Chapter 132 Fake newspapers, fake news, votes(1/2)
The situation in the Later Jin Dynasty was bad, some were depressed, some were depressed, some were angry, and some were thinking hard about ways to break the situation.
For example, Huang Taiji had never been beaten up, and he wanted to seek the scriptures from the traitor Fan and attack Jinzhou, or to wait for the Ming army to build a city and advance it, and to have a quick and mobile strike.
The Ming Dynasty capital, thousands of miles away, was not idle, and was reading a newspaper called "Da Ming Forum".
This was not a strange thing at first, but it was indeed very strange. Zhu Youxiao actually held a fake newspaper and looked smiling.
Fake newspapers are fake newspapers, but they are not falsification and robbery, but are created by Zhu Youxiao. For readers, no one would have thought that it was specially prepared for Jiannu.
Zhu Youxiao thought it was very good, so he handed the newspaper to the palace servant and handed it to Luo Sigong.
Luo Sigong took the newspaper and looked at it a few times, his eyes widened. When was the news? He, the leader of the Jinyiwei, didn't know?
When Zhu Youxiao saw Lao Luo's surprise, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Luo Qing doesn't have to take it seriously. That's fake news, just for Jiannu."
Luo Sigong blinked his eyes and finally understood.
His son Luo Yangxing was staring at the Fan family in Shanxi, and the information he passed on was mentioned. The Ming Forum was a source of information obtained by Jiannu.
The emperor compiled a fake newspaper and gave it to Jiannu through the subdued Fan Dafu, the butler of the Fan family, to make a detailed report, so that Jiannu could make a wrong judgment!
"There are two or three periods of vacations in the ten periods, and not a single newspaper is completely fake. There are one or two articles that Jiannu should not notice?" Zhu Youxiao touched his chin, was a little proud, and a little cunningly smiled: "Don't do big news for now, and lead Jiannu a bit by bit."
Luo Sigong was convinced, and he could even think of this trick, which was really hard to detect.
For example, in this newspaper in hand, one of the reports said that the court intends to mobilize elite troops from the nine sides, gather 100,000 troops to Liao to participate in the war, and strive to completely eliminate Jiannu this year and complete the plan to pacify Liao.
This is definitely a major event that makes Jiannu feel heavy pressure and will be fully prepared for it.
As for the current situation of the Later Jin Dynasty, the Ming army's 100,000 reinforcements can be divided into three groups to enter Liaodong. The land routes in western Liaoning, the sea routes in southern Liaoning and the sea routes in Liaodong Pi Island are simply a sturdy attack!
Jiannu would definitely have doubts, and almost all the elites on the nine sides were drawn. The Ming Dynasty did not guard against the Mongolian tribes? But such doubts did not affect Jiannu's preparation and defense.
It is a tradition for the emperors of the Ming Dynasty to issue orders and command randomly. What's so great about going crazy occasionally? Concentrating their strength to destroy powerful enemies first, and then turning back to clean up the mess. There was also such a strategic strategy in history.
"Long live the extraordinary wisdom, the Eastern Captain will definitely be trapped." Luo Sigong bowed and expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart. At least this trick was unexpected.
Zhu Youxiao waved his hand pretentiously and said, "How to do it seamlessly requires careful planning. In addition, there is no need to obtain Jiannu through only one channel."
"I understand." Luo Sigong felt that his thinking had become broader, and bowed and replied, "When I go back, I plan and arrange it, and I will definitely complete the long-term plan."
Zhu Youxiaozhao praised him and asked about something else before Lao Luo retreated.
Hehe, just a few newspapers, the cost is so small, even if it is not successful, it is not a loss.
Zhu Youxiao touched his chin and was still immersed in his creativity. Even if it was a prank, it would be very interesting and happy to scare Jiannu.
As the saying goes, when the world comes, the world works together, and heroes are not free.
Zhu Youxiao felt that after his own efforts and shameless struggles, his fortune had shifted to the Ming Dynasty and would no longer be as unlucky as in history.
Not to mention that Lao Nu and Huang Tai Nu are not heroes, even if they are reluctant to lift them up, they will still be unable to turn over in the hands of the wise and powerful Emperor Tianqi.
