Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Jing's eyes lit up.

My husband has given her a lot of face!

As a concubine, why does she have such a high status in her mother's family?

Isn’t it just that you are getting better and better by relying on your partner?

For them gentry, just take back some of the worthless things in the warehouse...

For my mother's family who are just rich people, this is a good thing!

For example, the Songjiang cloth that her husband asked her to take.

This stuff is cotton produced in the area around Songjiang.

300 years ago, after Huang Daopo improved the textile machine, new textile machines became popular around Songjiang Prefecture, making cotton cloth dense and fine.

Huang Daopo's improved personal cotton seed ginning machine, spinning machine, and loom were more than [-] years ahead of the world.

(Note: Huang Daopo's loom is the pinnacle of individually operated looms. The highest peak of Chinese textile looms is the Hualou loom operated by multiple people. It originated in the Han Dynasty, gradually reached its peak in the late Tang Dynasty, and reached its peak in the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty Water Power Hualou The loom has as many as 1800 components!)

After 300 years of development, Songjiang cloth is a very common thing in the Jiangnan area.

When those scholars came to see their husband, they just used it to show their face and make the gift boxes bigger.

However, Songjiang Prefecture is more than 2000 miles away from here!

Even though Songjiang cotton has been sold all over the world for hundreds of years, it is rare in these small market towns in the mainland.

You can't buy it unless you make a special trip to the big market towns along the river.

There is nothing for sale in the surrounding small market towns!

As for the Peng family, there were members of the Peng family who wanted to benefit and had never entered official circles, so they bought them as gifts.

Peng Ershu got help and succeeded immediately. How could other scholars not want to do the same...

……

In the era of small farmers, when men farmed and women weaved, the circulation of non-necessities and irreplaceable products was very low.

Every household weaves and makes clothes by themselves. Even though Songjiang cloth has been sold all over the world, it has not been able to break into the lives of ordinary people.

The Industrial Revolution in the West was initiated because of the Wool Movement. A large number of people who lost their land poured into cities and towns and became industrialized workers, exploited people... and consumers!

The industrial movement that originated 100 years later around 1750 did not begin to develop rapidly until around 1840 due to a lack of consumers.

And with the low cost, it launched a violent storm that swept everything in the old world...

……

"Okay, I'll thank you on behalf of my nephews!"

Jing covered her mouth and smiled, took Peng Ershu's hand and rubbed it in front of Erlian Mountain.

……

In the dark hall behind the living room, there were some strange sounds.

……

Zhu Yujian often breathed a sigh of relief.

He settled down in a small village on the hillside on the west bank of the Paizi River.

According to the locals, this place is called Yangang. The village in front with a large courtyard with green tile roofs is Pengjia Town, now called Pengqiao Town.

Strangely enough, the hills in Dengxi were ups and downs, but after reaching the hills in Yangang, they suddenly stopped.

To the east of this place is an endless plain, extending all the way to the outside of Nanyang City. It only has some ups and downs near Wollongong.

This plain spans a full two hundred miles!

After Wollongong, there is an endless plain with almost no undulations, extending all the way to Fangcheng.

……

The old farmer who was grazing cattle next to Zhu Yujian had a wet look on his face. He pointed at the rows of villages under the hillside. Light suddenly flashed in his cloudy eyes.

With every breath, a voice with a phlegm sound sounded:

"There is a high official there!"

Zhu Yujian knocked on his head:

"What official?

Why can't I remember it? "

Standing behind him were Qian Yang and Wei Qiang, Zhang Rushi and Zhang Shixi, who were currently investigating the Tian Mu Division, turned around and thought for a moment...

I thought about it for a while, until the old farmer drove his calves to a different field to graze, but he still didn't think about it.

The two of them took out a book, flipped through it carefully, and then smiled:

"My lord, it is Peng Ershu who was a Jinshi four years ago and served as the magistrate of Yangqu County."

……

"By the way, he just hung up and left without completing the normal resignation procedures."

……

"whispering sound!"

Zhu Yujian was stunned.

How can a small county magistrate, who only served one term or absconded directly, claim to be a high official?

This guy is suspicious!

The group continued to inquire...

Peng Ershu's actions were clearly displayed before everyone's eyes.

……

One after another, the daring actions of the small magistrates are clearly presented before their eyes.

Zhu Yujian was immediately furious and couldn't help but cursed:

"How dare that thief take advantage of you in such a clever way!"

This idiot has only been admitted to the imperial examination for four years and has only been an official for three years.

So much of the surrounding land was taken away by him?

Not to mention Jingjia's own village, he had robbed as much as [-]% of the land in the surrounding villages!

There are more than [-] acres of farmland occupied and hidden by him?

Zhu Yujian was furious!

Although Zhu Yujian was a little angry-the emperor used him as a shield.

However, over the past few days, I have seen the gentry taking advantage of each other and occupying as much as seven percent of the surrounding fields. The people have no food and clothing, and many families have died of starvation...

Zhu Yujian, who was upright at heart, suddenly became angry!

He understood the emperor's painstaking efforts.

...Although using oneself to block the gun - it is a bit unethical...

The dog emperor even cheats grandpa!

Uh... the grandpa of the clan who is more than ten clans away, that is also a grandpa!

This grandson doesn’t deserve to be a son of a human being, he’s trying to trick his own family...

However, I am a member of the sin sect, and a descendant of a distant vassal who has been in the same lineage as the emperor since the founding of the country, and he is able to rise to the high position of the sect...

The emperor gave him such a high status, wasn't it just to let him work!

Zhu Yujian knows this truth very well no matter how much benefit you get, how much work you do.

Not to mention, he still loves this country deeply...

"How many more people do we have?"

Zhu Yujian asked with a frown.

“My lord, there are only about fifty people left.

Yesterday, the prince came here from Zhulinqiao market town overnight..."

Zhang Rushi was holding back a smile in his heart.

The king of Tang couldn't stand the entanglement of the gentry and ran away overnight, which made him laugh miserably.

My stomach hurts just thinking about it!

Forcibly suppressing his smile, Zhang Rushi continued:

“This area is all hilly and adjacent to the two provinces, so the government has always been weak.

There were many families colluding with the gentry and bandits, and the situation was too complicated, so the sergeants were a little slow in checking.

The Bamboo Forest Bridge was more than forty miles away from here, so it was a bit troublesome for the soldiers to check all the way there. "

Zhang Shixi carefully calculated the previous inspection speed and then said:

"It should take another ten days and a half to reach this area!"

There are only about fifty people around?

Zhu Yujian felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Along with the setting sun, the continuous appearance of the mountains in the northwest was clearly presented in front of us. Judging from the distance, it was only about ten miles away.

That's where the Great Wall of the Song Dynasty was built by Wang Jian to resist the Mongols.

As the vassal king of the Tang Dynasty in Nanyang, Zhu Yujian knew that the mountains were connected with the Qinling Mountains. Across the Han River waterway, there were the Qinling Mountains!

This place has always been plagued by banditry...
