Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 404: Shu Kingdom, Chu Kingdom and Jing Kingdom: The Buddhist Kingdom and the Daughter Kingdom that abolished the imperial system
The Kingdom of Jin and the Kingdom of Shu took Curitiba as their territorial line.

The Kingdom of Shu is located in the east-central part of North America, bordering the Kingdom of Jin, Tang, Chu, and Jing. It is a thoroughfare country.

Including southern Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and owns all of the Rio de la Plata Bay.

This bay, which can be regarded as the Hangzhou Bay that is not filled with silt, is the most important trading port on the Atlantic Ocean and the most important trading base of the Shu Kingdom.

The Shu Kingdom's fiscal revenue can reach 3000 million Ming Yuan from this bay alone.

Shu has a total population of 1.6 million, and its per capita cultivated land ranks first in America because of its small population.

Therefore, there are many villas in Shu, and there are also gardens. They are mainly built on the wasteland at the foot of the mountains. The fertile cultivated land does not allow the construction of gardens and villas.

In the Rio de la Plata basin live the indigenous Guaraní people.

Shu is the only country that has not massacred its indigenous people.

Because King Shu really believed in Buddhism.

Every year, the Central Committee sends people to check whether the Shu scriptures are in Chinese. As long as they are in Chinese, the Central Committee doesn't care much.

But the son of the old emperor must take on political tasks.

At one time, he wanted to establish the Yellow religion as the state religion.

There is a long way to go on this road.

According to statistics, the Guaraní population should be around 70. Within thirty years, they were gradually naturalized and incorporated into the Shu Kingdom.

Folks respectfully call Zhu Jianzhi the Buddha Emperor.

After the king of Shu succeeded to the vassal state, he carried out large-scale construction projects and built tens of thousands of lamasery temples.

He's not doing anything behind closed doors.

Fortunately, Wushen had already abandoned Zhenwen, and all Buddhist scriptures were in Chinese.

The Guarani people naturally believe in the Yellow religion.

Many Buddhist, Yellow, and Taoist monks at home and abroad admire Zhu Jianzhi's insights and eloquence.

The identity of the Shu Kingdom is based on the Yellow religion, not the Han culture, so it does not depend on skin color or region, only on the same belief.

This was Zhu Jianzhi’s original intention.

His mission is to succeed the Shu Kingdom and govern the Shu Kingdom well.

The Confucian idea of ​​great harmony was carried forward in Shu.

However, the Shu Kingdom does not want to participate in the struggle for hegemony, nor is it willing to participate in the struggle for hegemony. What he pursues is peace, and world peace is his great ambition.

When he grew up, he served as governor of Wusheng for six years, was baptized by the great lama, and completely converted to Buddhism.

He was not as ambitious as Xia Guo and wanted to get rid of the stereotypes of Han culture.

When Zhu Jianzhi was the governor of Wushen, he debated scriptures every day. He was known as a disciple of the Buddha in Wushen. There was even a great lama who wanted to invite Zhu Jianzhi to join the Yellow Sect and become a disciple of the Buddha.

When the Prince of Shu grew up, all worldly affairs were managed by the Prince of Shu.

Therefore, Shu is the only country where Lamaism is everywhere. The other five religions are in decline in Shu.

The Guaraní people were still in the era of totem worship. How could they have any faith? However, the Ming people were so powerful, with long guns and short cannons, that they quickly conquered the Guaraní people.

In terms of political philosophy, Zhu Jianzhi prefers a responsible cabinet system, but the cabinet of Shu does not have as much power as the cabinet of Jin.

was refuted by the center.

Instead, he invited eminent monks from all over the world to come to Shu to debate scriptures. He liked to argue, to seek out his own shortcomings, and then repair them. He also hoped to achieve great success in his theory and create a new Mahayana Buddhism.

Even though Zhu Jianzhi was focused on debating scriptures, the Shu Kingdom was prospering because everyone in the Shu Kingdom believed in the Yellow Sect and the civil atmosphere was very good.

After all, it was clear that Zhu Jianzhi, the king of Shu, was the emperor of a country. He had never thought of splitting the Han cultural circle.

In fact, the Yellow Cult is very aggressive.

However, the philosophy of Shu Buddhism incorporates a lot of ideas from Han Buddhism, removing the aggressiveness and creating a paradise country.

