I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 248 Zhu Houzhao confronts the important officials of Nanjing! You must move quickly! The important officials of Nanjing are united!
"Your Majesty, I feel... can we slow down our pace a little?"

"It seems that since the anniversary of Taizu's death..."

"No, after Emperor Taizong's mausoleum was destroyed by Liu Jian and other traitors..."

"Everything is going on too fast for us..."

"Jinling is fine now..."

"But Huguang and the north...are already in a state of chaos."

"The current Ming Dynasty..."

It was said to be a report of problems, but after Zhu Youluo thought about it, all the problems came down to one point.

Ever since Zhu Houzhao obtained the third eye from his ancestors, everything has accelerated.

He is in his thirties and should be in the prime of his life, but since the accelerator button was pressed, he has to deal with at least a hundred things every day.

They were all serious business, and he was so busy that he had no time to rest.

"What's wrong with the Ming Dynasty today? President, why don't you just speak frankly!"

Zhu Houzhao naturally also knew that the current development of the Ming Dynasty was already on an unprecedented path.

Originally, he should be extremely cautious in selecting and employing people, but at the moment... he has no time to deal with corruption.

As long as the general direction of Ming Dynasty is development, he can ignore these details.

"Others can say it too..."

Zhu Houzhao knew everyone’s concerns, but now he only looked at the results, not the process.

At the same time, as long as you firmly grasp the power of personnel, finance and military, nothing else can cause any trouble.

"Let the President speak first..."

Huang Bao and the others naturally knew what Zhu Youlang was going to say.

It was tactful to let Zhu Youqiang take the lead.

"Okay, Your Majesty, let me be frank... I think that we in the Ming Dynasty should slow down now, especially since Your Majesty often adds so many things to the task before we have even finished some of them..."

"We have spread our business too far. What if Taizu and Taizong stop supporting us?"

"I'm afraid that our Ming Dynasty will fall into an irretrievable situation..."

"Your Majesty should first quickly pacify the world..."

To be honest, Zhu Youlang had never seen such a wealthy court.

Even if one spends a lot of money on various materials, it is not certain that they can be fully digested.

Such extravagant spending made him spend money with trepidation.

"Yes... Your Majesty, if the supplies provided by Taizu and Taizong are cut off..."

Huang Bao also quickly agreed, saying that they were not very comfortable spending such a huge amount of supplies.

"Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty, there is one more point... The supplies given by Taizu and Taizong are really too much. Not only are they too much, but we have never even seen some of them... It's as if they can provide unlimited supplies in the heavenly court... Although I feel comfortable using them, I still don't feel at ease..."

Li Shan also put forward his opinions.

Thinking it was something serious, Zhu Houzhao just smiled, did not respond, and continued to look at other people.

After all, these people really don’t know how big his trump card is.

"Lin Han, what about you..."

"Your Majesty... What the president and the others said is exactly what I am worried about..."

"At present, all kinds of things, especially materials, need people to distribute them, and some people have begun to embezzle money..."

“Many of our officials, especially those young people who have been placed in power without any observation, have been corrupted…”

Lin Han also spoke the truth, and said worriedly: "In fact, there are many people who want to use my relationship with them to arrange lucrative positions for them..."

"Although Taizu and Taizong have given us a lot of supplies, if there are too many termites..."

Having been used to hard times, they were terrified after only one month of lavish living.

"Haha...is that all?" Zhu Houzhao looked at the others.

"That's pretty much it, Your Majesty..."

Zhu Youjun nodded. They asked these questions out of awe, out of fear of the terror and huge amounts of supplies falling from the sky.

"Okay! I know you're worried!"

"I will reiterate it to you one last time!"

"My plan!"

Zhu Houzhao knew that he still had to reassure the presidential team.

"First, the first question! I can answer you directly... Don't worry about the consumption of supplies! I can provide an unlimited amount of supplies! Even if each of you greedily takes all the supplies and keeps them for yourselves, I can still provide ten or a hundred times the supplies!"

"Especially food!"

"Even if the people of the entire Ming Dynasty have nothing to eat or drink, as long as I am alive, I can support them for three, five, ten years, or even a lifetime!"

"How much can corrupt officials take?"

Just kidding, there are currently eight time and space serving as the Ming Dynasty's logistics warehouses. Zhu Houzhao is not worried about running out of supplies at all, not to mention that there will be other American time and space in the future.

