Is it considered a buyer?

Wang Ju had n reasons to explain for himself, but he didn't. He just looked at Han Zhongyan and said lightly: "Judge Han, it's well said. Although 150,000 taels of gold is a considerable wealth, the country needs to reserve a large amount of gold and silver in the future. However, as a country, it seems that the ministers have done something wrong. When the ministers leave the palace, they will notify them not to donate the gold."

Han Zhongyan almost choked to death.

Lao Wang and Li Chengzhi looked at Han Zhongyan with dissatisfaction and thought to themselves, you, a child, don’t know how expensive it is if you don’t take charge of your family.

Zhao Xu was dissatisfied and said unhappily: "Han Qing, this is the righteous act of the maritime merchants, so don't cling to it."

If you have to make a wrong house, you can say anything good is wrong.

However, after Hu Zhao Xu's expectations, Wang Ju said again: "Your Majesty, but Judge Han is right, it can also be counted as buying people."

"Wang Qing..."

"Your Majesty, please listen to me."

"Last year, I received the news of the gold mine, and I immediately reported to Your Majesty. I also said that those were found by the maritime merchants and were on the other side. The court should not force it. However, our dynasty has always lacked gold and silver, and the principal of the banking department is gold and silver. Therefore, this gold is very important to our dynasty, but we have to use a good method, one is to persuade them to expand trade and exchange gold for it, and the other is to persuade them to donate."

"Why can I be sure to persuade them to donate? One is that they are not evil in their hearts. At least they have accumulated some wealth on the other side. I have some guidance in the middle. The other is what Judge Han said to buy people."

"Why donating every year, Your Majesty, it is not that simple to migrate the people. The more the population, the more tight the fields are. The easier it is for the main household to collect high rent from customers. This is the reason why the Kapok Branch moved the people to the south to plant kapok, and the powerful below opposed it. The poor people migrated together, and the tenants from the main household came to farm for them. In order to retain the tenants or craftsmen, they had to lower the rent or increase their salary."

"So they spread rumors, stirred up fire, and caused trouble. The scholars and officials often didn't know. As they agreed, Zhang Zihou had no choice but to find the minister. He was still in the military weapon supervision at that time, so it was inconvenient for him to come forward. However, he made a main point for Zhang Zihou, setting up a post office! Let the migrant people notify their relatives from their hometown to communicate with their relatives, and let them tell themselves what they got and what they lost when they went to the south."

This is a highlight of Xining's reform. It not only saved a lot of expenses from the imperial court, but also placed some soldiers who were discharged from the army due to injuries. At the same time, because each post office can make profits by remitting money and mailing, each post office can also gradually raise a group of donkeys and horses, which can increase the communication speed between some prefectures and counties that are not on the main roads and the capital.

And with overseas migration, the remittance profit also increased rapidly. It was this basis that the imperial court successfully launched the Feiqiansi in dozens of prosperous cities.

Although it is not as good as the wine, it can now increase the income of nearly two million yuan for the court a year and feed many people.

But there are still many people who don’t know that it was Wang Ju’s proposal, and they were very surprised after hearing this.

Wang Ju continued: "This suppressed some of the opposition. This was the first wave of large-scale migration of people by the imperial court. Then to the other side, at the beginning, Quanzhou migrated people in a square radius. At that time, the ministers served as the governor of Quanzhou and set up a wide range of relevant workshops to expand trade. They used this to tacitly establish an agreement with the major merchants and households of various states, and thus successfully migrated the first batch of people. With the arrival of the drought in Xining, no matter how many people migrated at that time, each household would not object."

"However, it's not possible to reach Jiaozhi, because the drought has passed. Someone impeached me to hurt the indigenous people and Jiaozhi people in the south, so I suggested that they be transported back to both sides of the Yangtze River. They can use them to exchange tacitly with the various heads and households, which will migrate a large number of people over."

"Your Majesty, it is really difficult to migrate the people. It is not the poor households themselves, but the main households. It is good, it reduces the rent of tenants and increases the salary of craftsmen in the city, which is more conducive to national stability. However, these main households only see their income, so how can they care about the stability and unstability of the country?"

In fact, the Song Dynasty was a little better, especially the Ming Dynasty.

There is a passage in the movie "The Great Ming Dynasty" where Li Zicheng's uprising army was all at the city. In order to prepare for military pay and food, Sun Chuanting had to beg for alms from the local tyrants. The tyrants were just for the tyrants. The tyrants were retired ministers of the Ming Dynasty, but these people just disagreed.

This passage is not fictional, and it does have an original allusion in history.

In fact, there is no need to beg for alms. Even though those years were caused by the small ice river, if the powerful men were less greedy and had less effort, donated a large sum of food and grass, and transferred to Shaanxi, if Li Zicheng wanted to rebel, would there be people following him?

Of course, the end result is that everyone will finish together.

So, the US imperialists did a better job, and even Wang Ju used it as a reference, which was to use donations, mortgages and taxes to induce wealthy people to do good deeds and accumulate virtues.

