In the 27th year of Zhenyuan, a political inquiry was also held.
However, we went not to the southeast, but to the northeast, which is Anxi.
Now is the twenty-eighth year of Zhenyuan, and another political inquiry has begun, so naturally we have to go to Anbei.
But now Daqian has established several docks.
Then the inspection of Daqian Port must not be delayed any longer.
Therefore, it is natural to postpone the government consultation in Anbei next year. This year, we will go to the Andong Protectorate, and then transfer to inspect several major ports in Daqian.
This undoubtedly brought great pressure to the entire land of Anton, and also brought some turmoil.
After all, the prestige of Daqian's supervising prince is unparalleled.
Even though it was not he who conquered the land of Anton, but King Yan Xiao Zheng, His Highness the King of Yan is now subordinate to the prince.
The key is that although the prince of the prison country did not conquer Bei Yan, he defeated Meng Yuan!
in the hearts of the people.
The Daqian Forbidden Army is an army more powerful than Yanyun's Sixteenth Cavalry.
The fiery July has arrived, and the heat waves in Guanzhong are coming.
As usual, the prince Xiao Yi brought the East Palace Guards, the prince concubine Yang Yuhuan, the emperor's grandson Xiao Yan, etc., and accompanied more than 3,000 people in a mighty march to the northeast.
We took the main road from the capital to the Andong Protectorate, which was almost completed. It passed the most prefectures and cities along the way. It really directly connected the north and the south, which was more important than the Grand Canal.
Back to the present, Xiao Yi, the prince of the prison country, arrived at Baoding Pass.
First, a grand sacrificial event was held.
To commemorate the heroic souls of Daqian who have guarded here for generations, and also to commemorate the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the conquest of Beiyan.
Similarly, it is also to appease the hearts of Yanyun's sixteen knights and soldiers who are now scattered everywhere.
After that, we went to the largest pier in Daqian.
That is the Bohai Terminal.
This pier can directly reach Korea, and then from Korea to Japan. It is an important route.
However, Prince Xiao Yi looked at the mountains of wood piled up for the relatively large frame, and couldn't help but said: "This inland river terminal is nothing more than seawater. The sea water corrodes the wood far more than the river water. How many years can the built terminal be used? Who knows?" Can you tell me?"
The minister of the Ministry of Industry, who had tanned a shade, hurried over and said: "So that His Highness knows, I have consulted my colleagues in the Quanzhou and Suzhou Shipping Departments. All the wood used is iron power collected from Guangdong and Guangxi." Wood is highly wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, termite-resistant, and not easily deformed. The Quanzhou Pier was built from this, and it is still strong today."
The Southeast has actually been going to sea for a long time. After the establishment of Daqian, Japan also sent envoys, and some merchants from the Southeast also went to sea to do business in Japan.
After all, the bigger the storm, the more money you make.
Therefore, docks appeared in Quanzhou very early, but the scale was relatively small at that time.
It is far from the current scale.
After all, the long river of history has reached here, and private and semi-official maritime transport operations have reached the pinnacle of the past dynasties, creating countless wealthy families. However, due to geographical limitations, most of these people are in Yangzhou, Hangzhou, Quanzhou and other places.
As for Daqian's plan to build a port in the north, although they have absolutely no courage to organize or sabotage it, they still have non-violent non-cooperation when it comes to their own interests.
Fortunately, there are still imperial merchants in the court.
As soon as the imperial businessman takes action, he will know whether there is any.
With the imperial court at his back, and his biggest backer being the current Crown Prince, he can give the green light all the way.
How many southeastern merchants unconsciously turned to the imperial merchants.
And after the Southeast Questioning Politics.
Even Shen Wansan, a wealthy man in the southeast, became an imperial merchant and fell in love with the Crown Prince.
All of a sudden.
The southeast side was completely in internal confrontation, and some who resisted were immediately isolated, and thus began to be unable to keep up with the rhythm.
After all.
The development of business can never be separated from the support and assistance of the imperial court.
