Domineering Daming

The administration of officials was too complicated, some of Sun Chuanting's words required Zhu Xu to ponder carefully, and it took Zhu Xu nearly two hours for this part alone.

When I looked up, my eyes went dark, my head felt dizzy, and I felt like vomiting.

The inner eunuch who was not far away saw Zhu Xu holding the table, his expression was painful, and he was shocked. He hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, are you alright? This servant will go to the imperial physician."

Before he could walk out the door, Zhu Xu sat up, exhaled, and said, "Okay, come back. Where's Eunuch Liu?"

The inner eunuch ran over and saw that there was no change in Zhu Xu's face, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Back to the emperor, Eunuch Liu has gone to the cabinet. Siam and Burma sent envoys to plead guilty, and Sun Shoufu is receiving them."

Before Zhu Xu canonized the crown prince, the kings of these two countries had never entered the capital, so Zhu Xu made a decree to reprimand him.

It's just that it may not take too long to go back and forth this time, it actually took nearly half a year!

This is the result of Lu Xiangsheng's training in Yunnan and threats.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, calmed himself down, his eyes narrowed slightly, with a cold light shining.

In the southeast peninsula of Ming Dynasty, the most ambitious is Burma, which fought against Ming Dynasty for nearly half a century decades ago.

The current king is also a very capable monarch and is pushing for reforms. The national strength of Myanmar should not be underestimated.

Siam is even more unusual. Not long ago, it annexed Nanzhang and Phnom Penh, and was later attacked by the Ming Dynasty because of its rapid expansion and internal instability.

It can be said that these two countries are temporarily forbearing, and have not yet truly surrendered.

Jin Yiwei, the Military Intelligence Department has been infiltrating, constantly wooing Qinming, opposing the current king's forces, and supporting the rebels to varying degrees.

These two countries should have been aware of it long ago, but facing Ming's continuous display of muscles, the two countries are in turmoil, so they can only temporarily bear it and wait for the opportunity.

"Don't worry, don't worry..."

Zhu Xu whispered to himself, then raised his head to look at the inner supervisor and said, "Tell the chief assistant, order the Minister of the Ministry of Industry to accompany them, and find a way to persuade them to plan two routes to the two countries with Daming's funding."

The inner eunuch didn't understand the difficulty, so he responded quickly and left the palace to go to the cabinet.

Zhu Xu knew the difficulty of this matter, but as long as the Ming Dynasty cultivated far enough, it would be of great help in the future.

Zhu Xu ignored the things outside and continued to watch.

The second part of Sun Chuanting's speech is "agriculture". This part is more complicated than the official administration, and the length is not small.

From the "land", all aspects are derived, including the basic acres, population, and then irrigation of farmland, machinery, livestock, and then food tax, food price, circulation and so on. Sun Chuanting listed an ambitious grand plan .

Not only to deal with the immediate disaster, but also to look forward to the future development.

There are many things that are eye-catching, such as the demand for centralized land reclamation in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and the large-scale clearing and division of the imperial land of the Ming Dynasty and the fields belonging to the cabinet.

The fields controlled by Zhu Xu and the Ministry of Households are more than 1000 million mu, plus Liaodong, Annan, etc., if the measurement is clear, the population that can be resettled is at least [-] million!

This population accounts for one-eighth or one-seventh of Daming. If implemented, it will have an immeasurable impact on Daming!

Those people who fear, hesitate, and wait and see are likely to be brought up to stand on the side of the court against those gentry.

In any case, the advantage of the "land" reform has gradually come to the court's side, and the longer the time, the greater the advantage.

Among them, Zhu Xu also saw the special agricultural planning of Suzhou, Yangzhou, and Hangzhou. Although it was only a few tens, it also revealed the determination of the cabinet and the future policy direction.

Holding a charcoal pen, Zhu Xu revised, added, and made up for some problems in Sun Chuanting's words.

Next, it's business.

For business, Sun Chuanting's plan is a bit "skinny", saying it is a "development outline", but more about a structure, laws and regulations, and reiterating support for Shenlong Mansion, encouraging business, developing maritime trade, etc. .

In this situation, Zhu Xu can understand that one is a realistic requirement, and the other is that Sun Chuanting and others may not understand how to develop this business.

Zhu Xu picked up the charcoal pen and wrote four large characters on a new page: "Price Law", and then gave some explanations for these four words. Even some of the foreword does not match the afterword.

There are four big characters that are ready to come out hidden in it: market economy.

After writing these, Zhu Xu glanced again, smiled with satisfaction, and said, "It depends on your comprehension ability."

Then, he lowered his head and continued to look at it.

After reading this, it was early in the morning the next day. Zhu Xu didn't realize it. He read and wrote, and read and wrote. More than one page.

Seeing that the sky was bright, Liu Shimin who was not far away looked at Zhu Xu worriedly, and lowered his head, not daring to disturb her.

Li Deyong came in quietly from the outside, and said in a low voice: "Eunuch Liu, does the emperor usually stay up late like this?"

Li Deyong was transferred back from Nanzhili. He used to be the eunuch in charge of Bumbutai, so he didn't know much about the palace.

Liu Shimin looked inside again, and said in a low voice: "There are still many things in the cabinet, I have to go there. I have asked the imperial dining room to make egg custard, and when the emperor raises his head, I will send it in when I have time."

Li Deyong responded, "Yes."

Liu Shimin glanced at Zhu Xu again, and quietly left Qianqing Palace.

Li Deyong took Liu Shimin's place and stood outside the gate of Dongnuange with his hands down.

Not long after, an inner eunuch hurried over and said in a low voice: "Eunuch Li, the one sent by the Generalissimo's Mansion is the speech of Deputy Marshal Qin."

Li Deyong took it, waved his hands silently, waited for a while, then walked in quietly, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the draft of Vice Marshal Qin's speech."

Without raising his head, Zhu Xu said, "Well, put it down."

Li Deyong put it down, and exited without making a sound.

Chapter 1471

Zhu Xu didn't read Qin Liangyu's report, but still stared at Sun Chuanting's speech.

One of Sun Chuanting's catalogs after commerce is industry. Compared with the previous agriculture and commerce, industry is simpler. He only lists a few frameworks and claims to vigorously promote it, but there is no more policy support and strategic planning.

Sun Chuanting listed three priorities, one was iron smelting, one was handicrafts, and the other was machinery.

All three are very general without elaborating more.

For example, iron smelting includes iron smelting, mining and a series of technologies involved.

Handicrafts are light industries, mainly textiles, including silk, textiles, utensils and so on.

Mechanisms are more complex, contain more, and are varied. The big clock in the parliament hall is one of the representatives.

Zhu Xu watched, picked up a pen, and carried out shattering renovations on this "industrial plan".

Iron smelting will be the pillar of the development of the future industrial society, and this pillar will last for hundreds of years. Who can take the lead in this industry will basically determine the degree of development of the country and its status in the world.

Iron smelting involves too much, and it is still in its infancy, including all the technologies, tools, equipment, etc. required for mining and steelmaking, which are extremely immature.
