Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Page 494

Even if Shanxi was captured later, what Zhao Wen considered in Daming was Xuanzhen and Shanxi.

Once he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, then the entire Ming Dynasty and the affairs of the entire world would suddenly fall on Zhao Wen's shoulders.

When dealing with overseas lands or foreign lands, Zhao Wen can also hand over these matters to his subordinates. As long as the general direction is not wrong, he can let these people manage them.

But Ming Dynasty is different, these are ancestral lands, lands that have been passed down for thousands of years, Zhao Wen dare not do anything freely in managing these places like managing overseas lands or overseas lands.

I dare not say that everything requires Zhao Wen's consideration and management, but there are absolutely many things that require Zhao Wen's consideration and management.

"This is the land of our ancestors. If we can't manage it well, we will be sorry for our ancestors and the heroic souls on this land!" Zhao Wenchang sighed, his face full of dignity.

At this moment, Zhao Wen felt pressure that he had never felt before.

Zhao Wen is not a god, it is impossible to be indifferent when facing these things, and it is impossible not to feel the pressure.

If there is really no pressure at all, then it is definitely not to change the world and become an emperor, but simply to be an emperor.

At this moment, Li Xiaoying walked up the small building with a big cloak and came to Zhao Wen's side.

Li Xiaoying walked behind Zhao Wen and put the cloak in her hand on Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen turned his head and looked at Li Xiaoying, heaving a sigh of relief, "Are you here?"

Li Xiaoying nodded and stood beside Zhao Wen, "What is your husband thinking?"

Li Xiaoying looked outside the small building, her tone full of concern.

Zhao Wen didn't hide anything, and directly expressed his worries.

"I didn't worry about anything, I just felt a lot of pressure all of a sudden.

The former territory was Longmen Fort and Xuan Town. Even though they acquired a lot of territory later, those territories were either sparsely populated or outside the borders. There were not many people in Ming Dynasty, so there was no burden to manage them.

But it's different now, once I ascend the throne and proclaim myself emperor, the burden of the entire Ming Dynasty will suddenly fall on me.

These lands are all ancestral lands, lands that have been passed down for thousands of years.In managing these lands, it is impossible for me to do what I did before, so I have some..."

"Husband!" Before Zhao Wen could finish speaking, Li Xiaoying interrupted Zhao Wen's voice.

"Husband, I remember that you often like to tell me that you want the world to run according to your ideas.

I once asked you why you want the world to run the way you do.

You told me at that time, you said, your method is the best method in the world, as long as the world operates according to your method, then all the people in the world can have enough food and clothing.

At that time, you were so confident and fearless.Why are you becoming so cautious now that you are going to be the emperor? "Li Xiaoying turned around and looked at Zhao Wen.

"You don't understand, this time it's the entire Ming Dynasty. Although I'm sure that my own method can make the entire Ming Dynasty prosperous and strong, I'm still a little worried.

You don't know, the burden on my shoulders is not limited to the two capitals and thirteen provinces of Ming Dynasty today. Apart from these lands and people, there is a history of nearly 5000 years on me.

There is Wu Ding, the king of Shang who created the prosperous age of Wu Ding; there is the heroine Fu Hao who defeated the barbarian coalition; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who was famous abroad for defeating the Xiongnu, King Wuxing who devoted himself to death, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizu of Song Dynasty, Emperor Taizu of Song Dynasty, and Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty who expelled the smell of sandalwood.

These histories weigh on me. If I take a wrong step, I will be sorry for history and my ancestors. "

Zhao Wen looked at Xuan Zhen under his feet and murmured.

Governing the whole world is not as simple as governing a Xuan Town. In Xuan Town, if you make a wrong step, you can overthrow it and start over, and it won't take too long.

But if it is in the whole world, once you make a mistake, it is not so easy to change.

Although Zhao Wen has the ability to transform the world according to his own ideas, but out of a sense of responsibility for this land, Zhao Wen has to be cautious.

"Husband, you don't have to be like this. Only you can save the world today, and today's Xuanzhen is a good example.

In my eyes, the husband is omnipotent.The original Xuan Town was just a relatively important city among the important towns on the nine borders. Although it bears the name of the important town on the nine borders, the people inside are extremely poor.

It is because of my husband that I became what I am today.I believe my husband, Xuanzhen can become so beautiful, and the world will be so beautiful in the future! "

Li Xiaoying looked into Zhao Wen's eyes and kept encouraging Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen nodded heavily, showing a slight smile, "You are right, I will make the world like Xuanzhen in the future."

Chapter 572 The Chinese Empire, the Kingdom of Heaven

At this time, Liu Wenzhong and the others dispatched all the people in their hands, Zhao Daniu, Song Hu and others also got on the train bound for Datong and Taiyuan, planning to go there in person.

