Huang Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart. He wanted to choose Xi'an, but that was the home of King Qin.
In the Ming Dynasty, the Shaanxi Chief Executive's Office had a vast territory and was the first Chief Executive's Office in the Ming Dynasty! It governs eight prefectures and 117 states! Gansu and Ningxia are included in it, and its huge area can be imagined!
Originally, there were seven vassal kings here, namely.
King Qing (Ningxia, Shaanxi), King Qin (Xi'an), King Su (Ganzhou), King Han (Pingliang, Shaanxi)!
King An (the country was eliminated without heirs), King Zheng (moved to Henan in the year of Zhengtong), and King Rui (moved to vassal in the seventh year of Tianqi two years later, and was the fifth son of Shenzong.)
Now that there are four major vassal kings, Yansui Town is located in a place that is not directly connected to the major vassal kings. This can reduce the situation of confronting the vassal kings from the beginning!
The choice of this place really made Huang Xiao think hard!
This is one reason. In addition, this place borders Mizhi County, Yan'an Prefecture. The distance is only about 160 miles. There are Lao Li and Lao Zhang here, two figures who ruined the Ming Dynasty. Huang Xiao feels that it is necessary to make arrangements in advance!
In addition, the drought in these places is also the most severe. Huang Xiao can send people there to alleviate the local situation.
Of course, it was not convenient for Huang Xiao to talk to Zhu Youxiao about these situations.
He smiled and said: "There are several advantages to choosing here! First, it is connected to all Mongolian tribes. Our people can carry out trade with various Mongolian tribes with gold and silver and get a large amount of cattle from them. Sheep and wool.
We can also provide the various Mongolian ministries with the iron pots, salt, tea and other materials they need. This will quickly stabilize the border, save a lot of military pay for the court, earn a lot of money, and let the Mongolians work for us. Used!
Our gold and silver can be used to purchase food from the nearby vassals, provide relief to the people on the spot, build farms, and turn this place into another Dahuang Village in the northwest! And the radiation from this will definitely produce an extremely sensational effect!
In addition, the coal and iron resources here are extremely rich. We can set up a steel factory there, and the smelted steel can be directly exchanged with various Mongolian ethnic groups for cattle and sheep.
At the same time, we will build a large number of textile factories locally to use our advanced textile technology to spin the worthless wool of all Mongolian ethnic groups into high-end cold-resistant woolen clothing. This will kill two birds with one stone..."
Huang Xiao broke it down with Zhu Youxiao one by one on how to carry out mutual trade, how to make all Mongolian ethnic groups willingly turn enemies into friends and gradually integrate, how to build the local area, how to coordinate the relationship between vassals, etc. Explained once!
I could only hear Zhang Yan and Zhu Youxiao praising it!
"It's really amazing. If this can be done, our northwest land will be as solid as a rock! Brother Yu's talents once again surprised Brother Yu! This is a hundred times better than the cabinet's proposal to purchase grains from Huguang and transport them there for relief! Brother Yu, please pay close attention to this matter I fully support the plan!”
Huang Xiaodao: "We just need to wait for the new soldiers to be trained, and when the time comes, we can send troops and horses to implement it!"
He sneered and laughed: "Taking over Yansui Town, does the eldest brother think that an imperial edict can be done? How can those generals of the guards be willing to give up the fat in their mouths? There are bound to be some twists and turns, and they may have to kill a lot of them. Got it!"
Zhu Youxiao snorted coldly and said: "What my dear brother said is absolutely true, just like Tianjin Wei Liu Ping's work, he will create a bright future! My dear brother, just go ahead and do it, no matter who dares to stop it, but It’s okay to kill!”
As he spoke, he smiled at Huang Xiao and said, "Brother Yu can guess a little bit of Brother Xian's thoughts. How about I tell it to Brother Yu and listen to it?"
Huang Xiao was startled and said, "Okay, I'm all ears."
Zhu Youxiao said: "Xiandi chose this place to avoid the feudal king, right?"
Huang Xiao was startled and looked at Zhu Youxiao.
Zhu Youxiao laughed and said, "As expected!"
