This year……

This year is indeed a very difficult year for everyone.

1625.

Originally, this year in history, Lin Danhan had to attack Korqin to plunder livestock due to famine, and wild boar skin had to plunder south by large-scale plunder to solve the food shortage, and finally achieved the round-doudu myth at the beginning of next year.

It can be said that this is a year when the whole world is hungry.

In this case, it is not impossible to say that wild boar skin really has to take risks.

After all, North Korea really can't support him.

In fact, North Korea itself relies on Jeolla, the largest grain-producing area, and the grain transportation from Jeolla to Seoul was similar to the canal transport of the Ming Dynasty.

Luozhou is still in the hands of Li Jue.

After the massacre of the city of Quanzhou, the population loss was very serious. Although some of the Jianshu migrated there, it was difficult to recover in a short period of time. In order to restore his troops, he expanded the Eight Banners Korea and the Green Banner Army in large quantities. The former had a total force of more than 50,000, which was more than the genuine Eight Banners Manchuria. These Eight Banners Army had to support them. The current population of North Korea and the slaves they captured, and were still being attacked by Mao Wenlong, were really overwhelmed. When encountering such natural disasters again, there was no other choice except to take risks.

"He comes out if he has the courage!

It just happened that he would never return. At worst, I would go to Liaodong to solve him personally.

As for the easy-to-hand food.

After Niuzhuang thaws, I will transport at least 200,000 stones of rice to you as quickly as possible.

If there is no money for the flowers, then continue to lend him a loan. In short, the most important thing now is to stabilize him and Jin Taiji, and Lin Danhan doesn’t have to worry about it. As long as he doesn’t go east to cause trouble, it’s Bu Shitu’s job to go west.

There is no longer a person who lures wild boar skins from Jin Taiji.

You have to let him understand.

His silver mine is so big. The more people he tempted, the more he will be paid for. What's more, these people are fence-bearing. They used to surrender to wild boar skins. Now that wild boar skins cannot be raised, they will go to surrender to him. Aren't he afraid that these people will have too many people, and one day they will collude with wild boar skins and give him a magpie nest? Those who are not him after all, can he guarantee that those people will be in the same mind as him? If something happens, it will be too late to regret it. His current strength is enough to protect himself, so why should he continue to raise these extra people?

Does he like to give money to others?"

Yang Xin said.

Of course, the main thing is to prevent Jin Taiji from ambitions. The Yehe tribe has developed rapidly over the years. The total population has exceeded 50,000, and it can be used to increase more than 10,000.

If you develop further, you will easily develop ambitions.

What's more, many of the people he has tempted over the years are the original tribe leader level. These people originally rebelled with the wild boar skin. Those who are ambitious and fool him into learning wild boar skin will be troublesome. After all, Yehe's tribe was not honest back then, but when Jin Taiji's generation faced the threat of wild boar skin, they could only choose to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. But if Jin Taiji had any loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, it would be a joke.

Chen Yujie nodded.

This is also a must.

His silver refining in Kaiyuan has reached a bottleneck and has never been able to break through the limit of 400,000 taels.

The main thing is that there are not enough people.

The key to insufficient people is insufficient food.

Although he has opened up a lot of land in the local area, he is to cultivate sweet potatoes and sorghum, and at most he grows some corn. However, the corn yield is incomparable to the previous two. In recent years, he has started growing potatoes, but the potato yield at this time is also very low.

In the end, it still has to be transported within the pass.

Zhao Rujiao’s department was originally organized with 15,000 people, which was a completely full-time army. Mining in Jintaiji must have some delays in agricultural production and had to supply fried flowers. Similarly, the smelters and supporting miners in his place all had food for smelting coal. In the end, at least 300,000 shi were transported every year. In fact, the silver they produced was not enough to buy grain, but most of these grains were in the name of military rations, and the court paid the grain price and freight. Of course, those soldiers prefer to exchange grain for fried flowers to eat meat, but in any case, to maintain the stability of the Ming Mengyehe’s triangular alliance, at least 300,000 shi of grain would be transported every year.

Three hundred thousand stones this year are not enough, because a large-scale drought will sweep the outside world.

Grain production is inevitable.

A large number of livestock deaths are inevitable.

The population cannot be increased any further, because it is even less than enough to increase.

It was not easy for Yang Xin to transport grain to them. It was not that easy to transport 300,000 shi of grain from the Liao River. It was not that easy to transport 300,000 shi of grain. A small boat that could reach Kaiyuan would transport less than 100 shi, and a hundred ships would not necessarily transport 10,000 shi at a time.

In fact, there are a total of four hundred ships.

Yang Xin raised four hundred so-called ships on the Liao River.

They can travel seven times a year, and 300,000 stones are the limit.

In fact, Yang Xin couldn't make much money in Liaodong. Although he did share a lot of profits from Liaodong every year, all of them were used to support the shipping team.

