Ming dynasty grand dude

Especially when Xiong Lieshan was silent, the aura of gold and iron horse immediately permeated.

"Seeing that General Xiong wears this suit, this old man wants to wear one..."

Chang Ning Bo looked at the clothes and said with a wry smile: "It's just that the old man also knows that wearing them is definitely not as powerful as General Xiong."

It was Uncle Chang Ning who told the truth, all of them were rich relatives of the capital.

One and two are old, and they usually hang around the brothel or eat, drink and have fun.

It's so delicate and weak, it's no wonder that it looks good in such a chilling military uniform.

It can only be that the clothes look nondescript, like a monkey wearing a crown.

Chapter 349 The first graduate received the imperial sword, and the veteran Yue Zhai wanted to resign

When Emperor Hongzhi watched Xiong Lieshan come out in this military uniform in the imperial study, he made a decision without saying a word.

That's it!And it is required that a set must be customized for him!

Emperor Hongzhi naturally had to have a set, and even his set must be different from other people's!

But now is not the time to talk about these things, Mr. Zhang took out a strip box.

Handed it over to Xiao Jing to open it, the first box contained a precious sword crafted with precision craftsmanship.

Xiao Jing was taken aback for a moment, but still presented the saber to Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the knife, also in a daze.

However, the scabbard was extremely ornately decorated, inlaid with gold and mixed with silver, wrapped in a green sharkskin scabbard.

It is also inlaid with a circle of red coral, turquoise, and even a few gemstones.

The scabbard to the handle of the whole knife, and even the knife grid are all delicately wrapped with bullfight patterns, which looks extraordinarily luxurious.

The blade is not particularly long, it seems to refer to Xiuchun Dao.

It's just more suitable for chopping in battle formations. It seems that this knife is not just gorgeous.

"Ka Ka Ka... 啷~!"

Emperor Hongzhi drew out the saber, and couldn't help but stare, "This saber... isn't just a thousand refinements?!"

"Your Majesty's eyes are like a torch, this sword was made by the casting department's hydraulic hammer five thousand times!"

Grandpa Zhang solemnly bowed to Emperor Hongzhi and said, "Your Majesty, please read the inscription on the sword!"

Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback when he heard these words. What he noticed more was the blade and blade.

Hearing Mr. Zhang's words, he looked at the blade at the grid.

But there is nothing but the words "No. 14 Excellent Tianzi No. [-] of the Royal Military Academy of the Ming Dynasty in the [-]th year of Hongzhi" on it.

And below it is a line of small words bestowed by the emperor, the soul of the emperor!

"The one who can match this knife is the one who won the first prize in the final score of the Emperor's Academy."

Grandpa Zhang retreated two steps towards Emperor Hongzhi, bowed and said, "Starting from Your Majesty, this should be the law of the empire!"

"With this knife, only the first place in the examination of the Imperial Affairs Academy's students will be awarded!"

"And this time the military uniform must be awarded by His Majesty himself, and no one else will interfere!"

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned when he heard Yu Chihu's words, and then he often let out a sigh of relief.

Put the knife back into the long box and walk down the jade steps, and personally helped Mr. Zhang up.

From the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, how could he fail to see that Young Master Zhang is trying to win the army for him and for the royal family!

These graduated martial arts candidates became martial arts scholars. Under the name of disciples of the emperor, they only need to work for the empire, so how could the royal family treat them badly? !

With these warriors coming out of the Imperial Military Academy in a steady stream, they gradually replaced the old guards.

After they have replaced all the troops of the entire empire, how can the imperial army be as good as their fingers? !

This will completely lay the foundation of the royal family, as long as the subsequent descendants of the royal family are not too stupid to maintain the prestige of the army.

Then the royal family's control over the entire empire will definitely not be reduced by half.

Emperor Hongzhi was agitated for a while, then calmed down.

Seemingly thinking of something, he left the Imperial Study Room with his hands behind his back and walked straight to the door.

"Crazy Tiger, just walk with me!"

Although Zhang Xiaogong was a little puzzled, he obediently followed Emperor Hongzhi and walked out slowly.

Chen Tong had already led the guards to open the way ahead, and they knew very well where Emperor Hongzhi usually went to relax after leaving the imperial study.

In fact, Emperor Hongzhi didn't go shopping much in this palace. If he was really bored, the only place he would go was a small garden outside the imperial study.

"Stupid Tiger, Lord Yue Zhai has submitted his letter of resignation to me."

In fact, Emperor Hongzhi didn't really have much thought to appreciate these exotic flowers and plants, he just stared at them in a daze.

Hearing this, Young Master Zhang couldn't help but smile, what a cunning old fellow!

He probably saw that Emperor Hongzhi was about to start reforming many of the shortcomings of the empire, and reform meant raising the butcher's knife.

The Hongzhi Emperor's sword, which is not sensible, has to be cut off.

The casting of those giant cannons made Emperor Hongzhi's confidence suddenly a little bit more, the most important thing is the secret report that Wang Zhi brought back from Nine Sides...

Looking at the news in the secret newspaper, Emperor Hongzhi was so angry that he didn't eat all day. It was Empress Dowager Zhou who heard about it and Empress Zhang came to persuade him.

Emperor Hongzhi reluctantly ate a little, but still couldn't swallow the breath.

One pile after another in the secret report almost sent a chill down Emperor Hongzhi's spine.

The Nine Sides have not been breached for so many years. This is simply the collective manifestation of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty for 50 years!

The bowl-mouthed guns reported as damaged and disappeared are actually completely different from the bowl-mouthed guns that really disappeared!

