Three days later, at the Dachao meeting, Zhu Yuanzhang directly announced that he would move the capital to Dadu, and name Dadu the North Jing, Yingtian the South Jing, and Fengyang the Central Capital, the mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and brothers.

The move of the capital obviously caught many people by surprise. Before that, Zhu Yuanzhang had revealed that he was preparing for the capital to meet the sky. Therefore, many people had already made up their minds and took advantage of this opportunity to make money. last sum.

You know, when Xu Da captured Dadu, the people under his hands made a lot of money, but other people didn't encounter such good things. The warlords in the north have been fighting for years, and many Mongolian nobles have already sneaked away. Not to mention how many times wealth has been left behind, it would be nice not to get chicken feathers all over the floor!

The reason why everyone did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would move the capital to Dadu is also because of successive years of wars. The population in the north has dropped by an unknown amount compared to the south. After the world is peaceful, they will directly force immigration!

Although some people in the court raised objections, but Yingtian has been the capital for less than a year, and it would be a lie to say that everyone has any great feelings for this place, so even if you want to object, you can There is no reason.What's more, Zhu Yuanzhang also regarded Yingtian's side as the southern capital!This is actually a common practice. In the Han and Tang Dynasties, Chang'an and Luoyang were the capitals of the East and the West. In the Song Dynasty, Kaifeng was the Eastern Capital, and Luoyang was the Western Capital. As for the Liao Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, and later Da In Yuan Dynasty, there are several capital cities. Everyone is used to everything from Shangdu to Zhongdu.

Therefore, in the end, everyone can only admit it. Based on Zhu Yuanzhang's instigation, it is estimated that after arriving in Dadu, although the imperial palace may be rebuilt, it is not known when it happened. I want to get some benefits from it. , it is not easy!

Naturally, moving the capital cannot be resolved in a day or two. Apart from anything else, Bei Yuan is still eyeing it. It is said that the Zhizheng Emperor has started to cheer up again, and he is still thinking about taking back the capital. Let's move over with the officials and face Beiyuan's soldiers directly. Therefore, we have to wait until the war over there has a result, at least let Beiyuan die to enter the pass.

In many cases, administrative coercive orders are nothing compared to the temptation of interests. Now if people are forced to move to the north, then naturally there is nothing to say. They will only resist endlessly. I don’t know what is going to happen in the middle. It has been clearly stated that the capital will be moved to Dadu, then the situation will be different.

No matter where the capital is, it is a matter of course that the nearby places are heavily developed. For many people, it is full of benefits.

Under such circumstances, the civil and military officials in the court first acted first. With Zhu Yuanzhang's stinginess, although Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely grant a mansion according to his title, there is no guarantee for such a large area. Especially now that the blueprint for building the capital in Dadu has not yet come down, so there is no guarantee of where the mansion will be given. Maybe it will have to be expanded and rebuilt by itself, so it is definitely not a loss to hoard a batch of bricks, wood and stones in advance. In addition, real estate such as land.The land is left in the south, although many servants can be left to guard the south, and the rent can be directly converted into money and sent over, but the food, vegetables, fruits and meat for the family can't be bought entirely. There are so many people in a big family , the cost will be high, so it is necessary to re-purchase properties near the capital.

Therefore, all civil and military officials who are sure that they will move there will immediately send people with money one by one, either hurry up, or take a boat through the canal or go north along the coast. , Turn around and wait for the reaction over there, but there will be no such good thing!

The second person who reacted was those businessmen. In fact, compared with officials, businessmen have a sharper sense of smell, but compared with these officials, they often need to wait and see the direction of the wind to avoid being caught.After the news was confirmed, many merchants directly organized caravans to go north.

On Zhu Yuanzhang's side, he is happy to see the success. He has already been to Dadu. Back then, all the property of the Mongols was confiscated. Naturally, it included a large amount of real estate and land. Zhu Yuanzhang would not keep these in his own hands. Here, some of these were originally intended to be rewarded, and some were sold.

At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Liu Ji directly, and brought a group of people to survey the terrain, prepare to draw blueprints, and rebuild the palace.The imperial palace of the Yuan court does not conform to the aesthetics of the Central Plains at all, so reconstruction is inevitable. As for the imperial palace of the Yuan court, it can only be lived temporarily, and then it will be used as another palace.

As for the construction of the imperial palace, Shu Yun said that it is better to call for bids.

Sometimes, persuading Zhu Yuanzhang is actually a relatively easy task. Shu Yun directly stated that the world has been in chaos for many years, and the people need to cultivate their lives and rest. Specially recruiting corvees will inevitably cause a burden to the people, so they directly invite external bids to find those businessmen It's much simpler.It is not counted as corvee, but as wages. When bidding, you must clearly state the basic treatment for those craftsmen. If there are casualties, you must pay compensation. If the casualties exceed a certain limit, you must be held accountable. From a hired party to a referee.Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with the court.

