The prosperity of the wool textile industry has promoted market growth and made many people see the benefits.
Wool from Suiyuan and Chahar can barely supply the entire city of Beijing, which is far from enough for the vast north.
Therefore, people with a long-term vision have begun to raise sheep on a large scale to obtain the needed wool.
The common people like the warmth of wool, and for the army, a large amount of wool is no less than life-saving armor for soldiers.
The reason why Xuanzhen sent troops to inspect Hanhot was because of the popularization of wool lining, so that the soldiers were no longer afraid of the severe cold and could fight on the grassland.
In a sense, wool is a strategic material.
If we follow thousands of years of tradition, the imperial court will vigorously encourage people to raise sheep at this time, thereby controlling the interests of wool and intercepting wool from the root.
Zhu Yixi would not use such crude methods.
He only did two things. One was to lower the wool tariff to the lowest level, that is, a tax of fifteen to one.
The second is to let out a large number of sheep to flood the market.
Tax cuts mean increased profits.
Herding sheep is the determination of those businessmen who are passionate and unconditional.
As for ordinary people, the risk of raising sheep is too great, and it is not suitable for ordinary people who are poor and have nothing to do at present.
And, to be honest, Mongolian wool is short and thick, so it can only be said to be make do, and the most suitable wool still needs to be cultivated.
The vast grasslands in the Northeast are the most suitable place for grazing sheep.
With the prosperity of ZTE machines, there were more than 10,000 ZTE machines in the entire city of Beijing, and many of them moved to Tianjin to obtain cotton nearby.
The textile industry is showing a prosperous appearance.
Affected by this, people are willing to buy a winter coat in winter, while the prices of ordinary fabrics have been greatly reduced.
The original scene of men farming and women weaving was broken.
However, with the activation of the commodity economy since the late Ming Dynasty, moral ethics have further deteriorated, and rules have been trampled step by step.
The social trend of commodity economy that worships money and wealth has swept across, prompting a large number of women to leave their homes and join the textile industry.
Strolling on the street, Zhu Yixi was dressed in white and looked like an ordinary scholar, but his handsome face and fair face still gave him away.
After successfully becoming the Chief of Ceremonies and the Chief of the Eunuch, Tian Ren became more and more attentive, half a step behind the emperor, with respect written all over his face.
With the smooth flow of sea transportation, products from Lingnan and other places, such as agate, ivory, tortoiseshell, coral, pearls and other luxury goods, have gradually taken their place.
There are very few products from the West, only clocks and oil paintings, which are considered best-sellers.
Oil paintings, in particular, are extremely realistic and the female characters are so beautiful that some people want to collect them and appreciate them.
At a casual glance, there is an old saying: "There is a lot of life in the market."
Yuquan Town is just a consumer town that sprang up due to the arrival of Yu Jia.
Everything needs to be transported from outside, including food, so it can be said to be an extremely special town.
Hundreds of officials, maids and eunuchs, as well as a large number of imperial soldiers and horses, jointly promoted the prosperity of this place.
When the emperor no longer wants to come, this town will disappear.
"When the Holy Spirit arrives, the market will naturally come alive."
Tian Ren said with a smile.
Zhu Yixi smiled without saying anything.
It is also a consumer town, with an extremely large number of ready-made clothing stores, no less than a hundred.
After walking around, I didn't encounter anything outrageous, let alone a hero saving a beauty.
Zhu Yixi suddenly felt bored.
Immediately, he stepped into a courtyard.
As soon as they reached the door, the sharp-eyed nurse ran over and opened the back door like a dog-leg.
After crossing the threshold, before anyone arrived, a series of crisp laughter could be heard.
Like a wind chime, it tickles the heartstrings and makes people inexplicably happy.
Unconsciously, my steps became much faster.
Taking a closer look, I saw a child over one or two years old, with a small body, big eyes, and staggering steps, running happily on the ground.
The maids who seduced him carefully guarded him for fear that he would fall.
"Dad--" However, he seemed to notice it. He turned around and saw a familiar figure. He immediately swung his little butt, opened his arms, and ran over happily.
"Oh, my son runs so fast."
Looking at the smiling little cub in front of her, Zhu Yixi felt happy, picked it up and nibbled its tender face.
It made him giggle non-stop.
Not far away, a woman with a mature aura all over her body looked at the heartwarming scene between father and son, her eyes full of tenderness.
Who would have thought that a few years ago, she was still a heroic female general who dared to fight and kill?
Gao Guiying also didn't expect that she would become like this.
Inexplicably, she became a man's prisoner. The more she struggled on the bed, the happier she became. As a result, she became pregnant in ten months and gave birth to a son.
In the past two years, she had received favors one after another, but when the news of Li Zicheng's death came and she finally breathed a sigh of relief, the man suddenly lost interest and only came to see his son every now and then.
My husband is dead, but you behave yourself.
"My son is so good."
Zhu Yixi doted on his son who was living outside the palace. In other words, he doted on his son who was outside the palace.
In the palace, as the emperor, he cannot express his emotions casually, especially when people inside and outside are watching him.
Once he is too kind to a certain prince, he may have unnecessary thoughts and even misunderstand the foreign ministers.
Therefore, the emperor can pamper his daughter as much as he wants, but he can only keep a distance from the prince.
This is the sadness of being an emperor.
"You're back."
Gao Guiying came up to him with a faint smile, focusing all his attention on his son.
"kindness!"
It’s hard to say that she loves the new and dislikes the old, but towards Gao Guiying, Zhu Yixi only feels like a relative, and most of the love between men and women has disappeared.
Men, all like 18 years old.
What's more, Gao Guiying changed a lot after becoming pregnant and giving birth, and it was difficult to arouse his interest.
"Don't be too doting on Yu'er. You must know that a loving mother often loses her son."
Zhu Yixi advised.
"He doesn't have any inheritance, he just wants to be safe. Even if he is a prodigal son, after all, I don't dare to be too active with you..."
Gao Guiying said calmly.
"If you read and be literate, you will have a bright future. It is much more interesting than fighting for power."
Zhu Yixi shook her head, put her son on her knees, and let him pull her clothes:
"I also have arrangements for Yu'er."
As soon as these words came out, Gao Guiying's face was full of vigilance, and then her eyes were full of pleading.
"Where did you think you were going?"
Zhu Yixi shook his head and reassured: "Gao Yigong is now an earl and will soon be promoted to a marquis, but he has no heirs, so we can't waste it."
