Zhu Cixi still has a little understanding of the nature of capitalism. To be honest, it is not quite accurate to call this doctrine capitalism, but it is more accurate to call it loss-making. This is because most people have dreams of getting rich and join the torrent of capitalism to start a business.

People will lose everything in the end... There are only a very small number of successful people who can truly develop and maintain a considerable family fortune to their descendants!

As for the problem of losing money, there are of course many reasons that can be found. The society is dark (capitalism is of course dark), people's hearts are not as old as they used to be (Emperor Zhu now engages in capitalism in ancient times, and there are many people who lose everything), and there are also

Competitors are cheating (Zhu Cixiang is cheating) and so on.

But one thing must be admitted, if you lose, you are wrong!

If someone loses all his money, it means that this person should not start a business. It is wrong for him to start a business and do business!

Because entrepreneurial success is only a small probability event, and even a relatively successful company has a high probability of failing in the not too long period of time.

From a probability perspective, most capitalists' investment and management decisions are also wrong.

Therefore, Zhu Cihong, who is well aware of the true meaning of loss-making and the fierce competition in the market, does not want to follow his heroes who have overcome difficulties and join the market (the same is true for starting a farm). Because of the result of these professional households who were officials or laid off people and switched to business,

Most of it is a loss of money!

At the same time, Emperor Zhu was not willing to invest money in feudal government-run industry and commerce because he knew that if those feudal bureaucrats did not become officials and became capitalists, they would probably lose everything. Therefore, he did not expect them to make money when doing business for the court.

....Except for projects that have to invest money, Emperor Zhu will not invest in them.

Of course, it is only the feudal bureaucrats who cannot do business, not other officials. The feudal ones are very backward, and of course they cannot use capitalism...

Therefore, the capitalist route that Zhu Cixi is taking now is basically the "deficitism" of freedom that was developed in the early barbaric period, that is, first using personal money to create a capitalist system!

Because he was worried about Wu Xiang, Wu Sanfu invested randomly and lost all the money he had worked so hard to earn. On the way back to Liaocheng, Zhu Cixiang recommended Wu Sanmei to invest in Tianjin Prefecture - although it was not as good as Shanghai and Nanjing, it was definitely better than those outside the customs.

The farm is much more reliable.

Just when Zhu Cixiang and Wu Sanmei finished their fruitless private visit in private and returned to the heavily guarded Liaocheng Castle, Generalissimo's Military Advisor Wu Sanfu and Jin Yiwei Commander Zhu Chunjie were already in the Liaocheng Palace with two pieces of bad news they had just received.

Waiting anxiously.

"Your Majesty, the bandits are making big moves again!"

"Your Majesty, the Jin Yiwei received information that Li Guo had moved to Kunming. He also appointed Li Dingguo, the puppet king of Jin, as the general to conquer the south. He also recruited government troops in Sichuan and Yunnan to prepare for the second expedition to Siam."

"But spies from the Hexi Jiedushi Division reported that the Hanzhong Prefecture and Zhechong Prefecture in parts of Gongchang Prefecture, which were ruled by rogue bandits, were heavily recruiting troops! Moreover, the rogue bandits also attacked the Wudushan Granary in Hanzhong and the Qiuchishan Granary in Gongchang in large numbers.

Transporting grain and fodder... seems to be attacking Guanlong!"

Li Guo once again used the strategy of claiming south and conquering the north to fool the spies of Jinyiwei - due to the Dashun Dynasty's policy of suppressing business and promoting official business in industry and commerce, it was very difficult for Jinyiwei to penetrate the Dashun territory, and it was very difficult for the Jinyiwei to penetrate the territory.

It's also easy to tease them on the cis side.

However, because Wu Sangui has been operating in Shaanxi for a long time, he has sent a large number of spies to Hanzhong and Gongchang Prefectures. Moreover, these spies and spies were recruited from northern Shaanxi. Many people have sneaked into Zhechong Prefecture of Hanzhong and Gongchang.

He became a soldier. Therefore, the news they sent about the gathering of soldiers from the two places and the transportation of grain to Wudu Mountain and Qiuchi Mountain was extremely accurate.

"Last time, we attacked the north and attacked the south. This time, we should attack the south and attack the north, right?" Zhu Cixiang paced in the study room of the palace, "You really know how to choose the time!"

"Your Majesty," Wu Sanfu said, "the imperial court now has thirty divisions, ten divisions have been prepared for the Battle of Pingliao, one division is used in Japan, one division is used in Siam, and eight divisions are used for defense along the coast and along the river.

