Daming: Spoilers about the future, Zhu Yuanzhang collapsed

Chapter 390, 3 sentences, is mind-boggling!

The city of Nanjing seems to have returned to its former prosperity.

However, compared with the previous indulgence and dissipation, with the arrival of Zhu Yuanzhang, this situation in Nanjing no longer existed.

Overall, it looks a lot more majestic.

The guards here in Nanjing City are also far more sophisticated than before.

Many of the many soldiers and horses that originally guarded Nanjing City were just fake.

It's okay to scare people on weekdays.

If you really take action, it won't work if you encounter a ruthless character.

Now the defenders here in Nanjing City are completely transformed.

Not only are military disciplines stricter, but their combat effectiveness has also become much stronger.

After reaching a certain position, one person can really influence countless people.

Zhu Yuanzhang is undoubtedly such a being.

It was also under this circumstance that the assassin who had high hopes from Dorgon entered the city of Nanjing.

They came in batches and changed directions on the way.

They no longer came from the north, but from the west or east. Two of them even made a big circle and went to the south.

Then come to Nanjing City from the south.

It can be seen that Dorgon has high hopes for these people and thinks that there is a reason why they can succeed.

Dorgon really didn't brag about these people.

It's indeed quite professional.

After these people entered Nanjing City, they quickly disappeared among the crowd and disappeared.

Like a drop of water, blending into the big lake, everything is so natural, without any ripples...

Zhu Yuanzhang and Han Cheng are also busy with their own affairs...

"Father, I think we should be able to abolish the maritime ban and open the Shipping Department."

In the Wuying Hall, Han Cheng looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said.

By this time, Jiangnan had mostly settled down.

The remaining people will not be able to jump for too long, and they will be eliminated by Zhu Yuanzhang with thunderous means.

Let Jiangnan be reborn.

The numerous gentry class were eliminated, and power was restored to the imperial court.

Although Jiangnan has not yet been completely pacified.

But Han Cheng believed that with the good situation achieved now and Zhu Yuanzhang's ability.

In the future, Jiangnan will be peaceful, there is no doubt about it.

Moreover, all the work of his Propaganda Department is now on the right track.

Gu Yanwu, Wang Fuzhi, Huang Zongxi and other backbones have also been trained.

These people are really capable.

Moreover, now in Jiangnan, the most dangerous moment here has passed.

So Han Cheng felt a lot more relaxed all of a sudden.

After some thought, he came to Wuying Palace to see Zhu Yuanzhang today, and talked to Zhu Yuanzhang about the establishment of the Shipping Department.

When Zhu Cixiang heard the words, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

At the same time, there are still a lot of worries and some confusions.

Although he came to Nanjing, he ascended the throne and became emperor.

Zhu Cixiang came into contact with more and more things, and gained many new understandings of the world.

I also know that there is quite a lot of money in the sea.

For example, the Zheng family, which was conquered by Grandfather Taizu, relied on their fortune from overseas and was very wealthy.

However, he still feels that no matter how rich you are overseas, your money will be limited after all.

It's just a small fight, it can't be brought to the forefront.

The one who is truly rich must be China!
This land is rich in products and inhabited by many people.

The largest source of income for the imperial court was tax revenue collected from the fields.

This is the most important thing.

Unexpectedly, with the great ancestor, he used thunderous means to clear the land and took over a lot of land for national ownership.

And distributed it to the people for farming, and established a new tax system, after a series of actions.

The imperial court already has a lot of money in its hands. Is the treasury full?

Why now... Consort Han suddenly found Grandfather Taizu and said such words?
Want to create extraneous problems at this moment?

Want to abolish the maritime ban and establish a municipal shipping department?
I remember that both the maritime ban and the abolition of the Municipal Shipping Department were all implemented by Grandpa Taizu back then, right?

If we do this now, wouldn't it mean that Grandpa Taizu would break his promise and slap himself in the face? !
Of course, although Zhu Cixiang had doubts in his heart, he did not ask these questions at this time.

He knew that he was too immature compared to Consort Han, Grandfather Taizu and others.

Faced with these things, it is better to listen more, learn more, and ask less.

Now is a good time for you to seize the time and learn more.

Since the consort Han, who is so magical and like an immortal, can talk about this matter to Grandfather Taizu, it must not be easy.

After hearing what Han Cheng said, Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded and said: "We have been thinking about this matter for the past few days.

I feel that we can indeed take this opportunity to abolish the maritime ban and re-establish the Municipal Shipping Department.

Sort out all these things. "

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that once this matter was done, it would definitely touch the interests of many people.

It will make many people jump in haste.

But so what?

