Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 315
Zhu Jinsong couldn't help but glanced at Liu Huaiwen, snorted coldly and said, "Uncle Huaiwen, it's true that they owe us money, Daming, but our Daming is not the kind of local rich man who is desperate for debts. We can’t take the bottom line at this juncture.”

Liu Huaiwen thought to himself, are you fooling yourself? This is, when it comes to the savages who harmed Europa to death, how can I, Liu, compare to Your Majesty, your old man?
Of course, Zhu Jinsong is His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty after all, and the face that should be given must be given, so Liu Huaiwen just laughed a few times, and said cheekily: "Isn't this just thinking that there is no money left in the treasury, so..."

Zhu Jinsong waved his hand and said, "Europa is at war right now. If we rush to ask for debts at this juncture, isn't this forcing them to a dead end? Let them owe it first, and wait until the war is over." Say more."

Hearing what Zhu Jinsong said, Liu Huaiwen, Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs couldn't help but want to complain—why is there a war in Europa?Why can't I finish playing for a while?

According to their current method of repaying money while borrowing money at the same time, the interest rate may eventually sell the entire Europa and they will not be able to pay it back!
Especially the interest, after being calculated by the doctors and waiters in the coffin boards of the household department, the monthly interest does not seem to be much, and the overall interest does not seem to be too much, but it is time to pay back the money , this interest is terrible.

Under such circumstances, why did you, Emperor Zhu, keep saying that you can't drive them to death?
Oh, bah!
Of course Zhu Jinsong didn't know that Zeng Cheng, Liu Huaiwen, including Zhu Erdan and others were secretly slandering him as the Emperor of Ming, but even if he knew, Zhu Jinsong probably wouldn't care.

People like Zhu Erdan just need to be beaten up. People like Zeng Cheng and Liu Huaiwen can't be beaten up. For the sake of their hard work for the Ming Dynasty, send a few Japanese to their homes. It's okay to be a concubine. At that time, there will be opportunities to slowly watch a big show called Hedong Lion's Roar.

After he knocked on the table with his fingers, Zhu Jinsong continued: "In addition to those savages in Europa, our Ming Dynasty should also find a way to become stronger. If not, why should we deal with such a changing situation?"

Hearing what Zhu Jinsong said, Zeng Cheng, Liu Huaiwen and other bigwigs unconsciously reached out and touched their heads.

Of course, Zeng Cheng, Liu Huaiwen and other bigwigs didn't have any doubts like "Is my head on or not", but simply cared about their hair.

Everyone hopes that Daming can become stronger, and everyone knows that the current situation is undergoing major changes unseen in a thousand years, and there may be major chaos if he is not careful, but the fundamental problem is not how to become stronger?In addition, Zhu Jinsong, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is a particularly tossing...

Let's count it.

Ever since His Majesty and his elders took over Meng Lianggu, they have been tossing about things like literacy, social studies, and peasant associations.

I think back when the Qing Dynasty was still there, what the court said was what it was, what the government said was what it was, what the officials and lords said was what they said, and what the local gentry and gentry said.
Fortunately, Zhu Jinsong, the Ming emperor, can do whatever he wants, and it is easy to push back the decrees issued by the imperial court, but it is very difficult for the local officials and gentlemen to do so.

If you want to get some money, you have to be careful not only the inspecting censors and inspecting censors, but also the eagle dogs of Jin Yiwei, and even the peasant associations and ordinary people with mud legs.

In addition to being greedy for money, it is not as blatantly greedy as it was in the Qing Dynasty, and even trying to bully those mud-legged people is not as convenient as before-if you want to fool those mud-legged people who are literate and know some laws of the Ming Dynasty, it is comparable to It is a thousand times harder to be blind when you open your eyes and don't recognize a word when the pole is upside down.

Yaoshou ah!
Except for the Hongwu period, in which dynasty and which generation of officials and gentlemen were as aggrieved as they are now?

Of course, being aggrieved is aggrieved, but it is still impossible to say that I will resign and not do it. If it is a big deal, I will bear it, and if I bear it, I will pass it.

In addition, things like steam locomotives and roads that His Majesty and his old man tossed are even more terrible.

