Chapter 42: Concealing the Sky and Crossing the Sea (1)
Chapter 42: Concealing the World (I)
After talking with Sun Chengzong, Yang Jinghui was happy and was covered in debt and sweat.
As for the special operations of wild boar skin, Yang Jing is not afraid of it now. He has time to solve this problem. The Later Jin Dynasty has been getting those official certificates, seals, and clothing for a long time. It has been used to use "scene from the sky". For use in the pass, they are either confidential or not sure, and are ready to kill one blow. If the wild boar skin enters the pass or a major war occurs, then it will be gone next year. What's more, after Mao Wenlong died, the wild boar skin muster the courage to enter the pass and sacrifice one life. That is to say, unless Mao Wenlong dies immediately, there is no need to worry about this matter. Of course, it is not possible that the wild boar skin is crazy and the dog is in a hurry to jump over the wall.
When Sun Chengzong said that Yang Jing was not anxious, he talked to Sun Chengzong about the matter of the new army. Since he had already figured out this matter thoroughly, he was no longer anxious.
I roughly talked with Sun Chengzong about the organization, training time, training method and tactics of the chariot battalion. It was concluded that, first conduct half a year of training for the new infantry army, master the key points in the new recruit booklet, and withstand the test, it is best to have a practical test. Then select excellent personnel to form a chariot battalion, and there is no need to hurry to build a chariot battalion. The Ministry of Works also has craftsmen in this field. As long as there is money, it will be enough to build as much as you want. The quality is OK. As for the chariot camp in the Beijing camp, Yang Jing and Sun Chengzong both believed that where to go there, there was coolness. At most, select some people worth training and technical experience to come. As for those cannons and guns, these things must be piled up with silver. Without money, nothing can be done. Yang Jing, who has no money, can only watch it.
It’s better to be honest and make some money!
Yang Jing decided to dream of returning to Baidu and check the information, and more precisely, he read some time travel novels and see how the protagonists made a fortune! He came up with a few that he is currently easier to implement.
First of all, I set up a distiller, and it seems reasonable to get out the alcohol. The attractiveness of high wine to outside the pass is quite strong. It is estimated that it can be sold at a good price. Alcohol can be used as a disinfectant. However, the late Ming Dynasty was an era when disasters occurred one day. Every year, I also used grain to make wine for the Mongolians. Yang Jing felt that he was really a little "treasure". If he was an ordinary person or not, he would make money and get some money with this method, that would be an absolute good idea. However, he was the emperor and his identity decided to do this. It was really a bit... How to say that, it was a bit cruel, that was to use a knife to cut the flesh on his body to fill his stomach. It was so disgusting. Although it was disgusting, it was true. Others could do it, but it was not appropriate to do it by themselves. This was second only to selling grain to the enemy.
Yang Jing was almost shot to death. After thinking about it, he would be more practical. He would talk about it after doing it. He would talk about it if he had no food. There was also the matter of building a salt drying field. This is a common method used by many time travelers, and Yang Jing didn't mind using it. In ancient times, salt was boiled, which was inefficient and of poor quality. If he used new technology to dry salt, he would probably all the salt merchants in the south would jump off the building. I don't know how many things would happen. It was probably to instigate the scholar-official elites of the Ming Dynasty to fight with him.
Yang Jing was depressed again. Should he intervene in the muddy waters of the salt industry? If he intervenes, he will probably fight with the salt merchants. The salt merchants will challenge him with the millions of taels of salt tax every year. In this matter, either he will not intervene. Once he intervenes, he will control the salt industry in the country with a thunderous momentum. Then facing the crazy counterattack of the elites. If he makes a slight slack and mistake, he will not be able to recover, at least he will be a great damage to his vitality, plus exhaustion, and loss of salt tax.
Yang Jie thought for a while. Although he had the Jinyiwei in his hand, the Jinyiwei also had a problem of "drifting or not" and was becoming increasingly dispersed. He didn't even notice such a big thing as a wild boar skin entering the customs next year. It can be said that his combat effectiveness has declined significantly.
