I am the king of the dead

Chapter 255

Xining, Xiao Tian'er and Kong Yanjin all have common characteristics. They are all greedy and corrupt, and the moths of Ming Dynasty. They all have secrets, and they hope to live by it.

But Zhu Qiyu just didn't give them a chance. As Daming's benevolent father, he was responsible for sending them to see Taizu Emperor Gao.

Don't tell me, I can check it myself.

Without these things, it is really important to Zhu Qiyu, so don't worry.

Zhu Qiyu finished the memorabilia handed over by Lu Zhong, opened it for a long time and said: "Although Kong Yanjin didn't say anything, it doesn't mean that Daming can't find out. Very good, just leave this matter to Li Binyan."

Lu Zhong hesitated for a while and said: "Your Majesty Li Yushi has just recovered from a serious illness, and now he is going to investigate such crucial matters. Is it difficult for him?"

Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said: "Let him check it out and try, if it doesn't work, then send Tiqi."

Check what?Cha Kong Yanjin's overseas silver market.

Lu Zhong is very capable, wherever Zhu Qiyu's sword is pointed, Lu Zhong can find out.

There is a small island off the coast of Jiaozhou Bay, called Jiming Island. This island is less than ten miles away from Jiaozhou Bay, but the exact location and how to get there by ferry are unknown.

Jiming Island was the last stop for the Confucian government's overseas Japanese silver to enter the Ming Dynasty.

How did Lu Zhong find out about this island without a confession?

In the field records of the Confucian Mansion, there is a grain rent for eight hectares of land, which has appeared over the years, but the specific location of the eight hectares of land has never been found.

In the end, Lu Zhong finally confirmed the existence of this island after repeated investigations of more than a hundred people in the Confucian residence. Kong Yanjin bit his tongue when he heard Lu Zhong's question about the island.

Tongue biting cannot kill itself, but it can keep a secret.

Eight hectares of land, [-] mu of land, and grain rent per mu count as five buckets, but it is only forty shi per year. After rummaging through boxes and cabinets, I finally confirmed the real existence of this island.

"Very good, go to the internal transport warehouse to get five thousand silver coins, and give them to the Tiqi of Jinyiwei, thank you." Zhu Qiyu put away the case.

Lu Zhong bowed his head and shouted loudly: "Work hard for His Majesty!"

Lu Zhong didn't care much about the [-] silver coins, the commander's salary was enough to spend, and His Majesty didn't wear more than eight suits a year, so his life was not extravagant, he lived in an official residence, and his life was more secure.

This sentence of hard work is the greatest affirmation of the busyness of Lu Zhong and Jin Yiwei Qianhu during this time.

Lu Zhong bowed his head and left. During this period of time, Jinyiwei's yamen was busy up and down, and finally he stripped away all the filth inside and out of the Confucian mansion.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the back of Lu Zhong leaving, sat up straight, and began to process the memorial.

There is Emperor Cizongwen who turned the tide; there is also a good man named Xunzong who collects and distributes medals everywhere. He lives by himself and lets others live.

Among them is Su Suizong, Maize Xiaofu who is hated by everyone.

Corn Xiaofu's life was criticized and cast aside by everyone, and no one liked him.

Maize Xiaofu devoted his whole life to agricultural reform, industrial reform, anti-bureaucratic privileges, improving the level of the people, etc. He himself was very honest, and he even handed over all his public and private gifts to the public.

Why was Corn Xiaofu's life spurned by everyone?

Corn Xiaofu is committed to improving domestic living standards. Why do even the Soviets scold him?
Because he is reforming.

The reason why he was forced to step down was that he was too capable of tossing around, and he was not a day-to-day person.

Corn Xiaofu's reforms finally touched the immovable cake, the power of cadres.

So Corn Xiaofu resigned sadly, and thousands of people reviled him.

The Soviet is so powerful, why do you want to change it?

The Soviets are so powerful, why do you continue to perpetuate the benevolent style of a loving father?

The Soviets are so powerful, so what if we take a little bit!
Daming is so powerful that it can resist the four disasters of the monarch, the captives, the relocation, and the party. Is Daming not strong enough?extremely powerful.

The Ming Dynasty is so powerful, why did you, the Great Emperor, reform and implement the New Deal?Why can't the great emperor be more gentle and responsible to the bureaucrats?Why can't His Majesty the Emperor let people do something about it?

Be a hello, me, everyone's day, isn't it good?

Not good, because if Zhu Qiyu was a normal person, he would be dead, physically dead.

Emperor Wanli could be a man of life, not going to court for 30 years, and even a member of the six ministries of county and prefecture governments across the country, Daming can still fool around.

But Zhu Qiyu couldn't do it, he couldn't retreat, there was an abyss behind him.

