People’s hearts can be used, morale can be used; money and food can also be supported.

Once the most difficult financial problem, it has now been greatly alleviated.

In addition to bank coins, exchanges, increase in commercial taxes, income from the Maritime Bureau, profits from the mirror, etc., it also played a great role in the confiscation of all property by corrupt officials.

Over the past two years, I have no idea how many officials have been severely punished and severely punished, and have been exiled to remote areas along with their families. Money, houses, and fields have all become money and grain, and have been invested in the anti-rebellion wars in Liaodong and southwest.

It’s not that Zhu Youxiao is merciless. The Ming Dynasty’s internal and external troubles have become castles in the air. These big rats and worms still don’t know how to restrain themselves. What’s the purpose?

From the court to the local government, the scrutiny did not stop, or even showed signs of weakening. The Censorate was the main force, and the factory guards were secretly investigating the investigation, providing clues, and taking down officials one by one.

With the expansion of the "Imperial Party" power, whether it is a new official or an old official who has changed his mind, he grasped the emperor's mind and pushed the purge into depth.

Not only officials, but also evil gentry, landlords and businessmen, are also constantly expanding their attacks and are severely punished and severely punished.

Wei Guangwei worked very hard as the governor of Jiangsu, and the emperor also received commendations. No matter how cruel and cunning Wei Guangwei was evaluated in history, as long as he was not greedy and did his best to do his best, the emperor would still use it very smoothly.

Of course, the warning is certain. Wei Guangwei is also knowledgeable and tactful. He does not take money seriously, but only focuses on long live satisfaction and is promoted to the title.

The word "right" is more appropriate to separate. It requires both power and profit. What good things are all in your family?

Wei Guangwei was a smart person. He knew that the emperor did not rub sand in his eyes, and power and profit were just fish and bear's paws, and he could not have both.

Another smart man was Ni Wenhuan, who replaced Wei Guangwei and became the official pen. This guy was with Wei Guangwei. He figured out the emperor's thoughts and wrote the articles that were very consistent with the holy intentions, so he would be sent to the governor of Zhejiang.

The two governors of Jiangsu and Zhejiang started with the newspapers, which were the emperor's mouthpieces, and Wei Guangwei and Ni Wenhuan were also the emperor's trusted ministers.

How could Wei and Ni not know Zhu Youxiao’s impression of officials and gentry in Jiangnan? It is precisely because they know the holy intention that they can dominate the local government and rise to the top.

Many people have seen the emperor's dissatisfaction with the officials and gentry of Jiangnan through the actions of the emperor in the past two years. The appointment of trusted ministers to rule Jiangnan can also guess that it was the beginning of the crackdown on the officials and gentry of Jiangnan.

So what if I know, I am too lazy to do anything wrong. I just don’t like you, so I won’t pretend!

Zhu Youxiao did not have many advices, but just warned Ni Wenhuan not to be greedy and illegal, so he asked him to resign.

Having written so many articles for me, how can I not know what I think? With these two people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, will the officials and gentry in Jiangnan live a "good life"?

Zhu Youxiao leaned into the imperial chair, narrowed his eyes slightly, and enjoyed the palace maid's suffocation. It seemed to be enjoying it, but his mind was filled with thoughts.

Whether it is the party struggle or corrupt officials, the gentry who is fictitious and leaky, or the merchants who evade taxes, don’t they know the reason why the skin is gone and where will the hair be attached?

If the country is unstable, even wars or perish, can they still have a good life?

Why do we still erode the national financial resources and fill our personal pockets? Why do we ignore the overall situation and only think about personal interests?

Thinking about Li Zicheng was about to reach the city of Beijing, the noble officials were still guarding their own wealth and refused to spend money to defend their country.

Zhu Youxiao could make up his mind and not feel sorry for those bastards who were confiscated and exiled.

As for the industry and commerce of the Ming Dynasty, they would not be hit or even stagnant because of the increase in commercial taxes and severely punishing some profiteers.

In Zhu Youxiao's view, a strong country, a stable world, and a fair environment are the fertile soil for the safe development of industry and commerce.

