Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei

Chapter 614: Intangible moral standard 3000

Beijing.

In the middle of July, the scorching sun was still wanton steaming over this Daheng capital city.

Although the disasters continued in all parts of the world, it obviously did not affect the prosperity of this capital.

The streets are full of traffic, and there is an endless stream of merchants on both sides of the street.

At the city gate, merchants and travelers lined up in long queues to transport goods from the north and south of the river to this capital, which is the center of the world.

"It seems prosperous, but it is like cooking oil on fire..."

The emperor strolled through the tower, looked at the bustling scene inside and outside the city, and sighed.

The two princes Jing, Liao, and the two princes in armor beside the emperor also looked at each other, not knowing what the emperor said.

The emperor did not explain, but the solemnness between his brows added a bit more.

In the past, although the imperial court ruled the world, it was limited to the corrupt ruling system of the former Ming Dynasty, and there was no detailed understanding of the specific situation in each place.

That is, just get by!

At the end of the second year of Zhaowu, the major taxation case that was launched lasted for a whole year and swept the whole world. While the original order was completely destroyed, the reform was carried out. Up to now, the reform has been going on for a year, and the new order , basically has been established.

Under this new order, the imperial court's dominance over various places naturally rose to a brand new state.

What followed was, of course, the entire world, and the specific situation of nearly a thousand counties was clearly placed in front of him, the Son of Heaven.

There is no doubt that even though the original taxation case caused a huge blow to the economy and people's livelihood of the whole world, with the abolition of business registration and the policy encouragement of business, there are still four years of Zhaowu. The various major projects of Daheng, and the massive wealth that the imperial court has invested in the world, is also an unprecedented effort to lift the declining Daheng commercial economy from its trough.

The restrictions on cement have long been lifted, and various dignitaries have entered the market one after another, and private firms are also developing rapidly by taking advantage of the general trend of this era.

Under the deliberate leadership of the Son of Heaven, the business firms headed by the Inner Court, except for grain, iron, salt, and ordnance, which involve the pillar industries of the state, the rest of the industries are also slowly shrinking one after another.

The shrinking of the royal firm and the market left behind were naturally swallowed up by the private firms. With such a multi-pronged approach, the Daheng economy, which was in vain and awaiting development, was naturally slowly recovering.

In addition, such as education pilots and the continued deepening of reform policies, the situation in the world seems to be very good.

But in fact, if you probe deeply, the Daheng world today is already a trend of cooking oil with fire!

The development of commerce has benefited from the imperial court's policy encouragement for commerce, and also benefited from this large-scale disaster relief project.

Assisted by policies and driven by infrastructure to drive commercial development, while providing relief to disaster victims, maintaining stability, preserving land fundamentals, and increasing the royal court's business tax revenue!

This seems to be a good thing to have both.

But there is a fatal flaw in this.

That's the victims!

After nearly a year, the population statistics of Daheng has been completed. Except for the majority of Jiangnan occupied by the pseudo-mind, the population of Daheng is more than 78.95 million.

Today, most of the north is under the influence of natural disasters. The only difference may be whether the natural disaster is serious or not.

The people directly or indirectly affected by natural disasters account for nearly half of the total population of Daheng!

Such a terrifying disaster situation, the reason why Daheng can still stand today is that it has a sound and effective governance system and disaster relief at all costs!

Of course, there is also the most important reform and division of fields!

This is the most important measure for disaster relief and stability.

However, it is also necessary to plant crops when the fields are distributed to households. The less affected areas are fine. The people have fields and hope, and even small-scale disaster relief measures can barely maintain the stability of a place.

However, for the severely affected areas, the land was divided, but it was difficult to plant at all due to years of drought, which means that the responsibility rested entirely on the imperial court.

Up to now, according to the statistics of the Ministry of Industry, there are more than 3.5 million young people participating in projects in various places!

Among them, there are more than one million young people who are in severely affected areas, such as Shaanxi, which has suffered from drought for years, and most of the fields are difficult to grow.

According to the current disaster relief policy formulated by the imperial court, one of the natural disaster relief projects is to maintain stability for the time being.

The second is the large-scale implementation of drought-tolerant crops such as corn and sweet potatoes.

Even if these drought-tolerant crops have limited drought tolerance, it is obvious that if the disaster in one area can be alleviated, at least the stability of the people in one area can be guaranteed.

As for the places that cannot be relieved, it is necessary to rely on the continuous disaster relief projects of the imperial court, or to relocate the people in an orderly manner.

Under such a strategy, it is conceivable how great the pressure of disaster relief is!

Just the more than 3.5 million young people who participated in the project, behind it, there are at least 3 million disaster-stricken families in need of relief, involving at least nearly 10 million people!

According to the court's disaster relief and stability policy, each and every project in this region not only cannot squeeze the people's strength, but also needs to be treated well, and even preferentially treat the young people who participated in the project!

