Chapter 619: If you don’t learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, there is magic everywhere
The Ming Dynasty’s foreign policy is very moderate.
Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has formulated fifteen countries that cannot be conquered. Except for the unswerving attack on the Northern Yuan Dynasty and the elimination of the previous dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has not launched a sustained war to destroy the country. Annan's campaign mainly focused on defensive counterattacks.
Annan, which was actually occupied during the Yongle period, was reluctantly abandoned during the Xuande period, and was confirmed to be abandoned during the Zhengtong period. Some people in the court believed that Zhu Di's occupation of Annan violated the fifteen principles of the emperor's ancestral precepts. The fact that the country was conquered cannot be violated according to the laws established by the ancestors, and it was also the political correctness of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Cong, Gui E and others criticized San Yang, mainly to criticize the Confucian scholars who only stick to the ancestral laws, are stubborn and do not know how to adapt.
Kanda Shinichi actually knows the Ming Dynasty very well. Because it is a celestial country, it naturally has to be magnanimous and magnanimous. To put it more simply and understandably, it is to love face.
Given enough face to Ming Dynasty, no matter how big a problem it is, it will pass.
But now Kanda Shinichi clearly knows that Ming has changed and this trick no longer works. Now Ming has become aggressive and has completely lost his grace. He cares about everything and fights for every cent.
After the seventeenth article, there is the Silver and Sulfur Treaty. The Silver and Sulfur Treaty has additional clauses, Tsushima Island and war reparations of 15 million silver.
Oda Nobunaga will not sign this treaty, and the only one who can sign it is him, Shinichi Kanda, and he must sign it, unless Shinichi Kanda is crazy and wants an all-out war.
"Let me report to the generals in the country and then make a decision." Kanda Shinichi rolled his eyes and was about to use the procrastination technique. This is a common trick used by the Ming Dynasty's humble scholars. For many things, big things turn into small things, and small things turn into nothing. Things happen, very useful.
As you drag it on, people no longer pay attention.
Kanda Shinichi is a bureaucrat trained by various Confucian classics. The entire East has been influenced by Confucian culture, so it is natural that he knows how to belittle Confucianism.
The corner of Gao Qiyu's mouth curved into a smile, and he had a sense of déjà vu when he was facing the lowly Confucians in the court. There were too many lowly Confucians in the Ming Dynasty, and they used all kinds of tricks. Over the years, Gao Qiyu had seen a lot of them. In Rui's words, it's just an old trick.
In terms of how to be a humble Confucian, Ming Dynasty is the living ancestor of the Japanese country.
"You want to drag it out? Oh, it doesn't matter. Marquis Shuri has already led the navy to Osaka Bay. I believe that Oda Nobunaga will send the signed treaty to the Ming Dynasty." Gao Qiyu told A desperate reality for Kanda Shinichi was that Ming Dynasty did not stop attacking because of the visit of his envoy.
No one stipulates that war and negotiation cannot be carried out at the same time.
When Kanda Shinichi heard this, his expression changed from frightened shock, to bewildered confusion, and finally to lifeless dejection. This time, Japan resisted the Ming Dynasty's deep interference in Japan's national affairs. Japan was defeated, and there was no Xiong Yeshui. The division means that the Ming Dynasty navy can land at any place suitable for landing on the long coastline, and then launch an attack on the Japanese country.
“I solemnly tell you again that because His Majesty was worried about the safety of the Nagasaki Governor’s Palace, he was extremely cautious about the Silver and Sulfur Treaty and asked the Nagasaki Governor’s Palace to discuss it again, but he refused to agree and the court meeting did not pass it. You have initiated the war yourself, and you must bear the consequences of the war yourself.”
“The Ming Dynasty has never lost its magnanimity, and your Majesty has always been a benevolent emperor. You are entirely to blame for this!”
"Moreover, the Kumano Navy is entrenched in Kumano Beach and staying in its lair. The Daming Navy has nothing to do, because the Kumano Navy knows Kumano Beach better, but it has to go to Nagasaki to fight."
Gao Qiyu's words made Shinichi Kanda was even more depressed.
Kanda Shinichi is a representative figure of the Japanese resistance group, and now, it turns out that their resistance is like a joke, bringing extremely bad consequences, and they need to bear the wrath of the Ming Dynasty.
