I am the king of the dead

Chapter 946 Confucian classics of 66 cars

Wang Fu waved his hand to signal everyone to come back, and the counselors have been opposing it, which is not surprising. Even among the Wala people, there are a large number of people who are not interested in rebuilding the glory of the Great Yuan. Did not get widespread support, but Kang Guogong has been widely supported in Kang Guo.

"God have mercy on Fu'an."

The counselors put their left hands on their shoulders, bent over to salute, and sat down after speaking sincerely.

Wang Fu opened another discussion post and said: "From the year before last to the end of December last year, all households have been compiled and registered. There are 270 million households in the two thirteen prefectures at home and abroad, and 42 million households in Dingkou. More than 310 stones of tax, 25 barrels of fruit wine, 420 cattle, 16 sheep, 400 horses, 140 war horses, More than 12 jin of silk cotton wool, [-] jin of gold, [-] jin of silver, [-] jin of precious stones, and [-] jin of copper, iron, lead, and cinnabar."

There are 200 million households with 1000 million people, and the official gift alone exceeds 300 million shi, and there are countless other objects, and cattle, sheep, horses, and fruit wine are important goods for the Ming trade. results.

"God has mercy on you!" An unknown counselor stood up and shouted loudly, which aroused everyone's support. This incredible achievement was watched by them, little by little, from scratch.

Is it the indescribable true god who brought these?Changshengtian brought these?
It was Kang Guogong who brought these.

In fact, Wang Fu was not very satisfied with these figures. Taking Daming as an example, except for livestock, taxes were lower than those in Shaanxi.

In December of the 11th year of Jingtai, the Ministry of Household reported that there were only 470 stones in the Zhengfu of the Ming Dynasty. In terms of Zhengfu alone, the Ming Dynasty was equivalent to the Zhengfu of eighteen Kang Kingdoms. There are and only regular taxes in the state of Kang, but the major revenues of the Daming state are the Chaoguan Shipbuilding Department, Guanchang, and Baoyuan Bureau, with a total of more than 230 million silver.

The Zhengfu of the 11th year of Jingtai in the Ming Dynasty is only three stones less than the Zhengfu of the first year of Yongle. In other words, Jingtai has just returned to the standard of the first year of Yongle in terms of Zhengfu.

If converted by the price of grain in the south of the Yangtze River, the annual income of Daming's national treasury and internal treasury is roughly equal to fifty Kang countries. Kang's vast area is roughly equivalent to the size of two Shaanxis.

Wang Fu didn't think he had done a good job, but everyone on the ground in Kang country, where have they seen so much grain and grass piled up in the warehouse?

"Two Daos and thirteen prefectures have two university halls, thirteen prefectural schools, and 260 seven prefectural and county schools. This year, there are more than 4 elementary school students, and there are [-] Confucian students in the university halls. This is The merits of promoting culture and education..." Wang Fu was explaining the number of students studying to the counselors. It is worth noting that these students are only men and no women. If you are a wealthy family, you can imitate them and create a family school. Ordinary people, let alone women, Even men can't read books.

There was another cry of God's pity and happiness. Compared with the tens of millions of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, this number was insignificant at all, but to Kang Guo, it was a major event that opened up the world.

Wang Fu knocked on the copper tripod on the table and continued: "This year's Jinfangwu chapter... is our Kang Kingdom, one of the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty. Thanks to His Majesty for not giving up, I have given you an imperial edict. Offer some goods, 50 shi of rice and beams, [-] cattle, sheep, and horses each, [-] war horses, and [-] silver, in order to pay homage to the sacred teachings and rest the soldiers to calm the people. This is the list of gifts, please see."

"It's the tribute, right?" Boyan Timur asked suspiciously.

Wang Fu shook his head and said: "This is a tribute. It is different from the previous tribute. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty probably would not reward it. If it is not offered, Daming will retreat with soldiers, and our fruit wine will have no place to sell. Compared with the price of fruit wine These contributions are not worth mentioning."

In the tributary system, in the past, the Great Ming Dynasty would redouble its rewards, but in the Tai'an Palace of the Great Ming Dynasty today, the lamps only have one wick.

"Emperor Ming didn't like this little thing we donated. I don't think it's wrong to offer it to show respect." Boyan Timur understood the meaning and agreed with Wang Fu.

As soon as Damingluntai City was locked, the largest market for fruit wine disappeared without a trace, and the financial affairs of Kang Guo, which was almost equivalent to nothing, would collapse immediately, and the meat eaters like them would suffer the most.

Contribute?Just high taxes.

Of course Daming doesn't like this kind of wealth right now, but if things go on like this, Kang Guo will sooner or later become like Daming.