Whether it is the construction of railways for steam locomotives or roads paved with asphalt, neither can be completed by the Ministry of Industry by drawing a few lines on paper, nor does it mean that as long as there are enough materials and labor It can be built well, which also involves planning and demolition issues.

As for the land, it is easier to say, after all, the land is owned by the Ming court, and it is only allocated to the common people to cultivate. If you want to requisition, you only need to replace it, and you don’t even need to pay any compensation.

However, what if it involves the houses where the people live or the cemeteries of the people's homes?

For the people of Ming Dynasty, it is nothing to occupy their houses. As long as the court is willing to arrange new houses for them, they are not unacceptable. But it's different.

Another example is the treasure banknote.

Treasure banknotes have been depreciating since they were issued in the Hongwu period, and even became inferior to waste paper. In the current Ming court, treasure banknotes are very good things, because not only the people of Daming itself are using them, but even those Barbarians in Europa and other maritime merchants also like to use Ming's precious banknotes.

Some people may say that there is nothing in the treasure banknote, but it is just some paper, and the Ming court can print it as it wants?
In fact, it's not that simple.

Although His Majesty the Emperor keeps saying that even if carpenters are allowed to study the economy, it will not have any impact on the development of Ming Dynasty, but who doesn't know that this is His Majesty the Emperor's habitual complaint?

If the carpenter is responsible for the printing and distribution of banknotes, the entire economy of Ming Dynasty will not collapse, it will be hell.

For example, how many precious banknotes should the Ming Dynasty print based on the gold and silver reserves in the treasury?Or is it calculated based on the current gross product value in the Ming market?

If there is less printing, money is expensive and things are cheap, and if there is too much printing, things are expensive and money is cheap.

It is terrible that money is expensive and things are cheap, but what about expensive things and cheap things?Once caught in this vicious circle, it will inevitably usher in the overall economic collapse in the end, and the precious banknotes will naturally slide towards waste paper at one time.

Not to mention the messy things such as recruiting laborers, relocating people to the border, reforming the court system, and killing Europa to death, etc. that are still tossing around.

To put it bluntly, the current Daming is more like a heavy car going uphill - it is said that the heavy car can't be retracted when it goes downhill, but going uphill is also a terrible thing for this heavy car. Shen will be killed in a car crash.

The huge pressure has long caused a huge crisis in the hairlines of Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs.

There was even a saying in the court of the Ming Dynasty: out of seven court men, six are bald, and one is immediately bald.

There is also a folk joke: put a hundred officials in exactly the same clothes and dress up in exactly the same way, and then cover their faces, then the only way to tell whether their positions are high or low is to look at their hair. The rookies who entered the officialdom basically didn't have much hair when they mixed up to the third rank or above.

Although these messy ridicules did not represent the actual situation, these messy things in the Ming Dynasty Hall did make Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs lose their hair in worry.

Now this master is saying that he wants to strengthen Daming's own strength, or is he afraid that he will not be able to cope with the changing situation?

Zeng Cheng really wanted to ask the master sitting on the dragon chair, how did this change come about?If it weren't for your old man's desperate toss, would our Daming face the current change?
Just when Zeng Cheng complained secretly, Zhu Jinsong went on to say: "Over Tianzhu, Tojo Kojiro from the Japanese country is doing pretty well, but judging from his current movements in Tianzhu, he has to be a little bit more serious. It’s about being on guard.”

After being told by Zhu Jinsong, Zhu Erdan immediately asked curiously: "Kojiro Tojo? My brother is so stupid, I really can't figure out what this Japanese slave should be wary of?"

Zhu Jinsong laughed, and said: "Use it well, the Japanese slaves are loyal hunting dogs, but once the rope is loosened, these dog slaves may turn around and devour the master."

"Now that Ming's national power is tyrannical, and we are stationed in the Wa country, then these little brats naturally don't dare to have other ideas."

"But you have to know that those dwarfs were born and raised in the country of Wa. They knew from a young age that the land of the country of Wa is barren and prone to frequent earthquakes. They dream of getting a stable continent. It just so happens that Tianzhu is thousands of miles away, and Ming is in There are not many garrisons in Tianzhu, can you guarantee that those dwarfs will not be tempted?"