The Xiongye Navy stayed in Xiongye Beach, and Ming Dynasty really had nothing to do, because Xiongye Beach was shrouded in the fog of war. Daming knew very little about Xiongye Beach, and a rash attack would pay an extremely heavy price, but now Xiongye Beach The division has been completely wiped out.
It doesn’t matter that Kanda Shinichi played the drag battle. The Ming Dynasty Navy continued to attack. The Osaka Bay garrison of Senhe could be used as a springboard to penetrate directly into the heart of Japan, Kyoto - Heian Kyo.
Sometimes, Gao Qiyu didn't know how to evaluate the Japanese country. These Japanese pirates really stole everything, even the names of places.
Ping'an Jing, the capital of the Japanese Kingdom, is divided into east and west parts with the central axis Suzaku Street as the axis. The east part is built after the pattern of Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty and is called Luoyang. The west part is built after Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty and is called Chang'an. Chang'an and Luoyang are collectively called Kyoto.
Later 'Chang'an' weakened, and 'Luoyang' became synonymous with the Japanese Kyoto.
The Japanese country has a special word called Shangluo, which is the process of the Warring States Daimyo leading troops to invade Kyoto. It is called Shangluo. The Muromachi shogunate did this, and Oda Nobunaga completed Shangluo in the second year of Takakei.
The Ming Dynasty's strategy against Japan is very clear. From the Nagasaki Governor's Palace at the bridgehead, to the Osaka Bay Guards Senhu Station, and now to the isolation of the country, they are trying their best to turn Japan into a semi-colony. In a semi-feudal society, all the dirty work was done by the Azuchi shogunate and the Sengoku daimyo, but all the benefits went to the Ming Dynasty.
Semi-colonial and semi-feudalism is more cruel than full colony or full feudalism. The whole colony is one's own industry, so naturally we have to find every way to maintain stability. Just like before, when Suiyuan was not called Suiyuan, it was still in the hands of Anda Khan and Tuman Khan. The Ming Dynasty could even think of tricks to encourage Lamaism. Once they got it, the court immediately changed its face and flexibly switched from supporting Lamaism to destroying Lamaism.
Full feudalism is the strict hierarchical world constructed by Confucianism. Although the hierarchy is strict, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. No matter how bad the order is, it is still order.
Semi-colonial and semi-feudal means that local feudal forces can survive without the recognition of local citizens. Then all order is for you to serve the suzerain.
The Ming Dynasty is doing its best to weaken the resistance of the Japanese country and let them kill themselves. This is cruelty that Your Majesty does not care about.
His Majesty cares about Anda Khan very much. Even though Anda Khan is very old, he still bullies Anda Khan because he is old. He wants to drag Anda Khan to the capital hall and behead him in public, as a tribute to the past twenty-five years. The war of 2016 was brought to a final conclusion, giving everyone a final result.
This is caring.
The Ming Emperor did not care about the Japanese, His Majesty only wanted to destroy the Japanese.
It’s just that the Ming Dynasty’s miscellaneous newspapers did not seem to care about the Ming Dynasty’s great victory in Japan. The miscellaneous newspapers simply published the results of the victory. Some miscellaneous newspapers also described the process in slightly detail. , talked about the participating parties in the Ming Dynasty, the scale of the enemy and ourselves; some miscellaneous reports simply said one sentence: The Japanese attacked Nagasaki, Shurihou rushed to the rescue and wiped them out.
This is also an old tradition. If you win with one sentence, you will lose with a long speech.
Compared with Nagasaki's great victory, miscellaneous newspapers were more concerned about the issue of cowpox. As for cowpox, almost all miscellaneous newspapers were opposed to it. The special report conducted by Gewu Daily was drowned out by the noise. Zhu Yijun immediately ordered the Ministry of Rites It was only when Ge Wu Bao's research on cowpox was published in Di Bao that the matter was fully explained.
But judging from the reactions from all parties, they are still opposed.
"I am a human being, not a god. What does this mean? If you are vaccinated with cowpox, will you be controlled by me, the living king of hell?" Zhu Yijun spread his hands and responded to the conspiracy theory in the newspapers. I can only support my forehead.
