    In the capital of the Ming Dynasty, in the study of Emperor Hongzhi in the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Hongzhi was discussing matters with several important ministers about the two provinces of Jiaozhi and Xianglin.

    Liu Jin and Zhang Mao played very well, but they still have to clean up the rest of the matter.

    "Your Majesty, we don't have enough manpower. There are more than 30 prefectures and more than 100 counties in the two provinces of Jiaozhi and Xianglin. Calculating, we need almost thousands of officials."

    Wang Hao, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, helplessly told Emperor Hongzhi that in the past, being an official had to endure hardship, especially for those who were promoted. If they failed to pass the Jinshi examination, they might not be able to hold an official position for the rest of their lives.

    But now the situation seems to be a bit special, because Ming Dynasty is expanding too fast, and this year's tax reform requires a large number of officials, so that now there is an embarrassing situation where no one is available.

    "During the Chinese New Year, didn't a lot of people be summoned to serve as officials?"

    Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while and asked.

    "Your Majesty, those have been distributed to Ryukyu, Nanyang provinces and tax bureaus in various places. Now there are no more people to be favored here in the capital."

    Wang Hao quickly replied.

    "That's not possible. Jiaozhi and Xianglin are new places for our Ming Dynasty. People's hearts here are floating. We, our Ming Dynasty, must send officials there as soon as possible. Only in this way can we calm people's hearts and consolidate our Ming Dynasty's rule here."

    When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he immediately shook his head and said.

    "Your Majesty, I think we might as well transfer local officials from the four provinces of Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Guangdong to serve in Jiaozhi and neighboring areas, and give them a little promotion."

    "These provinces are relatively close to Jiaozhi and Xianglin, and can be reached faster. In addition, they may be more adaptable to the conditions in these places, which can better consolidate our Ming Dynasty's rule in these two places."

    At this time, Liu Jian stood up and gave some advice.

    "This is a very good plan~"

    When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he immediately clapped his legs and said: "Just follow this method and transfer officials from Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Guangdong to Jiaozhi and Xianglin."

    "But in these two places, I know there are very few people. If I want to rule here for a long time, do you have any good ideas?"

    Hearing Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s words, everyone couldn¡¯t help but think deeply.

    This expansion is too fast, which is really not a good thing. These places are far away from the Ming Dynasty, and there are few Ming people. Even if they were conquered by force, it is not easy to rule here.

    "Your Majesty, I think we should use the old method and immigrate there."

    "Hundreds of thousands of people were moved from the Central Plains, and then we vigorously popularized Chinese civilization in Xianglin and Jiaozhi. As the saying goes, if the barbarians and Di come to China, they will be brought over by Huaxia; if the barbarians from China come to barbarians, they will be taken over by barbarians."

    "As long as we persist in long-term education, in dozens or hundreds of years, this place will definitely become our Chinese land, just like the Central Plains, and the people here will also become the people of China."

    Li Dongyang thought for a while and said.

    "Hmm~"

    Emperor Hongzhi also nodded slightly after hearing this. At present, it seems that there are only two ways. One is to change the population structure of these two places and increase the number of Ming people, and the other is to continuously educate them and turn them into our Ming people.

    The other ministers nodded after hearing this, and then Xie Qian thought for a while and said, "It's probably not an easy task to immigrate hundreds of thousands of people to Jiaozhi and Xianglin."

    "This year, another 500,000 people will be moved to Liaodong. If we continue to immigrate to these two places, I'm afraid the court's expenses will increase significantly, and the national treasury will be empty by then"

    ¡°Please rest assured, Mr. Xie, our Ming Dynasty¡¯s treasury is currently sufficient to support large-scale immigration.¡±

    Hearing Xie Qian's words, the Minister of Revenue, Ji Zhong, stood up, raised his head and spoke with his chest raised.

    Isn¡¯t it just money? Now the Ming Dynasty¡¯s treasury is full of money. After Liu Jin¡¯s tax reform, more than 7 million taels of tax silver are now paid to the treasury every month. This makes the Ming Dynasty¡¯s financial situation suddenly proud.  Twist, make a big difference.

    Now Zhong Zhong speaks very confidently. There is a lot of money, and it is much easier for various yamen to ask him for money. Now he is a little worried about how to spend the money.

    "Forehead¡­"

    Xie Qian was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he didn't know what to say.

    In the past, if Emperor Hongzhi wanted to do something, if he objected, he would almost always say that the treasury was empty and the court had no money, but now, the Ming court is very rich.

    There¡¯s a lot of silver.?It sounds very good, how about just calling it Dongbang?  "

    Liu Jian thought for a while and said.

    "Both of us, I think what Li Gong and Liu Gong said is true. The newcomers to our Ming Dynasty land are not yet educated. The students in these places must be young in their studies. It is a good idea to list them separately."

    Wang Hao thought for a while and expressed his support. This is the same as when the Ming Dynasty was founded and divided into north and south.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out out the students in the north could not pass the exam, so that students from the south dominated the exams, which made the students in the north extremely dissatisfied.

    Later, in order to consider the importance of the unification of the north and the south, Zhu Yuanzhang also separated the students from the north and the south and ranked them in the north and south, so that everyone had nothing to say.

    Now it is just a matter of referring to the North and South List, and setting up an East List to include these new provinces that entered the Ming Dynasty into the East List.

    "This policy is good, let's follow it and include Nanyang Province, Liaodong, Grassland, Xianglin, and Jiaozhi into the Eastern List."

    Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, great victory~great victory~"

    At this time, Xiao Huangmen came panting and shouted before anyone arrived.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