Shaanxi, Gansu, the Western Regions, Kang, these impoverished places are really dispensable to the money of the Ming Dynasty, but are these places dispensable to the Ming Dynasty?
Taxation is one of sovereignty. The ownership of these places directly affects the national security in the northwest of Daming. Even if it is a loss-making business, Daming has to do it.

"If you have any objections, you can ask questions." Seeing that the three counselors did not object, Wang Fu began to ask the counselors for their opinions. After nearly half an hour of deliberation, Wang Fu finally dropped the hammer and passed the proposal. The subject of devotion.

Wang Fu announced that he would resume the discussion after a quarter of an hour's break, then unscrewed the teacup, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and continued to deal with the discussion paper in his hand.

"He Huo Teqin, you see that Duke Kang is alone. This Wang Yongzhen is also six years old, but Duke Kang has only one son under his knees. I wonder if I should give Duke Kang some concubines?" Taking a break, Boyan Timur found Ashina Hehuo.

Ashinahehuo thought for a while, nodded and said: "I have no objection, but does Kang Guogong agree?"

Boyan Timur said in a low voice: "In case Wang Yongzhen, the son of the Duke, made any mistakes in Daming, would it be possible to invite the other two sons of Duke Kang to come over to succeed him? Right."

"I think so too." Gegan Taiji said with certainty, "I have a daughter who is sixteen years old."

He Shuo shuddered suddenly and said, "Gongtai Ji, your daughter is five big and three thick, her waist is wider than her shoulders, it's hard to say kiss, you still want her to serve Kang Guogong?"

Boyan Timur laughed in a muffled voice, and He Shuo spoke too directly, which made Guqian feel angry, Boyan continued: "Let's, don't put people around Kang Guogong, save people Let’s say that one favors the other, so we choose from the folks based on appearance and character, isn’t that what Daming did? How about it?”

"I think it's okay." Gegantaiji nodded. Ashinayi is the wife of the country, the eldest lady, and she had to marry in order to appease the sins committed by Yexian's second son Ah Shitaiji. It's better for people to go to Kang Guogong's pillow.

"How many to choose?" He Shuo asked suspiciously.

Ashinahehuo thought for a while and said, "Seventy-two."

Boyan Timur nodded and said, "Success, then I'll go and talk to Duke Kang about it."

The matter of the Western Expedition finally came to nothing, and Wang Fu started a new busy schedule. Instead of waiting for Ashinayi to return to Kang, he waited for Ivan III.

Ivan III Vasilyevich, the beginning of the European nightmare, the future Grand Duke of the Principality of Rus, known as the monarch of all Russia, the first tsar, the builder of the Kremlin, and the founder of Tsarist Russia. At this time, Ivan III wants to return He went to Moscow to inherit his position as Grand Duke, and has returned from studying in the Ming Dynasty.

Ivan saluted very respectfully, bowed his head and said: "Honorable and noble Lord Kang Guogong of the Ming Dynasty, I was very lucky to return to Kangding again and did not see the battle between Kang Guo and Ross Principality. Fortunately, it did not happen, otherwise My way back has also become less smooth."

"Have you found the answers you were looking for?" Wang Fu asked with a smile. Back then, Ivan III went eastward with confusion. After such a long time, Ivan still spoke the same way, but from Latin The language has become Chinese, and the characters are correct and round, in Daming.

Ivan III said slightly melancholy: "Da Ming's prosperity and strength are deeply memorable, and Da Ming's kindness and determination are hard to forget. If it wasn't because I wanted to go back to inherit the position of Grand Duke, if it wasn't for the fact that I took it with me the day I was born. Obligation, I hope to stay in Daming forever."

"I have always been proud of my identity. The moment I bid farewell to the supreme emperor of Ming Dynasty, I felt the distress of identity for the first time."

"Da Ming has taught me a lot. Since I have enjoyed the glory and protection brought by my parents, I should fulfill the obligations my identity entrusts to me."

"The time in Daming is so short, I have no way to complete this spiritual baptism in such a short time, but fortunately, before leaving, His Majesty, the supreme emperor of Ming Dynasty, bestowed on me the most precious thing in the world. Wealth, that is books, I brought 66 cars of books, and after returning to Moscow, I can continue to bathe in the shining of splendid civilization.”

The thumb of Wang Fu's right hand was groping slightly on the second joint of his index finger. If Ashinayi was here, he would know that it was her husband's hesitation before planning to make a move. Wang Fu looked as usual and said with a smile: " You are now a real nobleman."