The search for homes and exile was just a temporary means for Zhu Youxiao to purify the officialdom and make quick money. Developing industry and commerce is the fundamental reason for the long-term stability of the national finance.

That's right, Zhu Youxiao did not regard the land tax that the Ming Dynasty relied heavily on as its main income. Although it has not been reduced for the time being, it is also due to the war.

When the anti-rebellion war is victorious, the tax on land will definitely decline to a very low level. This is not only a measure to survive the Little Ice Age without causing chaos in the people, but also in line with the objective laws of the operation of human society.

The development of agricultural countries into industrial countries is the correct and scientific development path. On this point, Zhu Youxiao is clearer than anyone else and sure about it.

But without steel and cement, what kind of industrial society is it? Is it good that I haven’t even stepped into the threshold?

As he stepped on the threshold, the emperor gently stroked his forehead, thinking that the madmen of the Academy of Sciences still didn't know that they could be researched in the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month, so he still had to shine his golden fingers again!

………………………………………

In an agricultural society, the emperor wanted to go further and move towards an industrial society.

But for some people, they are extremely surprised when they see the level of civilization in the farming society.

Moreover, this is not the first time that Hai Lanzhu and Bumubutai were shocked incredibly.

The boundless and magnificent sea made the sisters feel their own insignificance. I used to think that the grassland was already vast, but compared with the sea, it could not be compared with each other.

Of course, the two sisters and Darhan were also injured. Especially Bumubutai, they vomited so much that their bile came out. On the contrary, Hailanzhu, which seemed weak, had ginger assistance, but seasickness was much lighter.

After finally landing in Tianjin, the three of them took the documents given by the government when they entered the pass, and then they took two days off before hiring a car to go to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

With the rise of short-distance shipping, Tianjin became the largest overseas port in Beizhili. Merchants had a keen sense of smell and set up shops and warehouses here, especially the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

This greatly promoted the development of Tianjin. Although its prosperity is not as good as the capital and the famous cities in Jiangnan, it has already dazzled the three of them like countrymen entering the city.

"There are so many people in the Ming Dynasty!" Bumubutai didn't know how to describe it. The population density of the prairie is often vague for hundreds of miles, and this is what impressed her the most at first.

"The people of the Ming Dynasty wore clothes made of cloth and silk." After sighing that they were densely populated, Bumubutai also thought that the people of the Ming Dynasty were very rich. On the grassland, let alone silk, even cotton cloth was rare.

"It seems that every family has an iron pot-"

“They often drink tea—”

The Ming Dynasty was so rich. Only nobles could enjoy the precious things on the grassland. They were ordinary things for ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty.

Compared with Tianjin, Grejuergen City in Korchin is like a small courtyard and a large mansion. I heard that the capital of the Ming Dynasty is much larger than that of Tianjin!

Bumubutai stopped muttering, she just wondered why the Korqin tribe had to be enemies with such a large empire and form an alliance with the Later Jin Dynasty.

What was the head of the leader Oba? Didn’t my father, as Zaisang, know how to persuade him? If it weren’t for angering Mingguo, how could he be destroyed and destroyed?

Hai Lanzhu didn't talk so much, most of the time she just observed quietly and listened quietly.

On the way, she learned some Chinese with Darhan, and was captured by the Mongols when she was young. She obtained the official documents and seemed to have been confused.

Of course she didn't know that the Ming court was not very worried about the spy's infiltration, but was easy to get in and difficult to get out, so she did not give the spy a chance to report back.

Not speaking does not mean that Hai Lanzhu is shocked in her heart. She and Bumu Butai also have the same doubts. The huge empire has a large population and is wearing cloth clothes and drinking tea with iron pots. Why are they defeated by the Later Jin Dynasty repeatedly in Liaodong?

Even Darhan could not answer this question accurately. After all, he was just a frequent visit to Ma City. He had a little understanding of the Ming Dynasty from others, which could only be considered a superficial impression.

"I am afraid I can't go back to the grassland when I come to the Ming Dynasty." Daerhan sighed more than once. This is the truth. Maybe even if they leaked their identities, they would become members of the prisoner ceremony and beheaded and displayed in public!