It just so happened that Lan Yu and the others were leading troops to clean up Jiangnan and clean the house.

Might as well do this together.

It's best for those people to jump out and clean them up together!
To avoid having to do it again in the future, which is very troublesome.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard what Han Cheng said, he immediately agreed.

Not a moment's hesitation.

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Han Cheng also nodded.

I feel that it is not surprising that Zhu Yuanzhang agreed to his proposal immediately after hearing it.

On the one hand, he knew that his weight in the heart of Lao Zhu, his father-in-law, was getting heavier and heavier.

Zhu Yuanzhang would seriously consider many of the suggestions he made.

and implement.

Moreover, Han Cheng also felt that this was a good time to abolish the maritime ban and reestablish the Municipal Shipping Department.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is currently cleaning up Jiangnan.

The resistance to abolishing the maritime ban and re-establishing the Municipal Shipping Department is also on the Jiangnan side.

Once this kind of thing is done, it will inevitably cause many people heartache.

They may even resort to various means.

No matter when you dispose of it, it will cause quite a reaction.

There was quite a bit of trouble.

After all, cutting off someone's financial path is like killing one's parents.

There are many people in the south of the Yangtze River who live by smuggling and are very fat.

Since it doesn't matter when you do this, these people will jump and get confused.

Then it is better to take advantage of this opportunity and do this together.

Anyway, if there are too many lice, don’t bite them, and if you have too many debts, don’t worry.

One sheep is being herded, and two sheep are being driven.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was already determined to clean up Jiangnan. It would be too troublesome if he had to do it again in the future.

Regarding this matter, Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang hit it off!
Of course, there is another aspect to why Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy to abolish the maritime ban and reestablish the Municipal Shipping Department.

That is, now in Hongwu time and space, he is also preparing to implement this matter.

Now, if we implement it here first, we can also gain a lot of relevant experience.

In the future, when we return to the Hongwu period, we can do this better.

Another part of the idea is to try the water here in the late Ming Dynasty first.

Let’s see how much money you can make through the shipping company.

Is it really as profitable as Han Cheng said?

Although Zhu Yuanzhang initially listened to Han Cheng's words, and especially looked at the annual profit accounts of Shishi Ship Company in the early and middle Yuan Dynasty.

I have no doubt that Han Cheng said that foreign trade can gain huge wealth.

However, this matter was of great importance, and Zhu Yuanzhang still felt that it needed to be carefully planned.

Do it here first, seeing is believing.

This matter, which is extremely important to the Ming Dynasty today and will have far-reaching significance in the future, was finalized by Han Cheng and Zhu Yuanzhang in a few words and prepared for implementation.

After the two of them confirmed the matter, they turned to look at Zhu Cixiang.

Although Zhu Cixiang did not ask, Zhu Yuanzhang could still see Zhu Cixiang's doubts in his eyes.

Then he looked at Zhu Cixiang and said, "Cixang, I would like to talk to you about this matter.

But never underestimate overseas, let alone the sea.

These places really make money!
There is endless wealth overseas.

Didn't you see that many people in Jiangnan have made a lot of money and become extremely rich by relying on maritime smuggling?

Just like Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Chenggong and his family.

He is definitely a super wealthy businessman, with an astonishing amount of wealth in his hands.

They are just a microcosm.

In addition to them, there are many people on this side of Jiangnan.

They all rely more or less on smuggling to make ends meet.

This huge benefit has been taken away from us by these people for too long!

Over the past two hundred years, no one knows how much money has been lost!

This huge amount of money has been divided up by these guys!
Now that we are here, it is time to take back these things.

We can't let these insects steal anymore!
To tell you the truth, in our Hongwu Dynasty, we are also prepared to implement this matter.

And there are already charters.

After we finish here and go back, we will immediately start implementing this matter.

In our Hongwu Dynasty, the maritime ban was also abolished and the shipping department was reopened..."

"Grandfather, is this maritime trade really so important?"

Zhu Cilang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with some surprise and asked.

This matter was actually praised so highly by Grandpa Taizu.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Overseas, you should never look down upon it.

Many places are extremely wealthy..."

As he spoke, he told Zhu Cihong some of the overseas affairs he had received from Han Cheng.

In addition, he also told Zhu Cixang that during the Hongwu period, after being reminded by Han Cheng, he checked the accounts of the Shipping Department left over from the Yuan Dynasty, and the highest annual income he saw was 30 million yuan.

After Zhu Cihong heard what his great-grandfather said, he was stunned.

My soul was greatly impacted and shocked!
Actually... actually so rich? !

Establishing a municipal shipping department to manage maritime trade can actually earn so much in one year? !
The situation has been difficult for as long as Zhu Cixi can remember.

