90: The development of the Northwest today is all the credit of Lao Jiu!

After the team passed through Shangzhou, it was basically a cement road that had been fully paved!

And the standard for building cement roads in the northwest is the standard of four lanes!

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's travel standards as the emperor, usually relying on the open road, the required passage width is also required!

The width of about two zhang is equivalent to six or seven meters in later generations, about the width of two carriageways!

The cement road built in Hanzhong is four lanes wide, so Zhu Yuanzhang's team basically occupies two of them!

And every two miles, there will be a responsible gendarmerie to maintain order, using a yellow line to separate the passage area of Zhu Yuanzhang's team from other lanes!

At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care!

The team can move forward in an orderly manner, which is naturally able to greatly speed up the speed of rushing!

But when he arrived at a place with a lot of people and traffic, Zhu Yuanzhang found that there were often traffic jams, and the whole team would stop from time to time!

"Jiang Ying, what the hell is going on? How do you stop and go? "

"How can there still be congestion on such a good concrete road?"

Zhu Yuanzhang soon became a little impatient, and immediately summoned Jiang Ying and asked him to go and find out the situation!

Soon, Jiang Ying, who ran to understand the situation, returned.

"Your Majesty, the reason why the front is congested is only because there are too many people watching the bustle!"

When Jiang Ying said this, he looked somewhat embarrassed.

"See the liveliness? What happened ahead? What's so lively and good-looking? "

Zhu Yuanzhang still looked dazed at first, and asked inexplicably.

"Oh... The main thing is that those caravans and ordinary people all want to be able to block His Majesty's dragon face..."

Jiang Ying could only bite the bullet and explain.

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Boy!

After talking for a long time, this is the one who looks at him Zhu Yuanzhang!

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little crying and laughing, and at the same time a little helpless.

Just like he came all the way, even if he made three orders and five applications, officials and ordinary people were not allowed to extravagantly welcome the drive, but they could not stop the people themselves from taking the initiative to make a scene!

He, Zhu Yuanzhang, would never give a decree, saying that everyone who makes fun must be questioned, right?

That's a joke!

"That's it, let our team have two roads and one road, make a way, it should be able to avoid congestion!"

Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to order Jiang Ying.

From the beginning of this trip to Hanzhong, Zhu Yuanzhang said that try not to disturb the people, and now there is congestion because he occupies two roads, so he naturally has to order to make a way out! 057

Of course, as for his physique that can become the biggest lively wherever he goes, Zhu Yuanzhang already has a certain immunity this way!

There's no way around it!

Soon, after adding a road that could be used by merchants and ordinary people, the road became much smoother.

The special gendarmerie traffic team set up on Hanzhong Road also cursed and cursed all the way, and barely dredged the congested road!

"Hurry up and go, don't you see that the road behind you is blocked?"

"And you, what to see? Hurry up and move out, don't wait and see! "

There are basically similar sounds along the way, and this situation basically did not occur before, but later I don't know why, the people are more and more like to watch the lively!

Where there are many people, you like to squeeze wherever you like!

In fact, the main reason is that today's northwest people no longer have to worry about their lack of food, and their days are getting better and better day by day, and they are running day by day!

To put it bluntly, it is too full to eat, a little support!

"People, once they are too full, they will have nothing to do, so watching the excitement has become one of the hobbies of these people!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the countless pairs of eyes looking at this side outside the car window, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing bitterly.

"This also shows that life is much better now than before!"

Concubine Zhou also concluded with a smile on the side.

"Yes, it's really getting better! These are all the credit of Lao Jiu! "

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded thoughtfully, this is his Zhu Yuanzhang gave birth to a good son, Lao Jiu has the ability, even his face as an old man has light!

Think of the beginning, during the reign of the tyrants, many ordinary people, one by one, hungry and thin, where can they all eat like now?

Nowadays, the situation of ordinary people starving to death in Daming is becoming less and less!

This is also thanks to the variety of high-yield crops that have been passed down from the Han Dynasty!

That is, potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes and other high-yield crops began to be promoted in a large area in Daming, so that today's people do not worry about eating!

That's right, it's prosperous!

Compared with a few years ago, Daming's grain harvest has doubled several times, even if there are occasional natural and man-made disasters in various places, but there are surplus grains in other places that can be supported!

No more worrying about people starving to death because they don't have enough to eat!

