Moreover, the collection of grain in these two places is not the same as that in the mainland of Daming.
The food in the interior of the Ming Dynasty, in the south, is said to be two seasons a year. Even if the common people can eat enough for themselves, there is not much left.
However, when the grains of Java and Majapahit are harvested, three crops a year is normal, and some other grains are mixed in the middle, and four crops a year is not impossible.
In addition, it is still close to the sea, and there is no shortage of fish or other things. The common people can't finish eating by themselves. What else can they do except sell it to the government?
But the officials in the south of the Yangtze River are collectively feeling ashamed—even if everything seems to be fine in Daming, who can guarantee that Emperor Chongzhen won't suddenly move his capital with a flick of his head?
In case that God of Killing is really motivated by rumors to move the capital, will the big guy's life still be over?
During the more than half a year from the autumn of the 11th year of Chongzhen to the summer of the [-]th year of Chongzhen, how many officials have been killed in the land of Jiangnan?
Moreover, this matter cannot be clearly written to Emperor Chongzhen.
Don't tell me that you, an old man, are going to move the capital just by being fooled?Said that the emperor guards the gate of the country?
Why don't you let the emperor move the capital to Nurgan Dusi! ?
Of course, it is enough to think about these words in your heart. As for speaking them outright, forget it. After all, no one thinks that he has lived too long and wants to seek death.
The officials in Jiangnan had a headache, and Zheng Zhilong, who had already traveled far to Africa, also had a headache.
The previous military exploits and the discovery of Xinming Island, together with the discovery of the African continent, allowed Zheng Zhilong to be named Chen Guogong, who was descended from generation to generation after three generations.
Along with several other younger brothers, Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Zhibao, and Zheng Zhifeng were also named marquises.
But when Zheng Zhilong, who was in a good mood, took his South China Sea Fleet and ran to the African continent, intending to find out the situation in the African continent, he felt what it feels like to be a pain in the ass.
The one with the long neck is the unicorn, right?Why is this dog-like thing so fierce?Dare to be tough as a lion?
Isn't elephants unique to those barbarian countries in Southeast Asia?Why is it here, and everywhere?
Swamp everywhere?A big snake that haunts from time to time?And this big tree that can only be hugged by a few people?How many hundreds of years has this damned wood grown like this to grow into this virtue?
Don't those barbarians here need to farm?
It was so hot last time I came here, why is it still so hot now?Isn't there spring and autumn and winter?
After soaking in the pond and sighing comfortably, Zheng Zhilong asked, "How is everything buried?"
Zheng Zhifeng, who was also soaked in the water, said, "Don't worry, brother, everything has been buried.
Except for those things from the Yongle period that His Majesty gave us, they were all buried to the side, and the rest were buried indiscriminately. Basically, the places we have found out have already been buried. "
After Zheng Zhilong scooped up a full ladle of water and poured it on his head, he wiped his face and said, "Just bury everything. From now on, this land will be the territory of Ming Dynasty since ancient times."
Zheng Zhihu also poured water all over his head, and after a piss, he said: "Since ancient times, the territory has been so hot? This damn weather, when will it be snowed and cool down?"
Zheng Zhilong said: "Let's wait slowly, I guess when we come here, it will be just in time for the beginning of summer in this ghost place, just wait a few months for winter."
Zheng Zhihu said: "I want to go to Xinming Island, it's better than dying in the sun here, and I can't find a barbarian who can beat me."
Zheng Zhifeng said with a smile: "Speaking of which, there are no barbarians who can fight, but there are barbarians who can run everywhere. The barbarians here run so fast that they can't even catch up with the bullets of firecrackers!"
Hearing Zheng Zhifeng's words, Zheng Zhihu didn't say anything, Zheng Zhilong's face darkened first: "These damn barbarians can't find anyone when they run away, and they don't know how many years they want to clean up. Our brothers The rest of my life is thrown in!"
After nodding his head, Zheng Zhihu said: "That's right, that's right. If this goes on, when will we be tall? Let me tell you, those guys from the Southern Imperial Forest Army should be brought here to accompany our brothers."