I know that his father is worried about money every day.

The treasury is very clean.

The imperial court couldn't collect taxes, so it had to spend money everywhere. Especially later on, the taxes collected every year were pitifully small.

As a result, now, the Shipping Department, which is just a foreign trade company, can actually earn 30 million yuan a year at its peak. What kind of concept is this! !
Zhu Cixiang was stunned by the impact.

Then the eyes will shine!

Just recently, he was still thinking that with the taxes from Jiangnan, the money earned by the Maritime Customs was nothing but a small profit.

It doesn’t matter if you want it or not.

But now, after hearing such words from Zhu Yuanzhang, his thoughts changed instantly.

Don’t think so anymore!

In this matter, I was really too reckless and too short-sighted.

If it hadn't been for what Taizu said, no matter what he thought, he would never have imagined that this seemingly inconspicuous little business company could actually make so much money!

Such a good thing must be set up!
The maritime ban must be abolished and a municipal shipping department must be established!
Whoever dares to stop him will have his head chopped off!

At this time, Zhu Cihong suddenly became the staunchest supporter of the abolition of the maritime ban and the re-establishment of the Municipal Shipping Department.

You don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are when you’re not a householder, but after you become an emperor.

Only then did Zhu Cixi know how much money it takes to govern a country well.

Today, Grandpa Taizu is here to take charge, and there is a lot of progress every day.

If Taizu hadn't been so resourceful, he would have been a great money-maker.

Just seeing the money being spent like running water in the treasury every day is enough to make his head ache.

Now after hearing what Taizu said about the income of this shipping company, Zhu Cixiang suddenly became excited.

This good thing must be produced!

At this time, Grandpa Taizu and the others happened to be here, so they could help implement it.

Things will become more secure.

This is the benefit of having ancestors’ blessings.

Many things go smoothly, and it is simply not comfortable to do them.

If Taizu and the others were not in charge, Zhu Cixiang was very sure that even if they put him in this situation, he would not be able to do many things.

“To set up a municipal shipping department, it is natural to have some relevant personnel.

We think Zheng Chenggong is very good.

It just so happens that the Zheng family is very powerful at sea and has many channels.

You can bring him in and ask him to help with this matter. "

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Han Cheng and said.

With some inquiries.

Han Cheng nodded and said, "Father, you are right to think so.

Actually I thought so too.

What should I say about Zheng Chenggong... He has been in this business with his father for a long time, and he knows this very well.

And he is also good at naval combat, not land combat.

It's really exciting to fight in a sea battle, but if you encounter a land battle, you'll probably have diarrhea easily.

When employing people, it is best to get them in the right position.

It would be perfect to use him in this aspect now.

It belongs to everyone to make the best use of their talents..."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Han Cheng's words, he was completely relieved.

Without hesitation, someone called Zheng Chenggong...

"The humble minister pays homage to Taizu Emperor Gao, pays homage to His Majesty, and pays homage to the Consort."

After Zheng Chenggong came to Wuying Hall, he saluted Zhu Yuanzhang, Han Cheng and others very respectfully.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to get up, then looked at Zheng Chenggong and said, "What's the situation in your family now?
Has your father given all the power to you? "

Zheng Chenggong heard this and said hurriedly: "Reporting to Taizu Emperor Gao, since that day, my father immediately wrote a letter to inform everyone in the Zheng family that Wei Chen became the new head of our Zheng family.

The power controlled by the Zheng family was also given to Wei Chen.

Make everyone obey the orders of the humble ministers.

Now I am the leader of the Zheng family..."

"Good good!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he smiled and praised.

"In that case, it will be easier to handle. We have something for you to do here.

I have called you here today to discuss this with you. "

Hearing this, Zheng Chenggong hurriedly said: "Emperor Taizu Gao, please tell me.

But if you have orders, I will not give up even if I die! "

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "It's not that dangerous. We are preparing to abolish the maritime ban and re-establish the Municipal Shipping Department..."

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he told Zheng Chenggong some of his specific plans.

"We know that you, the Zheng family, are proficient in this.

We don't have anyone who is too reliable here.

You need to worry more about this matter. "

After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Zheng Chenggong was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed.

He knew very well how tempting this job was.

The Zheng family itself made its fortune by doing business overseas.

We know very well how rich overseas are.

Originally they were just doing private business, but they were able to make so much money and expand their business on such a large scale.

Now Emperor Taizu Gao was preparing to reopen the Shibo Department and called himself over to do this.

From now on, many things can be done openly.

Business will be bigger.

But after being happy, Zheng Chenggong felt a little uncomfortable again.

