Chapter 298 My Dayuan is also Prosperous

[In the process of entering the Central Plains and destroying the Southern Song Dynasty, the advanced political system and economic development mode of the two Song Dynasties were forced to be restrained, and the Han culture showed a retrogression trend]

[But the great unification brought by the Yuan Dynasty promoted the cultural integration of Mongolia, Jurchen, Khitan and other ethnic groups to a certain extent, and provided a certain foundation for future dynasties and cultures. Overall, it has certain advantages]

Looking at the words on the light curtain...

Kublai Khan really felt that it was better not to be on this list, and he felt that they were all criticizing him.

[As a conqueror, Kublai Khan had great achievements and achievements, swept across the Eurasian continent, surrendered wherever the iron cavalry went, and achieved the strongest voice of that era]

[The expansion of the territory has reached unprecedented heights, and a huge and admirable empire has been established, laying a certain territorial foundation for future emperors]

[Promoted the great unification of the world, ended the split pattern of Song, Jin, Xixia, Dali, etc., and established the Penghu Inspection Department to manage Penghu and Taiwan, and once again confirmed that this area has been the inherent territory of the Central Plains since ancient times]

[However, as a ruler, in the process of implementing policies, there are mixed reputations. He can listen to the opinions of his subordinates, has superb employment skills, reasonably arranges different talents to build a new empire, firmly grasps the initiative, has a big heart, and is not good at playing tricks wrist】

[However, he was too impatient and eager to realize the plan he built, which led to increased dissatisfaction. In the military, he was also too strict with the soldiers, which led to occasional turmoil within the empire]

Kublai Khan's face couldn't help twitching a few times.

Other emperors are just boasting, but how they got here is basically a criticism.

[After the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the absorption of Han culture was beneficial to the administrative organization, and the establishment of provinces, creating the end of the "provincial system"]

[Establishing the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Encouraging Agriculture and other institutions that specialize in agriculture, use the performance of persuading agriculture as the main criterion for assessment, and have people edit the "Nongsang Collection" and publish it nationwide, which promotes the prosperity and development of agriculture, and has a great impact on the economy of the Central Plains , promotes political stability]

【Invented banknotes and distributed them throughout the country. As a financial foundation, it laid the foundation for the use of banknotes. However, because the subsequent managers ignored the reality and issued banknotes indiscriminately, the credit of banknotes collapsed】

[In order to cope with the famine years, the state purchased surplus grain in good years and stored it in state warehouses. When the famine years came, it responded to the rise in grain prices. It also organized public relief for old scholars, orphans, sick and weak, and improved the social welfare system. 】

[Adopt a policy of freedom of belief in religion, but prohibit religion from overriding the imperial power. Those who inherited the ancients and inspired the future have contributed to the suppression of theocracy by the imperial power in the Central Plains, ensuring the diversity of religions and the prosperity of ideological exchanges.]

Looking at these four lines of words, Kublai Khan was so happy, and finally fully praised him.

It's not easy!

[Looking at the entire history of the Central Plains, it can be regarded as one of the great unified emperors, a rare conquering emperor, a generation of heroes, and his military achievements are not inferior to Tian Khan Li Shimin]

See reviews for yourself...

Kublai Khan could only say that he felt comfortable all over his body, just like drinking a glass of cold water in midsummer.

But Li Shimin was obviously not that comfortable.

Although Kublai Khan's military achievements are not inferior to him, even higher than him.

But being compared with Li Shimin, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

Just putting their real Han people in the lowest class makes them uncomfortable.

When did the status of their Han people become so low!
Zhao Kuangyin thought about it for a while, and it is true that during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, some people regarded the Han people as four-horned sheep.

This was the most aggrieved time for the Han people, so he swept away the world and unified the Central Plains to prevent this kind of thing from happening again.

Unexpectedly, more than 300 years later, the people of the Central Plains will repeat the same mistakes again.

"I said, emperors, when I was in power, the situation was actually not that bad!"

Kublai Khan wiped the sweat off his brow. Even though he had the largest territory, it did not mean that his achievements were the highest.

Among so many emperors present, there are several people with higher achievements than him.

Coupled with the unanimity of these people to the outside world, this made him feel very stressed.

"Oh, it's not that bad? Why don't you come and listen?"

Zhao Kuangyin sneered, and asked, "I don't know if you have restored the economic level of my Song Dynasty."

"How is the development of agriculture?"

"What about business? How about handicrafts, manufacturing, and military-related manufacturing?"

Compared with the territory, he can't compare with anyone.

Comparable to the economy, except for the Tang Dynasty who can wrestle with him, the rest are basically not as good as his Da Song.

When it comes to the economy, he has absolute confidence.

Kublai Khan wiped off his sweat, "Of course it's not as prosperous as the Song Dynasty, but our development is not too bad!"

"Agriculturally, I promulgated many policies beneficial to agriculture, and opened up the land to promote the development of agriculture."

"In addition, cotton, a textile crop, shined brilliantly, and textile technology was greatly improved, and agricultural books such as "Nong Sang Collection", "Nong Shu", "Nong Mulberry Clothing and Food Summary" were compiled."

"I also built a lot of water conservancy facilities, and set up the Metropolitan Water Supervision and River Canal Department to manage water conservancy, which facilitated the cultivation of rice fields."

"Using a variety of planting techniques to expand the area of ​​rice cultivation, and invented many water conservancy planting tools, such as seedlings and claws!"

When talking about his achievements, Kublai Khan finally regained some confidence.

"In terms of business, I lowered the business tax to protect the interests of businessmen, and attracted many foreign businessmen to do business."

"And actively develop maritime trade outwards. Tea, porcelain, and some fine handmade products are exported overseas, and new species from other places are brought back through overseas trade, expanding the scope of business."

"The Grand Canal was dredged again, roads were built, commercial exchanges between the north and the south were strengthened, and a convenient transportation environment was provided."

"We have also set up large and small post stations to ensure the accommodation and safety of businessmen coming and going."

"I also set up the Shipbuilding Department to manage foreign trade. The navigation technology is highly developed, the shipbuilding industry is prosperous, and the use of the compass allows sea routes to go further. Our Yuanda is a well-known bustling city!"

"Military, hehe..."

Speaking of military affairs, Kublai Khan suddenly smiled proudly: "With such a large territory, you will know how powerful my military is."

"We have greatly increased the scope of gunpowder in the military, and have used the prosperity of navigation technology and shipbuilding industry, as well as the help of domestic water transportation, to establish an excellent water combat team!"

Hearing these words of Kublai Khan...

Zhao Kuangyin snorted coldly, "It's so nice to say, I want to know how much of the world's total economy you have revealed?"

He poked his ears, "We Da Song accounted for more than half of it, you can't even have one-third of it!"

But this question, Kublai Khan has no way to answer.

[The economic aggregate of the Yuan Dynasty cannot be calculated due to the confusion of measurement, but in the increasingly prosperous world trade, it reveals a share of about one-third]

[Although it only existed for 98 years, the development of commerce in the Yuan Dynasty was quite prosperous, not inferior to the late Ming and Qing Dynasty]

[However, due to the low commercial taxation and the main part of the national taxation, and the high agricultural taxation, the agricultural industry was abandoned in the later period, and land mergers developed rapidly, resulting in chaos in the world]

[In addition, fewer victories at sea and more defeats]