"Your Majesty, is there something you don't know if you should talk about (agdc)?"

At this moment, Jiang Ying's voice suddenly came from outside the car window.

"What do you want to say?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly.

"I don't know if His Majesty found a problem this way?"

"Even those merchants still wear cloth clothes outside the northwest, but after arriving at the northwest boundary, they have all changed into silk!"

"In Daming, merchants are not allowed to wear silk!"

Jiang Ying directly told the situation he found.

Jiang Ying said that Zhu Yuanzhang had also discovered this problem, but he chose to ignore it.

Shi peasants, industry and commerce, once in his Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, businessmen are the most lowly profession, when he was young and never became an emperor, he saw many profiteers bullying the common people in front of him, so businessmen in his eyes, are treacherous, for the rich and unkind!

This is also why the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, on the contrary, will emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce!

If it was before, Zhu Yuanzhang found that there would be merchants wearing silk in the northwest region, it would definitely be angry, but after deducing the life of Lao Jiu Zhu Li, he also gradually agreed with some of Lao Jiu's views and policies on governing the country.

Only when commerce prospers, Daming can collect taxes, and the development of the northwest side is also real!

Only by appropriately improving the status of businessmen, at least allowing them to enjoy the same treatment as ordinary people, can their business enthusiasm be stimulated!

Of course, there are many details and specific reasons in it, Zhu Yuanzhang can't see it in his dream, but he can feel that there must be other sayings in this!

"It seems that it is necessary to find Lao Jiu and talk to him about the businessman!"

Zhu Yuanzhang secretly decided in his heart, and also realized that his one-size-fits-all approach to businessmen seemed to be somewhat inappropriate!

And he seems to remember that the policy of commercial taxation on this side of the northwest is not the same as the regulations of the imperial court! (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )

The rule set by his Zhu Yuanzhang is that commercial taxes are one out of thirty, regardless of the size of the merchants, all are treated equally!

And the northwest side seems to be the richer the merchants, the larger the business, the heavier the commercial tax charged!

And those small businesses, or roadside vendors, don't even have any taxes, just pay some stall rent!

If it had been before, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely not be able to tolerate the existence of these situations!

But now the development of Hanzhong Mansion and even the entire northwest region has made Zhu Yuanzhang a little self-doubtful!

"Okay, there is no need to talk about this in the future!"

"The situation in the northwest region is different from other parts of Daming, as long as they don't wear silk to go out of the northwest, we don't bother to be happy to think with them!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and in one sentence he determined the nature of this matter, that is, turning a blind eye!

In fact, if you study carefully, many policies on the northwest side, especially many policies in the Hanzhong Province, are contrary to the imperial court!

From the abolition of the curfew at the beginning, to a series of reform measures involving household registration later, if it really wants to be discussed in the court, it will definitely make Lao Jiu the target of the entire court civil officials!

When Daming had just been founded, Zhu Yuanzhang had determined the yellow book system!

The so-called yellow book system, that is, the common people of the world are divided within one acre and three points of their household registration, and even the occupation must be hereditary!

Ordinary people are more than ten miles away from home, and when they are caught, they will be sent to the official palace to be beaten by boards!

And if you want to travel far, you must have a valid reason, and you also need to go to the official office to issue a road guide, and rely on the road guide to get on the road!

For example, if your Laozi is a military family, then the descendants and grandchildren can only be military families for generations!

Lao Tzu is a lang in the lang, and the children and grandchildren must also practice medicine for generations!

Fathers and daughters are slaves, and their children and grandchildren will be slaves in the future!

Under such a strict household registration system, Daming did maintain stability for a long time, and it also made it easier for the imperial court to control the local area, but at the same time, it also bred a lot of problems!

For example, because his wife was sick, a farmer's son had to carry his wife to a neighboring county more than ten miles away to find a local Langzhong for treatment, but it was too cumbersome to run to the county to open the way, and if you didn't give some benefits, the Yamen would not open it to you!

That filial piety took a desperate move, carrying the old mother on his back and running to the next county to find Langzhong, but he was arrested by the official errand, and finally the old mother was not cured of her illness and did not say anything, and she was also beaten and lost half her life!

If it is a disaster, such as a flood or drought, the people are displaced, and when there are a large number of disaster victims, the people can only leave their homes and wander around looking for a way to live!

