The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 728
The "New Hangzhou" under construction will include the city of Ayutthaya, and three bridges across the Chao Phraya River are under construction. The seven-mile-long all-concrete bridge that does not affect the navigation of the river is unique in this era.

The three bridges adopt different designs and will become one of the landmark buildings of "New Hangzhou" after completion.

"New Hangzhou" will become the largest city in "Nanming", with a population of no less than 150 million at that time.

This is the center of the Indochina Peninsula, with a unique geographical location, and it is ideal as the capital of the "Southern Ming Dynasty".

Guests who came to "New Hangzhou" were attracted by such a treasured land, and many people began to negotiate the purchase of land and villas.

They knew that if they started early, they would save an untold amount of silver coins. The largest city in the "Nanming" kingdom, whose land area would be no less than [-]% to [-]% of that of Ming Dynasty, would be born here soon. There would be countless business opportunities in the future, and land prices would soar just around the corner.

In December, the capital of the Ming Dynasty was in the middle of winter, and the vegetation had long since withered and turned into ice.

However, the capital of "Nanming" is full of vitality with the fragrance of melons and fruits, and the surrounding rice fields are rippling in the gentle wind, setting off thousands of waves of rice.

Accustomed to seeing the depression of all industries in the Ming Dynasty and seeing the dry and cracked fields in the Ming Dynasty, many dignitaries and dignitaries of the Ming Dynasty who went south for the first time saw the commercially prosperous "Nanming" city, and saw hundreds of millions of acres of rice fields with guaranteed harvests from droughts and floods.

Of course, they will make wise choices to seek a new world where they and their families can settle down.

The mother-in-law fell in love with "New Hangzhou". When she was a child, she lived in Nanjing and didn't like the dryness and coldness in the north. Seeing her daughter begging her to spend her later years in "New Hangzhou", she readily agreed.

She plans to go back with her husband to deal with some real estate and land property, and try her best to persuade the children of the family to come with her.

The old lady has knowledge. She saw that her son-in-law's country was strong and strong, and she heard how the two son-in-laws who had been officials here for several years talked about how the "Nanming" had a good government and a harmonious people.

The old lady was very caring and knew why her son-in-law wanted to immigrate in large numbers, so she was going to do her best to use her appeal to let the children of the Zhang family and the Xu family come to "Nanming" to develop.

The Zhang family and the Xu family, the two honorable families that have inherited the highest titles for more than two hundred years, are by no means easy, and the combined population of the derived branches may have reached hundreds of thousands.

It is not a problem for tens of thousands of people to come to "Nanming" to seek development. There are too many jobs and business opportunities here.

Huang Sheng does not discriminate against nobles, nor does he have the dirty idea that the poor are buddies and the rich are enemies.

On the contrary, Huang Sheng believed in his heart that the overall quality of nobles and intellectuals should be better than that of ordinary people.

Aristocrats who came to "Nanming" could obtain official positions through new learning and public recruitment, and they were treated equally when they were promoted.

Be tolerant to diversity, tolerance is a virtue.A wall stands a thousand feet high, and one can be strong without desire.Huang Sheng's criteria for judging good and bad people has nothing to do with their economic conditions, nor their family background, and everything is in accordance with the law.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a saying that "one Qing magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflake silver".

This means that even a clean magistrate who is not corrupt and perverts the law, after a term of three years, only 10 taels of money should be earned from various illegal practices.

If it is a prefect who is black-hearted and greedy, then he does not know how much he will earn.This is of course a bit exaggerated, but it also nakedly expresses the lack of the Ming Dynasty's supervisory official system.

The legal income of officials in the Ming Dynasty is the sum of various salaries and expenses, which is ridiculous. The annual salary of the county magistrate is only more than 100 taels of silver, and the magistrate is only more than 200 taels of silver. This also includes the monthly money of their handymen and bearers. .

Therefore, if the officials of the Ming Dynasty did not engage in stereotypes and bad habits to take money, they would really be like Hai Rui who couldn't even afford meat, and their concubines would hang themselves.

"Nanming" implements the salary system of high salaries and honesty, and the legal income of officials is more than five times that of bureaucrats of the same level in Ming Dynasty.

The "Nanming" government abolished the ding tax, and increased the mining tax, industrial and commercial tax, real estate tax, deed tax, and vehicle and vessel tax.

It can be accumulative, you can take leave, and you can’t use silver coins as a labor service. The government is responsible for reimbursement of food and traveling expenses during the labor service period. In the event of casualties, [-]% of the standard for dead soldiers will be issued as pensions.

For example, if ordinary people participate in major national projects, such as building reservoirs, roads, river embankments, etc., if they work for half a year, it means that the ordinary people's free contributions within six years have been completed.

His family no longer needs to have a male to participate in state-style voluntary labor within six years.

The "Nanming" government instilled the concept of equality between men and women as much as possible, and women can also perform hard labor, but two people can be considered a strong labor force, and the jobs are different. The jobs on the construction site are cooking, sewing, cleaning, etc. easy labor.

With such a humane management, some families simply perform labor labor as husband and wife, and can complete years or even ten years of labor labor tasks in a few months.

Of course, there are also males who bring concubines from other races to serve, because too many Han families have become rich, and many people have already taken concubines.

This is mainly due to the continuous war in Southeast Asia and the serious imbalance in the ratio of men to women. Monogamy will cause too many women to marry, and young and middle-aged Han people can only dedicate themselves more.

The Marriage Law of the "Nanming" has been promulgated, which clarifies that the concubines of Han people are also protected by law, and that civilians of other ethnicities have no right to concubines, and that family planning is implemented for all ethnicities other than Han. The basic policy of putting an end to the third child and avoiding the fourth child.

If a family of a different ethnic group has three children who are all daughters, they can continue to have children if they want a son, even if they have eight daughters.If it is a family of a different ethnicity that already has two sons, it is illegal for them to regenerate. After being arrested and sentenced, they will be sent to the coal mine for labor reform in nine out of ten cases.

Huang Sheng thinks that he has done his utmost benevolence, and that the Han people of later generations can accept only one child. Under his strong management, families of different ethnic groups can have two or three children and still dare not be satisfied, just shameless.

The Marriage Law also stipulates that as long as one of the parents is Han, the children must be of Han nationality. Now even Mongolians such as black tigers, black panthers, and black horses happily accept the fact that their children are Han, because their wives and concubines are fragrant. Han women.

There is no doubt that the stable and peaceful Indochina Peninsula will usher in a birth peak. "Nanming" medical care has made great progress, and the maternal mortality rate and infant mortality rate are declining every year. The next generation of Han people who receive nutrition and free education will have a healthy body and quality Going up the steps, even the average height is increasing.

The demographic dividend of the Han people will make "Nanming" even more powerful, and more women of different ethnicities will become Han concubines, which is of course icing on the cake.
