Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 375: Yuanmai’s contribution to sealing the wolf as a Xu!Giant battleship, majestic appearance!
Start by designing a local village community.

He just thought a lot.

The rural and village economy must not be reduced to the official economy.

Nor can it be reduced to a gentry economy.

In short, in one sentence, rural village communities must not be reduced to an economy controlled by a few people.

That's why there are a series of rules such as gentry are not allowed to buy shares, shares are not transferable and can only be inherited.

Only inheritance means that the land is completely given to each family in the form of equity. Except for circulation within the family, it cannot be traded through money.

If he had directly proposed a ban on private land transactions.

Never mind that the gentry would object.

People will not understand it and will oppose it.

can't.

Most people have a dream of becoming a landlord by being diligent and thrifty.

For thousands of years, imperial power has been trapped in land annexation.

Dynasties kept changing.

Didn't the emperors ever think of banning land transactions?
thought about it.

But every emperor was afraid, and there was opposition from the elite and common people.

Let alone the issue of land annexation hundreds of years later.

It may be overthrown immediately.

The gentry could understand that rural village societies would eventually be greatly curbed and land annexation would be frozen.

As for the people.

Now, most people have not seen that the land has finally been completely frozen in the form of equity.

Why didn't the gentry remind the people?
Or, to be more precise, why were the gentry unable to arouse the common people's opposition?
Without him.

Just a guide!

Rural village communities can quickly change people's originally difficult lives.

When more and more people see that the villages have completed rural communes and their lives have improved, they will instantly abandon the elusive idea of ​​being thrifty and managing their families and annexing land.

Compared with the dream of being diligent and thrifty, annexing land, and becoming a landlord.

People prefer quick results.

After all, I can’t even get enough to eat.

Now there is a way for everyone to have enough to eat in just one or two years.

Most people will choose to eat quickly.

"Your Majesty, the gentry have seized on the loophole of the rural community. Equity cannot be transferred. But once the rural community loses all its money and needs to use equity to repay debts, they can take advantage of this loophole and cleverly transfer equity. …”

Ye Mao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

In this world, a few smart people can always find all kinds of loopholes.

Take good things and disintegrate them into pieces.

Thereby achieving an increase in one's own wealth and status.

"What about the capable leaders in the village in the future? They can also follow similar methods."

Zhu Di smiled, "So, we did a good job in this comparison! We have to thank Master Zhang!"

Ye Mao raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Zhu Di.

He could hear that the prince obviously had a way to deal with it.

Zhu Di sneered and continued: "It is not difficult to cleanse these smart gentry in Fujian. It is illegal for gentry to take shares. No matter how clever they transfer the shares, the initial procedure is already illegal. When the time comes, when I leave Beizheng and things break out, After coming back, I will use this as an excuse to handle a few ironclad cases of confiscation of homes and genocide..."

These gentry families.

There must be innocent people.

But he will not influence the entire policy for the sake of a few people.

It must be an ironclad case of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.

No matter how many innocent people are implicated, you have to do this.

What is to be done is known to the world.

Only in this way can the purpose of alerting the people be achieved.

Ye Mao looked at Zhu Di and said this calmly.

Chilled all over.

This is what makes great things happen.

Those who engage in power manipulation must have a low enough political moral bottom line.

Kill ten thousand and benefit tens of millions.

It’s not anything wrong.

"As for the capable leader in the village, who deliberately engages in compensatory business and makes the local village community lose all their money, the possibility of paying off the debt with equity can be stipulated through law..."

Just have limited liability.

If the rural village community loses compensation, the creditor can only divide the rural village community's other assets except farmland, cattle, and farm tools.

The most primitive capital, with land as equity capital, is no longer included in the liquidation.

In this way, no one can annex the equity of the rural village community.

The original equity represented by land is retained, and the weak can start over.

We must prevent capable rural leaders from engaging in dirty work in rural communities.

If they want to earn more wealth and have a higher status, the system forces them to leave the countryside and go to county and state capitals to engage in business and a series of other affairs.

Or, make rural village communities bigger and stronger.

Just like Tuqiao Village.

Uncle Ba and others joined forces with other villages to run rice shops and make wine.