Wang Ju did not care about what everyone thought, and continued: "Once the seamen migrated the people on a large scale again, it would inevitably arouse greater opposition. When these voices reached the court, then when the literati and officials did not know the true or false, and the country did not manage the land, many literati and officials would inevitably agree. However, with these donations, many literati and officials who were loyal to the country would support them, at least they would hesitate. When the ministers went to the inn, they also said these truths. Some marquis thought that 150,000 taels of gold were donated too much, so I said something. When Cao used the negotiations with the Liao Kingdom to make 300,000 yuan, some people thought it was very heavy, but Zhenzong and Duke Kou Lai said that it was not enough to buy An. The same truth... Your Majesty was not ridiculed by the court, nor did you laugh at Your Majesty. Buying An was the An of the few ministers who bought it."

"From this perspective, it can be considered a buyer."

This is too heavy to say.

Even if many people are unhappy, they dare not reconcile.

For example, Han Zhongyan, does he dare to rebel?

"Why did Zhang Jiao be so harmful to Zhang Jiao? It was not only the dictatorship of foreign relatives, but also the dictatorship of eunuchs, but also the main annexation of powerful people. Although the Tang Dynasty declined later, it could not be called destruction. The reason for the destruction was that Huang Chao was so harmful to Huang Chao, but it was annexation of powerful people. The common people could not survive anymore and had to rebel. Our dynasty was so dense that the annexation became more and more serious. This migration was not only beneficial to the seafarers, but even related to whether the country could last for a long time."

"And not only that, many of you have not presided over the finances of a state or had no financial management experience in the court. So they are often not clear. Not only is it the donation of 150,000 taels of gold. As long as the court releases a little goodwill to them, these seamen will let the Maritime Bureau remove commercial goods. Their scale is extremely large. As long as they let the Maritime Bureau remove the Maritime Bureau remove the money, this is also a considerable income. And there is also an income, which belongs to the inner treasury."

"Zhu Chuping wrote a letter saying that the incense of Qiongzhou Island has become the incense of murder for the people. Why? I deliberately went to the market to ask, "The incense of high-quality incense of Shenmu is worth two to three jin in the capital, and the lowest is more than one jin. However, the price of a science package on Qiongzhou Island is only one hundred and tens of cents. And because it is expensive, easy to carry, the transportation cost is pitifully low. As long as these seamen hand over all the spices and jades to the inner warehouse to operate, why should they exploit the people of Qiongzhou Island? Why is it that the state uses self-sufficient without taxes? This is actually a kind of self-sufficient without taxes."

"Your Majesty, that's all I'm talking about. I only ate breakfast. I'm still empty. Please let me go back."

His belly is empty? It's vulgar and vulgar, Lu Gong thought to himself.

Zhao Xu was ridiculous and said, "Wang Qing, don't worry, I will ask another question, how to choose these eighteen ministers?"

"If you meet these conditions, you must not be cowardly, weak and weak. If you are weak, you will inevitably be seasick at sea. If you are cowardly, you will not even dare to ship in Shanghai. The people on the other side are extremely tough. If you are cowardly, you will not be shocked. It is better not to go. Second, your style is honest. The other side is not a barren place. In fact, the six settlements selected by the maritime merchants are indeed the six largest settlements on the other side, and there are also the prototypes of some small cities. However, the people on the other side often hate officials, and as maritime merchants, you must prevent corruption among all the officials below. Therefore, the requirements for officials are very high, so that the cadre code has been established. If the work style is not clean, if you go there, you will be expelled. Third, you must have the ability. The temporary officials there are all elites in charge selected from various fleets. They are not only proficient in commerce, but also have accumulated a lot of experience in the resettlement and governance of the people over the years. Even in our court, in addition to not having the imperial examination qualifications, they may also be extremely excellent officials. If they are not capable, they will not only become an empty shell, but also lose the face of the court."

"Prince Wang Zi'an, we in the Song Dynasty also need such an official." Wang Gui said in surprise.

"It may not be, just like me, or Zhang Zihou, are all officials of this kind. However, because of their tough style, they may not be recognized by mainstream scholars and officials. Your Majesty, don't worry, anyway, it's experiment and running-in. There is also an official, that is, a quiet official, as long as you go to the other side, don't cause trouble. First, pass on the impression that the court will take over to the people on the other side."

There are not many officials in the former... that's really.

But there should not be too many officials behind.

That's all.

The next day, formal negotiations began.

Wang Ju avoided suspicion and did not participate, and was hosted by Lao Wang and Lu Gong.

However, basically what Wang Ju said, the error is that the seamen were originally planning to donate 100,000 taels of gold, and the gold had been escorted to Hangzhou.

One hundred thousand taels of gold are also good, and Wang and Lu were overjoyed.

However, Wang Ju increased to 150,000 taels of gold, so these seamen promised that part of the arrears would be compensated with the silver they received from Japan after the autumn, and the insufficient part would be brought to Hangzhou next year and handed over to the court.

