Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Chapter 5 Twelve Threats and lures have to be taken care of!

However, it was useless. The people of the Ming Dynasty were unwilling to go to Liaodong because it was too far away.

Before the emergence of such artifacts as trains, a distance of hundreds of miles could already be regarded as a long journey. Thousands of miles away, the situation of not knowing life and death is normal.

After all, there was no WeChat at this time, no mobile phones, not even telephones and telegrams, and at the same time, clan relations had to be considered.

How did the term "people leave their hometowns and cheap" come about?

In the place where the clan is located, it has been multiplied from generation to generation, and the people and relationships they meet are intricate, and many things are easy to do.

And once you leave the clan's sphere of influence, if you want to do something, it's easy to just ask your grandpa to sue your grandma, unless you have a lot of money and use money to open the way.

The problem is, if there is a lot of money, who is free to leave their clan's sphere of influence?

What's more, they ran to Nurgandus in Liaodong or further away, and even places like Java and Xinming Island.

And once they go, the hope of returning to Daming in their lifetime is basically zero. In other words, unless a clan intends to spread its branches and leaves, no one is willing to go.

Unless you can't survive, or the government forces immigration.

The thought of forced immigration made Emperor Chongzhen's heart skip a beat.

There will still be forced demolitions in later generations, why can't I force immigrants?

Being an emperor doesn't mean the constitution of heaven in his mouth, and he follows the law when he says it?The king wants the people to go, but the people dare not go?

But after thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen still denied his idea.

Of course, if you want to play forced relocation, this is not to say that you can't do it. After all, as the emperor, you have the willful capital.

However, forced relocation was a method used by Mite Qing when he played in Huguang to fill Sichuan. Emperor Chongzhen expressed that he was not interested.

After ordering people to disguise themselves, Emperor Chongzhen left the palace.

Emperor Chongzhen wanted to try how much Zhao Chunwan was capable of him - he could fool people into limping, and he had been the emperor for so many years, so it shouldn't be a problem to fool people to Liaodong, right?

But as soon as he left the palace, Emperor Chongzhen forgot that he wanted to fool people.

It's too troublesome to fool people, where can I have the pleasure of going to a restaurant to be chic?

With the intention of spying on information, understanding folk news and seeing if anyone could fool him, Emperor Chongzhen went to the restaurant again, and deliberately picked a restaurant that had nothing to do with Jinyiwei.

As for brothels and so on, it was impossible for Emperor Chongzhen to go there.

No matter how beautiful a gentleman is, can he compare to those beauties in the palace?

Then Emperor Chongzhen looked at the waiter in front of him in a bewildered expression: "No more beef?"

The waiter carefully apologized and said with a smile: "My lord, eating beef is against the law of the Ming Dynasty. Except for a few cows that occasionally fell to death or died of old age, where do you go to eat it? Don't worry, the shop really doesn't have beef ?”

Emperor Chongzhen, who was so sick, simply took out an ingot of silver from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "You take this silver, and you can find a cow that you can't think about and fall to death."

The face of the waiter in the shop changed again and again, and finally he rejected Emperor Chongzhen: "My lord, the government's investigation is tight these days, there is really no bull who dares to think about it!"

A scholar at the table next to him looked at Emperor Chongzhen's embarrassment, and said with a smile: "I don't know what to call this young master? I can't eat this beef recently."

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said: "Xiaoke Zhu Xiaosong, I have seen this brother. It's just that Xiaoke has just come to the capital not long ago, so I don't know this beef?"

The scholar said with a smile: "Xiao Ke Li Wenjue, I have met Brother Zhu. Some time ago, the government didn't need cattle, so it didn't matter if a few fell to death. Now the government is going crazy for cattle, so it is impossible to let you I took it and ate it."

Emperor Chongzhen showed an interested look on his face: "Didn't it be said that a group of healthy cattle came from the grassland a while ago? Now there are not enough?"

