Five years of garrison on the border, shocked Zhu Yuanzhang who went south to inspect

Chapter 204 About developing the prairie!

"In that case, why does he let women dance in front of everyone?"

"Your Majesty, you wrongly blamed Prince Su!"

Yao Guangxiao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "When King Su was in Jin, every time he got a treasure, he thought of presenting it to the emperor. Mongolian tribes sent five hundred beauties. King Su never forgot about the emperor and wanted to send these beauties to the emperor. Go to the palace."

"Really?" Langdon laughed.

"I dare not lie to you, His Highness Prince Su really thinks so.

It's just that he was too excited to see the emperor today, that's why he did this. "

"Yes."

After listening to Yao Guangxiao's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's face finally looked better. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I understand. You go and tell that guy Zhu Tuo that I want to see him."

"As ordered."

Yao Guangxiao accepted the order, bowed his head and left the hall in a hurry.

When he arrived at Prince Su's Mansion, Yao Guangxiao recounted his conversation with the emperor exactly as it was, and then lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, you are in the capital now, not the Kingdom of Jin. You still have to be careful about everything you do and what you say."

"Don't worry, I've always been cautious."

Zhu Tuo waved his hand, and then said: "Guangxiao, such a vicious oath is not a good thing."

"What's wrong? My whole family has been killed." Yao Guangxiao said nonchalantly: "The emperor just invited you to come to the palace for a brief talk. He wants to discuss something with you."

"What's going on? My ass is still there!"

Zhu Tuo warned carefully.

"Don't worry, King. The King doesn't mean to embarrass you. Judging from his expression, he must have something very important to tell you."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Zhu Tuo came to the palace, saw Zhu Yuanzhang, bowed and said with a smile: "Father, I wonder why you called me here?"

"Yes, after we formed an alliance with Mongolia, didn't we get a hundred miles of land? What do you think of those places?" Zhu Yuanzhang said, and then added: "This dynasty plans to adopt a military service system to gradually move the people to the border areas. ."

"Father, how can this be done?"

"Really? How could this happen?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very confused about this, because after experiencing a great chaos in the late Yuan Dynasty, the north of the Ming Dynasty was already full of talents, and the economy was also very depressed.

So he thought of a good idea. Anyway, there are not many people in the north, so it is better to let the people in the south migrate to the north.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang moved a large number of people from the south to the Hetao in the north.Their status is permanent and hereditary, and their descendants can work here.

Now, there are about 10,000+ people in Daming.

Zhu Tuo said: "Father, instead of stopping it, it is better to let it go. Even if the people are moved to the border, if they have no ability to survive, they will leave sooner or later."

Zhu Tuo, who is familiar with history books, naturally understands the shortcomings of soldiers, that is, they have very few fields and are often occupied by others, especially in the Hetao area. Many soldiers cannot stand the loneliness and will eventually leave the soldiers. Wandering in the rivers and lakes.

"Even if they run away, where can they run? Also, I gave them fields, why would they run away?"

"Serve the government and pay taxes for the government. If it were me, I would run away." Zhu Tuo clapped his hands and sighed: "When it comes to military service, the thinking is too backward, there is nothing new, and the approach is too old-fashioned. I don't know which expert came up with this idea, Dangdang dragged it out and killed it."

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that the strategy he had worked so hard to come up with was just nonsense in Zhu Tuo's mouth?
Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, pointed at Qin Haodong and cursed: "You incompetent son, if you don't give me a satisfactory answer, I will definitely make you walk away without food." For some reason, when Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Tuo, he I couldn't help but get furious.

Zhu Tuo said proudly: "I did have a few foul words."

Zhu Yuanzhang said doubtfully: "What else can you think of?"

"Easy, trade!"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Business?"

"Yes, trade. If trade is related to Mongolia, then this matter is very promising!"

"Then, tell me how we should act!"

Zhu Tuo raised his head and glanced at him, frowning and thinking, silent for a long time.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but said: "What can you do? If there is no way, just follow the method I said and slowly move from the south to the north to expand the territory.

how many people? "

Zhu Tuochang sighed: "Father, what I'm worried about now is how to make you understand what I want to say."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him fiercely, and subconsciously wanted to untie his shoes. This guy must have an itchy butt again.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's actions, Zhu Tuo immediately said: "Father, there is a bright future in business. The core of trade is the flow of currency. We sell goods to Mongolia. Mongolia's economy is in our hands, and they will obediently Follow our Daming's orders."

Zhu Yuanzhang was confused. Why didn't he understand what Zhu Tuo was talking about?
Zhu Tuo continued: "Trade can not only choke the Mongols' necks, but also have two major benefits for the Jin region. First, it can speed up the development of merchants and promote the growth of national power; second, we can use trade to Promote our culture to Mongolia, oh, and we must spread Cheng Zhu’s ideas to Mongolia as soon as possible.”

"I think that old man Huang Zicheng is quite good. Why don't we let him come to Mongolia, teach me some truth, and bring me Mongolian wisdom."

"Do you want revenge on me?"

That old guy Huang Zicheng. He is a man of erudition and well-read. What he is best at is training those kind-hearted Mongolians on the prairie. "

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, it's better to let young adults do such things."

"Then invite Qi Tai. Qi Tai is physically strong and can endure hardships on the prairie. When it comes to imparting knowledge, only he can do it."

"No, Qitai is too old-fashioned. It's better to let someone who can bend and stretch to complete such a task."

Zhu Tuo looked helpless, "Father, who do you think we should send there? The war in Jin has just come to an end. Our Ming Dynasty has annexed so many territories, so there must be someone in charge."

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment, stroked his beard and said, "I think this matter can be left to your confidant Yao Guangxiao."

"Yao Guangxiao!?" Wang Chong's heart moved and he asked in a deep voice.Zhu Tuo was startled and quickly shook his head and declined: "No, no, father is joking. Except for Yao Guangxiao, everyone else can participate."

"What?" Lu Xiaofeng said, "Do you miss him very much?" "

Zhu Yuanzhang winked at Zhu Tuo and said: "Yao Guangxiao has lived in Jin for a long time and knows the situation in Jin very well. Moreover, he has always presided over the political affairs of Jin and is very aware of the people below, so he is doing things here, just like It’s just a swimming fish, why not?”

"Well, Yao Guangxiao is really capable, and the most important thing is this person.

"And he also has some scheming. From what I've seen in his behavior, he always thinks first before taking action. It's perfect to come to Jintu to take charge of the overall situation."

"Yeah, I don't want to admit it, but what he did was wrong, so I can't say much."
