Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 744 The officials of the Ming Dynasty: The Hongyi people are cruel and hateful, and Nanyang has been my kingdom of the Ming Dynasty since ancient times!

too deep!
Hidden too deep!

Today's His Majesty has already had such a deep influence on the locality without making a sound. He can mobilize the power of any locality without anyone being able to hide it. His will cooperates with the foundation of the new party in the local area, and he has truly controlled the country and turned his hand. Covering hands as clouds and rain.

At least the whole of the north, plus Jiangnan and the port towns along the southeast coast, are firmly under the control of the emperor and the new party. The emperor and the cabinet can directly bypass the Ministry of War and the Donglin party to exert influence on the local area, while the Donglin party But there is nothing you can do!
But thinking of this, Qian Qianyi suddenly became vigilant: This battle seems to have gained a lot, but as far as His Majesty who has a great goal and intends to become an emperor through the ages, comparable to Tang Zong and Song Zu, his appetite is really limited. Are you satisfied?

Now Zhang Haogu, the veritable second chief assistant of Daming, who is comparable to Yu Shaobao and Zhang Jiangling in terms of reputation among the people, is he really satisfied with the current situation?
After all, when it comes to foreign development, the New Party is the real main force!
Thinking of this, Qian Qianyi's heart, which was still tangled, suddenly calmed down, and his expression was calm and steady: "Everyone, don't worry, there is still a twist in this matter."

The merchants looked at Qian Qianyi's sudden change of attitude, you look at me, I look at you, some Zhanger monks are puzzled, what is Qian Xiang thinking of?

From the imperial examination step by step to the present, Qian Qianyi's brains must be the most intelligent group in Ming Dynasty, and neither the new party nor the old Donglin party can change this.

Because the new party and the old party, to put it bluntly, still recognize the schools of psychology and science or practical studies and their governance ideas over the years, and those who can climb up in the vanity fair of the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty are all talented people.

After running through his mind, and sorting out the Da Ming Pao and internal references he had read during this period, Qian Qianyi asked, "Everyone, how much do you know about Nanyang?"

"How many countries are there in Nanyang? What are the cultures of each country? Are you denying our Chinese civilization? How many people do they have? How many soldiers do they have? Have any of you ever understood this?"

"How many cities, soldiers and horses and armaments the Hongyi people have in Nanyang, do you know these?"

The merchants on the southeast coast of Ming Dynasty went to the Western Ocean during the Yongle period, followed by the ban on the sea, the relaxation of the ban during the Jiajing period, and then the opening of the Longqing and Wanli ban seas. They have come step by step. There is always a lot to understand.

These understandings are valuable knowledge that they rely on to make a fortune and maintain their body size.

Now that Qian Qianyi asked a question, they naturally wanted to answer Qian Qianyi in detail.

The businessmen looked at each other, and one of them asked, "May I ask if Xiang Xiang has a globe at home?"

The globe is a primitive globe that depicts the distribution of the earth's seas and lands, but it is the most primitive and rough version.

The Ming Dynasty naturally collected this one, and the follow-up Ming Dynasty's understanding of the countries of the world, the seven voyages to the West during the Yongle period, etc. also relied on the globe to let the Ming Dynasty monarchs and ministers have a certain understanding of the world.

But the best thing is to look at the globe made by Matteo Ricci for the Wanli emperor and the complete map of Kunyu and Wanguo during the Wanli period. Affected by these, in the 31st year of Wanli, Li Zhizao made the first globe of Ming Dynasty.

Since Zhu Youxiao implemented the New Deal, Zhang Haogu has realized the importance of open sea trade in order to let the emperors and ministers of Ming Dynasty and the merchants have a detailed understanding of the world, and also to supply blood from all over the world to Daming smoothly in the future industrial development. To develop industry, he used various means to promote the circulation of globes and maps in Daming.

It is impossible for the people to have a large-scale production like the Kunyu Wanguo Quantu, but there are globes, some simple maps, and there are many gentry and wealthy families, wealthy businessmen and students. After all, the imperial court can test these for officials.

As the cabinet chief of Ming Dynasty, Qian Qianyi naturally also has a globe.