America's path has proved that even if the national bureaucracy is allowed to let go of greed, America can still last for more than a hundred years.

Now, he has more than eight American time and space to supply various materials to the Ming Dynasty. The current materials of the Ming Dynasty can be consumed for decades even if some are consumed and some are discarded!

The people of America can live so well, so what if the people of Ming Dynasty can live a little better with the support of America?

With the support of the chat group, Zhu Houzhao has become a super rich man!
"How much can a corrupt official take?"

This was so arrogant that Zhu Youlang and the others twitched their lips when they heard this.

But when they thought about it, they could only admit that this was indeed a fact.

Just take sugar as an example. They release millions of kilograms of it at any time. Who can consume hundreds of kilograms a day? So what if they are greedy for hundreds of thousands of kilograms? Still have to spend a lot of effort to exchange it for money or other materials?

What's more, there are other good things.

Anyone who has witnessed Zhu Houzhao's magic and has a clear mind knows that they should follow Zhu Houzhao closely to enjoy the good life. If they really delay their future for some small profits, they would be crazy.

"All kinds of supplies, if they can be sent out... and mobilize people's strength! That's what we call supplies!"

"Don't worry about this anymore!"

"What you need to consider for me now is how to make better use of the materials in Nanjing and send them out to the people of Ming Dynasty! Let these people contribute to the construction of our Ming Dynasty!"

"The people of the Ming Dynasty have supported our Zhu family for so many years, it's time to repay them!"

"Don't be like a miser, guarding the little piece of land in front of you and scrimping..."

“Consumption is also a kind of productivity!”

Zhu Houzhao naturally evolved again, especially after receiving some superficial economic theory books and concepts from Roosevelt and others, and digesting them with Xu Yunmiao, his current economic level naturally surpassed everyone in the Ming Dynasty.

"President, don't forget what I told you..."

"What I want to do is to allow the people of the Ming Dynasty to enjoy one tenth of my royal meals!"

"I'm not going to say that I can make sure that they have meat every meal, but the current situation is that I can guarantee that the people who come to Yingtian Prefecture can have enough to eat every meal..."

"We can even use the surplus food for breeding..."

"Anyway...you guys go and arrange all these things!"

"You can be bolder and more radical..."

"I have already said... Even if the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, I only need Nanjing, the capital, and Chang'an to remain intact. Even if each place can accommodate 10 million or 20 million people, it will be fine!"

"I just happened to rebuild a new Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Houzhao reiterated his bottom line.

The emergence and impact of various American products was naturally a dimensionality reduction blow to an agricultural economy like the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, before the dimensionality reduction attack came, the Ming Dynasty had already been in civil strife, and the scene of vassal kings and warlords separatist had just destroyed the fragile economic system of the Ming Dynasty. Although this could cause pain to tens of millions of people.

But after going through this pain, the Ming Dynasty will be reborn.

Jinling, Beijing, Chang'an.

As long as the three cities are kept intact, as one city grows stronger while the other declines, there is no need to worry about separatist forces occupying the land and ruling the country.

The economy was in tatters. How could those warlords who occupied the land and ruled as kings fight against Zhu Houzhao and his men?
"Also... I took too big a step..."

"Where's the world map?"

As Zhu Houzhao spoke, he directly unfolded the world map.

"My Ming Dynasty only occupies such a small area! With the current situation of war, reconstruction and restoration of order, it will take at least three years at the fastest!"

"But besides the Ming Dynasty, there is also Japan... Mongolia, Australia, the South Pacific Islands, Western Europe, and America on this side of the ocean..."

"All of these need to be managed at a faster pace! I'll give myself twenty years!"

"In three years, we will establish the New Ming Dynasty; in one year, we will conquer Japan... and in five years, we will conquer the entire Southeast Asia!"

"Ten years to conquer Europe, fifteen years to conquer America..."

"In twenty years, all the places within sight will become the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Do you think... time is tight?"

This was the first time that Zhu Houzhao told the current important officials of the Presidential Palace about his grand plan, because he was afraid that if he didn't tell them, these people would not be able to keep up with his ideas and pace.

This is very likely to slow down his pace of unifying the world.

"And to conquer these places, we need to build railways..."

"If we calculate 10,000 miles per year, there must be at least a million miles of railways..."

"And the laying of telegraphs..."

"All of this takes time. Do you think I am still radical?"