The prince of Shu, Zhu Yourong, took charge of the country at the age of sixteen. He did not use the Tubo method to structure the political power. At its peak, Tubo almost destroyed the Tang Dynasty. This kind of regime was very suitable for Shu.

He refined and integrated the thoughts of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism to forge his own thoughts, and then integrated the new thoughts into the Yellow Sect, creating Shu Buddhism, an independent sect.

Zhu Yourong is also a devout Christian.

Among the forty-one sons of the old emperor, he was the only one who truly believed in Buddhism because his mother was a devout Buddhist.

Datong should appear in Ming Dynasty.

Prince Zhu Yourong is also a pacifist. He opposes war and oppression, and hopes for world peace, equality for everyone, and the establishment of a harmonious society.

It no longer matters whether there is a state or a state religion.

His Shu Kingdom is more appropriately called the Buddha Kingdom.

He hates war, hates invasion, and hates slavery. He hopes to build a Buddhist country of great harmony and integrate Confucian thought of great harmony into Buddhist concepts.

Therefore, the King of Shu's attitude towards the indigenous people is that those who are willing to convert to Buddhism are Shu people, and those who are unwilling will be killed.

But in Shu, among the 1.6 million people, there are more than million Huang followers.

Zhu Jianzhi was erudite and talented, and had read extensively since childhood.

But the old emperor forcibly ignored the idea of ​​Datong from the Confucian system, and instead adopted more legalistic ideas, and he was the most slippery person.

The whole country of Shu calls for peace, but don't think that Shu is a soft persimmon.

The old emperor liked Buddhist soldiers very much, and there must be Buddhist soldiers in the palace guards, because Buddhist soldiers are loyal and have high combat effectiveness. If the King of Shu wants to go crazy with Buddhist soldiers, these Buddhist soldiers will not be afraid of death.

Among all the vassal states, Shu has the worst tourism, because Shu pursues pure land and happiness, does not value money, and does not want tourists to affect their pure land.

The tourism industry is underdeveloped, and the development of foreign trade is average.

But the sculptures and handicrafts of Shu are the best in the world, especially Thangka. A Thangka is worth a thousand dollars.

Some tourists have discovered this small treasure country, but it has not become popular because Shu does not want more people to know about it.

The Kingdom of Shu is not closed to the outside world. Its 1.6 million people cannot just eat free rice. They must also develop to the outside world and promote the Yellow Sect.

So it’s time to make money, and it’s time to trade.

Zhu Youhu's only impression of Shu was that of a paradise on earth!
In the Ming Dynasty, where industrialization was developing rapidly, it was almost impossible to see smiles on the faces of the people. The main theme was high pressure in life.

Here, the people may not be rich, but everyone is smiling.

According to statistics, there are as many as 1.7 million people suffering from anxiety and depression in Ming Dynasty, and this number is still growing rapidly.

In Shu, there is no mental hospital and almost no patients with mental illness.

This is very rare in all vassal states in the world.

The twelve American countries are all very wealthy and have no worries about food and clothing. However, in order to develop, the countries will create countless difficulties for the people and force them to move forward.

There is no such thing as Shu. The king has nothing to ask for and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Shu does not participate in the struggle for hegemony, does not have high economic requirements, and does not have much real estate. It is enough for the people to live and work in peace and contentment and devote themselves to Buddha.

The annual fiscal revenue of Shu is only 4000 million.

Among the twelve American countries, the existence of the bottom one, even the center is angry about it. The unique natural environment is not enough to develop?
But the happiness rate of the people of Shu is the highest in the world.

On the other hand, in the countries with the fastest industrialization process, people suffering from depression and anxiety are everywhere, and people complaining that life is stressful. Is this good?

Do people struggle all their lives just for the so-called material life? Shouldn’t spiritual life come first?
Adjacent to the Kingdom of Shu is another powerful country on the South American continent, the Kingdom of Chu.

Chu State has a small territory, including Chile, Bolivia, and northern Argentina in the area north of the Colorado River.

The population is 2.3 million.

The territory of Chu State is far from vast, and there are almost no large plains in the country. They are just leftovers from other countries. However, there is a prairie with the most favorable climate in the world, the Pampas Grassland.

King Zhu Jianyi of Chu did not raise the grassland, but mainly focused on grazing.

The King of Chu wanted to dominate, and as a nomadic people, he was more brave and good at fighting than a farming people.

