Chapter 610

Yu Qian came very quickly. He sat down after entering the door to greet him. He didn't express his opinion immediately, but drank a cup of tea first.

Zhu Qiyu expressed the doubts in his heart.

"Your Majesty's question is, can Daming afford the cost of fighting on two fronts? The minister's answer is yes, and Daming's answer is also yes. Because this was the case during the Yongle period, the five expeditions to Mobei and the southward voyage to the West were carried out at the same time." Yu Qian Back to His Majesty's question, His Majesty's concern is nothing more than whether Da Ming can undertake the decision-making level's two-front battle plan.

In the 20 years of Yongle, he conquered Mobei five times, and Haohao went to the West in soup, all of which were done.

"Actually, Your Majesty, it doesn't matter which one you choose." Yu Qian said his usual lines again.

At some point, Yu Qian thought that His Majesty was too cautious, especially when it came to the word people's livelihood, he just walked on thin ice, and even looked forward and backward.

This is not the first time Yu Qian has felt this way.

Zhu Qiyu leaned on the soft rattan chair, and said with emotion: "Xing, the people suffer, and death, the people suffer. In the end, the people are the price."

Yu Qian said sincerely: "Your Majesty's thought of living beings is the blessing of all people in the world."

"Your Majesty is in the prime of his life, so you can do it if you want to, and it's okay if you don't want to."

Just like before His Majesty wanted to stand up, Yu Qian's attitude is like this, His Majesty can do it or not.

Because His Majesty was in the prime of life and not very old, even if a prime minister is established, His Majesty will abolish the Prime Minister when Yu Qian dies in the future.

So in Yu Qian's view, Ming Dynasty can fully undertake the two-front battle of land expansion and sea route expansion. It is not impossible to want both, and to do both well.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said: "Xing'an, make an order."

Zhu Qiyu wants to expand the army, to be precise, build warships, train more sailors, and escort the Daming sea route.

Within the territory of the Ming Dynasty, strictly promote the Labor Insurance Bureau to ensure labor remuneration and labor enthusiasm, and produce more commodities; on sea routes, regularly clear up pirates and dredge sea routes to ensure that commodities can reach various ports safely;
Now there is only the last crucial link left in sea trade, the port.

The sea trade has never been gentle and courteous, the sea trade has always been full of blood and killings, the crews who live at sea, how many desperadoes.

At sea, you will die if the ship capsizes, you will die if you encounter pirates, you will die if you lose, you will die if you fight within, and you will die if you are intercepted and robbed by the natives. The cramped ship intensifies the violence of the crew.

It is one of Zhu Qiyu's jobs to ensure the smooth trade of the Daming Fleet at the port.

"The experience in chicken cage development is worthy of recognition. It is a good idea for the Penghu Inspection Department to be an outpost."

"I plan to let Yuan Bin operate well, and turn Nambakyo into the Osaka City Shipping Department of Ming Dynasty. There are 2000 soldiers stationed permanently, and a patrol inspection department is set up to inspect ships. Bureau and Banknote Bureau are in charge of accepting the Banknote Law, and set up five city soldiers and horses to ensure the safety of the Shibo Division and the normal progress of the Ming Dynasty's merchant trade." Zhu Qiyu asked Xing'an to bring a map.

On this Kanyu map, Zhu Qiyu circled several places with a Zhu pen.

The first one is the port of Osaka in the country of Wa, which is a natural good port, the gateway to Kyoto of the country of Wa, and the place where the merchants of the Ming Dynasty are most densely populated.

The second location is Jeju Island in North Korea, a very critical location on Jeju Island.

From Jiaozhou Bay in Mizhou to Jeju Island, then from Jeju Island to Tsushima Island, and from Tsushima Island to Wa Kingdom, this is a sea route, and it is also a military route. That is.

The third location is Naha Port in Ryukyu. This is the port where the Ryukyu Kingdom welcomes the angels, and it is also the port of Jinliang for all nations.

After Mizhou Shipping Division was in the city, Uncle Datong, the right governor of the rear military governor's mansion, and Tao Jin, the commander of the Siwu regiment battalion, garrisoned the army.

The Zhangzhou Shipping Department and the port Yuegang in Fujian were established by Ningyang Hou Chenmao after Fujian suppressed the rebellion, and there are still garrisons today.

As for the Ship Division of Ningbo City and the Ship Division of Songjiang City, there are [-] Beijing troops garrisoned by Zhu Qiyu, and Zhoushan, as the base of the Daming Navy, is also the old nest of the Daming Navy.

Zhu Qiyu was not satisfied with the fact that the Shibo Department was limited to managing tribute ships, merchant ships, and collecting points and taxes. The functions of financial affairs such as storage and currency issuance.

As for how to build a port, Zhu Qiyu was already exploring when Li Binyan left Beijing to governor Mizhou.

The road to becoming a king of maritime expansion starts with overseas shipping companies.

Yu Qian looked at the geomancy map seriously.