Zhu Erdan said disapprovingly: "Brother Huang is worrying too much, it's just a few short people, even if they are tempted, so what? The former military governor's mansion controlled by my younger brother alone is enough to destroy the Japanese kingdom ten times and eight times. "

Zhu Jinsong couldn't help but glared at Zhu Erdan, and scolded: "Aren't you owed a beating again?"

"Think about it, when we rebelled in Ningyang County, was he Jianyi's strength strong, or our strength strong?"

"If you are more powerful than the Wa country based on your national strength, you can safely and boldly let the Wa country go, you are looking for death!"

Zhu Erdan was so scolded that he didn't dare to say anything, but couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "We were able to succeed in the rebellion because of you, so there can be someone like you in the Japanese country?"

Zhu Jinsong was immediately laughed angrily by Zhu Erdan: "Even if there won't be a second Zhen on the Wa Kingdom, but you can guarantee that the Wa Kingdom won't cause trouble for Daming in Tianzhu?"

"As for your stupid brain, I don't know whether it's right or wrong to entrust you as a prince and king, and I even doubt whether you can keep the country and the country."

"Remember it well, you are the prince of Daming, and you will also be the prince of the kingdom of kings in the future. You should be kind to the people of Daming under your rule, but except for the people of Daming, you must be careful, especially those who Barbarians."

"How many times have the sages said that if you are not of my race, their hearts must be different. Why don't you have a long memory!?"

Zhu Erdan didn't dare to speak back, and after a long time, he blushed and said: "Yes, I know I was wrong."

Zhu Jinsong just snorted, and continued: "Those dwarfs are very well-behaved now, but it doesn't mean they will be so well-behaved in the future, otherwise, after the Battle of Baijiangkou in the Tang Dynasty, where did our Ming Dynasty come from?" Japanese pirates?"

"You have to remember, this is the way of raising a dog. You have to feed the dog, but you can't let the dog eat too much, and you can't loose the rope casually."

"Let the dogs eat too much, they won't hunt for you with all their heart, and loosen the rope casually. When they get used to the days without rope, if you try to tie the rope again, you may be bitten back. .”

Speaking of this, Zhu Jinsong turned his head to Zhu Sanshun and said: "There is also the third child, you must also remember this point, it is okay to give kindness, but you must not give too much kindness, remember to promote Mi En, fight Mi Qiu s story."

Zhu Sanshun nodded and said: "Yes, brother emperor, I have made a note of it."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Sanshun said to Zhu Erdan: "Second Brother, you must also remember that Brother Huang is doing this for the benefit of both of us."

Zhu Erdan blushed and said, "Yes, I made a note."

But that being said, no matter Zhu Erdan and Zhu Sanshun brothers, or Zeng Cheng and Liu Huaiwen and other bigwigs, everyone still couldn't help but secretly slander in their hearts.

If you want to say that you have given too much kindness, in fact, throughout the ages, your Majesty, the old man, has given you the most kindness and the worst kind. To put it bluntly, it is simply too spoiling the people.

That's right, doting.

When Qian Deaf old dog dealt with the Xiayi flood case, he once issued an imperial decree: "States and counties are the parents of the people. If the people criticize their parents, I will not listen to one side's words and open the wind of coercion. For example, although the ancestor loves his parents Grandson, don’t let him rely on his kindness to rebel against his parents, this kind of stubbornness must not grow!”

But it would be better to be your Majesty, an old man. Which one of these policy strategies is not for the benefit of the ordinary people?

Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs were even a little worried, worried that if Zhu Jinsong favored the common people so much, he would allow the common people to become "arrogant" in the future?

For example, rumors of the royal family are the most popular among the people. It would be no big deal if it was replaced by various anecdotes and gossips about other emperors, but Zhu Jinsong, the Ming emperor, is also full of gossip.

What's even more irritating is that there are even rumors among the people that Zhu Jinsong is not a descendant of the Ming royal family at all, but his real identity is just an ordinary mud-legged person from Ningyang County, Yanzhou, Shandong. After the royal family, it was just to raise troops under the guise of being a descendant of the Ming royal family.

There are even some rumors that Zhu Jinsong, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, killed too much, and there is no peace.

Anyway, all kinds of messy rumors are flying around.
