The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 447 Zhu Di: Where did the brothers go?

The new army transferred from Beiping was originally Zhu Di's confidence, but now he can't laugh or cry, and he doesn't know how to shirk for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang was unhappy.

"With a wave of your hand, several million shi of supplies were transported to Beiping. You father and son are united, and you secretly dug up the foundation of Lao Tzu. How many battalions of new troops do you want, but you father and son are reluctant?"

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's scolding, Zhu Di quickly raised his hand and surrendered.

He immediately wrote a letter and went to Peking.

Zhu Di couldn't tell the situation clearly for a while.

Is the father really giving up power to himself?

It is said that the father is not sincere. The army in the capital is indeed transitioning to himself, receiving batch after batch of generals.

Maybe my father is sincere, but Zhu Di is a little weak.

Zhu Di couldn't help but guess.

The father is the best at judging the situation and taking advantage of the situation. Wouldn't he play tricks on the father and son and let the two of them sneak in.

Father has this ability, otherwise he would not be able to reach today, but after thinking about it, Zhu Di didn't bother to think about it.

It's not that Zhu Di chose to give up, but he has something to rely on.

Because the third brother is dead.

According to the news from the imperial physicians, the imperial physicians vaguely said that King Jin may only be here for a few months, and may not even survive the winter.

Prince Jin still stayed in Prince Jin's Mansion in Shanxi, and no one dared to touch him easily. Zhu Gaochi was afraid of an accident on the road, so he couldn't tell clearly.

So the rest of the vassal kings were "invited" to Peiping, but Jin Wang remained in Taiyuan.

Famous doctors from Shanxi were invited to the Jin Palace, and imperial doctors were also sent from the capital.

However, King Jin's illness not only did not improve, but became more and more serious. He could no longer get out of bed and needed help.

Big Brother is dead.

The second brother died.

The third brother is also going to die.

The fifth younger brother can't be counted on, the father has long since given up on the fifth younger brother and let the fifth younger brother play with his herbs.

Five siblings.

The only thing my father can count on now is myself, and Zhu Di thinks that he has done a good job all these years, so Zhu Di doesn't believe that his father can't see the reality clearly.

This is the general trend.

Zhu Di has confidence in his heart.

But I have to find time to go around the new military camp, and I have to show my head, otherwise the new military camp will really only listen to my father in the future.

"Ji Gang."

"The mark is on."

"Get ready, I will go to the new military camp in the future." Zhu Di ordered.

"Respect the king's decree."

Ji Gang said respectfully.

Now everyone with a discerning eye knows that this Jinyiwei blockbuster is attached to King Yan, and will definitely be the third Jinyiwei commander in the future.

Li Daoxin did not suppress Ji Gang.

One emperor and one courtier.

Li Daoxin did not have undue ambition to continue to control Jinyiwei in the hands of the next generation of new kings.

In the public opinion in the countryside, many people deny that the sage has a heart of easy storage.

And these people not only know that the sage has the heart of easy storage, but even have been preparing for more than a year, so they just missed the door.

Possibly a butterfly wing.

It is more likely to be due to the depression caused by Beiping's blitz in Taiyuan. When Zhu Di's letter arrived in Peiping, King Jin, who had been lying on the sickbed for the first half of the year, finally heard the news of his death and did not survive the winter.

"Fortunately, Grandpa Huang sent an imperial physician, otherwise, I would not be able to explain the death of Third Uncle." Zhu Gaochi sighed.

King Jin's death is a good thing for Zhu Di's situation.

So Zhu Gaochi was actually a little happy inside.

He has no relationship with King Jin, and he hasn't even met face to face in these years, but he definitely can't show it in front of people.

Smiling and laughing, Zhu Gaochi couldn't laugh anymore.

The new army changed its name to Zhuyong. Judging from the meaning of Zhu Di's words, Zhu Yuanzhang conquered the hearts of many generals.

The new military camp sent to the capital will be surnamed Xiao Zhu, Da Zhu, or Lao Zhu.

Zhu Gaochi was a little uncertain.

Jin Zhong and Ge Cheng, who received Zhu Di's letter from Zhu Gaochi, also had complicated expressions after reading it.

"Could it be a meat bun beating a dog? There's no return."

Jin Zhong said in surprise.

Ge Cheng couldn't help turning his head to stare at Jin Zhong.

The little prince usually doesn't pay much attention to the superiority and inferiority, so that Fang Kuan's Zhu Tuo is the first, and Jin Zhong's meat bun beats the dog later.
Jin Zhong also reflected his slip of the tongue, and quickly confessed to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi shook his hand, not paying much attention.

"Grandpa Huang is right. Several million shi of supplies have been sent to Beiping. Not to mention three battalions, ten battalions can be given to him."

"It's just that the father said in the letter that he hoped that I would suspend the restructuring. What do you think?"

Zhu Gaochi will not change his mind, but he has to test the people below the school.

"Industrialization has developed to the current scale, and the traditional methods can no longer keep up with the situation. It is necessary to change the talent supply."

"Just like the little prince said about the big factories and small yamen, although the imperial examination will not be cancelled, it will not be the same as before."

Jin Zhong said quickly.