"And... such a large area, is it enough for us to occupy it with only the population of 50 to 60 million in the Ming Dynasty?"

"Do you know? Just in France, Taizu and Taizong all said that in the future, the population will be 30 million..."

"And here in Great Russia, the population is also 30 million..."

"There's no need to talk about America, 700 to 800 million..."

Zhu Houzhao also opened the eyes of this group of people again, and even listed the current basic situation of the Ming Dynasty. It was basically known that the population was 60 million. Compared with what was discussed in the chat group later, it was obviously not enough for a country to have a population of 30 to 40 million.

"Stop staring at our little piece of land in Daming!"

"I am now asking... within three years, all the 50 to 60 million people in my Great Ming can live a life of luxury. Then, I can sweep the world with the might of my Great Ming!"

"This is my simple idea..."

"As for those who enriched themselves and committed corruption and abuse of power..."

"I will send the Royal Guards to record what they did and make a list later..."

"As for the problem that you are worried about, Li Shan, that we cannot digest so many supplies, I will solve it later..."

"Anyway, don't worry about anything now! Just focus on consuming all these supplies for me first!"

This small part of Zhu Houzhao's showdown can be regarded as a reshaping of the three views of these old bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty, and it also made them experience the shock that Zhu Houzhao received in the American chat group.

Only at this time did they realize how insignificant they were compared to Zhu Houzhao's grand ambitions.

Zhu Houzhao's global vision naturally shocked them.

Although they still wanted to say something, everything seemed pale and powerless under the unlimited support of massive supplies.

What were the problems that plagued the development of the Central Plains dynasties?
Why couldn’t the Central Plains dynasty rule the whole world?

there are many reasons.

But it all comes down to two points.

The first thing is a ruler with a global vision and global perspective.

Secondly, it is material logistics.

Now the Ming Dynasty has both of these points.

What else is missing...

"Huh, now I know how great your majesty's ambition is!"

"No, it should be because of how difficult the mission given to Your Majesty by your ancestors is..."

"No wonder our ancestors support Your Majesty so much!"

After Zhu Houzhao finished the class, he left, leaving Zhu Youlang and other core members to digest the lesson for a long time before they came to their senses.

"Mr. President, I feel that the current constraints on the Ming Dynasty's development in the direction that our ancestors wanted..."

"It's us..."

Lin Han took a deep breath and said, "We must have enough people to keep up with His Majesty."

Yes!

The two important factors for the Central Plains dynasty to rule the world were solved.

Then the most critical basic factor is still missing: a large number of executors.

Otherwise, the first two points are just fantasies built on castles in the air.

"Your Majesty wants to use Jinling for experiments first... to train a large number of people first..."

"Then use the railway to connect the capital and Chang'an..."

"Use telegraph to establish communication between the capital, Chang'an, and Jinling..."

"Use the construction experience of Jinling to drive the capital and Chang'an to become the new Jinling..."

"Use these three places to radiate the whole country..."

Li Shan now has a more or less understanding of Zhu Houzhao's national layout. These are all theoretical guidance with a practical basis that they obtained after their practice in Nanjing.

"If this is accomplished, Your Majesty will probably be greater than the First Emperor..."

"And as long as we assist His Majesty in completing this great cause, no, as long as we complete half of it, we will all go down in history, right?"

Huang Bao also understood the great cause that Zhu Houzhao wanted to accomplish, and this time, his voice trembled a little.

Because the path Zhu Houzhao described for them was an unprecedented path for the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, based on the tip of the iceberg they have accessed so far, the vast amount of materials alone only needs to be used reasonably and scientifically.

This great cause will be half accomplished.

This has another meaning for their careers.

"No wonder His Majesty doesn't like Liu Daxia..."

"I heard that Liu Daxia still wants to rely on Yang Shen to clear His Majesty's name..."

"How could His Majesty care about him? His Majesty doesn't need these empty names at all now!"

At this moment, Liu Zhong also felt that his ability to enter the core made him fundamentally different from old guys like Liu Daxia who could not see the future clearly.

"Okay, everyone..."

"I hope that everyone, after His Majesty has expressed his true feelings this time..."

"Take good note of His Majesty's intentions and truly follow His Majesty's footsteps."

"As for others who want to stop Your Majesty, they will all be stumbling blocks to us..."

"We have to use some radical measures, too."

Zhu Youqiang set the tone for this short meeting to unify thoughts and action goals.
