that this is cement, hydraulic lime.

Guo Chaobin explained the process in detail. The reason why lime and clay are used is to increase stability, and steel is the aggregate. Only cement is afraid of collapse, but it will be much better if steel is used.

This is Wang Chonggu's archaeological scientific research. He found the building materials for the foundation from the chronicles of the Longjiang Shipyard to build a new palace for His Majesty, and put a layer of wood veneer on it, which perfectly met His Majesty's needs.

"Let's do it, let's do it." Zhu Yijun agreed to use this building material. He was very satisfied. The main reason was that the Daming Palace suffered several fires, which made the emperor very passive. Zhu Yijun actually planned to build a stone palace. There is a big job coming out.

Only then did Zhu Yijun know that in shipyards, especially in the construction of docks, it is a common practice in this era to build foundations with hydraulic lime.

On this basis, the Ministry of Industry added steel frames.

Zhu Yijun stepped into the car, looked at Zhang Juzheng and said, "Sir, let's ride with me."

"I don't dare." Zhang Juzheng refused to get in the car. If His Majesty took charge personally, it would be a sign of a sage and virtuous minister, but His Majesty still hadn't taken charge personally, and getting in the car would be an arrogance.

Zhang Juzheng was a very courteous courtier, he found that the little emperor always had a bit of a bad taste, and thought he was not busy enough, so he found things for him all day long.

Zhu Yijun waved his hands and said in a moody manner, "Red tape."

The Emperor Ming has left Beijing!
Since the Jiajing Southern Tour was burned, how many years has the Ming Emperor not been out of Beijing?But now, the little emperor left the capital, and his destination was Tianjin Wei.

The ship transporting grain by sea is almost here. The reason why Zhu Yijun went to check it himself was mainly to see with his own eyes whether the five-masted ocean-going ship was really as majestic as the Songjiang Prefecture Shipyard said.

The trip to Tianjinwei has gone through a long period of court discussion. The Chu Party headed by Zhang Juzheng highly agrees, while Ge Shouli is strongly opposed by the Jin Party. The two sides have been fighting for three months. In the end, Zhang Juzheng Winning, the little emperor ended up traveling smoothly.

According to Ge Shouli, it is the incompetence of the courtiers to make the emperor work so hard, while Zhang Juzheng is one of the high-ranking ones, just faithful. If your majesty has never even seen a sea-going ship, how can he understand the hardships of maritime trade? Wan, it's not as good as seeing it with your own eyes.

Zhang Juzheng is putting more weight on the matter of Haicao, while Ge Shouli has the power to honor the Lord. It is worth noting that Ge Shouli is not saying that he can't watch it, but that he will watch it after the emperor gets married. Now that I am young, it is inevitable that I will be unaccustomed to the environment and get infected with plague when I go out. How can I get it?

Ge Shouli's reason is very sufficient, and it has been recognized by most of the courtiers. Yes, in Ge Shouli's view, the little emperor is like a porcelain vase that will break when touched. People in this era are so fragile, and they may travel far away , If you come into contact with different flora, you will die from acclimatization, especially now that the emperor is not married, let alone has no children, if he goes out and gets sick, something big will happen to Daming.

These two opinions formed a fierce conflict in the court. Finally, after the little emperor performed a 65-jin hard bow and hit all ten arrows, Ge Shouli discovered to his astonishment that the emperor was not a porcelain vase, but a steel-concrete concrete block!

At the age of 14, with a 65-jin strong bow, he hit all ten arrows. This is a level, and he is weaker than Li Rusong.

Ge Shouli's worry was not unreasonable. The little emperor fell ill as soon as he arrived in Tianjin Wei, but the next day the little emperor appeared in front of all the people alive and well, and attended the ceremony for the arrival of grain.

