I, fused with Vegeta, invaded the reincarnation space - #125 - Chapter 125
As a result, a large group of Huaixi nobles gathered at the residence of Duke Liang again and discussed how to drink soup after King Su Zhu Mei’s ass!
But how could the actions of these guys be hidden from Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes?
Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Biao, even in the palace, they know Lan Yu and the others’ actions well!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had no intention of stopping it, but planned to wait and see what happened!
In fact, if Lan Yu and his group of noble Huaixi nobles can really create interests with Lao Shi4 and even bring them closer, that would be something Zhu Yuanzhang would be happy to see!
And Zhu Yuanzhang also believes that with Lao Si4’s methods, it is actually very easy to deal with Lan Yu and the others!”Dad, do we really need to recruit hundreds of thousands of civilians to build roads?”
“The monthly payment of 800 Wen per person per month is not a small amount, and it also includes a meal!”
Although Zhu Biao supported road construction, he was shocked by the plan formulated by Zhu Yuanzhang. The main reason was that it was a bit too big and required too much money!
One hundred thousand people, for example, one 24 moonlight is The monthly payment is 80,000 taels!
That’s 800,000 taels a year!
This is just the salary of the peasants!
In other words, the salary alone requires an investment of one million taels a year. It’s still a conservative estimate! In addition, there are various expenses and other road construction costs, especially cement!
According to rough statistics, it costs at least more than three million taels a year, and it only builds the road from Ganzhou to Yingtianfu. That’s all!
“What’s all the fuss about?”
“The cost of building roads is there!”
“How much difference is there in the cost if it takes 100,000 people to build it for one year and if it takes 10,000 people to build it for ten years?”
“We just want to be able to repair the cement road as soon as possible and earn back the money spent on building the road as soon as possible!”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled disapprovingly.
He thought that by the time he was ready to leave for Ganzhou, the cement road from Yingtian Mansion to Ganzhou Mansion should be almost completed even if it was not completely completed!
Of course, It’s not just to make it easier for you to travel! Building cement roads as soon as possible is of great significance to economic development and transportation! It’s also true for the military! So Zhu Yuanzhang did this after careful consideration! It seems to be costly, but it shortens the construction period, which is a more economical method!
Instead, it will cost more manpower, material and financial resources to build the road slowly, and there is no guarantee that any accidents will occur!
Zhu Biao was stunned when he heard this, but after thinking about the old man’s words carefully, he realized that there seemed to be nothing wrong with this investment!
Otherwise, why would Jiang be so old?
……
Ganzhou, Prince Su’s Mansion.
Zhu Kai looked at the letter just sent from the court, with a smile on his face! The old man had written to him before and discussed the matter of building cement roads, but Zhu Laizhi said that he could afford the construction in the northwest. If other regions wanted to build cement roads, they would have to pay for them themselves!
He thought that the old man would think twice, and it would take a long time before it was finalized. He didn’t expect a reply so soon!
And the Ministry of Household Affairs actually happily allocated funds directly! Along with the old man’s letter, there was also money escorted over by someone from the Ministry of Accounts!
“It seems that the refined salt business, coupled with the Ming Dynasty’s salt merchant tax, has given the old man a taste of the sweetness! The treasury should not be short of money now!”
Zhu Gai thought for a while and probably understood why the old man was so happy!
In fact, the largest annual expenditure in the imperial government’s finances has always been the cost of building the Great Wall! Most of the magnificent Great Wall in later generations is actually the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty. During the nearly 300 years of the Ming Dynasty, the construction of the Great Wall basically never stopped! In fact, Zhu Kai saw that this was a complete waste!
He had many ways to clear Mobei, so he decided to do it himself. Emperor, it’s impossible to build the Great Wall!
If he had the time and effort to raise more soldiers, the effect would be greater than the Great Wall, and he wouldn’t need to spend so much money!
In terms of construction, the Ming Dynasty was indeed the most powerful in the world at this time. The country like Yingtian Mansion, as the capital of the Ming Dynasty, is like an iron wall inside and out! This is also due to Zhu Yuanzhang’s strict requirements for craftsmen!
In terms of construction projects, at least under the old man’s nose, no one What little tricks do you dare to do!
“Now, at least the road construction can continue!”
Zhu Gai looked at the letter Zhu Yuanzhang sent again, and he felt very good! However, according to the number of civilian workers recruited by the old man, as well as the monthly wages and benefits, it seems that he is eager to repair the cement road as soon as possible. Ah! At least there won’t be any problems with the cement road between Ganzhou Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture!
If it’s fast, it won’t even take a year! It’s natural to gather hundreds of thousands of people in just ten days. Hundreds of thousands of people are building a section of cement road in the same place!
The cement road can be built in sections, connected end to end, which is the fastest! With a team of hundreds of thousands of people, the construction speed will not be slow for more than half a year! It will take time to get through it all!
After all, it is being laid on the basis of the original official road, and there is no overly complicated large-scale project. There should not be much 073 like digging mountains and roads!
The construction of cement roads has been greatly accelerated!
In general, Zhu Yuanzhang is copying Zhu Mei’s Ganzhou model! He, Lao Zhu, can’t figure out how to do it, so he just copies the work. Don’t you see that all the feudal lords are copying this homework?���The same character is copied!
But the fragrance is really fragrant. Even if it is not as good as Ganzhou, it can still make everyone taste the sweetness. This shows how terrifying Old Fourteen is! In fact, this is inevitable!
The main reason is that Zhu Kai’s series of reforms and policies have indeed greatly promoted the economy and people’s livelihood! In ancient times, ordinary people basically had no source of income. If they wanted to survive, they relied more on the one-third of an acre of land they planted!
It’s okay if you have a field at home, but if you work as a sharecropper and encounter a shady owner, whether you can have enough to eat will be a problem all year round, even if there is a bumper harvest!
Unlike modern society, even if you haven’t read a book, you can still work as a waiter in a restaurant or make screws in a factory, and there are many industries that provide food and accommodation. As long as your hands and feet are sound and you are willing to work hard, I’m sure I won’t starve to death! But it was different in the Ming Dynasty!
For example, jobs that include food and accommodation are only available in consumer places like restaurants!.
