Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 584 Development is the first element (1)

If productivity wants to continue to improve, it must be driven by interests, let more groups participate in it, and then guide it in a macro way.

What Emperor Chongzhen wanted at this stage was to allow the large number of bankrupt lower-level groups under the rule of the northern provinces to be diverted into the gradually rising workshops in an orderly manner, so that they could temporarily have the opportunity to eat their stomachs.

As for unfair treatment such as exploitation and oppression, we can only wait until the original industrialization process of the Ming Dynasty can be promoted to a certain extent, and the bad governance accumulated by the Ming Dynasty can be initially resolved, and then we can wait until the foundation accumulated by the imperial court is strengthened. solve these problems.

After all, the advancement of industrialization is bound to be accompanied by barbaric growth. This is the trend of capital expansion and cannot be changed by individual will.

Tianjin Zhili Prefecture Government Office.

"My Governor Lu, don't be so anxious."

With a smile on his face, Chen Yansheng walked up to Lu Xiangsheng holding the teacup, handed it over and said, "Isn't the current development trend of Beizhili very good?

Isn't that what we wanted to see in the first place?There's no need to get angry like this, now the officials still feel that the Disaster Relief Administration has too few full-time workers. "

"Chen Zhizhou, can I not be in a hurry?"

Lu Xiangsheng frowned tightly, met Chen Yansheng's gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know how many off-duty groups have gathered in the Zhili Disaster Relief Administration?
There are more than 400 million people!

This has not counted the group of out-of-production groups gathered in Zhili Prefecture, Tianjin.

Judging from the current trend, I am afraid that it will continue to increase steadily for a long period of time in the future. At present, the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Beizhili will only remove the clear road improvement and water conservancy renovations on your Tianjin side. For two things, there is a shortfall of more than 150 million taels of silver, not to mention food.

Ben Fu came to Tianjin this time because he wanted to seek a solution from you. In the past few months, the food and salaries allocated by His Majesty from internal funds have made Ben Fu feel ashamed to ask for food and salaries. "

"Drink tea, drink tea."

Chen Yansheng smiled and said: "The governor's yamen in Zhili, the batch of food and salaries that are in short supply, the officials here can assure the governor that all will be covered by Tianjin."

"really?!"

Lu Xiangsheng's eyes lit up, he took the teacup in front of him, stared at Chen Yansheng and said: "As far as I know, Tianjin has been developing very well recently, and the government office doesn't pay much, right?

This is not a small sum.

If something goes wrong, there is a high possibility of civil unrest under the rule of Beizhili. This is the result that no one wants to see. "

With the passage of time, the Zhili Disaster Relief Office led by Lu Xiangsheng carried out many affairs around Beizhili to gather bankrupt groups and eliminate various hidden risks and hidden dangers.

Straighten the road.

Renovate water conservancy.

Build workshops.

Development Post...

Relying on the ever-improving Disaster Relief Administration, and in the name of local disaster relief and disaster prevention, Lu Xiangsheng can be said to have started many political affairs to gradually change the status quo of Beizhili.

"Such important matters are involved, how can the lower officials guarantee them casually."

Chen Yansheng said with a serious expression: "These officials are very clear about how much effort His Majesty put in to suppress the Shanshan bandit rebellion.

When the governor left Tianjin for this batch of food and salaries, the subordinate officials ordered the Tianjin garrison to escort them back to Baoding Mansion.

However, there is one thing that I still need the governor to guarantee, so..."

"What guarantee do you want?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng put down a cup of tea and said, "As long as this batch of food and wages can be settled, even if I want Ben Fu's black hat, I can give it to you."

"This is the black gauze hat of the governor of Zhili, the lower officials would not dare to take it."

Chen Yansheng said with a smile: "The lower officials want to wait for the situation to be more stable, and after the various constructions under Beizhili's rule can make corresponding progress, the population of 100 million can be removed.

In addition to my development needs in Tianjin, the initial development of Jinzhou is in urgent need of a large number of population filling, and then to ensure the construction of the ports in Eastern Liaodong. "

Lu Xiangsheng was silent.

A population of 100 million is not a small matter. There are many levels involved behind it. If you are not careful, it may lead to a big mistake.

"Governor, I can assure you that the relocation and resettlement of this group of people must be guaranteed accordingly, and there will be no mistakes."

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng remained silent, Chen Yansheng said with a serious expression: "If Jinzhou can develop in an orderly manner, the benefits it will bring to our Ming Dynasty and our Northern Zhili will be extremely significant.

At present, the Huangming Maritime Trade Association has a large amount of money in their hands, and the lower officials want to let the money in their hands be invested in an orderly manner. "

Lu Xiangsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Chen Yansheng and said, "I would like to ask, do you have some kind of secret trade relationship with the Liaodong Rebel Army led by Li Zicheng in private?
As far as Tianjin's current development is concerned, Benfu is also calculating in his mind, relying on the ability of your Tianjin prefecture, it is impossible to have so much money and grain.

As for your majesty's internal funds, it is impossible to be inclined to your Tianjin.

Disaster relief agencies established in Liaodong, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Shandong, Henan and other places all need internal funds to allocate food and salaries. Otherwise, it would be impossible to gather bankrupt groups so quickly. "

"Yes."

Chen Yansheng nodded and said: "During the past period of time, the officials did select a group of people and secretly planned to establish a maritime trade with the Liaodong Rebels.

The ordnance, firearms, artillery, gunpowder and other things they lack, even cotton cloth, medicinal materials and other necessities, can pass through this densely established route, depart from Tianjin, rush to Jinzhou Port, and then transfer to Liaodong Rebels Controlled Liao land.

However, these things that the subordinate officials did were done according to His Majesty's secret orders, and people who are not related must never know.

Your majesty is willing to explain this matter to the governor because His Majesty has ordered it before. If the governor asks about this matter, he can take the initiative to explain it. "

Lu Xiangsheng's face changed slightly, and he muttered, "Your Majesty, this is driving tigers and wolfs away."

The words Chen Yansheng said made Lu Xiangsheng's previous doubts completely resolved at this moment. No wonder the development under the rule of Tianjin is so eye-catching.

In particular, the continuous development of the shipbuilding industry has exceeded Lu Xiangsheng's original expectations. Even if there are maritime merchants from European countries, they will not expand so fast.

"The Governor is right."

Chen Yansheng pondered for a moment, then said: "The lower officials have only recently figured out the hidden intentions of the emperor, through the sea trade that is extended everywhere, with various hot-selling commodities, orderly promote the development of the workshop under the rule, and drive shipbuilding The prosperity of the industry, and then relying on Tianjin, feeds back to the entire North Zhili, orderly promotes various clear construction matters in Zhili, thus forming a virtuous circle.”