Because the grain boat was going faster, it was a day earlier than expected. The grain had already arrived at the port, and the ship hadn’t been unloaded for the ceremony. One day more and one day less, the Nanya escort navy thought it was not important. Support is so important!
Your Majesty's willingness to move to Tianjin Wei to take a look is the greatest support for the policy of shipping grain.

The vocal music gradually started, and there were lights and festoons everywhere. The young hero Zhu Yijun stood on the trestle bridge, symbolically checked the seals on the next road, and then pushed the cart for transporting grain, completing the entire ceremony.

Zhu Yijun watched the grain boxes being unloaded from the ship one by one, and then piled up in the warehouse at the port. After being checked and signed and sealed, they would be shipped to Tongzhou.

"Yu Shuai, is this boat powerful?" Zhu Yijun asked the white-haired Yu Dayou, who was a few minutes older than the first year of Wanli.

Yu Dayou stroked his goatee and said with a smile: "It's great! It's great because it can be operated only by wind power. It's great because it has a continuous artillery deck. If it is fully loaded, it can have 54 guns. It's great because it can defend Wei Daming Sea Frontier."

"Daming Songjiang Shipyard has built a total of twelve such ocean-going ships. After summarizing experience and lessons, it will design new ocean-going ships and artillery. Some design is unreasonable, such as the storage of gunpowder, such as artillery. The design of this ship’s artillery does not have a grid plate, which causes water to enter the artillery when it rains. It’s strange to say that such an obvious mistake, no one thought of it before using it.”

"It's normal." Zhu Yijun said with a smile. This is the case with engineering. There will always be problems that cannot be considered, and it is necessary to make repairs and design new ships.

"General Manager Guo Rulin and Zhao Shizhen made a two-foot long gift for His Majesty, please accept it with a smile." Yu Dayou asked someone to bring a small gift, a figure of a foreign ship, children always like these As long as the plaything can leave this memory in His Majesty's heart, it will be part of the divine grace in the future.

Zhu Yijun likes this kind of souvenir very much, the more the better.

"Your Majesty, I'm getting old. I'm going to retire after finishing this mission." Yu Dayou is already gray-haired, which is why he escorted grain back to Beijing this time. Qi Jiguang is not only in his 40s, but he is already 73 and retired. He had been tempted to think about it several times, and this time he finally said it.

The Songjiang navy has begun to take shape, and Chen Lin, the deputy commander he carefully selected, can already take charge of his own affairs, and it is time.

"There is no need to become an official. Stay in Beijing as the right governor of the former military governor's mansion. How about answering my questions?" Zhu Yijun agreed to Yu Dayou's request to no longer lead the army. Yu Dayou was born in Hongzhi in 16 years. Teacher, it is indeed not suitable anymore, hard work is one thing, energy is another.

When Yu Dayou heard His Majesty's disposition, he was stunned and asked: "This is not in line with the ancestral system..."

Since he can't do anything, he just needs to get some treatment and go home, but seeing what His Majesty means, he intends to let Yu Dayou continue to use his spare heat.

Zhu Yijun said in a low voice: "Yu Shuai, my house has been ordered. Qi Shuai can't return to Daningwei for a short time. I can't get angry yet. Look at these officials who bully me every day. Yu Shuai is in the capital. Waiting for Xiao Xiaoan to dare to be so rampant!"

After hearing this, Yu Dayou found that His Majesty's reasons were sufficient and reasonable. At least when he was in the capital, when His Majesty employs people, there will be no one available.

"Minister obeys the order." Yu Dayou agreed without any objection. He is not suitable for leading the navy, but he can lead the army. He doesn't need any military exploits. As long as he is around, he will be a deterrent, because his name is Yu Dayou.

Zhu Yijun boarded Daming’s first ocean-going ship, and when he saw something novel, he asked about it. Steel parts, in the connecting parts and watertight compartments, steel is better than wood.

During this voyage, two water seepage incidents occurred, and because of the existence of the watertight cabin, Daming did not lose a single ship.

