Chapter 62 Magical
Zhu Di was even more shocked this time.
I thought that with these three magical crops, the people of my Ming Dynasty would no longer have to endure hunger.
However, they did not expect that these crops could also be used as anchors of Baochao to offset inflation, and could also turn them into economic means to absorb surrounding countries.
After Zhu Di patiently listened to Zhu Yuanzhang's cold-resistant and high-yield crops, which were planted with sweet potatoes and potatoes, could control all the land north of the Great Wall in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, he suddenly stood up excitedly.
Compared to other princes of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di was more like a purer military general.
Only marching and fighting is the loftiest ideal in his heart.
Now when he hears that he can fulfill his dream of marching and fighting, and can also completely grasp those territory firmly in the hands of the Ming Dynasty.
How could this make him not excited or excited?
"Dad, please arrange for people to plant them quickly."
Zhu Di shouted anxiously.
Zhu Di seemed to have imagined that he led 100,000 cavalry to sweep across the Northern Yuan world and killing the Northern Yuan Tartars without leaving any scenes.
Looking at Zhu Di who was excited and unable to extricate himself, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.
"So youngest, would you like to grow potatoes?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked seriously at his youngest son.
"Dad, I didn't hear it clearly!"
Zhu Di took out his ears in confusion, thinking that he had hallucinations.
"Are you stupid to let you grow potatoes?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was also a little confused.
Didn't you express it clearly enough?
"You said you plant potatoes?"
Zhu Di asked in surprise.
As the Prince of the Ming Dynasty, why did I inexplicably ask me to plant potatoes?
Is there something wrong with my dad?
"Yes, plant potatoes, plant all these."
Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the three divine objects placed in front of him and said.
Your dad, I just talked to you so much, what do you think I want to do?
It’s not that you realize the importance of several magical objects, and that you will plant potatoes for me obediently.
"Impossible, I refuse."
"If you just ask others to do this, just plant something like this."
"I, Zhu Di, are the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the royal family, the phoenix son and the grandson of the dragon. Dad, you actually asked me to plant potatoes?"
Zhu Di is not the emperor who can conquer the desert for five times and create the prosperous era of Yongle, nor is he the King of Yan who is extremely cunning and can pretend to be crazy and stupid.
Now he is just a young and promising young man with a bright clothes and anger.
His most lofty ideal in his life was like generals like Huo Qubing and Wei Qing, who went to fight against the Tartars.
Seal the wolf and the stones of Yanshan.
Let the Ming Dynasty Roewe all over the world.
But now, my father actually asked me to grow potatoes.
Isn’t this a real cut off your dream?
As a real-power prince who commands hundreds of thousands of troops and is intimidating all directions, he actually has to plant potatoes facing the loess and backs facing the sky.
If you say something, you will be laughed at to death.
How can I control my subordinates in the future and then conquer all directions?
"Young man, I really have no choice but to let you grow potatoes."
Zhu Yuanzhang really had no choice.
Since he established the Ming Dynasty, the system of local Zhengzhong Secretariat in Mongolian and Yuan dynasties was abolished and changed to the provincial government to declare the political envoy, and the chief official acted as the governor, in charge of the people's livelihood and economy of a province.
However, in order to balance the situation, Zhu Yuanzhang set up two major institutions in various provinces, including the Criminal Censorate and the Commander Censorate.
The supervisors of these two major institutions are the Censor and the Commander, respectively, responsible for judicial supervision and military security in a province.
However, after the separation of the three powers of each province, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the power of the governor was a bit too strong, so he divided the governor into two halves and divided them into left and right governors.
As a result, the provinces of the Ming Dynasty had three independent administrative teams and four supreme leaders with different ties.
Although this ensures that the provinces will not make trouble, the efficiency of doing things is too low.
Take the three major crops of potatoes and sweet potatoes as examples.
This matter should have been to announce the work of the Political and Envoy Department.
However, the farmlands of the garrisons in each province were owned by the commander-in-chief of the capital, and the land belonging to each post was under the jurisdiction of the Censorate.
Only the strong support of the Duo Commander and the Censor is inseparable from the strong support.
Plus two other governors.
Everyone is the supreme leader, why should I obey your instructions?
If there is a quarrel, I don’t know when this matter will be done.
If there are any major matters that require the cooperation of three yamen in each province, the court will usually arrange a general manager to mediate first.
According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, the Grandmaster Prince gave rituals to all officials.
It is a truly noble existence.
Therefore, the matters led by various provinces are generally led by the princes of various places.
Otherwise, the fight will be endless if you just talk.
"Then why don't you let the other two brothers do this?"
Zhu Di spoke unwillingly.
His second brother Zhu Ceng and his third brother Zhu Ceng are located in Xi'an, Shaanxi and Taiyuan, Shanxi respectively.
The territory they belong to is either the 800-li Qinchuan or the Fenhe Valley.
If you grow potatoes, it is much better than the poor place in Peking.
Why didn't I go to find his brothers, but I just looked for the youngest among the brothers.
"Youngest, who can make you live in a place that is more important than the other two places combined."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a glaring look on his beard.
The biggest reason why he wanted Zhu Di to take the lead in growing potatoes was how to defeat the Tartars in the shortest time and then take the vast grasslands into his own hands.
From ancient times to the present, the Han Dynasty has faced threats brought by nomadic peoples, mostly from the two major directions, namely the north and the northeast.
In historical books, except for the Huns, an alien originating from Yan and Huang, such as the Turkic Xianbei, Khitan and Jurchen, none of them came from these two major places.
Perhaps according to Zhu Yuanzhang's idea, he planned to go from the northeast to the northwest first, and then get 9 to 13 foreign kings out of the frontier, tightly control the north of the Great Wall, and not give the Tartars the opportunity to go south to burn, kill, loot.
The most important ones are the two major directions: the north and the northeast, which are the places where we are taking care of them.
No matter how young his other princes are, they have only arranged the second, third, and fourth brothers to serve as King of Sai, with three fiefs.
Among the few brothers, the youngest territory is closest to the two directions of the northeast and the north.