The bigger the cake is, the more moisture will be distributed among it.

"In short, when a rural village community develops to a higher level, it is a kind of commercial behavior. As long as it does not develop into a gentry economy or an official economy, it doesn't matter even if there is some corruption..."

Ye Mao listened carefully, pondered and nodded silently.

Pure business behavior.

Corruption is not terrible.

In today’s businesses and shops, are the shopkeepers not greedy?
greedy!
Even in the Dayan Trading Company controlled by His Highness, there must be people who are doing something to it.

But the shopkeeper’s greed must also create profits.

Otherwise, the club can replace him.

The rural village community developed to a higher level and became what the prince called a small economy with commercial activities.

Among them, those in charge must also create benefits.

Otherwise, those families who cannot deprive themselves of their equity will not agree.

All these families have the right to vote.

Moreover, with the development of rural communities and people having money, they will definitely let their children receive education, this is for sure!
Since ancient times in the Central Plains, it has never been a matter of whether you can pass the examination or not.

The status of scholars is superior to others.

When people have money and are satisfied with their food and clothing, they will immediately save on food and expenses so that their children can study.

In the countryside more than ten years later, it will be difficult to fool!
I'm afraid the prince has already thought of this.

Therefore, the most difficult period for rural village communities was in the first ten years.

As long as the imperial court can follow the prince's vision unswervingly and provide good guidance in the first ten years.

When the rural village communities matured, the imperial court could do nothing and continue to reap dividends.

I don’t know whether His Majesty and the Crown Prince understand the prince’s good intentions.

Ye Mao came to his senses, "Your Majesty, if land is passed down within the family, as the family population increases, the per capita land will decrease, and equity will also face the same problem. How to solve this problem?"

"It's easy to solve. The advantage of equity over land is that as long as rural communities develop well, even a small amount of equity can get huge returns. If the people don't want to inherit the equity, the per capita share will be reduced, resulting in reduced benefits. The most direct The way is for everyone to work together to make the local village community where they are located bigger and stronger. In the future, there will definitely be such local village communities. They will take the lead in integrating the resources of surrounding local village communities, and several villages will unite to use more resources. resources to leverage greater wealth..."

Therefore, in the future, rural village communities, as an economic entity, will definitely have more and more say in the court.

"Other than this method, it is to divide the family. For example, the eldest son inherits the shares, but the family has to spend money to support other children to go out. Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and the court can accommodate it. In the future, the sea ban will be completely lifted, and we will open a business outside To expand the territory and assimilate the foreign barbarians, we also need the people of the Central Plains..."

It is simply unrealistic for the imperial government to bear the financial burden of people's migration.

Don't say you can't afford it now.

It is left to future generations.

Large-scale migration of people is also difficult.

But if people have money and don't want to divide their shares, it's completely feasible to save money and support their children to go out.

Because since ancient times in the Central Plains, from the imperial power to the gentry, there has been a tradition of leaving the best family property to the eldest son to inherit.

The atmosphere of the elite has already deeply affected the common people.

All social customs, most of them, are those of the elite. Throughout the ages, ordinary people have imitated the elite.

next ten years.

Today's five- and six-year-old children are faced with the problem of starting a family and starting a business.

It is foreseeable that in ten years' time, Fujian and the places that took the lead in developing rural village communities will most likely see a wave of exodus from family support.

And this was the moment he was waiting for.

At that time, he had to seize this wave of exodus and attract people from the Central Plains to migrate around the world on a large scale.

Ten years from now, the Central Plains will surely stage a magnificent wave of overseas adventures.

In the first ten years, he had to lay the foundation.

Welcome this wave of people from the Central Plains to go out of the Central Plains and explore the deep blue.

There is no foundation and not enough territory has been laid in advance.

It's too dangerous outside and will scare away the courage the people have just mustered up.

This wave is for him.

For the people of the Central Plains, when the overwhelming wealth comes, they cannot fully catch it.

When his father and mother are gone, he cannot predict what the future will be like.

Therefore, he must seize the wave that will most likely appear in ten years.