On this map, there are not only Namba in Japan, Naha Port in Ryukyu, Jeju Island in North Korea, but also Chicken Coop in Jilong Island, Champa Port in Champa, Boni Bay in Borneo, Java, Srivijaya's old port and Sumatra, Ceylon's Hambantota, and even Horumos and the end of the sky.

These are His Majesty's plans for maritime affairs. Although they have not been delimited, they are all in His Majesty's eyes.

"Your Majesty is wise." Knowing His Majesty's ambitions, Yu Qian bowed his head and said, "Let Hu Shangshu communicate with North Korea. I believe the King of North Korea will make the right choice."

"As for the Japanese side, Commander Yuan and others still need the full cooperation."

"The shipping department of Naha City in Ryukyu is the easiest to do."

After repeated discussions between Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian, Daming's road to sea expansion finally took shape, and it was no longer a fantasy like a castle in the air.

Zhu Qiyu stood up, stood in front of Kanyu map, and said loudly: "Overseas market bureaus practice banknotes but not money. Before that, Uncle Mu Yang repeatedly mentioned the outflow of Ming coins. I allow silver and brass to enter. Daming, Jingtai Tongbao and imperial silver coins cannot flow overseas."

Yu Qian said rather disapprovingly: "Your Majesty, the Overseas Maritime Department should be equal to the overseas territory of Daming, and the money law should be followed, and it should be connected with the homeland of Daming. Otherwise, the overseas Maritime Department will prosper today and tomorrow will be bad, and I think it is inappropriate. .”

Zhu Qiyu thought for a moment, but shook his head and received: "What about the outflow of money? I scattered silver coins in Xuanfu Gongshi because I want to fully kingize the Tatars."

"The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It doesn't take ten years for the money laws to be used. These overseas market bureaus will inevitably become kings in a substantial way and ignore the government's orders."

"Military constraints, political constraints, economic constraints, and cultural constraints were the four primary constraints when the road to becoming a king was established. The money law, the important fulcrum of the economic constraints, was abolished. I still think it is appropriate to implement the money law."

"It can not only prevent the outflow of currency, but also increase the strength of economic restraint."

As an emperor, it is a normal worry to worry that Shibosi will not obey the imperial edict, and Yu Qian did not deny His Majesty's thoughts.

Yu Qian bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty's words are reasonable, indeed."

"Overseas shipping companies do not build high-rise buildings on the ground. It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people, and a thousand years to gather energy."

"Your Majesty implements banknote laws in the Overseas Bureau of Shipping. The admiral of the Overseas Bureau of Shipping, the captain of the Five Cities Army and the Chief of the Bureau of Banknotes, no matter how capable he is, isn't he a clever woman who can't cook without rice?"

"Your Majesty, the different stages of Wanghua should also be based on different restraints."

"When the Overseas Maritime Department was first established, it should focus on military affairs, and gradually strengthen economic affairs, political affairs, and cultural affairs, and gradually develop them."

Yu Qian does not object to His Majesty's four major regulatory laws controlling the overseas market department, and even quite agrees with His Majesty. Daming is not doing charity. The establishment of the overseas market department by Daming is to seek the national security of Ming Dynasty and the prosperity of the country and the people.

Yu Qian was just going around in circles to remind His Majesty that meals should be eaten bite by bite.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a long time and said, "It makes sense."

There are still many discussions of this kind, and Xing'an has also seen too many quarrels between His Majesty and Yu Qian, so he doesn't care.

Noisy ones are good, if the left one says Shengming and the right one says His Majesty is right, then there will be big problems for Daming.

The more you argue, the clearer you become.

After Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian had a friendly and peaceful discussion on many matters concerning the Overseas Shipping Department, they finalized the preliminary charter, and then they will send out the shipping department of each major city, including the admiral, the head of the Baoyuan Baochao Bureau, and the five city bureaucrats. The captain of the Bingma Division collected opinions and finally made a decision.

"The plates in Songjiang Mansion are getting bigger and bigger." Zhu Qiyu said, pointing to the location of Songjiang Mansion.

The location of Songjiang Prefecture is really good.

Inside, there are goods from nine inland provinces connected by the Yangtze River waterway, which communicates with most of the Ming Dynasty.

It has only been four years since the establishment of the Shipping Department of Songjiang Prefecture, and its annual tribute has exceeded seven times that of the shipping departments of Mizhou, Ningbo, Zhangzhou and Guangzhou combined.

Zhu Qiyu vigorously clicked on the place of the Guangzhou Shipping Department and said: "I originally planned to let Wang Ao go to Guangdong and Guangxi to serve as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and take charge of the affairs of the Guangzhou Shipping Department. Songjiang Prefecture has achieved today's achievements and development speed with its unique advantages. , and the other place, the Guangzhou Municipal Shipping Department at the Pearl River Estuary should not give up much."

Where there are big rivers, there must be good ports. The Yangtze River Delta economic circle has become a chariot for the Ming economy to take off, and Zhu Qiyu hopes that the Pearl River Delta will become another chariot for the Ming economy.

