[Comprehensive] Be with Ancient Celebrities

Ayu wants the emperor to spend money?Do you want to improve the welfare of craftsmen?These two things can actually be combined, especially when Ayu has a convenient location, it is very convenient.Yes, many people may have already thought of it, it is the Shenji Camp.

Everyone says that the Chinese invented guns, but the foreign guns and cannons have become a sharp weapon for foreigners to open the door to China. It is foreigners who have brought the era of cold weapons into the era of hot weapons.This statement is actually not correct.To tell the truth, the world's first tube made of bamboo was actually invented by the Chinese, and it was quite early. Chen Gui, an anti-gold general in the Northern Song Dynasty, had already made it in 1126, although it was only a tube made of rough moso bamboo at that time. Body, the power is really not very good, but it is only used as a fire-breathing tool, but this is indeed a big improvement.Later, Zhentianlei or something, the predecessor of the grenade, was also a good weapon in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Even the Kingdom of Jin, which stole technology from the Song people, became the world's first hot weapon empire, and used improved things to greatly resist the invasion of Mongolia. It is true that how the West uses hot weapons is the Kingdom of Jin After the demise, the Mongols took it over in the westward expedition. In this calculation, there is a difference of nearly a hundred years.Oh, maybe it can also be said that the Chinese were the first to knock on the door of the West with firearms, haha, is it not so aggrieved to think so?Well, self-soothing feels good.

In the Ming Dynasty, many people may not know that at the beginning, the Yuan Dynasty, Chen Youliang, and Zhang Shicheng were all stronger than Zhu Yuanzhang. Why did they win in the end?This is not only because of the strategy of "building high walls, accumulating food widely, and becoming king slowly", but the convenience of weapons is also a major reason.At that time, under Zhu Yuanzhang's account, it was said that there was a man named Jiao Yu who had the ancestral craft of making guns. Relying on this weapon advantage, it was possible to win more with less, and persisted until the end. This was also the predecessor of Shenjiying.Similarly, this army was established nearly a hundred years earlier than the West.

History is so speechless. Little people have obviously changed history and surpassed history, but because they are little people, the light is covered by the so-called historical tide, the halo of emperors, and even civilization is also buried. In the end, it ended like this , Who do you blame?

Well, let’s not talk about such emotions for the time being, let’s talk about the current Shenji Camp first. The so-called personal guards of the capital are still focused on technology and supplemented by physical strength. Xun's son and nephew have mixed background, mixed qualifications, and mixed official positions. In this way, it is really conceivable how effective they are in combat.However, if the combat effectiveness is not good, it does not mean that the things inside are not good. There may be many flaws and troubles in batches, but at least the craftsmen are always the top batch in the country, so there are still high-quality goods, and there are also many inventions and creations.

For example, the Shenhuo Flying Crow is very interesting. It looks like a large monkey, which is no different from fireworks, but in the eyes of Ayu, who has a historical vision, this thing is definitely a small one. Ah!Do you think this thing is worth the effort?

Ayu needs to spend a lot of effort, the thick thighs that can be relied on are naturally our Emperor Wanli, just a few times in a row, as soon as he says something here, there will be corresponding policies on the other side. I didn't guess who you look like, whoops, that's really fake.So he was very clever. When he met Emperor Wanli again, while still leading him towards his house, he kept scanning carefully with his eyes. Zhang Cheng, who noticed this scene, covered his mouth, snickered for a while, and even took advantage of Ayu's turning around to whisper in Emperor Wanli's ear.

In such a small place as the main room of Ayu's house, you mutter, haha, why can't Ayu's ears hear clearly?Doesn't it mean that you may have already seen it, you don't need to smile like this behind your back, Ayu will lift the cover after a while by himself.

"You said your...my eyes..."

Ayu sat at the bottom, looking like he didn't know what to say, that's right, if you treat the emperor as someone else for so long, you will feel uneasy. It is small to ridicule, and this blasphemy is big, so it is common sense not to dare to say it.

