Wang Hai put down the purple clay pot and looked at him with bright eyes: "Both of these difficulties are easy to solve! This time the imperial court asked Jiangsu Province to vigorously implement the policy of changing rice to mulberry in order to solve the problem of insufficient raw silk production! As for weaving,
The problem of insufficient number of looms is even easier to solve. Just find someone to make the looms immediately!"
Song Changji pondered for a moment, and a new idea immediately came to his mind.
"I would like to ask my father-in-law, is this policy of converting rice into mulberry only implemented in Jiangsu, or should it be implemented in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces together?"
"Originally, according to the wishes of the imperial court, it was to be implemented in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces together. However, Liu Mingju, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang and the governor of Zhejiang, was like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard, and was unwilling to do this! So,
The focus of this matter falls on Jiangsu!"
"So what if Liu Mingju is the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang and the governor of Zhejiang? How dare he disobey the imperial court's orders!"
"What do you know! Liu Mingju shoulders the important task of guarding the southeast and fighting against Japanese pirates! In the past six months, the Japanese pirates have disappeared a lot, and this is all the credit of Liu Mingju! If Liu Mingju is captured, who will be able to guard the southeast?!"
At this point, Wang Hai cupped his hands in the direction of the capital and said loudly: "The emperor has a golden saying: Da Ning cannot live without the southeast for a day, and the southeast cannot live without Liu Mingju for a day! Liu Mingju is a pillar of the southeast! As long as the Japanese pirates are not defeated.
,Who dares to touch him?!"
Song Changji remained silent as he understood the underlying meaning of Wang Hai's words.
Now that the southeast is not at peace, even if Liu Mingju disobeys the imperial court, the imperial court will not touch him.
But if one day, the Japanese pirates are completely wiped out, and Liu Mingju no longer needs to be in charge of Southeast Asia, will it happen that "the cunning rabbit dies and the lackeys cook"?
Then, he thought of himself again.
Now, he is serving as an emperor and is useful to the court, so Wang Hai will protect him vigorously. But if one day, he is no longer of use to the court, will Wang Hai still protect him?
Even Wang Hai's position is not unbreakable!
However, now is not the time to think so far ahead. The most urgent task is how to handle the emperor's mission in front of us!
Exhaling slightly, he said: "One million bolts of silk requires a huge amount of raw silk! I'm afraid it will be difficult for Jiangsu Province to supply it with our own strength!"
"You don't need to worry about raw silk, Zhou Changmin will take care of it!"
"As far as I know, Mr. Zhou doesn't seem to support the policy of changing rice to mulberry!"
"Hmph, it doesn't matter if he supports it or not! This time, I'm afraid he won't be able to help me!"
Wang Hai said with a sneer.
"how do I say this?"
"Zhou Changmin came to Beijing this time. In order to seek the position of Minister of Rites, he spent a lot of time jumping up and down! Now, the court has given him a test question! If he can carry out the policy of changing rice to mulberry, he can deliver it as scheduled.
With those one million pieces of silk, it would be a natural thing for him to go to Beijing to take up his new post, or even to enter the cabinet! But if he fails to handle this matter well, let alone go to Beijing to take up his new post, will he be able to keep his hat?
It’s hard to say!”
Although Song Changji was not a member of the officialdom, he knew all about these things in the officialdom. He naturally understood the meaning of Wang Hai's words. While he was worried about Zhou Changmin, he was also worried about himself.
sweat!
Needless to say, Zhou Changmin has fallen into the whirlpool, but why hasn't he fallen into the whirlpool?
If you are not careful at all, it will end up being shattered to pieces!
Wang Hai could tell at a glance what Song Changji was worried about. Although he looked down on Song Changji's cautious appearance, now was the time when Song Changji needed to show his strength, so he had to comfort Song Changji to prevent this kid from being half-hearted.
Something bad happened!
"Changji, you don't have to worry about anything. Zhou Changmin will take care of the matter of raw silk. If he doesn't do it, the court will pressure him! You just have to do what you should do, even if something happens
No matter what, I can’t even hit you with a stick!”
Wang Hai said leisurely. This chapter has been completed!
