The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 289 King Yan at the Peak of Prestige and Power
Ying Tianfu.

Imperial City.

In the main hall, several eunuchs lit briquettes, and there was an iron kettle on the coal stove, which was filled with water.

"Look, Your Majesty, this is the fire door. When you open it, the fire power in the furnace increases, and when you close it, the fire power in the furnace decreases."

An old eunuch demonstrated in person, and several little yellow gates watched.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at this thing curiously.

He has heard of it a long time ago, from the beginning he didn't take it seriously, and now he finally saw it for the first time, it can be said that he has heard the name for a long time.

"How many people in the city use briquettes?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Honeycomb coal is indeed convenient, but the price is not low, and not many people use it. It may be a new product that has just appeared, and it will take time."

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the old eunuch.

The old eunuch knew he was talking too much, so he quickly shut his mouth.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he had never read a book, so he has always attached importance to reading, learning culture, and summing up historical experience after success.

His understanding of history exceeds the imagination of many people.

Later generations have countless discussions on the reincarnation of ancient dynasties, and the same is true in ancient times. Zhu Yuanzhang hopes to find out the reasons from history.

The army was a heavy burden on the people, so he improved the guard system.

It was his original intention to make the guards self-sufficient and to save the people from the pain of supporting the army.

The unreliable morality of officials was one of the reasons for the downfall of the dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very strict with officials.

At the end of the dynasty, the corruption of the system was like a fake, and it was also the main reason, so Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to the system.

He asked officials to strictly implement the system, and if they dared to violate the system, they would be severely punished.

Eunuchs are also bad.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang prohibited eunuchs from intervening in politics, and even made a sticker and hung it on the palace gate.

19 years ago.

Zhu Yuanzhang made a mistake in the memorial and was pointed out by a eunuch. The eunuch was later sent out of the palace and sent back to his original place.

The reason is that the eunuch interfered in politics.

Including the summary, among historical dynasties, dynasties with weak clans are mostly short-lived dynasties, and dynasties with stable clans are mostly long-lived dynasties.

So he divided the kings, and no one could change his mind.

He was too successful.

He has more confidence in his abilities.

The old eunuch didn't interfere in politics, but he seemed very smart. Eunuchs shouldn't be so smart, smart people don't want to settle down.

In many cases, Zhu Yuanzhang likes to talk to himself, ask questions by himself, and come up with solutions by himself.

When he couldn't solve it, he would ask those talented people.

But his impression of Shi was too bad.

His childhood sufferings were attributed to the moral problems of officials, so he always doubted their position when making suggestions to talented people.

Whether it comes from a public heart, or for self-profit.

But it goes without saying.

Although this old man has some desires, he hopes that the dynasty will be stable and the family will last forever, but he definitely has the wish for the people to be peaceful and prosperous.

in his cognition.

As long as the people live peacefully and have affluent supplies, the country will naturally prosper and last forever, and the foundation of his old Zhu family will be stable.

"Why can the honeycomb coal in Beiping be sold so cheaply?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought.

Think and think.

Zhu Yuanzhang figured it out.

There is China Heavy Industry in Beiping, which controls the price of raw materials, and sets the price of coal and briquette very low from the beginning.

Ying Tianfu is dominated by businessmen.

They pursue interests, and without systematic management, they cannot guide the industrial chain, so they are naturally expensive.

"It should be like this. It seems to be so advertised in the technology newspaper." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

It seems that I am not old yet.

The little old man felt proud.

Energy prices are directly related to industrial production capacity.

The lower the energy price, the higher the industrial production capacity; conversely, the higher the energy price, the lower the industrial production capacity.

During the coal era, the country had abundant resources.

Later, it quickly entered the gasoline era, and the country lacked two resources, which was very detrimental to the country's strategic security and economic development.

Therefore, later generations have given the greatest support to the development of electric energy, which belongs to the world's most concerned ladder team.

If it really enters the era of electric energy, it is equivalent to making up for the shortcomings.

Petroleum and gas no longer become the seven inches of the country, and it also makes others lose the credence to hold the country's life at the most critical moment.

Li Daoxin came, bringing with him the secrets of Peking.

Originally, there was no time, but because of the content from Beiping Mishu, it was said that there was an epoch-making product in Beiping.

The three words epoch-making often appear in technical newspapers.Li Daoxin, who has read the technical newspaper, also knows the meaning and significance of this word.

Whenever these three words appear in the technical newspaper, there must be new changes.

Zhu Yuanzhang let Li Daoxin come in and let people read it.

Hearing Zhu Gaochi's five sentences, Zhu Yuanzhang had a smile on his face unconsciously, maybe he didn't even notice it.

"This kid likes to speak more and more bureaucratically. He doesn't look like his old man. I don't know who he learned from."

Zhu Yuanzhang's words startled Li Daoxin.

It's not a good thing to be different from your father.

He glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously, and found that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't seem to have any other intentions, it looked like a joke.

"Lian Zining went to Peiping. He is a talented person who does practical things. After he comes back, he will imitate Beiping's industrial promotion in the capital."

"I also want to see what the capital looks like after the industrialization is promoted. I only heard about the changes in Beiping, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. I'm really curious."