……

As Ye Mao listened to Zhu Di's ideas and plans, he seemed to be able to hear the sound of the waves surging in his heart.

Excited, with a slight blush on his face, he stood up suddenly, "Your Majesty, I have done some wrong things and stupid things. Please give me a chance to serve you to the best of your ability and let my name go down in history!"

Pfft!
After the words fell, Ye Mao fell to his knees and fell to the ground.

Perhaps, he is the first minister to hear His Highness's vision in such a complete way.

This is his luck.

He doesn't consider anything about whether he will be granted a title or a general in the future.

He cares more about the impact this thing will have on the next hundreds or even thousands of years.

Hundreds of thousands or millions of people followed them, like waves, rushing towards the Deep Blue to open up...

This is an unprecedented and unprecedented initiative.

It is destined to be remembered with great ink and color!
This achievement is comparable to Dou Xian and Ban Gu's Yanran stone carvings, and the champion Hou Huo Qubing's Fenglang Juxu.

Even beyond!

This is definitely the greatest feat in the thousands of years of history of the Central Plains!
Zhu Di smiled and said: "There are few people around me. If you are willing, of course I welcome you. Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ye Mao thanked him loudly and stood up excitedly.

……

Three days later.

Xu Miaoyun set off.

Accompanying her was Li Yu, who was also pregnant.

Before parting.

Before the carriage.

The little cotton-padded jacket hugged Zhu Di and refused to let go, "Dad, mother doesn't want to leave you..."

Xu Miaoyun blushed instantly.

The others laughed and turned around.

His Highness's little Qihua is really weird.

Xu Miaoyun blushed and said angrily: "If you don't want to do it yourself, don't use me as a cover!"

What evil had she done? This black-hearted little cotton-padded jacket was leaking everywhere.

Complain to Shiro: She keeps small accounts.

Now she is pestering Shiro under her guise!

Zhu Di glanced at Xu Miaoyun with a smile. What Miaoyun did back then, now all the little cotton-padded jackets are back.

With a smile, he coaxed softly: "Daddy will go back soon. Haven't you been shouting about our old home and the village where Senior Brother Dongxu lives? If you don't leave now, you will have no choice but to wait until dad returns to Jinling. Are you willing to stay in Fujian with your mother?"

The little girl looked up.

Black Doudou looked at Zhu Di with big eyes and shook his head.

He leaned close to Zhu Di's ear and whispered quietly: "Dad, no matter how busy you are, you must eat well, rest well, and soak your feet with herbs. I will ask my brother to supervise you. If you can't do it, in the future, I won’t kiss you anymore!”

Zhu Di looked at Yong Ming with a smile.

The brat is quite reserved.

He pursed his lips and turned his head to look to the side.

Turning around, he promised with a smile: "Okay, when your elder brother and I go back to pick you up, you can ask your elder brother to report to you. If dad doesn't do it, don't kiss dad!"

The little girl nodded.

Only then did he reach out to Xu Miaoyun for a hug.

Xu Miaoyun caught it with a glare.

Zhu Di handed the imperial gold medal to Xu Miaoyun and whispered: "If you encounter problems on the road and the brothers can't solve them, use the imperial gold medal. I can bear no matter how much trouble you two get into."

The reason for keeping a low profile this time.

I'm just worried about something happening on the road.

He has harmed the interests of too many people over the years.

I don't know how many people hated him to the core.

There is no guarantee that someone will not take the risk.

Xu Miaoyun nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and Qihua."

She is very clear.

Ever since the incident of Jin Yiwei winning over Lu Zhen happened.

Shiro guessed that the situation between North Korea and China had undergone subtle changes.

This series of subtle changes.

Shiro's attitude is: 'Don't think too much, don't make random guesses! '

But it doesn't mean that Shiro is unprepared and alert.

Zhu Di nodded.

He turned around and came to the old brother who was escorting him on this trip.

Without waiting for Zhu Di to speak.

The old brother lowered his voice and said solemnly: "Your Highness, brothers all know what to do. During this trip, if anyone makes things difficult for the princess, even if they are gods and Buddhas, brothers will kill them without mercy!"

Zhu Di smiled and nodded.

They are all old brothers who came back from the grassland with him and died.