Li Wenjue said: "Even if there are a few more batches, it's not enough! Now, in order to let the people go to Liaodong, the imperial court has promised that everyone who goes to Liaodong will give a cow.

Although not many people are willing to go now, but what if they really go in the future?What if the court becomes cruel and turns one end into two ends?How can this cow be enough? "

After cursing secretly in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen asked: "So, the reason why the people don't want to go to Liaodong is because the court doesn't give them enough benefits?"

Li Wenjue said: "Yes, but not."

Seeing that Li Wenjue stopped talking, Emperor Chongzhen smiled at the waiter who had been waiting at the side: "Let's go and buy a few special dishes, and this young master's will be included in my account."

After giving orders to the waiter, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said to Li Wenjue: "Brother Li, would you like to have a drink with Xiao Ke?"

Li Wenjue said: "Brother Zhu is Gao Yi, Xiao Ke is respectful and obedient?"

After the two got together at the same table, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Brother Li just said yes or no, did you confuse Xiao Ke?"

Li Wenjue laughed and said: "Brother Zhu, to tell the truth, Xiao Ke also has a family member who is an official in the capital, but he also knows some unknown news. Today, I will talk to Brother Zhu nicely."

Emperor Chongzhen raised his wine glass and said with a smile, "Please!"

After the two had a drink, Li Wenjue said: "The land of Liaodong is the most important place in Shenyang. Although Liaoyang is the original capital of Liaodong, but Jiannu has been running Shenyang for many years, the center of gravity of Liaodong has shifted to Shenyang. Brother Zhu knows, right?"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded: "This is natural. Shenyang is now the largest city in Liaodong, and naturally it is the top priority of Liaodong."

Li Wenjue sneered and said, "But, that was nine years before Chongzhen, and nine years after Chongzhen, but that's not it."

Emperor Chongzhen naturally knew what was going on in his heart. Shenyang City was gone, and it was still the center of gravity of Liaodong.

Just complaining all kinds of things in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen asked again: "Would you like to hear the details?"

Li Wenjue said: "Your Majesty bombarded Shenyang City for several days in Liaodong, and then built slaves and massacred the city. Now the ghosts in Shenyang City cry at night, who dares to live there?"

After finishing speaking, Li Wenjue, who was still unsatisfied, continued: "Even if you don't mention Shenyang, the bitter cold in Liaodong alone is enough to scare away a group of people. It's good for the government to give land to cattle, but you have to live to enjoy it, right? ?”

Nodding his head, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Then according to Brother Li's opinion, how should the people go to Liaodong?"

After looking Emperor Chongzhen up and down, Li Wenjue said with a smile: "Come on, this kind of military affairs is not for you and me to discuss.

All the advantages and disadvantages of the military and civilians, only the system that does not allow students to make suggestions, did Brother Zhu forget? "

Emperor Chongzhen said indifferently: "How can you make a suggestion? It's just you and me drinking and chatting, how can it spread to the court?"

Li Wenjue smiled and said: "That's true. But according to Xiaoke, if people want to go to Liaodong, or even Nurgan Dusi, there are two ways. One is to coerce them, and the other is to lure them.

The so-called coercion means that the government forcibly selected households and selected people to go to Liaodong, even Java and Xinming Island.

Today, the emperor is relying on the prestige of pacifying Liaodong's great victory, even if the people are dissatisfied, how can they not be afraid of the sword?How many people you want to relocate is just a word from the government.

It's just that from Xiao Ke's point of view, the chance of this happening is less than a one-off chance.

As for luring them with profit, the benefits given by the imperial court were not enough. "

Emperor Chongzhen asked curiously: "Didn't Brother Li say yes and no just now? Why is it not enough to say now?"

Li Wenjue said: "Just now I said yes and no, but because the government has already given a lot of benefits. A household will give a cow, ten taels of silver, and a hundred acres of land. Such benefits have never been heard in the ages.