If they are used to cut salt merchants, I don’t know what the effect will be. It is easy to destroy salt merchants, who will replace them? New salt merchants can guarantee that they will not be "drifted"? At that time, the officials below will almost certainly be absolutely sure, and they will definitely cause salt panic in some places. Maybe they will rebel.
This is really a headache. It is easy to destroy salt merchants by yourself, but you don’t have your own executive team to replace these salt merchants. I guess as soon as the war with salt merchants begins, many officials will be encouraged to make profits. Maybe the whole country will be in chaos, and officials from all over the country will make profits, but they are the ones who are the people’s 1000s. At that time, it is impossible not to bow to the elites.
To accomplish something, you must first have ideas, then formulate steps, then an execution team, then follow the system and steps, and finally succeed.
I have the idea of cutting off the salt merchants and Jinyiwei, but there is no commercial executor. Just cutting off the original ones will not make the salt merchants counterattack, causing the nationwide salt tension, and it will be passive. It is not a good thing to be threatened by the elites. If I want to win the salt merchants with thunder, I still have to have my own executive team. This team includes cutting off the Jinyiwei of the original salt merchants and replacing the original salt merchants' business team. Only in this way can this matter be perfectly completed in a very short time, and before the elites come back to their senses, they will create a fait accompli. They want to object but have no way to start. If they want to take advantage of the chaos to make profits or threaten themselves, they are seeking death.
This matter is very suitable for the "big chess party" to do it, and it is strictly arranged, and it will definitely determine the world in one fell swoop. It is not suitable for the otaku Yang Jing. It is too complicated. This is Yang Jing's enlightenment.
Yang Jingai felt that he would find a business team first, so that people who can operate this matter well will come up with the Jinyiwei, Yang Jingai has not had much idea yet. It seems that he should pay attention to Jinyiwei. Wait until both are ready, it will not be too late to take action.
I still have many things to rely on the Jinyiwei, such as long-distance searching for new crops, such as spying on the news of wild boar skins, and salt merchants, all of which require them to take action. Therefore, I still have to go to the Jinyiwei to take a look. Yang Jing came to this conclusion again.
"Emperor, Your Majesty. It's time to get up." Outside was Wang Chengen's soft call. In the room was Yang Jie lying on the bed and pondering hard. He dreamed about Baidu all night. Yang Jie's forehead was still a little painful now, and he lay on the bed and thought about the salt merchant's questions for a long time. So it was dawn for half a day, and Yang Jie didn't have the intention to get up.
Yang Jie did not get up and was told that there were ministers who would be consulting today, and they were impatient to wait in the Wenhua Palace, so they asked someone to urge them.
"What's the matter? Big companion?"
"Your Majesty, it's time to get up. The ministers have been waiting in Wenhua Hall for a long time." Wang Chengen said softly.
"Ah, the mistake." Yang Jing cursed himself secretly, and told Wang Chengen yesterday that the ministers would come to Wenhua Hall to discuss matters today, discussing the large number of lost official certificates and seals in the Ming Dynasty, and how to "hide the world" of wild boar skins. Since it was not the day of the court meeting, we discussed matters in Wenhua Hall.
He quickly got up again, got dressed and washed up, and prepared to go to the meeting.
February 25.
Wenhua Palace.
The ministers have been waiting for a long time. Last night, the emperor sent a message asking everyone to come to Wenhua Hall today to discuss important matters. However, the sun is getting high and the emperor has not yet gotten up, which makes the ministers very upset.
"The emperor is here..." The eunuch shouted, and the ministers finally breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor finally came, and I don't know what was going on. It was so strange. I was puzzled.
At some point, a huge "sand table" was placed in the middle of Wenhua Hall. The ministers were idle and pointed at the sand table, making a point of guidance. When they heard the emperor's arrival, they immediately came out to stand in line to welcome the emperor.
"Long live my emperor..." The ministers respectfully greeted the emperor and kowtowed.
"Get up, get up." Yang Jie said again: "There is an additional 'sand table' in the hall today, and all my dear friends have seen it. Today's events are also related to this 'sand table deduction'..."