Fortunately, Emperor Wanli was quite satisfied with Ayu, the little Jinyiwei, in such a period of one or two years, so he didn't mean to embarrass him. He followed his words and nodded slightly.Whoops, this is an admission, so what else can I say?Ayu immediately knelt down and kowtowed a few times cleverly, and called out to His Majesty in a low voice.

What?Can't kneel down?Dear, this is Ayu, not the first time a rookie in ancient times, besides, this kneeling or something, if it is kneeling and sitting in the Tang Dynasty, the immediate reaction will not be much.It was fine to kowtow to the ancestors at that time, anyway, it was hundreds of years later, so there was no embarrassment.

He kowtowed here, and officially revealed the identity of Emperor Wanli. There are advantages and disadvantages to this matter. No, because the emperor doesn't like it.Seeing how agile he was listening to himself in the past, he knew that when he met and talked with himself, he regarded it as a source of listening to the truth, so he still had to express his position when it was time to express his position.Well, of course concern has to keep up.

"Your Majesty, you are dressed in a white dragon fish suit... why is it Uncle Zhang, ah, Eunuch Zhang is not following alone, this is not very safe."

"This is the place where Jinyiwei has been stretching for generations, surrounded by my personal guards, what's unsafe, that's all, let's not talk about this, I came out today to ask, do you know Xu Zhenming?"

"Xu Zhenmin? This person... the lower officials really know, is it the one who wrote "Lushui Guest Talk" and discussed the benefits of the great water conservancy in the north? This person Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War, is very fancy. It is said that Shuntian Governor Zhang Guoyan and others People conducted experiments in Jizhou, Yongping, Fengrun, and Yutian, and the results were very good. Long live, didn’t you super-elect him as the Shaoqing of Shangbaosi in March this year, and plan the boiling water of Jingdong’s paddy fields. Why... he is What's wrong?"

"According to what he said, according to the current plan, if nothing goes wrong, there will still be [-] mu of reclaimed land by next year. It can't be said that there is anything wrong with it, but... the reclaimed land is good, but after the reclamation The water conservancy everywhere is costing manpower, too much labor, and it seems to be exhausting the people, alas, I am also a little embarrassed, I just want to hear what the people outside have to say."

Huh, what about this?Ah Yu knows about this matter. Historically, this matter will indeed end next year. According to many historical books, it was because the eunuchs prevented it, for fear of hindering their interests.But according to Ayu's own observation, the fart hinders the eunuch's interests, and the eunuchs have no boundaries in this paddy field, okay? What's the big deal with them?The so-called benefits, I am afraid that those landlords in the south are more concerned. The paddy fields in the north, or the total number of acres, will drop, the price of grain will come down, and the grain that needs to be transported from abroad will also decrease. What about the grain business of the people in the Imperial Granary in the south?That's the real stake.

Facing Emperor Wanli, what did Ayu say in one item? This is the personality he set for himself, and it will never be shaken easily. Sell ​​them clean.Not only did he sell it clean, but he also explained the price difference of the food along the way, the benefits of various passes on the canal, the entrainment of various places, etc., and Zhang Cheng was almost sweating after hearing it.Yaya, brat, this is the emperor who just found out that he has been in direct contact with the emperor. I'm a little too excited, why are you venting everything.How many good things have been ruined by this slip?If people find out, this kid might be in trouble.

Didn't Ayu know the result?How can it be.But can he not say it?No, who asked him to do Jin Yiwei?Born to be a spy?Even if he kept it a secret for them, no one would appreciate it. In this case, why didn't he help himself.Besides, what Ayu said is so true, I have already thought of a reason for myself.When Emperor Wanli laughed intentionally or unintentionally and said that he was a fool who dared to say anything, he was full of tears and said excitedly:

"Your Majesty, what your majesty said may be a bit exaggerated, maybe these people may not all think so, or maybe... this minister did something stupid to offend others, but this minister is His Majesty's minister, who has been guarding him for generations. Your Majesty, it is the duty of our Jinyiwei family to monitor the world for His Majesty. I cannot lose the face of our ancestors and our vocation of Jinyiwei. Besides, it is His Majesty who gave the official such an honorable status, so that the minister... the old Qin family How many generations have I never been so successful, without His Majesty, how can I have a good life today, naturally I should think of everything for Your Majesty, even if I can't be a minister or important minister, as a Jin Yiwei, to truthfully tell His Majesty everything is the duty of an official, and it is also the duty of my Majesty. The loyalty an official should have."

