Mystery Makes Me Strong
Chapter 2643: Crossing the River and Destroying the Bridge
And now, Emperor Jiajing succeeded in cultivating immortality.
He began to pay less attention to power tactics and began to arrange ministers, princes, and gentry at will.
However, he forgot that this would backfire.
Now he remembered.
He began to compromise with those ministers.
He could not compromise directly, so he returned to the color of the riddle man.
And the ministers also began to choose to compromise with him.
After all, if this continued, everyone would suffer great losses.
So the villagers began to know again:
"The emperor is not dead, it was a rumor before, and now it is still Jiajing."
And after this incident, Jiajing discovered his weakness:
The people were not directly controlled by him.
He knew this before, so he had to use power tactics to deal with those people.
Now he decided to use a more direct way.
Use immortal methods to solve the problem.
So a new round of oppression of the people began.
But he let go of the aristocratic families and those high-ranking officials.
But on this day.
Wenren Sheng and the other four had decided to show their true colors.
They could not tolerate Jiajing's messing around.
A typical feudal emperor, domineering at home.
Weak to the outside world.
It seems that he defeated a group of Japanese pirates, but everyone knows the background of Japanese pirates: a small number of hired tools, big pirates holding the majority, and local forces as the background.
And against the real enemy, the northern grassland, they were defeated again and again.
Until Qi Jiguang grew up.
"It is easy to kill Jiajing, but it is difficult to pacify the world, so we have to kill him and then pretend to be him, so as to cause as little turmoil as possible." Wen Rensheng said.
The other three nodded.
Then they began to design a set of methods.
If you want to kill the other party, you must lure him out.
How to lure?
"This is easy. He needs resources for cultivation, so make one up for him."
"What if he doesn't come out?"
"If he doesn't come out, as long as the people around him come out, it will be the same." Wen Rensheng said with a smile.
Soon.
The news that the ten thousand year elixir appeared on the mountain in the western suburbs of the capital spread.
Jiajing smiled when he heard it.
"What a ridiculous rumor, the elixir of a thousand years, it didn't exist ten years ago."
It was only the next piece of news that moved him.
"The elixir of a thousand years is fake, it is said that the imperial seal has been born, which can symbolize the people."
Jiajing had to take it seriously.
Because the jade disk with the words "received from heaven, longevity and prosperity" has been missing since the Han Dynasty.
After that, it was all remade.
The one in the Ming Dynasty was still robbed from the Yuan Dynasty.
But the one in the Yuan Dynasty is not really real.
So Jiajing immediately sent people to find it.
Of course, he also knew that this might be a trap.
So he sent a lot of people to design a trap to kill him.
However, he found that none of the people he sent had any news.
And the seal seemed to have really been born.
Because he found that his luck was slipping away.
It was obviously going to slip to another person.
This is not okay, this is a big problem.
He immediately sent out his most trusted eunuch, who was only half as good as him in cultivation.
He was in the foundation building stage.
The eunuch was already at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Then, nothing happened.
The eunuch was also destroyed.
"Damn it, who is it?"
Then he felt panic.
Because he suddenly found that the power that defended him was being lured away by others bit by bit.
He didn't take the bait.
But as a veteran, he lost his horses, carriages, artillery, soldiers and elephants, wouldn't that mean he would die?
Then, in the fear of Emperor Jiajing, the four rushed into the palace.
The masters in the palace were all captured.
Emperor Jiajing wanted to escape, but the skills he practiced were based on luck.
Leaving the palace and the capital, that means he has no luck.
It's like an emperor who leaves the capital can easily lose the throne.
Baozong is one of the most typical examples, and there are many other examples.
If you leave the capital, you will lose the hearts of most officials and people.
The possibility of them recognizing another emperor is greatly increased.
So Emperor Jiajing had to stick to it.
"This guy is still a bit difficult!" The novice man said seriously.
"He can't hold on for long. This guy has never fought a real monk battle and has always been high and mighty."
"Yeah, he actually ran away out of fear of pain?"
"It's ridiculous to hold on."
These people have all been through Wen Rensheng's hard training.
And it took a long time.
They also know how terrible the Lord God is.
Although the third Lord God is relatively merciful, the future war is cruel.
