Chapter 525: Hands on after the New Year


Wang San's voice fell, and the old man was just silent, if there was a cigarette pouch, it would be more fancy to take a few puffs.

The young man and the women all looked at the old man with a look of great interest.

Zhu Xu also came to his senses, and his expression was thoughtful.

The Ming Dynasty purchased grain from the people and merchants as a reserve grain to deal with the drought everywhere at any time, and there was nothing in itself.

It's just that the development of Daming is uneven, with Jiangnan being the most developed, and the price is relatively high, so the price of grain purchased is higher than that of other places.

In addition, the transportation is relatively convenient now, and the price of transporting grain from the north or other places to Yingtian and Suzhou and Hangzhou will be much higher, but the transportation cost is very low.

This situation reminded Zhu Xu of Moutai in later generations, which sold for thousands in the city and hundreds in the suburbs with a few more steps, which is ten times the difference!

At that time, some people poured into the city from outside the city, and it caused a huge controversy.

Although the price of food is not so outrageous, if the amount is large, the difference will be very considerable!

This is a loophole, Zhu Xu made a gesture to Liu Shimin, asking him to write it down, and when the time comes, he will discuss with Fu Changzong and plug it.

Liu Shimin understood and nodded lightly.

Although the rest of the Wang family moved, but the old man didn't speak, it was useless for anyone to move, Wang San stared at the old man surnamed Wang, patted his thigh and said: "Uncle, what is there to hesitate about, okay, I'll give me half a percent, I won't earn you anymore, you just give me a face, okay?"

Help my nephew, do you want me to ask my father to persuade you?

” The old man was expressionless, and he held back his anger, and said in a stiff tone: "If you don't sell it, you don't sell it!"

” Wang San didn't expect that his uncle would refuse so simply, leaving no room at all, his face changed, he didn't tear his face after all, and snorted coldly: "If you don't sell it, it's someone who sells it!"

” The young men and women looked at Wang San's back and were a little speechless, but the old man breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhu Xu and smiled: "Let the son laugh, they are all crooked and heretical, and they don't take the right path." ” Zhu Xu smiled and said nothing, sighing in his heart, at any time, it is a crooked way to make a lot of money, naturally, it is also accompanied by risks, such as the risk of this Wang San suddenly came like this.

The young man drank a few sips of soup, looked up at the old man, and muttered: "Dad, it's time for our house to be repaired, I think the red brick house of Brother Dazhu's house is good, it is quite strong against the wind and rain." ” The old man was meaningless, and said after a while: "Well, okay, I'll go to Dazhu and ask where you bought the red bricks, and we can get the mud ourselves." ” The young man bowed his head as if he was eating, and said in a muffled voice: "It would be better if there were a few glass windows, it would be better than pasting paper......

The old man snorted coldly, ignoring Zhu Xu's presence, and directly lectured: "Don't you know how expensive that glass is?"

As soon as your eldest brother's bride price falls, you will have to toss, do you still have my father in your eyes!

” The young man lowered his head and chewed the steamed bun vigorously, although he did not speak, he was obviously still dissatisfied.

Zhu Xu can guess the young man's thoughts, it is nothing more than a big benefit, he doesn't, Zhu Xu patted his ass and stood up, looked at the old man and smiled: "The glass is there, how much do you want, I'll give it to you!"

” The old man, the young man and the woman were all stunned, and before they could speak, Zhu Xu stood up and walked back with his hands behind his back.

He already has a rough idea in his heart, according to the acres of land in the southwest, judging from the disaster situation, there are twenty acres, and a family of seven should barely have enough food and clothing, and thirty taxes and one is also appropriate.

The next thing to do is to transfer the affected population, and second, to organize the people in the affected areas to unite and collectively cultivate and use the land collectively to increase their ability to resist disasters.

Third, it is what the imperial court should do, including understanding the disaster situation in a timely manner, providing relief through work, cracking down on corrupt officials at the bottom, and so on.

The old man's family looked at each other, they knew that the young man in front of them was a nobleman, but they didn't expect that he could easily give them the expensive glassware that was exclusive to the rich family.

A forbidden soldier stepped forward to record their names and addresses, and then quickly caught up with Zhu Xu's carriage, which had been slowly starting.

Zhu Xu was in the carriage, looking thoughtful.

Next year is the fifth year of Chongzhen, according to the original history is the fourth year of Chongzhen, the situation is relatively okay, although the more difficult the days will be, the more complicated the situation will be, but he is more and more confident.

Zhu Xu sat in the carriage and staggered towards the capital.

