Chapter 61 The Rise of the Capitalists(2/2)
You shouldn't allow the private sector to possess armor, so they won't have it.
As for whether you can set up prefectures and counties here to dispatch officials for management, that has nothing to do with me.
In short, the land is yours, the people are yours, I only provide money, and finally collect grain to make money. If you agree, I am also willing to do other things, such as iron smelting, but I am sure that Ming Dynasty laws cannot do it.
Won't do it.
You still have officials watching over you.
And you must have garrison troops, and the food for these garrison troops will be supplied by my merchant villages.
Wouldn’t everyone be happy with this?”
Yang Feng said.
Cold weapons can also be used!
The steel crossbow is not much worse than the matchlock gun.
As for the armor, there is indeed no armor, but he can make thicker cotton-padded clothes for his men. This is okay? If you don’t wear thick cotton-padded clothes in a place like this, you will definitely freeze to death in the winter, so adding a raw silk lining to the cotton-padded clothes will definitely be fine...
The thick raw silk lining can be used as a junior version of body armor.
Zhu Di frowned and looked at him, probably not understanding what he wanted to do.
“What does the ambassador want?
Even the Jurchens would not want to stay in such a bitter and cold place. If they had no other choice, they would not even live here. Not only would they not be able to produce a single grain of food by cultivating wasteland and farming here, at least they would not be able to support themselves.
The ambassador built a commercial village here, but in the end he just filled it in for nothing."
Zhang Yu asked unbearably.
"What are you trying to figure out?
I only want such a good land, and I can't just throw it away to the barbarians.
I wonder why this great river and mountain cannot become a place where the people of the Ming Dynasty can thrive and live.
As for input and output, this has nothing to do with you. Yang paid for the gold himself. In the end, even if I pay compensation, I will pay it to myself. People always have to try, what if it can succeed? If I can succeed in building a commercial village,
Your garrison has rations, and the imperial court has gained new states and counties. Everyone is happy.
If it doesn’t work out, it will be my own misfortune!”
Yang Feng said.
In fact, he is also an adventurer.
After all, he could only confirm that soybeans and sorghum could be grown here.
There is no doubt about this.
But if we want to form a stable agriculture, we must adopt a certain degree of mechanization, otherwise it will definitely not work simply by relying on manual labor. After all, both soybeans and sorghum are widely planted and the harvest is low, so enough seeders must be manufactured.
Fortunately, this is not difficult.
As for livestock for farming, it is simple. Both cattle and horses can be easily obtained.
The other thing is recruiting people.
this……
Throw money!
It's not like he's short of money.
Later, he sold a batch of grenades to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"This matter is not something that Xiao Wang can decide. It needs to be reported to the court."
Zhu Di said.
"It would be faster, but if that's the case, I think we should go to Xiguancheng."
Yang Feng said.
"Do you really want to kill Meng Brother Timur?"
"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. It doesn't matter to me whether Meng Timur dies or not. What matters is that he is really useful to me. If your emperor really agrees to my investment plan, then I can't recruit civilians from the south to go to Liaodong."
?That would take more than half a year, so I need sea transportation. From the south, I can take the southeast wind to the Tumen River and then to Xiguan City.
Then we changed the river from Xiguancheng to Huli, and the rest was straight down the river."
Yang Feng said.
Indeed, the easiest route from the south to the Songhua River Basin is by sea.
"For sea transportation, doesn't it mean that we have to go through Korea?"
"Why, Li Chenggui is not allowed? He has the right to know the state affairs of North Korea and is just a temporary worker. Does he have the right to dictate what Ming Dynasty should do?"
"Well!"
