Chapter 257 Grandson played too much(2/2)
Zhu Yunxi said directly: "The imperial navy's large ships are naturally used by the guards. But I heard that there are countless maritime merchants in Fujian, Zhejiang, and even Guangdong who build large ships to transport goods and goods to sea.
And this is the good thing that Gu has sent to all of your uncles this time. This time the court only needs to decide on the military strategy for the southern expedition. The army will capture, in addition to the part that will be returned to the court, I am afraid there will be a harvest that will shock all of your uncles.
I hope that your uncles can purchase and build large ships in Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and other places as soon as possible for the purpose of transporting trophies after the war. In the future, they can also be used by various companies to transport products from southern Xinjiang and other places to the sky."
Zhu Yunxi has already planned to hand over the big business of shipping to these Ming Dynasty noble generals present.
In fact, the imperial court could naturally absorb this huge profit, but this would affect the Ming Dynasty's process of building giant ocean warships.
Mobilizing these noble generals, who can be said to have died with the Ming Dynasty, to take on the development of maritime transportation, you can also use inducements to encourage and attract the gentry and merchants in the Ming Dynasty to take the initiative to pay attention to maritime transportation and let them go out.
The praise for the half of Jiangnan in southern Xinjiang is not an exaggeration by Zhu Yunxi, but a real fact.
When he thought of the fertile land in the Mekong River Plain, Zhu Yunxi wished he could bring the Ming army to defeat it now.
Only by allowing the people of the Ming Dynasty to truly realize the value of that land can these vested interests in the Ming Dynasty be allowed to go out, instead of shrinking back in the Central Plains all day long.
In the end, most of the little land in the Central Plains was concentrated in the hands of a few people.
Then as long as there is a natural or man-made disaster, the Central Plains will be in chaos, with refugees and rebels everywhere.
Stabilizing the political situation in the Central Plains and replenishing the Central Plains by absorbing blood from abroad is the only answer Zhu Yunxi can think of to solve the cyclical law of the country.
As for liberating the labor force and improving productivity?
How can industrial development be accomplished overnight?
In comparison, Zhu Yunxi always believes that it is easier to go out and grab resources.
The future enemies of the Central Plains have been proven by facts for everyone in the world to see.
In the Governor's Mansion, dozens of meritorious generals present were pondering over the Emperor's grandson's remarks.
Even though they are talented and reckless men in the military formation, as long as they think about it slowly, they will eventually figure out something different.
After Zhang Wen, the Marquis of Huining, thought clearly, he immediately turned to look at the founding Duke Chang Sheng, who was sitting at the top of his right hand.
Then, it was a man named Hou Bo who had made great achievements and turned his attention to Chang Sheng.
Chang Sheng had no choice but to raise his hands and said: "Your Highness, according to His Majesty's wishes, from now on, the shipping matters in southern Xinjiang will be entrusted to the family of Chen and others to manage?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled: "You are Gu's uncle, I am Gu's uncle family, Gu trusts you the most!"
In his own plan to expand the territory, he still hopes that these people in front of him will not give them enough benefits, and these people will only be entangled in the Central Plains.
As for going out to exploit?
What does Zhu Yunxi have to do with him?
Seeing Zhu Yunxi admit it personally, everyone's expressions couldn't help but relax, and wisps of expectations gradually ignited in their hearts.

If there really is half of the Central Plains in the south, and if the shipping is really handed over to these meritorious generals like them, they will be willing to send all their grown-up children there to fight!
After all, they are all working for their own families.
Chang Sheng, however, did not relent, but continued to ask: "Then for this military campaign in southern Xinjiang, I'm afraid Your Highness will have to use sea transportation. In this case, what else does Your Highness need me to do."
This is not the time to hide.
Zhu Yunxi said bluntly: "If the military strategy in southern Xinjiang is decided this time, I hope that the merchants of each family can provide the army with some of the food, grass, herbs and other supplies for the soldiers to go south. Every time the army gains something, it is also necessary for the merchants of each family to respond and sell it.
, Convert money and food."
I heard Taisun mention the business affairs.
Except for Chang Sheng, everyone present silently lowered their heads or looked away.