He could give his back to them without reservation.

"Let's go!"

Following Zhu Di's order.The brothers in disguise escorted a carriage away slowly.

……

Later, Zhu Di stayed in Fujian and returned to Jian'an to deal with some matters.

end of January.

Return to Min County again and prepare to return to Jilong Island.

Xu Huizu's study.

"Brother-in-law, now that you have the opportunity, just focus on your Dongfan." Xu Huizu smiled and joked. In fact, he knew that his brother-in-law was trying to reduce his influence in Fujian as much as possible.

So as not to irritate some people in the DPRK too much.

Even so.

Some people began to talk that Fujian was no longer the Fujian of the imperial court, but the Fujian of King Yan.

Zhu Di smiled and glared, "Let's get down to business, what's the matter? I just entered the city and you mysteriously wanted to talk to me alone."

As soon as he arrived in Min County, Hui Zu mysteriously said that he had something to talk to him alone.

"A few days ago, I received a letter from my father. My father said in the letter that His Majesty has ordered Liaodong to launch a campaign to expel Nahachu this year. It should be to avoid the northern expedition to fight on multiple fronts and burden the court too much..."

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows slightly.

it has started!

The start of the Liaodong Campaign was the prelude to this northern expedition.

It seemed to be pretty much what he expected.

Based on Uncle Tang's ability to command troops and the imperial government's relatively abundant treasury in recent years, there is a high probability that the Liaodong war will come to an end before the end of this year.

"In addition, my father also said that His Majesty has revealed that after the Northern Expedition, he will be touring Fujian to the south. Your Majesty, the Queen... I am afraid that the scale of this southern tour will be larger, far exceeding the last observation group."

Zhu Di couldn't help but stare in surprise.

This is a bit unexpected.

"Did Taishan tell me about my mother's condition?"

Throughout the 15 years of Hongwu, he had been on tenterhooks and watched the heroes closely.

Unexpectedly, the queen mother fell ill.

If Chunxiao hadn't written to him and Miaoyun, he wouldn't have known about it.

Xu Huizu said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, my aunt's illness has improved. She will return to Jinling during the Chinese New Year. I heard from my father that after the New Year, Your Majesty will send my aunt to Tuqiao Village. My aunt will get along with Eight Aunts and the others in Tuqiao Village. There is nothing to worry about." If anything, you will definitely live a long life.”

……

at the same time.

Zhouzhuang Shen Garden.

After Xu Miaoyun arrived in Zhouzhuang, the Shen family, which had received the news early, had already scanned the tower and waited.

The third room of the Shen family.

In recent years, industries have been gradually transferred to Fujian and Dongpan.

However, most people in Sanfang have not yet migrated.

After Xu Miaoyun arrived.

I stayed in the third room of the Shen family.

After a rest day.

The women of the Shen family accompanied Xu Miaoyun to visit the local village community built with the help of the Shen family.

Here, Xu Miaoyun saw the mulberry garden built by the Shen family to help the people.

I visited people raising silkworms.

I saw young rural girls weaving silk and embroidering.

The Zhouzhuang rural community built with the help of the Shen family is more refined and complete than the Jian'an rural community.

This is also normal.

Jian'an, and even the entire rural village community in Fujian.

Shiro always uses business behavior and macro guidance after laying a good foundation.

It's bound to be impossible to be precise.

Zhouzhuang has deeply cultivated and refined local village communities. It can be seen that the Shen family has indeed spent a lot of effort and thought.

Xu Miaoyun was not stingy and said something that the Shen family wanted to hear.

That night.

Xu Miaoyun put Qihua to sleep and was about to rest.

The door was knocked.

When he opened the door, he found that it was Shen Zhi's wife.

"Princess, I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"

"No."

Xu Miaoyun invited the person into the house and chatted for a few words. He turned to his wife and asked tentatively: "Princess, I heard that Your Majesty is going to visit Fujian in the south. Is it true?"

Xu Miaoyun was slightly taken aback.

She really didn't know the news.

When Xu Da's letter arrived in Min County, Xu Miaoyun and his party had already set off.