Four hundred grain transport ships must have at least more than two thousand ships. The wages of these ship workers must be guaranteed to support the whole family. Moreover, this is a transportation upstream. An animal-powered fibre team along the coast must be ready for use at any time. In addition, a group of people must be responsible for the maintenance of the river along the route. Although the Liaohe River is open from Zhengjiatun, the natural waterway does not mean that there are no shoal obstacles, especially in such a drought era. Fortunately, safety is not necessary to be considered, otherwise this route will be protected by the army.

And all these are silver.

What's more, he not only had to transport grain from Niuzhuang to Kaiyuan, but also had to transport all the way from the south to the north. Although he sold one stone of rice to Jintaiji in Kaiyuan for four taels of silver, most of the profits were actually filled in the maintenance of this transportation line.

Of course, the effect is huge.

These rice made the Kaiyuan, Yehecheng, and the inner Khalkha tribes form a solid alliance.

Both wild boar skin and Lin Danhan were helpless with this alliance. After all, the core of the alliance's maintenance is actually food. Fried flowers and Jintaiji, which are insufficient in food, must rely on Yang Xin, and what they lack is also food.

"One more thing..."

Chen Yujie wanted to speak but stopped.

"What do I want to do in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"

Yang Xin said it for him.

Chen Yujie nodded.

"I don't want to answer for the moment, because even if I tell you the reason now, it's hard for you to believe it. I just want to say you can wait and see. In fact, there is no need to wait too long. Soon you will know that everything I have done over the years has been of great use."

Yang Xin said.

Nothing he said now is useless.

He said that starting from three years later, a devastating natural disaster will begin in the northwest, wandering throughout the Ming Dynasty for decades, destroying the country with a famine that has been barren for thousands of miles?

No one would believe his woman except his own.

Besides, even if you believe him, will the gentry change for this?

In their opinion, the Qing Dynasty's method is the simplest and most effective. Just kill all the people without food. Isn't it just a natural disaster. If tens of millions of people die, they will be able to solve it. If they don't die, their heads will be cut off and blood will flow. The world of gentry cannot be destroyed. So what if the people rebelled? Can't they use soldiers to suppress the enemy? As long as they can continue to maintain their singing and dancing on the bones of tenants and serfs, Ma Ge can become a saint lord and wise king, and our Dayuan can make them miss each other.

Chen Yujie didn't ask any more questions. He was just asking for his friends in his hometown.

It doesn't matter to him, the Chen family.

Anyway, no matter how hard Yang Xin makes, he will not treat him unfairly.

As for his friends in his hometown...

The friends in his hometown are already unable to bear it.

Jiangyin Red Bank.

"Go aside, what do you want to do? Rebel?"

Yang Huan shouted with a harsh look on his face.

In the ancient mansion behind him, a group of crying men, women, young and old were being taken out, and in the courtyard inside were full boxes, and on the pier outside were filled with boats.

This is Li Yingsheng's home.

His ancestors were actually Semi-men. When Hu Yuan was a general who was stationed here, he later surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and has been reproducing to this day. After at least two hundred years, Li Yingsheng could no longer see much of his ancestors. On the contrary, the Li family is still the top Confucian family in Jiangyin, and the family has countless books. I have to say that this is also very touching. His grandfather is also a disciple of Wang Yangming!

On the sixth day after the incident, the Li family was blocked by Yang Huan and his men, including Li Yingsheng and his uncles. Now, after learning that Li Yingsheng was convicted, they formally searched the house here.

"Li Yingsheng murdered the king and plotted against rebellion, and had already confessed and convicted. I came to search the house with orders. Don't mess around. It is illegal to attack the Jinyiwei!"

Yang Huan continued to scold him with a harsh and cowardly look on his face.

He is indeed fierce and weak on the inside.

Because at this time, there were a whole battalion of regiments outside the Li family, and even the chariots were arranged on both sides. Behind the shield walls of the chariots, the soldiers carrying turtledove guns treated each other coldly. Behind the shield wall, there was even a team of cavalry, with short guns hanging on their saddles.

And opposite is the cannon.

Although the muzzles of the four small thousand-pound red cannons were not aimed at them, they just turned their heads when needed.

This is Jiangyin Tuanlian, or Chang Jiejun.

"Yang Qianshi, we're just here to see if it's illegal, right?"

Xu Hongzu or Xu Xiake said opposite him.

Indeed, they just look at it.

Wearing a European half-body armor, a short gun and a knife, there were dense spears behind him, and infantry soldiers wearing European half-body armor were neatly arranged in a square array with their spears, and on both sides of the spear phalanx were musketeers with only breastplate on their bodies.

"I warn you not to do anything randomly, we are the Jinyiwei."

Yang Huan said with little confidence.

"Ha, Jinyiwei!"

Xu Xiake said contemptuously.
Chapter completed!
