Chapter 213 The South is in Chaos!

Some things cannot be implemented with a slap of the head.

All the things that should be considered should be considered in place, and all the things involved should be involved.

You can't just move because of your own thoughts, and you can't just do it because of your own whim.

Of course, Sun Jie knows that no matter what he does, he should consider the background of the times and the current environment.

So after he put forward the "First Five-Year Plan", he didn't let people implement it immediately.

Instead, the "First Five-Year Plan" was distributed to various departments, allowing them to improve and modify it to conform to the background of this era and avoid problems.

The "First Five-Year Plan" proposed by Sun Jie was unprecedented for these officials, and they had never encountered such a thing in their many years as officials.

Moreover, it has never been seen in history books that there is no essential difference in the way of governing from ancient times to the present.

Back then, after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, his management of the world was no different from that of previous dynasties.

He has been using the methods handed down from ancient times to the present, and the methods he adopts are nothing more than officials and people.

To put it bluntly, except that some production tools have changed, the rest of the way of life is not much different from a thousand years ago, and there is not much change.

So after Sun Jie's five-year plan was put forward, many officials felt at a loss and had nowhere to start.

Most of the officials in Sun Jie's hands were former traditional scholars, and the education they received was Confucian culture.

When governing the world, traditional concepts are still the mainstay, and stability is the mainstay.

Improving the livelihood of the local people is important, but it is not the responsibility of the government.

Herdsmen and herdsmen, especially official herdsmen, what they have to do is to maintain local stability.

In order to allow these officials to dispel their worries and have a clear goal and understanding at the same time, Sun Jie even wrote a manual himself.

Named "Economy, People's Livelihood and Empire", in this manual, Sun Jie explained the relationship between these three groups in a simple and clear way.

After the booklet was printed and distributed to the officials, Sun Jie asked these officials to read it every day, and at the same time, he also wrote his impressions and understanding of the booklet.

Thanks to Sun Jie's efforts, these officials have initially achieved results.

The first five-year plan was also gradually perfected amidst the ups and downs, and it was issued at the same time.

Along with the issuance of the first five-year plan, there is also a piece of paper written by Sun Jie.

The document order: "The promotion and relegation of officials are all carried out in accordance with the five-year plan. If the contents of the plan are completed within the specified time, the promotion will be carried out. Will be relegated!"

As soon as this order came out, officials all over the world were worried.

This is much more ruthless than the Jingcha made by Zhang Juzheng back then. At least there are a lot of loopholes in the Jingcha that can be exploited.

Whether this thing is good or bad, whether the political achievements are completed or not, all are things that can be seen at a glance.

Even if it is adulterated, how can it be hidden?
A fake is still a fake after all, and with a little investigation, you can find out thoroughly.

But it's not without some benefits, at least you don't have to worry about your relationship being bad and your background not strong.

Everything depends on political achievements. As long as political achievements are made, as long as they are placed there, there is no fear of not being promoted.

For those young and energetic officials, this is a great opportunity.For those officials who want to fish in troubled waters, just want to be rich or have other thoughts, it is a very torturous thing.

That's what Sun Jie wants. These officials have been around for thousands of years, and they can't just keep hanging around like this.

In order to better promote the economy, Sun Jie built glass factories, cement factories and other factories that can be built outside Chang'an City.

Some indigenous steelmaking furnaces and some textile factories were also built.

At the same time, Sun Jie set off the first round of major infrastructure projects.

The project includes the construction of large roads from Jingzhaofu to Yansui Town, Gansu Town, Shanxi, Beiping and other places.

Connect the key cities in the whole north, make the road smooth and exchange what is needed.

Expand Jingzhao Mansion, expand key cities in various places, and encourage industrial, commercial and handicraft practitioners.

Build bridges and roads, build houses and build cities, Sun Jie will do everything he can.

The Daming Bank paid for the investment, and the Ministry of Industry was responsible for the construction. A large number of workers were recruited to start infrastructure construction throughout the north.

These workers have created a large number of jobs, and at the same time attracted many small traders who sell food, clothing or other items.

The money invested by the Daming Bank will become a vast road and wages in the pockets of these workers.

After these workers earn money, they will buy food, clothes, or other things, and the money will flow into the pockets of those small traders.

