What is the Li family’s new Korean?

Hu Yi and Gao Gu’s nightly remedy for Bai Minghe is not a waste of time. Bai Minghe’s understanding of New Goryeo was originally based on the history of later generations and some information from the Dongchang. In addition to the documents of the Ministry of Rites on these surrounding small countries, in the eyes of Bai Minghe, New Goryeo is a big cake.

Except for the founding king, the rest of the New Goryeo is full of waste, with many factions and disputes between the powerful and the powerful. It can be described as the founding of the New Goryeo until now. There were two rebellious princes, and one after another, the King of New Goryeo was undermined.

However, Bai Minghe didn't care about these things.

According to records from the Ministry of Rites and the East Factory, New Goryeo had 50,000 Beijing troops and 100,000 standing troops across the country. There were 50,000 navy troops and 500 ships. Forty years ago, they killed the pirates on Tsushima Island in Japan, which was considered to be of some combat power.

The land calculation in New Goryeo is very interesting, not by acre, but by acre.

One grain is the output of twenty stones of grain. New Goryeo currently has about one million and seven million cultivated land. That is to say, the total output of 34 million stones of grain per year. For a small country with a population of 700,000 households, the per capita grain output is as raw material as ten stones. This number is quite good.

The population of Daming is about 85 million. The fields are 12.2 million hectares. In addition to horses, sheep, pigs, etc., in the absence of major natural disasters, the food for people to eat is about 900 kilograms. (This figure is well documented).

In a sense, the per capita grain output of the Ming Dynasty was lower than that of the New Goryeo.

However, New Goryeo has almost no currency, there is not enough side dishes and various daily necessities.

The exchange method mainly uses real goods such as rice, grain, cotton or linen as currency. Foreign trade is monopolized by the state, and the main trading target countries are the Ming Dynasty and Japan, exporting silk, cotton, summer cloth, grain, etc., and importing high-end textiles such as silk, various luxury goods and medicinal materials.

According to the situation of Dongchang, with the rise of King Wenzong in recent years, the grain has dropped by about 30% in large quantities, but this amount is also higher than the per capita output of the Ming Dynasty.

The reason is that there are few people in New Korea. But the ratio of soldiers to civilians is very scary. Just counting the capital army and the navy army, it is 35 to one. If the farmers are counted as soldiers, it is 13 to one. The ratio of civilians to soldiers in the Ming Dynasty has not even reached forty to one. At present, the number of soldiers registered in the Ming Dynasty is no more than two million.

New Goryeo is actually the small peasant economy in the mind of Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

Bai Minghe sat in the carriage without saying a word. His head was thinking about how to drag New Goryeo into the water. It was indeed difficult for such a New Goryeo that was closed to the country to make them their own prey.

The cannonist Baiminghe doesn’t mind, and the Ming navy doesn’t mind. But Yu Qian will get angry, and the entire Ming Dynasty will object, provoking war against Xiaobang for no reason. Not to mention the victory or defeat, morally, Baiminghe cannot cope with the people in the court. So, what about the temptation?

What can you use to seduce sticks?

Shanggaogu and Hu Yi were talking to Gaogu, who were sitting in another carriage. Hu Yi said to Gaogu: "The two generals Fan and Chen know more about Baiminghe. Judging from their conversation, Baiminghe must have something to do with New Goryeo, and it is even a big conspiracy. I once compared Baiminghe's character with the pre-Qin Qizi as a pre-Qin Qizi, and what he learned was not close to the pre-Qin Qizi!"

"Bai's name is He's surname is Bai!" Gao Gu responded.

Hu Yi didn't understand it very much. Gao Gu said, "Wu'an Jun is called a man who kills the gods. But without Wu'an Jun, the Great Qin would be at least a few decades later than the Great Qin unified the world. On the monument of the strong Qin and the unification of the world, if Shang Jun remembers his first merit, then Wu'an Jun would be at least second. He could even be ranked second."

"Bai's name is He's surname is Bai!" Hu Yi repeated this sentence.

Bai Minghe didn't know that the two old guys were talking about themselves, but his thinking was getting into a horn. The base of the sticks was too small, and there were too many soldiers and enough food to eat. They could survive by themselves. How could they pull the sticks into the water? In addition to threats, temptation is a good way. What can be used to tempt?

While thinking, the white-famous crane had already entered the New Goryeo Palace.

King Wenzong was really sick, and he was very sick. It seemed that he would not live long and could die at any time.

Bai Minghe asked the medical officer with great concern, and the medical officers were probably half a year or three months, and they were powerless.

When the Baiming He came to Wenzong's bedroom, he took out not medicinal materials, but a Buddhist scripture. The true Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures are ink, and the signs above show the preciousness. It is not a secret that Wenzong promotes Buddha. A Buddhist scripture is a gift from the Baiming Heir, not a sutra, especially blood as ink.

