Villager of Daming

Chapter 754: Port Construction and Troop Training Gradually Transformed

What the chief was talking about was what happened during the uprisings in various places at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Before that, Goryeo sent troops to help the Yuan Dynasty fight, sending thousands of people.

As a result, Goryeo discovered something. The powerful Yuan Dynasty was about to end!So my heart was moved, and it was better to take action than to be moved. I started to attack three cities in a row.

The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty almost went crazy and clamored to send 80 troops to defeat Goryeo. Unfortunately, conditions did not allow it, and he finally forgave Goryeo.

Beings like this still think that they will always be willing to be vassals?
"Our Ming Dynasty cannot send troops to fight, but the Japanese pirates will fight. What a dilemma!" Zhu Biao was worried about state affairs.

"Your Highness, it's not difficult. Let's send troops to fight the Japanese pirates. Otherwise, after the Japanese pirates rob Korea, they will use the money they robbed to develop and grow."

"If we fight, we still need to send people there all the time, which is a waste of resources." Zhu Biao was still worried.

“Ask Goryeo to provide money, land, and people, and we will build docks in various coastal areas of Goryeo.

There are not many ships in Korea. If we have more ships, it is convenient to use their docks. They will help us build them, and we will send people over to direct and supervise the work.

If there is a dock, we will have a warehouse area and a supply area. By the way, we will do business with Goryeo in the dock expansion areas.

In fact, there is nothing good in Korea. The ginseng is from Changbai Mountain and is the same as the one sold by the Jurchens.

Or it's cod, we can catch it ourselves, and what's on the Yalu River is ours.

The local mineral resources are difficult to mine, especially gold, silver and copper. There is coal, but we are not short of coal. It is shipped from Korea to the United States, not from Henan.

The location of Dingliao Duwei has various good resources, including jade, and coal is smelted directly from the iron ore there.

The reason why we can't do this quickly in Dingliao Duwei is because of the shortage of manpower. We use the large peninsula of Goryeo as a springboard. "

Li came up with an idea, and in the name of helping Korea, the Ming Dynasty asked Korea to provide manpower and material resources to build the docks needed by the Ming Navy.

This wharf must be under the control of the Ming Dynasty. Goryeo also conducted overseas trade with the Yi people, especially porcelain, paper, tea, silk and other Ming products.

Waiting for the Ming navy to control the area around Goryeo, the Yi people will not be allowed to trade there directly, but only indirectly.

Koryo first sold things to the Ming Dynasty shops at the dock, and then the Ming Dynasty shops sold them to the Yi people. The same was true for the Yi people's things.

Zhu Biao listened intently, holding a piece of cucumber and pickles without moving: "Will Gao Li agree?"

"We can't directly say to send troops there, but to say help Goryeo build a navy to resist Japanese pirates. Their military strength is not strong, mainly because of the problems of generals and money.

If the generals are good, the army is well fed, and the military pay is high, the army can fight, otherwise the Ming army will not be able to fight.

Let's help them train their troops, instill in them the virtues of our Ming Dynasty suzerainty, and make them yearn for it. "

After the manager finished speaking, he quickly ate the box. The box with fresh leeks was not tasty when it was cold.

The others didn't care to listen, they were hungry!
Add the leek box to the mixed dipping sauce, which includes soy sauce, minced garlic, vinegar, fermented bean curd juice, and oyster sauce. However, the soy sauce is not salty, and the more you eat it, the more you like it.

Eat a bite of the box, eat some side dishes, and drink a sip of shredded radish soup, and you will feel full of happiness.

"Oops! Laba garlic, come on, someone, go to the other side to get Laba garlic, no need, I'll shout."

Zhu Xi took a few bites there and found something missing. He suddenly remembered that the taste of garlic was wrong. The minced garlic was raw and minced.

He came to the window and shouted over there: "Give us a jar of Laba garlic and pay the bill."

"Okay!" Someone shouted at the top of his lungs in Jubiqi across the street. The road is wide. The army must use this road at critical moments, and it leads to Xuanjin Bridge and Xihua Gate.

