When Zhu Yuanzhang changed his mind, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked. The capital stopped first and dispatched craftsmen to build the Nanjing Palace?
It has only been built for a year, what will happen next? How to control it in the Central Plains?
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care what others thought, he just stopped and waited until Nanjing was completed before repairing.
The stone materials for Xiuzhongdu are no longer mined, and the five-color soil found from all over the Ming Dynasty is no longer needed. The wood-cutting continues.
The requirements for logging wood include places with rivers, or transportation close to the river, and parking in the mountains. The wood is transported directly to Nanjing, and then distributed from Nanjing to other coastal areas for sea-going shipbuilding.
After giving the order, urgent reports rushed to various places, telling the people not to be so tired, and that the central capital would not be built yet.
Zhu Taiyi and two others rushed back to the village and delivered a letter with a lacquer seal.
This was the first time the mayor saw a letter sealed by the Prince's Mansion. He recalled the steps, checked to see if the seal was correct, and then opened it.
The content of the letter was the imperial court's arrangements for Zhongdu, telling the man in the village that Linhao would no longer waste money and people, but wood was needed.
It has been arranged to build navy ships out of wood and take the coastal people out to fish. In the future, when the navy becomes larger, it will transport goods back to the Ming Dynasty.
The head of the neighborhood came to Hanhan and said, "Hanhan, stop it, really stop it. It was built last year, but we stopped it this year."
The director looked a little dazed. Was such a big thing stopped by Hanhan?
Zhu Wentian took the letter and looked at it, smiling: "Stop, okay, hey hey hey!"
He knew that no capital was needed to control the Central Plains in history. As long as the people were full, how could they think of rebellion?
He took a fancy to Peiping. Zhu Di moved the capital to Peiping at that time. Nanjing was too far to the north, which was not conducive to continued occupation of territory.
There is a Grand Canal in Peiping that connects to Hangzhou, so you can go to Nanjing. It is located at the same location as Tianjin, which is close to the sea.
Build up the river well. To the north of Peiping is Hebei, to the north is the grassland, and to the sea from Tianjin is the Bohai Sea. Through the Bohai Sea, you can easily control a large area.
Including Goryeo, Goryeo even admitted one of their people in the imperial examination this year. Unfortunately, that person was unwilling to be a county magistrate in the Ming Dynasty, so he went back to serve as an admonisher.
"Hanhan, Hanhan?" The leader saw Hanhan in a daze and touched him.
"Eh? I'll be busy next time. I'll teach you some more things." Zhu Wentian knew that the curtain on the stage had opened.
"Is it a matter of building a capital? It has been stopped!" The liangzhang couldn't figure it out.
"Stop, it represents the attitude of the palace. The construction of Zhongdu has been stopped. The palace wants to see more benefits. People heard that you stopped the big project that just started a year ago. Don't you have more ideas?"
"It's not me, I don't have it, I don't know." Li Chang was at a loss. Did he mention other things during the pause?
"It's me, but I can't go out. I'm only sixteen, and I'm a fool. When there's time, we can discuss it slowly before we reply. If someone suddenly asks us when we get to Nanjing, you have to know how to do it!"
"Like when I talked to Magistrate Song and the others? Okay, you tell me, I'll write it down."
The head of the village agreed. He didn't want to hand over the villagers, so he had to work hard himself.
What were you doing during this solar term in the past? worry? He took the villagers to weed the rice because they didn’t have enough energy to plow it deeply.
There is no need to weed now, just pull it out when you find it occasionally. When it grows a little longer and move the jute seedlings in, the grass will no longer grow.
It's just a good time to study more in my free time. Anyway, Hanhan is helping me, so I won't be tired.
"I'll find some smart young people in the village. My eldest son is a good one, and we'll teach them together." The head of the village was ready to find someone to share the burden.
The smart people in the village began to take charge of the management of each place. There was one person who raised pigs and led others, as well as those who raised poultry.
It is even more impossible that the kitchen lacks management personnel, plus one person for the paddy field and three people for the dry field...