There are 9000 million herdsmen in Chu State, but the herdsmen of Chu State are different from the herdsmen of Mobei. The herdsmen of Mobei are hungry and have no food to eat, so they are brave and good at fighting. The herdsmen of Chu State are so rich that they are all greedy for life and afraid of death. .

When Zhu Jianyi found out, he almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.

There are also 6000 million guano workers in Chu State.

The Ataka Desert is all within the territory of Chu State. This barren desert is the only treasure desert in the world. A large amount of guano is deposited here. The guano is not easy to decompose, forming large areas of struvite, which is also phosphate. mine.

This thing is more valuable than gold.

The whole world is rushing to buy it.

The new soil of the Ming Dynasty requires fertilizer, and the grassland filled in the Wei, Sui and Daxia need to be mixed with struvite to increase the fertility of the land.

Even though there are chemical fertilizers now, chemical fertilizers cannot replace struvite.

The Ataka Desert, this barren land, provides Da Chu with hundreds of millions of fiscal revenue every year. This is because Da Chu does not grow food, but relies on collecting guano and grazing, which is enough to support Da Chu in becoming a powerful country in South America.

Because of the bird droppings, Datang's eyes in the north turned blue and he almost got into a fight.

The old man is still here.

Once the old man dies, the two countries will fight over bird droppings.

What foreign countries still don’t know is that there are saltpeter mines buried under the Ataka Desert. This is the raw material for making gunpowder. Over the years, Dachu has secretly mined and stored it secretly.

Mineral resources such as copper, rhenium, molybdenum, silver, gold and iodine are not uncommon in South America.

Countries in the Americas have abundant resources.

However, Chu State has the largest copper reserves in the world. The reserves are so large that even the old emperor wants a share of them.

For example, when Oceania was still worried about water, Chu State was worried because its water resources were too abundant.

When Ming Dynasty was worried about low grain output, Chu State was worried about too much bird droppings and abundant fertility.

When Dashang was worried that foreigners were too difficult to clean up, Chu State was worried because its life was too comfortable.

In Chu State, the indigenous people are a small number of Mapuche people, probably only a few hundred thousand people.

Now they are all mining for Chu State.

Chu King Zhu Jianyi believed in nothing but strength.

No one outside the country knows that the Chu State has more than a thousand saltpeter warehouses, which contain a large amount of saltpeter. As long as war is approaching, it will be turned into gunpowder.

Chu is the country that exports the most copper in the world and produces the most bullet casings.

As for how many bullet casings the Chu State secretly stored, no one knows.

The base is built in the Andes Mountains and everything is kept secret.

The Kingdom of Shu is the land of ten thousand Buddhas, and the Kingdom of Chu is an industrial power.

The railway crossed the Andes Mountains and ran through every corner of Chu State.

The vast grasslands supply the meat of the entire South America. With freezers, Chu can supply the world's meat.

On the South American continent, only two countries can compete for hegemony.
Tang and Chu.

Because they all have territory to the west of the Andes, the Andes is a natural barrier and natural strategic depth. With it, Guozuo can always survive, unless there is a faint king and the regime is overthrown.

The capital of the Chu State was built in the Andes Mountains, surrounded by mountains on all sides, and had deserts as strategic depth. It was impossible for any country to conquer the Chu capital of Ying.

Zhu Jianyi actually participated in the war.

When the Ming Dynasty attacked India, Zhu Jianyi personally led the troops. This guy was an emperor on horseback, and his title was Chu, which just shows his ability.

Even though his military level was not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty, he was still a top general.

He only had five sons, and the Prince of Chu was also a general on horseback, so the King of Chu was not worried about the decline of the Chu State after his death.

There are a large number of uninhabited islands scattered on the east coast of Chu State, and Chu State lacks cultivated land.

The king of Chu wanted to fill up the plains and develop farming.

But facing the Pacific Ocean, there are no mountains to block it. Planting is useless. There are typhoons every day, so nothing can be grown.

Only travel can be done.

But if a natural disaster kills tourists, it will cause international public opinion, which is a big deal.

King Chu also had a headache.

The prince of Chu, Zhu Youju, proposed that aquaculture should be carried out on islands dotted all over the country, which were most suitable for aquaculture.

The question is, who will eat the food raised? Who to sell to?

There is no shortage of sea in the five South American countries. Even the animals on land cannot eat it. Who will eat the sea food? Is it still farmed? Doesn’t the wild one taste better?
Daming wanted to eat it eagerly, but the cost of transporting it was too high.