"I did not receive this news." Xu Miaoyun asked with a gentle smile: "Who did you listen to?"

"My cousin is an official in Beijing. He wrote back and said that the whole capital is talking about this matter..."

After hearing what Shen Zhi's wife said, Xu Miaoyun concluded that it was probably true.

A place like Jinling is full of holes.

She also knew the purpose of Shen Zhi's wife coming.

It must have been entrusted by the eldest and second bedroom of the Shen family.

If the guess is correct, the Shen family must have hoped that their father would come to Zhouzhuang Shen Garden during his southern tour to see the local village community that the Shen family helped the people build.

The Shen family lives on thin ice and hopes to be recognized by their father, so that they can be at ease.

"If the matter is true, and my father is passing through Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Silang can help the Shen family think of a way to have His Majesty come to the Shen family to have a look..."

She didn't finish talking.

However, what the Shen family has done in the past few years is indeed remarkable.

If we can give the Shen family some reassurance and set the Shen family as a model, it will be good for the court and the local villages.

Moreover, the third brother of the Shen family has really helped Shiro a lot over the years.

Shiro just mentioned 20 taels of silver.

Shen Zhi and his father immediately helped raise funds.

This money was paid back to the Shen family after the shop on Jilong Island was sold. After Silang became a little more comfortable, he returned the money to the Shen family for three bedrooms.

Shen Zhi's wife hurriedly stood up and said gratefully: "Thank you, Princess, thank you, Princess."

This matter actually has nothing to do with the third room.

After all, Sanfang will follow King Yan to develop overseas.

But after all, they are a family. The eldest and second bedrooms humbly asked for help from the third bedroom.

The princess's revelations, whether successful or not, gave them enough face.

……

After Xu Miaoyun rested briefly at Shen's house, she continued her journey north.

Although Xu Miaoyun was very low-key when she returned to Beijing, how could she hide this kind of thing? Jin Yiwei's spies in Fujian were closely guarded.

Daming territory.

The Jinyiwei system is the most complete and intensive in the two places.

One is Jinling.

One is Fujian.

Half a month after Xu Miaoyun left the Shen family.

The news spread back to Jinling.

At this time, Ma Xiuying had not yet left for Tuqiao Village.

Kunning Palace.

After Zhu Yuanzhang put down the letter and newspaper, he stared at Jiang Yu with sharp eyes, "You Jin Yiwei will ensure that Miao Yun and her daughter are safe. If they lose a hair, you will kill yourself!"

Jiang Wei's pupils trembled, and a chill spread all over his body. He hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will personally go to greet Princess Yan!"

He could tell that the emperor was not trying to scare him.

If something happens to Xu Miaoyun's mother and daughter, he really has to be buried with her!

Zhu Silang has done all the bad and cruel things, and now he is finally scared?

Otherwise, why is Xu Miaoyun's whereabouts so low-key?

……

Hey!
Seeing Jiang Yu leave, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sighed and patted his knees, "We owe this bastard fourth son of ours a lot."

The wife and daughter return to court.

You have to be so cautious.

Why?

Isn’t that the case? You have offended too many people by doing this and that for him over the years?

Isn’t it a whetstone for Biao’er and has offended too many people?

But there's nothing he can do to make up for this son?

"How about after Xiao Qihua returns to the palace, let her come to the palace to stay with us and you for a while, and then you go to Tuqiao Village?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ma Xiuying.

Wait for Xiao Yongming to come back with the fourth child.

He will take charge of it himself for a while.

Ma Xiuying smiled and nodded.

……

Jiang Wei suddenly left Beijing with a large number of Jin Yiwei.

The upper levels of Jinling were alerted immediately.

"What did this eagle dog do?"

"The entire Jinling Jinyi Guard's elite soldiers and generals have left!"

"Isn't something big going to happen?"

……

The courtiers and dignitaries were talking a lot, but no matter how much they inquired, they couldn't get any information.

……

As the time goes.

After Jiang Wei left, he did not return to Beijing for a long time.

When all the officials in Jinling became even more uneasy.

Jilong Island.

Shen Zhi, Yu Jing, and Jiang Jinzhong stood in the expanded dock and looked at the behemoth.

