Chapter 238
Faced with the behavior of Western countries coming to beg to give birth to Zidan, Baozhu expressed her eyes open, thinking that these Westerners don’t need it, but I didn’t expect that even a tall and powerful person would not be able to do it, tsk tsk...

When Kangxi was still alive, Yinzhen was thinking about opening the sea ban. For this reason, he opened a shipyard in Hainan to study new types of sea-going ships. Now it has achieved initial results, and the steam ship in his impression has been successfully researched.

Judging from the official decrees of the Ming Dynasty, the sea ban was the basic national policy of the Ming Dynasty. If we look at it from the standard of "no ban means opening up", only certain periods such as the Hongwu, Yongle, and Jiajing years had sea bans that were repeatedly reiterated.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, it was ordered that the government and the people were prohibited from trading at sea without authorization. If anyone sold prohibited goods to other countries, and colluded with the enemy Zheng Chenggong or manufactured ships and sold them to other countries, the violators would be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for punishment according to the law.The sea ban movement in the Qing Dynasty began in the 12th year of Shunzhi and ended in the 23rd year of Kangxi. Forced by the naval invasion of the Zheng family in Taiwan, passive precautions had to be taken.

In fact, there are not a few Manchu nobles who are engaged in sea trade. Even Baozhu's mother family, the Merdiles, have two large ships, which bring profits to the Merdiles of no less than one million taels every year.However, Baozhu doesn't think that there is no one to block Yinzhen's desire to open the sea ban, on the contrary, most of the courtiers will probably oppose it.

Du Yinzhen naturally knew the situation once, but he didn't expect Baozhu to guess it too. It seems that Baozhu's political acumen has improved a lot over the years.

Sure enough, when Yinzhen mentioned the matter of opening the sea ban, most of the courtiers expressed their disapproval, blah blah blah.

First of all, there are precedents in ancient times, and the legacy policy set by the ancestors cannot be violated.Secondly, the Japanese pirates are ferocious, and if the sea ban is lifted, the people along the coast will be in danger...

Yinzhen just felt that he had heard a lot of nonsense, especially what was the legacy of his ancestors. Their ancestors were still on the side of Changbai Mountain, so why did they live in the capital now?Thinking of his previous life, no matter what he did, the courtiers under him shouted that "the rules of the ancestors cannot be changed", which made him struggle to find the "source" from the history books every time he mentioned a policy.

Listening to Yinzhen's ridicule to the courtiers, Baozhu laughed happily: "Except for a very few who are really concerned about the country and the people, most of the others are full of nonsense, no matter how righteous they say on the surface, in fact, each of them There are a lot of careful thoughts. As long as the sea ban is not really opened for a day, those merchants can still sneakily ship by sea without paying a copper tax. And the ministers who act as the umbrella of these merchants can collect huge amounts of property, which is simply not too much Cool." These are all the facts learned from the Merdiles, and the real situation is probably even worse.

Let Ninth Brother and the others investigate the highest jumping officials in private. They had better be clean. If there is really a collusion between government and businessmen, they should first raid their homes.

Yinzhen was so angry that he was dying, what Baozhu said was only a part of the normal transaction, and some even colluded with the Japanese pirates to conduct the salt and iron business, frantically poaching the corners of the Qing Dynasty.

A carriage is heading towards Yongding River quickly...

Baozhu came here to clean up the bottom of the Yongding River and plant trees along the edge. The ministers who had learned about this before made a fuss, but Baozhu completely changed his face after showing a trick.Thinking about these people's mind orbs with their toes, they know that they just want to take advantage, but if they are really talented, they can bring them to the world of cultivating immortals to help Hong Yao, provided they can afford the high transaction fee she paid.

Of course, Baozhu would choose to plant Huanyuehe not only for looking good, but also because Huanyuehe has a strong purification ability.The upper reaches of the Yongding River flow through the Loess Plateau, and the river has a large sediment content, so it is called "Little Yellow River" and "Hunhe River".If it is not treated as soon as possible, the riverbed will continue to rise and even risk the embankment being washed away. The powerful function of Huanyuehe will avoid this possibility.

The meaning of Yinzhen is the same as that of Baozhu, and they all felt that they should give an explanation to this capable minister who dedicated his life to water control.The two plan to carve a statue of Jin Fu on the banks of the Yongding River, so that future generations will always remember his contribution to the Yongding River. In addition, they will print and publish the book "River Control Strategy" written by him.

"Tenth brother, your fourth sister-in-law and I don't need to rest, we will soon arrive at Yongding River, let's rest when we get there, please—" Baozhu rushed forward.

In order to block the breach of Qingshuitan, Jin Fu presided over the construction of Qingshuitan project.In the 18th year of Kangxi, the Qingshuitan project was completed.The new river was named Yong'an River, and the embankment was named Yong'an Embankment.After more than ten years, the Yong'an embankment did not break, which completely changed the history of Gaoyou Lake's collapse every year.

Baozhu also has to admire Jin Fu's water control ability, but such a powerful person has been wronged and imprisoned. Doesn't Kangxi know that the other party is wronged?I know, but the interest groups that Jin Fu offended will not allow him to be innocent!

For the statue, Baozhu disliked that white marble would be eroded by rain, so he chose white water jade.Baishui jade is produced in the deep sea and is often used to carve the portraits of the ancestors of the sect in the world of cultivating immortals. It stores the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators and uses it to find heirs.Although it is a bit wasteful to carve an ordinary mortal with white water jade, but who let Baozhu have a large sea area!
But before that, she had to fill the bottom of the river with phantom moon lotuses. She especially remembered how amazing it was when she saw the Xingyue River full of phantom moon lotuses for the first time in Tianqing Continent’s Phantom Moon City. It is a dreamy moon lotus.Under the moonlight, the magic moon lotus exudes a dreamlike purple light, which complements the pink and purple peach trees on both sides of the river. It looks like a fairyland from a distance. Baozhu will turn Yongding River into the "Xingyue River" of the Qing Dynasty.

Yunyu, who was worried about the income of the shops in the world of cultivating immortals, directly attacked these corrupt officials with a heavy blow, and a big move made the treasury "explode" immediately!Let the courtiers see Yinzhen's determination and ruthlessness, and then expressed a high degree of cooperation with Yinzhen's policies.

Yunyu didn't expect that the fourth brother would let the fourth sister-in-law follow him to rectify the Yellow River: "Does the fourth sister-in-law need to rest for a while?"

Yunyu smacked her tongue secretly, and gave a thumbs up to Baozhu: "Fourth sister-in-law is proud!" Both the Huanyue lotus and the pink and purple peach tree are worth a lot, and the combined value of the two is much more than the appropriation from the national treasury this time.

"In order to prevent anyone from falling into the river out of curiosity, I plan to plant thorns all over the innermost part, and then plant pink and purple peach trees outside. In the future, the pink and purple peaches will be sold for money to build surrounding villages." Baozhu also planned to cast a spell on the pink and purple peach trees to avoid It was ruined by Xiaoxiao's generation.

The more and more casual orb directly transformed into a real mermaid in front of everyone, jumped up and went straight into the river.

The people onlookers on the shore exclaimed, "The Goddess fell into the river"——