Divisions, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Huguang have also deployed five divisions to defend against the river-blocking bandits... The remaining five divisions can be used in Gansu and Shaanxi. If not, two or three divisions can be deployed to defend the coastal areas, and Hexi can also be mobilized.

The vassal army.

In addition, the Heshuote Khanate in Tibet is willing to surrender...the Sichuan border army stationed in Qinghai can also be used in Gansu and Shaanxi."

Fortunately, Kong Tingxun's battle with the Kashote Khanate in Qinghai dragged on for a long time. The situation was not very favorable at the beginning, but by the middle of the ninth year of Hongxing's reign, the 74-year-old Gu Shi

Khan died of illness in Lhasa, and Dayan Eqil, the eldest son of Gushi Khan who was presiding over the war in Qinghai, had to return to Lhasa and ascend the throne. Dayan Eqil did not go to Lhasa alone, but took a large army with him. So it is gratifying.

, Kong Tingxun soon gained the upper hand in the Qinghai battlefield, and the troops of the Khoshote Khanate were retreating steadily. Now they have all withdrawn to Tibet.

And the armies of Shang and Kong were unable to go to the snowy plateau to fight the Mongols, so the battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Heshuote Khanate was transferred to the negotiation table.

Dayan Eqil Khan agreed to become a vassal, but asked for the status of a vassal state. However, Zhu Cixiang did not agree to sign a "vassal treaty" with the Kashote Khanate. Instead, he wanted to restore the Xuanzhengyuan in Tibet and let Dayan Eqil take the post.

The Xuanzhengyuan envoy. The power and status of the Xuanzangyuan are similar to those of the Ming Dynasty vassals, that is, they are government offices similar to the Jiedu Envoys and the Duhufu.

Because there is a large gap between the asking prices of both parties, a result cannot be negotiated for the time being.

However, the negotiations were fruitless, and Shang and Kong's Sichuan border troops could only continue to stay in Qinghai.

"The troops on the Sichuan border will not move!" Zhu Cihong said, "Let Sangui lead the Hexi army to assist Gongchang and Fengxiang, and then transfer three divisions of new troops to him."

"Is it too few?" Wu Sanfu said, "The Hexi Army is not large in number. It would be good to mobilize 10,000 people. Two divisions only have more than 30,000 people...even if we include the supervision of the Shaanxi Admiral.

And the troops and horses of the provinces, prefectures and prefectures, that is, more than 50,000 people."

Nowadays, each province directly under the Ming Dynasty has an admiral. The admiral has a supervisor under his jurisdiction, that is, several thousand troops. He is mainly responsible for suppressing local bandits and garrisoning important cities and passes. In principle, the supervisor cannot go out of the province to fight.

The governors of each province, the prefects of each prefecture, and the prefects of Zhili prefectures no longer have their own troops. The military power at hand is only a battalion of guards. This small amount of troops can only protect themselves and the safety of the city they are stationed in. In principle

You can't leave the provincial capital, prefectural city, or prefectural city.

"Fifty thousand is not enough?" Zhu Cixiang smiled, "I don't expect Sangui to invade the territory of the bandits. As long as we can block the bandits in Zhongnan Mountain and Qishan Mountain, it will be enough... just like Sima Yi resisted Zhuge Liang in the past.

Just the same! Just choke the rogue bandits and use them to consume military rations until they run out of food and return."

"Is this enough?" Wu Sanfu asked, "Your Majesty, the rogue bandits relied on the mountain dangers to resist the king's army. Now they have come to our door for us to deal with. Shouldn't we seize the opportunity to annihilate them?"

"No need!" Zhu Cixiang waved his hand, "Just stop them... They are no longer rogue bandits, but sitting bandits who have given birth to a lot of children! So their march north this time is destined to not be a big deal. As for

There is no need to annihilate them. Would Li Guo care if tens of thousands of soldiers died? If tens of thousands died, his burden might be lighter!"

"Your Majesty, what you mean is..."

Zhu Cixiang said: "I don't want to kill many bandits, I want them to suffer losses! It's not that the bandits can't afford to die, but they can't afford to suffer losses! It will cost a lot of money for us to send 50,000 troops, and it will also cost a lot to send out large soldiers for the bandits...

The expense is not on the puppet imperial court of the rogue bandits, but on the soldiers of the rogue bandits.

Today's rogue bandits have long taken root in Sichuan and Yunnan, and they are all veteran soldiers with families and businesses. It is impossible to kill the old ones and the young ones. It is better to block them and let them
