Chapter 617 To get rich, build roads first

After looking at Qi Yuanbi, Yu Zigao sneered and said, "Otherwise, you are young and don't know anything. The Japanese pirates were like that, do you think Your Majesty wouldn't mind in his heart?"

"But Your Majesty was not born at that time, right?" Qi Yuanbi said helplessly.

"Who do you think Your Majesty is today?" Yu Zigao snorted coldly and said, "Your Majesty is now a magnificent and stunning emperor. How could such an emperor have no ambitions?"

Whether it was the Japanese pirates during the Jiajing period or the Liaodong battle during the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese state had been fighting, but their national strength was insufficient and they were unable to be destroyed."

"The Ming Dynasty suffered a considerable loss in the battle in North Korea. The ninth generation of revenge can still be restored. Besides, His Majesty is so powerful and stubborn, how could he not avenge this? So this time the attack on Japan is certain, and that is the reason."

Qi Yuanbi curled his lips, feeling that Yu Zigao's words were a bit unreliable.

Because the Battle of Liaodong in Wanli sounded like the Ming Dynasty suffered a little loss and could not even continue to fight. The remaining part of the battle was fought by the Koreans.

But Qi Yuanbi knew that although the Ming Dynasty suffered heavy losses after that war, the Japanese also suffered heavy losses.

After the battle over the years, it can be said that the Japanese and the others were defeated so hard that they were harsh. Now they have no strength at all. Not to mention fighting North Korea, the Japanese pirates have all harsh on the sea.

The powerful pirates in the sea are all from the Ming Dynasty.

The reason why I failed to defeat Japan in Wanli and couldn't hold on in the later period was because of the three-faced battles.

The three major battles of Wanli are not just talk. Of course, from the perspective of the Ming Dynasty, I suffered a loss this time. If you dare to make me suffer such heavy losses, you will inevitably take revenge.

In a word, Japan not only did not surrender, but also dared to resist. Such a person must be killed.

However, after thinking about it, Qi Yuanbi threw away this messy idea.

What does this have to do with yourself?

You know, if the emperor wants to fight a war, he will reuse their Royal Navy, and then the opportunity will come.

If war against Japan this time is launched, it will be countless military achievements.

Thinking of this, it’s hard not to be excited. Qi Yuanbi stood up, rubbed his hands and said with a smile: “Then you need to prepare well.”

"Don't prepare!" Yu Zigao glared at him and said, "You want to tell everyone that you already know Your Majesty's plan, and that was told by your second brother? Do you still want to live? Do you want to bring your second brother with you too?"

"It's not like this to do it for death. We can just understand it ourselves, and don't talk about it everywhere. Just make a little preparation in private. When your Majesty asks about Japan, we should not just ask and be ignorant of it."

"And not only Japan, but North Korea also needs to prepare. If His Majesty wants to grab a rabbit, we must also be prepared. In addition, there are also those red-haired and green-haired and red-eyed on the sea, and they all cleaned up when they look back. They don't like them and snatch all their ships!"

"Well, Uncle Yu, why do I think your behavior is a bit like a pirate?" Qi Yuanbi said helplessly at Yu Zigao.

"That's the sea of ​​the Ming Dynasty!" Yu Zigao snorted coldly and said, "The Ming Dynasty had no choice before. Now with our Royal Navy, how can the sea of ​​the Ming Dynasty allow them to enter freely? Sooner or later, they will be destroyed!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Qi Yuanbi nodded and said, his heartbeat a little fast.

Although he didn't know where Yu Zigao got such a high spirit, Qi Yuanbi also understood that if he really fought, the Royal Navy of the Ming Dynasty would definitely become the most enviable army in the Ming Dynasty.

Who doesn’t like to fight and grab things?

Make both wealth and achieve meritorious service.

"Okay, go back and rest." Yu Zigao waved his hand and was about to drive out people.

Of course, this is just a saying. After sending someone away, he must study it carefully. Not to mention that there are any great achievements, but he must be familiar with it tonight.

"Okay, then I'll leave." Qi Yuanbi agreed, stood up and walked out.

I was still a little tired tonight, so I went back to rest and go to bed early.

After seeing Qi Yuanbi away, Yu Zigao also returned to the room and started to study.

The next morning, the sky gradually became brighter and Zhu Youxiao got up.

He stepped out of the room and took his men along the coastline of the naval base, and finally found a better cliff to watch the sunrise.