The people sent out by Liu Wenzhong took the written posters and posted them all over Xuanzhen, clearly stating that Zhao Wen became the throne.

In addition to these, Liu Wenzhong also directly published the news on the Daming Daily, highlighting the matter on the front page of the newspaper.

When the news of Zhao Wen's accession to the throne spread throughout Xuanzhen, the people of Xuanzhen suddenly became excited.

At this time, they are even more excited than during the Chinese New Year. The streets and alleys are full of people discussing this matter.

In a teahouse, a middle-aged man wearing a foreign uniform was sitting in the lobby on the first floor of the teahouse.

This person is none other than Xue Zexi who had talked with Lu Xiangsheng before.

There were three or five friends sitting next to the table where Xue Zexi was sitting. Xue Zexi looked at these friends and said happily: "Master Chief Soldier should have been enthroned a long time ago, and now Lord Chief Soldier's territory is no less than that of the imperial court. It is still credit, it is completely enough.

Not to mention the pacification of the grassland and the recovery of Liaodong, just because our Xuan Town has been built so prosperously, the commander-in-chief should be enthroned as emperor.

I used to be from Tongzhou. Tongzhou is located in the outskirts of the capital. Logically speaking, this kind of place should be prosperous, but what?The result is exactly the opposite!

The people in Tongzhou are very poor. Most of the land in Tongzhou is owned by those nobles in the city. The local people can only be tenants for others. How can they have their own land?

I, Xue Zexi, am a Juren, but my family's property is only fifty acres of land, and this fifty acres of land can only be used for food and clothing throughout the year, and it is basically impossible to make money.

Moreover, there are quite a few Xungui's scumbags who come to my house every year to fight the autumn wind. These scumbags rely on Xungui's backing behind them, so they don't take us country gentry seriously, and they blackmail us a lot of money every year.

But what about our Xuan Town?In our Xuan Town, who would dare to do this?How many people dare to do this?Today's Xuanzhen, Haiqing, Heyan, officials work hard, this alone is not comparable to the imperial court! "

Xue Zexi was eloquent, talking about his own thoughts.

A middle-aged scholar sitting next to him knocked on the table, and said excitedly: "Brother Xue is right, besides these things, there are also things like trains, bicycles, and tricycles.

Especially the train, when there is no train, it takes a lot of effort for us to go to Longmen Fort, let alone go to Shanxi from here.

But since Mr. Chief Soldier got the train out, as long as the railway is repaired, where can we not go?Not to mention Longmen Fort, even if you go to Taiyuan Mansion for a stroll, you can just leave.

Before going to Shanxi, it took three to five days at least, and ten days at most, but now?How can it be so convenient when the morning arrives late?

There are also tricycles and bicycles, these two things are really good things for ordinary people.

Ordinary ordinary people, who want to pull food or goods, either push flatbed carts, or hire ox carts or donkey carts.

If people pull flatbed trucks, don't even think about loading more goods. If they are pulled by animals, the cost is not ordinary.

Ordinary households, who can raise cows and donkeys?If they want to use ox carts or donkey carts, they can only hire them.But the price of employment is not low. If they raise themselves, one animal will eat more than three people. Can ordinary people afford it?

But after this tricycle came out, it was different.

With tricycles, there is no need to hire ox carts or donkey carts. Although tricycles may not pull as much as ox carts and donkey carts, it saves money.

Tricycles don’t eat grass and don’t get sick. If you buy it once, as long as the tricycle is not broken, you will benefit for life.

It can be seen that tricycles are much more affordable than ox carts and donkey carts.In addition, the cement roads have been repaired all over Xuan Town, and it doesn't take much effort for a tricycle to walk on these roads.

And tricycles, like trains, were made by Mr. Zong Bing.

It is our blessing that our Xuan Town can have such a wise and powerful lord as the Chief Soldier.If Mr. Zong Bing is enthroned as emperor, it will be the blessing of the whole world.

Our commander-in-chief should be enthroned as emperor, and we should be enthroned as emperor! "

"That's right, what I'm talking about is that we wouldn't be where we are today without the Chief Soldier, long live the Chief Soldier!"

The people sitting around them listened to their conversation, applauded them non-stop, and finally shouted long live.

One person started, and it didn't take long for the people in the hall to cheer, and the cheers spread outside, and the people outside also cheered.

As the news of Zhao Wen's ascension to the throne spread farther and farther, the people in the entire Xuanzhen City finally cheered.

At this moment, they hoped so much that Zhao Wen could ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

There is a huge piece of land less than twenty miles away from Xuanzhen Town outside the city. This piece of land was originally a wasteland, but was later developed into arable land by Zhao Wen.

The people who fled from Shanxi, Shaanxi were arranged here by Zhao Wen.

There are now more than 50 villages on this land, and the people in these villages live very happily here.

