My history chat group

Ming Wang Wang Yu raised his glass again: "Done this glass of wine!"

...

After lunch, Wang Yu privately wrote to Zhu Yuanzhang in the history chat group: "Ming Taizu, I have told your four sons that they are ready, you can take them back."

Soon, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang replied: "I also know that I am very grateful to the host for taking care of them these days."

"Easy to say, easy to say." Wang Yu simply replied.

Not long after, the four brothers Zhu Biao, Zhu Xiao, Zhu Fei, and Zhu Di disappeared, and were summoned by Zhu Yuanzhang with the "designated teleportation symbol".

Although they left the world of the Huaxia Empire, they had no effect on Wang Yu and the others.

In the afternoon, King Wang Yu of Ming Dynasty held a cabinet meeting according to the plan.

The seven cabinet ministers: Zhang Liang from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Zhuge Liang from the Household Department, Chen Que from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Wen Zhongrui from the Ministry of War, Yu Xuezhen from the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, Zeng Hui from the Ministry of Industry, and Tang Jin from the Imperial Court’s Zuodu Yushi. Huadian waited for a long time.

"The King Daming is here!"

Wang An's voice was loud.

"Meet King Daming!"

Seven cabinet ministers salute.

Daming Wang Wang Yu stood on a high place, looked around at the crowd, and said, "All sit down and talk."

Wei Dong stood straight at the bottom left, guarding the safety of Ming Wang Wang Yu at any time.

Seven cabinet ministers were seated.

Ming Wang Wang Yu also took the seat, looked up at the seven, and said, "Today, there are three things under discussion."

"First, spring plowing!"

"Second, war!"

"Third, comfort the people!"

Three urgent matters need to be dealt with, seven cabinet ministers have already known in advance.

Ming Wang Wang Yu continued: "Spring plowing is the top priority, regarding the future stability of the Chinese Empire. This year's spring plowing is still to vigorously promote the cultivation of corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes.

Last year, the planting was mainly promoted in Shuntianfu, Shandong, and Shanqian and Henan areas, with good results.

This year, it must be fully promoted in Shuntian Mansion, Shanqian, Shanqian, Shandong and Henan.Some places are very suitable for corn, sweet potato, and potato planting and can be enforced.

In addition, the war against the Nanming court is believed to end soon.We need to be prepared to restore the farmland that was deserted due to the war at any time..."

In this era, many people still cannot accept large amounts of corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes.Asking the people to give up or reduce the planting of millet, chestnut and rice on a large scale will encounter difficulties.

However, in order to deal with the disasters brought about by the Little Ice Age in the long run, some necessary forcible measures are inevitable.

...

Chapter 126: The Nightmare of the Scholars of the Imperial Academy

Following the words of King Wang Yu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhuge Liang, Shangshu of the Household Department, said: "Shuntian Mansion, Shandong, Shanqian, Shanqian, Henan and other places have prepared enough corn, sweet potatoes, potato seeds and many agricultural tools.

There is no war in these places, the people basically have farmland, and the hearts of the people have settled down.As long as local officials put it into practice, I believe it will not be difficult to promote the cultivation of corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes."

With that, he looked at the Zuo Du Yushi Tang Jin of the Metropolitan Procuratorate: "The King Daming, the minister suggested that the Metropolitan Procuratorate should cooperate with spring ploughing and supervise local officials.

At the same time, the Ministry of Households should also use spring plowing to promote corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes as an evaluation item for the performance of local officials.Those who do well will be rewarded, otherwise, they will be punished."

On the one hand, the procuratorate supervises, on the other hand, this matter is included in the official performance evaluation.

Two-pronged approach!

King Wang Yu of the Ming Dynasty nodded, and said to the Zuodu Yushi Tang Jin and the official Shangshu Zhang Liang of the Supervisory Office: "Kong Ming is considerate, and the Supervisory Office and the official department should come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible.

"Yes!"

Zhang Liang and Tang Jin responded.

Spring plowing and the promotion of corn, sweet potato, and potato planting are mainly carried out by the Ministry of Households, with the cooperation of other ministries.

"Kong Ming, keep talking."

King Daming looked at Zhuge Liang and said.

Zhuge Liang paused and continued: "Spring ploughing is indispensable for the guarantee of water conservancy. The minister has already learned from Master Shangshu Zeng of the Ministry of Industry that water conservancy in various places needs to be repaired because of the war.

At present, in Shuntianfu, Shandong, Shanqian, Henan and other places, the original water conservancy has basically been restored.However, large-scale water conservancy repairs will take time...

Therefore, the minister believes that whether it is to repair the original water conservancy or build water conservancy, we need to continue to increase investment..."

As soon as Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Zeng Hui, the minister of the Ministry of Engineering, stood up and saluted: "The King Daming, in recent years, droughts and floods have continued, coupled with wars, many dams along the Yellow River need to be repaired. Therefore, it takes time and a lot of manpower and financial resources. .

At present, although there are enough manpower for food-for-work.But during the spring plowing period, I am afraid that there will be fewer people.Until the summer rainy season arrives, it is a critical period for the repair of water conservancy in various places..."

In a word: want people, want money!

During the spring plowing period, all of them went home to plant the land, and even if the work-for-relief was used, the manpower available was very limited.

In addition, the Huaxia Empire dealt with the three-way war at the same time, even with Zhu Yuanzhang's help, but the financial resources were stretched, so the Ministry of Engineering's funds were not sufficient.

How can I do things without money?!

During the spring ploughing period, forced conquest of hard labor is not worth the gain and cannot be done.

Can only think of another way.

Fighting is playing money!

Ming Wang Wang Yu has a deep understanding now.

This is a difficult problem. Wang Yu frowned and pondered for a moment. There was still no good solution. He said helplessly: "For money, the Ministry of Households should think about ways. For the Ministry of Industry, we should also think more and use the least financial resources to do the most. thing.

Well, that's all for spring plowing.Next, talk about the latest war."

Zhuge Liang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, and Zeng Hui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, could only feel bitter.

Wang Yu changed the subject, looked at Wen Zhongrui, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and asked, "The Ministry of War, have you received the latest war report?"

Under normal circumstances, the battle report will be sent to the Ministry of War, and then the Ministry of War will report to the Cabinet, which is reporting to King Wang Yu of Ming Dynasty.

"Report to King Daming, there is no latest battle report. But counting the time, if it goes well, General Wu's war against the Nanming court will soon have a result."