Reading is very important, being able to write down things every day, writing down the tasks to be done, and also doing arithmetic.
…
The days returned to tranquility. The people who had worked hard for Jianzhongdu were so excited that they cried when they received the news.
Zhu Wentian and his people process the white fungus and fungus every year, take out the seeds and use a bunch of things as the base material to grow them.
There is no need to buy things like cottonseed hulls, wheat bran, gypsum, etc. from elsewhere, they are available in the village.
Wang Yiqian still brings artificial greenhouses, which are different from the greenhouses in Nanjing city, where they are all wooden structures and have brick walls in the village.
In the future, the land used for greenhouses will be dedicated to greenhouses, and if something is broken, it will be repaired instead of demolished.
It can be used for breeding in spring and autumn. When the weather is not hot enough, the seeds will not grow when they are planted in the ground. The seedlings will be raised in the greenhouse in advance. When the temperature is suitable for the seeds to emerge, they are basically suitable for crop growth.
When the time comes, transplant the seedlings directly to shorten the growth cycle, harvest in advance, and the ground will be easier to handle.
Zhu Wentian does not have mulch, so it is normal operation to use mulch for intensive seedling cultivation.
Since the greenhouse has a wall, a fire channel is added directly to the wall without digging the ground.
A canal was brought over to facilitate watering. There was no idle land by the river to build a greenhouse.
…
"Okay, good fight." In the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang shouted, news came back from the army attacking Sichuan.
The army on the North Road defeated several cities in a row. Sure enough, they made a lot of wooden signs and put them down with oil. The wooden signs were engraved with: Ke Jie, Wen, Mianzhou Sun and Moon.
When Xia Jun below saw so many wooden signs put down, his morale suddenly dropped, and the people guarding Chongqing were afraid.
Dai Shou and Wu Youren, who were setting up an iron cable formation across the river in Qutang Gorge, saw that this was not bad and rushed to reinforce them. As a result, they attacked the exhausted troops quickly and defeated the northern army who had been waiting for work to ambush, and suffered repeated setbacks.
"Go, scold Tang He for us, let him beat him, and beat him up. Write a letter to Xiaqiu Village and ask if there is any way to break the iron chain across the river. Let the prince write."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought that Tang He was still motionless. Didn't he see the wooden sign? They were all sent to Nanjing.
When he was anxious, he thought of Xiaqiu Village and asked if there was any good way.
Just as Zhu Wentian thought, Zhu Yuanzhang stopped the construction of Zhongdu after listening to the master's words, so he wanted to let the master come up with more ideas.
When the prince received the news, he immediately arranged for a fast boat to deliver the letter to Xiaqiu Village.
Zhou Zong was responsible for delivering the letter. He ordered people to paddle hard all the way, and finally arrived at Xiaqiu Village at noon.
Officials from Ningguo Mansion and Xuancheng County have also just arrived. Today is the 11th day of the seventh lunar month, the 24th day of the fifth lunar month, and the end of the lunar month of the Guimao year.
The previous one is Geng Day, the fourteenth day of the fifth lunar month, and the one before that is the fourth day of the fifth lunar month.
The fourth day of May is the summer solstice. Starting from the summer solstice, the third Geng day is Chufu, which happens to be a Geng day on the summer solstice.
It was a hot day, and officials came to offer condolences. Their clothes were soaked with sweat all the way there.
They dismounted and some villagers came to hold them. They walked a little further before entering the village and went directly to their office building to change clothes.
Here are their spare clothes, two sets of regular uniforms, including those for the Yamen servants.
They only need to bring their official seal, and there is no shortage of other things. It is so hard to go to work anywhere!
As soon as Zhou Zong came, he first gave the letter to the head of the village, and then took the boatman to his building to change clothes, rinse them with cold water, wash his hair, wipe it and spread it, and it would dry in a while.
The headmaster called Hanhan into the room, looked at the paint, opened the letter, and the two of them read it together.
"What should I do?" Li Chang frowned.