As for the question of whether those businessmen agree, let alone, on the one hand, this matter cannot be lost, and it is actually cheaper to entrust it to these businessmen than to do it by the court itself. There is room for those officials to play tricks, and for these businessmen, being able to undertake the task of building the palace and providing materials for the palace is a living sign, and they have to continue to do it even if they lose money!

As for the shortage of craftsmen, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally wanted to set up specialized craftsmen. However, this kind of thing seems to be no problem. It seems that generations have iron rice bowls, but it prevents the possibility of class circulation. They are craftsmen all their lives, and the descendants of soldiers have to be soldiers all their lives. This is actually very deceitful. The corruption in the middle and late Ming Dynasty has a lot to do with these rules. Don’t escape too many households, and some people take advantage of the loopholes here , Exploiting craftsmen, embezzling military settlements, eating empty wages and so on.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the lawless officials could be killed one by one, so he formulated a law that made people dare not be officials. The question is how many emperors can be as tough as him and can insist on implementing such laws?This is not a joke!Zhu Yuanzhang said that the common people can send officials to Beijing to sue for impeachment. In fact, it has long been an unspoken rule that the people do not fight against the officials. The cost is too high. Which common people can afford such a price!

Therefore, in a sense, Zhu Yuanzhang is an idealist, but he is still an emperor, a very powerful emperor, which is a bit bad.

However, as for Shu Yun, under normal circumstances, he would not think about other things, he would only settle economic accounts with Zhu Yuanzhang, such as the issue of military households. The Nine Sides will increase the number of males. The question is, does the imperial court have so much military land for them to cultivate?Without so much land, how can we support so many soldiers?

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned by the snowballing figure. Of course he didn't think much about the war damage, but in his opinion, no matter how much war damage there was, it wouldn't be worth much. We must leave unsolvable problems for future generations.Among other things, the Xiangjun Imperial Army in the Song Dynasty was a lesson learned from the past!The Forbidden Army alone claims to be 80 casually, dragging down the court's finances every year.

After some weighing, Zhu Yuanzhang regretfully gave up on this idea. Trees are moved to death, people are moved to live, and it is obviously unreliable to trap generations in one profession.However, as an emperor who fought through wars, military power is still very important. In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, an emperor can have everything, but he cannot have military power.

But in Shu Yun's eyes, no matter which line of work he does, he can have nothing but money.There is a saying in later generations called how to relieve worries, only to get rich!It’s the same in this era. If the emperor has no money, he has to be like Chongzhen. He has to cry poorly with the ministers for a little thing, and then one can cry better than the other. In the end, the emperor is the poorest, and he can only go to Meishan in the end. Find a crooked neck tree to chat with!

Therefore, Shu Yun is not very optimistic about Zhu Yuanzhang's ambitious system that wants to establish the foundation of the Ming Dynasty forever. There is nothing that is immutable. If nothing else, after so many years, the words of Confucius are not known. How many times it has been annotated, and the Confucian classics and interpretations have been changed for an unknown number of times, that is, they themselves claim to be orthodox.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang was somewhat discouraged by Shu Yun, he was not discouraged by it. He made a blank booklet and wrote and drew on it every day, wondering what he was thinking about.

By this time, Zhu Yuanzhang would no longer be on the front line in person, so he has a little leisure now, and he can finally have time to teach his son.

Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, and Zhu Biao is the crown prince for granted. His brothers, at this age, don't even have titles. They are called Second Highness, Third Highness, etc. according to their ranking in the palace. The identity is distinguished from other sons, the role of the crown prince is only under the emperor and empress, and the treatment of the prince, including the treatment of the other princes who are born directly, is equivalent to that of the prince.And with Zhu Yuanzhang's stinginess, hehe, the salaries of civil and military officials in the court are really hard to describe. On the contrary, the annual land tax rebate seems to have become a big one. Of course, this is also because of the sheep.When the invisible welfare becomes the obvious, then even if the officials below want to cry poor, they have nothing to say.

To be honest, if Shu Yun hadn't formulated the monthly treatment for concubines and palace servants before, with Zhu Yuanzhang's stinginess, it is estimated that these concubines would have to rely on money from their natal families to maintain a certain dignity!But thinking about history, Empress Ma was originally a very simple character. After becoming an empress, she took the concubines to spin and weave cloth, and wore silk woven by herself. Who would dare to dress more luxuriously than the empress? I guess There is nowhere to spend the money.

Shu Yun didn't want to wrong the people in the palace over such things. When the material conditions are insufficient, simplicity is the right thing to do, but now, when domestic demand is being stimulated, the royal family is not willing to spend, even if they want to spend , and dare not let go.

Shu Yun is not like the Empress Ma in the history books. She has become a model by herself and taught her son to be a saint. This kind of life is too tiring and unreliable. Therefore, the current Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu They are still relatively down-to-earth. After knowing that the two had stumbled on the farm before, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately had a new idea.
