I am the king of the dead

It's a pity that Zhu Yuanzhang at this time has no energy to deal with such trivial matters.

After all, the prince Zhu Biao is dead, how to make Zhu Yunqi ascend the throne smoothly and securely, is Zhu Yuanzhang's top priority.

It's a pity that Zhu Yunqi held a huge advantage, and was beaten by the Yan family to the end of "Feng Tianjing is difficult".

This is the ending that Zhu Qiyu absolutely can't play on the chessboard without using Xing'an.

But Zhu Yunqi sent it out abruptly.

"Shandong Mizhou Private City, you Minggongs, have you never heard of it?" Zhu Qiyu knocked on the table and talked about the second matter.

The scale of the Bosi private market in Mizhou City must be extremely large, otherwise it would be impossible for Zhu Qiyu, the emperor who is on the verge of death, to know about it.

Among the courtiers, this is probably an open secret.

Yu Qian shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I sincerely don't know."

Wang Wen also said with a clear conscience: "Your Majesty, I don't know."

Yu Qian and Wang Wen have been governors for more than ten years, but they have not governors in Shandong, and most of them are governors in Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan and other places.

But what about others?

Zhu Qiyu looked at Hu Wei, Wang Zhi, Yu Shiyue, Jin Lian, and Shi Pu.

Shi Pu bowed his head and said, "I sincerely don't know."

The Ministry of Industry is the end of the Six Ministries. Shi Pu's previous status was to compete with the relatives of the ministers for the right to build the Emperor's Mausoleum.

Wang Zhi sighed and said: "I have heard about it a little bit, but I don't know the details. There was a letter at home about trade, and I really don't know anything about it."

Wang Zhi's activities in Beijing should be provided by the clan, and Zhu Qiyu knows this matter very well.

Jin Lian bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, when I was in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, I heard about it a little bit, but I don't know that it has become so big. Afterwards, I went to fight with the army in Fujian. I don't know much about it."

Jin Lian was telling the truth. He had never served in Shandong, and his family background was ordinary. His father and grandfather were ordinary people. He wanted to participate in this kind of business, but no one took him with him.

Hu Yi looked left and right, after washing the floor for His Majesty for so long, it was finally his turn to wash the floor for himself.

But at this time, Hu Wei was seriously thinking about it and didn't say a word.

He didn't know whether His Majesty planned to use this matter to attack him, or if he said that the matter was not deep, he could be forgiven.

He took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I have received Japanese silver, which is less than 1000 taels."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, looked at Hu Yan and said seriously: "Are those sent to the inner warehouse?"

When Hu Wei heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. His Majesty did not ask him to dismiss get out of class through the private market of Mizhou City, but wanted to know the details of the matter.

Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne and amnesty the world. The purpose of this amnesty is to adjust some people. After the new dynasty and the new atmosphere, after the new dynasty is elegant, they still do not stop. Naturally, they have to strike hard.

At that time, Zhu Qizhen took the lead in making a fortune, and even asked his eunuchs to sell fire feathers and other things outside the Great Wall.

Under such an atmosphere, you let Hu Wei or any official in the court be alone?

Not everyone is Yu Qian, even the emperor's Longevity Day does not bring a congratulatory form or a congratulatory gift.

Zhu Qiyu didn't intend to turn over the old score, but was just asking Hu Wei what was going on.

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of surveying and cooperating ships, such a large city shipping department was established in Mizhou, and there are more than a hundred ships passing by every day.

Hu Mei said very seriously: "Actually, think about it carefully, this incident started in the fifth year of Yongle, when the Sanbao eunuch returned to the Western Seas, captured the pirate Chen Zuyi, and brought the envoys of various countries to Nanjing."

"But they brought back boatloads of spices and other things. These spices and overseas treasures are quite popular."

"Wang Ning, the prince's son-in-law, once wrote a letter to ask the minister's relatives to participate in maritime trade operations, etc., but they were not approved."

"Then Wang Ning, the captain-in-law, was imprisoned because he privately built sea ships, sailed to Japan, North Korea and other places, sold them, and was reported by the king of North Korea. That's why he was convicted and sent to prison by Emperor Taizong."

"Wang Ning has two sons, the second son Wang Zhenqing, who is old with Uncle Huichang Sun Zhong, and Liu Pu, known as the ten sons of Jinyang, who are good at Gong Poetry, and are now doing pen correction at Changzhou Poetry Club."

Hu Wei probably sorted out the relationship briefly.

Zhu Qiyu was stunned and said, "But the Changzhou Poetry Club where Xin Guogong Tang and his great-grandson Tang Yinji belong?"

As a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, Chen Xun nodded and said, "Your Majesty is the same as the Changzhou Poetry Club."

Zhu Qiyu had an impression of Tang He, because Tang He wrote a letter to Zhu Yuanzhang who was in Huangjue Temple at that time, asking him to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty together.

Tang He's great-grandson Tang Yinji married his daughter to Sun Zhong's grandson Sun Lian as his successor.

It all came together at once.

