Chapter 90 The Nearly Bankrupt Prairie Economy

Chapter 90 The nearly bankrupt grassland economy

The two jointly submitted a report explaining the situation in Mongolia in the south of the desert, which made Zhu Qizhen happy.

It’s not that they bring good news, on the contrary, they bring bad news.

How bad is this news?

From Duanmurui's memorial, it can be seen that the grassland economy in Mongolia in southern desert has reached the brink of bankruptcy.

To understand this, we must also grasp the overall economic trend in the north and south of the desert.

It can be said that after the demise of the Yuan Dynasty and the loss of the blood-sucking object on the Mongolian grasslands, the entire grassland economy has plummeted and there is no look back.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the output of more than 200,000 stones could be produced. This figure may not be as good as the grain output of some prefectures in the Ming Dynasty, but planting it in the northern part of the Mori can reduce a large amount of freight.

But after decades of war.

All agricultural production in the south and north of the desert was destroyed.

It seems like it hasn't appeared.

In fact, in Daning, Kaiping, and even Dongsheng, the harvest of grain cultivation may not be high, but it is not impossible. However, from the report of the two people.

There is no agricultural foundation in the local area.

This is also expected. Zhu Qizhen is not surprised.

But the following situation surprised Zhu Qizhen.

In Zhu Qizhen's mind, shouldn't the economic pillar of the grassland be animal husbandry? After all, Mongolia is a nomadic people. Isn't this their old job?

But the current situation surprised Zhu Qizhen.

There are tens of thousands of people in Urianha, but there are not many animals, including horses, sheep, cattle and camels. Even according to Duanmurui's calculations, if relief is not provided this winter, a large number of people will starve to death.

Duanmurui was in Kaiping and Dongsheng also saw that the situation was not much different.

In Duanmurui's observation, half of the food sources of Mongolian tribes in the southern desert come from grazing and half from hunting, and the two are almost 50% different.

Zhu Qizhen actually likes hunting very much. Hunting brings excitement and is even better than playing electronic games. It is only when Zhu Qizhen hunts himself that he knows that hunting is actually a matter of little output.

You should know that most primitive people started with hunting and gathering, and then evolved into production methods such as farming and nomadism, because hunting cannot feed more people.

Nearly half of the people in a tribe have to hunt to support them, which shows that the animal husbandry level of the three tribes of Urianha has dropped to a point.

In order to provide disaster relief, Zhu Qizhen even distributed a large amount of grain from Jingcang to the south of the desert, which was also a huge expense.

Zhu Qizhen, who had been through tightly, was very happy at this moment.

Because the situation of the three guards of Urianha confirmed Zhu Qizhen’s guess. The news collected by Duanmurui from many places even hints a little bit.

That is, the Watstra economy is almost bankrupt.

That’s right, the grassland in Mobei is good, but the grassland in Monan is no longer bad?

Urianha is so good that the situation of tile thorns is better than Urianha?

After many battles, Zhu Qizhen made him grit his teeth and hold on. Is there a lot of people in the thorns?

Now it's not.

Washiyesen's situation is even worse than that of Zhu Qizhen. Zhu Qizhen saw the information returned from the Jinyi Guard, which said that Yesen was hunting throughout the autumn.

Zhu Qizhen thought he had just organized his troops and prepared to take revenge.

After all, for nomadic peoples, hunting itself can be regarded as military training, but now it seems that it is not the case. It is also first to solve the thorn food crisis.

In this way, the weakness of the thorns was presented to Zhu Qizhen. Even some information that Zhu Qizhen had not noticed before was listed one by one by one.

That is, the Ming Dynasty and the thorns are under the same sky.

When the Ming Dynasty encountered disasters, was it peaceful on the grassland?

However, Mongolia's way of fighting disasters was different from that of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty naturally tried its best to rescue disasters and would rather empty the national treasury, but Mongolia was willing to kill others and compete for the remaining food.

After fourteen years of Zhengtong, there were many civil strife on the grassland.

Now that I think about it, it may not be that I cut off trade. The continuous natural disasters have intensified internal conflicts.

Zhu Qizhen's thoughts came to his mind, that was, the tile thorns could be cut.

Zhu Qizhen felt a discount as others said before. He never dared to believe in a minister completely. But what he dug out himself at this moment naturally made him believe more.

Just for this conclusion, Zhu Qizhen was willing to pay a lot of food.