They are modern people after all, and they are still eliminated.
So after paying the price of several arms, they captured Jiajing.
And then turned him into a puppet.
"In this way, we can realize our plan."
"That's right, a qualified emperor should be a puppet."
"The emperor doesn't need to be replaced, but the cabinet should be replaced, but the cabinet can't be replaced too frequently."
"And if the emperor doesn't understand, don't interfere too much, just look at the results."
Just like Chongzhen, he changed repeatedly, but he couldn't grasp the root.
The most powerful savior was not used.
That's Sun Chuanting. Because this is a loyal minister who is likely to become a warlord.
Because he can sort out the occupied land and get military pay and food from these lands.
It's a pity that Chongzhen couldn't resist the pressure of these gentry's appeals, forcing him to fight a quick battle.
It's ridiculous.
This is not grasping the fundamental point.
Was it the time to take care of the emotions of the gentry?
Not at all.
He should have taken out a province and let Sun do his best.
Chongzhen was not confident and impatient.
To put it bluntly, he had never done anything from beginning to end and lacked patience.
Chongzhen failed in this way.
He failed miserably.
In contrast, Jiajing was very patient.
It's a pity that he met a group of gods.
Wen Rensheng's wisdom completely crushed him.
In this way, the four successfully captured Jiajing.
"What are you going to do? I am the emperor, the son of heaven, and the destiny of the Xian Dynasty!"
"Don't make mistakes!"
"Be careful of being punished by heaven!"
However, the four turned a deaf ear to it.
They didn't care about the emperor.
They directly replaced Jiajing, and then changed Jiajing's previous measures and cleaned up from the beginning.
The entire Ming Dynasty is still in a good momentum.
Because the lowest level can still survive.
At least 90% of people can survive.
They first figured out the performance evaluation system.
In fact, Jiajing had already developed a simple performance evaluation system.
But he was not in the mood to go deeper into it.
He still spent most of his time on cultivation.
He just found a group of people who were loyal to him every three years to serve as performance evaluation officials and conduct imperial examinations.
This kind of performance evaluation has great power, and it is equivalent to urging oneself to get up early.
The difficulty can be imagined.
Wen Rensheng used his golden finger ability and his own skills.
Then he began to conduct large-scale training.
College-based, industrialized training.
Trained a large number of students.
Then used the convenience of cultivating immortals to build a network of immortal arts.
Use the information network to build a new Ming Dynasty.
In other words, although the productivity of the Ming Dynasty was still that of an ancient society on the surface, it had entered the modern information age in terms of information exchange.
Under this powerful information exchange, the economy and various creative aspects have developed rapidly.
Just like in the Jiangnan area, people mainly pursued strange things.
The more peculiar, the more eye-catching.
Men wear all kinds of peculiar clothes and like all kinds of novel things. Western things are especially fashionable. This is reflected in Xu Guangqi and others who specialize in translating Western books. Many terms were defined at this time.
The terms in Geometry Elements have been used until modern times.
It can be said that these talents are the first to open their eyes, and there is little difference at this time.
Some systems are easy to introduce.
Unfortunately, these systems are not strong enough to replace the original Ming Dynasty and fight against the barbaric forces.
Wen Rensheng understands this very well.
And now, Wen Rensheng has solved this problem with a better system.
Rapid information exchange allows merchants to quickly capture business opportunities.
Then sell a large amount of materials to those places in urgent need.
This is a very convenient place.
It can quickly stabilize prices.
The next step is to greatly improve transportation.
After the information and transportation are improved, the next step is to work hard on food production.
Jiajing did relatively well before.
He found many kinds of high-yield crops directly from overseas, such as sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, high-yield rice...
These crops played a huge role later.
Energy is conserved.
In fact, the starch yield of these so-called high-yield crops is not much higher than that of wheat and rice. The most important thing is that they are relatively high-yield.
They can be planted in those barren and scattered plots, and are drought-resistant and barren.
For example, sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn can be planted in the fields and rotten dry land.
The water required is much less than that of wheat.
Even if the year is a little worse, there can be a harvest.
This greatly reduces the possibility of famine.
In fact, after promoting these crops, the population directly increased to twice the original.
This is a crop that directly increases the population limit.