After ordering someone to fetch the globe, a businessman got up and came to Qian Qianyi to explain to him the culture, ethnicity, military and civilian conditions of the Nanyang countries.

When Qian Qianyi heard that Nanyang has a large area of ​​fertile land that can be cultivated three times a year, there are many gold and silver mines and many plantations, Qian Qianyi became more convinced that the imperial court would definitely take action against Nanyang!
The merchants could hear these news, so there was no reason Jin Yiwei didn't know about it.

Jin Yiwei, as the most famous soldier under the command of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, his spies are all over the Ming Dynasty, not to mention the officials of the capital, and the governors of all places are surrounded by Mongolia, Liaodong, and Southeast Asian countries.

During the Wanli period, Jinyiwei was the first to know whether it was the Japanese pirates' invasion of North Korea, or the turmoil in the Northwest, or the troubles in the Southwest. By then, Jin Yiwei had already received news from Emperor Wanli.

The development of the Jinyiwei is also closely related to the emperor himself. When an emperor can truly take charge of the universe, then by virtue of the emperor's power, the Jinyiwei will spread throughout the Ming Dynasty like Hongwu and Yongle, and an emperor will be lifted up by civil officials At that time, Jin Yiwei was naturally the sword in the cabinet's hand.

Zhu Youxiao is naturally a truly powerful emperor, and even ranked as the real supreme in all Chinese dynasties. He has enough power and money, so Jinyiwei and Dongchang can also vigorously develop and recruit manpower for development offline.

Qian Qianyi has reason to believe that Jin Yiwei knows a lot about the situation in the southeastern countries.

So an emperor who knows that the southeastern countries have rich land, rich resources, and a large number of minerals has real power and ambitions, will he let the cake of Southeast Asia go?

After making up his mind, Qian Qianyi smiled and said, "It's not enough for the old man to know about these things."

A wealthy businessman asked: "Then Qian Xiang, do you mean to let His Majesty know about this?"

Qian Qianyi glanced at this rich businessman. I'm afraid there is something wrong with this rich businessman's mind. You can give me how many words I talked at the party today, what kind of tea I drank, even what clothes you wore, and what kind of carriage and guards you took when you came here. If you can figure it out clearly, you still need to let His Majesty know about these things?

"Ahem, these things are not for His Majesty to know, but for the people of the world and other merchants to know." Qian Qianyi slowly expressed his request.

The merchants are in trouble.

We are businessmen on the southeast coast, and every family has connections. We have been doing overseas business. It is nothing to let the common people know. The stock price will rise again. Everyone grabbing business?
Who wants to earn ten yuan, but only five or even three yuan in the end!
Seeing the businessmen's embarrassing faces and not speaking, Qian Qianyi also drank tea on his own. There is no need for him to speak too thoroughly, so much is enough.

The next step is to see if these businessmen can recognize the reality.

Soon, after discussions among these businessmen, one of them came forward: "Master Qian, don't worry, we will spend a lot of money when we go back, so that the people and businessmen in Zhili in the north and south will know how rich Nanyang is."

Qian Qianyi reminded again: "The key point is that the Hongyi people, that is, the Dutch people, how much land they occupied in Nanyang, how much wealth they plundered, how much gold and silver minerals, and plantations they robbed."

The merchants nodded: "We understand, don't worry about money."

After the merchants left, Qian Qianyi leisurely put down the teacup.

What's the use of preaching how much money you can make by transporting goods from Daming to Taixi?

This journey is turbulent, drifting on the ocean for several months, and still risking the shipwreck. Are you willing to participate in this kind of thing?

Moreover, the imperial court sent troops to beat the Hongyi people, you go to business to make money, what do people from other places think?
It's better to publicize how domineering the Hongyi people are in Nanyang, how they bully the court and vassals, and how much wealth they have accumulated, so that everyone can be drawn in, and the Hongyi people in Nanyang will be wiped out together. The imperial court occupies land, and everyone takes money and shares it together Benefit.

The Hongyi people disappeared in Nanyang, so they can go to the land of Taixi to do business, so they can do whatever they want?
As a Daming Pavilion elder who is proficient in human nature, Qian Qianyi felt that he could mobilize the gentry and merchants of Daming with just three sentences. His position as the Daming Pavilion elder was really worthy of the name.

