Chapter four hundred and thirty fifth test
Heaven moves forever, and will not survive for Yao or die for Jie.
Of course, I won't wait for anyone.
The ninth year of Wanli, which arrived as scheduled, was moving forward. On this day, the emperor announced through telegram that the plan for the Empire in the world had become a definite rule. There is no doubt that this is an excellent means to increase the emperor's prestige.
This year, the emperor still started with "I am Yijun" and announced to the world that the Sanfan County Prince of Shanxi entered India, and set the renovation road from Tianjin to Qingshankou as a national policy. He ordered the provinces to issue 30% of the iron tickets to merchants, military and civilians to issue additional iron tickets to merchants, military and civilians, and transported 400 iron ships along the coast. The iron ingots of the provinces were purchased and sent to Beiyang at a price of 5% higher than the market price.
At the beginning of the year, Mr. Zhang once again wanted to return power to the emperor. Unfortunately, in the emperor's eagerness, this request was once again rejected by Empress Dowager Li.
However, the empress dowager soon reaped the consequences - she believed in Buddhism and wanted to use her private wealth to build a temple in the Forbidden City to worship Buddha statues, but was refuted by Zhang Ge Lao and took the money cleanly.
Shuntian Prefecture has gained its benefits, with two more Queen Mother Bridges. Three Shanxi prefectures have to be added to the examination method this year.
In the end, 17,300 taels were left. The middle-aged man from Feng Bao was sent to Guangzhou Prefecture to buy arrows, armor, canned food and grass, and sent to Bangladesh by boat in the name of the Queen Mother.
It's true that the emperor was very happy to see this result. According to the palace servants who inspected the Qianqing Palace at night in the Forbidden City, they had always seen candlelight in the shadows of doors and windows at night, and the quilts kept moving, and a low voice came from the palace.
Of course, the child always had his mother, and Emperor Wanli could not stand his mother's grievance. After going to Kunning Palace to have a chat with the Empress Dowager, in January of the ninth year of Wanli, the emperor decided to invest in three temples in Bangladesh, Myanmar and Siam in the name of the Empress Dowager, and appointed monks from Shaolin Temple to manage on their behalf, and asked to send 70% of the income back to the Kunning Palace every year.
The emperor said: "Don't worry, when this investment has enough money to build a temple in the palace, the child will be in charge of the government. At that time, he will definitely build a beautiful Big Buddha Temple in Kunning Palace, so that Feng Daban can recite scriptures to you every day. He is good at doing this."
Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory has also faced new challenges. Kiln Factory, known as the Hongwu Official Kiln, always faces new challenges.
When Chengzu was in Jingming, they wanted to create bright red, sweet and white dragon-patterned porcelain according to the story of the emperor's red battle robe and frosting flowers; Emperor Xuande grasped the quality of the kilns, killed the supervising pottery officials, and crushed the remaining defective products, which also made the official kiln porcelain exquisite and beautiful; Emperor Chenghua liked art, which also directly affected the production of imperial kilns, and fired Doucai that combined high-temperature underglaze color and low-temperature overglaze color.
In the Wanli period, the emperor wanted both quality quantity and to ensure the supply of increasingly prosperous overseas trade with an extremely large quantity.
In the ninth year of Wanli, the Imperial Kiln Factory introduced twelve A-type Huode Star Lords, which changed the manufacturing of porcelain, the grinding of clay, and the production of ceramics, all of which were handed over to the machine to completely change the law of not having both quality and quantity.
In fact, discovering Europe was a very terrifying thing for the Ming Dynasty. It was not the discovery of a few missionaries coming over to force their hometown to "there has been no war for eight hundred years, and every family has never closed their doors at night." It was the discovery of the Ming army of the Eastern Military Palace and merchants who really landed in Europe during the Wanli period.
All kinds of rumors spread as wounded veterans and merchants from the East China returned to China. Euroi didn't know what toothpaste and toothbrush was. Every household was poor and didn't even have the habit of eating with plates. They cooked old vegetable soup in a pot for half a month. The English called it raining and it raining, "Rain, dog, cat", because the roofs of poor houses were full of grass, bugs, mice, cats and dogs, and the grass slipped down when it rained.
It is impossible to prevent mice and bed bugs from falling off the roof, so there is a canopy bed, a bed with columns on the top of the bed sheets.
How terrifying?
These news that were brought back by veterans and sailors were filled with unparalleled prejudice to the general perception of Europa by the Ming people.
The merchants and veterans brought back legends of yearning for wealth and honor, but in the ninth year of Wanli, the recruitment of the Beiyang Military Administration did not go smoothly. Especially in Shanxi, the military administration originally planned to recruit five Shanxi soldiers from the Ministry of Households. As a result, a large province recruited only twenty-seven people, including fourteen veterans who escaped from the Wei.
For no other reason, there was only one prince left in the Three Feudals of Shanxi, and all the farmlands were taken to the court. The number of land was still cleared from the Jinyiwei and the local government. From last autumn to this spring, there was still no clear result. However, just by reporting the progress to the court, the Jinyiwei had cleared 240,000 hectares of cultivated land.
According to the report of the Jinyi Commander of the Dynasty, the amount of the empire's farmland that added one-thirty to the empire was only half of their work in cleaning... Maybe not even half of it.
This means that there are four million acres of land in Shanxi Province waiting to be cultivated. The cabinet gave the important task to the Shanxi Provincial Administration and local prefects this year to allocate these good land from Wangzhuang to the people. Zhang Juzhengding's rules were also strict. A proletarian household was only allowed to divide it into 100 acres. Just finding 240,000 proletarian households was enough to make a headache. The emperor also assigned Jinyi to command the dynasty supervision - that was the father-in-law, especially when his son-in-law was the emperor in charge of military power, he was not afraid of anyone.
The prefects in various places were speechless. A rider from the dynasty ran a hundred miles north, and the land of the mansion was controlled by the military. The Beiyang army armed to the teeth of the Beiyang army to suppress the place was useless, and it had an overflowing deterrent effect on any class.
The Beiyang Military Prefecture cannot recruit soldiers in Shanxi, which indirectly proves that Shanxi officials have done this very well. The people don’t even want to be soldiers and are just waiting to allocate land.
When your vision crosses the ocean and turns to Colombia on the southeastern border of the empire?
The situation is not easy.
Although Lautaro had been on the rise for more than a year, his troops still did not have the ability to fight head-on with the Spanish mixed-race garrison. The Spanish Peru Governor still nominally ruled the land, but under the guerrilla warfare, the front line was indeed expanded.
At the beginning of this year, 460 indigenous heads from various villages under Lautaro rushed to Jinshan Valley to receive support from the guerrilla general Lin Xiao, the general of the guerrilla army of the East Yang Army, sent a support from the fuse bird guns, lead blocks, tin turtles, gunpowder and various agricultural tools. At the same time, he also received the calendar of the ninth year of Wanli and the latest instructions from the East Yang Army to the Lautaro Uprising Army.
This instruction is related to the examination method, from farming, weaving, weaving, mining, and other village government affairs to further driving Spain to Peru’s military goals.
The way to achieve this goal is to implement the heads of the villages in Colombia with only one vicious order: kill an enemy every month.