It is conceivable that their yield is quite stable.
Otherwise, the population cannot grow steadily.
In bad years, a good return can be achieved.
This is something that staple foods such as wheat and rice cannot achieve.
Wheat and rice both need a lot of water and can only be grown on large flat land.
They also require a high level of fertility.
Of course, the reason why they have persisted to the modern era and squeezed out other grains is very simple.
Their growth pattern is highly compatible with agricultural machinery.
Their ears are on their heads, so wheat and rice are easy to harvest and plant.
Unlike other crops, corn is not easy to harvest, much more troublesome than wheat, and threshing is also troublesome.
Needless to say, sweet potatoes and potatoes require more complex agricultural machinery.
However, this was not a problem in feudal society.
And corn is more drought-resistant.
With sweet potatoes, potatoes and the like, the people could survive the disaster years.
In short, there was an agricultural revolution first, and then an industrial revolution. If agriculture could not be done, no matter how well the industrial revolution was done, it would be useless.
In textbooks, only the industrial revolution is emphasized.
It seems that once industrialization is achieved, the people will have food to eat.
This is nonsense.
In fact, the premise of the industrial revolution is to first obtain sufficient food from the colonies, squeeze out the agricultural population, and turn them into mobile labor, so that industrialization can be achieved.
Because food has become a bulk commodity and can fully meet the needs, the people are no longer self-sufficient and need to sell their labor to become part of industrialized production.
The green revolution in the colonies came from the reclamation of a large amount of land, the use of mules and horses, and the innovation of modern fertilizer technology.
In this way, industry and agriculture promote each other and reach a balance.
If there is no food revolution, blindly engaging in industry will only starve to death.
Agriculture is always the root of the root.
And this point is not deliberately explained.
Only by solving the food problem can other problems be solved.
Therefore, under the arrangement of Wen Rensheng and others, compared with the entire era, the entire Ming Dynasty has become very advanced and the economy is very developed.
When other forces are still in famine, the Ming Dynasty has entered the era of obesity.
It has begun to promote healthy living.
Many people dream of living in the Ming Dynasty.
"Being a dog in the Ming Dynasty is better than being a human here." This is the idea of many people.
After all, dogs in the Ming Dynasty could eat enough for more than ten years.
They could live freely without worrying about starving to death.
In other places, they may have never eaten enough since they were born.
The main task of rebuilding the Ming Dynasty can be said to be basically successful.
However, the remaining is the key problem.
It is not difficult to create a prosperous era.
The difficult part is to keep it going.
And the task requires it to last for more than 500 years.
There are higher rewards for continuing for 5,000 years.
This is a bit difficult.
The first 100 years of prosperity.
Everyone is very happy.
Everyone is very happy.
Tributes were paid from all directions, and they all requested to be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty.
Grasslands, plateaus, deserts, and islands all chose to submit.
Then after the second 100 years.
New problems emerged.
People who were well fed and well-drinking began to raise new questions.
"Why can't my son cultivate to the foundation-building stage?"
"Yes, why are there so few cultivation resources distributed?"
"The resources are all monopolized by the upper class!"
"We must rebel. For the sake of our descendants, we must take back the resources they have taken away!"
In this way, a huge rebellion movement began.
The participants were mainly old men over 80 years old.
The motivation for the rebellion was for their grandchildren.
There is a saying that grandfathers love their grandchildren the most.
They scolded and beat their sons, but they loved their grandchildren the most.
"For our grandchildren, we must take back these cultivation resources."
"We are old and can't do it anymore. We can't let our grandchildren repeat the same mistakes!"
These old rebels attacked all the way and were invincible all the way.
No one wanted to fight them.
After all, there is a habit there, respecting the old and loving the young.
What's more, the old men were for their grandchildren, which made the soldiers feel that this was for their own good.
Everyone was naturally unwilling to put in the effort.
In short, a group of old men soon began to attack the capital.
When four people saw this scene, three of them were very angry.
Wen Rensheng thought it was normal.
The novice man was very angry:
"100 years ago, you could give up everything to have enough food."
"Now you have everything, and you still want to rebel?"
"What do you mean the emperor crosses the river and destroys the bridge? You common people will do the same after crossing the river!"
