The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 689: Daming can be touched even by others

The first year of Hongxi's reign in the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty Industrial Bureau and the private business forces led by the Juedao Dusi Lianji Merchant Gang held a discussion meeting with the Jiaozhou Prefecture of Jiaozhi Province. Han Qi, the big boss of the Ming Dynasty Industrial Bureau, personally participated.

Soon after, newspapers published the news.

Juedao Dusi does not develop the iron smelting industry, but mainly provides high-quality energy such as iron ore and coal mines to Daming. It does not seek to change the production chain of the Daming Industrial Bureau system. On this condition, it joins the trade ecological cycle system of the Daming Industrial Bureau.

The two sides, who had been fighting for two or three years, finally came to an end.

The new emperor ascended the throne and announced to the world that he reiterated the Ming Dynasty Law and established the system of three divisions in various places: the chief secretary, the censorship division, and the envoy division. There is also a strong emphasis on the supervisory system: the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Investigation Department.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate has two hundred censors. Traditionally, it is a light-weight position. After the reform, the Investigation Department, which was born out of the Ming Dynasty Industrial Bureau, was supplemented, strengthening the Metropolitan Procuratorate's ability to monitor the country.

The Advocacy Department and the Chief Secretary are departments at the same level and are not subordinate to each other. Instead, because of their respective political performance directions, it is difficult for the two parties to work together, and it is more of a confrontation and competition.

The situation of the Chief Secretary, the situation of the Military Attaché, the daily life of the school, the repair of local water conservancy, the situation of prisoners detained in the Prison Department Yamen, the Yamen’s account book, the money and food from local taxes, whether the expenses of official officials exceed the standard, Is there public money to eat and drink, is there any arbitrary taxation?

These are the functions of the Chaosi and belong to their political achievements and business.

The Chief Secretary and the Capital Command Department have a corresponding set of assessments, a small test every year and a major test every three years, which determine the evaluation of officials in the Ministry of Personnel and are related to Wu Shamao's stay and future.

Then the Inspectorate Department also has a similar assessment system.

Therefore, Zhu Gaochi seems to think that being an official in the Ming Dynasty, or being an official in ancient times, is very tiring in comparison, because ancient officials really did not have much power. At least the chief envoys in the Ming Dynasty could not control the inspection department and had many responsibilities.

Of course, this is also inseparable from Zhu Yuanzhang's credit. Decades of tough measures have greatly changed the social atmosphere of slave feudal bureaucracy in the former Yuan Dynasty.

"Wantong Litigation Firm."

Ningbo Mansion.

Zhao Changhe, who was already twenty-four years old, walked into the courtyard here anxiously after being asked by the old concierge. He was quickly received by someone and learned that it was a petitioner who owed money and refused to pay back, so he arranged a related lawsuit. division.

The litigator, a forty-year-old man with a big belly, asked the young man opposite to sit down and asked for details.

Litigation firms are supervised by the Procuratorate and have a strict management system. Every litigator needs to pass an assessment and obtain permission before they can litigate for others. Over the years, more and more people have turned to litigators because it is convenient and simple.

If the people are unwilling, it means it is very troublesome and the gains outweigh the losses.

Fortunately, the Ming Dynasty had a three-committee system. As long as the people were willing to pay and could afford it, litigation would no longer be a troublesome matter.

"There are many situations like yours, but without an IOU, this lawsuit will be difficult to win." After listening to the other party's story, the litigator suddenly understood the situation and told the truth.

Zhao Changhe was a little lost and didn't know how to speak.

After thinking for a long time, he said sadly: "My father regarded the other party as a brother, so he didn't ask the other party to write an IOU. Who knew that after my father passed away, the other party actually denied it and refused to admit that he had borrowed money from my father."

Zhao Changhe was a little sad.

The litigator opposite smiled. He had seen this kind of thing a lot. "It is precisely because of your situation, and because you are worried that the other party will feel embarrassed or angry, or that it will affect your relationship, that you think not to write an IOU. But you have also seen it. In fact, Many of my clients here have disputes caused by such reasons.”

"Is there really no other way?"

The litigator said: "There is only one way, and it depends on whether the other party has humanity."

The litigator asked Zhao Changhe to use the etiquette of a junior and not to be rude to meet the other party alone, and to understand the other party's feelings and reasons. If the other party can repent, naturally everyone will be happy.

It's best to pretend to be poor to attract the other party's sympathy and so on.

After hearing the litigator's idea, Zhao Changhe was a little embarrassed. In the fifteenth year of Yongle's reign, the emperor's grandson traveled across the country and inspected their factory. He also benefited from this and was promoted to a full-time job at the age of sixteen.

Their factory has been doing very well over the years, and the family has not had any difficulties. Otherwise, my father would not have been able to lend a large sum of money to his so-called good friend.

