Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 804
Chapter 804
As the saying goes, the bitterness of spring night is "short", one is short or the other is short, just taste it yourself.
On the morning of the second day after the wedding, Zhu Cihong and his wife wore court clothes and order clothes respectively, and went to Empress Yi'an, Zhu Youjian, and Zhou Hou to salute and greet each other in turn. Starting today, Wang Zhilan has officially become a member of the Tian Family.
Afterwards, some anecdotes about the grand ceremony of this prosperous age also became a topic of great interest among the people in the capital, and these anecdotes all happened to the guests from overseas vassal states.
For example, a court official attending a banquet saw with his own eyes that a guest from a certain vassal state secretly put the dishes on the table into his arms when the wine was in full swing. Mouthwash is used as drinking water and drank in one gulp. A certain prince took a fancy to a maid and wanted to marry him as his wife, etc., were all told by court officials as anecdotes to his family members. Within a few days, these things spread It is well known in the city that the common people are very proud of themselves as Daming people while talking and laughing.
You must know that these guests from the vassal state are all upper-level figures in their own country, and they are also powerful in their own country. Unexpectedly, even a seventh-rank sesame official in Daming is not as knowledgeable as him.
The land of barbarians is where barbarians come out. In this world, only my emperor Ming is worthy of being called Huaxia. It seems that the duty of Da Ming to educate the world is still a long way to go.
How do the people in the capital know that these princes from small countries such as Chenla, Siam, Champa, Boni, etc., or high-ranking officials and nobles who came to watch the ceremony, when they first came to Beijing, their hearts were greatly shocked. Bundle.
On their own land, when have they seen such a grand and clean city as Beijing?When have you seen such a beautiful building?When have you eaten such a wide variety of delicacies?When have you seen so many women (court ladies) with perfect looks, temperament and body?
All the people and things in the capital of the Ming Dynasty made this group of dignitaries from the vassal state both surprised and inferior. When they were in their own country, they thought that the things they usually enjoyed were the best in the world, but only today did they know that, To describe myself as a frog in a well can be said to be exactly the same.
After being invited to enter the Forbidden City, these guests were dumbfounded, and the inferiority complex in their hearts instantly penetrated into the blood vessels and bone marrow.
It turns out that the place where Da Mingzi lives is comparable to a big city in their own country. In comparison, his daily residence is just like a pigsty, dirty and small.
When someone asked curiously and cautiously: How big is the palace where His Majesty the Great Emperor lives? In the harem, what you see is just a corner of the palace.
After experiencing a series of shocks, these guests have become numb, but deep in their hearts they are repositioning the relationship between their own country and Ming Dynasty: the generation of sons is reduced to the generation of grandchildren.
In the few days after the prince’s wedding ceremony, the guests from the vassal state, accompanied by the officials of the Honglu Temple, began to visit and shop in the capital, using the silver coins of the Ming Dynasty to buy products of the Ming Dynasty. However, the difference from the past was that , this time the sightseeing program has added the Institute of Technology.
Since the "invitation" issued by the Ang Fan vassal state under the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, the rulers of various countries have successively sent their sons and daughters to the Humanities Branch of Daming Institute of Technology to study. While we are friendly with them, we also implore those famous scholars to teach them well. Since there are people from their hometown this time, it is natural to visit them and leave living expenses for the foreign students in their own country.
The cost of studying in Daming is not low.
In addition to the tuition fee of [-] silver coins per person per year, these international students also need to pay for clothing, board and lodging, the four treasures of the study, textbooks, tutoring fees, and sightseeing fees. , This is not counting the expenses of going out for dining and entertainment during rest and bathing.
Fortunately, those who came to study abroad were from top families in various countries, and they were not short of money. Even if they themselves were not well-known in the family, they could still afford this little money.
The ministers of the cabinet knew in their hearts that most of the so-called royal children sent to study by various countries this time were the kind that were not valued in their own countries, but so what?
In the plan formulated by the cabinet, as long as these people truly love and admire Daming's culture and are loyal to Daming, then after they finish their studies and return to China, Daming will use all its strength to support them to take power.
This strategy will continue to be implemented, and the vassal state must fully recognize the Chinese civilization from top to bottom.The cabinet ministers believed that the top decision makers were the most important. Since the emperor wanted to build a Chinese civilization circle, the decision makers of each country must follow the order of the Ming court, otherwise they should be eliminated.
Different from Zhu Youjian's concept of good-neighborliness, friendship and equal treatment of all countries, in the minds of cabinet ministers, including most important ministers, these vassal states are no different from the Ming provinces, and those state leaders are nothing more than a Provincial governor only.
disobedient?It's just a matter of changing, and I'm afraid no one will do it?
Over the past few years, Daming has obtained huge benefits from the vassal state, and these benefits have not only helped to improve people's livelihood and stabilize the situation in Daming, but also benefited himself and his family a lot from it. Increasing the number of vassal states became more eager.
Now no one is interested in sucking blood from the people of Ming Dynasty anymore.
Because Daming is too rich.
With the large-scale circulation of silver coins, Taicang can make about 400 million taels of profit every year just by recycling silver taels into silver coins, and the mining of Luzon copper mine is another big source of income.
The Sihai Trading Company hires locals at low prices to open mines, and then sets up a branch office in Luzon, melts the ore and casts it into exquisite copper coins, and then uses these copper coins to buy rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton and other agricultural products from the vassal states , Ming people will buy these overseas grains at a price lower than the market price, and then use these grains to feed pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese. After the poultry and livestock grow up, they will be sold on the market to earn high profits. , are all profitable businesses.
In addition to rations, the self-produced grains of the Ming people were sold to Sihai Liquor at a price of three silver coins per stone, while the price of purchased overseas grain was only one silver coin per stone. To put it bluntly, it is difficult for the people of Ming Dynasty to lose money.
In fact, those who are interested have figured it out a long time ago. The court's strategy is actually to transfer the burden that should have been borne by the people of Ming Dynasty to others.