The reform has entered a critical period, and Zhu Xu's goal is that the Ming Dynasty is the largest and most well-established group, and they hold all the power at the grassroots level of the Ming Dynasty, the so-called squire, the so-called landlord class.

This group of people is the most difficult to deal with, it is like a warship declaring war on the whole sea, it seems that it can gallop fearlessly, but at any moment a storm can strike and the ship capsizes.

Zhu Xu's face was solemn and he exhaled softly.

Things have to come step by step, too much.

He knows very well that since he ascended the throne, the reform has been too fast, and many people can't keep up, it seems that his imperial power is stable, but it is also full of crises, and the next plate is unstable.

"The situation is not ......"

Zhu Xu shook his head secretly, in fact, he had to race against time, so he could only walk cautiously and quickly, and when necessary, he had to make great strides.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Xu recruited Wei Zhongxian and Fu Changzong.

As soon as Liu Shimin said this, Fu Changzong frowned, raised his hand and said to Zhu Xu: "Your Majesty, this acquisition starts from this year's summer harvest, and then the autumn harvest, a total of two times, this situation should be the first time, or a few, and there is still time to rectify." ” Zhu Xu's expression was cold, his eyes were implicitly murderous, and he said: "Grain storage is a matter of the imperial court, and no one is allowed to interfere!"

The household department must find a way to plug the loopholes, and strictly regulate such behavior!

Dongchang can investigate according to these regulations, but anyone who wants to suck blood from the treasury must be severely punished, and no leniency will be allowed!

” The emperor's large-scale grain reserves, naturally to deal with the increasingly serious drought, whether it is Fu Changzong or Wei Zhongxian, they all know in their hearts, listening to the emperor's undisguised murderous aura, they are all shocked, and hurriedly raised their hands and said: "The minister obeys the order!"

” Zhu Xu nodded slightly, looking at Fu Changzongdao; "How much grain is stored in the top ten warehouses now?"

This Fu Changzong was familiar with it, and raised his hand and said: "Back to the emperor, the annual consumption of the imperial court is about 10 million stones, and there are 43 million stones in the top ten warehouses, plus 10 million stones of sweet potatoes. ” Zhu Xu's expression did not move, and he calculated silently in his heart.

The reason for these is that the imperial court has reduced its expenditure, the officials have increased their money and other cash use, and their food expenditure has decreased.

Second, we have acquired a lot this year and increased inventory.

The third is that the sweet potato has been partially replaced.

Fourth, the need for disaster relief in the southwest has been reduced.

All kinds of things have saved a lot of food for the imperial court, and in disguise, commerce has become active, and commercial taxes are also increasing, so a virtuous circle has been formed.

Zhu Xu turned many thoughts in his heart for a while, looked at Fu Changzong and nodded: "Well, grain procurement cannot be stopped, and the sowing area of sweet potatoes must be expanded, especially in Liaodong and other places, large-scale reclamation must be ......"

Liaodong can be said to be a wasteland to be reclaimed, the key is that there are few people, and the immigrants of the imperial court will not be able to transfer much for a while and a half, and the population is small, and the reclamation will be slow, which will take time.

Fu Changzong's proposal to call on people from all over the world to go to Liaodong to reclaim land for silver, which still needs to be discussed with Sun Chuanting, the prime minister of Liaodong, hesitated and did not report to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu said for a while, then turned to Wei Zhongxian and said, "I asked you to raise the case, how is it?"

” Wei Zhongxian bowed there, and said with an unmoving expression: "Back to the emperor, it's almost over, if you do it, Shan Jiang.

Su, at least 30 magistrates were involved in corruption, soliciting bribes, seizing people's land, beating people's lives, staying overnight in Qinglou, and so on, which was enough to dismiss officials and seize their posts, and arrest them and take them to prison. ” Zhu Xu's jaw head, now Jiang.

Su has a later Shi'an.

Hui,Jiangsu,Zhejiang.

The three provinces of Jiangjiang are so big, and they are the most prosperous and prosperous places in the humanities, economy and culture in the south of the Yangtze River.

The wind in the south of the Yangtze River blows all over the world, the so-called ten-mile Qinhuai River, the so-called Suzhou and Hangzhou, the so-called West Lake River, that is the paradise of readers, poetry and songs, wine and famous prostitutes, drunk and dreaming of death, enough to forget everything in the world!

Zhu Xu tapped his fingers on the tabletop for a while, and then said in a deep voice, "Okay!"

Just from the river.

Su begins, you order the East Factory to prepare, and wait for my will after the year!

” Wei Zhongxian has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and said, "Slave and maid obey the order!"