Zhu Yunxi smiled: "I never meant to blame you uncles. To support a big family, you always need more money and food. The skills of merchants are not such a humble thing. Now that Zhejiang Road is undergoing restructuring, merchants pay heavy taxes. This will
It is a contribution to the court, and the court sees it."
After hearing what Taisun said, everyone thought about it again and felt that Taisun was not telling lies.
In the past, the imperial court did not collect much commercial tax, so it did not matter if the merchants were of low status. Now Zhejiang Road imposes heavy taxes on merchants. This is the contribution of merchants to the imperial court.
How can anyone who has contributed to the country be called humble?
However, Cao Zhen muttered: "But it is true that there are no merchants in my family... Then wouldn't I be at a disadvantage..."
Hearing what this idiot said, there was a burst of suppressed laughter in the Governor's Mansion.
Zhu Yunxi also rolled his eyes: "The imperial court has set the rules, and the people will naturally take action after hearing the news. Is Marquis Jingchuan still afraid that no merchants will volunteer to work under Cao Mansion?"
"Ah?"
Cao Zhen opened his mouth and looked confused.
Zhu Yunxi smiled helplessly, waved his sleeves and walked down from the main seat, and came to Chang Sheng: "Uncle, among the imperial guards, we can start to select soldiers from the south as much as possible. We should also prepare more firearms. Longjiang Shipyard and Navy
I have to pass the order to you."
Chang Sheng nodded and said in a low voice: "This time, Your Highness wants the soldiers of the Jingwei Southern Expedition to go south by sea?"
Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "The secret guards discovered that there is a copper mine in Qiongzhou Prefecture. If the imperial court wants to plan for southern Xinjiang, it can build a military strategy with Qiongzhou Prefecture as the core. Officers and soldiers can land at Lianzhou Prefecture from the sea and go from the south of Zhenzhou.
We will attack Annan at the Guan Pass. We will divide our troops at sea and directly attack the hinterland and coast of Annan."
"Is there a copper mine in Qiongzhou Prefecture?" Chang Sheng was shocked once again, which could make him, the grandson of the emperor who oversees the Ming Dynasty, use the words "to the sky" to describe it.
Chang Sheng could no longer imagine how rich the copper mine in Qiongzhou Prefecture was.
Zhu Yunxi smiled: "Even if not, we still have to rely on sea transportation to navigate southern Xinjiang, and Qiongzhou Prefecture cannot get around it anyway."
This is natural, after all, Qiongzhou and Annan are only separated by a certain distance of sea.
Chang Sheng also had a calculation in his mind, and he cupped his hands and said: "I will live up to His Highness's expectations."
Zhu Yunxi agreed and said in an even lower voice: "The Xiping Hou Mansion will be a partial force, but the main force of Zhennanguan and Haihai needs a capable commander. My uncle can think of someone who is qualified to serve."

Chang Sheng raised his head and looked at his nephew who was blinking in front of him.
He couldn't help but smile helplessly: "Your Highness, do you hope that I will serve as the commander-in-chief of this military campaign in southern Xinjiang?"
Zhu Yunxi said in a deep voice: "My uncle and grandpa went to the northwest to quell the rebellion, Song Guogong and others are in the north again, and now even Cao Guogong is in the Japanese state to command the army to suppress the Japanese. The Zhongshan kings are still young and not capable of commanding the army. Wei Guogong is one
The same is true for the relationship. Mr. Tang Li from the Xinguo family is now in Zhejiang. After all, my nephew thinks it’s time for his uncle to take action."
The military strategy of southern Xinjiang is now heading towards a national war and opening up half of the Central Plains.
Chang Sheng also knew that the younger generation lacked experience and could not afford such a large-scale battle.
If it were just a few battles, those meritorious generals and disciples in the imperial court would be enough to take on the responsibility, but now after all calculations, I am really the only one who is the most suitable.
But Chang Sheng looked at the smiling Zhu Yunxi in front of him with doubtful eyes, and suddenly said quietly: "Your Highness, do you also want to go to southern Xinjiang?"
Zhu Yunxi immediately shook his head: "Everything is decided by the Holy Spirit, and my nephew has never been in battle. I'm afraid that if he does, he will cause trouble."
Chang Sheng smiled.
Bow and clasp your fists.
"I respectfully send my grandson off."
