The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 90

Guard in Yanshan.

Each guard house has five thousand-household offices below it, with principal and deputy thousand-household offices, and each thousand-household office has a hundred-household office below.

The guard set up a guard command and envoy division, and the guard command and envoy divisions in various parts of Beiping were managed by the Peking capital.

The Yanshan Guard is different, it belongs to the guard of the prince.

In Yanshan Mountain, guarding the commander and envoy.

All five thousand households came to listen to the commander's envoy regarding the eldest son's recruitment of military households.

"A total of 2000 people will be recruited, 700 for our guard and 600 for the right guard, and [-] for the left guard." Tang Yun said happily.

700 people is already a lot.

One person from each household, that is seven hundred households.

"Head, how much is the monthly salary?" A big man said lame words.

The man is called Huo Zhen.

It's the Mongols.

You don't need to call yourself a slave or a slave, you have the same status as the Han people, everyone is a same robe, and now you are a thousand households.

"One, two, five."

"700 people, we have covered thousands of households, and we will never make things difficult."

Huo really spoke immediately.

"Head, don't worry." Huo Zhen didn't look at the rest of his colleagues, patted his chest and said, "Everyone in our Qianhu Office is a good man who can work, and he will never lose face."

"fart."

Qiu Fu was furious, "I went to the palace with me before, and for the sake of brotherhood, I didn't even propose to eat alone."

Huo Zhe scratched the back of his head, pretending to be stupid, and said, "You Qianhusuo also want it? They are all brothers, so it's easy to say."

Everyone was speechless.

This guy usually looks simple and honest, but if anyone really underestimates him and tricks him easily, he will suffer a lot.

In fact, a thief is a thief.

This person will contribute a lot in the future battle of Jingnan, and it can be said that he is among the top ten, and he has won Zhu Di's trust.

"Don't quarrel, the old man has already planned it."

"Although the King of Yan said to be fair, we are from the army. I don't talk about fairness, but only about merit. Do you have something to say?"

Everyone said they didn't dare.

Although there are occasional jokes in normal times, everyone knows Tang Yun's temperament well, and there are some things that cannot be against him.

Tang Yun looked calm and told everyone the result.

Qiu Fu and Huozhen guards each have 200 people, and the three of you will share 500 people equally. "

"Qiu Fu and Huo Zhen do a good job on weekdays, so the two of them each have 200 people, and the three of you will share 500 people equally."

"Here."

Thousands of households bowed their hands.

Recruiting from military households is naturally different from civilians.

Workers are already highly organized, and now they are still from military households, and they have their own organization. Naturally, Zhu Gaochi will not break this organization.

Zhu Di will not allow Zhu Gaochi to act recklessly.

Many of the three guards are his confidantes, and they usually listen to him. Now that they have this method, they are tantamount to cheating on him.

This is much better than his painless rewards every year.

To support the army and the people with work.

Changed the production method of military households.

Military households have changed from being attached to the land and controlled by the officers of the guard to being attached to the engineering team and controlled by Zhu Di.

It is the same reason that factory workers have changed from being attached to the land by the common people and controlled by the landlord to being attached to the factory and controlled by the factory owner.

Even if Zhu Di didn't understand the power of this, Zhu Gaochi would tell him.

What's more, Zhu Di is very human.

Many truths are clear.

Zhu Di couldn't help but sigh, and told Zhu Gaochi something he didn't know.

"Boss, you had a troublesome matter, but you solved it invisibly. It's your luck."

luck.

essential to a person.

Zhu Di valued Zhu Gaochi more.

My eldest son, not only has ability, but also luck.

"what?"

Zhu Gaochi was at a loss.

I am kind to the people, courteous to officials, courteous to generals, polite to businessmen, and kind to workers.

In short, follow a principle.

Try not to offend anyone.

What trouble can I have?
"When you say you want to expand the workforce, there will be thousands of workers in your hands. They are all strong laborers and they have to serve corvee. The government can't turn a blind eye."

"We originally thought you would recruit from civilians, but we didn't expect you to recruit from military households. The problem will be solved from the root."

It's not that simple.

When there are hundreds of people, it is also influential, but the government can still turn a blind eye.

More than 1000 people.

The government may or may not make a move, depending on the prestige of King Yan's Mansion in the government.

More than 3000 people.

The government will definitely take action.

But the boss recruited the guards with one trick. The guards serve in the military, but they don't have to serve corvee service to the government. So the government will naturally choose not to do it because of scruples.

After hearing Zhu Di's explanation, Zhu Gaochi suddenly realized.

But where is my luck?

It has nothing to do with luck at all.

For example, the reason for the birth of the railway is to solve the problem of roads.

The same is true.

If you run other factories, fewer people will serve in government corvée, but local affairs will not be reduced.

What are the local affairs?

Paving roads and building bridges, post office servants and so on.

These corvees will be apportioned to other people, which means that the corvees that other people have to serve will become heavier.

And railways are also roads.

Its appearance has reduced the freight volume of ordinary roads, extended the service life, and reduced the corvee in a disguised form. The result is not only beneficial to the government, but also beneficial to the common people.

The thing about the post station can also go through the railway.

UK, Italy and France.

The latter two have stronger new technologies than the UK.

But only the United Kingdom had an industrial revolution, and let the latter two learn from the British industrial revolution.

What is learned is not technology.

but patterns.

why?