Zhu Qiyu nodded, it was nothing more than a myth of getting rich.

Behind all the myths of getting rich, isn't this layer upon layer of unreasonable and unclear relationship network?

Once figured out, it is actually not difficult to understand who they are cheering for.

It doesn't matter whether it is Jinyang Ten Sons or Fengyang Poetry Society's fourteen pens are correct, they will speak for whomever they are attached to.

Renters are always like this, tightly knit together.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "I decided to send Tianzi Tiqi to Mizhou day and night to investigate in detail the affairs of Mizhou's private market. However, according to the inspection of the department in Shandong, we must appoint a capable official."

This Mizhou shipping company has been operating for more than ten years, and its interests are huge and difficult to cut.

Moreover, it is not easy to thoroughly investigate and deal with the matter involving foreign relatives.

Li Binyan looked left and right and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you let me go?"

Wang Wen kept saying that it was a perfect opportunity for Li Binyan to go out to practice and practice. Li Binyan saw that no one wanted to offend anyone, so he had no choice but to stand up.

The impeachment of Prince Consort Zhao Hui, His Majesty's aunt, was the one who made the basket at the end of the year. Seeing that the basket was getting bigger and bigger, he had to go by himself.

Now that this case is mixed with Jingcha's Zhao Jin case, it is getting more and more complicated, and the water is getting deeper and deeper, so naturally he has to go.

In fact, Wang Wen was not willing to let Li Binyan go. The water in Shandong was too deep, and Li Binyan was too straightforward. If he went there, he was afraid of accidents, such as a fire at the post station, robbery by bandits, accidental overturning, falling into the water, and unacceptable water and soil.

Yu Qian has been the governor of the region as the right servant of the Ministry of War since the third year of Zhengtong, and Yu Qian is very familiar with local affairs.

Yu Qian sat up straight and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think it's difficult to deal with the Mizhou Bureau of Shipping."

Some things can't be weighed, they don't weigh four or two, but once they are on the scale, they can't weigh a thousand catties.

Isn't it a private market when the Mizhou Shipping Department is set up privately when the upper and lower levels are corrupted?Problems can be big or small, big things can be turned into small things, and small things can be turned into small things. At most, there will be three glasses of fine wine.

But since the trouble has reached the court discussion, this matter is regarded as the top.

It is not difficult to find out that Mizhou Shipping Department is privately established.

Yu Qian continued: "But Shandong's procuratorate has been corrupted to the brim. Li Binyan was born in an admonition platform, and he can reorganize the Shandong procuratorate when he comes to Shandong."

"Government of officials is the first to govern the constitution. Since Your Majesty wants to deal with the matter of constitution, Li Binyan just went to try it."

Yu Qian thinks this is a good opportunity, and thinks that Li Binyan's self-recommendation is also very courageous. This trip to Shandong is mainly to rebuild Shandong's procuratorate.

If the inspector is dead, Shandong's officials will never get better.

As for the Mizhou Shipping Department, I am afraid that after receiving the news, I will start to pack up my clothes and prepare to run away.

Zhu Qiyu looked left and right, nodded and said: "Li Yushi, don't disappoint my expectations, you hang on to the right servant of the Ministry of Officials and go to Shandong."

The Right Minister of the Ministry of Officials is the third rank, but according to the rank of the outsider, he will be automatically reduced by one level. In fact, Li Binyan is only from the third rank.

"The minister will not disappoint the holy family." Li Binyan accepted the order.

The court discussion was still going on, Zhu Qiyu continued: "Xia Qing, has the new horse policy of Taipu Temple come out?"

Taifu Temple Secretary Xia Heng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it's done."

He divided the several memorials in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the new horse policy of the Taipu Temple is in three directions, and go hand in hand."

"The first priority is that the Huma should not be used for a long time and cannot be used as a reliance. Otherwise, the northern captives will use it as a heavy burden, and instead let the imperial court use troops to constrain it everywhere. The minister thought that he would set up two military horse farms in Hetao and Shunshengchuan to select and breed good breeds."

"According to the law of finance and economics mentioned by His Majesty, the minister will approve the monthly salary of the horseman by four times the required amount. This is not a fixed policy, and it will be supplemented according to the investigation."

Zhu Qiyu looked at the memorial letter, that after the spring plowing, Daming would launch an attack on Jining, recover Jining, build a city, restore the old guard during the Hongwu period, and strengthen control over the Hetao area.

In terms of arrangement, Xia Heng actually closely followed His Majesty's angle, and did not consider what to do if Jining could not be defeated at all.

Xia Heng continued: "The second is naturally the Xuanfu Gongshi. I have also drawn up a process to rectify the Xuanfu private market, merge the horse market into the Gongshi, determine the age of the horses, and convert the horse price into silver."

Contour article, Xia Heng's various systems in this mutual market are not bad, and they are all three-rank officials, and their abilities are extremely strong.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the system of Gongshi, shook his head and said: "Why does Taipu Temple use salt, grain, ironware, tea and other things to barter? Why not use silver coins?"