After Zhu Youhui hovered in the Chu State for a few days, he left the Chu State and went to the last country in South America, the Jing State.

Jing Kingdom, the area south of the Colorado River, including the south of the Strait of Magellan, is all Jing Kingdom territory.

The territory of Jing State is the smallest in South America, with more than one million square kilometers.

The population is 1.9 million, slightly more than Shu.

The national policy is to govern by doing nothing. The higher-ups basically don’t care about anything, but the people are extremely rich.

Because King Zhu Jianfei of Jing had no sons. He had seventeen daughters but no sons. In his forties, he had given up on having a son, which was like a nightmare to him.

Among the vassals of the Ming Dynasty, he was the only vassal king without any heirs.

If Zhu Jianfei has the energy to deal with state affairs, he can simply leave it to the cabinet and govern by doing nothing.

In the fifty-ninth year of Jingtai's reign, he completely gave up having a son and was completely ruined.

All the princes and kings wanted to adopt their sons to Zhu Jianfei, but Zhu Jianfei refused to thank him. His country of Jing did not want to fall into the hands of outsiders.

Therefore, in the 61st year of Jingtai, he went to the old emperor and asked the old emperor to take back the Jing Kingdom, hoping to use the Jing Kingdom as an enclave of the Ming Dynasty.

The courtiers were extremely excited at that time.

South America is so rich, who doesn’t want to feel like God is forcing him to make a living?

But the old emperor refused.

The territory of the Ming Dynasty was so huge that it was already difficult to manage. Adding another enclave would make it too difficult to manage.

Moreover, the development of Ming Dynasty and Jing Kingdom was unbalanced.

In terms of people's happiness index, Jing State is happier than Ming Dynasty, but its income is not as good as Ming Dynasty. If it is merged into Ming Dynasty, the people will have a psychological gap, and they will eventually become independent after a long time.

The key is that the prince is not good enough.

The old emperor was still worried that his country's territory would not be preserved. How could he want an enclave?
King Jing also knew the dilemma of the Ming Dynasty. Shangshu was just trying to stop the vassal king from adopting an adopted son. Even his own father did not make the decision to give him an adopted son. How could the brothers have this qualification?
If it were an internal vassal of the Ming Dynasty, the clan government would be qualified, but he was an external vassal and the emperor of a country. No one could make decisions on his behalf except his parents.

In the past two years, he also worked out a responsible cabinet system with reference to the political system of the Jin Kingdom.

He has no sons but many daughters.

A daughter cannot be an emperor, but she can be a prime minister. No one stipulates that a woman cannot be a prime minister.

Because the prime minister is a newly proposed concept, the Ming Dynasty had a chief minister but no prime minister.

It is absolutely possible for the daughter to be the prime minister and the princess to govern.

If he has no sons in a few years, he will simply abolish the emperor system and directly use the prime minister system. Zhu Jianfei's seventeen daughters will all be transformed into political families. From now on, the prime ministers will rotate among these seventeen families.

The seventeen princesses all recruited sons-in-law and married into the Zhu family, and their descendants were all named Zhu.

The cabinet consists of seventeen princesses.

From now on, it will be composed of the descendants of the seventeen princesses, and the descendants will continue the eldest son inheritance system. That is to say, these seventeen princesses will serve as cabinet ministers for generations and equally share the political power of the Jing Kingdom.

In order to ensure the continuity of the country, we can appropriately delegate power to the people. Ballot boxes are a good thing.

The Kingdom of Jin seems to have a parliamentary system, but it is actually a political family system.

The Jing Kingdom can be more thorough and give votes to the people, but they can only choose among the seventeen princess families, which is similar to the Golden Family.

The Great Khan of Mongolia can only come from the Golden Family. Whoever is elected depends on the support of the Mongolian dignitaries. They support it with their barbaric army, while the Jing Kingdom can support it with their votes.

National participation.

It can guarantee the lasting political power of the seventeen princess families.

If the court officials do not agree, then follow the aristocratic family system and restore the Han and Jin aristocratic families. As long as there are no Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the aristocratic family will never fall.

This road has not been traveled before.

Even if he went wrong, Zhu Jianfei had no son, and Jing Kingdom would have been annexed by neighboring countries. Would the King of Chu still kill his niece?
If he dares to kill, no clan in the world will spare him.

You can destroy my country, but you cannot kill my family. This is a conventional rule, because we all have a common father and a common ancestor.

