I'm a big dick

Chapter 592 The goal after 20 years

In fact, since the emperor dared to let Wu Keshan go to Horqin to be a Zasak, he didn't worry about any accidents.Zaisangbuhe, as well as the two sisters, are not hostages.

Letting Hai Lanzhu and Bumbutai stay in Shaoying Academy is to let them receive more influence of Han culture.This is the same as letting the descendants of chieftains receive education.

Listening to his sister's words, Bumbutai shook his head lightly and said, "Father doesn't need to be the leader, as long as we both work hard. Didn't the emperor say that as long as we can graduate from primary school, he will let us go out?"

Hai Lanzhu pondered for a moment, then said, "I'm afraid he's just an excuse."

"Isn't it a golden word, the emperor still regrets it?" Bumbutai narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's ask him in public, why should he care about his face?"

Hai Lanzhu smiled and said, "Then when will you graduate?"

Bumbutai immediately opened his eyes, and mumbled, "Elementary school takes five years, and I only have three years. I will definitely graduate in two years."

Hai Lanzhu was also three years old, but she had already passed the graduation exam. She tried to do the graduation exam questions.If it wasn't for accompanying her sister, she would have graduated and returned home long ago.

Because of this, Bumbutai wanted to take advantage of the royal rejoicing and get out of the days of studying hard as soon as possible.

"If the emperor comes, if there is a chance, I can mention it." Hai Lanzhu patted his sister's head, and comforted her casually: "Anyway, there is no loss if you fail, just wait for you to graduate in two years."

Bumbutai also knew that this was the only way to go, so he sighed helplessly, and said, "It would be even better if I could go back to the prairie. Didn't my brother's letter say that I have stabilized there and are doing well?"

Wu Keshan did gain a firm foothold in the Horqin Grassland, not because of his strong ability, but because of the deterrence of the Ming army, which made Lin Danhan dare not continue to go east and annex the Horqin tribe.

In the face of great strength, under the pressure of Lin Danhan Annei, how could the Horqin Department and the Neikalkha Alliance dare to offend the Ming Empire?

As for what Wu Keshan said about living a good life, it is not false.

In addition to cattle, sheep and fur, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce built woolen mills in Datong and Guangning, and wool could also be sold for money, which added another long-term income to the Mongolian tribes who surrendered to Ming Dynasty.

With the help of the improved textile machinery invented by the Academy of Sciences, as well as wool processing technology, woolen blankets and blankets will become another source of income for the Ming Empire.

There is no way, cotton spinning is the pillar industry of the Ming Empire, and a large number of exquisite cotton textiles are exported, and the output value is not much different from that of tea and porcelain.

But the cotton spinning industry needs cotton, and the raw materials are not so sufficient.Especially when a catastrophe strikes, food must be grown even if it can be grown, and cash crops are pushed to the back.

The wool used in woolen products can only be used to roll felts, which is very crude, or it is just discarded waste.

Now it is not the Mongolian ministries that are able to turn waste into treasure and earn foreign exchange through export, but the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the imperial court that collects business taxes.

But no matter who earns more, at least all parties are satisfied.Only in this way can we ensure long-term and stable production and stable and long-term income.

In fact, there is another company that has also gained, and that is the Academy of Sciences.The Chinese Chamber of Commerce purchased wool spinning machinery, which included patent fees, but the term has not been formally proposed.

Whether it is the machinery dedicated to spinning wool or the cotton spinning machinery that exceeds the Jenny spinning machine, it has become the source of funding for the Academy of Sciences.

Of course, under the authority of the emperor, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, the Maritime Chamber of Commerce and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce jointly monopolized the large-scale production of the cotton spinning and wool spinning industry.

In the view of the emperor, it was too early to formally introduce the Patent Law.The most important thing is that the education level of the citizens of Ming Dynasty did not meet his requirements.

According to the current speed of promoting universal education, it will take at least ten years, maybe 20 years, to satisfy the emperor.

The overall improvement of the national quality is the basis for the long-term prosperity of the empire.Regardless of the fact that the current Ming army is powerful and the country is stable and upward, it was forcibly raised by the emperor's golden finger.

Without Zhu Youxiao, within a few years, the Ming Empire would habitually return to its old path.The emperor knew this very well.

What he changed was of course the historical trend of the Ming Empire, but most of them were hardware.In terms of software, that is, ideology, it is not enough to break through the shackles of feudal tradition.

Although various new policies and various measures to promote advantages and eliminate disadvantages were implemented, they relied more on the supreme imperial power than the voluntary actions of the majority of people.

20 years!The emperor didn't know what the little grassland sister was thinking, but he set a goal for himself.

20 years later, the catastrophe will fall from the peak; 20 years later, almost a generation will grow up; 20 years later, the territory of the Ming Empire will reach a new height...

Shanghai.

It is faster than Guangzhou to expand the business hall, and the scale of construction is also larger. An international trade port has begun to take shape.

Guangzhou is a long-established commercial port, and it has had frequent trade with Southeast Asian countries since the Tang Dynasty.Shanghai is a rising star. It was not until the emperor paid attention to it and established the Maritime Chamber of Commerce here that it began to change with each passing day.

However, thanks to the strong funds of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce and the strong support of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, Shanghai has risen rapidly and has shown the momentum of surpassing Yangzhou, Fuzhou and other old commercial ports.

In fact, Shanghai's geographical conditions are much better than those of Yangzhou and Fuzhou, and it is also close to the Yangtze River, with both river and sea transportation.

"President Sun is polite." With a warm smile on his face, Li Dan said sincerely to Sun Weida, the chairman of the Changjiang Chamber of Commerce: "The newly expanded port will naturally reserve enough berths for your Chamber of Commerce, please rest assured that is."

Shipping on the Yangtze River is related to the transportation of materials for disaster relief.The grain purchased from Nanyang is produced and planted in Mekong Province, and shipped into China in large quantities. The three most important transit ports are Tianjin, Lushun and Shanghai.

Needless to say, in Tianjin, water transportation is gradually declining, and Zhili, Gyeonggi is increasingly relying on seaborne food supplies;
Lushun is the largest ice-free port in Liaodong. The reconstruction of Liaodong, the garrison of the Ming army, and the northward advance all require a lot of material support;

Shanghai is the meeting point of sea and river transportation. Taking the Yangtze River shipping, food and materials can be transported at a faster speed and at a lower cost to Henan, Gansu and Shanxi provinces.

Shipping on the Yellow River also played a role, but the emperor did not have extravagant hopes.Under the influence of the catastrophe, the Yellow River will stop flowing due to drought. Wouldn’t it be worth the candle to spend manpower and material resources to expand the shipping of the Yellow River?

Sun Weida breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Brother Li, for your generosity. In the future, at the wharves along the Yangtze River, the ships of your Chamber of Commerce will receive the best care."

The strength of the Changjiang Chamber of Commerce is also very strong, especially for the mission of delivering disaster relief materials, the emperor will naturally give it great convenience.

Li Dan also saw this, so he was generous.It's not about Sun Weida, nor about worrying about the country and the people, but about satisfying the emperor.