In this case, the government is even more powerless to manage it, and the yellow book system is useless!

The imperial court also had to re-help relocate and evacuate these displaced people, which also consumed a lot of manpower and material resources, and may not be able to solve the problem!

However, under the reform of Lao Jiu, the Hanzhong Province abolished the yellow book system, and instead there were only three kinds of household registration in Hanzhong Province, one was the agricultural household registration, one was the urban household registration, and the remaining one was the military registration!

And farmers with agricultural household registration can also go to the city to work like ordinary people with urban household registration, and in addition to farming, they can also earn money by doing some work!

There are even farmers who can set up shop from business!

But there is only one requirement, that is, the farmland registered in his name must not be abandoned!

If it is found out, it is necessary to cancel the business license!

And urban household registration, basically there are units to work, Hanzhong Province has set up a variety of workshops and industrial zones over the years, and there are many jobs in them!

Like a policy like this, Zhu Yuanzhang knows it!

At the beginning, there were many voices of opposition in the court, mainly because those corrupt Confucians were not used to the deviant reform system of Han King Zhu Li, and once this system became popular, it would also affect the interests of these Confucian officials!

But in the same way, there are voices in the court that support this system, that is, the military generals headed by Xungui!

The officials of the Ming Dynasty could not engage in business, but the nobles still had their own industries, and Zhu Yuanzhang also turned a blind eye!

These policies of Lao Jiu have tasted the sweetness of these nobles who have business in private, and naturally everyone will support them!

Under a certain balance, coupled with Zhu Yuanzhang's favoritism, these reforms in Hanzhong were also implemented and continued until now!

Especially after Lao Jiu's fraudulent death, the civil officials also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would never allow anyone to target the orphans and widows of the Yang family and Zhu Xianqiu, so most of the civil officials also died down!

And after a long time, even many officials have established contact with the Hanzhong side in private, secretly supporting their own people to start business!

When everyone has money to earn and is profitable, who will come to tear you down?

So much so that later, the clan kings in various places also began to imitate and copy these policies of Hanzhong, and implemented them in their respective fiefs, and also achieved certain results!

The most representative is the Xi'an Mansion where King Zhu Shu of Qin was originally located, and the Beiping Mansion where King Zhu Di of Yan is located!

Xi'an Mansion will not say it, saying that it is the credit of Zhu Shu, it is better to say that it is all the credit of the Yang family.

Before Zhu Shu changed the fiefdom, a series of things in Xi'an Prefecture, Zhu Shu also followed the advice given by the Yang family!

The development of Peiping Province seems to be good!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt even more incredible about Lao Jiu's means!

This kid's ability to buy people's hearts in private is definitely not small!

As Xi'an Mansion got closer and closer, Zhu Yuanzhang also realized a rule!

The cement roads in the northwest are basically built in places with a lot of people and residents!

And even places that were originally uninhabited began to have vendors and buildings after the construction of concrete roads!

That is to say, these cement roads basically can't see that very desolate lot!

Unlike most of the official roads in the past, there are basically no villages in front and no shops in the back!

This also more and more verifies the feasibility of the phrase that you want to build roads first!

And the northwest side also has the advantage of commercial development, welcome the team of merchants sent to all over the world, always have to eat, always need accommodation, so many nearby people, will also come to this cement road to set up stalls, or open inns and the like, to make a little money!

"When all the cement roads leading to Yingtianfu on the Hanzhong side are opened to traffic in the future, the lots along this road will definitely develop rapidly!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be able to imagine what kind of scene this cement road will look like after it is opened to traffic from north to south!

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang only felt that his decision was too wise!

Finally, after a few days of rushing in Shaanxi, Zhu Yuanzhang's team finally arrived outside Xi'an Prefecture!

"Your Majesty, there are a few more miles to reach Xi'an Mansion!"

"Will you go directly into the city this time, or will you choose to camp outside the city?"

Before arriving in Xi'an City, Jiang Ying asked Zhu Yuanzhang again.

"Let's go into town. We also want to see how Xi'an City has changed today! Although the second kid is a little confused, the economic development of Xi'an Prefecture over the years is still good! This is all the credit of our daughter-in-law! "

In front of Jiang Ying, Zhu Yuanzhang did not directly mention Zhu Li's matter!

He really wanted to see what would become of Xi'an Mansion today?