Yu Jingle grinned from ear to ear, "This is the warship our navy needs, Old Chiang. In the future, our navy will all be equipped with this kind of warship!"

Jiang Jinzhong's face turned green, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Think beautiful!
He had been on Shen Zhi and Yu Jing's pirate ship from the very beginning!
In the beginning, the budget these two bastards came up with was only 2 taels.

But not long after the construction started, Yu Jing came to him shamelessly with a flattering smile on his face and asked for money.

At that time he wanted to refuse.

What did this bastard say? It only takes 3 taels to build. If you give up now, the initial 2 taels will be wasted.

He gritted his teeth and finally squeezed out 3 taels.

Okay.

Wait until the entire warship is completed.

That bastard Yu Jing just told him to think about it for him in order not to embarrass him.

Borrowed 3 taels from Shen Zhi!
Shen Zhi also patted his chest and said, this is the Shen family's contribution to the navy and there is no need to pay it back.

But he knew the prince's character.

How could you agree to such a thing?

I can only search my pockets and pay off the Shen family's 3 taels bit by bit.

A full 8 million taels!
Only then did we have the current warship, which was 33 feet long, four feet wide, and four feet high, equipped with three huge sails.

There are four cabins in total.

Above the waterline, there are three levels of cabins.

Fifteen to twenty artillery pieces are arranged on each floor.

With deck guns.

There are eighty doors on each side on the left and right sides!
The entire warship is equipped with 180 artillery pieces!

This is not the drawing that bastard Yu Jing showed him at first!
The original drawings had a maximum configuration of 120 artillery pieces.

These two bastards, during the construction process, constantly enlarged the scale of the warship, and they also claimed that the design was inaccurate. During the first construction, everything was groping, and mistakes would inevitably be made as a result of groping.

"Eighty thousand taels is enough to assemble an army town. I will get on your pirate ship and get a ship. The prince comes back from Palawan Island. If he wants to die, you guys will die with me!"

This matter has been carried behind the prince's back.

The prince came to inspect the shipyard several times.

They all claimed that this was a ship customized by the Shen family.

It wasn't until the prince and the princess left Jilong Island.

Only then began to work hard to remove the camouflaged shooting port in the cabin and assemble the artillery.

Yu Jing and Shen Zhi looked at each other with smiles.

In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that Xu Xianchang returned to Jinling and brought back the water pattern of the Qinhuai River.

No matter how big the warship is built, it will be great.

It cannot enter the Qinhuai River.

They will make it bigger.

Shen Zhi and Yu Jing put their arms around Jiang Jinzhong's shoulders.

Yu Jing smiled and said: "Old Chiang, don't be so sad. It's our first time to build such a huge warship. We have no experience, so we spent 8 taels on you. In the future, we will build such a ship without artillery, which will cost [-] to [-] taels." That’s about it.”

This giant warship took two years to build!

The cost of trial and error is too high.

According to calculations after completion, if the cost of trial and error is cut off, the maximum cost of such a warship with artillery is 4 taels.

In other words, the prince’s pocket is cleaner than his face now.

As long as the prince has 100 million taels, he must defraud at least 80 taels and build twenty ships.

This is called the Navy!
Today's naval warships are simply children's toys compared to this one.

Shen Zhi also smiled and comforted: "Old Chiang, if we can build this warship, it is equivalent to mastering the construction technology of large-scale maritime trade merchant ships. With this contribution, our Jilongyu Shipyard will be able to build Golden eggs, this is an order placed by our Shen family and other Fujian powerful people..."

Jiang Jinzhong took it and looked at the orders for the five ships. A smile instantly appeared on his face, "In this way, I dare to face the prince. In a few months, the prince's birthday will be. According to past habits, the prince will definitely come back with Dongxu and the others. However, when the time comes, we will give this warship to the prince as a birthday gift."

"good idea!"

"Old Jiang, you are the biggest flatterer around the prince! You should be punished!"

"I have spent so much money, and now I can't wait to sail this warship back to Jinling... Yu Jing, I will not be able to accompany you when you return to Jinling soon. You have to give the prince a chance, or I will strangle you to death! "