King Jing has no sons, so the people of Jing can live and work in peace and contentment.

If the top doesn't bother, the bottom can live a good life.

King Jing was a hands-off boss who ruled by inaction and the people grew barbaric, but developed better than Shu.

In the 2.4th year of Jingtai's reign, Jing's fiscal revenue for this year was million.

The income is higher than that of a country that is good at governance.

Occupying the tip of South America, it is very close to Antarctica. It can communicate with the five continents, and its ships can navigate the ocean.

Jing's commercial tax rate is the lowest among other countries.

This attracted a large number of foreign capital to invest in Jingguo, and also attracted a group of wealthy domestic households to immigrate to Jingguo, and Jingguo naturally became rich.

The indigenous Fuegians of Tierra del Fuego are pure savages, and they were not even wearing clothes when we found them.

After the Ming Dynasty landed on Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost island of South America, they began to arrest the Fuegians on a large scale.

And didn't kill.

Instead, they were sent to Daming to perform.

These Fuegians, like the lions and tigers of the acrobatic troupe, became the laughingstock of Mingren after dinner. They were lucky. It was better to join the acrobatic troupe than to go to hell.

As of Jingtai's sixty-fourth year, there were almost no Fuegians left. What happened is impossible to verify.

In the sixty-third year of Jingtai, King Jing thought carefully and decided to implement his plan. In the past few years, no one in the harem was pregnant, daughters could not be born, and a son was born. He simply turned the princess family into a political family.

King Jing's drastic reforms aroused dissatisfaction in Chu State.

King Zhu Jianyi of Chu wanted to adopt his son to King Jing and inherit the country of Jing in the future. However, King Jing made a move and transferred political power to his daughters. Isn't this a waste of money?

The King of Chu was the first to go to Shuzhong, scolding King Jing for not seeing the Ming Dynasty or having a clan.

Even today, with open minds, people in Ming Dynasty still have a strong sense of clan, and the status of daughters is not as good as that of nephews.

Zhu Jianfei's princess is an outsider.

Seventeen princesses cannot stand up to one nephew.

After the king of Chu went to the throne, all the sects and vassals in the world came to the throne. They thought that Zhu Jianfei had forgotten his ancestors because of his countless canons, and he was like a chicken in the morning.

Zhu Jianfei also hesitated.

He did not expect that this reform would arouse strong opposition from people all over the world.

In fact, in his heart, he couldn't accept the princess family replacing the Zhu family's imperial power. There was nothing he could do, he couldn't give birth to a son.

He wrote his confusion in a letter and asked his father for help.

If his father asked him to adopt his nephew, he could only agree.

In his heart, he thought that his father would support him instead, because he was the first emperor to advocate equality between men and women, the first emperor to improve women's social status, and the first emperor to support the women's rights movement.

It is even said that the old emperor is the biggest backer of the feminist movement.

This time, Zhu Youhu brought the old emperor's imperial edict.

When Zhu Youhu landed in Tang State, Zhu Jianfei sent someone to pick him up. As a result, Zhu Youhu seemed to be the last one to come to Jing State on purpose.

The later he arrived, the more confident Zhu Jianfei felt.

It shows that Zhu Youhu also wanted to succeed him, but the imperial edict was contrary to Zhu Youhu's idea.

really.

The old emperor's imperial edict allowed him to withdraw the imperial power, instead appoint seventeen princess families into the cabinet, and implement the cabinet-parliamentary system.

The old emperor helped him fend off the opposition of the feudal kings all over the world.

Support him in assigning imperial power to his daughter.

Zhu Jianfei burst into tears.

If a nephew kisses, how can a daughter kiss? This is the truth, but in a patriarchal society, who dares to say it out loud?

This is a patriarchal society, and all systems are made for men.

What about women?
Do women have any social status?

It was the old emperor who single-handedly opened a hole for women, and then continued to enlarge the hole, allowing women to step out of the boudoir and obtain the same social rights.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were female nobles and courtiers.

In the Jing Kingdom, why not give the imperial power to the princess?

As soon as the imperial edict came out, the whole world was in an uproar.

All sects and vassals in the world jokingly called Jing State a daughter's kingdom. Like the conservative king of Tang, he scolded Zhu Jianfei for disrupting the world's ethical principles. Such a country should perish.

The old emperor also wrote a secret letter to each of his seventeen granddaughters.