Then through taxes, part of their money will be returned.

Tolls will be collected after the road is completed.

With smooth roads and steam trucks, the transportation of goods will be many times faster than before.

This will promote the prosperity of business, but also bring a lot of jobs and tax revenue.

The days passed day by day like this, and with Jingzhao Mansion as the center, the surrounding area became a huge construction site.

The workers are working in full swing and full of vitality.

……

The autumn wind is gradually rising, and yellow flowers are piled up in the city of Chang'an.

In the palace, Sun Jie accompanied Sun Ling to walk in the harem.

Sun Ling is pregnant. It's four months old and she's showing signs of pregnancy.

Surrounded by maids and eunuchs, they stayed close at every step, always on guard.

Not only the maids and eunuchs in the palace, but all the civil and military gazes of the court were all on Sun Ling's stomach.

Sun Ling's first child is particularly important, and the future successor of the empire is the most critical.

The imperial garden is not big, and autumn chrysanthemums are blooming in it.

Walking on the stone path in the garden, Sun Jie said with a smile: "This autumn is earlier than in previous years. It is September now. In March and April next year, our child will be born!"

Sun Ling followed beside her, talking with a smile.

She would not ask Sun Jie such silly topics as whether he likes boys or girls, unless it was just gossip.

There can never be too much for an empire, boy.

The sun hangs quietly in the middle of the sky, and at this time it has already lost its former power.

The fragrance in the royal garden filled the air, making Sun Jie much more relaxed at this moment.

Although Sun Jie set up the Civil Senate and the Military Senate, there are still many things waiting for him to deal with every day.

In the past, I was always envious of the emperor's wives and concubines, who could do whatever they wanted.

Now he has become an emperor, but he envies ordinary people who are idle and wild cranes.

Every step you take must be carefully considered.

In order not to affect future generations because of their own mistakes.

You can't do things like Chongzhen, without considering the consequences, and only consider your own feelings.

Today, I took time out to walk with Sun Ling until dusk, and finally returned to the imperial study.

There is still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.

Not long after sitting down, Lu Xiangsheng, who had been promoted to a military councilor, asked to see him.

If he came over, there must be military matters.

Sure enough, after he came in, he brought a piece of breaking news.

Lu Xiangsheng stood in front of Sun Jie, took out a military report from his arms, and handed it to the eunuch on duty next to him.

The eunuch on duty handed over the military report to Sun Jie.

Lu Xiangsheng said at the same time: "The Central Plains spies reported that Nanyang Tang Wang Zhu Yujian captured Ruzhou three days ago. Now, under his command, he leads the three prefectures of Nanyang, Ruzhou and Runing, with a strong force of [-] troops.

Face off directly with King Fu of Luoyang in the north and King Zhou of Kaifeng in the east, and sooner or later there will be a battle between them..."

After Tang Wang Zhu Yujian returned to Nanyang, with the help of Lu Zhenfei, he began to recruit troops.

In a short period of time, the entire Nanyang Mansion was brought under control.

Zhu Yujian is different from other vassal princes. He has outstanding ability and righteousness, and he is well-known in Nanyang Mansion.

He used all his possessions in the Tang Palace, and together with donations from gentry from all over Nanyang, he recruited [-] troops, the largest army in the Central Plains.

Although King Fu of Luoyang is richer than King Tang, he is not as capable as Zhu Yujian, so Zhu Yujian has been beaten on the ground by Zhu Yujian.

If it hadn't been for King Zhou holding back in the east, I'm afraid King Fu would have been taken down by Zhu Yujian long ago.

Now that Zhu Yujian has won Ruzhou, his strength will go up to a higher level.

If enough time is given, it might not be possible to unify the Central Plains.

"The Kong family in Shandong also pulled out a team, known as the Wen Army, under the banner of protecting the place.

But Kong Yanzhi's eyelids are too shallow, and what he does are all shady things, annexing land and forcing people into prostitution.

Now that he has soldiers in his hands, his power is stronger, and he even took down Dagon Prefecture in the west.

As for Jiangnan, that Qian Jiangkun recruited [-] soldiers and is now fighting with Zheng Zhilong's men outside Jinling City.

Huguang is similar, and vassal kings from all over the country have started.