Huang Xiao praised: "I really can't tell. Brother has such a unique vision. It's really unexpected!"
Zhu Youxiao smiled proudly, then said with a straight face: "Brother Xian, Brother Yu just said that he would give his full support, and he will definitely support it to the end. What are you working so hard for? For my Ming Dynasty, for There are thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty, so what if they are vassal kings, just do what you should do as a good brother, there is no need to worry so much!"
Huang Xiao was moved again and said: "Thank you for your support, brother! However, although I have concerns, I don't have to embarrass the vassal kings. If I can bring them over and get involved, I will give priority to this aspect. , this is also trying to preserve the affection of the eldest brother’s clan!”
Zhu Youxiao thanked: "Thank you dear brother for thinking about me!"
Huang Xiaodao: "If we can't live in peace and we have to die, then I can only put the common people of the world and the Ming Dynasty first! The process of reform is so bloody. Since the eldest brother knows it, I won't Say more."
Zhu Youxiao nodded.
Personal eunuch Wang Guotai walked in.
"Your Majesty, the Holy Lady is here to say hello."
"Xuan." Zhu Youxiao said.
Huang Xiao turned around and met Zhang Yan's eyes.
Zhang Yan's eyes were filled with worry and a hint of disgust.
"See Your Majesty, Queen."
"I've met the Marquis."
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "Madam, you don't have to be polite. Is there something wrong?"
Keshi smiled and said, "I heard that the emperor had a headache, so I specially made a dose of lotus seed soup to soothe the nerves. Now that I see the emperor talking and laughing happily, I feel relieved!"
She said and asked the eunuch to bring a bowl of lotus seed soup.
Zhu Youxiao was moved and said: "My wet nurse treats me just like my own mother..."
He said as he took a spoon to drink.
Huang Xiao suddenly said: "Your Majesty's head ailment is not suitable for drinking lotus seed soup."
Zhu Youxiao was stunned for a moment, then put down the spoon and looked at Huang Xiao doubtfully.
Huang Xiao smiled and said: "It's so delicious, why don't you give it to my wife to drink? The lotus seed soup nourishes yin and nourishes the skin. My wife will definitely be more radiant after using it."
Zhu Youxiao's face looked a little ugly.
He soon felt from Huang Xiao's words that Huang Xiao suspected that the Hakka family would be detrimental to him.
Although Huang Xiao had good intentions, his suspicion of his wet nurse still made Zhu Youxiao feel a little uncomfortable.
"It doesn't matter! I'll just use it less."
Keshi sneered in her heart, but there was a spring breeze smile on her face.
"Your Majesty, this is also Mr. Huang's kind intention, but this servant is disrespectful and uses it on your Majesty's behalf."
She quickly took the lotus seed soup and drank it in a few mouthfuls.
Zhu Youxiao sat down depressedly.
Huang Xiao's face was calm, but his mood was also depressed!
This time I guessed wrong, but what about in the future?
Do we have to be so careful every day?
"Your Majesty, the Marquis happens to be here today. Last time you said so eloquently that you would let your slaves buy shares in Dahuang Manor, can you discuss it with the Marquis?" Keshi said with a smile.
Huang Xiao was furious. What did this bitch mean when she said Zhu Youxiao's golden words?
It was nothing more than trying to drive a wedge between himself and Zhu Youxiao.
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Huang Xiao with some embarrassment, and said with a guilty conscience: "Brother Xian has not recovered yet, let's discuss this later!"
Huang Xiao laughed and said: "Since His Majesty has spoken so eloquently, I naturally have to give Madam some face. At the price of Wei Zhongxian, two million per share, what do Madam think?"
Keshi was slightly surprised, but then she smiled broadly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty and the Marquis, for your support. I will definitely raise the capital in three days at the latest."
The two looked at each other and smiled thoughtfully.
Huang Xiaoxin said: "First hold on to your bitch, wait until I bring Zhu Youxiao to understand your evil deeds, hmph!"
Keshi thought to herself: "First hold on to your kid, and in a moment, everything you have will be mine! I want it all with the interest! Ha!"