"You can leave when you arrive in the capital of Daming!" Hai Lanzhu told Daerhan more than once that her expression was not like a fake, and her age and experience would not be fake either.

In response, Darhan just smiled bitterly and did not give a clear answer. But he changed the gold and silver he carried with him into silver coins many times, divided into three bags, each with it.

The future is bleak and unknown, which makes the three of them say less and less, but they can only move forward. This is the helplessness of being born into human beings!

It was not until the inn was resting on the road that an acquaintance came over to say hello that the three of them had to cheer up.

"You are so slow!" It was the middle-aged man who was walking outside Tuanshan Fort who was still as enthusiastic and generous as ever.

Daerhan hurriedly bowed and pushed out his smile and explained: "It's Xiaotai who was seasick. We rested in Tianjin for two days. Unexpectedly, we met again. What a coincidence!"

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "I originally agreed to go to the capital together, but I didn't expect that taking a boat was different. I still responded to the test. This is God's will."

"Yes, yes, God's will!" Darhan reached out and asked, "Please sit, please sit, eat together."

The middle-aged man was not polite, so he sat down and said, "The government has given the resettlement silver. It is enough to go to the capital. Someone is here to invite him."

Daerhan hurriedly scrambled and said, "I'll have to take care of you on the road, so how can I get you to pay for it."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "I met an acquaintance in Tianjin. I know that my relatives and friends in the capital are safe. I'm afraid you don't know what will happen in the future, so don't fight with me."

Daerhan hurriedly expressed his gratitude, not too polite.

"Although this meal is average, it is much better than in Liaodong and the grasslands." The middle-aged man ordered two more dishes, ordered a pot of wine, and chatted with Daerhan while drinking.

"That's, that's it." Dahlhan didn't think much of anything else, but this wine was much cheaper than on the horse market, and it was even rare to drink on the grassland.

Bumu Butai secretly complained that a plate of vegetables is just a few pieces of meat, all of which are vegetables, so it is not as generous as eating meat on the grassland.

Hailanzhu is quite delicious. There are a lot of fruits and vegetables on the grassland, and the ones picked are all wild vegetables, and the taste they make is not as delicious as here.

"When I arrived in the capital, the dishes in the restaurant became even more delicious." The middle-aged man stopped his movements, as if he was savoring, and then smiled bitterly, "It's been more than ten years, but I didn't expect to return to my hometown and see my relatives..."

When I arrived in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, I wonder if I could see my father, mother and brother? Should I die with my relatives or would there be another turning point? That Nuke might be able to help me, right?

Hai Lanzhu also stopped, but what she thought of was something else.

…………………………………

This is the Ming Dynasty, with a territory of thousands of miles and a population of hundreds of millions of people, and that prosperity is so prosperous...

Nuke had just entered the towering capital city, the tall walls, spacious gates, pedestrians, flat roads... and his poor words couldn't find a suitable description.

He swallowed hard, and he felt that he could not be too rude. After all, he was the son of the leader of the Zarut tribe, the leader of the future Zarut tribe, or the invitation issued by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, and he was a guest!

Although his self-comfort made him feel a little better, he was still confused. He couldn't say that he felt ashamed of himself, and he also felt a little inferior.

Look at what others wear, cotton, silk, and only nobles on the grasslands; look at what others live in...

One feature of the economy in the Ming Dynasty was the prosperity of urban economy. For example, along the canal, due to the constant merchant ships, surrounding cities such as Jining, Huai'an, and Yangzhou were all very developed and prosperous.

When the Ming Dynasty was just founded, Beijing, the former capital of the yen capital, had only more than 14,000 households. More than a hundred years later, during the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty, Beijing was already "increasingly growing and full of goods."

At this time, the traditional urban areas could no longer accommodate the population, and could only expand outward one after another, which is the so-called "outer city".

Since then, the "outer city" has always been a settlement for foreign merchants and civilians in the capital, and a large number of commercial stores have also sprung up.

During the Jiajing period, the permanent population of Beijing had exceeded one million, and during the Tianqi period, it exceeded one million.

The population density alone is indeed enough to shock visitors from the vast and sparsely populated areas of the grassland.
