Chapter 715: The Locations Of The State Governors In Four Years Are All Port States [Please Subscrib
Seeing that none of his sons said that they wanted to withdraw from the competition for the throne of emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite satisfied with this.
Not to mention other aspects, at least I can endure hardship, have perseverance and resilience!!!
It’s his Lao Zhu’s seed!!!
Then Zhu Yuanzhang took out a small box that was familiar to the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, and said at the same time:
"There are also six states here, which we carefully selected from hundreds of states across the country. Basically, the population, land area, taxation, etc. of each state are generally on the same level."
"Come on, come up in order and randomly select a state that you will be responsible for governing for the next four years."
As the saying goes, once born, twice cooked.
Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes did not hesitate, and started to smoke one after another from the eldest to the youngest.
After the last King of Qi, Zhu Bo, had finished drawing, Zhu Yuanzhang directly threw the small box in his hand aside and said:
"Open it and let us see where you have drawn!!!"
Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes opened the small paper balls in their hands one after another, and each of them muttered:
"Songjiang Prefecture, Qinghua Prefecture!!!"
“Guangzhou Prefecture, Guangsha Prefecture!!!”
“Yongping Mansion, Yongping Prefecture!!!”
“Ningbo Prefecture, Mingzhou!!!”
"Laizhou Prefecture, Net!!!"
“Dengzhoufu, Dengzhou!!!”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and recorded the places where Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes were drawn. Then he swept his eyes across the crowd and said:
"You have all visited Haizhou City and learned about it, and you all spoke eloquently about it."
"If you want to make the people safe, you must first make the workers work." What's the point of educating people with morality?
"This time, let's see if you can do as beautifully as you say!!!"
"Because of our full support, Mr. Yan was able to start from scratch so quickly, and it took only one year to establish the current four major bases in Haizhou City.
"Our support for you will definitely not be as strong as our support for Mr. Yan."
"But similarly, our requirements for you will not be so harsh."
"The various craftsmen currently in the four major bases of Haizhou City, including the current Haizhou City Navy."
"We will divide it into seven parts, one part will be kept in Haizhou City, and the other six parts will be given to you six people.
"What we ask of you is that within your four-year term as governor, you can recreate the four major bases of Haizhou City from scratch."
"Four years from now, your respective prefectures must be able to produce at least hundreds of millions of kilograms of sea salt and salted fish meat annually."
"At the same time, the naval ships under your respective governorships will exceed a thousand, and the number of naval officers will exceed 200,000!"
Having said this, Zhu Yuanzhang paused and added again:
"In addition, you each know the salaries, wages, and salaries of the navy and other kings under the command of the state."
"In addition to the first year being borne by the imperial court, the salaries, wages, and salaries for the second, third, and fourth years will also be borne by your respective governors.
Hearing this, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes could not help but twitch their lips.
The requirements given to them by their father cannot be said to be particularly difficult.
After all, they have all been to Haizhou City and have an in-depth understanding of all aspects of Haizhou City.
So for them, it is equivalent to giving them a template answer like Haizhou City and then asking them to build their own "Suizhou Territory" based on the template answer according to local conditions.
.
As long as they know how to "adapt measures to local conditions", the "Haizhou City" they build in the end will basically not be any worse.
Furthermore, Mr. Yan built Haizhou City in one year, but their father only asked them to build their own "Haizhou City" within four years.
In terms of time, it is also relatively abundant.
But even so, their father's requirements for them cannot be said to be particularly simple.
Also because they have an in-depth understanding of all aspects of Haizhou City, they naturally know how much time and resources it will take to build ten of the four major production bases in Haizhou City.
Mr. Yan has the support of all other human and material resources besides direct money from their father.
However, they only have one-seventh of the current craftsman manpower of the four major bases in Haizhou City, and one-seventh of the naval officer manpower resources of the Ming Navy as support.
The level of resource support between the two is not even the same as that of heaven or earth, but it is also very different.
Furthermore, their father asked them to build a replica of Haizhou City within four years.
In other words, within four years, they have to increase one-seventh of their craftsmen and one-seventh of their naval officers by seven times, reaching the original number of craftsmen in Haizhou City. And the number of workers of the Ming Dynasty navy was the same.
Only in this way can it be called a replica of "Haizhou City".
And not only that, even the salaries and wages of the two hundred thousand naval officers will have to be borne by their respective prefects after the second year!!!
When I think about the cost of building a production base, the cost of building ships, the cost of supporting 200,000 Ming Navy soldiers...
Suddenly, the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Feng, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes felt that the financial and economic pressure on all aspects of the prefecture was about to explode even before the official start of governance and construction of their prefecture.
[If I had known that I was in Haizhou City before, I would have had a deeper understanding of how Haizhou City was built from scratch!!!]
[Hey, wait a minute, wasn’t Haizhou City built by Mr. Yan and Lao Wu together?!!]
[Lao Wu should be very clear about this process!!!]
【Let’s get together with Lao Wu later!!!】
[Lao Wu/Fifth Brother and I are close brothers, so we need to get together more often!!!]
………………
Thinking of this, the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes all looked at Zhou Wang Zhu Xi with a vague look.
[Strange, why do I feel like someone is talking about me?!!]
King Zhu Zhu of Zhou shivered inexplicably and frowned slightly.