Tell them to bravely come to the stage and enjoy political power. The Ming Dynasty is not the Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian, Taiping, and Changle of the Tang Dynasty were called roosters. In the Ming Dynasty, men and women were equal. Where did the roosters come from?
The imperial power of the Jing Kingdom is granted by me to your father Zhu Jianfei. He is the emperor of the Jing Kingdom and has the right to decide on his own imperial power.

He has no son and wants a daughter of his own. I feel the same way about how to pity a son but not a husband.

After you take control of political power, you should serve the people wholeheartedly and make some achievements to make me proud and your father.

After watching the ceremony, the princesses kowtowed in the direction of Beijing and shed tears.

They are also under a lot of pressure.

Because of this matter, even the husband's family pointed fingers, let alone the public, they all scolded them.

In fact, their father didn't care much about them. He only cared about whether they had sons, and he also gave his daughters an orthodox royal education.

With the support of the imperial edict, King Jing decided to give the seventeen princesses three years to study. Three years later, in the 67th year of Jingtai, King Jing abdicated as Supreme King. Jing State would abolish the emperor system and replace it with a cabinet system and a prime minister system. .

The cabinet is inherited by the eldest son of the family of seventeen daughters. The prime minister is elected from one of the seventeen families. The term is four years, with a maximum of two terms. The prime minister is determined by the vote of all the people.

The electoral system was further improved by Jing State on the basis of Jin State.

Jing State was also the first country in the world to remove the imperial system.

There are people all over the world who are ready to take action.

The clan king would scold him every day.

At this time, King Jing became the target of public criticism. The King of Shu did not say anything, but King Chu said that the first country to be destroyed by the Chu Kingdom was the Jing Kingdom!

Before, someone in the clan would have come out to dissuade him. This time, the entire clan supported him.

The abolition of the imperial system would affect the lifeblood of everyone.

Everyone is an emperor, but you are great. If you quit and delegate power, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a son. What should we do?

This offended the public.

King Jing also knew something was wrong, so he wrote back to the old emperor, asking him to issue an order to make Jing a country without conquests.

This is impossible.

The old emperor's imperial edict was useful when he was alive, but useless after he died.

But if you look at the map of the Jing Kingdom, you will know how difficult it is to destroy the Jing Kingdom. The capital of the Jing Kingdom was located on a low plateau. The emperor abdicated and power was distributed to the people of the world. Everyone benefited and naturally worked together to resist the invasion.

Besides, as long as its own citizens do not rebel, it is difficult for a country to be engulfed, unless the country is very weak, and Jing State is rich and strong.

The state of Chu is strong and borders the state of Jing.

But don’t forget that the Tang State is still standing over the Chu State. The Tang State is very unhappy with Chu’s exclusive use of the Ataka Desert.

The five kings of South America also check each other.

Jing State has only two neighboring countries, one is Shu State, the country of ten thousand Buddhas, and the other is Chu State. The area bordering Chu State and Jing State is the Andes Mountains.

Shu's national policy is not to invade foreign countries. If Jing is invaded, they are likely to side with Jing and fight back against Chu.

Anyway, in Zhu Youhu's eyes, the situation in South America is not optimistic.

The Kingdom of Jing was not Zhu Youhu's last stop. He had to visit the royal families of the Malvinas Islands before he could return.

Ming Dynasty’s official visit to South America has come to an end.

The seventh eldest son Zhu Youchan and the eighth eldest son Zhu Youzhao of the prince's family did not go on missions in the 64th year of Jingtai because the central government needed help.

They would not go out as envoys until Zhu Youxu and Zhu Youxu returned to the Ming Dynasty.

It was already the end of the 64th year of Jingtai's reign when Zhu Youhu returned home.

This year, Ming Dynasty has truly achieved the flowering of culture and sports.

In the past, the old emperor always said that Ming Dynasty needs to walk on four legs. Real estate and stock market alone cannot support the economy of this huge country.

Population experts predict that the population of the Ming Dynasty will reach a terrifying 40 billion in the th year of Jingtai.

Employment is the biggest and most important issue.

In the 50th year of Jingtai's reign, a small financial crisis occurred. It was the old emperor who used internal funds to support Ming Dynasty through the difficulties.

What follows is a once-in-a-decade mini-financial crisis.

Thanks to the large population of the Ming Dynasty and the large number of vassal states, consumption alone can stimulate domestic demand and alleviate the crisis, so the crisis is not obvious.