Because Britain's breakthrough in technology just conforms to the needs of the times and conforms to the law of the development of things.

Coal, railroads and more.

Not only the birth of technology, but also not just the dumping of commodities, but the promotion of national productivity.

What is productivity?It's not called production.

For example, railways have virtually solved many problems.

on specific things.

It solves the problem of post stations, roads, goods circulation, etc., and it can be said that it solves the problem of ordinary people serving corvee in a disguised form.

"It's not luck, it's a coincidence." Zhu Gaochi told Zhu Di another truth.

"You boy."

Zhu Di was helpless.

The boss always has a set of truths, and he can say a thing or two about anything.

Zhu Di had long since given up reasoning with the boss.

When the two father and son were talking happily, finally a big news came from Ying Tian Mansion.

Prince.

Passed away.

Zhu Biao's death was a heavy blow to Daming during the Hongwu Dynasty.

The consequences are huge.

Contrary to what Zhu Gaochi thought, none of the vassal princes from all over the country went to Beijing to pay homage, because Ying Tianfu did not issue an edict.

The vassal king is not allowed to leave the vassal land without an edict.

Hearing Zhu Di's sad tone, Zhu Gaochi remembered that according to Zhu Yuanzhang's daily life records, during Zhu Biao's funeral, there was indeed no shadow of the vassal king.

next year.

Zhu Yuanzhang would issue a special edict to let the vassal kings from all over the country enter Beijing.

Everyone is not a fool.

The prince is dead, who is not moved by the vassal kings?

Even if the behavior is sad, crying heart and soul, people outside will not believe it, they will only doubt the motive.

Of course, what should be done is still to be done, and what should be sad is still sad.

If you are really not sad and still laughing and laughing every day, that is ironclad evidence and will definitely lead to impeachment.

The palace not only set up sacrificial sheds, but also allowed monks from various temples to perform rituals.

Zhu Gaochi didn't have time to waste on this matter, he was very busy every day, just came back from outside, and bumped into his two younger brothers.

"Big brother."

"Why are you walking with a limp?"

"Second brother was beaten by the father."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Zhu Gaoxu's face flushed red.

Zhu Gaochi was speechless.

"Recently, my father has been beating you more and more times. It wasn't like this before."

"Second brother sees that it's okay for eldest brother to contradict his father every time. He doesn't listen to our persuasion, and he has to learn from elder brother every time, but he gets beaten every time."

"My mother didn't allow us to go out these few days, but my eldest brother was not at home every day, so my second brother slipped out of the school grounds and was beaten by my father when he came back."

The third younger brother Zhu Gaosui rushed ahead of Zhu Gaoxu to ask and answer, and did not give Zhu Gaoxu a chance to cover up, he was so angry that he almost wanted to beat up the third brother.

"Okay, okay, don't always disobey your father in the future, and you will get a bad reputation." Zhu Gaochi taught him kindly.

"Where is brother going?"

"We have something to do with our father."

Seeing the back of his eldest brother leaving, Zhu Gaoxu was extremely wronged, and told the third child a secret, "Father doesn't like us anymore."

The third one listened.

First he was stunned for a moment, then he curled his mouth, turned around and ran, crying while running.

"Hey, what are you running for?"

Zhu Gaoxu was dumbfounded, and asked loudly from behind.

"Let's... let's ask mother."

"You stand."

Zhu Gaoxu ran after him.

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but shook his head when he heard the movement behind him, the young man didn't know his worries, he was really happy.

I work hard all day, because I can't do it without hard work. I know the history well, and I know that I don't have the life of a rich prince.

When I saw Zhu Di, I saw the sadness on his face.

Zhu Gaochi finally remembered, wasn't his behavior a bit too reckless these days?
Even if you're not sad at all, you have to put on a show.

So I tried my best to squeeze out a sad look, but after trying it, it didn't feel right, so I could only lower my head again.

He really has no feelings for Zhu Biao.

Acting is too rigid, it is better to say nothing, it is best to keep your head down.

Zhu Di didn't say anything, just stared at his eldest son, his eyes were full of scrutiny, his son didn't care about his uncle's death at all.

No one needs to lie to anyone.

"Boss."

"Some things don't need to be delusional."

If it was in the past, Zhu Di would naturally criticize the eldest son, but who made the eldest son outstanding, so Zhu Di was a little reluctant, and instead taught him kindly.

Zhu Gaochi nodded.

When the crown prince died of illness, there have been many incidents in history. Taking history as a mirror, they can be roughly divided into two types.

One is the succession of the prince's brother, and the other is the succession of the prince's son.

The latter has nothing to do with Zhu Di.

The former has nothing to do with Zhu Di.

Because Zhu Di has two older brothers above him, they were born to Empress Ma, and they are both legitimate sons.

Both King Qin and King Jin are possible.

If the King of Qin did not commit any crimes last year, there is no doubt that he is the only one who is qualified to participate. Unfortunately, there is no such thing, so many people bet on the King of Jin.

Zhu Di was born late, does he have any regrets?

Zhu Gaochi guessed yes.

But Zhu Di thought he had no chance, so he hid it deeply.

"There's nothing unexpected about the military household, right?"

"No."

"Try not to cause trouble, the more stable the better." Zhu Di was still worried, and said again: "Let's go to your construction site to have a look in person in a few days."