Regarding the affairs of the Western Regions, Wang Fu had a clearer understanding. After Ivan III returned to Moscow and succeeded the Grand Duke, it was a certainty that the Principality of Moscow would become independent from the Golden Horde and become a country with a common understanding. The Duchy of Ross has completed the preconditions of nation building.

If you have the Principality of Ross with Ivan III, it will only become stronger.

However, after Wang Fu hesitated for a while, he finally gave up the idea of ​​fighting. Both the Taixi bandits and the Ottoman Kingdom needed a strong opponent.

The strength of the Principality of Ross does not lie in whether there is another Ivan III. On the contrary, the 66 books that Ivan III brought back will increase Ming's influence on the entire world.

It's just that the 66 books are all Confucian classics.

After Wang Fu learned that they were all Confucian classics, he couldn’t laugh or cry. For Ming Dynasty, Confucian classics have become resistance. For Ross Principality, they can be used, but they are definitely not easy to use. The Principality of Ross may have to take a lot of detours.

Ivan III would not follow the scriptures, because he had really been a foreign student in Daming for three years, and he thought very seriously and observed Daming's every move.

Ivan III left a travel note in Daming, which is what he saw and heard along the way. Compared with Ming's cultural heritage, the Principality of Ross seems weak. That travel note is one of the few gifts he can give.

He also left a promise that if His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince of Daming returns with Roman Lightning, the Principality of Ross can provide some help. Ivan III swore the promise on their family's honor, but Daming didn't care.

Wang Fu chatted with Ivan III for a long time, and then sent Ivan III out of the Kang Palace. The Grand Duke of the Ross Principality is not in good health, and the Ross Principality needs Ivan to go back and inherit the Grand Duke's position.

Wang Fu leaned on the back of the soft bamboo rattan chair and looked at the dome. He felt very strange, and his reaction to the obstruction of the Western Expedition was too flat, so flat that Wang Fu suspected that he was planning to do something first.

He stood up and brought three pier-shaped Yuanhous to the Lan Palace. After reporting, Wang Fu saw Kang Guo Dashi, whom he hadn't seen for two years.

He also sat on the bench by the patio first, and before Wang Fu could see the ceremony, he stood up on crutches and said with a smile, "You don't need to be too polite, just sit down."

Yexian and Wang Fu did not break up. In terms of official affairs, Yexian was Dashi first, and Wang Fu was Kang Guogong and the counselor. All the proposals for the hammer drop in the council hall would be sent to Yexian to be printed and issued in private. In love, Ye Xian and Wang Fu are half-brothers, and Ye Xian gave Wang Fu a golden knife and a pair of gold cups as tokens between An and Da.

He also took Wang Fu's hand first, sized him up carefully, and said with feigned anger: "I'm so old, you're still so young, but it's good to be young, more children, more blessings, Boyan said he would find you 72 A concubine, you said that the Duke’s wife is not here, so you have to wait for Ashinayi to come back."

"You promised, then it's settled. When the Duke's wife comes back, she will take care of it and fulfill my wish. You can't follow me. After Bo Luotaiji's death, there will be no successors."

Yexian's attitude is very obvious, Wang Yongzhen can be the son of the Duke, but Wang Fu's two sons in Daming cannot be the son of the Duke.

When Wang Yongzhen was sent to Daming, Wang Fu had to take concubines and have more children to prevent Wang Yongzhen from having any accidents.

Yexian was extremely disappointed with his youngest son, Ashitaiji, not only his own morality was unworthy, but also the fact that Boluo's child was killed by Ashitaiji himself, which made Yexian very embarrassed, he had no choice To punish Ah Shi Taiji, there is no way to explain to the army, so he has no choice but not to deal with it, and not to go to the barracks.

Of course Wang Fu could understand Yexian's request, and he said seriously, "Okay."

"Just as long as you promise, I know you best, a gentleman who keeps his promises." Yexian smiled all over his face.

Wang Fu said rather helplessly: "Dashi, I'm afraid we won't be able to go west."

He also paused his cane first, looked at Wang Fu and smiled and said: "You have tried your best, you have tried your best, everything is fate, you can't help yourself at all, if you don't go, then don't go."

"Emperor Zhaolie Baidicheng Tuogu said to Zhuge Liang, if heirs can be assisted, he can be assisted; It’s just an unfinished regret for Shu Han’s entrepreneurship.”

"My son, although Boluo is just a middle-aged man, he still has some appearance following Wang Zizheng's side, but he died in the army."

"Ashitaiji, it seems that there is no need for assistance. In the future, the proposals from the Advisory Court will not need to be sent to the Lan Palace. The king of all affairs can decide on his own."

Wang Fu immediately shook his head and said, "That won't work, the rules are the rules, and the rules can't be broken."

　Ask for a monthly ticket, woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! !
