Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 263

However, Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, canceled the post station naively... This incident made Gao Jingzong very speechless.The local government cut off communication with the central government, and the emperor who had a little appreciation dared not do this, but Chongzhen not only did it, but also did it thoroughly.In the hands of such a wise king, how could the Ming Dynasty not hasten its demise?If he does not cancel the post station, let alone whether Li Zicheng will rebel, at least the states and counties in the world will not lose control.

With free post stations, the local governments will report the local situation to the center in a timely manner. Through the post stations, the center can keep abreast of the latest developments in various places.Tang Minghuang ordered the post station to transport lychees in order to please Yang Guifei. Although it is a bit absurd, at least it can be seen that the Tang Dynasty's control of the place was at least efficient.The shelf life of lychee is only three days, and it can be arrived within three days from Lingnan to Chang'an, which is obviously not slow.

However, Emperor Chongzhen was so brain-dead that he canceled the post station. It cannot but be said to be a kind of terrible ignorance. Even if there were no natural disasters, no slaves to join the bandits, no peasant rebellion, the Ming Dynasty would not be able to get better under the hands of Chongzhen.

Although the post station system established by Gao Jingzong is not like the 25-mile post station in the Han Dynasty, there is a post station at fifty miles.Moreover, these post stations not only provide convenience for official exchanges, but also provide services for passing business travelers. Of course, there is a charge for this.In the public inn, business travelers can enjoy the service of being at home, but the price is not cheap.According to incomplete statistics, the profits of the 120 and two large and small inns under the Beifu Army's rule exceeded [-]%.Although he didn't make much money, Gao Jingzong established a complete communication system at the lowest cost.

In the post station at the ancient crossing of Maling in Siwu Mountain, there are actually more than 170 war horses that can be used for military and civilian transfers, more than 400 mules or donkeys, and dozens of healthy cattle.

What made Gao Jingzong even more speechless was that the Yi Cheng of this post station was really a genius. He used the natural hot springs of Siwu Mountain to build a row of indoor bathrooms for the entertainment of business travelers in the past, and also kept a group of musicians. and singing girls.

Behind the post station is a building about ten feet high, shaped like a tower, with exquisite sides, and the eaves of each floor are decorated with copper bells. When the wind blows, the bells sound clear and clear.The highest floor is just a rooftop with a radius of several feet, surrounded by fences only to the waist, and you can see the mountains and the mountains and the mountains and the mountains.

In this building, there are banks, teahouses, taverns, restaurants, brothels, casinos and other stalls. In the Siwushan post station, you can drink Sishui flower carvings, Lingnan fruit wine, Jiangnan rice wine, and grape wine from the Western Regions. You can eat grilled lamb with authentic grassland style, and you can eat sea bass that is not inferior to Jiankang City.This damn is no longer a simple hotel, it is simply a luxury leisure holiday hotel.

Gao Jingzong was lying in the bath, listening to the faint sound of silk and bamboo, he said to Ran Yu: "Silang, go and call this postman!"

Ran Yu said: "No!" Ran Yu plunged into the bottom of the water.

Gao Jingzong smiled helplessly: "Red Sleeve!"

The bathroom is as warm as spring, and the red sleeves of a light trousers hang down the first style.Gao Jingzong raised his head and was looking at Hongxiu's graceful body. Gao Jingzong suddenly remembered that it was very inappropriate to summon Yicheng in the bathroom.Gao Jingzong said with a smile, "Bring me a suit of clothes!"

Hongxiu turned and left.

Gao Jingzong looked down at the proud lower body, and immediately shouted: "I'm not angry!"

Ran Yu suddenly emerged from the water, and said, "You're just worthless!"

Gao Jingzong said: "Why am I so worthless?"

"Just accept it if you like it!" Ran Yu said, "I like Yunniang, so let her give birth to a son for me."

"What? Yunniang gave birth to a son with you?" Gao Jingzong said, "Did you give birth?"

"How can it be so fast!" Ran Yu said, "It will be next year at the earliest!"

"You, what a beast!" Gao Jingzong put the towel on his waist angrily: "Shame to be with beasts!"

Ran Yu retorted: "You are just too hypocritical!"

Gao Jingzong's eyes were about to burst into flames: "She's only 12 years old!"

Ran Yu said disapprovingly: "What's wrong with being 12 years old? You can have a son at 12 years old!"

Gao Jingzong said: "I'm going to kill you...you bastard!"

Ran Yu smiled and said, "I'll hit you three with one hand!"

"You...you..." Gao Jingzong roared, "Get lost!"

"Hypocritical, that's hypocritical!" Ran Yu said: "According to what you said, a bitch is hypocritical."

On the contrary, Gao Jingzong was not so angry, he explained too much and Ran Yu didn't understand.When Li Shimin's eldest son Li Chengqian was born, the eldest grandson queen was only 12 years old.This is a tragedy of the times, and it cannot be violated by one person alone.

Hongxiu helped Gao Jingzong comb his hair slowly, seeing Gao Jingzong's expression of displeasure, Hongxiu Tianxiang and the two women looked at each other, Hongxiu lowered his head, but Tianxiang said in a low voice: "It seems that the king has a lot of prejudice against our sisters?"

"You guys have misunderstood. Prejudice didn't exist before...nor will it ever exist in the future." Gao Jingzong said, "Why do you say that today?"

"It's my servant who saw that the king endured so much hard work," Hongxiu said with a smirk, "Anyway...anyway...that matter, we sisters can do it, why the king would rather bear it than us sisters, this is not a prejudice, what is this?"

"Uh...ah!" Gao Jingzong hesitated to speak for a while before shaking his head and said, "It's not a question of whether to do it or not. It depends on whether you have feelings or not. This is the biggest difference between humans and animals. Primitive desire... Desire is just an instinctive catharsis, but... a vague liking for someone does not mean that you must fall in love. How can there be so much love at first sight in this world? Did you fall in love with me when you first saw me? This matter... ...not... but... I hope you don't feel inferior to anyone you meet, understand?

Tian Xiang said blankly: "Why don't you be inferior to others? Some people are born to be sons and princes, princes and nobles. They are rich in clothes and food. They stretch out their hands for clothes and open their mouths for food. Some people are born as slaves and maidservants. They work more than cows and eat more than cows." Pigs are worse..."

"This is abnormal and unfair!" Gao Jingzong said: "I will change it slowly. I want to build a new world. In this new world, everyone is equal. If you want to eat Well, to dress well and live well, you must rely on your own hard work. But in such a world, it is impossible to achieve absolute fairness, because some parents are lazy or not smart enough, and their children will lose at the starting line! "

Gao Jingzong believed that it should be very easy to establish an absolutely fair world.When he was in Banxian Valley, he created an olive-shaped social structure. At the beginning, it was relatively fair and did what it could.Some people have little strength and create little value. Although they work hard, they get paid far less than others.If they are treated equally, it will dispel the enthusiasm of all staff.

In the process of human society, there is no absolute fairness, only relative fairness.

There are some things that Hongxiu Tianxiang may not be able to understand.But as Yicheng, he is obviously a talent.
