Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 320 Went to Australia to Dig Gold Mine

"Teach?" Luo Fangbo was taken aback, "How to teach? Do you want to set up a school?"

Emperor Zhu smiled.

"Of course there is no need to establish any schools, but I will decree that local magistrates and magistrates will come to Songjiang Prefecture and Guangzhou Prefecture in batches to study and inspect. In addition, the Industry and Commerce Promotion Association will also compile teaching materials for them, teach them, and study!"

"From now on, I, an official of the Ming Dynasty, must have a string of industry and commerce in my head!"

Emperor Zhu said.

Letting Luo Fangbo do this matter was naturally after careful consideration.

Because Luo Fangbo had the experience of traveling in Southeast Asia, and he had been the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty for so many years.

With experience and prestige, no one dared to say anything to guide those local officials to do things.

And he doesn't really have much to do.

The textbook Emperor Zhu has already begun to be organized and compiled.

The performance appraisal of local officials in the metropolitan area is also mainly guided by "GDP".

If the local officials of the Ming Dynasty wanted to be promoted, they had to devote all their attention to the development of the local economy.

And now the best developing place in Daming.

It should belong to Songjiang Prefecture and Guangzhou Prefecture.

These two places, on the one hand, have a tradition of industry and commerce, and on the other hand, they are the mouths of two rivers with the largest runoff in China. They are the leading areas of the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta, and their locations are excellent.

Guangzhou is the place where Emperor Zhu started his family, and now it is the southern capital of Ming Dynasty. It was already prosperous in business and industry.

Shanghai County in Songjiang Prefecture was drawn in a circle by Emperor Zhu.

Shanghai County was promoted to Shanghai City, and the entire Shanghai City belonged to Songjiang Prefecture administratively, but it was directly under the Ming Dynasty economically and financially, so it was regarded as a "city with separate planning".

With the great investment from the Ming Royal Consortium, Shanghai soon became the fastest growing region in the entire Ming Dynasty.

in this era.

There is no ten-mile foreign market.

However, there are a large number of factories on both sides of the Huangpu River that have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and a large number of Liangjiang poor people from all over the world come to Shanghai to seek life.

They will all be old Shanghai in the future.

They're all Gangboning, they're old-fashioned.

It's just that now Shanghai is full of "urban villages" where workers gather, which really has nothing to do with the later western style.

And there is a high probability that it will never be touched.

Because this place will become one of the largest industrial areas in the Ming Dynasty, and it will also be the starting point for exporting industrial products.

Here, it will be branded as an "industrial city" forever.

Engage in industry.

Naturally, it is impossible to be foreign.

Workers don’t like coffee too much. Most of them drink pancakes with green onions, or Hunan dishes with heavy oil and salt—do you need to add more carbohydrates and salt to work hard?

Compared with Shanghai, which is full of villages in the city.

Guangzhou in this era, on the contrary, has a little "foreign style".

Because this place belonged to Daming earlier, and Guangzhou City is different from Shanghai. Guangzhou City has a lot of people, and factories are built at the mouth of the Pearl River. Instead, Guangzhou plays more of a role as a central city. How many industries have been seen, but a large number of commercial firms and bank headquarters are built here.

It has become a gathering place for a large number of companies and headquarters.

It has become the financial center of Daming.
In addition, in Guangdong, there are many nobles and heroes, and there are many veterans who served as soldiers for Emperor Zhu.

And Guangzhou is the thousand-year-old capital of Guangdong, and its status as the provincial capital is unshakable. Rich people in Guangdong like to live in the provincial capital if they have money.

In recent years, real estate in Guangzhou has been booming.

At least most people can't afford a house in Guangzhou anymore.

A group of rich people gathered together, and Guangzhou's consumer culture also developed.

As a result, Guangzhou has become the fashion capital and consumption capital of Ming Dynasty.

If someone looks at the current Guangzhou and Shanghai from the perspective of future generations, it is afraid that there will be a little space-time confusion.

The two places have switched places.
Of course, Shen Song, Bai Ning, Wu Xinzhong, and Du Ruchong who came to Guangzhou would never know this.

Emperor Zhu wanted to send his local officials to visit Shanghai and Guangzhou.

I didn't expect it.

The group of Shen Song and Bai Ning cleared up the remnants of evil before, but they first went from south to north, from the northern capital to the central capital, then to the Songjiang mansion, and now to the Guangzhou mansion.

If it weren't for the prosperity of the transportation industry in the Ming Dynasty, if we had to walk on two legs before, it would be impossible to go to these places for many years.

But now it's different.

With the unification of the world, the canal connects the north and the south, and the Yangtze River shipping connects the east and west. At least the river transportation network of the Han provinces is very extensive. In addition, there is no forbidden sea in Ming Dynasty, and the coastal shipping is also quite developed.

Coupled with the progress of the shipbuilding industry and the frequent population movement in the Ming Dynasty, it promoted the development of passenger ship transportation.

It took only five days to go directly to Guangzhou by boat from Zhongdu.

Wu Xinzhong and Du Ruchong are very famous now, but everyone knows that they have offended Emperor Zhu, so there are no dignitaries to contact them.

Isn't this what you can't find yourself happy with?

On the contrary, Shen Song, who missed the Qing Dynasty, was very interested in these few scholars who dared to oppose Emperor Zhu. He took the initiative to contact them, and even paid for the boat to take Wu Xinzhong and Du Ruchong to Guangzhou.

Although Guangzhou is the southern capital, since the wars and major problems of the Ming Dynasty in recent years were all in the north, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty rarely visited.

In addition, there are many rich people, many nobles, strong consumption and a long distance from the imperial court.

So much so that the atmosphere in Guangzhou seems too "free".

Various civic cultures such as novels and operas serving the urban class are developing very prosperously.

There are also quite a lot of newspapers.

And quite dare to write.

Anyway, as the Ming Dynasty loosened its grip on social public opinion, the local public opinion atmosphere would naturally become much more relaxed.

All kinds of tabloids appeared.

Among them, the most popular ones are of course erotic pictures, H novels and the like.

As long as this thing is not banned, there must be a very large market.

Of course, not everyone is a veteran.

There are also some newspapers that serialize novels in newspapers in order to increase sales.

The most popular recently are some "exotic adventure" novels.

The content is nothing more than a novel about the common people in the interior, who ventured to wild places abroad, and got gold and silver at every turn, and there were also beautiful stories about foreign princesses throwing themselves into their arms.

Although the routines are similar.

But it also greatly satisfies the spiritual pursuit of the masses.

It's selling very well.

Now Bai Ning is holding a newspaper and reading it with gusto. It tells the story of a young man from Guangzhou who went to Australia to discover a big gold mine and made a fortune.

"Are there really gold mines in Australia?"

After Bai Ning finished reading the last chapter, he put down the newspaper unsatisfied, and secretly scolded the dog in his heart when the author broke chapters and was simply not human.

Suddenly there was a long queue of people in front of them.

"That is."

Before Bai Ning could react, someone stuffed a flyer over."

"Go to Australia to dig gold mines, go to Australia to make a fortune!!"