Ge Cheng also nodded, "One move affects the whole body. In fact, Peking's reforms were driven by Peking's needs."

Hearing the recognition of the two, Zhu Gaochi showed a satisfied smile.

Only by having a clear understanding of things can we make correct judgments.

The automobile came first, and then the traffic law was promoted.

Ships came before the law of navigation.

Airplanes came first, and then aviation law was activated.

It is industry that improves productivity and increases people's supplies, which promotes the birth of advanced ideas. This is the order of development of things.

The advanced nature of a civilization must be supported by the height of productivity.

Why must ancient advanced civilizations be born in rich areas?

Because only when people are rich, can there be a large number of people who have the energy to think and think about more things.

Many ideas were born through the brainstorming of many people.

Civilization is the flower that blooms from wealth.

As the ancients said: "If you have a solid warehouse, you will know etiquette; if you have enough food and clothing, you will know honor and disgrace."

In a region where there are no people who have left the working class, how can civilization be born? Did it fall from the sky?

"I think there is a limit to everything, no matter what there is a balance point, beyond this balance point, it will inevitably develop in a bad way."

Zhu Gaochi said.

"The same is true for the imperial examination. The imperial examination is the height of the development of our Chinese civilization. This is a good thing."

"But it's like the Song Dynasty."

"The Song Dynasty is definitely the most golden age for China in science and technology since ancient times."

"And the imperial examination reached its peak in the Song Dynasty. I think it exceeded this speed."

"All talents are attracted by the imperial examination. Smart people all over the world want to take the imperial examination, which blocks the supply and exchange of talents in other industries."

This point of view is not what Zhu Gaochi himself thinks.

It is the understanding of mainstream Chinese and Western scholars.

It is not what those Chinese extremes who are the greatest in the West, and China is necessarily ignorant, nor do they think that the West is the center of the world.

Zhu Gaochi prefers some more objective theories.

The science and technology of the Song Dynasty surpassed all civilizations at the same time, and the imperial examination was a great civilization achievement that other civilizations did not have.

It opened up the channel for the lower class people to develop upward.

But also with the development of the imperial examination, it surpassed its supposed role and caused severe damage to the social division of labor system.

"When I reformed the imperial examinations in Beiping, there was so much resistance, my father thought that we should wait until everything was settled before starting."

Jin Zhong and Ge Cheng couldn't help but nod.

Among the most vocal critics of the Beiping model, there is dissatisfaction with the imperial examination.

Zhu Gaochi went on to say: "I don't think so. The current resistance to reform is the least. Let Beiping be the pilot. After Beiping succeeds, it will be gradually promoted."

"It will not affect the development of the Peiping model, and it will minimize the voice of resistance. And with the prestige of Grandpa Huang, the world will not be in chaos."

What the little prince said makes sense.

In fact, what some people in Ying Tianfu said was not wrong.

Small people are people, but are big households people?
In fact, Ge Cheng did not want the world to be in chaos.

There are not many people like Ge Cheng.

Zhu Gaochi didn't want that either.

As he said, there is a limit to everything, and there must be a limit to the suppression of large households.

It is not to suppress big players for the sake of suppressing big players.

Just say scientists.

Scientists mainly come from big families, and this is the reality of society.

Not to mention the rest of the scholars, the vast majority also come from big households, which is an inevitable phenomenon.

Let’s just say that among the several well-known mathematicians in Peiping, which ones are not from landlord families, is it possible to beat them and let them shine at the same time?

"The imperial examination will continue, but the reform of the imperial examination will also continue. This is the inevitable demand of the development of the social industry in Beiping."

Zhu Gaochi told the officials below about the future policy in order to stabilize his own hearts.

"In the process of allocating social resources, it is necessary not only to meet the needs of the common people, but also to reasonably protect the property of the big households. There is no fundamental contradiction between the two sides. It is only necessary to contain the part that exceeds the interests that they should have."

Zhu Gaochi's words quickly spread to the society of Peking through the mouths of officials.

The little prince is not hostile to the big family.

What is a big household.

The standards of big players are constantly changing, and big players will always exist.

Existence makes sense.

"On the one hand, he said that he was not hostile to the big ones, and on the other hand, he was suppressing the big ones. Prince Yan has finished speaking on both ends." A squire said with a smile.

"Since I am not hostile to big households, I obviously won the lawsuit between the old man and the Military Household Economic Cooperative. Why was the sentence changed later? Isn't it a lie to us?"

Some big players are dissatisfied.

Similarly, some big players have quietly changed.

Some wealthy households joined the industry and started to set up factories or firms, and some children from wealthy households went to schools to become teachers, or joined some high-level industries such as banks.

There are famous rationalists.

Invented a mathematical theory.

He sorted out a model of the Beiping model through mathematical theory.

Farm tools, fertilizers, seeds, soil fertility, pesticides and other aspects were counted to obtain a data.

How many acres of fields are needed to feed 500 million people, and how many acres of these fields are required to engage in agricultural production with the production efficiency of farmers in Beiping today.

According to this mathematical model, it can be easily calculated that how much agricultural population can be invested and how much grain output can be obtained.

These grain output, averaged to the population, is how much grain each person consumes on average.

This theory was published by the Technical News and was named Zhou's Population Society Theory.