He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Reporting to Taizu Emperor Gao, these things...if Wei Chen is asked to do them, Wei Chen will do his best to do them well.

But... But at this time when the country is in crisis and the Tatars invade, what I want to do more is to lead the good men of the Zheng family to go north to fight against the Tatars! Go into battle and fight!

Cut off the heads of the Tatars and drive the Tatars out of China! "

This is the truest thought in Zheng Chenggong's heart.

If his father, Zheng Zhilong, were here and heard that such a good job fell on him, he would definitely accept it with great excitement.

I was afraid that if I agreed too slowly, Emperor Taizu Gao would regret it.

But Zheng Chenggong is very different from his father.

He is not a pure businessman.

It's still okay to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and you have righteousness in your heart.

What I want to do most at this time is not to do business behind the scenes, but to kill the enemy!
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with Zheng Chenggong's reaction.

The more this is the case, the more it proves that Zheng Chenggong is indeed a person worthy of entrusting him with important tasks.

Immediately he said: "This matter is equally important.

In our opinion, it is more important than you going to the front to kill the Tatars.

Since ancient times, if a country wants to be governed well, the government cannot do it even if it lacks money.

Nowadays, I have a lot of work to do, and everything I do requires money.

Especially fighting against the Tatars would require even more money.

Now, by getting rid of these moths and starting to adjust taxes and other things, we have made a lot of money.

Now I can support the imperial court and do many things.

However, the number of borers is limited and it is impossible to keep killing them.

Therefore, we still need to find broader financial resources to supplement it.

Overseas is the most suitable.

In the future, whether it is fighting the Tatars or suppressing rebellion, we will need a lot of money and food to support it.

And the Shipping Department you are responsible for will earn a steady stream of wealth for our Ming Dynasty in the future.

With the wealth and materials earned by the Shibo Division, we can better support the many soldiers to fight the enemy bravely.

There is no need to worry about supplies and other issues.

Isn't this equally important?
He also participated in the killing of the Tatars, and his contribution was not small at all.

All wars have always been about logistical supplies.

Why was Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty able to conquer the world with one victory after repeated defeats?
Xiang Yu is just the opposite?
It's because there is Xiao He behind it!

And you, Zheng Chenggong, are our Xiao He!
He is also Cixi’s Xiao He! "

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang said these words, Zheng Chenggong's blood boiled visibly.

Many things fill my chest.

What did he hear?
Emperor Taizu Gao actually called himself his Xiao He? !

What a high honor this is!
Zheng Chenggong himself was loyal to the emperor and patriotic. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had such a special status, said such words.

And directly compared it with Xiao He.

The stimulation to him is simply, don’t be too strong!

The effect is definitely no less than when Zhu Di patted his second son on the shoulder and said to Zhu Gaoxu during the Battle of Jingnan, "The prince is very sick, so you should encourage him."

Zheng Chenggong didn't say anything and knelt down directly to Zhu Yuanzhang!

He accepted the job in one fell swoop.

He also said that he would do his best to establish and operate the Shipping Company, even if it meant ruining his life!

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang stepped forward and personally helped Zheng Chenggong up, telling him not to be polite.

He held Zheng Chenggong's hand and said, "It's not necessary for me to be so devastated.

We want you to live a good life and live a long life so that you can do more things for our Ming Dynasty.

My Ming Dynasty is full of waste and there are too many insects.

And you are a bright spot we discovered!
We don't want you to have any accidents, and you can't be so desperate when doing things in the future.

You need to consider your own safety..."

It was okay if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say this. Once he said this, Zheng Chenggong became even more determined.

In the future, we must serve the imperial court well.

I will definitely live up to Taizu Emperor Gao’s recognition of me and the kindness of knowing him!

Han Cheng was on the side and took all of this into his eyes.

I couldn't help but sigh secretly, this Lao Zhu really deserves to be Lao Zhu.

The one who conquered all the way and conquered the world.

This way of governing one's subordinates is simply perfect.

There is no need to do anything else, just say a few words to make a being like Zheng Chenggong scream with excitement.

I just wish I could tie my head to my belt immediately and serve the Ming Dynasty to the death!
This ability is really not something that ordinary people can learn.

Zhu Cixiang was also on the side, watching these carefully.

There was a bright light in his eyes.

It can be seen that he is eagerly learning the skills of his great ancestor...

After some discussions, the matter was finalized.

There is no doubt that there will be some disturbances in Jiangnan next...

After the discussion, Han Cheng returned to his place of residence.

And at this time, an extra person appeared at the door of the place where Han Cheng lived. This was an assassin... (End of Chapter)
