Seeing Fang Jifan standing still, Zhu Houzhao continued to beckon to him: "Come on." ”

Fang Jifan's eyes rolled and he saw several eunuchs standing in the corner.

So he smiled and said: "Your Highness, the duty of the Son of Heaven is no greater than the courtesy, the ceremony is greater than the share, the point is greater than the name, only the name and the instrument, not a dummy; Although His Royal Highness is now the prince, he is ordered to supervise the country, just like the Son of Heaven, and it is the duty of the Son of Heaven and the prince of the country to approve the affairs, and the ministers dare not be arbitrary. ”

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said: "Old Fang, you have the courage to do other things, but you are so cautious about these things." ”

Fang Jifan smiled and ignored him.

Zhu Houzhao immediately raised his head: "There are so many notes sent every day, most of them are useless, they are all nonsense, they are annoying to look at, Lao Fang, this palace is a prison country, what do you have in mind." ”

"Your Royal Highness, the supervision of the country is to defend the country, the key to defending the country, lies in this word, Your Highness don't do anything, just follow the step-by-step process, the real big thing, as long as it is not urgent, wait for Your Majesty to return to Beijing, and then deal with it."

Zhu Houzhao took pictures of the case and was angry: "Dare to let this palace be the head of the cell here." ”

Fang Jifan shook his head: "Your Highness is angry." ”

The identity is different.

In the past, you could call Zhu Houzhao Xiaozhu, and you could play with him.

But since he is in charge of the country, then he is acting as a fake son of heaven, that is, this imperial power is added to Zhu Houzhao's body, and Fang Jifan has always had no intention of offending the imperial power.

It's not that Fang Jifan is weak, but what era and what kind of things he does.

Zhu Houzhao threw away the pen and sighed: "There is a note here, saying that there is another drought in Henan, and the cabinet vote is written to order the household department to provide relief and succeed the domain, what do you think?" ”

Fang Jifan said: "Over the years, natural disasters have been frequent, if it is just relief, the minister may not be a complete strategy. ”

Zhu Houzhao frowned: "So, what should I do?" ”

"Place them." Fang Jifan said: "Henan has a large population, although the land is fertile, but after all, the land is limited. With such a large population, and in recent years, disasters have been frequent, a natural disaster, even if the imperial court can provide timely relief, how many people will die? ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded: "It makes sense, so in your opinion, what should I do?" ”

Fang Jifan said: "You might as well move some of the victims out." ”

"Move out." Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up: "Yes, you should move out, aren't we short of people in Beijing?" By the way, Lao Fang, how to move? ”

Fang Jifan coughed......

"It is not easy to buy land and build a new city, it is not easy to resettle so many people at once, and it costs a lot of money, to give them food and clothing, and most of them, who have just come out, can not adapt to it, so it is necessary to train the young and strong people in skills, and for the old and weak, there needs to be enough medical care to ensure that they can live and work in peace and contentment. Not only that, but each workshop also has to bear some responsibilities, Your Highness...... Chan wants to ...... The most important thing at the moment is that the times are difficult for the Community......"

Zhu Houzhao began to ponder.

The cost is staggering.

Human life is like a mustard, if you want people to live, you have to provide for them, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand people is fine, but what if it is a huge scale?

Zhu Houzhao said: "When the palace was in Xishan, I shared the joys and sorrows with the common people, and I know how hard their lives are, hey......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but sigh.

The life in Xishan is enough to make Zhu Houzhao, a heartless guy, feel something.

He said: "They are all the emperor's people, but now, the father is not here, then, they are the people of the palace, the successor, you calculate, if you want to migrate out of the population, how many silver taels are needed?" ”

Fang Jifan said: "There are countless counts. ”

It's the truth.

Migration is a thing that cannot be opened.

If it is a natural migration, it is fine, and once it is allowed to migrate in a disaster year, it will be the impact of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people, which is a very terrifying thing.

If they fail to do so, these millions of people will breed resentment, resentment, and chaos.

And so many people have moved out, so they must be able to support their families.

Relying on the relief of the imperial court alone will not work.

Although the current manpower of the Beijing division is tight, it needs to have a benign process, and this sudden population explosion will inevitably have an impact.

Fang Jifan has always believed that the current crowd is overcrowded.

Take the Henan Political Envoy as an example, the land there should be reclaimed, and many tenants can only rent two or three acres of land to barely make a living.

But these two or three acres of land, in terms of the yield per mu in this era, where can you eat enough.

Obviously, a family can rent ten acres, or even thirty acres or fifty acres of land, but because there are too many people, they can barely let themselves live.

These surplus populations are just returned in good years, and when they come to disaster years, they are disasters.

To solve this problem, we must make a fuss about these populations, otherwise, with the annual relief of the imperial court, it is impossible to solve the fundamental problem, and the population in the future will only increase and snowball, until the imperial court can not help at all, and when that time comes, a dynasty will naturally enter the process of rise and fall.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly got up, and he paced back and forth.

