The reason why Zhu Youxiao let Zhang Yunxiu serve as the magistrate of Qufu was mainly because Zhu Youxiao couldn't let Qufu be all eunuchs.He hoped that Zhang Yunxiu could supervise and balance these eunuchs.Moreover, Zhang Yunxiu is now a new noble, and he has a certain knowledge base, and Zhu Youxiao also needs to let Xungui start to participate in the affairs of the imperial court, so as to balance the civil official group in the future.Therefore, he thought of Zhang Yunxiu after letting Zhang Tongchang come to Qufu, and asked Zhang Yunxiu to serve as the magistrate of Qufu County, and he was directly controlled by him, the emperor.The ministers only felt that Qufu was directly accepted by the emperor as the imperial village, and thought that the emperor Zhu Youxiao wanted to collect more land into his private pocket.But in fact, after Qufu became Zhu Youxiao's imperial village, Zhu Youxiao has been posting money to Qufu.Because the rent collected by Zhu Youxiao in Qufu was simply not enough for him to spend on the pilot project of civilian education in Qufu.This is also the reason why Zhu Youxiao, after confiscating the Yansheng Mansion, directly changed the confiscated other fields into state-owned farms instead of re-collecting them as imperial farms.He, the emperor's income, is also limited now, and there is no way to carry out civilian education in too many imperial villages, so he can only first classify the confiscated other fields as state-owned, first divide the land among the people, and wait for the future when the imperial court's income increases, and the imperial village has educated enough talents and he is stronger as an emperor, and then popularize education in these state-run farms."
Long live the emperor, long live, long live!""
Long live the emperor, long live, long live!""
Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"
…… When Zhu Youxiao came to Qufu, all the people of Qufu who had gathered outside Qufu City knelt down one after another like a tide and shouted loudly.The people of Qufu now have a special admiration for Zhu Youxiao.Because from the beginning when Zhang Tongchang divided the fields in Qufu, he began to preach to these people, and they were rescued by the emperor's will.In addition, the guards led by Zhang Tongchang at that time did a lot of things to help the people in order to practice how to make the people identify with Wang Shi, instead of letting the people treat the officers and soldiers as bandits as before, so that the people here began to know that the emperor not only needs them to be in awe of the gods and is a high-ranking existence, but also a true bodhisattva who can rescue them and bring them happiness.What's more, now these Qufu people are the first generation of Huangzhuang tenants who have been exploited and oppressed by the Confucian family before, and they still have a painful memory of the big landlords like the Confucian family.Therefore, these people worship the emperor even more, thinking that the emperor is here to rescue them, and they do not have sympathy for a big landlord like the Kong family, and feel that a big landlord like the Kong family has excellent family genes and upbringing, even if they are defeated now, their descendants will still be better than ordinary people in the future.Worshipping a bodhisattva does not necessarily lead to good luck.But worshipping the emperor can really feel that there is more food at home.Therefore, Zhu Youxiao, the emperor, is really more worthy of worship than the Bodhisattva in the eyes of the people of Qufu now.The people of Qufu all want to see the emperor's true face.Even the children want to see the emperor's true face, because they see the portrait of the Son of Heaven written "benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom, faith, heaven and earth" in the school every day, so they want to know whether there is a difference between the portrait of the Son of Heaven and the emperor's true face.However, Zhu Youxiao has been sitting in the imperial chariot.Because of the obstruction of the sedan curtain, no one can see his true face specifically, only his back and sideways.Of course, there is still a big difference between the portrait of the Son of Heaven in the school and Zhu Youxiao himself, the former in order to deliberately make Zhu Youxiao, who is not yet a weak crown, look more majestic, and he has to paint Zhu Youxiao a little older and darker.The real Zhu Youxiao himself is still a jade-faced teenager.Su Qianqian, who was hiding in the house with a group of female dependents to peek at the emperor, saw Zhu Youxiao's angular side face at this time, and also found that the emperor was much younger and more heroic than in the painting.Su Qianqian saw it, and it seemed that all of a sudden, Zhu Youxiao's side face was engraved into her mind.Zhu Youxiao also glanced at these Qufu people who looked like they were treating him as a bodhisattva, and only smiled slightly.His current mood is very complicated, he feels that he is just collecting a little less rent than the Kong family, giving them a chance to study wisely, but he is not worthy of being looked at so scorchingly, and even, his original intention is really not for these people, but for his own self-help in this world.