Because the Guangzhou Shipbuilding Department faces Nanyang directly, and is tolerant of all rivers, just like Songjiang Prefecture, it is uniquely endowed by nature in terms of geographical environment.

"Wang Shangshu, the heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, is exhausted, and the affairs of the Ministry of Officials are all on Wang Ao's body. It is better not to let Wang Ao go." Yu Qian objected to sending Wang Ao, because Wang Ao wanted to be in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Officials.

The Ming Dynasty was still a political structure in which the emperor made decisions and the six ministries discussed specific matters, and there was no essential change. In Yu Qian's view, the stability of the court determined the stability of the Ming Dynasty.

After Jin Lian left, Zhang Feng and Shen Yi of the Ministry of Households, how many disturbances caused by the competition for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Households?Jiang Yuan, the left servant of the Ministry of War, went up and down the position of Minister of the Ministry of War several times.

No matter in terms of virtue, reputation or ability, Wang Ao of the official department met the needs of the official secretary. If he was sent out again, the official department would have to go through a lot of trouble.

The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the examination method and the examination of hundreds of officials in the world. Wang Ao himself is still the first person in charge of anti-corruption and arresting corruption. Wang Ao was also working on the first case in Sichuan. Wang Ao has not been able to leave Beijing for the past few years.

"Then who will go?" Zhu Qiyu looked helplessly at the Guangzhou Municipal Bureau of Shipping on the Kanyu map.

After thinking about it, Yu Qian thought of someone, bowed his head and said, "Why don't we let Chen Ruyan go? There is also Dingxi Marquis Jiang Wanke who can serve as the captain of the Shibo Department. With such a civil and military minister, I think that everything about the Guangzhou Shibo Department can be settled. "

"Chen Aiqing? That's him." Zhu Qiyu nodded in agreement.

Chen Ruyan, the former Minister of the Ministry of War, is now a scholar of the Wenyuan Pavilion. His ability is slightly inferior to Jiang Yuan, the current Minister of the Ministry of War.

From ancient times to the present, how many people can take the initiative to let the virtuous?Can count on one hand.

Chen Ruyan was in troubled times for the country, and at the critical moment when Zhu Qiyu went south to suppress the rebellion, he was able to take the initiative to let the virtuous, put the state affairs first, and it was very precious. He was undoubtedly the best in terms of morality and reputation.

Ever since Chen Ruyan let the virtuous, Zhu Qiyu always referred to this person as Chen Aiqing.

When his follower Zhu Qiyu went south to suppress the rebellion, Chen Ruyan's several remonstrances were well-organized and greatly benefited Ming Dynasty.

In terms of ability, Chen Ruyan just can't be the secretary of the Ministry of War, and he is well-organized when working in Wenyuan Pavilion.

Jiang Wan, Marquis of Dingxi, was seriously injured in order to attack Xuzhou City at the head of Xuzhou City. He recuperated for a year before he recovered, and studied in the martial arts hall for another year.

The state affairs are heavy, Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian discussed for a long time.

Zhu Qiyu said rather worriedly: "The competition for extravagance in Songjiang Mansion has begun to emerge, and life is extravagant."

Yu Qian knew what His Majesty was worried about. Ever since His Majesty took the throne, he was always worried about Daming's atmosphere.

The trend of extravagance and competition in the Ming Dynasty has been discussed many times by His Majesty and Hu Shangshu. It is extremely extreme in Nanya, and Songjiang Mansion, as a place with intensive business transactions and rapid development, has already begun to show signs of competition for luxury. With a little carelessness, the Songjiang Mansion could easily lead the Nanya Mansions to dive all the way and become a moral depression in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qiyu was very worried that Songjiang Mansion would become Edinburgh.

Yu Qian thought carefully for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, you still have to make a southern tour."

From the military point of view of the upcoming expansion of the navy, from the economic point of view of changing every day, from the point of view of the political center of gravity, and from the point of view of cultural atmosphere, His Majesty must make a southern tour to solve these problems in person.

"Sure enough, we still have to tour the south." Zhu Qiyu took Fei Yiying's memorial on the table and said: "As for Fei Yiying, let it go."

Zhu Qiyu finally decided to let Fei Yiying go.

Fei Yiying is a businessman, and it is the nature of a businessman to seek profit, and Fei Yiying is not engaged in debt subprime mortgages, but is only doing equity trading, especially after Zhu Qiyu decided to focus on the sea expansion side, there is no reason to control it .

"Your Majesty let Fei Yiying go, Wei Guogong Xu Chengzong couldn't let him go, I guess he can't take the position of Shang Zong." Yu Qian knew very well about the work style of Daming nobles, no matter whether Fei Yiying offended His Majesty or not, in the end Fei Yiying had to step down from his position as the head of the business.

Zhu Qiyu didn't care about Fei Yiying's fate, looked at Xing'an and asked, "Has the emperor arrived at Daningwei?"