But that's all. Zhao Changhe thanked the litigator and paid a sum of money. If the method didn't work, he could only take the last step. The litigator replied that the chance of winning the case was no more than 30%.

Zhao Changhe was on vacation today and it was already noon when he left the litigation firm.

Although he was in a low mood, Zhao Changhe had come all the way to Fucheng. Zhao Changhe was not willing to make the trip in vain, so he took a bus in the city and visited Fucheng.

After all, Fucheng is Fucheng, and it is much more prosperous than Yin County.

Zhao Changhe looked through the car window at the buildings on both sides of the clean and wide road, especially the building full of glass, which was extremely dazzling under the sunlight.

There were many young ladies on the streets of Fucheng, some of them holding umbrellas. It was obviously not raining, but Zhao Changhe didn't blink at them.

Those exquisite and small paper umbrellas, matched with the skirts of the girls, are like fairies in paintings. They embellish the street scene of Fucheng like butterflies. With the contrast of the black and white walls in the alley, it is really as beautiful as it is.

After getting off the bus, Zhao Changhe found a restaurant to eat. After eating, he walked around the streets again, and then took the train back to the county seat.

"Yinxian Wantong Garment Factory".

The largest garment factory in the county, a place that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has visited, is already well-known to everyone in Yin County. The garment factory's garments are even sold as far away as Bonidus, and I heard that Xiao Xiyang has purchased them.

The huge signboard could be seen from a long distance. Zhao Changhe returned to the factory before dinner, went to the cafeteria for a meal, and then returned to the dormitory.

Because of his status as a manager, the dormitory in the factory is a single room.

His family lives in a township market, and he works alone in the county town. He used to have a father, but his father passed away, which left a lot of trouble. I really don’t know if I can recover the debt.

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, and Zhao Changhe couldn't sleep all night.

Early the next morning, Zhao Changhe followed the litigator's idea, bought some gifts, and paid a visit as a junior. Zhao Changhe felt discouraged because he was not good at sociability.

But I didn't expect it to be so simple. The other party actually agreed to pay back half of the money first and wait half a year for the remaining half.

Overjoyed by the unexpected, Zhao Changhe agreed repeatedly.

First I went home, and then I went to tell my sister that although my married daughter threw water, I still had to tell the good news. My sister was very happy when she learned about it, and then she accepted the gift brought by her brother.

"Preparing to send him to Fucheng to study."

Zhao Changhe was having dinner with his brother-in-law and his family, and Zhao Changhe revealed at the dinner table.

"How did you come up with this idea?"

My brother-in-law and sister asked curiously.

Zhao Changhe talked about the changes in Fucheng and sighed: "A small place is still a small place. Our place changes every ten or twenty years, and Fucheng changes every three to five years. In the future, only children who study can have a good livelihood."

Hearing her brother's thoughts, the woman couldn't help but glance at her husband, but the man didn't respond.

He was a factory manager, and his wages were among the highest in the county. He also had his father's inheritance. Although he was not rich, it was half his life's savings as a worker. So Zhao Changhe wanted to send the child to Fucheng to study and let his mother-in-law take care of it because his family could afford it. The man thought he didn't have that much money, so he ignored his mother-in-law's thoughts.

After dinner at his brother-in-law's house, Zhao Changhe returned home humming a little tune.

When the matter came to an end, Zhao Changhe returned to work.

A household can share one set of clothes; a household can also have more than one set per person, totaling dozens of pieces inside and outside. A set of clothes can last three generations, or it can last only three to five years, or more than ten years.

Workers at the Daming Industrial Bureau work only four hours a day, including half an hour for meals and lunch breaks.

There are nine days of holidays each month.

Stable working environment, rich wages, what people need is dignity.

What does decency mean? Wearing clean and good-looking clothes means decency, eating delicious and rich food means decency, and often going to the theater to watch plays means decency. Every kind of decency requires money to support it.

However, in the Ming Dynasty, an industrialized society, people-oriented, social resource allocation model system, and developed resource advantages, the streets are indeed very clean, so clean that it is incredible.

Those who come from overseas feel ashamed.

With the prosperity and frequency of trade, the Ming Dynasty had more and more vassal states. Every year, people from many countries arrived in the Ming Dynasty. No one could not help but be shocked. Everyone seemed to have seen a miracle.

For the same reason, more and more Ming people despised foreigners.

Foreigners are dirty, low-class people who don't understand etiquette.

Only those who have read books and understand more principles can maintain harmony, not despise foreigners, and have normal exchanges. Of course, in the face of such a Ming Dynasty, even if they are despised, they feel normal.

Learning from the Ming Dynasty’s style is something everyone in the world is doing.

What's more important is that Ming Dynasty has etiquette and law.

material civilization and spiritual civilization.

War broke out again between the Demasans and the Nagas.

Wenlou.