In his mind, Zhu Houzhao thought about the scene when he was in Xishan, when he lived with the homeless people.

Sewage flows, living in sheds, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, and can barely eat enough every day, I feel that this is a gift from God, and I am constantly grateful to Dade.

So...... Compared with those displaced people in Xishan at the beginning, these disaster victims are only afraid of ...... Let's make life even harder.

Zhu Houzhao said: "The treasury allocated some money and grain for the purpose of relocating the people. But in the eyes of the main palace, the treasury cannot cope with it, so how much will it cost and how much manpower and material resources will be needed...... This palace doesn't care, you have to do whatever it takes. Inner ...... At present, all the assets and stocks, as well as the deposited silver, are now more than 97,643,700 taels, of which the stocks are the largest, but if these stocks are sold at a price, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the stock market. ”

When Fang Jifan heard that there were nearly 100 million taels of silver in the house, his heart couldn't help but feel sour, Your Majesty has saved so much money?

"This is easy to do, you can use stocks as collateral and take out a loan from Xishan Bank, but ...... If this is the case, it will inevitably cause inflation, but it will not ...... Your Highness can rest assured that Xishan Qianzhuang will keep this expansion under control. ”

"That's it." Zhu Houzhao said: "The monthly income of the inner library is quite a lot, the dividends of the listed commercial banks, as well as the dividends of many workshops in Qianzhuang and Xishan, and the repayment of loans, all of which are pediatrics. Where will these displaced people be placed? Old Fang, let's each take out a piece of land, let's take more land from the palace, let's do a big vote. ”

Zhu Houzhao continued: "In the next six months, Xishan Qianzhuang will take out three thousand taels of silver, as long as there is no problem with Qianzhuang, I will immediately send the stocks in the inner treasury to Qianzhuang as collateral." Right now...... The palace personally issued an edict. ”

Zhu Houzhao is a resolute person.

He belongs to a hot head, and once he has made up his mind, he will not be able to pull back nine cows.

The problem of more people and less land, in history, has been throughout the middle of the Ming Dynasty to its demise, and no one can solve it.

Can ...... now There seems to be a way around it.

After all...... Now there is silver in the inner treasury.

Fang Jifan couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, do you want to give Your Majesty a lesson." ”

Zhu Houzhao brushed a few strokes and wrote an edict.

This edict has nothing to do with it at all, and only understates it: "The prince of Fengtian Jianguo, the edict says: that is, the government of Henan Province will be ordered to relocate the disaster victims, and the quasi-disaster victims will migrate voluntarily, and the government should bear the ...... if they need it along the way."

Zhu Houzhao lowered his head and said: "In my father's temperament, there are too many places to look forward and backward, and when the music is cleared, he took the idea, but he is afraid that the victims will starve to death, this is a top priority, disaster relief is like fighting fires, it is not a joke." And his father loves the people like a son, and there is nothing wrong with doing this, even if he knows that the palace has made up his mind on his behalf, he must be very happy, Lao Fang, why are you so verbose, more and more like my father. ”

Fang Jifan sighed and said: "Yes, Your Majesty has always loved the people like a son, if he is in such a situation under His Royal Highness the Prince, he will definitely do so, my emperor is Shengming, and he is kind-hearted." ”

Zhu Houzhao threw the edict to the eunuch on the side: "...... immediately." Send it to the celebrant for sealing, and then send it to the cabinet, telling them that they can't be delayed for a moment, and if they are delayed, the palace will chop them. ”

"Yes."

After explaining these things, Zhu Houzhao suddenly seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and was very happy: "I think there is nothing difficult in governing the world, there is an old man to assist the palace, and the palace can sit back and relax." ”

Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Your Highness, this is your own idea, but it has nothing to do with the minister, and the minister didn't say anything." ”

"You instigated it." Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "If you don't believe it, this palace will check the living note." As he spoke, he looked into the corner at a eunuch with a pen to record.

Fang Jifan's face blushed to the root of his ears: "Your Highness, this statement is ridiculous, the minister just made a suggestion, it is His Highness's ......"

"It's the same." Zhu Houzhao waved his big hand back: "It's useless to talk about this now, think about it, next, how to deal with these victims, this is not a joke, if anything goes wrong, you can't eat and walk around." ”

Fang Jifan said: "Your Highness can't eat and walk around." ”

Zhu Houzhao was not convinced: "You will die a little more miserable." ”

Fang Jifan thought about it carefully, and actually felt that it made sense.

He suddenly felt that he had been tricked, why did it seem that he was going to take the blame this time?

When I think about it, I don't think it's right, how did I come up with this idea? It is clear that the rule of a big country should cook small fresh, and everything will be hidden, and it will pass.

Don't...... Has our succession to the country and the people reached the point of madness?

Fang Jifan sighed in his heart.
