- With Feng Shiyong, a typical example of being killed as a chicken, being shown to many frontier officials present, the ensuing debriefing meeting completely changed.
Each of the feudal officials began to talk about what they had done during their tenure, how much the population had increased, how much tax they collected every year, what plans they had for the future, etc.
There are indeed many practical officials among them who have done a lot of things.
Liu Jin was impressed by the fact that he was an official from Huangjinzhou. During his tenure, he actually started building Huangjinzhou's first railway.
This is a railway connecting Penglai City and a port city on the east coast of the Pacific, running through the east and west of Huangjin Continent. With this railway, it will become more convenient to travel from the east coast to the west coast of Huangjin Continent.
Although the railway construction has been vigorously carried out in the Ming Dynasty, there is no plan for the Ming Dynasty overseas.
¡°I didn¡¯t expect that railway construction has already begun in Huangjinzhou.
You must know that building railways is not building concrete roads. The investment in building railways is very huge. It costs 50,000 taels of silver to build one mile of road. This is still in the plains and the cost is high.
¡°Without funding from the Ming Dynasty or raising funds through listing on the Tianjin Stock Exchange, it would have been difficult to raise enough funds to build the railway.
¡°But here in Golden Continent, this official actually raised enough funds to start building the first railway in Golden Continent. He was able to talk and fool the kings of the Aztec Kingdom and Inca Empire into investing in building this railway.
In addition, this official was able to combine the situation of Huanghuangzhou and strongly encourage the Han people to take the indigenous women of Huangjinzhou as concubines, which greatly eased the relationship between the Han people and the local indigenous people, promoted mutual integration, and consolidated the Ming Dynasty's rule over various parts of Huangjinzhou. , more and more indigenous tribes in Huangjinzhou accepted the rule of the Ming Empire here.
Of course, the most important thing is that because of this policy, the population of Huanghuangzhou has skyrocketed. A Han will often have dozens of children in just a few years. As long as these children grow up, the Ming Dynasty will have more control over Huanghuangzhou. Control will be stronger and development deeper.
Rather than like now, although Golden Continent belongs to the Ming Empire, because there are so few people in Golden Continent, most of the areas cannot be developed and are still in the hands of tribes descended from the Yin Shang.
In addition, there was Zhong Fan, the chief minister from Guangdong. He also left a deep impression on Liu Jin. In the past few years, he had vigorously introduced investment and concentrated manpower and material resources to build ports. Attract more people to build factories, build commercial banks, carry out port trade, etc. in Guangdong.
You must know that Guangdong at this time and Guangdong in later generations are completely different concepts.
In later generations, Guangdong was the largest province, far surpassing other provinces in terms of population, economy, and other aspects.
But in this era, Guangdong is definitely an unknown little brother. Not only is it not as good as Fujian around it, but it is also far behind Huguang and Jiangxi in the north.
Whether it is population, economy or other aspects, among the provinces in the Ming Dynasty, Guangdong is considered a very backward place. After all, it has been said since ancient times that Lingnan is a miasma-ridden and barbaric land. As for Qiongzhou, it has been said since ancient times. They are all places where prisoners are exiled.

That is to say, in later generations, because of the coastal areas and the support of policies, Guangdong took off and became the big brother. 牺如 xindingdianxsw.com 牺ࣳ 4
But the situation in Ming Dynasty is completely different now.
First of all, the Ming Dynasty¡¯s earliest route to Southeast Asia was through Ryukyu and Luzon, which perfectly avoided Guangdong. After years of development, Ryukyu has become much stronger than Guangdong.
Not only are there a large number of plantations, the cane sugar industry is very developed, but now the shipbuilding industry in Ryukyu is also beginning to rise. Tianjin Shipyard has set up a branch factory in Ryukyu. Driven by it, other local industries in Ryukyu are also developing rapidly.
More and more ports are being built, relying on geographical advantages, trade is extremely prosperous.
Guangdong is miserable. Without the advantage of this route, there would be far fewer ships traveling to and from Guangdong. In addition, there is no foundation in the first place, not even Ryukyu.
In the Nanyang region to the south, several provinces in Nanyang used cattle for farming. Now they have become the granary and sugar warehouse of the Ming Dynasty, and the plantation economy is incomparable.?? Mi
There are also people who are similar to Feng Shiyong. They cross their legs and continue to behave like traditional officials. They guard good places but have not achieved any political achievements.
There were also people who wanted to deceive the superiors and deceive the superiors with lies, but they were exposed on the spot and were dismissed on the spot; there were also some corrupt officials who were imprisoned on the spot by Emperor Hongzhi's order. in.
This is the purpose of the debriefing meeting. It is to talk about the past and plan for the future. It is also beneficial to the emperor and the imperial court to control these frontier officials in various places. It is appropriate to kill the chicken to show the monkeys and also to give a warning to these frontier officials. , don¡¯t think that Emperor Tiangao can¡¯t do anything to you even if he is far away, and he will remove you at any time if you fail, in order to consolidate Ming¡¯s rule over the entire huge territory.
Officials came forward one after another to report on their duties. Many of them were covered in cold sweat after coming down. A dozen officials who did not do anything were dismissed on the spot. Officials who did well were promoted and rewarded on the spot