Thinking about the sleep last night, Zhu Youxiao smiled on his face.

Is this considered a night in a military port?

Unfortunately, no one can sing one.

After looking at Qi Yuangong standing behind him, Zhu Youxiao asked with a smile: "Have you met your brother yesterday?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Qi Yuangong said with a smile: "I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

After waved his hand, Zhu Youxiao said indifferently: "You three brothers are all serving me, and they can also be said to be loyal. I can't bear to see you all the way to each other. If you don't let you meet and chat at this time, it means I'm not very kind."

"Reply to Your Majesty, this is all your duty. What's more, Your Majesty has the kindness of knowing us three brothers, and we are all your respect and support now and today. We will be repaid for our death."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "The words are getting better and better. These are what you deserve. Things are done well, and you three brothers are all very good. Didn't your brother say anything to you last night?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, I've said it." Qi Yuangong's expression did not change at all, and he said in a plain tone: "They seem to be a little tired."

"What does it mean?" After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao frowned and his face sank and asked, "What are they tired of?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, my brother said that they are practicing here every day and have already practiced their skills well. Your Majesty gave the navy such a good ship and such good equipment, but they cannot fight like their own troops in Liaodong. Whether it is for the generals or the soldiers under them, they feel a little guilty. And it is a bit discouraging to do so year after year and day after year, and they cannot fight."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, his expression relaxed, and said, "It's just right, the morale is available. This time, let them do their best and have the opportunity to make contributions."

"Yes, Your Majesty. I told my brother this way. Your Majesty is wise and powerful, so he should not make random guesses." Qi Yuangong said hurriedly.

"Very good, very good!" Zhu Youxiao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile.

"But there is one thing I still want to talk to Your Majesty." Qi Yuangong looked at Zhu Youxiao and said carefully: "They would make some fish on weekdays, which can be regarded as a tooth sacrificial sacrifice. But I don't know how the Office of the Interior learned about this. People from the Office of the Interior came here to ask them to help fish and then transport it to the capital to sell. It is said that they can make a lot of profit."

"But the Royal Navy refused, saying that they were Royal Navy, how could they go fishing? The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs said they would ask for the report."

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao frowned, turned to look at Wei Chao and asked, "Is there anything wrong? Did the Silijian receive the report? Why didn't it be delivered?"

After hearing this, Wei Chao quickly took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have not received any report. However, I have heard of this matter. There was indeed such a thing in the Ministry of Internal Affairs a few days ago."

"What's the result?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Chao and asked.

"It is said that it was proposed by a manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and this person is quite talented. However, this matter was not approved within the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was rejected directly. The manager has now been sent to Liaodong to collect the wool."

Zhu Youxiao nodded.

The Office of the Internal Affairs Office is very responsible for these things. This person is not responsible for the facts. He dares to stretch out his hands, but he even dares to reach the Royal Navy.

However, now people have been sent to the grassland to collect wool, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has dealt with it, so I will not interfere.

After thinking about it, Wei Chao said: "Although his plan was denied, the Ministry of Internal Affairs felt that this matter was very promising. It not only allowed people in the capital to eat fresh fish, but also made a lot of money; it could not only feed the people along the coast, but also feed people who were trafficking along the way."

The logistics of the Ming Dynasty is very developed now, and there are many post stations in various places. Many local officials have begun to ask for imperial edicts from the court, saying that they need to build straight cement roads. As long as the court allows them, the money will not be paid by the court, and local gentry will raise money to repair them.

In this era, these rich people still have the habit of repairing bridges and roads for local areas. On the one hand, they have a good reputation and on the other hand, they are also a affordable thing. Therefore, local gentry are also very active in this matter.

In addition, the freight sales in the Ming Dynasty are very developed now, and localities want to get a share of the pie through this matter, so that they can make money.

Many places have already shouted slogans, "If you want to be rich, build roads first!"

In such a situation, how could they not be moved?

Most local officials love to do things like road construction. Not only can they have reputation and achievements, but they can also benefit. There are many things that can be operated here, and maybe they can make a fortune.

Therefore, local officials are very active, which shows how developed the freight was in the Ming Dynasty. Logistics alone supported many people.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has received an imperial edict to expand employment and to compete with landlords for tenants, so naturally we must find solutions from this aspect.

So the fishery transportation plan was turned out.

It can promote employment for coastal people and promote the development of the transportation industry. This is a good thing.

So they wanted to do something.