Zheng Zhifeng shook his head and said: "Don't think about it, the guys from the Southern Yulin Army are still cleaning up the natives and the remaining barbarians there in Luzon, and they can't come here before they are done."
Zheng Zhilong said resentfully: "Speaking of which, the old man Nan took a big advantage. Those Dutch barbarians didn't beat them, and those who surrendered simply surrendered. There were no barbarians left in Batavia, so they took over directly. That's it."
Zheng Zhifeng said: "This is fate. Admiral Nan spent his whole life in the sea, and when he was old, he met a wise king like His Majesty, and finally made it through."
After finishing speaking, Zheng Zhifeng changed the topic again, and said with a smile: "I don't know how Tang Wang and the others are doing on Xinming Island? I miss them a little bit."
Zheng Zhilong said: "What else can I do, it is the end of autumn in Xinming Island, and it is going to snow soon.
There are no savages on the island. Aren't these guys hiding in the house and waiting for the winter? "
Sneezing, Zhu Yujian wrapped the clothes around his body and muttered, "It's windy again!"
Zhu Cunji laughed and said, "Maybe it's some Daming lady who is thinking about Uncle Wang?"
Zhu Zhuohong followed suit and said, "Maybe it's some popular Qing Dynasty official who waited until Uncle Wang went to comb it, thinking too hard?"
After a bah, Zhu Yujian said: "You two bastards, you can't spit ivory out of a dog's mouth!"
After cursing, Zhu Yujian continued: "The situation on this island is basically the same now, we can try to push further inside."
Zhu Changying said: "What Uncle Wang said is that it's not a good idea for us to stay near the coast all the time. Someday some barbarians will pass by here and conflict with us."
Zhu Yujian glanced sideways at his nephew, who was much older but less courageous than himself, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter to the barbarians, I'm not afraid of them coming, but I'm afraid they won't come.
The problem now is that we are on this side, but there are no people to cultivate such a large area inside, so I always feel uncomfortable. "
Zhu Zhuohong said: "Uncle Wang's thinking is good, but there are not enough people here. There are only so few people, and the land around the edge has not been fully occupied yet, so you still want to go in?"
After hearing Zhu Zhuohong's words, the faces of Zhu Yujian and others darkened.
The people on Xinming Island may be fake people, otherwise, how could they all farm in peace during the Ming Dynasty, and think about mining when they arrived on Xinming Island?
Yes, mining and collecting coal pay a lot of wages, but you can't just think about earning money and forget about farming, right?
It's all gone to dig charcoal, who will plant the land?If no one farms the land, where can we get food?
In the early years, he was still able to sell some grain to Emperor Chongzhen. In the 11th year of Chongzhen, the grain on Xinming Island was only enough for himself and there was no surplus.
And it's not possible to lower the wages for digging charcoal because of this, right?No one digs charcoal, and it will be a big trouble when Emperor Chongzhen blames it!
After thinking for a while, Zhu Yujian said, "Otherwise, let's ask His Majesty? See if it's on Daming's side?"
Hearing this, Zhu Cunji said in a rather depressed manner: "Back then we thought about whether His Majesty would seal us off, and then let us go back to the country to stay, but now it seems that it's all in vain. Little man!"
Zhu Yujian also had a headache and said: "That's not a problem, the problem is that His Majesty doesn't care about us now, has he forgotten us?"
PS: The second update is delivered, and today's two updates were promised yesterday.
Chapter 559 The Role of Raising a Dog
Facts have proved that when Zhu Yujian and others are needed to sell their blood, Emperor Chongzhen will definitely not forget them.
But in the harem, there were a few delicate and beautiful women waiting for him to favor him, and there were no major events outside, and these vassal kings were not needed, so Emperor Chongzhen forgot about them.
After returning to the capital from Nanjing, it has been three or four days. Emperor Chongzhen has not gone to the harem to take a look at these delicate beauties. Naturally, he is not in a good mood. Where is the time to study these salted fish? Same prince.
When they arrived at the Kunning Palace where Empress Zhou lived, Emperor Chongzhen teased the daughters and sons who had come to greet him first, and didn't mention the beauty girl at all.