In the descriptions in the newspapers, vaccination became a ritual of some mysterious power, and the sown cowpox became a brand, and was then affected to the point of unconsciousness, becoming a loyal servant and lackey of the emperor, and then became a loyal servant and lackey of the emperor. We are calling on everyone not to vaccinate themselves. It’s really weird to vaccinate your body with the help of your parents. It’s still weird cowpox.
The emperor is the living king of hell, the great medical officer is the bull-headed horse-faced person, the Huimin Pharmacy affiliated with Jieguyuan and Taiyuan Hospital is the enchanting city god in various places, and vaccination with cowpox is a ritual.
"This is not outrageous. Some people say that people who are vaccinated will go to hell after death, and it will be the eighteenth level." Feng Bao took out an even more outrageous newspaper and placed it on His Majesty's desk. In front of me, this one is even more outrageous. Even if I go to hell, it is still the eighteenth level of hell.
If you don’t learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, there will be magic everywhere.
For the scholar-officials of the Ming Dynasty, vaccination with cowpox can prevent smallpox, which is a fantasy. A mere cowpox can prevent such a terrible disease as smallpox? To them this is an incomprehensible spell.
“I have issued an order to the Jieguyuan to vaccinate me and my family members tomorrow.” Zhu Yijun chose to personally support the cause of vaccination in the Jieguyuan.
During the Kangxi period, Kang Mazi once organized 400 court ladies to be vaccinated with variola. Four of them died. In a land where smallpox was raging, half of the deaths were minor. This 1% The mortality rate is really low.
Then he ordered the vaccination of the princes and princesses. Later Kangxi recalled this incident in "Tingren Motto" and said proudly:
In the early days of the Republic of China, many people were afraid of acne. As for my vaccination prescription, all my children and your children are fine after vaccination. Today, the forty-nine banners outside the border and all the vassals in Khalkha are all ordered to be vaccinated against acne, and all the acne will be cured.
I remember that when I first planted the seed, the old people thought it was strange, but I did it with determination and saved the lives of tens of millions of people. Is it an accident?
Since the Kangxi period, the method of variolation has been adopted, which has become the ancestral method.
The method of variolation in the Kangxi era was to sow good seedlings. To cultivate good seedlings, it was actually inactivated. The vaccine was taken from smallpox patients, killed in a water bath, and then planted in the nose.
Feng Bao thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, I think we can wait a little longer. After all, the smallpox epidemic on the grasslands is extremely serious. We will wait for the border residents to be vaccinated. If it is effective, we will wait until Pang Xian is awarded the award. It is appropriate to make a decision. "
The large-scale implementation will be tried on the grassland first. If it works, it will be promoted widely. If it doesn't, it will be punished without delay.
"That's fine, don't wait." Zhu Yijun accepted the good advice and chose to accept Feng Bao's advice. The main reason was that the miscellaneous newspapers could continue to quarrel. The more intense the quarrel, the better. At that time, with Pang Xian's experimental data in the grassland, it became a matter of course to promote the cowpox method.
"The Chidao from Shengzhou to Datong Prefecture is open to traffic!" Zhu Yijun looked at the report from Shanxi Governor Zhou Liangyin, clicked several times and said: "Next chapter, the Ministry of War, the Sixth Engineer Regiment Battalion participating in the construction , the top and bottom are rewarded with five silver coins!”
“Okay!”
The Engineer Regiment Battalion is also called the Yongzi Regiment Battalion, such as the Sixth Engineer Regiment Battalion from Shengzhou to Datong Prefecture. The real name is Angryong Battalion, but Zhu Yijun prefers to call them the Sixth Engineer Regiment Battalion.
There is an open-pit coal yard in Shengzhou (today's Ordos). There are two entrances to the coal from the Shengzhou coal yard. The first one is from Shuofangfu, Guihua City, and Daqingshan to Xuanfukou City. The second one is directly from Shuofangfu. Going to Datong Prefecture and then entering Xuanfukou City is an important part of the coal-to-silver convection. The connection of this channel means that the scale of the coal-to-silver convection will further expand.
The Ming Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous.
Since the defeat of Bansheng City built by Anda Khan in the ninth year of Wanli, Ming Dynasty’s hand reaching out to Hetao finally became a big tangible hand.