When the little emperor welcomed the grain into Beijing, and celebrated the successful operation of the Daming Sea Transport grain, San Niangzi and his party came to Daningwei, and then went to Taotu Mountain. After seeing a mountain-sized white soil, they were silent for a long time. Daming did indeed have a stable supply of white clay.

Then the third lady came to the front line of Qinglong Castle.

Qi Jiguang is here, and San Niangzi really admires the defense of Daningwei, it is indeed very powerful.

"Da Ming is hard to break from the outside, but his inside is completely rotten." San Niangzi looked at the majesty of Daming's Beijing camp and said.

"Do you mean that I should vote for another Mingzhu? Who? You?" Qi Jiguang smiled, his tone was very gentle, but with very clear disdain.

The third lady said helplessly: "Before I entered the capital, I Dahan asked me to try to persuade Qi Shuai to defect. I said he was daydreaming, but he still didn't believe it. I must be scolded so that I Dahan would be satisfied."

At all costs, it was I Dahan's idea to persuade Qi Jiguang to defect. From the very beginning, San Niangzi thought it was a bad idea. For people like Qi Jiguang, let alone the little emperor who treats him favorably, even if the little emperor treats him poorly, Qi Jiguang will not defect .

When Qi Jiguang was in the border town of Jizhou, he could even bear the humiliation of hundreds of households in the Beijing camp. Qi Jiguang's loyalty was to the Ming Dynasty, not to a certain person.

This kind of person tried every means to kill him, or to overthrow him through the strife within Daming.

The third lady doesn't mind at all costs. She asked herself how beautiful she is, and it was her honor to give birth to Qi Shuai's child, but Qi Jiguang's family has a fierce wife, and even grassland people know a thing or two about asking his wife to parade. The allusion is mainly used to ridicule Qi Jiguang's fear of guilt and reduce his fear of facing Qi Jiguang.

This kind of self-comfort through unimportant things is extremely common and not unique to Central Plains people.

The existence of Qi Jiguang makes people feel like a thorn in their throats. To rob Gyeonggi, they must break through Gubeikou and Xifengkou in the first generation of Jizhou. Invasion?

The third lady said rather curiously: "I left from Qinglong Castle, and I will go to Quanningwei. Qi Shuai guesses, will the six divisions on the left and right wings of our grassland join forces again and attack Daming together?"

"Is there such a good thing?" Qi Jiguang seems to have seen the title of the duke beckoning to him. It is not my wish to be named a marquis. I hope that Hai Boping is just Qi Jiguang's emotion based on the current situation. Qi Jiguang is still happy to be named a marquis. Go for it!

The third lady was choked for a moment. Qi Jiguang said this from the perspective of strength, and the third lady had to be convinced if she was not convinced.

If they can survive, will the prairie people do business in a quiet and orderly manner?
"I'm going to persuade Tuman Khan to surrender. Not only are there grassland people on the left who are willing to reconcile with Daming, but also on the right. To use the most popular saying in the Central Plains recently, conflicts exist everywhere." The third lady got on her horse and bid farewell to Qi Jiguang. Ten riders headed towards Quanningwei.

Qi Jiguang was thinking about whether to chase after her and kill San Niangzi, but she actually read the contradictory statement, so it's okay?

Qi Jiguang looked at the back of the third lady, and took out a letter from his arms. This is a letter written by His Majesty himself. The content of the letter is that I am doing well in the capital. It's good. Although Wang Chonggu and San Niangzi had a fierce quarrel, they still finalized the regulations for the wool business. The sea transportation of grain went smoothly, and there was no shipwreck. The invention of the grain box further reduced the sinking of the grain ship.

Everything is fine in Daming, don't be impatient on the front line, don't be greedy for meritorious deeds, and follow the predetermined plan to completely secure the Great Ningwei.

What a shit!
Everyone has been ordered, what a fart!

　Ask for a monthly ticket, woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! !