There are four pearl sets, the best quality, and the set of four Bodhisattva pearls sold at the second-rate quality in the Japanese island.

King Wenzong could no longer speak, but his consciousness was still somewhat. He knew what kind of person was coming, and he also gave him a precious gift. He held Bai Minghe's hand and looked at his son. The meaning was very obvious. This was to let Daming keep his son, and he knew his younger brother's ambitions.

Bai Minghe patted him twice in his hand, which was considered a response.

The one that should have gone through is finished.

"I feel really uncomfortable like King Wenzong. If there is any need, Daming will do his best to help." Bai Minghe said some official words.

Li Jing came to Bai Minghe and said, "Please move the nobles of the Ming Dynasty. Changyang Garden has been cleaned for the nobles to provide rest."

"I'm interested." Bai Minghe nodded slightly.

When I came to the garden prepared for myself, several greetings have been placed on the desk.

Since Bai Minghe said that the banquet was postponed, and said that because King Wenzong was seriously ill, the banquet would be disrespectful, so the banquet was naturally cancelled, but the necessary etiquette must not be missing. Hu Yi and Gao Gu represented Bai Minghe to meet the powerful people of New Goryeo, while Bai Minghe sat in the study, waiting for the secret spies sent by the Dongchang here to report the latest situation.

"Brother-in-law, the people here have a hard time."

Huaiyu came back, and a word aroused Bai Minghe's interest. Bai Minghe stretched out his hand and pulled Huaiyu into his arms: "Girl, what have you seen in the palace of New Goryeo?"

"They invited me to the stage, and then lined up to kowtow to pay my respects. I followed my brother-in-law and kowtow. Everyone came to kowtow and gave me a reward according to their clothing and color level. Each gift was different. Later, I heard from the palace maid who followed me that these women were all pitiful people with disagreement in front of me, and they kept talking strange things to each other."

"Strange words?" Bai Minghe didn't understand the word very well.

"It is to belittle other people in secret, and to compare who gets the precious rewards."

"Women, if you are circling around a man, you will naturally fight. Since ancient times, women in the palace have lived like this." Bai Minghe originally thought that he could hear some interesting news, but it turned out to be just an old-fashioned palace fight. Bai Minghe had no interest in palace fights, and he didn't even have the interest in listening to stories.

Huaiyu smelled it on Bai Minghe: "I heard they want to give you a few women!"

"I haven't heard it!" Bai Minghe's words were not fake, Huai Yu could hear them.

Huaiyu talked about what he saw in the palace for a while. The only thing Bai Minghe could think of was that it would be easier to make money from women in New Goryeo. Various daily supplies may be able to make money here, but this is not enough to affect the change in New Goryeo's pattern, so there is still another way to find it.

After Gao Gu and Hu Yi returned, Huaiyu went to the back room to rest.

Sitting in the study, Gao Gu asked Bai Minghe: "Bai Minghe, what do you want?"

"I need New Goryeo, there are two reasons. One is that they have some minerals we don't have, such as thrush stones." It is impossible for the Baiming He to say nothing anymore, and always have a plan.

Hu Yi and Gao Gu were both amused and crying: "Although there are not many thrush stones in the Ming Dynasty, even if it is more expensive, it will not affect the safety of the court. Is it worth thinking you? Unless it has other uses!" Hu Yi also understood the white-name crane. The white-name crane didn't even care about jewelry, and would care about what women used.

"There is another name called graphite, which can be used to make pencils. But this is also a very small use. The pencil core can be replaced by other things. Graphite has seven uses. At present, there are only two types of things we can use. One is that graphite can withstand high temperatures, the molten iron is already very hot, and even if the temperature is twice as high, graphite can withstand it. The other purpose is to refine steel, which can be used as a protective agent after the steel is melted to prevent impurities from penetrated into the steel."

"Continue!" Hu Yi knew how much steel meant to the Ming Dynasty.

"Graphite is also a high-temperature lubricant, which has a better effect than oil-infused lubrication. If I want to pull steel wire, copper wire, etc. directly, graphite is a necessary product. Another purpose is to make crucibles. Taoists can use this to refine more things, many of which are needed by the Ming Dynasty. For example, glass silver plating, once this technology is successful, there will be countless benefits!"

The white-famous crane touched the two old men.

The Ming Dynasty did not have graphite, but in fact, the reserves were huge, including the three eastern provinces, Shandong and Shanxi. But Shanxi is currently a war zone, and Shandong is the steel industrial base of Baiminghe. In the three eastern provinces, it is better to save money. Whether it is the road or the climate, it is not what Baiminghe wants to pass.

However, the peninsula is different here. The only shortage may be the question of whether the labor force is sufficient.

"I even considered to invade New Goryeo."

"Nothing!" Hu Yi laughed and scolded.