Zhu Qizhen reviewed: "Disaster relief grain should be shipped immediately, and it should be based on the promotion of silage." Then he looked at the ticket proposal given by the cabinet.

However, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue jointly transported the goods and went out of the customs along the road. After leaving the customs, the border troops escorted them, which contained approximately 200,000 stones of food.

Zhu Qizhen thought about it and changed the plan to change it, saying: "When you should show it to others, you should change 200,000 stones of grain to 300,000 stones of grain."

Zhu Qizhen is not a poor person. The formation of Hebei's grain-producing area has greatly helped Zhu Qizhen. At least during wars, Zhu Qizhen lacks mainly money, not food.

Therefore, it was not stressful for Jingcang to draw out 300,000 shi of grain. The amount of old grain he released is more than 300,000 shi of grain, and the only thing that makes people worry is transportation.

The road can only pass through the border, and there has not been a time to cultivate to Daning.

Maybe the freight is much better than the food transported.

This is also impossible.

Zhu Qizhen secretly put the matter of using Chidao to contact the grassland on the agenda, but this was also a matter after the war. After all, before the war ended, the Ming Dynasty did not have the money to build Chidao.

Zhu Qizhen continued to turn over again. Zhu Qizhen didn't look at some memorials carefully. It was probably for treating peace, verdict, and some for asking for food.

These cabinets have been approved.

Please rest assured, Zhu Qizhen would write a sentence or two if he had the heart, and if he had no heart, he would click a red dot, indicating that he had read it, and only the judgment was made. Zhu Qizhen would not look at the case carefully.

It’s not that Zhu Qizhen does not pay attention to human life, but that all the death penalty is subject to Zhu Qizhen’s goujue, but before being sent to the Qianqing Palace, these cases have gone through many hands.

I dare not say that there is no wrong. Even if it is wrong, it is a collusion between the upper and lower levels, perfect.

Zhu Qizhen could not see it in just a little time.

Moreover, Zhu Qizhen is not an official who solves the case. If there is a problem with the Ministry of Justice, what should the Censorate do? If there is a problem with the Censorate, what should the Jinyiwei do? If there is a problem with the Jinyiwei, what should the Dongchang do?

These cases have been passed on by these departments.

Zhu Qizhen naturally won’t waste time.

But soon, there was a memorial that made Zhu Qizhen angry, and it was from Guangxi.

Han Yong and Liu Pu attacked each other.

It is mainly about the quelling of the Datengxia chaos.

Liu Pu reported that he would surround him and then send someone to seek pacification, or ask chieftain soldiers to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress him. In short, he had a sentence that he tried every means to hide and did not say anything.

That is, he doesn't want to enter the mountain.

As for Han Yong's meaning, it was that Guangxi had been rebelling for a long time, and the bandits had the intention of being lighter than the court. They thought that it was a natural barrier in the mountains, so they became more and more rampant, and they were siegeless and besieged the county town. Without thunder, they were not enough to shock the little ones, so they should send large troops, recruit chieftains, and enter the mountains to encircle and suppress them.

To be honest, Zhu Qizhen is far away in Beijing, and his intelligence on Guangxi is also some information about local officials and Jinyiwei. Zhu Qizhen is not sure who is right and who is wrong.

However, he was angry about two things.

Han Yong has already governed Guangdong and Guangxi, and Liu Pu is about to obey orders.

Secondly, the current situation is caused by Liu Pu's fear of entering the mountain.

This can be said from others, but Zhu Qizhen does not want to say it from Liu Pu.

It is becoming more and more doubtful about what the Southern Vatican has become.

Zhu Qizhen scolded Liu Pu in the imperial criticism and ordered Liu Pu to return to Beijing, and asked Tian Zhen to take control of Guangxi instead of Liu Pu, so that he could obey Han Yong's orders.

As for the memorials against Han Yong, he was also scolded, so that he could be familiar with the people's conditions and specialized in suppressing bandits.

However, Zhu Qizhen was dissatisfied with Han Yong's control of Liu Pu. Zhu Qizhen naturally knew that civil and military officials were now standing together in the Ming Dynasty, and he was in a state of running side by side.

Therefore, conflicts between civil and military officials also secretly arise.

The conflict between Liu Pu and Han Yong seems to be a disagreement, but I don’t know what is behind it.

However, Liu Pu has never been able to wipe out, which has made Zhu Qizhen lose his patience. Moreover, Han Yong performed well in Jiangxi disaster relief, so Zhu Qizhen was willing to give him a chance.