Look at how well this is said. Even if Wanli is taught to be an emperor, he is suspicious and overthinking. He is very pleased with this little Jinyiwei who has been in contact with the country for several years, has always been loyal to state affairs, has the world in mind, and is straightforward .I feel more and more in my heart that I am lucky to meet such a good minister.I can't help but think about it, maybe in the future history books, this scene today will be recorded as a good story or something...

Cough, cough, anyway, the emperor was very satisfied. By the way, he made a note for those who said that it was not appropriate to cultivate the land. He was going to check to see if these few had any connection with these grain merchants and canals. Really... Hey, maybe this little Jin Yiwei really made the decision, everyone is full of selfishness.

"I know your loyalty. The ministers... also think a little more. After all, governing a big country is like cooking a small fish, so it's best to be cautious."

Being an emperor is different, it's the same with Ayu, don't gossip about the ministers, it can be seen that there are definitely a lot of lawsuits in his stomach, and the nine bends and eighteen bends are not enough to describe the curvature of his intestines.

As Ayu who knows something about the emperor, he knows that no matter whether you are righteous or not, for the emperor, the less troublesome things, the better. When there is no solution, there are eight out of ten suggestions. You won't get any praise, but it's easy to get disgusted.Now that he has said bad things about those dissuading people, he is naturally on the side of Xu Zhenming. If he can't come up with a solution, maybe one day, when the timing is not right, what he said , On the contrary, it will become a knot in the emperor's heart, and he will be in constant trouble ever since.

Besides, didn't you still think about letting the emperor spend money, didn't you just think about how to circulate it, this is a sleepy pillow.So, he was very active, regained a bit of rambunctiousness, similar to the previous appearance, and said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, you are now...hehe, you have been earning a lot of money for several years in a row, and it's actually quite good to spread your wealth now... Oh, Eunuch Zhang, don't stare at me, listen to me. Look. Well, since the water conservancy is not suitable for labor, why don't we just hire people? Daming is rich all over the world, with a vast territory. Every year, there is no shortage of refugees for this disaster or that. There are more refugees near the capital. Let's hire these people People work, use work for relief, and directly use the original disaster relief money to repair water conservancy, wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone? Although I don’t know how to handle it better, the Ministry of Industry understands this person a lot. If they are allowed to do it..."

There is no need for a heavy hammer to beat the drum. Ayu will not regard himself as omnipotent, nor can he let the emperor treat himself as omnipotent. Give a plausible and feasible method, which is the bottom line. The emperor knows better than him how to do it. Look, this No, the emperor's brows frowned slightly, and then they parted, his eyes lit up a little, it could be seen that he had already parted out and knew what to do about this matter.That's it, Ayu thinks, with just one sentence, he has already gained immeasurable merits, and let others get the rest of the benefits.

As for whether this will form a practice, so that the court will pay more attention to disaster relief in the future, so that the refugees will be less likely to reduce the possibility of civil unrest, I don't know.It's man-made!Anyway, he is quite optimistic. Who made this Emperor Wanli a famous stingy emperor, the emperor who loves money, he should still care about saving money.

"You boy, you are really brave."

The emperor went out, and Zhang Cheng, who was following behind, left such a sentence before leaving, but he said it with a smile. What does this mean?It shows that Zhang Cheng is still optimistic about Ayu, but what about Ayu?Very cleverly, he cupped his hands at Zhang Cheng, and reached the most preliminary cooperation agreement with this great eunuch without comprehension.It's hard to say how long the two foxes who knew each other could work together in the future, but right now...it should be pretty good.