When Zhu Youxiao thought of Jiannu flipping through fake newspapers, looking at fake news, and thinking hard about countermeasures, he couldn't help laughing, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Long live the imperial physician Yang Hanyi is waiting for him to see him." The palace servant came inside and reported, interrupting the emperor's pleasure of fantasy.
Zhu Youxiao sat upright and put on the look the emperor should have, so that the palace maid Xuan Moumou entered the palace.
The female doctor Yang Hanyi entered the hall and knelt down to pay homage. A little girl, or a medicine boy, followed her, was also a polite manner.
"No gifts, just keep your body flat." Zhu Youxiao paused for a moment, waved his hand and ordered the palace servants to bring the embroidered dormitory, giving him the kindness of a seat.
The health of several wives was left to Yang Hanyi, and Zhu Youxiao tried his best to treat her as politely as possible. Moreover, he did not have too many feudal ideas of superiority of men and inferiority of women.
"I thank you for your kindness." Yang Hanyi sat down after showing his salute again. The medicine boy blinked his eyes and stood behind her.
This little medicine boy is very interesting. Zhu Youxiao has seen it two or three times and is deeply impressed by the little girl's poker face. She is not ugly, but she seems to be ignorant. She doesn't know what joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness are.
The name is also interesting, namely Taoyan, or Taoyan'er. With that little face without expression, I don't know what she "hate" or "hate" everything.
I asked about the physical condition of several concubines, especially Zhang Yuer, and Zhu Youxiao was even more concerned.
Yang Hanyi responded respectfully one by one, which made Zhu Youxiao very satisfied.
As long as you have no physical problems, whether you can get pregnant is God's will. You are still young, so there is no need to worry about it.
Zhu Youxiaoxue ordered the palace servants to bring a few medical books, all of which were royal books and some were found among the people, but it was difficult to see.
Learn from others' strengths, take the essence, and remove the dross. No matter which industry progresses, it is the same.
Seeing that he had some rash request, the emperor agreed and handled it so happily, and knelt down in surprise and thanked him again.
"No need to be polite." Zhu Youxiao raised his hand and said warmly: "Medical skills can improve and can do good women's medicine is the most gratifying thing for me."
"Yes, I will definitely live up to what I hope." Yang Hanyi still gave the gift before getting up and sitting down.
Zhu Youxiao felt that nothing was wrong and was about to leave when he died, Li Chengcheng hurriedly walked in, stopped at the entrance of the hall and looked at the emperor anxiously.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Youxiao did not blame him. Anyway, this was not a formal summoning minister. Although Li Chengcheng was a little rude, he had heard her reasons before talking about it.
"Your Majesty," Li Chengcheng bowed and hurriedly said, "Xiaobai is going to give birth!"
Zhu Youxiao raised his eyebrows. He was really not familiar with the habits of cats. Besides, this is not his major. Not to mention giving birth to kittens, even giving birth to babies can’t help!
Yang Hanyi really didn't know that Xiaobai was a cat. Seeing the emperor frowned, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Long live, let me go and take a look!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at Yang Hanyi and thought for a moment, and said, "That's hard work for Yang Qing."
Yang Hanyi gave another tribute and then took Li Chengcheng to the warm room with "hate".
Cats should take care of themselves, but I haven’t heard of the cat world having a baby cat!
Although Zhu Youxiao was a little worried, he didn't join in the fun. He had picked up the question book and read it.
Last year, the pilot planting of sweet potatoes in the imperial village was successful. What's more, under the guidance of Xu Guangqi and others, a group of farmers who master planting technology were trained.
Although most of these farmers were illiterate, they still received money and went to various northern regions to become experts.
This year, it will be planted on a larger scale. Next year, the year after tomorrow, Zhu Youxiao calculated that God should give him at least three years. With the output of sweet potatoes, the amount that can be stored is still very large.
Although the problem cannot be fundamentally solved, it is a little bit easier. Cultivating high-yield crops in advance and extensively is definitely the right way.
The key is that Zhu Youxiao did not know very well about the climate change in the Little Ice Age and how big the impact it had on the Ming Dynasty. He could only analyze and estimate based on some information from his previous life.
For example, Sun Chuanting's Qingteng recharges money. Since he can train "Shaanxi soldiers" and accumulate a lot of money and grain. It can be seen that even the worst-hit areas in Shaanxi are not causing disasters every year, and there is no harvest.
