Chapter 13 Damn it, is Nanyang so rich?

Tang Jing fulfilled Zheng He's order and began to act quickly. At this moment, there were more than [-] sea-going ships and [-] sea-going ships were completely empty.

These ships quickly entered the ports of various countries and began to load and unload grain.

Facing the soldiers of tomorrow, it was naturally impossible for anyone to default on their debts, and no one dared to default on their debts. The food was quickly loaded and unloaded.

Sea-going ships started heading back towards Daming with huge drafts.

It took almost a month to come, and it took one and a half months to return. Tang Jing returned to Quanzhou Port with these ships. After more than ten days, the grain arrived in Shandong by sea.

Although two ships were lost due to wind and waves during the journey, such losses were nothing compared to the gains.

The news quickly spread back to Kyoto.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Zhu Di was discussing finances with Xia Yuanji when he got this news suddenly.

But in this piece of news, Zhu Di was a little confused.

Subconsciously looked at the memorial in his hand, and then at the reporting figure in front of him.

"What did you say?"

"Your Majesty, it's true. General Tang is in charge of dispatching at the port, and a large amount of food is entering the warehouse and transporting it to Kyoto!"

The figure spoke respectfully, and at this moment he also felt his stuttering.

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

Xia Yuanji seemed to hear some term, his eyes lit up, and he asked quickly.

"You see!"

Zhu Di handed the memorial in his hand to Xia Yuanji.

Xia Yuanji quickly took it.

When the words on it appeared, Xia Yuanji couldn't help being shocked.

"This!"

His eyes instantly turned to Zhu Di, Xia Yuanji's expression was filled with disbelief.

What they were talking about just now was the issue of food. During the perennial battle, there is actually a lot of food gaps in Daming. During this period of time, a large number of workshops have appeared. Immediately, 18 stones of food were sent to us.

At this moment, Zhu Di thought of more, and his figure hurriedly came to the dragon chair, and looked at the volume of world map on the desk.

In other words, he looked towards Nanyang.

The one he never noticed.

18 shi of grain, and there may be more than 30 shi of grain in the future. This suddenly, all of a sudden made his heart skip a beat.

"Xia Yuanji, what do you think if I take Nanyang?"

Zhu Di muttered to himself, at this moment he felt that he couldn't restrain his excitement.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this won't work. The Nanyang miasma is rampant, and the countries are fighting in chaos. I am afraid it will be difficult for Ming Dynasty to control it!"

"If your majesty orders the conquest, big problems will easily arise. It is better to follow the advice of those gentlemen that your majesty has obtained, and let Nanyang plant food and grass for my Ming Dynasty by means of a transaction."

Xia Yuanji took a deep breath, then shook his head with a wry smile.

Although he was dazed by the food for a moment, he soon regained consciousness.

The situation in Nanyang is too complicated, too far away from Ming Dynasty, and it is too difficult to control.

Compared to this, Jiang Chen's method undoubtedly costs much less.

In order to solve Xia Yuanji's worries before, Zhu Di showed Jiang Chen's strategy to Xia Yuanji.

At this moment, he naturally knew that compared to the expensive cost of governance, this was actually lower and more rewarding.

"call!"

"I'm worried!"

"indeed!"

Listening to Xia Yuanji's words, Zhu Di took a deep breath, suppressed his thoughts of sending troops immediately, and nodded.

"Your Majesty, since Nanyang has so much food, we can't waste it. In the future, we can completely follow the method of that gentleman and let Nanyang provide food and grass. As for the supplies, I suggest that we immediately dispatch people from the Ministry of Industry to start production."

Seeing Zhu Di speak, Xia Yuanji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly added something.

"No, sir, if the benefits of heaven do not make the people, the country will remain weak. The Ministry of Households will order that all supplies will still be purchased by the people."

Listening to Xia Yuanji's words, Zhu Di shook his head, but he did not forget Jiang Chen's criticism of his voyage to the West.

It is naturally impossible to change it at this moment.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Xia Yuanji hesitated, but still bowed.

"Okay, Xia Yuanji, the food issue won't be a problem. If Zheng He can bring back that acre of food that produces a thousand catties of grain, it will be even less of a problem."

"When I subdue the grassland, and follow the strategy of Mr. Wang, I will build an unprecedented Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Di laughed and spoke, his eyes filled with longing.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Xia Yuanji couldn't help being excited at the moment.

When Jiang Chen's strategy was presented, the world map was presented, and the 10,000+ stone grains were presented, Xia Yuanji couldn't help but feel excited. He felt a majestic prosperity beckoning to him.

Perhaps this will be China's second prosperous age since the Tang Dynasty, and it will also be an unprecedented prosperous age.

Of course, no one in the palace knew about Zhu Di and Xia Yuanji's excitement.

When Xia Yuanji left the palace.

The Department of Revenue quickly conveyed another order.

A new round of procurement has begun.

This time it directly expanded ten times.

That's right, compared to the previous purchase intensity, this moment has directly expanded ten times.

That purchase intensity of more than ten times made almost all the merchants crazy, even a large number of handicraftsmen in the Ming Dynasty went crazy.

Although the deposit paid this time is almost the same as before.

But for the first time, no one doubted that the court would default on its debt.

A large amount of supplies began to be mobilized, and a large number of idle Ming people were also mobilized.

When Lao Zhu was there, the population of Daming had already reached more than 6000 million. After decades of development, the population of Daming had undoubtedly increased, and the land that could be reclaimed had basically been reclaimed. Start to appear.

At the same time, land consolidation also began to occur.

Not surprisingly, as time goes by, these people will gradually be absorbed by the landlords or become gangsters, but the moment they appear now, they begin to be absorbed by the workshops.

Some problems were avoided from the start.

Maybe he will have some new problems, but now, under the stimulation of huge orders, these problems are not a problem, at least not for now.

The entire Ming Dynasty's system quietly further transformed under this situation.

It's just this transformation, so far no one can know.

Zhu Di didn't know.

Xia Yuanji doesn't know.

Jiang Chen didn't know even more.

He was just bragging in the chat group, but he didn't expect that it was Zhu Di on the other side, and that Zhu Di was heading in the direction of his bragging.