Only in this way can the ultimate goal of maintaining stability be achieved!

Involving more than 3.5 million young adults, according to the current disaster relief policy of the imperial court, it is not only necessary to ensure that the young adults participating in the project can eat enough, but also to leave surplus food to maintain the stability of the millions of families behind them. Leave time for the imperial court to promote drought-tolerant crops on a large scale, or to relocate people in disaster-stricken areas.

It is conceivable that such a powerful disaster relief will consume a terrible amount of money and food!

According to the rough statistics of the Ministry of Households, if we want to continue to maintain this huge project disaster relief strategy, we need to invest 10 million stone of grain in just the fourth year of Zhaowu! Eight million taels of silver!

Of course, according to the calculation of the Ministry of Household, as long as the autumn harvest is reached, the autumn harvests will be successively carried out in various regions where drought-tolerant crops can be grown.

The money that needs to be consumed will also be reduced a lot.

But no matter what, the Son of Heaven knows that this Little Ice Age is far from over, and the disaster has not stopped. That is to say, Daheng will need to maintain a high consumption of disaster relief investment for many years to come!

Only in this heavy natural disaster can we maintain national stability!

Obviously, under such natural disasters, the people at the bottom are always affected.

The upper and middle classes enjoy the commercial dividends brought by the times and eat a lot, but the people at the bottom are still struggling for a bite in the natural disaster!

And if this continues, resources and channels will naturally be monopolized by the middle and upper classes.

After all, so many ordinary people, even to survive, have to rely on the relief of the court, what else?

read? Practice martial arts?

Which one doesn't need financial support?

And the elites at the top will be affected by the disaster? The middle-class landowners and gentry, even if they don't stare at the ground to plan food, they can catch the assets of the family and find another way.

And the people...

According to the emperor's expectation, the common people will be able to gradually become rich if they divide their fields and the agricultural tax is not high. Coupled with the education system he plans to roll out, the people at the bottom will naturally have a way out.

But now, nearly half of the people in Daheng have been affected by the disaster. According to the trend of natural disasters in later generations, there may be more people affected by natural disasters in the future!

The gap between the rich and the poor will only get bigger and bigger, and now, most of Daheng's wealth is related to the powerful, that is to say, a new interest class is slowly taking shape!

But the people at the bottom will only become more and more serious with the influence of natural disasters, and it will be difficult for the poor to produce noble children!

When it is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble child, this new interest class will only become more and more stable, and in the end, the class will be solidified!

Obviously, today's Daheng is prosperous, but it is like... cooking oil on fire! Such as... castles in the sky!

While thinking about it, the dignified color between the emperor's eyebrows became more and more intense.

The ultimate root cause is obviously still above this unstoppable natural disaster!

What he can do is to use all kinds of disaster relief measures as much as possible to reduce the number of people affected by disasters and improve their ability to resist disasters.

Of course, there is also the need to spread the education system!

If the people at the bottom are unable to support a scholar, then the court will help!

Take it from the people, and use it again for the people!

Let the first rich, to drive the latter rich!

It is enough to form a benign and smooth channel, and the solidification of class can also be delineated in a small range.

To do this, the most important thing is the word money and food.

Without enough money, it is inevitable to swallow the disadvantages of this difficult situation!

"Jiangnan..."

The emperor took a deep breath, and this war, which had been prepared for months, came to his mind again.

"From the navy's side, there has been news. Zheng Zhilong has already agreed, and he can help the navy to destroy the fake navy at any time."

The emperor said slowly: "In this battle, Xu Feng, you are the commander, Yan Shun is the deputy commander, and Jiangnan will be pacified!"

"Zhao Wu led the fourth regiment to battalion the Beijing army to Juyongguan. If Lin Danhan goes south, you will lead the army to support and coordinate the battle."

"The end will follow the order!"

The two national horses bowed and bowed before taking orders!

The emperor nodded, turned slowly, looked at the setting sun between the sky, and the voice also sounded faintly: "There are many people with ulterior motives in Jiangnan, it must be cleaned up, and there must be no hidden dangers!"

Hearing these words~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Xu Feng and Zhao Wu couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. The emperor never said such a thing in the taxation case that swept the world!

The emperor didn't seem to notice the change in the expressions of the two, and the voice sounded again: "The big break and the big establishment can make Jiangnan stable!"

"If today's disaster continues and the grand strategy continues, the court cannot devote too much energy to paying attention to Jiangnan. You have to take good care of it!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, you will understand at the end!"

Xu Feng responded immediately, even if he knew that soon, his hands would be stained with boundless blood again, without any hesitation.

The emperor was silent for a moment, and finally, he slowly said: "Be kind to King Shou!"

After speaking, the emperor took a deep breath and waved his hand: "Okay, go down and prepare!"

"This battle has dragged on for too long!"
