Prince of Chaos

Chapter 580 A Golden Road

The reform of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been implemented, but it may take a certain amount of time for it to be implemented.

After all, no matter how comprehensively the policies formulated in the court are considered, when they are implemented below, there will always be deviations and problems of varying degrees.

This is like a famous saying in later generations: There are policies above, and countermeasures below.

Therefore, in order to prevent such a situation from spreading, the cabinet, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Ministry of Officials will appear extremely busy for a period of time thereafter.

They have to wait and prevent the emergence of these deviations and problems, and these are the key targets of this reform of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Otherwise, the imperial court only cares about the formulation and release of policies, regardless of implementation and revision.

If things go on like this, the prestige of the imperial court will be weakened to varying degrees in different places.

And this is definitely not good news for a centralized feudal monarchy.

Zhu Changluo is also very concerned about this.

After all, this is the first time since he took office that he has enacted policy reforms involving the whole country.

The success or failure of this reform will also be directly related to whether Zhu Changluo's future power will be consolidated and stable.

Therefore, no matter what, Zhu Changluo must strictly watch the cabinet, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Officials to implement the reform of the Metropolitan Procuratorate's supervision system meticulously.

And at the time when the government and the opposition were working together to reform the Metropolitan Procuratorate, an exciting piece of good news came from Xishan Huangzhuang!
After many years, the Jingning cement road, which is more than 2000 miles long, is finally going to be fully connected.

With the penetration of this hardened cement road, not only can the remote northwest region be more closely connected with the inland region in terms of economic and cultural exchanges.

It is also of great significance in the military!
Once there are wars and enemies in the nine border towns along the way, the deployment and support of information and troops will be faster and faster than before!
It can be said that with this road, another Great Wall was built without hesitation.

However, the cost of this road is definitely lower than that of the Great Wall, and the effect is even greater!

This will make Daming's journey to the west more smooth in the future, and maybe in the future, Daming will also spread the arms of the empire like Han Wu did, and spread the influence of the Han people on the world to the Western Regions and even further afield!
Moreover, because of the connection of this hardened cement road, those noble families and wealthy businessmen in the capital who have been doing business in Ningxia are also celebrating each other!

Because, this road runs through to them, it is like a golden road!They can transport more and more rare products from the northwest region to the capital through this road faster, and then sell them to various places in Ming Dynasty, earning a lot of money in return.

It can be said that through the connection of this road, the benefits brought are innumerable.

Anyone who participates in it can get a big piece of it!
Among them, the one who earns more is Xishan Huangzhuang.

"Chang Luo, I heard that the cement road in Jingning has also been repaired. What are you going to do?"

Emperor Wanli held half a bottle of sparkling water in his hand, and his eyes were shining brightly.

Apparently, he had come up with the idea of ​​this road again.

In recent years, the cement road in the west of Beijing has been expanded and wider, and the tolls have also been charged more and more, just like a cornucopia that will produce money.

Therefore, over the years, Emperor Wanli has become more and more concerned about making money by building roads.

If it weren't for the productivity that limited the speed of development, Emperor Wanli would have liked to build this kind of concrete hardened road that can make money for a fee in the whole of Ming Dynasty.

As soon as Zhu Changluo heard what Emperor Wanli said, he knew what he was thinking.

Zhu Changluo smiled and said: "Father, don't worry, this road was built by our West Mountain Huangzhuang, and the purpose is to use the gold mine in Niutougou, Ningxia. Therefore, this road is of course our own road. If anyone wants to work on this road in the future The road merchants must pay the same as the Beijing West Cement Road to use it."

Emperor Wanli was so happy to hear Zhu Changluo's answer!
It literally spoke to his heart.

Emperor Wanli bared his teeth and smiled, "That's right, our Xishan Huangzhuang family has a great business, and there are many people to support, so we should collect some money for building a road."

At this time, Emperor Wanli didn't look like an emperor who thought about the country at all. He only thought about his own interests.

However, Zhu Changluo would not complain about Emperor Wanli's consciousness.

After all, such a hardened concrete road, which costs a lot of money and needs frequent maintenance, is really expensive.If you can't make money this way.

In the future, how can you fool those rich and big households to obediently spend their money to support Daming's infrastructure construction?
So toll roads are definitely a positive cycle.

If there is only no return on investment, it will ruin the momentum of infrastructure construction that has been built with great difficulty.

Zhu Changluo said: "Father, I am going to set up a special management organization for this Jingning cement road. I have already thought of the name, and it will be called Daming Northwest Highway Bureau!"

"The Highway Bureau will be responsible for the toll collection, maintenance, management, and road development planning of the newly built cement road. The remaining silver every year will also be sent to the royal father's internal funds for safekeeping."

Emperor Wanli was very happy to hear that.

Emperor Wanli said: "Don't let the internal money go, put it in our Daming Royal Bank, and you can earn some interest. Putting the internal money in addition to taking up space, it won't generate a penny, so it's not worthwhile."

The current Emperor Wanli is very financially conscious, and he already knows how to use bank deposits to make money.

It can be seen how competent Emperor Wanli, the "honorary" president of the Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty, did.

They all began to lead by example and support the development of Daming Royal Bank.

However, even so.

Right now, the influence of the Daming Royal Bank is not very great. So far, apart from being invincible within the Xishan Huangzhuang, the influence of the Daming Royal Bank is still very average in the entire capital.

Many people still traditionally think that Daming Royal Bank is just a bank with a certain background.

Therefore, these old-fashioned people, they still prefer to bury their silver in the dark cellar of their own homes to feel at ease.

However, Zhu Changluo is not worried that these people can accept the changes and differences brought about by Daming Royal Bank in a very short period of time.

After all, it has been less than a year since Daming Royal Bank was established, and in such a short period of time, it is delusional to make everyone believe in the strength of the bank, that is a fool who does not respect facts and objective laws.

But now, what Zhu Changluo has to do is to use the subtle influence of time to steadily increase the wealth of those who believe in the strength of the Daming Royal Bank on the books, so as to stimulate those who still keep their money in the cellar.