What did Ming Dynasty do in response to the financial crisis?

Cool down the real estate market, increase hot money in the stock market, boost the stock market, increase industry, and increase employment opportunities.

But these are all big-level things and have little to do with the common people’s tea, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

Can it be ordinary people who play stocks these days?

Finally saved tens of thousands of dollars and invested them in stocks? That's not nonsense.

The real people are playing with funds, which have not yet been born in this era.

This concept has been born and appeared before, but the central government stopped it.

The only thing that affects the people is making money.

There is only one way to alleviate the crisis: spend money.

Money cannot be changed, and it is useless to print it. It just postpones the crisis.

If we want to completely solve the problem, we must develop new industries.

The old emperor always said that we walk on four legs, and the third leg is the cultural and sports industry.

Since the application of rubber, the old emperor has created football, basketball, volleyball, etc., and organized sports games, World Games, Ming Dynasty Games, etc., just to develop the sports industry.

As for the literary industry, novels, operas, stage plays, songs, etc. are all cultural industries.

In the 164th year of King Jingtai's reign, the old emperor reorganized all leagues and established the NBA Corporation. There were teams in total, divided into five regions, with teams in each region. A total of games a year, and finally compete for the championship.

The main reason why there are so many teams is that Ming Dynasty is too big.

Don't look at the 1700 million square kilometers of Big Goose. In fact, there are more than million square kilometers of frozen soil, which only has future value, and only about million of livable land.

There were many British colonies, but there were no people there, and they were too far away from the mainland.

The Mongol Empire was actually composed of four khanates and was not a unified country.

The Ming Dynasty is different. The Ming Dynasty is a unified single-ethnic country with a centralized territory of more than 20 million square kilometers and more than 15 million fertile lands. This is a real empire.

If you want to have one team in each province, there will be more than fifty teams, like six capitals, and the population will explode. It is normal to have two teams.

It is precisely because the old emperor has been cultivating sports talents for decades.

Basketball courts can be seen everywhere among the people, and there are people playing basketball everywhere, so sports culture is very popular among the people.

After the establishment of the NBA, the old emperor established a three-level league, amateur-professional-secondary league, for the development of folk sports.

Not to mention football, there are six in the Ming Dynasty’s First Division and twelve in the Second Division.

There are also boxing gyms, shooting industry, archery industry, horse racing, polo and so on.

Sports are a good way out for Daming children.

When learning is not the only way, many children will flock to the sports industry and train their own children to practice sports.

This formed a civilian training system.

Entering the professional league, there are also professional training methods.

Children who fail in sports can change their careers to become private trainers, or they can apply for behind-the-scenes jobs such as coaching.

After decades of development, Daming Sports has formed a very complete industrial chain.

Walking on the streets of Daming, you can see children carrying basketballs everywhere.

As slaves became enlightened people, sports became their only opportunity to get jobs, so a large number of blacks and whites poured into the sports industry.

This greatly squeezed the living space of Akito's children.

In the forty-fifth year of Jingtai's reign, there were calls from the public to ban black people from entering sports venues.

But was ignored by the center.

In sports, regardless of skin color or race, the strong comes first. This is the spirit of sports.

In recent years, black people have gradually taken over the sports field. In the three major football teams, black people are becoming more and more common. Some teams even refuse to recruit yellow and white people in order to win.

It is a big challenge for yellow families.

Either transform and go to school, or compete with black people on the same stage and use your own mental advantages.

However, when there are basketball games one after another, almost the entire venue is full, the tickets are soaring, and it is obvious to the naked eye that the seats are packed.

NBA, Northern League, Southern League, etc. have become the symbols of Ming Dynasty.

Stadiums are getting bigger and bigger, with more and more spectators. Naturally, players’ earnings are also rising. The money-attracting ability of sports has surpassed that of drama.

In Jingtai's 2.1 years, the NBA's total revenue was million yuan, setting a historical record.

In the following years, new highs were set one after another.

For example, the Beijing League A had a total revenue of 1.7 million in Jingtai's 2.7st year. In Jingtai's th year, its revenue exceeded the NBA, reaching million, making it the highest revenue among sports leagues.

This is just a microcosm of the sports industry.

The Ming Dynasty sports industry is very rich, with hundreds of sports, not to mention all of them are popular, there are a lot of them.

Martial arts, boxing, polo, archery, table tennis, badminton, tennis, softball, rugby, etc. are all popular sports among the people.