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sat back. The exhaustion on his body made him lose energy, but it didn't hinder his interest in speaking.

There are many things he cannot say.

Especially when there are other people around.

His words represent his attitude, so he is very serious, and he cherishes words like gold on major issues.

But Jin Yiwei is different.

It used to be Jiang Xian.

But Jiang Xian has done too many things, too many people have been involved in the Lanyu case, and many people will not tolerate Jiang Xian.

So Jiang Xian is still dead.

Now it was Li Daoxin's turn, the new commander of Jinyiwei, who became Zhu Yuanzhang's speaking partner.

Li Daoxin is not as bold as Jiang Xian, and Li Daoxin is not as strict as Jiang Xian.

Sometimes, Li Daoxin can accompany Zhu Yuanzhang to say a few words.

"I believe that Lian Shilang will make achievements soon, and the saint will be able to see it."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.

"In my opinion, Lian Zining can't do it, at least not in a short time. He, he, is not as good at industry as that kid."

Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes.

Knowing Zhu Yuanzhang's body, the old eunuch quickly leaned over and kneaded Zhu Yuanzhang's back to relieve his pain.

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang cheered up.

No matter how hard it is, he never shows his weak side. This is the reason why he can persevere through hardships since he was a child.

Neither the death of Empress Ma nor the death of Zhu Biao made Zhu Yuanzhang change his daily work schedule.

Like an iron man.

"Actually, I'm very surprised. Where did that child learn his talent? Could it be that he is really gifted and a child prodigy."

Daming is the dynasty that loves child prodigies the most.

What are the three major child prodigies, the four major child prodigies, the six-year-old child prodigy and so on. In the Ming Dynasty, the stories of child prodigies are endless.

"It seems to be true. I never thought that our old Zhu's family could produce a child prodigy."

"Congratulations, Saint."

Li Daoxin couldn't guess what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking.

Following Lian Zining's return from Beiping, this person confirmed Li Xueyan's words and believed that Peiping was a hidden danger.

Of course, this was not said to the outside world, but among those people, many people have begun to pay attention to Peiping.

This is also unavoidable.

A large number of southern businessmen went north, and countless funds poured into Beiping, and no matter how slow people were, they would feel the changes.

But as the commander of Jinyiwei, although Li Daoxin had never personally seen the development of Peiping, the dense content let Li Daoxin know that the strength of Peiping had indeed undergone earth-shaking changes.

So what does the saint think?

Li Daoxin didn't know.

Many people thought that enfeoffing a vassal king would be bad for the country, but no one expected that the sage would insist on this matter.

"Ugh."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed suddenly.

"Let the fourth brother go out."

"The most important thing is to fight a war. It's easy to say anything about winning."

Regarding military affairs, it is different from people's imagination. After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was cautious every time he used troops abroad.

It is necessary to be fully prepared and strive to win.

At that time, Lan Yu was already extremely arrogant, and Zhu Yuanzhang still gave Lan Yu the opportunity to command the army for the victory of the Southwest War.

The same is true now.

No matter what words you say, you can't shake Zhu Yuanzhang's emphasis on military affairs, and everything is based on winning the battle.

With the new decree sent to Peiping, there is also Zhu Yuanzhang's detailed explanation to Zhu Di.

"Hu people are very treacherous. When they are weak, they will not choose to work hard. They often show their weakness and make people lose their vigilance."

"At the enemy's trail in Daning, we seem to be showing weakness to others, and we will set up an ambush to lure our army."

"If you go out to chase easily, you may fall into the trap. You must be cautious in everything, and don't be anxious, let alone sloppy."

The spring of the 29th year of Hongwu.

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Zhu Di, king of Yan, to select elite soldiers and horses and go to Daning and Huining to scout Hu soldiers from north to south along the river and attack them at any time.

At the same time, he ordered King Zhou, who was stationed in Kaifeng, to send his eldest son Zhu Younen to lead the elite of the Henan capital to patrol the Saikou of Beiping.

Zhu Di restrains all soldiers and horses!
It is often said that failure is the mother of success, and this sentence is well reflected in Zhu Yuanzhang.

Because of the military failure against the desert that year, Zhu Yuanzhang is a person who likes to summarize, and he is also a person who pursues perfection.

So in the later period, every time he used troops abroad, no matter who the opponent was, he would use all his strength to fight the rabbit.

If Li Zicheng could understand this truth a few hundred years later, instead of dividing his troops to occupy the territory, he would concentrate his elite troops to fight the battle of Shanhaiguan, the situation might be different.

Well now.

Daning, Beiping, Kaiping, and even Shaanxi.

Zhu Yuanzhang handed over the military encyclopedia of the northern defense line in the entire northern border to Zhu Di, and asked the Henan Guards to go north to support Zhu Di.

This is the result of Zhu Di's outstanding performance over the years. Historically, the reason why the king of Jin was suppressed by Zhu Di.

It is also the reason why the imperial court attaches great importance to King Yan.

Because in history, in the spring of the 29th year of Hongwu, with this decree, the prestige and strength of King Yan reached its peak.

This is the general trend.

Zhu Gaochi wants to take advantage of the momentum.