Soon, less than seven days had passed since the news that the Daming navy had defeated the Hongyi pirate fleet, new gossip spread in the northern and southern Zhili of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, it is about how the Hongyi people did evil in Nanyang.

In a teahouse in the capital, a small landlord said to his friends, "Hey, have you heard that? Those Hongyi people in Nanyang are extremely hateful!"

Someone asked: "Why are they so hateful?"

The little landlord said: "I heard people say that they are occupying land in Nanyang, building their own cities, and enslaving those people. The good Thai and Western people are not staying in the Taixi land, but come to us to do evil. Isn't it abominable?"

Someone asked again: "What does the Nanyang matter have to do with us?"

When these words came out, some people were unhappy: "Why doesn't it matter? Which of the countries in Nanyang is not my vassal of Ming Dynasty? The Hongyi people oppressed the king, enslaved the people, and amassed money wantonly in their land. Isn't this just beating our Ming Dynasty? face?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone quite recognized it.

After all, everyone's life is getting better and better now, the Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more powerful and conquering all directions, conquering the south and the north, and the people of the Ming Dynasty have straight spines, and their spirits are so good.

When the people of Daming were so arrogant, there was news that the Hongyi people were bullying the kingdom of Ming Dynasty in Nanyang. Isn't this equivalent to the fact that you bullied my little brother to deliberately slap me in the face?

The proud Ming people couldn't bear it, anyway, it wasn't me who went to the battlefield, so the face of Daming must not be lost!
Immediately, someone slapped the table: "Hmph! The mere Western barbarians dare to act viciously in the east! The imperial court should send a king to wipe out the barbarians, so that those Westerners can see how powerful Ming is!"

Immediately afterward, someone echoed: "That's right, my Great Ming conquered the world in the Southern and Northern Wars, and the whole world is full of princes and ministers. Since these Nanyang countries are my vassals, how can they be oppressed by Thais and Westerners? If you don't punish them Let him tell Da Ming Wei, where is the majesty of Da Ming?"

These words attracted a large number of people around to agree, yes, if these Western barbarians are not punished, what is the power of the Ming Dynasty?
Anyway, the new army of the Ming Dynasty was invincible in both the south and the north, and they didn't have to go to the battlefield to fight their lives.

Just as they were talking, someone whispered again: "Hey, do you know why the Hongyi people in Taixi took the risk of offending me, Daming, to do evil in Nanyang?"

Seeing everyone shaking their heads, the man said proudly: "My younger brother works in the south of the Yangtze River, and he often goes to sea. According to him, Nanyang is very rich!"

"Rich? How rich?" Someone was puzzled.

The man said triumphantly: "According to what my brother-in-law said, the land in Nanyang is extremely fertile and fertile. There is no winter there, the weather is warm and the rain is plentiful, so the chickens, ducks and geese in Nanyang grow fat and strong one by one, which is called shiny."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened.

Isn't it? The climate in Nanyang is hot, there is a lot of rain, and there are naturally many insects, such as mosquitoes, spiders and centipedes, chickens, ducks and geese eat these all day long, can they not grow fat and fat?

Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, the man continued: "Seeing that these lands are fertile, the Hongyi people seized the land in Nanyang, treated the local people as slaves, and asked them to give them to Hongyi people in their plantations. People work, and the granary of the Hongyi people is full of food."

Some people disdain: "Although the rain in our north has decreased in recent years, and the weather is getting colder and colder, but thanks to your majesty and the chief minister's blessing, my granary is now full of grain."

The man sneered and said, "Is your home as comfortable as Nanyang? Can your home not survive the winter?"

"Also, does your family have a gold mine or jade mine?"

Gold mine!

And jade mines!

As soon as the word came out, everyone couldn't sit still.

Gold mine!

Jade Mine!

That is gold and jade!

Who can refuse those golden, yellow and orange cuties who can touch people's hearts the most and those warm and beautiful gems and jade?
Since the Han Dynasty, the Chinese civilization has been admiring gold and jade. Since the dynasties, gold and jade have been the most precious things.

China's admiration for gold and jade is immeasurable, and all kinds of beautiful words are not counted. They also use gold and jade in life to describe people's precious morals and sentiments, and all beautiful words can be added to it.