Zhu Qiyu didn't want to be the Xunzong, although he was awarded many medals, he was even more unwilling to be the corn Xiaofu, who gave up his name all his life, but in the end he left a mark of meanness and ungratefulness.

There is only one way for Zhu Qiyu to go, and that is to be a kind father of Ming Dynasty.

Why did Ming Dynasty firmly implement the sea ban policy, but still so much silver flowed in?It can even support a whip method, and Zhengfu, Zili Tianmu, and Yangma weaving silver are all converted into silver?

Even in the Qing Dynasty, if the piece of armor does not go to the sea, can silver be used as the main currency in this land?There are not many silver mines in this land, and the silver mines in the Ming Dynasty are less than 10 taels a year.

Why is there such a continuous inflow of silver?Who is doing this business?

At this time, Zhu Qiyu finally touched the eyes of the nobles, nobles, and kings of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the banned maritime trade.

Another piece of sky in Daming, they are airtight, close, and very tacitly combined together.

Zhu Qiyu approved the memorial, which determined the future direction of the Ming Dynasty. He approved a memorial by Li Binyan. Li Binyan asked for [-] Beijing battalions to be stationed in Mizhou Shipping Division, and they would take turns every three years.

Zhu Qiyu selected a general and took the [-] regular army and [-] engineering battalion to Mizhou Shipping Department.

There are also countless nautical materials in the library behind the Tai'an Palace Imperial Study Room, which were brought to Mizhou Shipping Department together.

Mizhou Shipping Department is a window that Zhu Qiyu strives to open to the sea. If this window is opened well, it will be able to open the door in the future.

Does this window open well?
Then open another one.

Li Binyan has already arrived in Jiaozhou, supervising the Mizhou Shipping Department, which recruited civilians to establish Jiaozhou merchant ships and tribute ships.

Rows of warehouses are being built, bluestone seawalls are being erected on the coastline, a wharf that can accommodate eight Fuchuan loading and unloading is being built, and a large shipyard is being completed. The official road from Jiaozhou to Mizhou Also leveling.

Jiaozhou Bay is full of Ming craftsmen and Lifus busy and busy.

Daming has a wealth of experience in the construction of the Shibo Department. After all, Emperor Taizu Gao was in the tribute trade, and Emperor Taizong Wen simply sent an invincible fleet to open up the sea route to the West.

Of course, after this air route was opened up for operation, the fruits of victory were ruthlessly harvested.

The bluestone seawall is in the shape of a circle. When a wave rushes into the seawall, the wave will circle and hit another incoming wave, reducing the damage of the seawall to the seawall.

This is the method sent to the capital by Xu Youzhen, the censor who patrols the river, and Chen Yi, the censor who patrols the river. Finally, it was quickly approved and sent to Jiaozhou Bay.

Xu Youzhen is good at water control. He has a very high talent for water conservancy projects. The convoluted design can effectively reduce the maintenance of the seawall by the Shipbuilding Department.

Xu Youzhen's water control effect in Zhang Qiu is excellent, Xu Youzhen has already played, and wants to return to the court.

A mature port will attract countless merchant ships, which is inevitable.

As long as you are willing to pay taxes, private sea trade is allowed. In Mizhou Shipping Department, you can get merchant ships to survey and cooperate, you can operate legally, you can supply water and food, you can trade goods, and you will not be sunk by the Ming Navy in the future. Wait for convenience.

All the benefits, all as long as you are willing to pay taxes, you can get it.

Zhu Qiyu is a very fair person. He can allow him to make a fortune, but he must pay the tax.

If you don't pay taxes, you are not a Daming person.

Of course, the shipbuilding department established by the Ming court could not be like the privately established shipbuilding department of the Confucian government, setting up a grass-roots team and finding a group of people to unload and load ships in a sneaky way.

Secretly setting up a city ship privately can't get on the stage, so naturally you can't make big construction projects, you can only do things hastily.

However, the government-run municipal shipping company will naturally invest a lot, and will naturally do a lot of construction.

Moreover, this is His Majesty's new government, of course it must be taken seriously.

Li Binyan stood on the official road at the wharf in Jiaozhou Bay, waiting anxiously. He invited [-] troops from Beijing to station in Jiaozhou Bay.

After collecting the tax, it is natural to provide all security guarantees in Jiaozhou Bay. Of the 3 Beijing camps, 1 are garrisoned by the city's shipping department army, and [-] are engineering battalions responsible for construction.

It is not only to guard against the well-known thieves in Shandong and rob the Shibo Division.

It is also necessary to build a new Daming navy to protect those merchant ships who do not want to pay taxes, and come to the Mizhou Ship Department to pay taxes and taxes.