Daming minted 38 silver coins a month. As Zhu Qiyu increased his labor remuneration and gave the Bingzhan Bureau a miracle card, the speed of minting silver coins this month is accelerating.

Daming hugged him up and down, 30 years later, while asking His Majesty to pay back the money owed in the past, he could not owe money to the world.

Xia Heng said in a daze: "But the silver coins are not enough in the country. If you use them for the horse market, what will Daming use?"

Zhu Qiyu sighed, he knew it was so.

He said helplessly: "The Tatars and Wuliangha people also use silver coins to buy what they need in Gongshi. My Daming is rich in products, and the silver coins can flow back when they go out."

"Do as I said, use silver coins as the medium of exchange, and let them take the silver coins to the tribute city to buy what they need."

"We must strictly control the flow of firearms, steel feathers, etc. to the grassland."

The use of minting power to cut leeks is a new proposition for the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty. After all, even officials of the Ming Dynasty minted money, which is tantamount to fiction.

Chapter 236 I Can't Eat the Means of Going Around

Most of the official minted money of Ming Dynasty, Hongwu Tongbao was used for tribute trade, most of Yongle Tongbao was used for sea trade, and the official minted money of Ming Dynasty was lost overseas, which is also the same old tune.

Zhu Qiyu didn't intend to turn the Tingyi into a salt and iron meeting, and the Tingyi is the place where government orders are formulated.

Moreover, it is very difficult for these Minggongs to understand how to collect taxes overseas through the right to mint coins. This is not a one-off thing.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "Silver coins can't be eaten or drunk, and they can't be lit for heating to keep out the cold. The grassland is barren. They must take the coins to Daming to buy their daily necessities."

"If the Taijis from Wala, Tatar, and Wuliangha are willing to collect coins, and the silver coins they exchanged for livestock and horses are piled up in their stables like mountains, their people will starve to death and freeze to death! "

"They killed themselves!"

"Why bother to drive thousands of miles in the capital camp of the Ming Dynasty?"

Many courtiers were stunned for a long time, His Majesty said what if, but this kind of thing is really possible...

Xia Heng said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I don't think it's impossible. If these prairie auspicious people are willing to collect coins, the people in the prairie will definitely live in dire straits."

Zhu Qiyu knocked on the table and said: "Impossible. If they collect coins and don't go to Gongshi to change salt, grain, iron, tea, etc., how will their people eat? How will they drink? The people are living in dire straits, and the people are in dire straits. The soldiers will arrive tomorrow." Grassland, how do they deal with it?"

"This kind of self-mutilation, Oara and the Tartars, are they so stupid?"

"We should not destroy the enemy and put our hope on the enemy's stupidity. This is an extremely dangerous idea!"

It is expected that the enemy's Congkuan has been the highest instruction for all military operations since Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, attacking Wala, he even included the ending of "Tianzi Beishou" in it.

Yu Qian bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

This is a road issue. To eliminate the enemy, it should be Da Ming who fully recovered, punched out with a punch, and smashed the Oirats for five or sixty years.

It is cowardice to not place hope in the folly of the enemy.

Upon hearing this, the officials immediately bowed their heads and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Yu Qian sat up straight and said: "Actually, Your Majesty...they will really do this, as His Majesty said, it's such a stupid thing to cut off your hands and feet, and more than once."

"During the Yongle period, Emperor Taizongwen cast Yongle Tongbao. The Taijimen lived strangely with coins. On the grasslands, the people were in dire straits. Several tribes belonged to the Ming Dynasty. The Wuliangha tribe split from the Tatar part at that time and became the Ming Dynasty. lackey."

Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a while and said: "Do they care about the lives of the common people?"

Yu Qian nodded and said: "On the day of Gengyin in July of the 16th year of Yongle, Emperor Taizong Wen issued an imperial edict to teach Wala, Tatar, Wulianghabu Taiji, and the way to calm the people."

"Therefore, the lack of grassland clothing, the destruction of raw pots, and all kinds of methods to mend the leaks, as a last resort, to store water and cook meat with skins were not the only reasons for the Ming Dynasty's conquest."

Yu Qian talked about the old things. When discussing the Oirat issue before, Yu Qian said many times that he has many ways to kill the Oirats, at least nine!

But that requires His Majesty's support.

Military failure will inevitably lead to political failure. For example, the royal court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty went to the emperor's throne and reclaimed the Khan, and the renaming of Mongolia was a political failure.

Military failure will also inevitably lead to economic failure. If you can't fight again and again, the Ming Dynasty is not a leek, the Oirat people are carnivores, their own people are flying, and the tossing people are struggling to survive.

Even Zhu Di couldn't stand it anymore, and angrily ordered them to go up to the sky, full of complaints.

Zhu Qiyu suddenly discovered that he just wanted to make the mutual market more transparent, and inadvertently, it became another angry government order.

Meat eaters are contemptible, since ancient times.

Xia Heng couldn't make up his mind, and said in a daze: "Your Majesty, is it still calculated in silver coins, or in grain, salt, iron and other things?"

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said calmly, "Silver coins."