Wang Zhi ran all over the Nine Sides with his people, and after careful inspection, it turned out that at least [-]% of the bowl and mouth guns had disappeared!

Where did you go? !have no idea.When did you lose it? !Still don't know.

How can this not make Emperor Hongzhi angry? !

The situation of empty pay is even more serious, and there have been at least nearly a hundred incidents of forcing soldiers to rebel against the guards.

Almost all the guards in the entire Nine Sides were involved, but it might not be possible for these generals to compete with the Tatars.

But when it comes to suppressing the soldiers of the guards, that's called a special practice, and it's a very special practice.

They even suppressed it so much that even Guochao didn't realize that there had been so many outbreaks on Nine Sides, the rebellion of the guards.

It's not that no censors have discovered this problem, but no one dares to delve into it and investigate it.

The generals and schools of these nine borders have already forged together because of this interest.

One prospers and one loses, and anyone who thinks of breaking this chain of interests will pay a heavy price.

Is it light...it is "forced against the Nine Sides", it is difficult for you to find out if you are charged with this crime.

If you don't know the person or Guochao really wants to investigate, then throw out a few people to carry the blame.

Everyone will take care of his family for him, but if he wants to kill him, it is his own problem and he will do his best to take things down.

If the imperial envoy is not willing to give up, Maitreya demon, Bailian demon, bandit and bandit...etc will appear to rob and kill the imperial envoy.

When the time comes to die in Jiubian, it really has nothing to do with them.

Those civil servants who passed by the Nine Sides were not ignorant of this matter but knew that no one dared to interfere.

There are too many involved, and too many people have been provoked.

I'm in a hurry, these killers may not dare to kill you all over the house!

And they themselves are going out to create a board, looking for an opportunity to return to Daming with Yin Nong's household registration documents...

"Shameless! National beetles! They are all traitors!!"

Even if Emperor Hongzhi mentions this matter now, he is still gasping for air and is about to explode!

3 Chapter Fifty

"Your Majesty, it's useless to be angry..."

Grandpa Zhang cupped his hands and bowed with a wry smile, "Now that the Tatar Dayan Khan is newly mourned, they have to fight for another period of time for the Khan's position, and they will be safe for now."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded and let out a deep breath.

It was precisely because Dayan Khan was beheaded by the tiger-headed old state that Emperor Hongzhi was relieved.

In addition to the problems of those generals and academies on Nine Sides, there is also the problem of the local gentry and wealthy families.

Why were Wang Yue and the others impeached? !Why was the tiger-headed old Duke also impeached for his actions of farming in Nine Sides? !

In the final analysis, it was they who greatly affected the interests of the local gentry and wealthy families.

The most important thing is that they have affected this group of people, dumping supplies outside the pass to make money!

How much does an iron pot sell in the pass? !

Shen Ershan's "Miscellaneous Notes of Wanshu" contains "ten big iron pots, complete stoves, and seven cents and five cents of silver." Ten pots are only seven cents and five cents of silver!

But this iron pot is more than this price when it reaches the outside of the customs. Even the iron pot sold to the fire sieve during the Yingzong period cost two pieces of silk!

Tumubao and Yingzong were captured together, and later promoted to the cabinet Huagaidian University scholar Li Wenda wrote "Gu Rang Miscellaneous Records" to record this passage.

That was the case when Yang Sijing, the Marquis of Xingji in the seventh year of Jingtai, was the first to see the fire as an envoy.

"This iron pot was produced in Guangdong, and it traveled more than [-] miles to the capital. One pot sold two pieces of silk, and the envoys went to buy it, and they stopped fighting with one piece of paper to make a quarrel..."

"Whoever sells pot does not sell it behind closed doors, how does the emperor know?!"

Taking "Wanli Accounting Records" as a calculation, the price of each piece of silk is between 7 and 8 renminbi.

This is a very high price, even if they sell it at the price of two pieces of silk for an iron pot, the price can soar to about one tael of silver.

The profit has been doubled by twenty times. This is still a big iron pot, but the cost of a small iron pot is naturally lower!

And how could they only sell one or two?The price must be higher.

Ma's beard is swollen, so to speak, with a profit of 100, it dares to trample on all human laws!

With a profit of 300, it dares to commit any crime, even at the risk of hanging its head!

This profit is already more than 300, and this is just dumping things outside the customs.

Materials from outside the pass come in and you can make money. There are seven or eight taels of horses, and twelve or three taels of good horses.

The fineness of wool is generally three to five taels, and the top ten or twenty taels can't beat it.

The Tatar fire sieve does not use silver, so it is often used for settlement.Among them, the front and back discounts are deducted, and you can earn a fortune.

In addition, there are salt, wine, cloth, swords and armor... etc., all of which are things that make a lot of money.

I'm afraid 800, or even 1000 will be there if the profits before and after are superimposed? !

You said that they have cut off their financial resources, can they not engage in the British Duke and Wang Yue? !

Naturally, it is impossible for the gentry and aristocrats to monopolize such benefits, the generals and schools on the Nine Sides, and those in the court who used to associate with them.

Up, down, left, and right are all sharers!

Why do the nine sides repeatedly break the mutual market?Why are the courtiers unwilling to trade with each other? !

Because it cut off everyone's money!

This kind of thinking is exactly the same as that of Ban Hai. How can they smuggle and make a lot of money? !

"Grand Sui'an is now on the Nine Sides, and he has received an opportunity from Mr. Wang's secretary. He must be able to secure it even if he can't resist it."

What Zhang Xiaogong actually thought was that Yang Yiqing was such a big name in history!

Known as "going out to be a good man, Wendewugong", such a person can't even deal with those generals in the Nine Sides.

But at least it should be possible to maintain the situation.