…… A month later, Zhu Youxiao, who had been slowly and leisurely along the way, came to Tianjin New Town, which he had built by order in the first year of the Apocalypse.However, Zhu Youxiao had already issued an order to Hua Yuncheng, the governor of Tianjin, in advance, so that he did not have to go out of the city to greet him, but only wore civilian clothes to meet him in the suburbs, and Zhu Youxiao himself entered Tianjin City in microclothes.Zhu Youxiao said that it was a micro-service, but he didn't really take a few entourages into Tianjin City on foot, or disguised as a caravan, after all, there were too many people following him around him.Therefore, Zhu Youxiao still entered Tianjin City in a car that looked like an ordinary carriage but actually had various protective measures inside.Yu Linwei and Jinyi Weiqi, who were disguised as caravan members, still surrounded Zhu Youxiao's carriage on three floors inside and three layers outside, and there were bright and secret sentinels scattered around.Now Tianjin has become the manufacturing center of Daming.All kinds of manufacturing workshops serving the royal monopoly and government-run manufacturing institutions such as the Ministry of Internal Works, the Ministry of Works, and the Harbour Master's Bureau are concentrated here.A large number of looms and spinning machines used in the well-developed government-run textile industry in Jiangnan, as well as some parts and components needed by the Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau, as well as some components needed by the Harbour Bureau, were produced here.In addition, Zhu Youxiao abolished the craftsman household system and exempted the craftsmen from the class craftsman silver, so that the craftsmen were more free, and the craftsmen all came here.In addition, a large number of landless displaced people have entered the technical schools run by the government in this area to learn technology after being reorganized here.Therefore, there are a lot of craftsmen here, and there are also many new craftsmen born, and this can also be said to be the manufacturing base of Daming and the base for the birth of new craftsmen.Therefore, after Zhu Youxiao came to Tianjin City in a carriage, he saw that there were many people in the city, the shops were dense like clouds, and the sound of striking iron and sawing wood continued from outside the city to the city."
Recruitment: two skilled carpenters, one or two or five dollars a month; Accept five apprentices, and pay seven dollars a month. ”At this time, Zhu Youxiao also saw a recruitment notice posted on the notice board on the city wall.Moreover, Zhu Youxiao found that there were many recruitment notices like this in the notice board, which were densely packed with the entire notice board.Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but laugh because of this, he couldn't help but feel the heat of the manufacturing industry in this area more strongly, and he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart."
This area is originally a large amount of saline-alkali land, and the displaced people who gather here can only make a living by pulling fiber, and it is difficult to make good agriculture, but now after using this place as a manufacturing base, it has really made this place prosperous!"
Zhu Youxiao thought to himself because of this.Let Tianjin become a manufacturing base of Daming and even an industrial base in the future, and let Jiangnan become a trade and commercial base, which is Zhu Youxiao's plan for a long time.In this, the reason why Tianjin was chosen by Zhu Youxiao as the future industrial base of the Ming Dynasty is because of the convenient transportation here, which can be transported by water and sea in the future, and there are many displaced people in this area due to the transportation of water, and the key is in the north.Zhu Youxiao did not want the economic gap between the north and the south to be too large, because Jiangnan had naturally become the commercial center and trade center of the world, so he naturally had to place the industrial base in the north, so that a large number of people would be left in the north, especially in the Gyeonggi area.Looking at the spinning machines and looms filled with more than a dozen ships, as well as a number of large warships that are parked in the dock, as well as the wooden lathes, new waterwheels, wheels, glaze, and dougong industrial products that are being pulled to the capital by many horse-drawn carriages, Zhu Youxiao can imagine that if the Ming Dynasty enters a new era of steel and steam in the future, these batches of wooden machinery going north and south will become metal machinery, and then like iron flow, it will flow to the south of the Yangtze River, flow to the capital, and become a new color after the progress of the Ming industry.
