Chapter 68: Money-Opening Plan
King Liao gritted his teeth and looked at his beloved Concubine Dong on the ground. He secretly swore in his heart that one day he would let the twenty-year-old experience the same pain as himself!
"Stwenty, please wait for me! You wait... Didn't you just marry a wife? You wait!"
...
Half a month later, the emperor's imperial edict that rebuked King Han arrived in Kaiyuan.
The imperial edict scolded King Han, who helped his brother to be accomplices of the tiger, and despised the lives of the people. Anyway, it was so ugly that it was said.
However, King Han knelt on the ground and listened to these words, his heart was filled with no turmoil. Not only was there no turmoil, but he was also a little secretly happy.
The old man scolded himself, which was actually a good thing, which made King Han suddenly jump out of the big guy's eyes, no longer have to be roasted on the fire, and be watched by so many people in circles.
Zhu Song has a lot to do. This kind of corn planting requires people to find the whereabouts of sweet potatoes and potatoes. In addition, he also needs to expand Kaiyuan's city defense and expand Kaiyuan City a little further.
Although Kaiyuan is fertile, it is not all plains. Grain is planted on both sides of the West Gate Road in Kaiyuan City, but the east gate is a small hill, where the Jurchens hunt.
To the north of Kaiyuan City are pastures, where the herders rely on for survival cannot move, but there are more plains to the north of this pasture. If those plains have been abandoned, it would be a waste of resources.
But if you want to waste natural resources and waste such good land, you have to think of a way.
What should I think of? At least I need to increase the output of grain so that all civil and military officials and the people in the world can see that they have a way to plant fertile food from these lands.
Then I licked my face and asked the old man to ask the Songnen Plain in the north and build several small town fortresses in the north to protect it. I think the old man would not disagree.
All civil and military officials have to look forward to it. The old man gave himself the land. This matter is very serious and he is anxious and cannot be delayed for too long.
The old man's health has long been worse than before. If Jianwen comes up and then studies the land and asks for land, it would probably not be so easy. Who knows if something goes wrong after so long?
After the father-in-law who announced the edict finished reading, Zhu Song took over the edict and asked the princess to give some silver to these father-in-laws as usual.
Sometimes this is the case with human feelings. Although a group of eunuchs are not very capable as slaves, sometimes some key news can only be provided by these people. Then the eunuch in the Fourth Brother Palace may not be the same.
Zhu Song was stunned when he thought of this, and a person's name appeared in his mind.
The eunuch Wang Jinghong was an internal official next to the old man, and later Zheng He went to the West, and he was the deputy envoy of the treasure fleet!
Zhu Song suddenly understood everything, no wonder! No wonder he always felt that the name Wang Jinghong always looked familiar. It turned out that this was the case.
Zhu Song took the imperial edict and returned to the hall. Old Cao saw that Zhu Song seemed to be thinking about something, so he asked.
"What happened to Your Highness? Is it because of this imperial edict?"
After hearing this, Zhu Song laughed: "How is it possible? This imperial edict is too time to come. I am not too happy yet, so how could I get angry?"
"I just suddenly realized something just now, and suddenly realized. Lao Cao, this way of inquiring about news and eyeliner is sometimes really important."
Lao Cao nodded in agreement: "Your Highness is right. Sometimes a good news can achieve twice the result with half the effort. If you don't say anything else, take the Jinyiwei as an example. When Your Majesty founded the Jinyiwei, all the civil and military officials in the world opposed it!"
"The people who opposed it at the time also included the lower officials. The lower officials felt that the conduct of supervising all officials was only done by an emperor who was inappropriate in his position like Wu Zhou."
"Later, all kinds of things were found out, and the lower official felt that the emperor's move was simply too wise!"
"Why did Your Highness talk about this?"
Zhu Song touched the jade ring on his finger.
"I am wondering, when can we also get some people like this specifically used to inquire about information, and it is really difficult to guess and touch everywhere."
After stopping, Lao Cao was startled and said quickly: "Your Highness, you must not think so, nor must you do that. The Jinyiwei is only commanded by the emperor."
"The Emperor has the final say whether the Jinyiwei is to stay or use it. If Your Highness sets up a small Jinyiwei in Kaiyuan, then the people of our entire Kaiyuan City will not have to live!"
After hearing this, Zhu Song laughed: "Old Cao, what are you thinking? When did I say I want to build a small Jinyiwei in our Kaiyuan?"
"I will never touch the Jinyiwei. I have only a few officials and generals under my command. Who will be the Jinyiwei supervising?"
"Besides, there are many officials who are crying by the Jinyiwei, but when did you see the Jinyiwei make the people cry?"
After hearing this, Lao Cao nodded: "Your Highness is right. There are many officials who have been crying by the Jinyiwei. The Jinyiwei has never been embarrassed by the people. Since your highness does not want to get involved in the Jinyiwei, what should your highness do?"
Zhu Song always believed that being able to drive a person who has nothing to do with him will always have only benefits. Only by feeding these guys can those guys be willing to do things for him!
Similarly, the news is the same. Only money can open the way and the news can be circulated more quickly. Of course, the best thing is to be more concealed as much as possible, so that everyone knows that the dignified King of Han actually has a spy similar to the Jinyiwei, which is not good.
"I have an idea, but it is just a prototype at best. To put it bluntly, this is to make the goods flow. As long as the goods move, the money will come naturally."
"Isn't there a saying? Let's turn soil into treasures. If our fertile land in Liaodong is obtained in some barren and bitter and cold land, it will turn soil into treasures."
"So I think if I can take the lead and let our merchants in Liaodong stop staying at home and walk as far as possible, just like those Hu merchants, they are going to come to my Ming Dynasty for a long time. Isn't it still possible to make money if they run far away? Otherwise, who will be displaced?"