The whole south side is under attack.In my opinion, if they are allowed to fight like this, something will happen sooner or later. "

Lu Xiangsheng sighed.

To this day, he still can't figure out why the situation has become like this.

He couldn't imagine what it would be like if he was still in the south, in Daming?
He took his family over a long time ago, and now he is not worried about his family's problems.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is even more chaotic than when the bandits and slaves were established.

These people in Jiangnan have tasted the taste of power, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop! "Lu Xiangsheng returned.

Sun Jie put down the military newspaper in his hand and looked at Lu Xiangsheng.

"What do you think of this? What do you think we should do now? Should we go straight south, or wait a little longer?!" Sun Jie asked.

These words stopped Lu Xiangsheng. It stands to reason that the sooner the troops should be dispatched, the better.

But now that the situation has become like this, Lu Xiangsheng is a little confused.

"I think that we should send out troops as soon as possible, and with a mighty force, the army will go south, and the wind will sweep away the fallen leaves to clean them up thoroughly!" Lu Xiangsheng said loudly.

If it was before, Sun Jie might still agree with Lu Xiangsheng's point of view.

But now, Sun Jie has another idea.

There was war, and then there was famine, and refugees, and all kinds of things.

For Sun Jie, this might as well be an opportunity.

Ordinary people don't like fighting, and when there is a war, they will run away.

The world is so big, only Sun Jie can take them in here.

At this time, only a small number of troops need to be dispatched to control a large population.

During the first five-year plan, the larger the population, the better the effect, and the happier Sun Jie was.

Moreover, Sun Jie can also ask Qin Shang to pretend to be a little disguised and sell high-priced food, high-priced weapons and other military supplies to those warlord leaders.

Sun Jie's strength was hundreds of years stronger than theirs, and he was not afraid of any threat they would pose if he sold them some scrap metal that he had seized before.

No matter when, selling arms is always a huge profit.

Wait until they are squeezed dry and clean, and then use the autumn wind to sweep the fallen leaves and take down the whole world.

In this turmoil in the south, the gentry and the vassals will definitely fight desperately for their own interests.

After they exhausted their last bit of strength, Sun Jie swept them all away with overwhelming force.

It also saves Sun Jie from doing it. It is estimated that before Sun Jie does it, they will have almost internal friction.

Sun Jie soon had an idea in his mind, he shook his head, and said: "It is true that the army can directly destroy them by going south, but this is not the best choice!

Let them fight slowly first, the snipe and the clam will fight each other, and the fisherman will benefit.Let's be fishermen, as long as we keep a few things unchanged, we are not afraid of accidents!
How about this, let me propose a few general regulations, after you go to the military senate, discuss it carefully, and come up with a specific regulation in the past few days! "

Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly took out a palm-sized notebook and a sharpened pencil from his pocket.

Sun Jie would say some opinions or regulations at any time, and as a courtier, he needed to write them down at any time.

"After going down, find a way to get the people out of the war-torn area. At the same time, check the arsenals and seized weapons in various places, refurbish them, and prepare to sell them to the south. These scraps of copper and iron are useless. It's better to buy some money than to rust ..."

……

After Lu Xiangsheng left, Sun Jie had his father-in-law, Sun Chuwen, brought over again.

He is the helm of Qin Shang, and now he doesn't care about things, and his prestige is still there.

It is up to him to sell weapons and military supplies.

Not long after, Sun Chuwen came to the imperial study.

For Sun Chuwen, this matter was not difficult.

He patted his chest and kept assuring Sun Jie that these things would be done well.

After finishing these tasks, Sun Jie cleaned up all the memorials accumulated in the past few days, arranged for the next few days, and then returned to the modern age.

After changing clothes in that small yard, I drove to the supermarket.

Haven't been here for a long time, the outside is covered with dust.

The supermarket and even the entire building were bought by Sun Jie, and he was not afraid of the landlord demanding the rent.

Since the school moved away, it has become more and more lonely here.

Today, the depression here is visible to the naked eye.

Most of the shops on both sides of the street are closed, or they have posted notices saying "Wang Shop Sublet".

Looking at the notice on the door of the store next door, Sun Jie shook his head.

"Back then, the words Wangpu sublet were posted on the door of the supermarket, and then they were tricked.

If at that time, I didn't buy the supermarket, what would it be like? ! "