Although at the beginning, they had to pay a lot of taxes for planting these lands, but after they cultivated them for three years, these lands became their fields, and they were still the kind that could be passed on to their families.

Now only a certain amount of food tax is needed every year, and the rest is theirs.

Compared with the grain tax paid to the imperial court, the grain tax they paid could not be less, and there were no exorbitant miscellaneous taxes.

Today's them, everyone can wear clothes and don't have to worry about food, even if it's meat, they can eat it if they want.

Moreover, Zhao Wen also set up elementary schools for their children. There is one elementary school in every five villages. All school-age children can be sent to the elementary school.

The tuition fees in Mengxue are also unbelievably low, and they don't have to worry about tuition fees at all.

From ancient times to the present, no matter which dynasty or generation, Chinese people are very keen on reading.

These people have basically never read a book, and they don't know a word in this life.When Mengxue was opened, they sent their children to Mengxue without hesitation.

In their hearts, it was all thanks to Zhao Wen that they could have a good life now. In their eyes, as long as they followed Zhao Wen, they would surely be able to live a good life.

Without Zhao Wen, they would not have enough food and clothing today, and their children would not have the opportunity to go to school.

In the middle of a wheat field in a village, an official sent by Liu Wenzhong stood there, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and read aloud, "Since Mr. Zongbing moved into Xuanzhen, Xuanzhen..."

Around him, all the people in the village gathered around him, listening to his voice quietly.

The official praised Zhao Wen a lot, and finally said: "Master Zong Bing has the highest merits of the three emperors, and has surpassed the five emperors. Now that the Ming court is rotten, it is time for Mr. Zong Bing to save the common people in the world.

Therefore, the enthronement of Lord Zongbing as the emperor is already a matter of no delay, what do you think? "

"Impressions? We don't have any thoughts. Our current good life is given by Mr. Zongbing. It is only natural for Mr. Zongbing to be emperor, and we also support Mr. Zongbing as emperor!"

The village head stood beside the officials, shouting loudly.

"We resolutely support Lord Zongbing as the emperor, resolutely support!"

"Long live the Chief Soldier, long live the Chief Soldier!"

All of a sudden, the people surrounding the official shouted frantically.

"Sign up to the Wanmin Letter, requesting the Commander-in-Chief to be the emperor!" The official closed the document in his hand, and raised his arms with a frenzied expression.

"Yes, tens of thousands of people have written a letter, requesting that the commander-in-chief be the emperor!" The surrounding people all cheered.

Seeing this, the official took out a huge piece of rice paper from his arms with a look of excitement.

"Village head, find a table. I want to count your names and write the book of ten thousand people!" The official looked at the village head.

The village chief nodded, "My lord, I'll find you a table right away!"

As the village chief spoke, he took a few young and strong young men and ran towards the village, and it didn't take long for a table and stools to be brought in.

The official sat on the stool, spread the rice paper in his hand on the table, and then took out a brush, inkstone and an ingot of ink from his arms.

He asked someone to bring some water over, and after opening the ink, he asked the people in the village to line up one by one and count their names.

After the names were counted, everyone was asked to put their fingerprints on the Wanmin Book.

After finishing everything, he put the rice paper in his arms, rode on the bicycle he had placed on the edge of the wheat field, and headed towards Xuan Town.

The village chief sent the officials out of the village, and he looked at the departing officials with a smile on his face.

"Haha, Mr. Zongbing is going to be the emperor, and our good days are coming!" the village head said excitedly.

"That's right, the village chief. I thought we were just refugees fleeing from a disaster, and no matter where we went, we were not welcomed by others, but the commander-in-chief did not dislike us. He not only distributed food to us, but also distributed land to us.

Now the two children of my family are also enrolled in elementary schools. If they do well in their studies and pass the primary school in Xuanzhen, then they will not have to plan food in the fields in the future. "

A middle-aged man was standing next to the village head. He thought about everything he had come to Xuan Town, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and finally choked up.

"Master Zongbing is more kind than the Bodhisattva in the sky. Only he can be the emperor. If anyone dares not to let Mr. Zongbing become emperor, I will fight him hard!"

The man knelt down with a plop, facing Xuanzhen's direction, and kowtowed a few times heavily.

"I have nothing to thank Mr. Zongbing. I can only kowtow to Mr. Zongbing. Long live Mr. Zongbing!"

The middle-aged man knelt on the ground, looked at Xuan Zhen excitedly, and kowtowed non-stop.

The people standing behind him also knelt down, followed behind him, and kowtowed in the direction of Xuanzhen.

These ordinary people have no great ambitions in their hearts. All they need is a full meal and a warm coat. Whoever can satisfy them can capture their loyalty.

Scenes like this are constantly being staged all over Xuan Town.