Then what else can I say?

Watching them leave, in the Political Affairs Hall, Lao Wang said, "Uncle Hui, Wang Zi'an has a bad temper, but few people can match his patriotism."

This arrears were proved that Wang Jusheng added 50,000 taels, but it was not related to Wang Ju. I'm afraid he had raised 50,000 taels. Wang Ju and the ten merchants in Yanzhou lost at least more than 10,000 taels.

Lu Gongzhu also sighed slightly: "He mainly experienced in the military, so he has a bad temper."

In other words, Wang Ju's behavior was vulgar and not as "gentle and elegant" as other scholars and officials.

But on the third day, something happened that made everyone laugh and cry.

The third day was the Chang Dynasty. The Song Dynasty's morning dynasty was divided into two types. One was the Grand Dynasty, and almost all the Beijing officials had to go. The other was the Chang Dynasty, and only important officials were qualified to participate.

But even Changchao, there were two or three hundred officials.

When the ministers had nothing to report and were about to disperse the court, Wang Ju walked out respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the prince and Duke Lu and the Haikes have discussed it. This means that the other side will officially become the territory of the Song Dynasty from then on. Therefore, the map of the Song Dynasty must be re-written. This is the new map of the Song Dynasty presented by me."

As he said that, he took out a roll of thick cloth from his arms and spread it open.

The Song Dynasty is so big now...

Not only did I get Yunnan Road and Jiaozhi Road, especially overseas.

When you go east to New Zealand and Fiji, why do you go to Fiji?

Because there is a larger continent in the east, of course, it is even harder to conquer there. The first is that some countries with relatively developed civilizations have begun to appear there. The level of civilization may be higher than the original Luzon Island civilization. Like the civilization on the Mexican Peninsula, it can be almost comparable to the Three Buddhas.

With a considerable civilization, weapons will be more advanced, and it also means a large-scale army. With the advantages of geographical and human beings, it will be difficult to conquer.

The second is that it is too far, not only far, but also rare islands in the middle, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of supply.

So I slid to Fiji. This year, I will send some fleets to continue to look for some larger islands to the east, and then send a small number of people to develop them as future supply points.

Anyway, if Wang Ju doesn't make any decisions, he will become a white man in more than three hundred years.

Going west, we reach the Flores Sea.

There is no way to take action when going west, because some powerful countries have emerged further west and have a relatively high level of civilization.

However, the fleets also made a lot of profits from them through trade.

Now more than half of the spices are exchanged for the west side of the Frozins Sea, including several small countries on the Java Islands.

But the area of ​​this area is also quite impressive. There is a total of more than 9 million square kilometers of land.

So everyone laughed and laughed after seeing it.

Is this really the territory of the Song Dynasty?

However, Zhao Xu was very happy to see it. If this was not considered the territory of the Song Dynasty, then the Western Regions were considered the territory of the Tang Dynasty. At least this area was governed and managed by Han people.

Actually, it's really hard to say.

Even now, this vast area has less than 2% of the development area, and even a large number of medium and large islands have not been sent to occupy them because of the lack of people.

As for whether the future is considered the territory of the Song Dynasty, it is even hard to say.

But I can satisfy Zhao Xu's vanity for the time being, so I happily accepted it.

So Zhao Xu brought these seamen to the palace to hold a banquet for a banquet.

It was a separate banquet, and no ministers were invited to attend.

However, in the evening, Wang Ju heard two news.

The first is that Zhao Xu gave these dozen "representative" official positions, not those with real power, but all of them were official positions. However, although they were official positions and had high ranks, Zhang Xingguan even gave them the fifth-rank official position of the Chaofeng Duke.

Don’t think that this official position in the fifth rank is not high, because it is related to salary, so it is often not easily transferred to the university.

Just like Zhang Jie, who was transferred to Guangnan as the governor of Guizhou last year, turned out that when he was in Cangzhou, he was just a military farmer and an official from the fifth rank. Because Guizhou was the capital of Guangnan West Road and was in the south, it was even more miserable than in the north, so he was appointed as the dynasty doctor Zhang Jie.

However, Wang Ju estimated that when it came to Zhang Xingguan, he might not be a official, but a rank, with no salary. He would be paid to Zhang Xingguan for the fifth grade. He would have to pay thousands of yuan that year...

The second is the imperial examination.

Wang Ju didn't say much, and Zhang Xingguan just vaguely said that the other side had also established education.

In ancient times, I was very concerned about education, so Zhao Xu asked seriously.

The court was about to appoint officials, and Zhang Xingguan did not hide it. He asked and answered.

Those who migrate there are extremely poor people, and how many people can understand the words.

However, the people who migrated were not only farming, but also how much money could they earn for maritime merchants.

Of course, agriculture should also be taken seriously, as it affects the belly of millions of people.

However, what we pay more attention to is various industry and commerce, such as the cultivation of some special plants, flowers, spices, fruits that make perfumes... Animal Husbandry, foundry, textile, mining, etc.
To be continued...