After further analysis, Zhu Youxiao came up with an indefinite answer. The so-called natural disasters and man-made disasters, in the late Ming Dynasty, should have been greater than natural disasters, right?
Although the Little Ice Age does have a great impact, several northern provinces have been suffering from disasters one after another, and disasters such as locusts, water, drought and flood have taken turns to occur for decades.
But the main reason why the people rose up and the war broke out was the extra mission of the court.
Although Zhu Youxiao was not very sure, he began to pay attention and tried hard to avoid repeating the same mistakes.
Of course, he had other ways, such as buying grain from overseas, immigrating to Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan, and even expanding to the Southeast Asia to gain living space for the people of the Ming Dynasty.
There are always more solutions than difficulties, and problems that can be solved with money are not real problems.
Zhu Youxiao finished the question book of the Gansu-Shaanxi Governor Zuo Guangdou and exhaled a long breath with emotion.
In fact, from last year to now, many people have reported disasters in various places. Although the area is small and the disaster is not too serious, Zhu Youjiao takes it seriously. Relief is the only way to provide relief and never delays.
In his opinion, this is an exercise in dealing with larger-scale disasters. If you can't handle this, you can imagine how bad the situation will be.
He looked up at the door and saw Li Chengcheng coming back to report. Zhu Youxiao hesitated for a moment, but still did not act rashly.
Whether it is good news or good news, if there is any, Li Chengcheng will definitely come to inform him to make him feel at ease.
This situation now only means that there is no result yet. The same is true if you go there yourself. If you can’t help, it will cause trouble.
Zhu Youxiao forced himself to calm down and took a memorial with special marks, reading it casually.
This is a letter from the Chamber of Commerce. Although the emperor gave him the right, the Chamber of Commerce did not dare to use it easily, for fear that too much writing would make the emperor bored.
Zhu Youxiao saw that it was from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, and he didn't care at first, but as he looked, his expression became solemn.
Reforming the salt method is an idea that Zhu Youxiao had already developed, but he has not yet improved the plan for how to change it. But one thing is that salt is cheaper than boiling salt, and the quantity is greater, and it is certain that it will be eliminated in the end.
Lianghuai is mainly boiled salt, and the salt price is very high, which is called cooked salt; Guangdong is mainly dry salt, which is called raw salt, which is about twice the price than Huai salt.
This is also one of the main reasons why Huaiyan needs to be sold in a district. If the competition is not only for raw salt and the sales scope is not specified, it may be squeezed out by broad salt.
Zhu Youxiao also realized this and sent Dong Yingju to manage and expand the Changlu Salt Factory, and also sent an operator to Rizhao, Shandong to open a factory to dry salt.
These two measures are to replace Huai Yan. Zhu Youxiao is also preparing to change the nationality of the salt households, the hereditary occupation and class division.
Increasing the production of raw salt, ultimately replacing cooked salt, and then producing refined salt, is already the development route planned by Zhu Youxiao.
The disadvantages of the outline also made Zhu Youxiao believe that the salt law also needs to be reformed. But he has not thought about how to change it completely.
The memorial of Xia Zhongshi, sent by Tang Mo, president of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, brought Zhu Youxiao a breakthrough in his thinking.
In his book, Xia Zhongshi proposed his innovative thinking on salt method. In general, he changed the "outline salt system" to "tip salt system".
According to the "salt salt system" in the middle of the summer, the salt induction was abolished, the hereditary monopoly of salt merchants was broken, and the bank ticket was switched to.
To put it bluntly, no matter whether you are a salt merchant or not, if you want to do a salt business, you can go to the salt factory to buy salt. After paying enough salt, you can get the ticket to transport salt.
Zhu Youxiao lowered his eyes and thought about the possibility of implementing the "Salt Law" and the areas where it is not yet perfect.
In his opinion, the Salt Law most said that he wanted to abolish the monopoly of salt inducement and stimulants over salt inducement, which basically eliminated the layers of exploitation of officials.
At the same time, the implementation of the "Salt Law" can also suppress salt prices and benefit the people, but it does not reduce the income from the court's salt tax, which in turn can increase national tax revenue.