Accounts need to be kept separately, and taxes have begun to be paid on transactions. The palace's income this year exceeds the court's fiscal revenue, and it is no longer tax-free.Next year a large amount of agricultural machinery and equipment will be shipped to the two lakes and Guangzhou, plus the goods produced by the factory will be tax-free and the ministers will stop playing. Why does your emperor want so much private money?

If taxes and land taxes start to be collected, the government's finances will increase a lot next year.

The equipment sent to Lianghu and Guangzhou for farming belongs to official land, which is not what ordinary people pay. Official land is almost five to one tax.

For example, Ningguo Mansion, Taiping Mansion, and Yingtian Mansion all have two crops per year of planting and interplanting. With the addition of organic pesticides and fertilizers, the production and income are increased, and the land tax paid by the people does not matter.

It turns out that for a field with a tax of about 40.00%, not counting two crops, but a single season, the yield has increased by more than [-]%. It is different with pesticides and fertilizers.

The production increased by 40.00%, and the rent was paid according to the original fixed amount. The people even used grain to pay for the corvee.

Therefore, the importance of migrant workers has been highlighted, and local people no longer work for the government.

The government can only hire people with the food paid by the people. The local people do not make this money, they do other things.

The business accounts of the Xiaqiu Village and the Gongzhong Partnership must be clear. Tell the officials at the Ministry of Household Affairs that we ate the food ourselves and did not sell it. Don't look at the marks on the accounts.

In fact, the Ministry of Accounts will not really care about this thing. It is best to check the accounts of Xiaqiu Village and not make false accounts.

The factory has detailed accounts such as incoming orders, incoming orders, and outgoing orders, as well as the rate of defective products. If you want to cheat, you have to start from scratch.

It is convenient for Xiaqiu Village to manage itself, and it is also convenient for others to check the accounts.

Diagonally across from Jubiqi, someone ran across the street and handed things to the guards downstairs, and the guards brought them up.

"Yes, when it's green, it tastes better than when it's yellow or blue. Yellow garlic has less garlic flavor, while blue garlic is too spicy."

Zhu Xi opened the jar and scooped the Laba garlic into the plate with a slotted spoon. Others came over to pick up Laba garlic from the plate.

"If I had known I didn't use vinegar just now, I would have used this vinegar! This is dumpling vinegar."

Zhu Fan realized that he had made a mistake. This Laba vinegar tastes better, especially when dipped in stuffed food.

Everyone around nodded, yes, be careful next time, but it doesn’t matter, don’t waste it. After harvesting the Laba garlic, the vinegar in the jar was sent to the library, and the children ate it when they ate things dipped in vinegar.

If you continue to put garlic in it, the concentration of vinegar will become lower. When the concentration of vinegar continues to decrease, add garlic again, and the garlic will become smelly.

The prince took a bite of half of the garlic, frowned at the sourness, and then relaxed: "It's delicious. The Laba garlic is made on a large scale, and the price is lower than the price for people to buy vinegar and garlic. It's just troublesome to sell it individually."

"It's troublesome. People want to order more vinegar. Fortunately, there is no problem overall. There is a limit to how much garlic and vinegar can be put in a jar."

Seeing that everyone had finished picking up garlic, Zhu Xi picked up a few cloves himself and talked about selling Laba garlic.

Ju Biqi could not give glass bottles, nor would he give pottery bottles. Some people came to buy them themselves and took a bowl.

Put the bowl on the scale, check the weight first, then add as much garlic as you want, then scoop in vinegar and fill the top of the garlic evenly.

The people watched eagerly: "Please give me some more vinegar. I have to dip my dumplings in vinegar today. If I buy more vinegar, it will cost me more. Please give me some more..."

The salesperson at Jubiqi shook his head vigorously: "No! There is a quota. If I give you more, others will run out of vinegar when it's their turn. How about I weigh the vinegar for you separately?"

"Then what's the point? How can you buy Laba garlic without being jealous? Otherwise, I won't buy yours and I will make it myself." The common people shook their heads.

"I'll give you some more, okay?" The salesperson responded according to the format. She couldn't say, "Just do it!" 'In this case, Xiaqiu Village does not allow it.