"Xuan Chen Mo is here to see you." Zhu Yijun Zhu finished all the memorials and announced to Chen Mo, who had just returned to Beijing, that he needed to know about the journey of the downstream school group. Since Lin Fucheng and Li Zhi left Beijing, Zhu Yijun had never seen the excitement, mainly because the level of gatherings in Beijing was really limited. In mid-May, Lin Fucheng and Li Zhi's study tour group of fifty people finally followed Chidao Returned to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Emperor was able to use his name as Mr. Huang again to watch the fun.
"I pay homage to your Majesty, long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty." Chen Mo put on his Feiyu suit and paid homage respectfully.
"Without courtesy, sit down and talk." Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Did the trip go well?"
"It's hard to say." Chen Mo's expression was extremely complicated. He thought for a moment and said: " Your Majesty, I would rather take a hundred children than fifty Confucian scholars to the grassland. It is really too difficult."
"Oh? Tell me in detail," Zhu Yijun said with interest. .
Chen Mo frowned and said: "At the beginning, the study tour group thought that the Tiqi sent by His Majesty was not to protect them, but to monitor them. We were not allowed to get too close, and we were not prepared to interfere. According to the The minister’s plan was actually to reach Kaipingwei before the heavy snowfall, but it was all delayed because of these Confucian scholars.”
“No one wants to do physical work, but someone has to take care of food and drink, and there is not enough animal power. , no one carried it, and some Confucian scholars even quarreled over who was qualified to ride in the car. Not only did they not want to carry their own food and drink, they also argued about riding in the car, and even refused to walk. In the end, they threw away part of their food and drink and all sat on it. "
"This part of the baggage was discovered by the observing Tiqi and picked it up."
Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't they bring any servants?"
< br>"Bring the servants and the Tiqi together." Chen Mo also explained the reason in detail. The servants were all brought, but only two per person were allowed. The servants were rushed to go with the Tiqi. One table, the reason is not complicated. Since it is a study tour, we must practice it.
Chen Mo did not call the study tour group "Confucianism" because the study tour group is really not Confucianism. At least the study tour group is willing to practice it and practice it. This is ten thousand times better than Confucianism.
Chen Mo described the entire study tour process in detail.
On the first day, part of the discarded baggage hit the Confucian scholar on the forehead like a boomerang, because the tools for making fire were all among the discarded baggage. The grassland was very cold, and the temperature difference It's so big that it can't light a fire, and it's no different than killing people.
Chen Mo had no choice but to return the baggage he picked up to the Confucian scholar.
"Ah? Drink raw water? Are you crazy?" Zhu Yijun looked at Chen Mo blankly, and said blankly: "Didn't they light a fire? How can they drink raw water? Li Zhi, Lin Fucheng and the others don't Do you know?”
"That day, half of the 50-person study tour group began to have diarrhea, leading to collapse and dehydration." Chen Mo said helplessly: "I don't let the Confucian students drink the stream water. I told them that it is unclean. The Confucian scholars also said that I Nosy, but also told the minister that this is such an inaccessible place, how can you not drink the naturally clear water? "
Naturally clear water, pure and pollution-free, this is why Confucian scholars insist that the stream water can be drunk? But it was precisely for this reason that more than 20 people had diarrhea that day and were dehydrated. This directly caused the entire study tour group to stand still for three days, which greatly delayed the travel plan.
“The Confucian scholars soon started fighting among themselves. Li Zhi, who had the most survival experience, was squeezed out first, and then Lin Fucheng. After the two people were squeezed out, they immediately started fighting among themselves. They really gave in.” When Chen Mo talked about this experience, his whole face turned dark. This caused quite a disturbance.
Chen Mo answered His Majesty’s question as to why Lin Fucheng and Li Zhi didn’t remind them because they were excluded.
Due to internal fighting, three people got together and muttered that the Tiqi were far away. If one of them didn't notice, the three people ran away and almost didn't find them.
They left on their own and soon got lost. When they got lost, they ran around, making it easier for Tiqi to find him. If he didn’t run around, it wouldn’t be that hard to find. The three of them even started fighting among themselves and went their separate ways. If he didn't bring the person back, Chen Mo would also be responsible.
Later, the Tiqi had no choice but to stay closer to prevent further accidents.
"There are internal conflicts among the Confucian scholars, but there are no Tiqi?" Zhu Yijun started riding military horses at the age of ten, but he had no marching experience.