Just like Wuqing Marquis Shiheng Shi Zongbing did in Datong Mansion to protect those passing merchants who do not want to pay taxes, and pay protection fees according to the rules while not being robbed by horse bandits.

Li Binyan finally got the banner of the Jingying army, and he can be regarded as Li Binyan's old acquaintance in the capital. At the beginning of the battle of the capital, Tao Jin, the general of the nine gates guarding the Andingmen, Li Binyan was the military counselor of Tao Jin at the Andingmen. Although the Andingmen was not attacked , but there are still spies.

Li Binyan's top card was obtained through shit luck when he was a military counselor.

Tao Jin later fought to the death as Shi Heng's lieutenant general in Qingfengdian, and then recaptured the prisoner who also plundered people and animals first. After the battle of the capital, Tao Jin was promoted to command Tongzhi.

Before the battle of the capital, Tao Jin was the governor, leading the sentry at Baiyangkou, and fought against the Tatars and Oirats for a long time.

The Jiaozhou Bay port of the Mizhou Shipping Department is under construction, and the army has found a suitable place to camp, while Tao Jin and Li Binyan are handing over various ship documents of the Ming Dynasty.

There are as many as two carriages.

After Li Binyan put the carriages back in place, he opened the sealed bookcases on the carriages one by one. Oceans Leading the Stars Map", "Needle Road Navigation Map", "Sea Ship Armament Map", etc., all appear in the form of pictures and texts.

Li Binyan flipped through it. People are stupid. He doesn't understand this at all. Could it be that he has to learn it from scratch?

This trip to Shandong had exhausted Li Binyan enough, and now he still needs to study?learn a...

After thinking about it, Li Binyan decided to study, after all, it was the emperor's order.

Tang Xing looked at Li Binyan scratching his head cheerfully, this box after box of books really could bear the words "Qingjing Haoshou", anyway, Tang Xing felt that after reading so many books, people would be dizzy.

Li Binyan is from Shaanxi. He doesn't understand maritime trade, and he has no impression or concept of these things. It is quite difficult to learn.

But then don't you learn it?
Tang Xing opened Jin Yiwei's secret letter, and translated the Yin text into Yang text, and then translated it into the main text, he said in amazement: "Your Majesty has issued a secret decree."

"Let you look up a place called Jiming Island, which is the last stop of the Confucian government's Japanese silver entering the Ming Dynasty. Let's ask the nearby fishermen if they know this place. It's a great achievement. Li Yushi is busy with the books first. , I’m going to inquire about the news.”

Li Binyan sat on the stool, looked at the books in three or four rooms, and sighed heavily. He suddenly remembered the days when he was studying hard in the cold window before being a Jinshi. Those years were hidden deep in his memory.

Now it's time to start reading again.

He picked up a book, flipped through it, suddenly raised his head, and frowned.

"This is actually an engraved book!"

Although Li Binyan was straightforward, he was not a fool, and a fool would not be able to win the Jinshi and rank, not to mention the examination, even the provincial examination.

These books and pictures are all engraved and printed, which proves that His Majesty's matter of maritime trade was not a temporary idea, nor did he start to pay attention to it after the Confucian Mansion case!
His Majesty the Great Emperor obviously had prepared for it long ago, but it was just the Tianzi No. [-] case, the Confucian government's connection with the Japanese case, and His Majesty just pushed the boat along.

Therefore, the Confucian Mansion was still a big fish caught by His Majesty, and because of this, he made a nest.

If so many books are made into engraving blocks and then printed, it will take more than a year's work?

Could it be that His Majesty has been thinking about the issue of maritime trade since before the Battle of the Capital?
This discovery made Li Binyan take a deep breath. The job of the Mizhou Shipping Department should not only be done, but also done well!
Li Binyan has read books for a long time. Apart from construction, he has been working hard to learn about sailing.

Tang Xing found Li Binyan who was patrolling the seawall, and said in a low voice, "I found Jiming Island, and there are Japanese pirates on the island."

"Japanese pirates!" Li Binyan's eyes lit up instantly, it's a credit!
Li Binyan stood up, and said excitedly: "Don't act rashly, find out the situation from the fishermen first, how many are there? Do they have armor, firecrackers, cannons, etc.? Then send a boat to clear the terrain of Jiming Island." Clear, look for an easy landing."

"Catch them all! Don't leave a single one!"

"You go to Commander Tao, the number of Jinyiwei is too small, we need the support of the regiment, this matter is confidential."

Tang Xing nodded, and in less than two days, he had a clear understanding of the whole island.

Tao Jin, Tang Xing, and Li Binyan looked at the small Jiming Island and frowned. It wasn't that there were many pirates and it was difficult to deal with it, but that there were more than 300 Ming people on the island.

"We must kill them all before the Japanese pirates react."