As of the 70th year of Jingtai, the total revenue of the Ming Dynasty sports industry exceeded billion.

This market is growing at an annual growth rate of more than 10%, and will definitely exceed tens of billions in the future.

Therefore, there are many children among the people who want to pursue sports.

There is no need for a whole country to train children, private families can naturally train their children to engage in sports.

There are also many competitions in Ming Dynasty.

Speaking of basketball, international competitions include the Olympic Games, the Men's Basketball World Cup, and the Asian Championships; domestically, in addition to the third-level leagues, there are also street ball leagues, college leagues, and middle school leagues.

Those who follow basketball will watch games basically every day.

Although there was no live TV in this era, you could read it through newspapers. Moreover, in order to take care of sports fans all over the world, almost every city had its own team, and every province also had its own cup competition.

Among them, the most well-run is the college league. Local people like to watch the college league the most because they can’t watch the NBA. They are busy and can’t buy a ticket to watch it in the provincial capital.

In any city in Ming Dynasty, there are at least two sports games every day.

The imperial court also spent money to build many football fields and basketball courts to encourage all people to exercise. If you feel itchy, you can play it yourself.

Naturally, it attracted parents from well-off families to guide their children in the direction of sports.

Therefore, there are many private training camps, and there are all kinds of training camps. Those who have been eliminated by sports turn to training camp coaches and pass on their experience to the children.

This kind of sports league must publish financial statements at the end of the year, which is to attract sports talents to participate and attract investment.

Twenty years before Jingtai, there were only two gymnasiums in Beijing. By Jingtai's 64th year, Beijing had 19 large gymnasiums and more than 100 small gymnasiums.

Small gymnasiums like that are basically converted from abandoned factories.

There are so many gyms, but there are still people who can’t get tickets.

Even though the stadium is occupied by black athletes, there are parents in Ming Dynasty who are willing to train their children to dominate the stadium with black people.

Ming Dynasty sports also put morality first.

Bad things like those in the NBA don't happen in Ming Dynasty. Once players go to nightclubs and are exposed, their careers will be scrapped.

Everyone is a good baby and speaks according to the press statement.

People of Ming Dynasty who were educated by traditional Confucianism pursued the pursuit of good governance and benefiting the world, rather than spending money to make money happy, which is the way of bandits.

Therefore, under the general public opinion, this trend is highly discouraged.

Therefore, those black sticks who look fierce in front of the media are all good babies, and what they are best at is giggling.

Then it was translated as honest and honest by fans.

This kind of giggly player has the most fans, which is in line with Ming Dynasty's social outlook.

The most important thing is that these black players also received a Confucian education. Even if there are bad kids who want to make money and indulge, they must be prepared to scrap their careers.

Don’t think that Ming Dynasty’s professional sports are short of people.

On the contrary, professional sports in Ming Dynasty are more difficult than taking the Jinshi exam.

In the 240th year of Jingtai, the entire sports industry has an estimated 200 million employees, and about million private children are seeking sports training and preparing to enter the industry.

Like a basketball team, because the playing time becomes one hour, a team has twenty players.

Sixty teams, only 1200 people.

Needless to say, if millions of people are involved in more than a thousand people, it will be like that.

The money earned by other leagues is not enough to make even one second of the NBA.

All of the tens of thousands of athletes in the Ming Dynasty Sports League are all good kids, not a single one is unique.

I have suffered the consequences of being independent before.

Many talented players said the wrong thing and their careers were scrapped; some smoked during interviews and their careers were scrapped; they were photographed drinking by paparazzi and their careers were scrapped...

An industry has even been born, professional fault-finding.

Because the sports industry is so complicated, every carrot is a pitfall, and if the front wave is not beaten to death, the back wave will not be able to get up, so they hired people to find faults, resulting in many people being framed.

So in the 64th year of Jingtai's reign, all athletes were interviewed with fake smiles on their faces, reading from the speech script, and answering questions that were all wrong and wrong.

Then left in a hurry.

Afraid of being caught.

He didn't even dare to complain privately. If someone exposed him, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, athletes say that this is an era for athletes to shut up. Whoever dares to talk nonsense will have his career ruined. Even if the media slanders them, they dare not refute. Who knows which sentence was wrong and they will be slapped.

Athletes not only have to risk their lives on the court, but they also have to be careful off the court to not get caught.