Originally, silver was rare in Daming, and it was expensive as platinum. However, with the continuous introduction of overseas silver since Jiajing, Daming's silver became more and more abundant. Now that there is no shortage of silver, gold and jade are even more precious.

After hearing that Nanyang is rich in gold, silver and jade mines, people's breathing became heavy.

"Those Hongyi people drove the people of Nanyang to dig gold, silver and jade mines for them. The gold, silver and jade that were mined were shipped back to Taixi by boat. These should belong to the Nanyang countries and belong to our Ming Dynasty. of."

"You haven't seen how beautiful that jade is, the color is moist and transparent, and it's perfect!"

"The jadeite from Nanyang, alas, such a big jadeite, the color is moist and beautiful, these Hongyi people don't care much, they pack them in piles and transport them away."

"That's not to mention, we Han people are still being bullied by those Hongyi people in Nanyang! Those Hongyi people oppressed our Han people and fishermen, and forced them to pay various heavy taxes. Why should my subjects of Ming Dynasty let these The Hongyi people are so insulting? Isn’t this insulting me, Daming?”

Hearing these words, people couldn't sit still. So much gold, silver, and jade, just let the Hongyi people transport away?

This is in the east!
The ones from the east belong to Daming!

No one can tell that this is wrong. All the kingdoms in the world recognize the status of the suzerain of the Ming Dynasty, and pay tribute every year. These good things should have belonged to the Ming Dynasty, but they were all caused by the Hongyi people!
What's more, these Hongyi people dare to bully my Ming people in Nanyang?

That's courting death!
Right now the people of Ming Dynasty are very proud with the prosperity and prosperity of Ming Dynasty. If you dare to bully the people of Ming Dynasty, are you afraid that Wang Shiyi will be turned into ashes? !

Of course, whether the imperial court recognizes these Ming people is another matter. After all, these people are from the late Song Dynasty, the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, and the Chinese Miao descendants who fled to Nanyang in the past dynasties. The imperial court does not seem to recognize these people as Ming people.

But the big guys don't know!

Hearing this, a man couldn't help but complained: "Hey! These damn red barbarian thieves! They did such evil in Nanyang! I wish I could join the army immediately and fight against these evil thieves with Master Wang!"

Another man stood up and said loudly: "I, the people of Ming Dynasty, are treated with great courtesy in all countries. Now, the barbarians of Taixi dare to humiliate my people of Ming Dynasty like this. As a son of the Ming Dynasty, I want to share the worries of the imperial court! I want to join the army! "

As soon as this remark came out, people immediately echoed: "Yes! Join the army! Fight on the battlefield, let the barbarians know how powerful I am, the master of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Yes, we have to write to the imperial court to send troops to attack the Hongyi people!"

Looking at the lively atmosphere in the teahouse, several people looked at each other and grinned: Look, isn't this emotion aroused?

As for why these brothers look so familiar, maybe they are colleagues from other places?
Several waves of caring people just set off the atmosphere together, in the capital, in Jinling, in Tianjin, in Jinan, in Yangzhou, Suzhou
Zhili in the north and south, along the coast of Daming, these elite places, there are people who are promoting the cruelty and hate of the Hongyi people, the prosperity and abundance of Nanyang, the hardships and hardships of the Ming people in Nanyang, and how hard it is for the people of Ming to live in Nanyang. What can the barbarians get.
The public sentiment among the people of Ming Dynasty has been aroused.

The common people sympathized with the sufferings of the Han people in Nanyang, and were angry at the challenge to the majesty of the imperial court; the landlords and gentry were amazed at the richness of Nanyang, and wondered how much food and resources they could have if they had a piece of land in Nanyang; businessmen They coveted the gold mines and jade mines in Nanyang and the sea routes representing gold and silver; while the generals and soldiers of the imperial court were also eager to fight, eager to be promoted by the coming of the war.

Even all the officials were delighted with the land and resources in Nanyang, discussing how much more fertile land would be produced by the imperial court if the Hongyi people were driven away, and how much food would be increased in a year; Will there be more shares and more salaries?
Nanyang is really a good place. .