"Yes, the most indispensable thing in this Tiqi is the thorn head. I took care of them all, and then I obeyed." Chen Mo said with a smile: "I have been working as a warrior on the grassland for five years. Duntai Yuanhou, it is very easy to deal with a few thorns. "
In the army, the strong is king, and fists are the last word. Chen Mo has rich survival experience, and he is also very capable. As soon as he left the Xuan Mansion, he established his leadership position on the same day and quickly made Tiqi and his servants obedient.
"Confucian scholars never seem to plan anything. On the seventh day, water and food shortages began. Lin Fucheng and Li Zhi were driven to Tiqi. Yao Guangming, the second young master of the Yao family, came to ask for help. I asked someone to borrow I bought a batch of water and food, and when I arrived, the Confucian scholar saw a wild boar and planned to crush it with his bare hands! "Chen Mo stared and said, "That's a wild boar."
One pig and two. The three bears and tigers are not talking about the strength of the beasts, but the degree of danger to people. The first one is the wild boar, because the wild boar is more common, and has a ferocious personality and is not afraid of people. The number of bears and tigers is much smaller, and their nature is extremely It is alert and will take the initiative to avoid it, because the terrifying erectus is not easy to mess with, especially people with weapons.
Pressing the wild boar with his bare hands seemed to Chen Mo like he was seeking death. Chen Mo rushed over quickly, took a bow and shot an arrow, and wounded the wild boar. Finally, after other Tiqi riders arrived, he killed the wild boar. The siege and killing prevented it from causing tragedy.
On the seventh day, the Tiqi and the Confucian scholars finally joined forces. These Confucian scholars who were willing to go to the grasslands to study were actually not cheap Confucians, but they had their own pride, but these prides soon fell. In front of ruthless nature.
Only seven days later, these Confucian scholars accepted the reality and changed from being self-reliant to being a young master being served by servants. Chen Mo was thankful for being taken care of without causing trouble.
Pride was shattered, kindness was deceived, cognition was subverted, compassion was exploited, sincerity was let down, etc., these are all Chen Mo’s reports. The Confucian scholars’ study tour in the grassland was quite fruitful. At least the Ming Dynasty lost fifty Confucian scholars who might become cheap Confucians.
"Does Lin Fucheng know that Mr. Huang is me?" Zhu Yijun was curious. Almost a year has passed. Is it possible that Lin Fucheng still hasn't guessed the identity of the emperor?
“At first I thought he was simply confused, but later I discovered that he was really confused. Li Zhi knew His Majesty’s identity and hinted to him many times, but Lin Fucheng didn’t hear it.” Chen Mozhen I thought Lin Fucheng was pretending to be confused, but later I discovered that Lin Fucheng really thought that Mr. Huang in the General's Mansion could do whatever he wanted.
Once, Li Zhi mentioned that the transfer of Tiqi requires a decree, which is yellow paper, and the emperor writes the transfer in his own hand. Lin Fucheng said of course: The general is the leader of military honors, so his majesty will naturally give preferential treatment. This is because rewards and punishments are clear;
Li Zhi also said: If more than a hundred people are mobilized, the Ministry of War is required. Lin Fucheng replied: It should be so. Military affairs are important affairs of the country, so we must be cautious;
Li Zhi made it clear: The Tiqi accompanying the guard are the holy will! Generals also have the same difficulties as generals. It is very taboo to ask Tiqi to be adjusted!
But Lin Fucheng felt that Qi Shuai was fighting the Japanese in the south and resisting the prisoners in the north. Of course, the general's office could make the final decision in terms of military affairs.
Later, Li Zhi gave up telling Lin Fucheng the truth unless it was revealed directly.
In the afternoon of the next day, Zhu Yijun went to Yanxing Tower. First, he had to go to Yanxing Tower to check the accounts. This was also the time to check the accounts every ten days. The accounts of Yanxing Tower Trading House were mainly Three thousandths of the stamp duty and shipping tickets were raised; secondly, it was to clear the dust for Lin Fucheng and Li Zhi.
The two men’s trip to the grassland was not in vain. At least they confirmed the necessity of the order to exterminate the Buddha.
Ship tickets are still in full swing, but because private purchases of five-masted transoceanic ships have been opened to private purchases, the number of five-masted transoceanic ships in the trading house has always remained at the level of five per month, causing an economic crisis in the trading house. Comprador dissatisfaction.