When they arrived in Yanjing, according to the instructions of His Highness the Crown Prince, the pigs were fattened and slaughtered. The scholars, peasants, industrialists and merchants of the Andong Protectorate could have a meal with the current Prince Supervisor, the recognized leader of ZTE, although they were said to be at separate tables. Food, but enough for them to go home and brag about for a lifetime, oh no, three lifetimes.
Therefore, when Prince Xiao Yi entered the hall, everyone who attended the banquet quickly saluted and turned their eyes furtively, but no one dared to take a glance at him.
This is the prince of the country. In the feudal monarchy era, he was the prince who brought the whole country out of the chaos like the 23rd year of Zhenyuan. It is enough to make these people with no political status tremble and wait carefully.
This was the prince overseeing the kingdom of the Celestial Empire, but he single-handedly pacified the barbarians and established the great cadre of the unified world.
This was the prince who pioneered maritime trade, taught the heliocentric theory and the spherical shape of the continent, and allowed Daqian maritime merchants to reach the Western Ocean and see countries such as Tianzhu and Dashi, and realized the unification of the country.
If we really wanted to talk about the great achievements of the Prince Supervisor, I would probably not be able to finish them all tonight.
Of course, Prince Xiao Yi didn't care what they thought. He sat down and said, "It's also my first time here in Anton. I don't know much about the customs here. Today, it's just a simple banquet, and the guests are Representatives of celebrities from all walks of life, including scholars, peasants, and businessmen, are just like the Southeast Political Consultants and Anxi Political Consultants. They just want to know how the people's lives are like under the rule of Da Qian."
"You don't have to have any scruples. You can say whatever you want. If you have some secrets that are really not convenient for you to tell in public, you can leave a secret book afterwards so that you can read it."
At the banquet, everyone looked at each other. Some people were eager to try, but could not muster the courage. At this time, the importance of child care came to light.
"Reporting to Your Highness, little man..."
This is the person Murong Xueyuan found.
He was specially selected, and what he said did not make everyone present panic, but he did not really introduce the customs and customs of the land of Anton. What he said was quite to the point, and it was a good start.
Xiao Yi also listened attentively, and after finishing, he also gave a reply.
"Gu Ye knows that the human heart is made of flesh, so it naturally has seven emotions and six desires. There are more than 20 million people in Daqian. It is impossible for everyone to pursue the same thing."
"But I believe that everyone's greatest pursuit must be one, and that is to live and work in peace and contentment."
"As for the need to live and work in peace and contentment, there are many explanations."
"Businessmen hope to live a rich and prosperous life. As the saying goes, poverty limits imagination. Naturally, some people cannot imagine the life of rich people."
"It can't be said that there is really anything wrong with the way they live. As long as it does not violate the laws of Daqian, there is nothing wrong with it."
"Their money is not brought by strong winds, but wealth created by their own hands."
“From a foot trader, to one shop, to two or three shops, and then slowly to more shops.”
"This is the wealth they created by relying on their own abilities, and it is reasonable and legal income."
"I also paid the commercial tax in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court. This commercial tax will be used in the imperial government's work-for-relief program. In fact, it can be regarded as doing a good deed."
“In business, there are people who come from nothing to something, and there are people who come from nothing to something and then to nothing.”
"We cannot think that just because they are rich, their money was obtained through illegal means and was made with evil intentions."
"You must believe in today's official government, believe in the Yushitai, believe in the royal guards, and believe in the official department. These government agencies have always had zero tolerance for corrupt officials and corruption and bending the law!"
This is to eliminate the contradiction first. Even if it cannot be eliminated, it must be alleviated.
Everyone has a hatred of the rich.
But we cannot allow this mentality to amplify indefinitely.
Otherwise, conflicts will inevitably amplify indefinitely and become uncontrollable factors, causing turmoil.
The Crown Prince rectified the name of the merchants, which naturally won unanimous applause from the merchants and gained a lot of public support.
Likewise, his explanation also appeased those who had no money.
It also illustrates a truth.
Reasonable and legal income.
