Chapter 625 From the newly married to the white head, witness the great changes in the thirty years of the apocalypse

"Because there are many smokers on the market now, this imported thing is really magical! Once you suck this thing, you are very addicted. After being addicted, if you don't suck for a while, you will feel itchy all over your body and be irritated. If you are in a bad mood, you will be even more inseparable from sucking this thing!"

"Also, the master of our machinery factory has also developed a new cigarette machine that can make an extremely exquisite cigarette, which we call it cigarette."

As Bi Ziyan said, he took out a box of cigarettes and placed them in front of Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty, please see, this is this thing! Is it more elegant?"

Zhu Youxiao took a look at the cigarettes that were already compared to later generations, but had no filters. He said: "Wrap it in white paper and print some fancy patterns, which is indeed more beautiful, but it is an addictive thing after all."

As he said that, Zhu Youxiao asked again: "I have issued an order to strictly prohibit Wuxiang. You will not mix Wuxiang in. Once that thing is sucked, it will be very harmful and difficult to quit. It will harm my future in China."

"Don't worry, this is just tobacco and I dare not violate the ban. I have tried it and can still quit if I have to quit this tobacco. In addition, Wuxiang can be banned now. This tobacco has indeed been widely used by the people because of its widespread cultivation. It is not as good as reclaiming it for the benefit of the country."

Bi Ziyan said.

At this time, Gong Yonggu couldn't help but stretch his hand into the box and picked up a cigarette.

Bi Ziyan immediately glared.

Gong Yonggu hurriedly threw away the cigarette and smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Bi is right. If you don't take it as an official profit, it would be a pity!"

Zhu Youxiao saw it, nodded, and asked Gong Yonggu: "Are you really addicted?"

"I had already smoked enough before the meeting, but now I see it and subconsciously want to pick up one. Your Majesty, why don't you try it? I will order it for you?"

Gong Yonggu said that, he took out the mature matchbox that the Ming Dynasty had produced and said, "It's good to smell it on the side."

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand: "No need!"

Then, Zhu You proofread Bi Ziyan and said, "Let's talk about oil."

"Yes! The R&D Institute of our Datong Machinery Factory is trying to use the oil from Shen Kuo in "Mengxi Bitan" as automobile fuel. There are some conclusions. Therefore, I think that this oil may be like coal in the future, and it is the resource that our Ming Dynasty needs the most, and should be controlled as an official advantage!"

Bi Ziyan replied.

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao said to Lu Xiangsheng and Wen Tiren: "I will also write it down. After returning to Beijing, I will prepare for this matter. Then, Bi Aiqing and relevant personnel will come to Beijing again and discuss this matter together."

"Abide by the order!"

Then, Zhu Youxiao took Bi Ziyan to the factory outside and started shopping. While walking, he talked about his old days with Bi Ziyan and exchanged greetings:

"This time I came to Jiangnan for the second time and found that the people of Ming Dynasty still do not have the idea of ​​expanding outward. They still focus on their own eyes and want to gain wealth growth by freely exploiting their own people.

The actions of some scholars in Jiangnan made me see this clearly. Therefore, in the future, the court must take action on its own to make profits from the outside and to make a fortune in the country! You cannot count on the people!"

"The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, a prosperous population, and is extremely rich. The consumption of the powerful and bureaucrats alone is not comparable to that of overseas countries. The wealthy businessmen of the private sector are naturally more willing to make money in the country, but are not willing to go far away. In addition, the geographical environment has caused the habit of our Ming people for thousands of years. To relocate and expand outside, it is something that is forced to do when they are forced. In this case, it cannot be changed overnight. It is indeed necessary to rely on the court to organize it. It is difficult for the people to expand outside in an unremitting manner."

Bi Ziyan replied.

"Well! Then it seems that they are willing to be proactive only when the outside world becomes our local area and the locals become our Han territory!"

Zhu Youxiao said in a solemn manner.

...

"Kill them all! No one is left! If you don't accept Chineseization, you are not worthy of living in this world!"

In the Mengmi area of ​​Myanmar, Ma Xianglin, who was granted the title of the chieftain here for his merits, and promoted the policy of sinicization for the imperial court, was ordering that all local stubborn people who refused to be sinicized and resisted and went to the mountains to become bandits.

The Ming Dynasty had too many populations. In the Mengmi area ruled by Ma Xianglin, there were many Han and Miao people who came here from the southwest to engage in mining, and Dai people.

Moreover, there are many local natives who have already accepted the Chineseization, so the labor force is very abundant, so naturally there is no need to keep these people who refuse to Chineseization.

Ma Xianglin did this to implement the emperor Zhu Youxiao’s request, that is, to promote Chineseization in the newly occupied areas to achieve the unification of civilization.

The Ming Dynasty is still dominated by the state and is promoting the expansion of civilization.

Because the civilian automatic expansion does not have strong force and sufficient motivation, even after expansion, there is still no ambition to merge the local area.

Just like a powerful local force like Zheng Zhilong in history, he had the capital to compete with the court, but he was still willing to accept the court's pacification and become a small guerrilla general. Later, he even gave up his armed forces, surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and even took the initiative to go to Beijing, which ended up with a bad end.

After talking to Bi Ziyan and leaving Jiangnan, Zhu Youxiao issued a new decree, which required officials in the newly opened territory to continue to exert their power to the court and carry out more active civilized expansion and resource plunder.

Undoubtedly, this will allow Ma Xianglin to implement a stricter Chineseization policy in his Mengmi area next.

"Master, my ancestor is seriously ill. You might as well ask the court to allow you to go back to Sichuan and take a look. I'll stay here."

But when Ma Xianglin received the latest instructions from the emperor, he also received a letter from home, and his wife Zhang Fengyi said something beside him.

"good!"

Ma Xianglin nodded his head, and took his wife into his arms, instructed: "Remember not to be ruthless. When the disobedient ones are eliminated, we who have not yet been assigned to the fields will come here to divide the fields."

"Well, don't worry!"

Zhang Fengyi smiled.

Ma Xianglin kissed the wife who had a lot of white hair in front of him.

Since the beginning of the Apocalypse and the newlyweds, they entered Beijing to participate in the formation of the first powerful force around Emperor Zhu Youzhai.

Until now, when they were old, they were guarding the new kingdom for the empire. The two of them were holding hands together and witnessing the vicissitudes of the Tianqi Dynasty over the past 30 years.

Ma Xianglin did not expect that one day, he would travel thousands of miles of battlefields throughout his life, enduring the cold cold in the extreme north and fighting with the Cossacks, and also leaping over the cliffs with the hot jungle and the earth man. He also rode a horse for thousands of miles, chasing the sun alone to the sunset.

When he received permission from the court and returned home, he saw that he and his relatives and friends had fought in the past, and the steel knives in their hands had been chopped into pieces of Han area. Many major transportation roads had become prosperous towns. At some point, many Han people suddenly appeared here doing business or opening various workshops.

Ma Xianglin knew that he had not entered Yunnan yet, but he felt like he had returned to Middle-earth.

And for this, he couldn't help but smile and was more convinced that His Majesty the Emperor had to use the power of the court to promote the Chineseization in the newly opened areas.

"Duke Chengguo is seriously ill! Next, I will change my way to Sichuan and will not return to Beijing for the time being."