I could have had extra meals, but the extra meals were snatched away by the gentry from Jiangnan!
The main people who subscribed to the Yanxinglou Trading House were the powerful powerful people from the north. They did not have the geographical advantage, so naturally they could not go to sea in person. From the perspective of the powerful powerful people from the north, the southern gentry petitioned for the opening of five-masted ships to cross the ocean. The ship is competing with them for profit! This big ship should be controlled by the imperial court!
"When I was not allowed to buy a boat, I was said to be living alone. Now I am allowed to buy a boat, and I sell each boat for 50,000 silver. I also say that the imperial court has lost its majesty. How can I do it wrong!" Zhu Yijun said with both hands He stood up and said to Wang Qian: "Master Wang, you see, I am an emperor, and my one muscle has turned into two obstacles."
"No matter what I do, they are not satisfied, right? ”
"Yes, as long as the money does not completely go into their pockets, the powerful and right-wing people will always have complaints. No decree or thing can satisfy everyone." Wang Qian bowed his head and said.
Wang Qian’s meaning is very obvious. Since he cannot satisfy everyone, he must satisfy the people who are loyal to the monarch and the country under conditions, so that more people will unite with His Majesty.
"Someone has the idea of building a shipyard." Wang Qian said with a very ugly face: "I heard that someone has been making noise recently and plotting to build the five major shipyards of the Ming Dynasty."
Longjiang, Songjiang, The five major shipyards in Michigan, Fuzhou, and Guangzhou are not just five official factories, but five industrial groups. The scale of these five official factories is determined by the length of the shipbuilding industry chain.
The rumbling public opinion mainly focuses on criticizing competing for profits with the people, criticizing the rigidity of the government and factories, criticizing the corruption of the officials and factories, and criticizing the officials and factories for neglecting the essentials.
Rigidity and corruption have always been issues of concern to the imperial court, and they have carried out several corruption eradication campaigns. Rigidity is also gradually improving, and criticism is mainly about the scale of criticism.
“The five major shipyards now have 150,000 craftsmen, and these 150,000 men are all strong men. If the craftsmen do not manage farming, they are abandoning the good and chasing the weak. Some people plan to put the responsibility of abandoning the land on the head of the official factory. Go up." Wang Qian leaned forward and said, "These guys are just interested in the profits of the official factory, and they want the official factory itself, not for the desolation of the land."
"There is no official. When factories were established, the land was also abandoned, which was inevitable due to the natural closure of the small-scale peasant economy."
Lin Fucheng and Li Zhi explained when discussing the limitations, closedness, and unreasonable distribution of the small-scale peasant economy. This cycle.
Because of irrational distribution, food cannot be commercialized, those who need it have no consumption ability, and those with consumption ability have no demand, and production has stagnated;
Due to limitations, productivity and production means are backward, and the ability to resist risks is extremely weak. In a natural disaster, even rich farmers and landlords will be displaced, and production is unstable;
Because of the closed nature, there is no place where there is a food shortage. Grain, where there is no shortage of grain, grain accumulates and rots. The lack of transportation capacity has caused this common phenomenon, and grain cannot flow smoothly;
The reasons for land abandonment are extremely complicated, including government, factory, and engineering corps. The camp absorbs homeless people for the sake of the overall stability of the Ming Dynasty.
"Lao Wange also told me about the problem you mentioned." Zhu Yijun sneered and said, "I have been saying all day long that the official factory I run is made of scrap metal. How can I take it out of my own hands?" How come everyone is so energetic? This official plantation has half of my shares, and they have several regiments in their hands to compete with me!"
Da Ming Kaihai currently has half of the shares! Two heavy assets, one is a shipyard, and the other is a 150 overseas plantations. These 150 plantations have more than 1.5 million hectares of land, which is not much, that is, 15000 acres. Just a plantation.
Zhu Yijun is the biggest landlord in the world today!
Among these two heavy assets, half of the shares are owned by internal funds, that is, the emperor himself. When the investment was first launched, Zhu Yijun teamed up with all parties and spent 37.12 million silver to build it.
Isn’t seeking an official factory just competing with the emperor for profit?
The greed and stinginess of the Ming Emperor were known to everyone from Ireland to Nagasaki.