Jin Wang Zhu Fan on the side withdrew his gaze from Zhou Wang Zhu Zhu, then thought about it, looked at his father and asked:
"If this is the case, Zhizhou's profits from sea salt and salted fish meat in the next four years should be temporarily owned by Zhizhou, right?!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Jin Wang Zhu Fan and said directly:
"The next four years will be temporarily owned by each prefecture, and after four years they will be unified under the management of the national court!!!"
"In these four years, the national court will purchase the sea salt and salted fish produced by each prefecture at a unified price, and then give you money or resources!!!"
Although he is stingy, he still understands that if you want to gain something, you must invest first.
The four-year income from the construction process will be used in exchange for a "Haizhou City" that can produce hundreds of millions of sea salt and salted fish meat every year.
No matter how the account is calculated, it is all earned by him. At most, it is just more or less.
If he is not even willing to pay for the four-year income from the construction, then in the end, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes may not be able to build a building with an annual output of hundreds of millions of kilograms because they have no money. The "Haezhou City" of sea salt and salted fish meat.
At that time, he will be at a huge loss.
Hearing the answer from their old man, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If all the profits from the sea salt and salted fish meat produced by Zhizhou in the next four years can be owned by Zhizhou, then the situation will be better [at least Zhizhou's financial and economic pressure will not explode.
However, if the profits from the sea salt and salted fish meat produced by Zhizhou in the next four years are not owned by Zhizhou, all of them need to be turned over to the national treasury.
Then either Zhizhou's financial and economic pressure is about to explode, or he is thinking about making money and his mind is about to explode.
"Dad, are these locations we have as governors suggested by Mr. Yan?!!"
Prince Zhu Biao looked at the location of Zhizhou in his hand, and then at the location of Zhizhou in the hands of other brothers. After thinking for a moment, he asked.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said firmly:
"Yes, he suggested it."
"Nowadays, there is only one sea salt and salted fish meat production base in Haizhou City in Ming Dynasty, which is far from enough to meet the needs of the increasing number of people in Ming Dynasty in the future.
"It just so happens that you have all been to Haizhou City before. Let's see if you can apply what you have learned this time and adapt to local conditions!!!"
The Ming Dynasty only had one sea salt and salted fish production base in Haizhou City, which was definitely not enough.
-------***…….……..
In the next ten to twenty years, the Ming Dynasty will inevitably usher in an era of explosive growth in population due to the abolition of the capitation tax, the abolition of land, potatoes, etc.!
By then, the population of Ming people will increase from at least 60 million now to more than 300 million!!!
Therefore, with such a huge population, more sea salt and salted fish meat production bases will inevitably be needed in the future to produce more sea salt and salted fish meat to meet the needs of more and more people.
Similarly, Ming Dynasty also needs more convenient ports to use sea transportation, shipping, and river transportation to further strengthen the connections between various parts of Ming Dynasty and promote the development of all aspects of Ming Dynasty.
So Yan Changqing directly moved six of the top ten port cities in the country in his previous life.
After all, the top ten port cities in the previous life can be selected as port cities by the country, which has proved the superiority of their respective geographical locations.
Therefore, there is no need for Yan Changqing to do more research and investigation. After directly determining the location, he can let the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Fang, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes do more in-depth development and construction.
Hearing this, King Yan Zhu Di looked puzzled and said:
"If you are just suggesting our next Zhizhou location, then there is no need to avoid us, right?!!"
“This doesn’t seem to be something that cannot be said or heard!!!”
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhu Di angrily and said:
“Of course it’s more than that!!!”
"However, I won't let you know the other content yet!!!"
"After you finish four years of governance and construction of the prefecture, it will be almost time to let you know!!!"
King Qin Zhu Ping frowned slightly and thought:
"In other words, other contents are actually related to our respective governors?!"
However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not give him an answer, and instead said:
"Similarly during this four-year term as magistrate, we will assign each of you a thousand-strong Jinyi Guards and a three-thousand-strong Hundred Battle Imperial Guards.
"These four thousand people, on the one hand, are responsible for protecting your safety, and on the other hand, they are completely obedient to you.
The command.
"No matter what you ask them to do, they will do their best to complete it after ensuring your life safety first.
"However, the food, accommodation, and salary of these four thousand people will also need to be supported by you after you have served as magistrate for half a year.
"In addition, we will also give you the troop deployment orders from the local guards in your respective prefectures."
"With this transfer order, the officers and men of the local guard station under the local magistrate will listen to your orders."
"The total number of soldiers in these guards ranges from 30,000 to 50,000.
"You can do whatever you want to mobilize these local guardsmen. We will not impose any restrictions."'
"After the transfer is completed, just go back and write us an explanation of the transfer."
If it were three years ago, he would have been worried that Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes would be young and impulsive.
So he did some messy things with the troop deployment order he gave, so he just set a restriction that the troop deployment order can only be used once a year at most.
So now, after three years of training in the county, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes who are much more mature and calm than three years ago have been able to make
Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved.
At least Zhu Yuanzhang believed in when to mobilize those local garrison soldiers and when not to mobilize those local garrison soldiers, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di
Wait for the princes to know.
After explaining his requirements and arrangements, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said:
"Okay, get out!!!"
"I will give you half a month. Within half a month, after you have a clear understanding of the general situation of each prefecture, and after you have selected seven subordinate officials who will go to the prefecture with you,
Get out of here and take your new job!!!"
Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes looked at each other [Lailai bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and said:
"Yes, Father!!!"