Yang Shiqi, the cabinet minister, sat below. Zhu Gaochi looked at the memorial sent with a heavy look on his face.

After he ascended the throne, Zhu Gaochi moved out of Chunhe Palace and handed it over to the new prince Zhu Zhanji along with Wenhua Palace. He worked in Wenlou on a daily basis and only went to Fengtian Palace when needed.

The Myanmar Xuanwei Division has become completely obedient, and even the Meng Yang Xuanwei Division has calmed down.

The stability of each department made the construction project of the Nanyang Railway very smooth. It no longer suffered from local obstruction and theft, and the laws to protect the railway were successfully implemented.

Things that complement each other, the successful construction of the Nanyang Railway made the situation in Nanyang more stable and firmly in the hands of the Ming Dynasty.

With the development and construction of various divisions, the Ming Dynasty's influence penetrated deeply into the local area and began to spread outward. Further to the west was the subcontinent, which was later Bangladesh.

Although Bangladesh was a unified country in later generations, it was not in ancient times. The disputes between various tribes were very fierce. In history, from Hongwu to Yongle, many local Xuanweisi were ennobled.

Dagu Ci Xuanwei Division, Demasasa Xuanwei Division, Diwu Ci Xuanwei Division, etc., including Banggela Kingdom.

In ancient times, India was divided into five dynasties.

In the east, west, south, north and central Tianzhu, Banggela was called East Tianzhu, also known as East India. In later generations, Banggela and other surrounding Xuanweisi and other places of the Ming Dynasty were integrated into Bangladesh by Western colonists.

Historically, Yongle had contact with Banggela in the early years and established friendly relations. The two sides sent envoys to each other, and the Ming army would also pass through this place during its voyages to the West.

If Zhu Di is still alive, Tianzhu's affairs can be left to Zhu Di, but Zhu Di has left, Zhu Gaochi can only do it himself, and the conflict between Demasan and Naga hinders his plan.

"Although the changes in the various divisions in Nanyang are developing for the better, many surrounding forces are wary, including Bangge La and other countries. I suspect that they are behind this incident."

Yang Shiqi broke the silence and expressed his opinion.

Regarding the development of the Tianzhu area, the imperial court had plans in this regard, which was in line with the emperor's wishes, but Tianzhu had too many people.

Zhu Gaochi also understood.

If at the end of the thirteenth century, the Ming Dynasty was the country with the largest population, and the Timur Khanate was the second, then by the early fourteenth century, the Ming Dynasty was the country with the largest population, and the Delhi Sultanate was the second.

According to the speculations of later scholars, the population of the Delhi Sultanate was approximately 32 million.

The Delhi Sultanate is a kingdom in northern India. It is also the largest force in the Indian continent at the moment. It has very tense relations with Bangla and other countries in the east. However, if the Ming Dynasty's forces set foot in the area, it will definitely stimulate the local situation, and there may be new developments. The change.

In Zhu Gaochi's plan, through the convenience of the Nanyang Railway, he gradually attracted local forces to join the Ming Dynasty, gradually established the Xuanweisi or vassal states, and used the power of the vassal system to expand the Ming Dynasty.

However, this plan requires local stability, and stability can develop the economy. It is the most beneficial choice for both the Ming Dynasty and the local people.

It's a pity that careerists will not let go of their ambitions. Rights come first.

Relying on force to compete for population, tribes and territory is still the mainstream idea of ​​the world's backward forces, and the Demassar and Naga people have control of the throat into the subcontinent.

The two sides became feuding, and the Ming Dynasty could not resolve the hatred between the two sides. So how did the Ming Dynasty enter the subcontinent through the local area.

In order to achieve the plan, the local area must be stably in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. However, the local indigenous people cannot let go of their hatred. This has become a deadlock unless the Ming Dynasty forcefully eliminates one party.

But to forcefully eliminate one party, even the Ming Dynasty will have to pay a high price, but the result will be more than worth the loss. Isn't it just making a wedding dress for others?

This was a headache, and Yang Shiqi had no idea for a while.

"west."

Zhu Gaochi tapped the western corner of the map.

The subcontinent actually has its own natural dangers. The mountains blocked the nomads from Central Asia and West Asia from invading the subcontinent. However, there is a gap in the mountains. As long as this gap is controlled, the subcontinent can advance, attack, retreat, and defend, and it will have a strategic advantage.

Unfortunately, this gap has not been grasped by the indigenous people of the subcontinent for thousands of years, so it has become a weapon for the nomads.

For thousands of years, the indigenous peoples of the subcontinent were ruled by aliens. This alien race declined, and other nomadic groups came in through the mouth and continued to conquer the local indigenous peoples.

The Timur Khanate also took advantage of this gap.

Others can touch it, and Ming Dynasty can also touch it. Zhu Gaochi thought of this opening. (End of chapter)
